MM & KM Links January 2008 [Week 4]

[gen2]

Have you all seen crofter's post below?

http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Quizzes-and-Puz zles/Question512452.html

It explains why I am still overseeing the MM Links Game. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say we all empathise with you crofter and we are sad that there is only one inevitable way the situation will be resolved. Be strong.

--------------------------------

This is a special day devoted to 'The Bard' (not to be confused with the 'Lesser Bard' or 'Bard of Avon'). After the grace,

Some hae meat and cannot eat.
Some cannot eat that want it:
But we hae meat and we can eat,
Sae let the Lord be thankit.

. . . and once the haggis has been piped in, I ask you to charge yor glasses with a fine malt and be upstanding for a toast:- "The Haggis!". I'll be compassionate though, and spare you the full eight verses of 'Address to a Haggis'.

'Oh yes!', I thought there was something else to mention this evening: 'This is Queen Pauline's fourth and final week on the throne for the MM Game'. Tomorrow morning Queen Pauline will challenge you to pair words with four of her own - what they are is for me to know and you to find out.

Each week has favoured different players with the result that there are four probable contenders for the February crown. However, it is still possible for an outsider to take the honours, so to be in with a chance, make sure you take part in tomorrow's game. Will it be Strix, ulysses100, Magyar or fordward? Or could it be you?

Great....some of the words were good too....or didn't you read them

[Strix]

As I am away from the fray will you this for tonight:

To Irn Bru

Woke up with sweat upon my breastie,
Ma heid was sair, my breath a' yeastie,
Had been a night of drams and gin,
Dancing an reelling in an awfie din,
Gawking at limmers and getting fu,
May the lord be thankit fur Irn Bru.

by Magnus Mcdermid

moi, greetin' fu

(PS Pauline - there was no attachment with your last email)

[sarumite]

Now Pauline ... what did you say those links are? Just whisper so the rest of them can't hear!!

[Alibobs]

Pauline

And now all his music's been canned?????


X Ray, that joke was so bad it was good

Am waiting to do my usual Friday night taxi run, daughter split up with b friend but it's now back on, I was hoping she would find someone who lives within walking distance!!

[sarumite]

There was a young lady named Pauline,
Whose link words were really appalling!
The shrubbery crowd
Were never allowed
To see them 'til Saturday morning

(S) :O(

[x-ray]

Pauline you haven't given us a clue as to what tomorrows words are - or have you ? There has certainly been a Scottish flavour tonight, I think Rabbie Burns would have approved

[x-ray]

I liked that one sarumite - very good

[Alibobs]

S, that's plagiarism!!!! I once started a limerick with those two lines!!!!

[sarumite]

Are you sure Alibobs .. if so it must be that great minds think alike!! ☺

[Alibobs]

Pauline, I sent you another limerick last week, didn't you like it?
