Question Author
As you can imagine, all links were found within the first couple of minute's play.
First down was STATION MASTER accosted by first guesser BigMac.
Beejay1124, rockfordill, lysander, owllady, grannydi & patchett all managed to squeeze through the 2-minute bonus window so 2 points all round.
Second player Beejay1124 was along second and chose STEAM IRON along with middlestump, fordward, owllady and patchett for 2 points each.
In the following minute, Fordward opted for TRAIN SPOTTER (2 points). This was surprisingly the least popular link in the game (just 4 takers). Maybe you thought the clue in the preamble was too obvious?
The final link of TRACK SUIT also fell in the second minute of play when Strix, followed by grannydi & patchett decided to go for a run (2 points each)
Thereafter, the matches were worth only a single point each mut there were many clamanys including double hitters and treble hitters.
In fact there were 9 douBle and 2 treble hitters so

Will Tearinghair (aka Lady Jill) be as generous with the points next time?
Or will she revert to being parsimonious?
You'll just have to drop in atry again next weekend to find out.
Until then:-
Same time
