MM Links Game Results Oct Week 2

[gen2]

The most popular choices were 'harvest mouse', 'mill stone', 'tower bridge' and 'view point', but were those the ones you were chasing?

I can now reveal that Morgan Le Fay's choices wer in fact:-
HARVEST MOON
MILL WHEEL
TOWER BRIDGE
VIEW POINT

Well, it has been a great contrast to last week. Points have been scattered to all corners, landing on most players' scorecards.

Overall, 51 points were handed out to 28 players - tough luck if you weren't one of them.

Details follow:-

The opening player immediately found two answers and so I declare

boxtops, ChrisHewat (SHAZZA), cliffyg, deecee131, JimJools (JOOLS), joto, kawakiri, mirandasmum, seekeerz & Strix

Oh One last thing

A warm welcome back to the game for Crofter who posted late this afternoon.
You may want to take a look because he also had a request.

Happy linking

[albaqwerty]

Thank you gen2 and Euphemia.

If I had the card Crofter was requesting I would willing send, unfortunately I don't but I do wish him success in obtaining one

[tearinghair]

Thank you for the points Morgan leF and gen2. These will have to suffice for a couple of weeks as I'm off to California on Wednesday to see the family (and visit Yosemite) but will be back for the final week in the month.
Sorry I can't help, crofter (how nice to see you back) but we have no Morrisons locally though I believe planning permission has been granted to build one on the site of the former Ford factory. I don't expect that promotion will still be ongoing by the time it opens....

[rockfordill]

Many congratulatons R that more than makes up for last month!
I am presently freefalling and do I remember where the ripcord is?
Have a good week

[boxtops]

Thank you for my points :-)

[gen2]

I envy you Tearinghair - I have always fancied seeing Yosemite since I came across Ansel Adams' photographs in the 1960s

Incidentally, they have access to the internet (and AnswerBank) in the USA these days!

[tearinghair]

True Gen2, but the 8-hour difference is a bit awkward when it comes to remembering to log on. No chance next weeknd, but i might try for the weekend after.
Have bought a new camera (still a compact, but lighter and cleverer than my last one). If the pics from Yosemite are any good I might try to upload some - where would you advise?

[roslyn251254]

Thank you for my 4 points and "title" for the week!

[gen2]

Tearinghair,
There are many picture-sharing websites around. Some just allow viewing by invitation.
I think a good site for uploading pictures to display publicly to others is FLICKR.

I was using that extensively 1 to 2 years ago (under the name gen2) though not so much this year as I have been trying the one-a-day challenge of Blipfoto (again under the name of gen2). I have also uploaded to Multiply under the name of gentoo2.

You can see them here:

[tearinghair]

Thanks Gen2, I'll try Flickr if I have anything worth showing and if I can work out how to use it. I've looked at your photos in the past - brilliant!

[Strix]

Oh, I love the idea of Gen(2) in a tutu on Multiply!

[Strix]

Tearinghair, Gen2's photos on blipfoto are somewhere between astonishing, mind-bending and genius- go have a look.

[gen2]

Strix, ... and all these years I have been thinking a 'Desmond' was a degree (a 2-2).

PS.
Thanks for the OTT appraisal of my meagre abilities.

[BigMac]

Sorry, Crofter, can't help you.

If I had any points I'd be happy to transfer them... ...bud sadly lacking there, too.

Congrats to those getting matches and thanks to the scorer.

[Strix]

Better than a Douglas, Gen2 !!

[JoolsTwo]

Thanks Gen2 and Morgan le Fey - Am I getting onto your wave length? - We'll have to see how I get on next week. Points have been thin on the ground of late though.

[roslyn251254]

gen2 - your photos are AMAZING!

[JoolsTwo]

Sorry I can't help crofter - I will ask about and see if anyone I know is/has collected them. Good to see you back.

[ladyalex]

One point for me..well it's one more than last week!

Thanks to Morgan and gen2.

Can't help you , crofter, sorry.
