Mm Links March 2013 Week 2
45 Answers
This is 'Queen Kay' (aka evsajo) here again,
Morning all,
Just over a year ago my daughter and her friend took over a shop in Lichfield and launched The Sewing Shop , which, as the name suggests, is a haberdashery shop. It was not a new shop and had been there for years but was becoming very run down and did actually close for 2 weeks. In those 2 weeks the girls took over the lease and spent every waking hour painting, moving furniture, buying as much stock as they could afford and looking for fixtures and fittings on ebay etc.
It is now a thriving business, light and bright with colourful window displays. Inside there are bright displays of all types of wool, fabrics, cottons and buttons, not all on uniform shelves but on a 'shabby chic' Welsh dresser and even on a set of wooden steps !! They have also branched out into workshops during and after shop hours, such as a ”knit and natter afternoon”. Two weeks ago, they had their first all day workshop (Sunday 10am to 4pm) teaching how to make patchwork quilts, and they now have a waiting list for the next one!!!
So many small businesses are shutting down in Lichfield that it is so good to see one that is going from strength to strength.

No best answer has yet been selected by evsajo. 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.
