Good morning everyone - bright and early with todays links and the round-up for the month and needless to say, not disappointed with the turn-out from our entrants. As predicted, not quite so much...
For his final week, Strix maintained a more or less gentle standard for his last set of link words, namely: Oil SLICK GREASE Paint FIELD Fare STAIR Well Scoring proved quite brisk ~ particularly...
Good morning everyone - here we are at the end of the month, and a month where Kate has had us on the ropes just a bit. Scoring was hard to come by up until last week and then the flood gates opened,...
"What will happen next week is anyone’s guess." crofter wrote in last weeks results. Well, my friends, we are into the last week of this month and as some of you are (stop whinging)...
This will be the final week of our Triple Crown MM Links Champion (Strix) with no fewer than 14 weekly challenges under his belt in relatively short time. Whenever he has been asked to step into the...
It is with great sadness that I wish to inform members of Answerbank of the death last week of Barbara...aka rogerr. I rang to have one of my usual chinwags with her, when her husband Graham told me...
Oh my goodness - what is that Chinese proverb - be careful what you wish for ??? Well, it arrived, in spades, this morning !!! What I thought was going to be another of Kate's 'tricky' weeks turned...
For this, his penultimate week, Strix held to his promise to an extent by relaxing on the obscurity of some of his link words. Judge for yourself as I now disclose his links for Week 4 as follows:...
Good morning everyone - Here with another weekend of fun and frivolity !! and this month is fairly tearing past. And once again, I think Kate is trying us out [maybe she's in contact with Strix !!...
I apologise if I seem, unintentionally, to have been rather mean last week for using words that did not easily give you all points. This week I will endeavour to redress the balance (maybe!). So let...
I have had yet another week to catch up with the manic mental meanderings of Strix and it’s like pushing treacle up hill! This man is truly “YOU-NEEK”! Fortunately, he prepares all...
Good morning everyone - lovely day here, sunshine etc and the Spring racing is well underway - I love this time of the year !! Hopefully lots of points available today with the four matches on offer,...
When I left you last weekend I had written about some of my time at University in the ‘60’s. The beginning of the 70’s found me working in London for a famous Graphics, Industrial...
After the slight fiasco of last weekend, rescued by my good friend Gen2 in crofter’s absence overseas, I can only hope that I fare better when posting the MM Links tomorrow morning. However I...
Well I am very sorry about the fiasco on Saturday morning. Our very good friend Gen2 has enlightened me as to the reason why it all went DD cups upwards. It appears my intro was too long for dear old...
Good morning all - lovely sunny day here for a long weekend, a hint of things to come. I know I won't be saying this when we get to January but I don't mind warm sunshine and a bit of a potter in the...
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...
Good morning all - not quite so pushed for time today !! Well, we had four unusual words this weekend and while two of the matches were fairly predictable, the other two were a little less likely....
The Lady Radley (aka Handbaglady) finished off her month as the MM Links setter in fine form. Posting her link words on time AND in the correct section made life ridiculously easy. The...
