1:41 am

lol

1:42 am

anyway, really awful weather is predicted again for tomorrow, a series of disturbances are coming through one after the other. Now instead of worrying that there isn't enough water for the salmon, we will be dodging them on the roads again!

3:42 am

thx angb

3:43 am

I thought I was doing well to find one ps7... don't know what the other one is...

3:44 am

One is a stringed instrument, the other, a past tense verb.

3:45 am

3:46 am

ah, it was measly with a ps that I was missing... :)

4:46 am

4:52 am

hmm

4:52 am

surely ni5,14 must contain the x to add up?

4:53 am

i've tried every combination with no result

4:53 am

no wait my mistake

4:53 am

5,12 doesn't need it

4:53 am

Ric no it doesn't

4:54 am

Think of another way to spell does

4:55 am

ah got it

5:43 am

a very bad spell cliffopa - my sympathies

5:43 am

oh no cliff! I'm so sorry. I know how deeply you hold your friends.

5:43 am

he deserves the same type death that in dished out

5:44 am

There were two peanuts walking down the road...

5:44 am

Apparently the sentence was for hanging but he requested a firing squad

5:44 am

yes douglas?

5:44 am

Yes Douglas???

5:45 am

Ah, Eva, you haven't heard that joke...it was in the Monty Python "Killer Joke" sketch...

5:46 am

sinu

5:46 am

sinur

5:46 am

5:46 am

Once a joke so funny it would cause the hearer to die laughing was introduced into warfare, the Germans developed their own jokes...

5:46 am

ummmm "firing squad" give them all bulletts and aim for none lethal points of the body

5:46 am

oh come on Eva!!!!

5:46 am

The German killing joke was...There were two peanuts walking down the road, and one was a ******

5:47 am

don't get it

5:48 am

It's a stupid pun on the word "assaulted"

5:49 am

okay-think you had to be there(-:

5:49 am

LOL Doug I've actually heard it

5:50 am

So what made it doubly hilarious was that after hearing that joke, and hearing that it was supposed to be so funny that it would cause people to die laughing, people would think "that joke isn't really that funny..." which is pretty funny...Got that?

5:51 am

There were people hoping that **** would become the other other white meat, but it didn't turn out that way...

5:52 am

Douglas said a word

5:53 am

oops...

5:54 am

And that **** prius nuisance who is just now rather rife, the judicial humorist, I've got him on the list...

7:37 am

a clue for ru4/6...the LAST one....please?

7:38 am

When I was in Edinburgh in May of this year, I brought back a copy of The Slimy Stuarts for my children, who took great joy in it. There's a picture of Guy Fawkes on the cover, getting ready to light the gunpowder, when he's confronted by a group of soldiers. Guy is saying "Er, penny for the guv?" I don't get that...

7:38 am

7:46 am

Those ur's are new to me...

My icon has been appropriately updated...

I cannot believe there can be 5 'normal' words starting with that lone p at the bottom.

7:47 am

7:48 am

i'm still missing one of those

7:53 am

Good morning everyone. And thanks for the clues to the tr's, they were driving me crazy.

7:53 am

Hey, mom, msree

7:53 am

Got it!!!...thanx all

yw msree and good morning

7:53 am

Hi Charm, long time no post (me that is.) Katy, I love your icon.

thanks msree. it fits me to a T.

7:54 am

Good morning msree

7:54 am

What, you're cool in purple and red? Did you make it or find it?

7:55 am

Morning Douglas.

i found it on the international red=hatter's website.

i spend more time at my puter than anywhere else.

7:56 am

THe local Red Hat club meets at a restaurant near my baby's preschool. I love watching the ladies come in with their best gear and gorgeous hats.

7:56 am

Wish I looked that good in a hat.

we have so much fun. everyone looks good in a hat, you just gotta remember that it is for grins, not looks. Our motto is "Gaudy is Good!"

7:57 am

And I live in the South, where hats are almost revered. (and no one looks bad in a hat)

I'm missing one PS (plus 83 other words)...I have the biblical song, plural, past tense and "Hey, YOU". Any clues for the remaining one?

p + a spice (not pepper) and add a 3 point letter.

Katy, if you mean a seasoning, the sodium chloride doesn't work?

7:59 am

you need the hook letter after the spice matty

I do mean a seasoning. p (not peppery, if your food is too much this, add a potato to remove some of it)

according to dictionary.com, it's an ancient stringed instrument. my grands know it as the name of a character that sings bible songs.

you know what, i missed a charracter. you have to "attempt" at the end before the big count character. sorry

Thanks Katy - that did it for me!

