MM and KM Links May 2012 Week [4]

[gen2]

I'll be brief this evening as I have just returned home from a fortnight on the Sussex Riviera.

Tomorrow sees he culmination of the May rounds in both versions of the game.Who eill be champion? Who will be the new setter?

BigMag is trying his hardest to confuse you though it waas not his fault there was dome disssent amongst the ranks last Sunday. I am to blame for letting the 'name' linking go through. Rest assured that it won't happen again and I have modified the standard paragrapg in the preamble to clarify the rules for future games.

BigMag will launch the MM version of the game with apreamble at 0945 and the challenge at 9am sharp.

The sister game of KM links will also start in Q&P tomorrow morning, but earlier. Don't worry, there are no bonus points in that version so no rush to play is necessary (unlike BigMac's challenge where early play is recommended.

Until tomorrow then - Happy Linking

Evening all...hot enough for you?

[x-ray]

Good evening all....and Pauline
Where is everyone tonight ?

[tearinghair]

Finishing off some knitting, x-ray. How sad is that?!

[paulineward]

I think they've all fallen asleep in the shrubbery from the heat. :-))

Hi tearinghair
Not sad at all, knitting can be very exciting - depends what you're knitting.
I rather liked gen2s introduction - BigMag obviously hasn't seen it yet and I hope the preamble is at 08.45 and not 09.45.
Sorry gen2 - just proving that I do read

[tearinghair]

It's a triangular lacy-pattern shawl. I now have five in the same wool (but different colours) for my daughter's stall at her next exhibition. I'm not allowed to do the jumpers or cardigans (and to be fair, I couldn't meet her very exacting standards with regard to the making-up), but shawls, Christmas puddings - in season naturally - and rats (yes....) are accepted.

[Strix]

I rather like the idea of a post-amble at 9.45 showing how and why all our guesses were/are so off-track!

[Strix]

Avoiding talking about knitting or preambles but with reference to the sudden rise in temperature:

[gen2]

Wot! Nobody commenting on the typos?

You can either:
1) blame a long drive up to Fife from Cambridge.
2) blame a knock to head I received on Monday

. . . and keep your fingers crossed that the results won't be posted at 7am, Sat

Good evening all......as I don't knit, I'll give you one of my favourites instead...

[BigMac]

Hi, BigMag here, standing in for BigMac. Just back from work.... a long story. But I have had my medicine from St James's Gate and feel a little better.

If there's any doubt, preamble will kick-off at 08:45 and the link words will folow at 09:00.

Buona sera,

Big Mac

[BigMac]

And, of course, there are two 'l's in 'follow', in the same way (as the fanzine has it) there is only one 'f' in Fulham.... ... ...

[paulineward]

LOL...gen2 'bug' is catching. :-)

[Handbaglady]

With reference to St James' are you a Magpie supporter?

[BigMac]

St James's Gate, Dublin.... home of a rather well-known brewery

[paulineward]

What else eh handbaglady? :-))

[paulineward]

Well I'n off to bed, so I will leave them sleeping in the shrubbery tomorrow, climb over them all, and wake them up Sunday night at 7.15pm. :-))
