MM Links Solutions January 2009 [Week 2]
9 Answers
This second week in the reign of Queen Meg went so smoothly that it is hard to believe that two weeks' ago she was pleading novice status! I am pleased to announce that this time her chosen links based on a Sports theme were:
Foot SOLDIER
CRYSTAL Ball
CRAZY Golf
Club CLASS
Yet another interesting collection ~ indicating a setter who could be difficult to pin down!

No best answer has yet been selected by crofter. Once a best answer has been selected, it will be shown here.
For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Before scoring the entries, I would like to commend Strix for being able to get his predictions in (in spite of sustaining a broken leg). Such is the dedication of the Shrubbery Squad! �Nuf said! Needless to say, he still failed to trouble the abacus!
In view of the clientele, I did expect the third link to fall first ~and I was not disappointed. Christiana led regulars Dinkypuzzled, lysander, cliffyg & Grenmus for a game of CRAZY GOLF for TWO POINTS each. Meanwhile paulineward came marching in with the not-so-obvious FOOT SOLDIER for another TWO POINTS.
Although there were several entrants scoring steadily on these two particular links, we had to wait until 09.14am and Entrant #24 in the familiar guise of kettledrum with her CRYSTAL BALL (borrowed from Mystic Meg) before the double points began to flow again. The last link (once again) went to the wily x-ray who travelled in by CLUB CLASS to claim the last Hit!

Of all the 41 entries received, only two people managed to score double Hits and they were SHAZZA & twix123. Therefore, I should like to nominate them as JOINT HOT SHOTS OF THE WEEK!
*** Let trumpets sound and cannon roar ***
*** Let the people cheer and shout �Encore� ***
The League Table after this second week is:
SIX POINTS: Dinkypuzzled
FOUR POINTS: Christiana, kettledrum & lysander
TWO POINTS: Shazza, cliffyg, Dustybun, evsajo, fordward, Grenmus, jools, pauline, twix123, ulysses100 & x-ray
I cannot wait to see what Queen Meg has in store for us next week.
Until next weekend, this is crofter signing off for another week.
See you next Saturday: Same time � Same place � Same setter
Until then: HAPPY LINKING!
