MM & KM Links January 2008 [Week 2]

[gen2]

Well, wasn't it exciting last weekend? Who'd have thought it? - a clean sweep by Magyar in a difficult game with few matches elsewhere. Now everyone is thinking, "Can he do it again?". More to the point though, 'If Magyar can do it, then anyone can'. There's nothing to it really, just let your mind go blank and enter the first thing that comes into Pauline's mind. If you can't do that, then you'll just have to resort to the usual tricks of bribery and corruption ;-)


A word of caution: It is probably best to avoid entering the shrubbery via the bridge over the river incase you disturb the trolls sleeping beneath.


As usual, the bonus points will be there for the taking as you crawl sleepy eyed from the shrubbery at 9:00 am tomorrow and remember that the thread will be opened by Psychic Pauline at about 8.45 in the morning. The MM Link Game should then be officially launched by Queen Pauline when she posts her four words to be linked at 9.00am. Then it is up to yourselves.


The international version of this same game is called KM Links and kicks off somewhat earlier once the crossword clues have been solved. Look out for seekeerz from Oz who provides the entertainment, refreshments and rule of law when dealing with that parallel game. In this case, the choice of words and their links are out of our control. They are the grey words chosen by Kate Mepham in her GK Crosswords in the Daily Telegraph on Saturday and Monday!


Enjoy your weekend folks.

[sarumite]

I can only see the usual unfathomable mind of a woman .. if I guess just one link correctly it would be a major achievement!!

[paulineward]

Sarumite....you should guess me better than anyone!!!

[sarumite]

I'm afraid the time has come for me to toddle off ..
perhaps the links will come to me in my sleep .. now that IS sad!!

[evsajo]

just popped in to see if anyone is still around and to see what you've been up to. I am sleeping in the study on the sofa bed as I have the dogs and theyr'e not allowed upstairs, but guess what is next to my bed...the desk with the computer!!!!. This was originally my bedroom (like a granny annex with en suite) but Nicky ansd Stu have had a new kitchen and altered the lay out but even though it's the study its a lovely room.
Will be able to do the links from my bed tomorrow. No chance with Sam and Joe coming to wake me!!!!
Looks as if everyone is in bed so Goodnight all see you tomorrow

[paulineward]

I'm not Kay!!...great to see you!
You should read my mind if I read yours!!
What a day for you!!

[paulineward]

Will be going up soon Kay..so I am up to post at 8.45...prompt!!

[evsajo]

Goodnight Pauline see you tomorrow.love Kay

[kettledrum]

Gosh! What a party .. now you've all gone to bed, I can execute my cunning plan ....

[Dustybun]

dammit! Done it again! I arrive and they've all gone to sleep. Honestly, some people have no stamina!!!! :0)
