This second week of the reign of the Monarch of the Glen went much better score-wise and I can now reveal the chosen Link Words of gen2 were:

Grouse MOOR
Whisky CHASER
CUCKOO Pint
Heavy DUTY

In summary, all links were spotted by 09.07am and a new frontrunner has emerged. However those in great haste gained little, since the points mainly fell to Entrants #6 to #13. First to strike was evsajo (she of the wiggly sleeper) with CUCKOO PINT (devious!) to be closely followed by jan1956 within two-minutes to score with the same word!

Between these two came the GROUSE MOOR of paulineward who always seems to be among the points when inspired by subjects of an alcoholic nature! She was followed with the same prediction and within the permitted period by ulysses100 & bangor to score bonus points. In the midst of all this came freebi2 looking for a WHISKY CHASER (and this being only 7 minutes past 9 in the morning!). Disgusting, I say. Should join AA and go TT (ie join the Automobile Association and visit the Isle of Man)!

BUT bang on 09.07 came the Star of the Week when bangor made a DOUBLE hit with DOUBLE Bonus Points! CHEERS all round!!

A laudable attempt was made at 09.08 by lysander who arrived with TWO hits but only ONE extra Bonus Point!

League Table (so far ~ after two weeks of five))

FOUR POINTS: bangor
THREE POINTS: JMR27 & lysander
Nine others have amassed a total of two points and are well placed to strike next week

However, a word of warning to gen2, the Shrubbery Squad know little about a lot of things but they know a LOT about drink! What will happen next week has everybody guessing, so come prepared to do bloody battle and equipped for mortal combat. [Marmite sarnies at ten paces]

Until then this is crofter signing off for another week.

LONG LIVE THE SPIRIT OF THE AB-LINKERS
(Whatever the shape of the bottle it comes in!)

:o)
Many thanks Crofter , nil points for me - again !!! Well done those that spotted the link words .
Well done everyone - some of you at least are picking up the vibes. 19 people scored points this week (only 11 last week) and 29 points were gained (only 15 last week). Your improvement shows you are learning (learning what though, I'm not quite sure).

So until the same time, same place next weekend, Cheers.

Thanks, gen2 and crofter. But I don't know why I bother, really I don't !
gen2...we're on to you!!!...Crofter, whatever are you implying??...says me sat witha glass of red...ribena of course!!! :-)
I couldn't leave you without sharing a little culture with you. Last week it was Keats. This week it is Paul Simon's song based on the rhyme about the cuckoo:



April come she will

When streams are ripe and swelled with rain

May she will stay

Resting in my arms again

June she'll change her tune

In restless walks she'll prowl the night

July she will fly

And give no warning to her flight

August die she must

The autumn winds blow chilly and cold

September I remember

A love once new has now grown old

Thanks gen2 and Crofter. Its nice to get some points at last !!.Crofter, it was wriggly not wiggly !!! Well done Pauline, I think we're on a winning streak. Look forward to next Friday in the shrubbery so will see you all then,best wishes.
It has been a lean few weeks with nul points so it's good to be back in the running again. Bring on week 3 !
Thanks to gen2 for the link words, and, as ever to the trusty crofter with his abacus.......
Definitely joining the freefall club - nil points again, but congratulations all who scored. If you don't give me one or two I can score with next week, Gen 2, I'll hit you with my marmite sarnie! YOU�VE BEEN WARNED!
thanks crofter and Gen2 at least I am off the mark now. We are ready and waiting Gen2 us laydees will suss you out I am sure as crofter said marmite sarnies at 10 paces
and Pauline my glass is empty come on I demand a refill
jan
Failed again miserably, I don't know why I bother.

One week I will astound you all and get maximum points, that will be the same week that England wins the World Cup again and a British tennis player wins Wimbledon !!!!!!!

Pebbles Don't despair! I see you here every week with your enthusiastic predictions reaping scant reward!

However, your turning up week after week is one of the reasons that I turn up week after week (come rain or shine).

:0)
I may not have got any points - yet again - but I think I've got you sussed now Gen2 ! Wait for next week everyone........or perhaps the week after....or even the week after that!
Thanks Crofter for standing by to deal with my score. Although I didn't trouble you this week, make sure you've got your pencil sharpened next Sunday.
Yet another big fat zero! Thanks Gen 2 and Crofter, although Crofter I see you have set your cap at Pebbles this week!!! You are such a tart!!!

Blackberry or Apple Tart? Rhubarb, rhubarb!
Thanks Gen 2 and Crofter, no points yet again, see you next week.
In the words of Victor Meldrew - I don't belieeeeve it.
Well, at least the O-ices got one they can share, thanks to the efforts of the man of the house.
Thanks Gen for another stunning performance.
Thanks also to Crofter. That old abacus is really getting a workout is it not?
Good Night all.
Well done to bangor and the other good scorers. Thanks to gen2 for the challenge and the lyrics, and to crofter for the 'sums' though I'm not bothering him much.
Different tactics called for next week, I think !
