Tel GK/Herculis Links Game : December Week 3

[sarumite]

A short reminder that the object of the game is to predict Monday's Herculis link words (from Telegraph) with Saturday's link words given at the end of this thread.

Rules and the method of points allocation is fully explained in the riddles section and can be reached by clicking on the link below.

Of course "crofter" will contribute his usual wizardry with the numerics once Monday's link words are known, assuming his hard drive doesn't once again crack under the extreme pressure!

Following a magnificent sprint last week to overtake the pack we have an outright leader in "Christiana" with a total of three points. However, no less than 12 ABers are snapping at her heels with two points each!

Saturday's link words will need to be posted below before entries can be accepted, so as soon as one of you has them available, I would be grateful if you post them accordingly.

Thanks, and good luck to you all (S).
