Sorry Strix, I mis-remembered who was winner and who was runner-up that time - I just remembered an exchange of emails. It was fordward who took the honours that month.
Keep trying Strix, and hopefully your turn will come (oneday).
Lysander, crofter obviously has a strong faith in the workings behind the scenes of the AB editorial team. I, however, do not share that belief and rather doubt the presence of an AB Editor at all on a Sunday.
As an alternative, you could email me and I will forward it to crofter and I will forward his email address (which he does not want revealed on open forum), to you.
Lysander, please have a go at setting the links.
Crofter will help you through all the way. He is just so good at quelling anxieties and taking you through the procedure step by step. Honestly , if you can post a question on AB, you can set the links.
I had a great time.
Nothing for me, but thanks Ladyalex, it's been an interesting month. Thanks also to crofter for the hard work on the abacus.
Congratulations lysander - I had a notion that you were of the female gender. I see you are also the leader of the pack in the KM links, maybe you are in for the double this month.
Well done to all the other runners up.
See you all again next week and maybe in the morning for the KM results
I would just like to add a message to strix, sarumite, and all the other chaps who play this game......we are letting the girls win too often...it's about time we had a man setting the links....must work out a plan in the shrubbery on friday...see you then, have a good week
Thanks Crofter and Lady Alex. I did take the HARDER hint to heart and looked somewhat deeper for links this week hence PANE and PASCHAL!! Good month, good fun and thanks again to all for their hard work!
Oh bah humbug !!! think I scored a whole one point in the five weeks !!! but thank you ladyalex for a most entertaining contest and our very reliable crofter for keeping the show rolling alone.
Congratulations lysander very well done and don't you even think about chickening out - the guys will help you every step of the way so go for it.
More Bah! Humbug! as I don't think we even scored one point in the whole month. Strix Having Googled Marchpane and found that it's edible I now need another recipe to go along with the Eton Mess.
Thanks Lady Alex for some very tough links - too tough for us, but we did learn about desserts we never knew existed and are looking forward to the actual tasting of same.
Thanks Crofter, as always, for keeping order and the score.
Congratulations to Lysander. Perhaps we'll be more on your wavelength.
Until next weekend when we wish good luck to all.