8:02 am

I've always seen that word with an e toward the end....

sry for the confusion. must needs to eats something, mind getting confused . . . but then that happens at my age! :D

bbl all. happy babbling.

8:03 am

Katy, your clue was good. I'm the one who kept trying to put extra letters in.

8:03 am

bye katy

Bye!

8:03 am

Bye KAty

8:03 am

bye Katy

8:04 am

Bye Katy.

8:06 am

8:08 am

8:09 am

um...went to ask.com and looked up pirate woman.

I thought it was Guy Fawlks theme?

8:10 am

8:10 am

Ok, I have 50 words, time for breakfast. Bye for now.

8:10 am

guten tag alles!

8:15 am

8:16 am

8:16 am

8:16 am

bbl

8:16 am

Hi Tasmin

8:16 am

hi msree

8:16 am

bye flosey

8:16 am

bye FLosey

good day ,all. lol at least athat's what my mind cpould come up with at this ungodly hour of the day.

Msree - your icon rocks. I saw Serenity again yesterday. "Eating people alive - when does that get fun" :D

thanks evanonut

8:17 am

lol smooth. try 'allen' ;)

reee, it was a great movie... if you like things that are dark. Almost a mix of the Crow with Orson Wells' 1984

8:17 am

Thanks matty, I love Jayne!

8:18 am

;-)

thanks tasmin. lol

He's super, isn't he. Wonderfully amoral!

I love the scene with River standing amongst the dead Reavers.

8:18 am

Whoa smooth, that would be dark. I wanted to catch it in theaters, just couldn't make it.

ironically, I just saw it last night, before I realized that today was guy fawkes day.

Hey Smooth - great minds think alike. I actually think I like the film better than the source comic.

Have never seen the comic eiter. lol

but it was a really good movie

8:20 am

Watch it matty, isn't that sacrilege? ; )

Yep, Ms! Here, read this :D http://dvd.ciao.co.uk/Serenity_DVD__Re view_5539227

8:22 am

matty, the part I liked best about that scene with River, is when you see her tightening her grip to deal with the soldiers. I'm off to read your suggestion.

8:22 am

mmm muffin 'n custard

That was super Ms. I should mention, I wrote the article you are about to read :D

8:27 am

Hi all, wonder if you have media arguments about animals and fireworks - every year at this time the same arguments arise - lots of Hindus live in and around Durban and Diwali just a week before Guy Fawkes - must say less fireworks every year - especially big bangs - same in your countries??

8:28 am

i don't think animals should be allowed to light fireworks ;-)

Oh yeah - and always a spate of injuries.

actually our main celebration in my city is getting bigger and bigger: http://www.rhythmandbooms.com/index.ph p

8:32 am

kids seem able to buy fireworks that are almost sticks of dynamite - also lots of injuries - arguments is fireworks should only be allowed at organised events - not at private homes

8:32 am

I always get fireworks at home when i leave the toilet seat up.

8:33 am

yes Dachef that deserves serious fireworks

8:34 am

6 hours later and still need to find 52

hussein just recieved the death sentence

8:36 am

instrument, industry, sultry. There, got it out of my system. If I type them in this box they might work.

8:36 am

hi, everyone....yesterday was an awesome day

8:37 am

I didn't get instrument and industry, but I wanted sultry to be in the grid, someone sultry with morals lower than their knickers...

8:37 am

Hi, angel

8:38 am

That's in Dachef's profile...heh

8:38 am

hi angel, what happened yesterday?

8:38 am

I'm waiting for the day we have Welsh Babble!

8:39 am

charm, I got to go out yesteday and buy baby clothes and supplies for my expected grandchild. such fun!

8:39 am

Then there will be 470 words in the grid, no matter what the letters are...

8:39 am

The grid would have to be all l's and a couple of y's.

8:39 am

tetris is in the grid

8:40 am

it was our 8th wedding anniversary, and my husband gave me the most elegant diamond ear studs, and a teardrop pendant with five sapphires borderd by diamonds in white gold.

8:41 am

wow, angel, an amazing day indeed! :-)

8:41 am

matty, you still around? Sorry it took so long to read the review, I got sidetracked by some toast. Nice review. I always enjoy hearing what sci-fi fans think of the film. I'm a Browncoat and have no objectivity whatsoever.

8:41 am

Angel, I would bet that buying stuff for the grandbaby was more fun than the diamonds!

I'm here - just come back from puttin gup the laundry

morning

8:42 am

chores? what a bad example you are!

Glad you liked the review - I am such a fisher for complements :D

8:43 am

Hey Smiley

8:43 am

we spent the entire day together, and it was so good to have time to look back at where we've been and plan for the future. I loved buying the baby things. it's something I didn't get to do for my first grandchild, because of circumstances that I had no control over.

