The KM Links Game - March results

[seekeerz]

Good morning everyone - still getting my head around your changed time, no idea what time breakfast will be but at least the Herculis arrived an hour earlier this morning !!

Well Kate definitely decided to stretch our brains for us this week and some of us did very well under pressure as you'll soon see, the links being -

Golden Eagle
Velvet Revolution [ I can hear cheers in the background !! ]
Cathedral City
Brent Goose [ and in this case, geese ]

There were three Star Turns this morning, namely from LYSANDER, OWLLADY & STEVIE, all of whom collected 6 points for their three correct matches and an extra mention for CROFTER & KETTLEDRUM who both predicted a Velvet Revolution - there might well be one after this !!

20 players scored three points for their 2 correct matches and a further 21 added a point to their tally, so all in all, not a bad day's work - the Leader Board will follow and you'll be able to see where you finished up - not that you don't know now !!

Congratulations all round, a good tally after a quieter month, let's hope the next is a good one too.

Well that brings this month to a close and next Saturday sees the start of a new competition, so please meet me then when we reconvene, till then have a good week and cheers for now, skz

Congratulations lysander

Yippee, first time I've played and scored a point.

Showed this quiz to my OH and as he likes puzzles, I'm hoping we can join in on a regular basis. Thank you for posting this on such a regular basis Seekz x

[seekeerz]

well done you too, alba - it's fun and a bit of a challenge as well [ keeps us off the streets at least ] xx

[albaqwerty]

I like seeing the answers on the Monday, as an answer can throw up a phrase which either has been buried in the murkiness of one's brain, or an answer which has never been heard of, which in turn sends me off scuttling for more information.
Brilliant way to keep me off the streets at least :D

[lysander]

Many thanks for your hard work.One day one of my last minute swoops will finish me off!! Regards LYSANDER

[boxtops]

Steff - thank you for allowing the Geese - otherwise a bleak score for me, so I am pleased with my point! - I zilched in the MM Links completely this week, Must Do Better!

[patchett]

albaqwerty,have you tried the MM link game?Starts 9-00am prompt(extra points in first two minutes)and results on Sunday about 7-00pm.All explained in posting before 9-00am

[albaqwerty]

patch, steff kindly invited me to join in that one too.

If i'm up in time for it, I'd love to give that a try too.

That is, I'll not be in time for any extra points :)

alba xx

[Handbaglady]

I can hardly believe I ended up with six points, a mere 5 points behind lysander. Well done everyone especially lysander. See you all next week.

[Rose Maybud]

Well done, lysander - even adding my score & No 1 Offspring's we can only equal yours :)

Thanks to Steff, have a good week everybody!

[kettledrum]

Gosh! What a lovely surprise! It must be years since I last scored a point. Does that mean Strix is now leading the Freefall Club? Thanks Steff for organising it all. xx

[seekeerz]

Not only leading it, kettledrum .... he IS it !!

[paulineward]

Well done Lysander...and many thanks to Steff.

[ladyalex]

One measly point in the whole month......sulks.....

Thanks seekeerz, hoping for better next month. :-))

[Muzz]

Well done, Lysander! Thanks to Seekeerz for the scoring and posting. A mere 3 points for me....... must do better next time!!! Cheers, Muzz

[BigMac]

Congratulations, Lysander!

LadyAlex - that's better than I did on MM links this month!

Now, how will the next weeks treat us as April is, of course, the cruellest month... ... ...

And thanks, Steff.

[tearinghair]

Thanks, seekerz, and well done to all scorers. One point for me this month but what the heck, the sun's been shining all day and the world looks a different place!

[Christiana]

Thanks Seekerz, congrats. to Lysander. Don't know if you'll see this BigMac, but that is one of my favourite quotes. It's so poignant. Sometimes it's less painful to be numb than to start to hope again. (For those who don't know the full quote "April is the cruellest month, breeding lilacs out of the dead ground") Apologies if the quote isn't completely accurate.
