Hi Strands fans. It took me a while to get started today, but when I found NOSY written down the left-hand side, everything became clear.
I quickly spotted EAVESDROPPING, which occupied most of the top-right corner, and left a clear path for the spangram of BUSYBODY.
Three answers were left to find in the bottom section of the board. PRYING was in the bottom-left corner, with SNOOPY to its right. That just left INQUISITIVE above it to complete the puzzle.

“Any relation?”

Hi Strands fans. I was a bit slow out of the blocks today, requiring two clues to get started.
These revealed BLOOD down the left-hand side and the somewhat archaic KINFOLK along the top.
With those answers revealed, the rest became a bit easier. I found BRETHREN in the middle of the board, which helped me get the spangram of FAMILYTIES which ran all the way from the top-left corner to the bottom right.
That left two answers to find in the remaining gaps. OFFSPRING was written in an inverted 'L' up the right-hand side, with ANCESTORS in the bottom-left corner to complete the puzzle.
