Once again it's Friday, which is Italian Night at the Croft. The meal is cooking nicely and I have opened a bottle of red wine, so that it can breathe! I am about to pour my second glass, but I promise that I'll let the rest of it breathe! I have had a very lazy day watching the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. Fantastic spectacle!

This will be the second round in the reign of Sir Sarumrite and he has promised me a tighter game in which he will cut down on the possible options for links. In preparation, I have sprayed the Sacred Abacus with WD40 to minimise the friction and thereby eliminate overheating. I guess it will be sensible to get in early and gather the bonus points. Look out for his second launch, which should take place tomorrow at 8.45am with his four words to be linked being declared at 9.00am.

This week should also see the continued smooth running of the KM Links and International version of the sister game which is driven by the choices made by Kate Mepham of Hercules fame in the Daily Telegraph. This parallel game is organised by my good friend seekeerz who hails all the way from the Land of Oz. This version kicks off as soon as someone receives their copy of the DT, solves the Hercules crossword and posts the four words to be linked. This can happen as early as 06.30am! Why not try your hand at BOTH games.

As for me, I am crofter, Keeper of the Rule Book and Sacred Abacus.

Happy Linking!

Where has everybody gone tonight ?????
I am here x ray, think they are all watching the Olympics
maybe we should bring a portable tv to the shrubbery!
Hi, I am babysiting so have got to get the boys to bed now but will be back later when they have settled down.
By the way am not at home, am in Brixham, Devon at my daughter's house
x-ray - I have been away dealing with all sorts of problems like a puppy with a fractured femur (the pin keeps trying to get out) , a wife and daughter away at a horse competition - just returned - additonally cooking dinner so as to try to coincide with their return from the West Country on the notoriously difficult A 303 on a Friday night.
Will be her for a short while
However will not be around next weekend as I will be bobbing around on the old briney in the Inner Hebrides.
Dreadful music but!!

AND I will NOT be posting Roderick Stewart wailing "Sailing" !!
Hi everyone!!....sorry I'm late.
Been out most of the day...a late fish and chip tea....and now I am here!!

What's on the agenda then for tonight???
Where did you dig that one up from Strix?!!
I'd rather have Rod Stewart wailing!
Enjoy your meal. Just off out to meet some friends, enjoy the evening in the Shrubbery.
Where is Pauline? Hi Jan and Evasjo, have a drink on me!
strix I was more concerned about you been HER for a short while, ;-))))
than about singing sailing!
Hi Pauline, had a busy day?.
did you get loads of scraps with the fish and chips Pauline
oooh and loads of vinegar
Sounds like you've had a stressful day strix, hopefully all is ok now. I gather you are not a Rod Stewart fan.

Good evening everybody
Hi Laney....not stopped to draw breath!

Jan...that takes me back ...asking for scratchings!!
I have them swimming in vinegar!!! :-))
How did the puppy break it's leg strix??
Pauline,
Rascal is an extremely naughty (she is female!) foxhound puppy that managed to wriggle through a four inch gap under a gate and was hit by a car. Hounds are not like dogs and are, to be frank, hell to keep under control.

No, I am not anti-Rod Stewart at all but I loathe "Sailing" as it has been so over-played - others of his I love particularly when he has sung Tom Waite - not those that follow.

I will give you two of Roderick's singings - even though he did once try to steal one of my girlfriends (didn't succeed I am pleased to say, so I forgive him!):

Just looking in to survey the estate, and pleased to see there has been no outlandish behaviour in the shrubbery as of yet!!

Well I woudn't want to miss out on anything, would I ? ... the question is should I start with a glass or a tinnie?? Pass the drinks please somebody. (SS) :O)
Strix...that's awful....hope she gets better quickly!
She's just inquisitive...us Ladies like to knw what's going on!

Reg looked up at that music playing...his all time favourite performer!!!
