Reverse Word Search

This is like a word search in that the words can go up, down, diagonally and backwards. However, you have to solve the clues in order to find the words which go in the grid.

When you solve a word, locate the starting position using X and Y co-ordinates as you would in in Mathematics. (X is horizontal Y is vertical). The write in the word in the direction shown by the arrow next to the clue. Look at the example SCALE.
