MM & KM Links August 2008 [Week 1]

[crofter]

Once again, we have reached Friday night
And now wait for Sir Samurite,
To guess how he thinks
Predicting his Links
And score points for getting them right!

This will be the first round in the reign of Sir Samurite and, for yet another week, I have had a remarkably easy time to prepare for the next MM Links Contest. Look out for his first launch, which should take place tomorrow at 8.45am with his four words to be linked being declared at 9.00am.

This week should also see the continued successful return of seekeerz from Oz, who is the gatekeeper for the international version of this same game (called KM Links) and kicks off at the unearthly hour of about 06.30am! Why not try your hand at BOTH games.

This is the first Friday in the month and therefore I have my own Quiz at the local Cricket Club ~ so I'll keep this short. The clock already reads 19.00, so I'd better get this posted for the ramblings of the Shrubbery Squad!

As for me, I am crofter, Keeper of the Rule Book and Sacred Abacus.

Happy Linking!

:o)

Hey Kay...not forgetting....Elkie Brooks!!

[Strix]

Pauline that is a wonderful and naughty mix of Monty P and Lord of the R's! BUT which was our sainted Samurai?

[Christiana]

Hello ooooo. I�m feeling invisible, or did you just miss my post on the turn of the page? I know I can�t name-drop but, pretty please, how about a quick hello before I turn in for the night (or, possibly turn into a pumpkin or some such)

[paulineward]

Strix...Well having rewatched it that is debatable...it could have been the one blowing the raspberry!!!...Goading us for the links!!

Christiana...I thought you weren't staying around.....but glad you did!!! Great to have you back!!

[paulineward]

Christiana...if you're not too busy...how about popping over and marking some quiz sheets???

B & B...provided free!!!....might even throw in Evening Meal!!

[evsajo]

Hello Christiana, wasn't ignoring you but am also playing Scrabble on facebook so keep going from one site to the other.
The only reason I have met these people is I was a cotestant on "Name that Tune" many years ago, and I was asked to be on the Christmas Charity show where I partnered Mike Reid (the DJ) against Angela Rippon and another winner.
They recorded the New year prog. at the same time and there were other famous people on that.

Good evening all
As I often wander past The Shrubbery on a Friday evening I have wondered which was the entrance to Pauline's house. Obviously that was an excerpt from the secret video taken of 'The Visit' of some important guests a couple of weeks ago!!!

[paulineward]

Oh Kay...you name dropper!!! :-))

[Christiana]

Hi Pauline and Strix. Not really staying around. Just doing last minute chores - all finished now, so good night. Have fun.

[evsajo]

Please don't turn into a pumpkin, the two S's would think of something horrible to do to you.
Pauline if it's fine tomorrow and I go out can I ring you for the MM words please?????

[ladyalex]

Hello everybody
I've been baking cakes tonight as we are expecting guests tomorrow, hence I'm up so late.
How is everyone ?

[paulineward]

How great to see you twix123!!!
My house isn't that hard to get into really!!!

It is great to have you join us...but you do know that now the drinks are on you!!!

[paulineward]

Christiana...are you coming over then to mark???

LadyAlex...I just love fruit cake....and recently a 'boiled fruit cake' has been mentioned!!
I cannot bake...I just find it so messy and I am rubbish...so can you bak us one???

[ladyalex]

Well, tonight I have made a chocolate cake and a cherry cheesecake and you're all welcome to try a slice.
I've made the choc cake loads of times, but the cheesecake is new to me..trying one of Nigella's recipes

[paulineward]

Kay...can you imagine what Strix would turn Christiana into??

[paulineward]

Ladyalex...I love cheesecake...yes please!!

[ladyalex]

Hope it turns out OK.
Are you all name dropping here tonight ?

[paulineward]

Well I'm not Ladyalex...cos I know nobody famous nor have met them!!!
But some on here mix in better circles than me!!!...but I reckon 'us lot' are more famous and better to meet anyhow!!!... :-))

[evsajo]

Sorry but am going to turn in now.I don't feel my usual awake self. Have felt a bit "sicky" all day so I will wish you all a very Goodnight and sweet dreams.
I know I have put this on before but for some reason i really like it.
