This is 'Sir Robin of Linksley', back to offer you my second challenge.

Senior Moment?

Fifty years ago you could still find room to anchor a small yacht in the charming little harbour at Tarbert, Loch Fyne, although it was pretty crowded even then. We were cruising in company with a doctor friend and, arriving at our agreed overnight stop, we dropped our sails and nosed our way in under engine - as one does.

Imagine my surprise when my normally careful friend arrived some half an hour later and started a frantic search for swinging space under full sail! He eventually dropped his anchor after several quite near misses and, after giving him time to tidy up the chaos on deck, I rowed across in the dinghy to see what was the matter. No engine, of course.

Like most doctors he was no mechanic, so I started the tedious business of diagnosing the trouble. It soon became clear that the fuel pipe from tank to engine was completely blocked, but with what? It seemed like a thick, fluffy porridge. He was aghast. He would certainly have something to say to the people at the marina where he normally bought his diesel. I must know, he said, what a careful, belt-and-braces sort of a chap he was. Indeed, he went on, he made absolutely sure that every drop of fuel going into his tank was filtered - through several thicknesses of surgical lint!

According to normal practice, for the everyday running of MM, I shall follow this rule on word length, in that each of my pre-selected link words contains at least four letters and at most eight letters. Stray outside this range and you will be wasting one of your attempts!

Each of the selected link words may go in front of, or behind my challenge word to make a new longer word or to make a well-known phrase or saying. The combination will never be a person's name.

The competition will officially close on Sunday Evening at 7.00pm, when gen2 will declare my pre-selected words and then apply the same rules for awarding points that have been applied during all MM Link Games in the past. My set of four words to have their links predicted should appear below at 9.00am.
