MM Links January 2011 Week 1

This is “The Court Jester”

It has been said that if you stick enough monkeys in front of type-writers and keep them all typing away for long enough, after thousands of years one of them will replicate a Shakespeare play. I have my doubts about the logic of this, but for the last 5 years this Court Jester has had ideas above her station and has been trying to emulate the clever antics of those who sit above the salt. And even if a masterpiece didn’t emerge last month, her endeavours were considered to have some merit and she has been given the opportunity to try to entertain the Court and its guests for the month of January. After all the eating, drinking, merry-making and other shenanigans that have gone on here over the last month I’d hoped to have a bit of a rest while the boss’s family & friends recover from all their extravagant over-indulgence.

But it’s going to be a busy month. Yesterday we had the last of our Christmas visitors: 3 kings from foreign lands bearing foreign gifts. Of course none of them were for me, although I had to do a ‘thanking’ routine in front of the whole court after the drummers had finished all that drumming. The gold was particularly welcome and the ladies liked the frankincense but no-one seemed very keen on the myrrh.

I got some nice things too – nothing flashy, but considered suitable to my position here:

According to normal practice, for the everyday running of MM, I shall follow this rule on word length, in that each of my pre-selected link words contains at least four letters and at most eight letters. Stray outside this range and you will be wasting one of your attempts!

Each of the selected link words may go in front of, or behind my challenge word.
The competition will officially close on Sunday Evening at 7.00pm, when gen2 will declare my pre-selected words and then apply the same rules for awarding points that have been applied during all MM Link Games in the past. My set of four words to have their links predicted should appear below at 9.00am.
