“The feeling is mutual”

Hi Strands fans. A pretty straightforward one today, and in fact I was kicking myself for caving and using a clue so quickly.

That clue revealed MESH, and with the theme of "The feeling is mutual", it was pretty clear that this was about geling with another person.

With that in mind, I quickly connected VIBE below it and CONNECT in the bottom left-hand corner. I then got RELATE in the bottom right, and AGREE in the top left.

I found CLICK just below that, which then helped me get the spangram of GETALONG below it. That just left HARMONIZE to unpick and complete the puzzle.
