Good morning to all the early risers and I gather it's been snowing in certain parts of the country..........brrrrrr.

Have been giving some thought to the fact that KM links are posted pretty early for most people [ and thank you to those who provide me with the information ] I'm considering actually posting the results at a later time slot - the poasting would come in about 11.00am your time and perhaps this way it may be easier to find - I realise that by Monday evening the thread can be buried some 8-9 pages back - any ideas from anyone around at this ridiculous time would be very welcome.

Ok shall sit back now for a little while preparing for the onslaught of points to come...................S

Hi Steff I think the link words are as follows.

Rule
Clef
Chiller
Chamber

Hence

Plumb - Rule
Treble - Clef
Spine - Chiller
Echo - Chamber

Hi Jools you're up bright and early - thank you so much for your New Years wishes - did you spend Christmas with your grandson or were you still house-bound with the lurgy ???

And thanks very much for the links S xx

Ok cliffyg where are you hiding this morning ???

usually you're one of the regulars with the matches but perhaps you've gone to lie down wth a stiff drink to settle your nerves - on the otherhand, you could have opened a bottle of bubbly and be well away by now !!!!

that was some start to the new Year - a clean sweep with four correct matches - very well done, you now go onto a very short list of those who have achieved a perfect score and believe me, there's not too many on it.

In view of this spectacular feat, I will delay publishing the results from this week till later, also a lot of people did very well in the 'good guess' dept. so if you've come to check out the Leader Board, come back for a full round up etc in about 3 hours time...........bye for now S
Hi Steff, I'm usually up and about at this time and getting ready for work. Just managed to get the Xword printed of earlier and you'll find you have your copy all ready. :-))

Yes we had Christmas with my son, his wife and our new grandson. He's gorgous, but then I'm biased. :-))) Lurgy had subsided by then thank goodness.

Thinking about posting later from my point of veiw, it's not good. I work on a Monday and don't have access to this site from work. So I wouldn't be able to find the post by the time I got home. As you're the one doing all the work you should do it at your convenience though.

Many thanks Jools - that will give me something to do this evening - TV has gone to the 'dogs' if you don't like sport and we're not really night owls so putting a DVD on is a bit pointless - we're usually both asleep before its over.

Actually, there's no reason why I couldn't post twice if I did a cut/paste - my lateral thinkings not working too well just yet
cheers, Steff
its cold and snowy in essex
it is a bonus being able to print off the crossword but it is playing havoc with my sleep
Question Author


well, it's definitely not playing havoc with your brain !!! that's some entry so congratulations !!!

Wow !! did this year get off to a flyer !!!

The first entry, from cliffyg made a complete clean sweep of all four matches and all the bonus points as well, plus an extra 2points and a place on the list of those who have done it before and there's not too many of them.

From there we went staright to the 'good guess' department and there were quite a few of these, all scoring three points for their efforts, namely miss meg [!!] Christiana, fordward, chriss, wickedtongue & teacher1

And a whole heap more with two points to their names -
lysander, london_lassy, grannydi, Chiefpanda, rosly251254, Jim of JimJools, crofter, Dustybun [hi there]
Mrs E & eccles, gassbagertie [ Gill ] Shazza & ChrisHewit &
Magyar
Must say I loved the way the eccles and Hewit families shared the points out between each other !!!

A further 20 entrants all opened their account for the new year and just a few of us are a little slow off the mark so far.

The Leader Board looks like this

10 points - cliffyg

and will all those with 3, 2 or 1 point each fall in to a nice tidy line behind the leader and now march off, singing "We are the Champions' or something similar !!!

While they're all doing that, a quick word to ulysses - so saddened to hear of Deefa's passing - all of us who love and have lost pets know how you are feeling, theirs is such a selfless love and we are the better for it - this is the only glitch in the system. You have my deep sympathy, love Steff

and apologies to the gasbaggertie household for misspelling their alias - I sometimes can't read my own shorthand [ trouble is, neither can anyone else }
ulysses our best wishes too
We are both retired and sadly lost our old lab (at 15) a couple of years ago. We determined not to have another but soon yielded and now have a new lease of life chasing a young lab around on long walks.
Many congratulations to ClffyG for his full house with bonus.
How many times has this been done before?

Looks like we need a dog!!
Don't get excited, anyone - this is just a sort of spare wheel to keep in the boot in case it may be needed!

What a score, cliffyg! I got Spine chiller. Treble clef and Echo chamber were clearly options. But I would never have guessed Plumb rule. Is that the same as a spirit level?

Don't do this again, cliffyg, or the rest of us will just give up altogether!

HNY, all. Aq.

'allo, 'allo, just what have you been up to AQ, that you running around on yer spare tyre ???
wow cliffyg congratulations! Mind you I think you should have got an extra five points for managing your clean-sweep score as the very first entrant. Let's face it - you can't get any better than that!

Hi there to you too Steff and Happy New Year. Thanks for trying to think of us late-in-the-day bods. I have gone back seven pages and it gets slower and slower. I can almost guarantee that by evening I would not be able to get the results, as has happened a few times in the past.

AQ - so sorry to see you've been hyphenated. Hope you got it done on the National Health!! :0)
Thank you to everyone who has passed on their condolences to me -- it is greatly appreciated.
