This bonus pilot “variety” puzzle snakes its way around the grid twice, with overlapping entries
— something new this week to exercise your brain.
In a snake charmer, each entry begins in the correspondingly numbered square and snakes around the grid,
and ends in the square immediately before the next number in order.
After the first circuit, entries overlap earlier entries; the final entry of the second circuit ends just before 1.
