Mm Links April 2014 Week 1
43 Answers
This is 'Lady Jill' (aka tearinghair) posting this introduction by proxy (gen2) because I am currently asleep in California.
I’m on my (more or less) two-yearly visit to the family in USA. It’s particularly exciting this time because it’s my first visit to their new house; they moved from northern California down to the Los Angeles area eighteen months ago. So when I’m home again I shall have a precise picture in my mind of the layout of the house and its surroundings; to be able to Skype is wonderful, but it doesn’t fill in all the details in the same way as an actual visit. It will be interesting to see how the neighbourhood compares with their previous one; the community spirit in Sunnyvale was quite the best I have ever come across – absolutely amazing.
The one fly (sorry!) in the ointment is the fact that it involves air travel. I’m a nervous flyer at the best of times, and recent events have brought home very clearly the risks involved; we all feel the agony of the waiting relatives and friends. But it remains the safest form of travel, and if I want to see the family there’s no other realistic option. Circumstances have meant that I haven’t been able to travel as much as I’d have liked since retirement, so I wasn’t going to pass up this chance.

I remind you that 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.
