Visual Description:  A gabbing bather.

THERB  =  BERTH, TOBAB  =  ABBOT,  RADACE  =  ARCADE,  TRAULB  =  BRUTAL —   Giving us:  BHBBAAEBTL

Clue/Question:  This can be relaxing after a hard day at the office.

Answer:  A “BABBLE“ BATH

(My paper didn’t have quotation marks, so I added them myself.   Nice clue words.  I had some trouble getting “brutal”, which is ironic because shoveling snow today was brutal.  That’s why this is so late.  I never got an actual newspaper, and I shoveled pretty much all day long, with just a couple of breaks.  I finally was able to log on to the online version.  Be good, guys.)   — YUR