8:43 am

Morning Smiley.

8:43 am

I bought a bassinnette, bottles, outlet covers, blankets...wonderful fun.

8:45 am

The best thing someone gave me when my son was born was an ice pack. It's shaped like a pig face, covered with fuzzy 'fur'. Keep in the freezer and put on boo-boos as needed.

all right people... time to head off to work. I'll see you all later

8:47 am

bye smooth, sorry about the work thing. ; )

8:47 am

my duaghter uses disposable diapers...Dylan is almost out of diapers now, and has never had a cloth diaper on his bottom in his life....but I still bought her a dozen cloth diapers...they can be used so many ways

9:02 am

Hey, TO (sorry if I'm slow on the uptake, modem troubles....)

hey charm!

On my first cup of coffee so can't think up a good clue, but the def for the te 7/36 is a yellow, crystalline, water-insoluble solid, C7H5N5O8, used as a chemical indicator and as a detonator and bursting charge in small-caliber shells (word reminds me of a te fish we have in the grid often).

hi bunny...*thinks has she forgotten anyone*

9:04 am

well time for me to hit the road gotta be at work by 10:30 for all the shoppers that are just beating the door down

9:04 am

Hi bunny, bye faerie

9:09 am

Huh? Did I hear my name :D

Ahhh, I feel better. I have dial up so it is usually faster to monkey away than try opening two windows at the same time, lol.

9:10 am

Many words fall into place when you add past tense and plurals

btw what is today's theme please?

9:10 am

al7 please?

9:10 am

Guy Fawlks nite, I believe

9:16 am

9:16 am

Think of the Jewish holy book minus the T

9:17 am

9:17 am

oooo ty ty ty!

9:17 am

9:19 am

Hey Scrabbler, bonkler, JeeWhiz

9:20 am

Put another consonant at the end JeeWhiz....

9:21 am

Jee, save it for the me words

9:21 am

ah...thanks....good clue from me and you

9:22 am

that dr6 is stooooopid

9:22 am

charm, do you want to tell me about it?

9:23 am

9:23 am

9:23 am

hi jacs! : )

9:32 am

Hi all, I'm back for a bit

9:32 am

spectacular icon, jac

Jac, you icon is nifty, didn't know we could use ones that moved.

9:32 am

Hi TO & everyone.

9:32 am

And with fireworks too Jac. The only place I will get to see them!

9:32 am

Dorens - Did you click on my icon?

9:32 am

Hi Jac, Hi again flosey

9:32 am

yes i did!

9:33 am

jac, all iget is a black square

9:33 am

COOL, Jacula!

9:33 am

Haven't really got fireworks - 43 still to find. LOL

*gazes at jac's icon* oooooh aaaaaaaaahhh

9:33 am

Dorens - what a beautiful child

Hey Jacula - I've had a look at your profile - I'm looking to get rid of a rather nice (though probably not extremely valuable) 1950s Mahogony dining table - would freecycle be the answer?

Cool icon by the way

9:33 am

Poor bonker! Not seeing st4/4s?

9:34 am

matty - It might well be.

9:34 am

perhaps if i ring my noggin off the corner of the desk...*?@*&*...aah, that's better

9:35 am

LOL, bonkler.

Matty, why not donate it? We have several places that give furniture to needy families here, especially after those hurricanes last year.

9:35 am

Now that is what I call tunnel vision Bonker!

lol bonk....did you get any inspiration for the ps words?

9:36 am

a clue please for the SECOND te4/4

btw is that why you are called "bonk"

Where a cows milk comes from, attatched to udder.

9:37 am

Don't have all the t's yet, Flask, but my 2nd te4/4 is what a cow has 4 of.

9:37 am

jac, legs don't start with te...ouch

9:38 am

ROFLMAO

9:38 am

lol

OK, maybe I'm just being stupid, but nu4/6?

9:38 am

Bonkler - lol.

9:39 am

matty - Nekkid!

naked

jacs: i already have a firewors icon but i daren't use it or you will say i am trying to top you again!!! LOL!

9:39 am

nu 4.6 - no clothing

9:39 am

Has anybody done the last two ur's?

9:39 am

thanx Jac....now pass the fish please!!!

9:39 am

matty when you take off all of your clothes and run into the yard you are nu**

9:39 am

TO - the more fireworks, the merrier!

Got that one - I should have specified - the other one.

9:39 am

<8(())><

(and I avoid being nu4/6 whenever possible.

9:40 am

ah replace d with double hump

ur 6/36 - ur + t 4/9

Never mind - got it.

9:40 am

thanks flosey (late. but just returned)

9:40 am

lol....thanks Douglas!

