Fao The K M Players

[seekeerz]

Nothing to get exited about - just bringing you all up to speed - my current problem with the Telegraph has not as yet been resolved, so I'll be relying yet again on Danny to post the clues when he's able.

Thanks, Danny. :))

[Buenchico]

Blast!

I was looking forward to
(a) being beaten by Mamya with the initial part ; and
(b) going on to score nil points yet again in the second bit ;-)

[tonyav]

LOL, my story also Chris.

[Buenchico]

So it's not just a love of beer that we've got in common then, Tony ;-)

[Mamyalynne]

I can hear you.

[tonyav]

No, Chris.
quick hide, she's seen us

[twix123]

Thanks Steff, but I think that I should have stayed at my Zoom pub instead of rushing home to try to beat Mamya and Chris :-))

[seekeerz]

Oh dear, sorry to have deprived you all of your midnight shenanigans - hopefully all will be resolved this time next week xx

[tonyav]

Hiya Steff, hope things are going well down there in Aussie.

[Buenchico]

Things were probably going well for Steff, Tony, until she started my crossword. I can hear her curses from here!

;-)

[tonyav]

Ah I see, have you slipped a few tricky ones in Chris.
Post a link please and I'll have a go, Chris.

[Buenchico]

Any/all feedback appreciated. JimF usually does my crossword in 10 minutes but I slowed him down to half an hour with the last one I set. Caran tends to take a bit longer but still manages to finish them. (She needed 2 hours to complete my latest one). Steff has, shall we say, been known to take somewhat longer over them ;-)

[tonyav]

Many thanks, Chris. I'll print it off.

Steff has, shall we say, been known to take somewhat longer over them ;-)

I'll put that down to the time difference then, Chris ;-)

[Buenchico]

Ah, I'd not allowed for that, Tony ;-)

[seekeerz]

I wish you two would not talk behind my back!! As yet I haven’t even downloaded the crossword - Saturday is my puzzles day and in the absence of the G K, I aim to spoil myself with Chris’ latest.
Given that we’ve had three days of solid wind and rain we’re feeling a bit shell-shocked but grateful - think we’ve lost summer again, we had a 41d Sunday, then rain - who knows what’s going on !!

[Mamyalynne]

They have a habit of talking about you as if you're not here, naughty boys.

[Buenchico]

Your weather is a bit different to ours, Steff. (Yes, I know that it's been snowing in Tasmania this week but I don't think that you're anywhere near to there!).

We've currently got the following 'amber' snow warning in place for Sunday:
"A band of heavy snow is likely to bring widespread travel disruption
- Long delays and cancellations on bus, rail and air travel could occur
- Roads may become blocked by deep snow, with many stranded vehicles and passengers
- Long interruptions to power supplies and other services, such as gas, water, telephone and mobile phone coverage could occur"

Normally I'd definitely decide not to venture out with such a warning in place but I've got to drive 6 kilometres to get my Covid jab on Sunday evening. Oh well c'est la vie ;-)

[tonyav]

As Chris say's pretty rubbish weather expected oop here over the next few days, Steff.

Best of luck tomorrow night, Chris.

[seekeerz]

I’ve noticed that, about those bad boys - just as well we’re so tolerant.
Hope you’re keeping well, mamya xx

[Buenchico]

Thanks, Tony. I'll probably need it!

[Buenchico]

Tony:
Have you noticed? Steff and Mamya keep talking about us behind out backs! Terrible, ain't it?

;-)
