The KM Links Game - January week 4 and results

[seekeerz]

Good morning everyone - and what I wouldn't give for a snowfall and an open fire !! still hot and humid, though a change is supposed to be somewhere around ... my guess is, we've had it and no -one noticed !!

A nice little batch to round out the month and a number of players took the advantage and racked up quite a few points -

Alms House
Stick Insect
Neck Lace
Thorn Apple

Eight in fact, who picked up 6 points each for three correct matches, I was quite expecting a 'full house' to pop up, but that didn't appear ...never mind, there's always next month which is with us next Saturday ... so we reconvene same place, same time [??] for the first round.

Before I head for the results sheet, I'm sure we all send our sincere condolences to lysander on the recent loss of her husband and our thoughts are with you in a difficult time.

Hearty congratulations to all the points scorers, we seem to be settling back into the swing off things now the holidays are over, so it's onward and upwards from here !! Steff

[twix123]

Thanks Steff. I keep saying I should go for first instincts rather than changing my mind at the last minute!

[rockfordill]

Cannot believe it - 2nd on MM and now 2nd on KM - must be
something I ate ?!
Thanks for all your hard work Steff and many condolences to Lysander.

[tearinghair]

Thanks seekerz. A better month for me on both games, maybe I've turned the corner after a very poor few months! Well done to all scorers.

[Strix]

Phew, got away with it!

Had a horrible suspicion that BUCKthorn would leave me dangling in mid-air!

[roslyn251254]

Well done rockfordill, you've done very well on both this month!
Thanks to kettledrum & gen2 as always for all your hard work!

[Prescott]

Thank you Steff for all your hard work, and our sincere condolences to Lysander at this sad time.

Thinking of you lysander at this difficult time.

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft star-shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

What a win ! It's been a long time since I've been towards the top of the board -- and it feels good ! However , tempered by hearing the news of lysander's loss ; my deepest condolences.
