KM Links Game March - Week 1

[seekeerz]

And they're all under starters orders, the red light is flashing, the starters on his platform .....oh come on seekeerz, stop watching the racing and keep your mind on the task at hand.

All my 'sporting secrets' are coming out of the woodwork this weekend, what with V8 cars and horse racing, my old home town's suddenly got very noisy.

Welcome one and all to the first week of the March competition - the aim as usual to match your entries with those Kate Mepham sets in her Saturday Crossword - and we are still looking for that elusive 4 x 4, mind you I thought we might have had one last weekend - four people had three scoring hits, it could very easily been four.

As usual, we are looking for an early starter [ in the absence of Aquagility, who has opted for a lie-in] to post the four words on this site as soon as possible, enter their own selections and then it will be on for young and old.

The competition will close Monday morning with the posting of the second batch of words and then yours truly will go to work and hopefully come up with some results.

I expect to see the return of a few faces who have had special leave for a short while, particularly the O-ices - fancy coming home from the sun to 4 foot of snow, doesn't bear thinking about [ bbbrrrrrrrr] and Argee2 is floating aound as well.

I hope those who have been on the sick list have now recovered, especially Dustybun - hit by a Marmite sandwich - well if you believe that, you'll believe anything-------and I do !!!

Good Luck everyone, watch out for head-high tackles, they will be dealt with severely but just about anything else is fair game - see you later, Steff

good morning all [ and good evening too] what a lovely lot of activity has been going on in my absence

thanks Jan for the clarification on crofter's elevation to the knighthood or not - I have yet to finish the crossword and that was one I hadn't got yet - so two birds with one stone.

lector we do allow partners to lodge an entry - is this what you are referring to ? so long as there are no entries from Fido or Garfield, two sets under one name sre allowable.

Lovely to see new names each week, and the numbers are growing as well - our reputation/notariety is spreading!!

I've had a request from mohill of New Zealand to put an entry in on his behalf - JimJools is well acquainted with him as she kindly forwards the crossword to a number of us - by next week I hope he'll be able to find our thread and post his own entry but for now I'm lodging his selection.

Gosh ! Two of the Hercules link words are a bit obscure this week! A score of two would be quite an achievement, but will leave all of that to Steff (seekeerz). Well here they are:

[sarumite]

Wow! what was I talking about, I think we have our first ever 4 correct guesses!! Over to you Steff !!

[seekeerz]

[sarumite]

[seekeerz]

[Ont-ice]

JimJools I note that seekeerz says you forward the crossword to her and others. I wonder if you'd be so kind as to add my name to your postings.
I'd really appreciate getting a decent crossword from the UK.
Thanks O-ice

[JoolsTwo]

Yes, ofcourse I will. No problem, let me have an email address and I can send you this weeks.

[Ont-ice]

And may I add, thanks a lot.

[JoolsTwo]

It is on it's way O-ice (If you haven't got it already). It was a bit slow this time as you have 2 together. Should be quicker next time. I hope it is ok for you.
