Previously, Google was directing seekers of Q&P to the 'Weather' section. That was then replaced by a correct link for 'Crosswords'. BUT Dear Ed (or Spare Ed), Are you aware that the Google link...
What a hoot, I’m back again, and crofter has decreed that my new moniker is STRIX THE STARGAZER. I was puzzled for a moment as to why. Then I remembered Oscar’s words “We are all in...
Evening All, Hope this is not 'The Weather'! I'm afraid this is going to be good news for a few, bad news for most and extremely bad news for one player who changed a correct answer into a wrong one....
Yes Folks, it's me again standing in for Crofter. I have it on good authority that “The Lady Radley” (aka Handbaglady) will be opening the MM Links game on-time tomorrow morning (8:45 for...
I have just tried to help someone with an answer to the Skeleton Crossword. Unfortunately insufficient and inaccurate information was supplied. Maybe part of the fault is my own by not anderstanding...
How does evsajo do it? She was spot on with her prediction ... of Zero points! (On the Celsius scale of course) For the rest of you, "The Lady Ursula” (aka owllady) teased us all with talk...
Tonight I arrived at the shrubbery gates only to find them locked and that I didn't have my set of keys so had to go back home for them. Senior moments are something we increasingly have to come to...
When the cat's away the mice will play. You can't say "Oh but it's confined to Chatterbank" because it isn't. The offence is there for all to see in the 'Latest Posts' pod, whichever page a...
Dear Current AB Editor, I just clicked on your avatar because I thought you were maybe an impostor. I was expecting a familiar garden gnome and then I was then surprised to see that you are: a)...
Welcome to the Shrubbery. “Sir Robin of Links-ley” (aka Aquagility) has been teasing you all to guess his links over the last 4 weeks. Sometimes points were hard to find and then other...
Did you have a problem guessing the links or did someone tip you the wink? Maybe the Fonz made your day? I can reveal that on this, the 4th wekend in May, “Sir Robin of Linksley” (aka...
Oh dear, looks like I'll be on a charge of dereliction of duty tonight. I all but forgot that our dear leader, Crofter, has gone AWOL this weekend and I have been left with the keys to the...
70% of Chatterbank users have ditched their 'jellybaby' image and set themselves up with a brand new avatar. Only 5% of Q&P posters have changed theirs. Come on folks - show we are not a bunch of...
I have just posted a question in 'Science' where the distinction between upper-case and lower-case letters is important to understanding their meaning. My question title included two lower-case...
I have noticed that many food products on sale in the UK have changed their units of measurement. Having just got used to the switch from imperial to metric, are we now being subjected to another...
There have recently been several questions in Q&P asking : "Which type of dog is so called because it pursues its quarry underground." That got me thinking as to why nobody has bred a...
Firstly, a big thank you from me to Strix for stepping in at short notice to set the links this month. Some of you will have cause to thank him as well when you see the scores below, but others may...
Hi again Shrubbery gang and hopeful Linkers. This is a wekend for celebration because 'Strix the Bibliophile', 'Strix the Silviculturist' and 'Strix the Horticulturist' will assume yet another persona...
