KM Links Game - April week 3 results

[seekeerz]

Good morning everyone - I hope by now the sun is shining [ I mean during the day, not necessarily at this minute !! ] as we're getting weird tropical overcast days, with the occasional downpour and of course the humidity - if this is global warming, please take it away !!!

Another quiet day on the links, one very popular one and three - well, I'll leave you to judge for yourself, but for instance, how many times have we put Damascus Steel and decided Kate will never use it ???
Guess what !!!

And these are the links -

Damascus Steel [4]
Elbow Grease [lots]
Dress Circle [4]
Moss Agate [5]

Two of the entrants collected 6 points each for 3 correct matches - Well done LYSANDER & CROFTER,
and the same to BRYHER, CHRISTIANA, CHRISS & JOTO, for scoring 3 with two correct, while a whole swag added one point to their tally.

Roll on the last week of the month and let's hope there's a bumper crop of points for all of us - I'll post this and be back with the Leader Board shortly....S

Thanks Seekerz, and well done to all scorers. Agree with you about Damascus - I never thought she'd use that! Maybe next time we have London the link won't be Pride.....

[eccles]

I persuaded Mrs E not to use Dress circle because of Saturday's clue-so I am not
very popular!!
Kate has again outwitted us......hoist with my own petard,or words to that effect!

[paulineward]

Thanks seekeerz....have a good week.
Well done to the scorers.

[seekeerz]

Yes, I thought the same, eccles - I think she's having a little game with us !!!

Thanks, Steff. Nothing for me again. I thought the whole point of posting the clues was the certainty that Kate would not refer to them in her links! I also left out Dress Circle (and all the varieties of Steel) for this reason.
So extra well done all scorers, especially Lysander. Crofter, of course, can see inside any girl's mind!

[mirandasmum]

Zero for me. Am obviously more on a wavelength with Jan than Kate !


Many thanks Steff.

[Christiana]

Thanks Steff. The Algarve, too, continues to have its share of atypical weather. Atypical is a euphemism for it's raining heavens hard. We are having typical English April weather, except that the rainy periods are real downpours, sometimes with thunder and lightning. All our houses have damp problems and, as the Portuguese rarely put guttering on their buildings, flooding is turning into a regular experience. Apparently we have to wait for the buildings to 'dry out' before we can redecorate, and this weather has now been going on for several months, so who knows when we will be able to apply a lick of paint. Trouble is I'm trying to sell my house and with all the black mould, falling plaster and, outside, peeling paintwork, I don't give much for my chances.

[crofter]

I am delighted to pick up 6 points to add to my previous ZERO.

Have I finally cracked it?

It was nice to see Pauline's name high up on the leader board (She also heads the MM Links Table!)

[ladyalex]

Big fat zero again for me.

Well done to all the points scorers.
Thanks to seekeerz.
