I wondered if 'Mini' was the key. I immediately tested the new hypothesis against the other clues. Mini Bus, Mini Golf, Mini Fridge, Mini Skirt. It was a perfect match for every single word. The solution was a linguistic one: a single word that precedes all the clues. This breakthrough made the entire puzzle feel incredibly clever and the solution, once found, satisfyingly simple.
