Week three already in the reign of Queen Pauline, how time flies! I thought we were starting a record month when Magyar swept the board in week 1 but then he failed to consolidate that lead in week 2, and let Strix nose ahead. At least it's the men leading the pack for a change, so does that mean that Queen Pauline has control of men's brains? I thought maybe sarumite could enlighten us, but he's not doing so well this month either. Maybe it's the turn of the women to score points this week - who knows?


The shrubbery is open once again to everyone prepared to tread carefully and avoid the fallen trees and flooded hollows. Incidentally, I heard a whisper that the narcotics squad have an undercover agent on this site so please, no substance abuse tonight - in any case, you need a clear head for the morn's morn.


As usual, the bonus points will be there for the taking as you emerge confused and sleepy headed from the shrubbery at 9:00 am tomorrow and remember that the thread will be opened by Psychic Pauline at about 8.45 in the morning. The MM Link Game should then be officially launched by Queen Pauline when she posts her four words to be linked at 9.00am. Then it is up to yourselves.


The international version of this same game is called KM Links and kicks off somewhat earlier once the crossword clues have been solved. Look out for seekeerz from Oz who provides the entertainment, refreshments and rule of law when dealing with that parallel game. In this case, the choice of words and their links are out of our control. They are the grey words chosen by Kate Mepham in her GK Crosswords in the Daily Telegraph on Saturday and Monday!


Now, whose turn will it be this week? Log on this weekend to find out.

Last week, I drank nothing and left the Shrubbery early, sober and clear headed.... and scored nul points.

Today, I am not going to risk the intoxication of association caused by just being in the Shrubbery - so am going to look over the fence, wish you all a good night and hope for a better performance in the morning.

For what it's worth, the words I am expecting from Queen Pauline are:

Television
Cook/ing/ery
Time
Waste/ing

Best of luck, everyone.
BigMac...can't be tempted with a little drink?
Thank you, but no thank you.
Pauline are we staying with the bible and going with Noah and his arc??? it would be topical with all the rain.
We could use the arc and all sail away, never mind the animals just stock it with 2 of all the booze!!
jan
That sounds good to me Jan!!...Like the idea of 2 bottles of each!!
Maybe a small one?
but no clues to the links there then???
have got the Baileys ready for Kay
wonder if S will make it tonight, will miss him if not
Hi your Majesty, can't come out to play tonight as I have to get up early tomorrow, long drive to meet friends and as I am one hour in front of you and won't be around for the links tomorrow morning I will bid you good night. Good luck Jan!!
Night all and best of luck!!

That really is an excellent choice, paulineward!!

As it happens, my weakness has now passed and I really will go without a drink.
Sarumite didn't mind me posting this, but for those who didn't know, he lost his Brother suddenly on Monday. He is bearing up really well in the circumstances, and he will try and get on here later. That will also explain to some of you why he might not be around as much over the weekend.

He still wants the shrubbery party to go ahead and has even sent some supplies from his garden!! :-))
Big Mac,

Sobriety never works in the undergrowth! Not so sure about the "alternative" substances.

NOW as to her Maj's words

Quite like your suggestions of

Television
Cook/ing/ery
Time
Waste/ing

Think you had a typo, they should have read:

Telepathy
Lingerie
Time off
Washing up!
hope you are sharing those supplies Pauline
Gen said no suspicious substances so go easy with those mushrooms,
we could fry them with bacon tomorrow if you are the first up?
jan
Oh no, not those funny bumps on the fly agaric, next it will be the mescal.

Think I will stick to the malt to cure my man flu....
Women's work is never done!...you men!

Right your are Jan..bacon and mushroom butties!
if you have man flu Strix does that mean you have no chance guessing the links??
we have put 2 of each drink on the arc so 2 of your favourite malts are on the shelf to your left
jan
Jan...man flu...that's a cold!!
Pauline can I have an egg (free range ofcourse) with mine?

Of course!...are you in early tomorrow Jan?
no. 2-6pm which is good but as I get to finish at 6pm it is not good . I will ofcourse have finished the crossword before I go.
hope Kay arrives soon
jan
