Thanks to this month's setter, 'Princess Di' (aka grannydi) you were challenged to guess four word pairings in the MM Links Game which has just closed.

I can now reveal that her chosen links were:

TIME LORD
SMALL CHANGE
SILVER MEDAL
CROWN PRINCE

All reasonable choices but with many possible alternatives, scoring was a little on the low side.

Were you one of the lucky ones? See below:

Because the links weren't really obscure, they were all found easily within the first few minutes of play.

Tearing hair immediately got the ball rolling with SMALL CHANGE for her 2 points with Strix also in time for a bonus on this.

Beejay then claimed SILVER MEDAL for his 2 points. Owllady was also in time for a bonus here.

Still with the clock on 9:01, Rockfordill claimed two points for CROWN PRINCE.

The final link lasted just three minutes longer until BigMac heeded the subliminal message in all those BBC trailers and opted for TIME LORD which along with the 'Small Change' in his back pocket, netted him 3 points.


For being the only double-hitter, I declare . . .

***** HOTSHOT FOR *****
***** THIS WEEK IS *****
**** * B I G M A C * *****
*** CONGRATULATIONS ***


In summary, this weeks scorers were:

3 BigMac
2 beejay1124
2 owllady
2 rockfordill
2 Strix
2 tearinghair
1 baza
1 boxtops
1 deecee131
1 elliemay1
1 Elspeth
1 Handbaglady
1 jobjockey
1 Onty (Mr O)


'Princess Di' will be back again next Saturday with a further challenge,

So until then,
Same time (9am)
Same place (Q&P)
Happy Linking

Thanks Princess Di and Gen2, and well done to all scorers. Thanks also for the Hotpot quiz, gen2 - harder than ever on a first look..... (and I'm really puzzled about the number of letters in #57).
Question Author
Hi Tearinghair (and others).
I assure you that the number of letters for #57 is definitely as stated: (4,4).

I reckoned that this time there were only a couple of clues that I would class as difficult. Maybe others refer to meteorological events that you have never heard of.
Yes, I'd forgotten how devious you can be! I've got another half-dozen thiis evening.
Wow! Points for a (small) change.

Thanks to grannydi and gen2.
