MM and KM Links June 2012 Week [5]

[gen2]

This weekend sees the climax of our two weekend guessing games. The champions for June will be decided along with a new setter for July's MM Game.

Currently, the MM game is in the hands of 'Don Corleone' (aka deecee131). I believe he was really upset last weekend when Kate Mepham stole one of his pairings so will he take revenge this time?
Can you double-think him? Can you out-think him? Your last chance will be introduced at 8:45am in Q&P with the game starting on the dot of 9:00. Early players stand the best chance of earning bonus points. Can you catch or overtake Rockfordill who is currently 2 points ahead on 10 points?

If you fancy a more leisurely game where points are the same whether you play at 7am Sat or 11pm Sun, then the KM Game is for you. That version is overseen by Seekeerz in Australia and the challenge words are those highlighted by Kate Mepham (KM) in the Saturday Telegraph GK Crossword. The matching links are those highlighted in Monday's Telegraph Herculis crossword.

You don't have to choose between them - you are welcome to play both games, so I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow morning in Q&P.

The shrubbery is now open to yourselves for socialising or scheming. Don't all rush in at once, form an orderly line at the gate, and while you are here, it would be a great help to improve the shrubbery if you could all remove 4 or 5 stones from the plant beds as you pass through.
Please do not disturb the new still in the potting-shed or the moonshine may not be papatable.

Goodnight all, I have other things to do this evening and will see you all tomorrow.

Happy Linking

Evening all.

evening Pauline
thought there would be a hive of activity by now
have removed some weeds and stones on way in
hope gen2 dosn't get you all clearing his garden next week!

[paulineward]

Our garden is just about drying out!
We could really do with some more sunshine.

[gen2]

Good idea Jan - 30 snails and 50 slugs each should produce a marked improvement - I'll even throw in some garlic for added flavour if preferred.

Don't know about the rest of you, but we've spent half the day clearing up our own house and garden after yesterday's freak thunder storm, so maybe a few more stones on the way into the shrubbery is all we have the energy for. We have enough stones, mud and general detritus of our own to cope with at present! A few stiff drinks (the stiffer the better) wouldn't come amiss now, either.

[paulineward]

Sounds like you've had it bad Manxiemo! The pictures on tv have been awful.

We have been very lucky here just wet, cold and miserable, but nothing too extreme.

[paulineward]

Let's hope we can get through to the North of the Border! :-))

Late on parade - apologies.
Have had a couple of drinks to celebrate the end of another 'great' week. Time for bed, I think.
Good luck, all, tomorrow with KM and MM.
