This is “King Fordward”, returned from exile after four and a half years to challenge you all once more.
Here we are on week one.
I’m a wee bit reluctant to take on the mantle of setter as I seem to be short of time these days (roll on the winter and I can slow down), so we must thank Gen2 for doing the hard bits. Here we go:
As I said many years ago I am only a common worker, no degrees or fancy titles other than that temporarily bestowed on me by Crofter and gen2.
After a 60's childhood, I did 15 years in the RAF (ground crew) then 20 odd years on the farm and finished up as a landscape gardener. I've been married now for 45 years, had three children and now have two grandchildren who are 18 and 16. I like to play a bit of bowls in the summer and carpet bowls in the winter. I also like to travel when I can with my good lady but that’s for another day.
Now there's at least four subjects there so what more of a hint could you ask for?

No best answer has yet been selected by gen2. Once a best answer has been selected, it will be shown 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 To make a new longer word or to make a well-known phrase or saying. The combination will never be a person's name.
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.
