This is “King Cliffyg” Tomorrow sees the final day of the Premiership Season. After Manchester City’s win over Aston Villa on Wednesday only Deecee’s beloved West Ham can deny City their...
The game has now closed. 'King Cliffyg' did warn you that he had set a hard challenge to start the month off but some of his expectations weren't just 'outside the box', they weren't even on the...
Good morning everyone - lovely day here, after a very chilly night, it seems to have settled a bit following very heavy rain - don't like the chances for my sweet peas, I've already squashed a fair...
Were you expecting Scorpiojo? Unfortunately, she was unable to accept the honour so this is “King Cliffyg” back to give you a five week month of challenges. The town where I live, Loughton in...
Good morning everyone - very grateful to Cliffyg for posting the clues in my 'Gremlins' post and also the link words. They are - SCORE WHITE STEEL MARSH Plenty to get our teeth into there, so Good...
Lady Jill here with the final instalment of my version of Letter from America. Daily routine included taking the dog for a walk in the park – a new experience for me as I have cats – and...
Good morning everyone - I'll start by wishing everyone a very happy Easter, though I'm a day early, and hope you're all enjoying the break. We're having a quiet one this year, much the way I prefer...
'Lady Jill' (aka tearinghair) here again, wearing (I hope) a more generous hat this week. Seeing my grandsons only every couple of years means that I’m not so aware as many of you of what a surprise...
Week 3 already and Easter Weekend too. Maybe some of you are going away this weekend - down to England or even further, perhaps across to France? But that is not an excuse for not playing one or both...
Good Morning from a somewhat jet-lagged 'Lady Jill' (aka tearinghair). Back now from California, and unlike James Bond both shaken and stirred. Stirred by the stark beauty of the surrounding...
Good morning everyone - after a sticky few days and a lot of rain (not here though! ) we're back to cool nights and mild sunny days, just the weather I like. Now what has Kate given us this week -...
March is creeping on but it is still not Easter. While you are waiting, why not try your brain at one of our little guessing games that take place in Q&P every weekend? First to kick off will be the...
This is 'Lady Jill' (aka tearinghair) posting this introduction by proxy (gen2) because I am currently asleep in California. I’m on my (more or less) two-yearly visit to the family in USA. It’s...
Good morning everyone - somewhat on the cool side this morning but should be a lovely day later.... My favourite time of the year !! Now what do we have for the start of a new month - GREEN NUMBER...
This is 'Good King John II' back for his final week. So we are now fully retired and living down on the River Arun in a small village called Bury. Very near to the seaside with all its attractions....
Good morning everyone - back to sunny and warm here, looking at a nice weekend for a change, means I ought to be outside doing things, pity the crossword comes on a Saturday !! Four 'thoughtful' links...
Just a brief and early reminder for everyone (I'm going to be unavailable for most of the rest of this evening). This is the final round of both of this month's games and so it is important not to...
This is 'Good King John II' back for Week four. Enough of the Midwest I hear you say – and quite right too. In the early 80s we retired back to this green and pleasant land and settled in Surrey...
Good morning everyone - Gorgeous Autumn weather here, cold nights, sunny days, so it's out into the garden for yours truly ....let's see how long that lasts !! A nice little group of links for us,...
This is 'Good King John II' back for Week three. I said last week that I would deal with the vast European immigration to the USA in the 19th century and how it affected life in the Midwest. It may be...
