MM & KM Links February 2008 [Week 4]

[gen2]

Goodness me, week four already and the last chance for King Fordward to bamboozle you all with his choice of words. So far he has been doing a lot of reminiscing and we'll have to wait until the morn's morn to know if this is still the case or whether he will be bringing us up to date. The leadership board has been in a state of flux all month, currently showing freebi2 at the top but closely chased by ladyalex, Dustybun, evsajo, Jools & sarumite. Will one of those gain the crown? Or could an outsider come good with multiple hits? Whatever happens, it promises to be an exciting finish.

Now I have some news for you all - crofter is coming back. He will be resume control of this game as soon as I announce the results on Sunday evening. Whether he will gain control over you lot remains to be seen, but you don't want to incur the wrath of crofter. To that end I am looking for volunteers to tidy up the shrubbery and remove all evidence of revelry and debauchery. We also need someone to organise things and someone to get you all going. I think I know just the person:- "Cooee Pauline, are you around tonight?".

[Strix]

Pauline, hands, marigolds,fairly liquid, brillo pads, washing up bowls - forget it. Answer:

Buy 2 dishwashers. One waits to be filled up with the dirties. The other, having been run, is full of clean. You take as you need from the clean and then put the dirty plates in the other machine, when full you run that machine. Result, you always have a machine full of clean plates and one machine waiting to wash the dirties. Bonus is you never need to put any crockery or cutlery away.

Simple

[Meg]

Pauline, you'll get Grandkids eventually! Mine belong to my eldest, he's 40 next year, the youngest is still at Uni, middle one is getting married next year.

[x-ray]

Yes I like that strix.
Pauline, of course you set the words last month and Fordward came out the winner.
I think tomorrows link words will be
Vets
Hoovers
Grandchildren (more that 8 letters though)
Dogs

[evsajo]

Pauline how can you say I am mad? I was given a sample bag of microwave popcorn in Morrisons today and have just done it and have ended up eating the whole bagful, accompanied with a glass of Baileys. Now surely that's a very sensible thing to do at 11.20pm on a Friday night.!!!!

[paulineward]

Strix...saves on cupboar space I suppose...and you could get rid of sink!!

missmeg...I dream of them one day!! My eldest two have Special Needs so I have my hands full there...and my youngest is quite rightly so full of what life has in store for her...I shall have to be patient and spoil my great nephew and neice!!

Ironic really...cos all the kids on the street come to me!!

[evsajo]

X ray my answers are
Hoover BAGS
FOUR Grandchildren
COSTLY Dogs
RICH Vets

[paulineward]

Kay...MICROWAVE POPCORN!!!...when you come here to be auctioneer in July...it is freshly made popcorn...done by the men of course!!
We are not cooking that day!!

[evsajo]

Pauline I will be your surrogate Grandaughter!!!!

[x-ray]

Now that's an uncanny coincidence - I was just about to post my answers to the link words and I had exactly the same four as you

[Meg]

I shall put my mystic hat on and predict
animal
money
child
grand
off to bed shortly, thanks for the company!

[JoolsTwo]

Well I off to bed see you all in the morning - Goodnight and don't make too much noise will you. :-))

[x-ray]

miss meg - we had grand and child on week 1 this month

[paulineward]

PETS FOR Vets...two words I know...so what!!
Hoover DAM
NO!!!...Grandchildren...two letters I know..again so what!!??
HOT Dogs....I will leave that to your imagination!!

[Strix]

Pauline, the two dishwasher machine system works,

My wife's step-father inherited a dishwasher from his parents and rather than selling/junking it, hit on this system. Yes, there will always be pieces of crockery/glass etc that you will only use occasionally and need storing elsewhere but in general we all use the same things day to day and because most of it spends its time in one or other of the dishwashers you can dispense with a kitchen unit so you don't need to make additional space.

Now, where's my drink...

[paulineward]

KAY!!!!...I will sort you out soon!!
miss meg and Jools...goodnight...but don't go too soon!!!

[gen2]

I'm just in - had to rush out after starting this thread - friend's birthday.

Strix - I like that idea - I'll consider it once I get a bigger kitchen, at present it is the smallest room in the house.

I like your idea of making debauchery a game - Can we run it alongside the MM/Km Links games? Or do you think it will draw all the players away while they get theit hoovering done?

[paulineward]

Strix...now only a man could have thought of that!!!

Put the cup in the dishwasher after you!!

[Meg]

I'm getting a bin bag now to do the clearing up before Crofter returns.

[evsajo]

Pauline I thought you would like that!!!!! Am off to bed myself soon. Nothing personal Gen2 just that us youngsters need an earlier bedtime. Am just going to do my hot water bottle then the 3 of us will be upstairs.(Me and 2 dogs)
Does anyone know if Laney is back yet?

[paulineward]

I'll help you miss meg...Gawd..have you seen what the men have left??
That smelly sock is Sarumites..Alibobs will vouch for that...that collection of rubble..also known as stones is gen2's!! He recently had a quiz to name them!!

Those drunkards in the corner could be ...any of Strix...Strix...or Strix...

x-ray is hiding somewhere so we can't see him!!
