No giant puzzles to distract me today sadly.

Today's GAPP is a Tapa-Like Loop!

Rules: Draw a non-intersecting loop through the centers of some empty cells. Clues represent the numbers of consecutive cells occupied by the loop each time it enters the (up to) eight cells surrounding the clue, in no particular order.
