Helpful Hints
- 'Leads to' is our indicator — it tells us to take the first letter from multiple neighbouring words (multiple because 'leads' is plural - we need more than one leading letter).
- Our fodder is 'food arriving unusually late today'. We'll need to use (some of) these letters, as directed by the indicator(s).
- The definition is 'Server's mistake'. Our answer will be a server's mistake, but we'll need to stop thinking about food to find this one.
