The Km Links Game - November Week 1 Results

[seekeerz]

Good morning everyone - a bit dull and dreary for mad Monday, I think it will improve and they promise us a warm week .....will wait and see just how 'warm' ...this could turn into our first heatwave for the Summer ...it does things like that ...sneaks up on you and goes 'bang !!'

Well we survived the links - not too badly in fact -

York Shire
Iceland Poppy (I'm still spitting about this ..they're one of my favourites !!)
Norway Spruce
East Sussex

And the STAR TURN came from LYSANDER who is starting out the new month in fine form ...( but how did you miss out on Spruce ?? )

Lots of 3's and 1's for a number of people so we've got off to a good beginning, let's hope it remains that way ....

A very brief LEADER BOARD ....

6 points - lysander

3 points - anikomo, brizzer, Doof45, freebi2, HandBagLady, jillywiskas, Muzz, & seekeerz

1 point - 34 players


So congratulations to all the points scorers ...a very good start and lovely to welcome back FREEBI2 - one of the original crew and also MALLYH who we haven't seen for a little while.

If anyone has seen either ULYSSES100 or KAWAKIRI please let them know they're missed and I'd like them back ....I fear ulysses100 is probably chasing a rare plant all over Greece and some other sunny spot...nice work mate !!

Anyway I hope to see you all next Saturday for round 2, till then stay safe...Cheers Steff

Well done to all the point scorers.
Back to nil points for me this week ;-(

I can't believe the answer was Yorkshire as it was in the clue.

[seekeerz]

It was only the city of York mentioned, danny, ....being a wake up to some of the tricky bits does help !!

Mind you it was a lucky guess for me !!

I don't know how lysander does it! Is he telepathic?

[lysander]

Many thanks Seekeerz. "Spruce" never entered my mind .In fact the other three were first thoughts which is a bit scary as I have cut down on the magic potion. Regards Lysander

Thanks Mamyalynne and Scorpiojo

Which crossword does this refer to - I know it's been mentioned before but I can't remember

[Mamyalynne]

Saturday's Telegraph GK (Kate Mepham) , Linked to today's Herculis.

[MargoTester]

Thanks Mamya - not that it really helps:-)

[Mamyalynne]

If you read the clues posted here on Saturday, you don't need to have the puzzle to have a stab at guessing what the linked words will be on Monday.

[MargoTester]

Yes I always do that. I just wondered if you did that particular crossword each week it would give you an insight into the compilers mind but heigh ho I will just keep stabbing in the dark. It's good fun anyway.

[Mamyalynne]

It is fun yes.

Being born and bred of Gods own County I was so tempted to go for Shire but settled for the transatlantic Trump. As for Spruce well there is no consistency with this lady. Well done all the point scorers and respect lysander. My average over this year has being five... hope I can keep that Babylon going.

Thank you Seekeerz, keep warm ;-)
