after filling in the trivial squares, i did some hypotheticals with the 7s by putting my fingers on the paper to show where the slots would be filled, the first place i put my fingers didn't yield anything promising either way, but the second place, the 2nd row 3rd column, if i hypothetically filled that one in, then all of the 7s would be forced to be filled in, so i coloured those in partially lightly to see where it would take me, and that was enough to fill in the rest of the board.
