This second week in the reign of King Wickedtongue went perfectly, although it did not bring in the bonus points in the huge numbers that I was expecting. My apologies for misleading the Shrubbery Squad. Following a theme of Wicked Weather, I can now reveal the chosen links were:

Rain FOREST
Thunder BIRD
Flood LIGHT
Storm TROOPER

By way of explanation, a Storm **** is another name for the Missel Thrush (presumably only applied to the male of the said species).

Football continues to be a taboo subject in the croft! I shall have a glass or two this evening to drown my sorrows!

Warm birthday greetings to Joanna Ont-ice. I shall raise a glass or two in your honour this evening!

I was very pleasantly surprised to receive the first predictions from roslyn251254 with an early Christmas present! She came crashing through the RAIN FOREST like a STORM TROOPER to claim FOUR POINTS. This was to be the best performance of the Round, so without any more ado I name her as HOT SHOT OF THE WEEK!
*** Let drums roll and trumpets sound ***
*** Let there be rejoicing near and far ***


The next seven entrants drew blanks and it took ulysses100 with FLOOD LIGHT (at 09.02) to resume the scoring process. Immediately after came Grenmus just beating the clock to score another Two Points with Rain Forest. Also beating the clock was seekeerz with another Flood Light. Not so fortunate were the slightly late entries coming from x-ray, cliffyg, Judith & Dustybun who each picked up One Point. At 10.12, Entrant # 27 (kettledrum) claimed the last scalp with THUNDER BIRD!

Only miss meg & joto made it to the scoreboard in what was a rather quiet week.

The League Table will follow in a few minutes!

The League Table after this first week is:

EIGHT POINTS: ulysses100
SIX POINTS: centrino
FIVE POINTS: cliffyg
FOUR POINTS: Grenmus & Roslyn251254
THREE POINTS: Dustybun, Eiggam, patchett, seekeerz, Shazza & x-ray
I hope there are no errors in the scoring this week and you all turn up to continue the contest next Saturday by accepting the challenge of King Wickedtongue to predict his MM Link Words!

Until then, this is crofter signing off for another week.
See you next week: Same time � Same place

Until then: HAPPY LINKING!

:o)
I thought, crofter, you might be too busy to post the links probably being on the blower making an offer to Mr Ashley as he has put the club up for sale, but thank you.

As for the soi-disant KING wickedtongue I say "big-pooh" you devious so-and-so.

I shall now go and find a corkscrew and open some consolation.
I was rubbish and so was Jim. Thanks for your efforts though crofter and wickedtongue. Not sure if I'll be able to play next week as I' going to be some where around the Chedder Gorge for the weekend. Depends if I can get online.
nul points once again, but "Am I B o v v e r e d?"

Unlike Strix, I couldn't find a corkscrew - but even if I could, please tell me 'Which part of the cardboard carton do you stick it in?'

Supplementary question - When does it run out?

Well done roslyn251254 and ulysses100</b.

Thank you crofterand Wickedtongue

I was rubbish too!!!

Well done roslyn!
thanks wickedtongue and Crofter.....shall go and devise cunning plan for next week.
well done roslynn I scored zero again, have already opened a bottle to cheer me up was a screw top bottle so did not need a cork screw, not sure I know how to put the screw top back on though!! ;-(((((((((
A big 0 for me again too.Perhaps I should keep out of the Shrubbery on Friday night!!!!
Gen 2 another reference to Little Britain!!!!!!
Well done Roslyn, and thanks to Wickedtongue and Crofter for their efforts.
Wow!! Points! Because of the rather idiosyncratic way I play this game - (entirely my own fault!) - they don't come my way very often, so they are specially welcome when I manage to light on the link(s) that everyone else has missed.

Thanks Wicked Tongue for giving me this opportunity, and Crofter for doing the scoring.
Thanks crofter and wicked tongue.
Well done all you winners, especially Roslyn.
Enjoy your week - see you next weekend


Good grief !! points scored - whatever next !!
Only just seen the results- didn't she do well on her first attempt!! As you gathered by my name , yes I was a xmas baby!!
