MM & KM Links Games [June]

[crofter]

This is the first week of the reign of gen2 and I have absolutely no idea what he has in store. It's rather like waiting for an invasion from North of the Border! I have images of Braveheart and Rob Roy all rolled into one! How should I address him?
Monarch of the Glen?
Laird of the Links?

I hear the pibroch sounding, sounding
Deep over mountain and glen
While light-springing footsteps are trampling the heath
'Tis the march of the Cameron men!

We need one of sarumite's fiendish plans! Lie low in the shrubbery until 09.00am tomorrow morning ~ then all attack at once!

For anyone who thinks AB suddenly stands for the phrase "Absolutely Bonkers", it's the start of two new Links Games ~ MM and KM! The first to kick off is KM at about 7.30-ish tomorrow morning. It is organised by seekeerz all the way from Oz. The idea is to try to predict the link words of Herculis (as many hits as possible and as early as possible).

This is followed at 9.00 by the MM Game, where the links are selected by gen2 , who was last month's MM Champion (with a score for the month of May of SEVEN points)! Games close at appropriate times on Sunday and all entries are scored!

About 50 ABers enter each week and it's a lark! Newcomers are welcome!

I'm posting this a little earlier than usual before Kay goes for Unilateral Declaration of Independence!

"Good Luck" for tomorrow ...
... and Remember BANNOCKBURN!

Oh dear Sarumite - I think you may have revealed more than you intended to when you were fleeing from the leprechauns
O was some Power the giftie gie us
To see oursels as ithers see us!

[evsajo]

Sorry shouldn't have lowered the tone of tonights chat. I typed before I thought!! If i'm not careful I will be banned.I am going to upset everyone now by telling you I am going to have a glass of Baileys (which is Irish ) .I don't usually drink but I am doing the ironing and feeling a bit fed up and I remembered I had an unopened bottle which i had as a present at Christmas so I've opened it and have a small glassful so be prepared for slurred speech !!

[sarumite]

Hi evsajo .. sorry have been away and only just catching up on thread .. well you know what they say about kilts, and I wouldn't want to disappoint anybody so I can tell you I was wearing ****** *** **** underneath !!

Oh I've been censored this calls for a drink or two ...........

The dull draff-drink maks me sae dowff,
A' I can do's but bark and yowff;
Yet set me in a claret howff
Wi' folk that's chancy,
My muse may len' me then a gowff
To clear my fancy.
Then Bacchus-like I'd bawl and bluster,
And a' the Muses 'bout me muster,
Sae merrily I'd squeeze the cluster,
And drink the grape,
'T wad gi'e my verse a brighter lustre,
And better shape.

lol (S) :O)

Wow! Is that Gaelic?

No worries O-ice, that's no match for my heavy artillery !!☺

[JoolsTwo]

Evening all, How are we doing? Enything left to drink?

[Christiana]

Hi Jools. Plenty left to eat and drink - It's very quiet here without Pauline. Have you brought any goodies with you?

[JoolsTwo]

How about some nice Shortbread - goes quite well with a tot or 2 or 3

It helps if I attach them. :-)

[LaneyB]

Hi all, is there any room in the shrubbery for me, I have some scottish smoked salmon and some oatcakes and a nice bottle of malt to lure that Gen 2 to join us. See you've brought plenty of wine Jan. Sarumite you look very handsome in your kilt - have you recovered from lunch?!!

[JoolsTwo]

There's always room for one more LaneyB

[LaneyB]

Thanks Jools, there's an awful lot of hefty scotsmen around
we could be in for a good night in the shrubbery - missing Pauline though!

[Christiana]

I love shortbread. Was about to retreat for the night, but might stay a little longer.

[JoolsTwo]

Yes me too Christiana, It's been hard this week even though only worked 4 days. I'm not used to doing full time - and I'm getting excited, mour daughter arrivies next Saturday. I Soooooo excited. :-)

[sarumite]

Hi Jools and Laney ... just taken off nurses cap and back to the shrubbery for eats and drinks .. I'd love a single malt myself if you've got one Laney ! Cheers (S)

[LaneyB]

Certainly S, a nice Highland Park should do the trick. Not too many mind, you have to be on form for tomorrow!

[JoolsTwo]

Well I'm off to my bed now - So I will bid you all Goodnight and I will see you in the morning.

[Christiana]

Goodnight Jools, I'm off to my bed, too. I was given some very nice home made sausage rolls today, so I thought I'd give you the last few, Sarumite, to go with your single malt.

[evsajo]

Finished ironing and Baileys. Have to go to bed now so have a good night in the shrubbery and will see you in the morning. Hope I manage to get 1 point next month with Gen2's links. Goodnight all,luv Evsajo (Kay)
