That, dear friends, is that, and by now most of you have safely arrived in Hartlepool.
Quite a few of you with full marks this week, which is impressive bearing in mind some of those don't yet have the link. Congrats to Maccy, Market Harborough, Archie and Lennie.
Here's the table before we add in the bonus points:
1. Archie 19 2= BBLW 18 Maccy 18 4. Market Harborough 17 5. Eppers 16 6. Gazz 12 7. Ceefer 11 8. Downy 5

As for the link, I did say from the start that the 5 teams should lead you to something 'sandy-esque'....
Barrow Eastleigh Aldershot Chorley Hartlepool
Yes, the link was BEACH!
Well done to Archie, Maccy and Epps for being the only three to identify the link for some bonus points - but has Archie held on to claim the win?...

...Yes!
1. Archie 29 2. Maccy 27 3. Eppers 24 4. BBLW 18 5. Market Harborough 17 6. Gazz 12 7. Ceefer 11 8. Downy 5
Thanks, everyone, for taking part. Hope you enjoyed it.
Congrats to Archie on another fine win, and to Maccy and Epps for taking silver and bronze respectively.
As I'm away next week, back the following week, but then away again the week after, we'll take another short break from quizzing, but I hope to be back to full speed in September.
Thanks again
Sandy

Took me an age to get the link, but glad to have persevered! Well played everyone - especially Archie and Eppers - and thanks, as ever, Sandy, for teasing us to distraction.

Pleased with that after a slow start. Coincidentally, my guess on the Week 1 Monday was Hartlepool and on the Tuesday I tried, "I'll try AFC Fylde and a link of all clubs being part of a coastal community and therefore being close to a Sandy beach." Doesn't say much for me that I didn't get the link until the Tuesday of Week 3!
Well done to Maccy and Eppy and thanks to Sandy for another Wayne Fontana. Have a good break.

Bugger. I went for the coastal link very early but didn't write the names down in order (which would have helped).
Well played guys. Nice one Sandy. Good win Archie.

Well played macc and especially archie on the win.
I rarely get the link, so that's victory enough for me!
Thanks, sandy, and enjoy your break
