MM and KM Links May 2012 Week [2]

[gen2]

It is shrubbery opening time once again but I'm afraid I'll have to do it by remote control.

I'm not One, I'm not Two,
I'm not Three, I'm not Four
But I am 500 miles away from home.

I'm just managing to cling on to the internet by a dongle.

I have been able to confirm thechallenge words and posts with 'BigMac' and he is all ready to do the necessary in Q&P at 8:45 and 9 am tomorrow. Will you be ready to play along for the MM Links Game? Will you be on BigMac's wavelength? Find out this weekend.

Of course, as usual, Seekeerz will be launching the KM version in the same place but usually a little earlier. That game is based on the GK crosswords set by Kate Mepham in the Daily Telegraph Saturday & Monday.

Must rush - I'm worried my dongle might drop off.

Until tomorrow then - Happy Linking

Evening all. Just had a picture in my head of gen2 clinging on with his dongle! :-)

[Euphemia]

Thanks gen2. Please hold on tight!

[Strix]

You must stop playing dingle dangle with your dongle!

[evsajo]

Pauline what's a dongle ????

[paulineward]

Kay...I don't know. :-)

[Strix]

Perhaps, if you both go to the AGM, Gen2 will show you his and let you play with it!

[paulineward]

Do you have one Strix?

[BigMac]

Will this help?

Ah....

[BigMac]

More seriously, I think gen2's using the second definition:

dongle

1. a hardware device attached to a computer without which a particular software program will not run: used to prevent unauthorized use.

2. Also called wireless adapter . a device that can be plugged into a USB port to enable wireless access from a computer to an external Wi-Fi device, as a mobile phone, or to the Internet, via high-speed broadband, or to enable wireless connectivity in a printer or other peripheral.

[evsajo]

Is a dingle the same as a dongle ???

[paulineward]

Kay...I don't know... :-))

Big Mac will know! I had a dongle but it worked for one visit on the net and didn't work again!

[evsajo]

Don't think I even possess a dongle so have no idea what it is. I wonder if I need one ??
