Good Evening AB Linkers, everywhere!

Welcome to this fifth and final week in the reign of Lady Alex, who is about to set the seal on a most entertaining month of MM Links. After her initial panic of winning at her first attempt, she reports that she has thoroughly enjoyed the experience of being in the driving seat. Whoever takes the title for March, remember that there is as much (or as little) support as is needed for the new champion to meet the task of setting the April Links. You will not be simply "thrown to the lions"!

Talking of the lions, how is the Shrubbery Squad tonight? Well, I hope, and in good spirit ~ or should it be the other way round? The "good spirit" will soon be inside the Shrubbery Squad!

This will also be the last week for the sister game KM Links, where entrants try to outwit Kate Mepham of DT fame by predicting the Monday Links to Saturday's four chosen words.

If you wish to chance your arm at both games, look out for the starting times tomorrow on AnswerBank. That's about 06.30am for KM Links and exactly 09.00am for MM Links. Newcomers are always welcome. Usually over 50 ABers take part in the games, and no-one takes it seriously! [If you believe that you'll believe anything]

Me? I am crofter!
Keeper of the scores. I'm the only one with an abacus!

See you all tomorrow for the final stages of a well-fought contest.

Isn't the conversation a bit civilised when there is no booze about???
Wait until next week...when I am up to drinking again!!!

Where are all the men?
Pauline,

"Where has Strix gone???"

Strix is not quite as dissolute as he likes to pretend? I had been cooking supper, after that earlier posting, for my wife and our two sub-twenty-year old children. In fact I can hear the young ones in the next door room chatting and watching some rubbish programme on the box before I go and kick them, almost immediately, upstairs to bed. Bit difficult with the daughter as she is nearly 19 and over 6 foot tall and about to go the University of her choice as she has 3 to choose from and is, therefore, somewhat cleverer than her parents.

Now where's that bottle?
it is Paulines fault she is stuck in bed, (well that is what she tells us)
she gets 10on the trivia (so how ill is she???)
no we miss her witt
stix has had a drink and gone
I have to go soon too as steve is in soon and up again at 5am!!! so no time to chat on line sorry
jan
I was thinking the same, we haven't got you to lead us astray !!
I'm off too, feeling a little peckish so will go and get a bite for the two of us, thank you all for your company, see you in the morning.
Pauline

"Am sat propped up in bed, Jan, with laptop and a couple of crosswords."

Now, Pauline, if you were propped up in bed with a lap (male) dancer would you have a couple of cross words?!!!
Good night girls!

Here is a top up for you Strix...

I have a daughter like yours Strix...awaiting University, has been accepted by her favoured ones.
Studying Economics...good at it too...she has the Economist delivered to her...paid from my bank account!!
Quite right Strix...treading grapes sounds totally different also!!!
Hello, it's quiet in here tonight. How are you Pauline??
Missing the Booze Jools!!!
Pauline, I needed that top up, thank you.

Have you tasted Patxaran a.k.a. Pacharan, it is, dangerously addictive - somewhere between Port and sloe gin. Absolutely delicious.

Which University is your's thinking of, our's is possibly going to St A's in Scotland.
Oh dear, I'll abstain tonight then, I don't want to make you feel worse Pauline. I hope you're behaving yourself and resting. I bet you're fed up with people telling you that. :-)
Hello everyone, you have obviously missed me because you are all behaving yourselves!!!!Have just got back from Brother in laws as it's his birthday today. Had an enjoyable evening, its nice to go out sometimes unexpectedly.
Pauline I hope you are behaving yourself, otherwise you are in BIG trouble!!!!
Don't abstain on my account Jools!!...have an extra one!!

That drink Strix describes sounds lovely...will look out for that!!

Strix..she needs to decide between Manchester and Salford.
She will have the best of both worlds then...she can stay on Campus and is within 8-9 miles of home ...Sunday Lunch, washing etc...all sorted!!!
Here comes trouble now...Kay's here!!

She's been bullying me this week!!
Well...think I will take the pills and turn in..up early tomorrow!

Good Luck with the links everyone!!!

Going to get my hot chocolate now!...boring...on a Friday night as well!!
Pauline, beware!

A friend of mine has pointed out to me, who has two sons, and three step-children, all University age or just over, is that, having one's child at a University close to home with a nice mummy, such as I am sure you are, who is a good cook is that you will land up with not just your daughter but with twenty of her mates (and their washing!) to enjoy not just for your company but also your cooking and washing machine at least once every three weeks!!
Pauline how come you go to bed when I get here!!!!!!You really are scared of me aren't you!!!!!
Seriously I hope you get on OK tomorrow and I am glad you are letting your sister drive you. Take care and have a good nights sleep and wake up feeling much better. Love Kay
Hi Strix...I know what you mean..

The thought has already crossed my mind!!
...several times!!! :-(
