MM and KM Link Games March [Week 1]

[gen2]

It is Friday once again and as you see, the Shrubbery is under new management for the month of March. As Rabbie once said "The best-laid plans o' mice an' men. Gang aft a-gley".

Firstly, crofter is off for a spell in the sun to recharge his batteries (solar of course) and so he has passed his abacus and control over to myself for March.
Next, a big spanner in the works - Bridgenut had to decline the setting because he also has to be away. But I know how disappointed you'd all be if the game didn't happen for a month - and so . . .

. . . the links for for March will therefore be set by a Mystery Guest who is under strict instructions to keep well clear of the shrubbery so there will be no opportunities for nobbling anyone.

My apologies for opening the Shrubbery gates a little early tonight but I am going out to my Art Club's annual Committee Dinner. Please make sure you keep the place tidy (I'll be checking back later this evening) and I don't want to return to complaints from the neighbours about noisy music - remember, some of these modern youths don't appreciate our real music.

It is a new month so the scores are reset to zero for both the KM and MM games. Both are launched in 'Quizzes & Puzzles' on Saturday morning.

The MM game is introduced at 8:45 am and the action starts at 9:00am. (Did I say 'action'? - well, more like the opening of a January sale!)
Look out for the sister game KM Links (based on the Daily Telegraph GK Crossword) which can start at a very early hour and is managed by seekeerz from down under.

The rest of this thread is now thrown open to the Shrubbery Crowd and guests.
Enjoy yourselves.

[paulineward]

Kay...you do get around!!! :-))

I only ever play a man in Salisbury!!....and in pink!

[x-ray]

Well it's time for me to depart.
Thanks for the company tonight and I wish you all a good night with pleasant dreams.
Will we find out the identity of our mystery link setter in the morning....or will it still be a mystery.
Good night !!!

[sarumite]

[paulineward]

Goodnight x-ray....That's a point...maybe they will stay a mystery!! Links must be connected to 'mystery'
...tour...shopper...murder...hmmm

Sarumite..Laura is just on her way in now with boyfriend!
I have just put deep fat fryer on for chips!!

I have run out of crackers for us!! :-((

[evsajo]

Moi???? Just because I have had a man in my roof, but forgot to add had a different one in the roof yesterday and on Monday too!!!!!!
I am going to be a real party pooper in a minute as tomorrow will be a late night and last night was too. Have had a glass of Baileys (first for months and it was lovely!!!!) and am really chilled!!!!!!!

[paulineward]

Kay...be a devil ...have another one!! You knocked them back when I was there!! :-)))

[sarumite]

Kay .. the mind boggles, I hope they're not still up there!!! You might have squatters!! ?

Pauline, I think the crackers would be a bit soft by June, so maybe a fresh supply (with Stilton) can be arranged?

[paulineward]

Sarumite...I will have had several supplies by then!!

I am working on my Itinerary already!!

[twix123]

Kay, what's this..."playing with a man in Bali" and men in the roof, when do the bats in the belfry come in?

[paulineward]

twix...nothing surprises me with Kay. When I went to visit her last year...she took me in Lichfield Cathedral...and we were almost barred!!

[sarumite]

Well goodnight all ... I had a drop of Fursty Ferret earlier, fairly strong local ale, and I'm feeling a bit sleepy now, so off to the land of nod!

See you in the morning .... Cheers! (S) ;O)

[Dustybun]

evening all! Just a quick look-in as I have been busy trying to rescue my washing from the machine!! Don't ask.....

Pauline, been reading above - it's not me, honest injun! Knowing how thorough crofter is he has probably done it all in advance for someone to post for him. We shall soon find out.

If there's anyone left up at this terrible hour, here's my feel-good bit for the day (apart from the washing machine). Saw these in Sheffield on Tuesday. Class act!

The man from Bali is just a Scrabble player!!!!!