9:40 am

al5/10 please, i feel really stupid

If you put a K in front of it, it COULD mean (if you're Terry Pratchett) being very, very sober.

9:40 am

just returned myself dorens

al 5/10 - a + opp of early

9:41 am

TY!

9:41 am

Thanks bunny

9:41 am

Could that word be a synonym for "recently?"

Ya know, I just don't look at the def., my brain cannot handle that much knowledge.

*scratches head* i can't keep up with you lot this morning!

i have a ur 5 and its plural

9:43 am

My phantoms today: altruism, satyr, taxidermy, trumpets, exude.

TO, have you had you coffee yet?

9:43 am

Douglas, that word is related to having wings...

9:43 am

Heres a discussion point: when was the last time we saw the letter "b"? Everything else comes up regularly, even the Q and Z, but the b seems to be MIA. Has Doctor God perhaps lost that one down the back of the sofa?

9:43 am

Not very Christian to burn a Pilgrim at this time of the year Doug

hey dachef!

9:44 am

Dachef - ROFLOL.

9:44 am

al 5/16?

9:44 am

hi, all. i have 70 left and am not liking the grid much!

Gosh, there are some awful ads on Television at the moment.

9:44 am

i had the same thought dachef!

9:44 am

Hi emusing.

Dachef, you if is very pretty...uh hum, I mean handsome.

9:44 am

de 8/50 anyone? its been clued before as debris/rubbish but that didn't help - maybe its not a common word in Aust.

And I meant ICON!

9:45 am

or has DrG deliberately "lost" that one, cos so many "naughty" words begin with b that he didnt want to start another argument?

al 5/16 - al + dirt and water make this

9:45 am

I have noticed that too Dachef!

my phantoms: altruist, sultry, turtle

9:45 am

ty bunny

9:45 am

de + t word for common, banal minus the final letter + i live in the **A

9:48 am

YW

ty for the clue jacs

9:49 am

got the last clue BV now to look up the meaning

9:49 am

anyone have the se4,9?

Rhymes with te 4/9

9:50 am

rhymes with the te 4/9

9:50 am

se4/9 = prefix for 6 (se**on in the church)

9:50 am

gender + cross letter

9:50 am

se4/9 & pl. 5 rhyme with mobile phone message.

9:50 am

ah ty, thought i'd tried that

good morning everyone

9:51 am

Hi again, smooth

Morning Smooth

Dachef, where did you get you icon?

9:52 am

Smooth-just read about Madison-sounds like a place to visit

9:52 am

morning smooth....is that your selfportrait from yesterday?

HA! no, I did have that up, but I changed it in honor of guy fawkes day. I'll replace it with my picture when I get home from work

9:52 am

BV - I think i got it from a Fractal library, cant remember the address. I googled something like "fractal dragon". If I see some pic I like, I usually save it to use as an icon.

9:53 am

The es words aren't jumping out at me - any hints?

9:53 am

es5/14 = write a 500 word es*** on what you did last summer

cherry: what were you reading about Madison? It sure is a good place to visit. a great place to live, too

9:53 am

es6/24 = e + s**** a guitar

TY, I have stained glass all over my kitchen, I think a few colorful prints would look good to decorate the walls, your really stands out to me.

9:53 am

es6/21 = to be in heat (like an animal) - I think.

9:54 am

it is outstanding, dachef

Sorry about this - so soon on the heels of my last - se5/16 and se6/27?

Your too Doren, that is a great picture. My kids are always sticking fingers somewhere or making odd faces.

9:55 am

If I took credit for anything other than stumbling upon it by complete accident, it would be quite immoral.

9:55 am

se5/16 = a type of plant. se + ***bo the elephant. and pl.

se 5/16 - se + another word for ignorant, ***b, plural for 7

9:55 am

9:56 am

mu4=mu**cipal. and pl.

9:56 am

There are two ps 7/40's.

10:00 am

10:01 am

Dorens - it depends how cold & damp it is where you are now.

12:41 pm

Over the Miami Dolphins

12:42 pm

There is a Radio Shack commercial where a seated blindfolded man is identifying products as they bring them in his presence...

12:42 pm

it's a shame I suppose, that I hate the colors of the Dolphins so much that I can never bring myself to root for them...

12:42 pm

Could I have a clue for that in9, please?

12:42 pm

except when they play against the Raiders. I am for any team that plays the Raiders.

12:43 pm

They just showed a picture of that giant metal bean thingy in Chicago...

12:43 pm

It's not industry, Biltong

12:43 pm

the in 9 is plural the in 8 which looks like "obstinate" to me, but can't access the dictionary...

12:44 pm

That doesn't help, does it?

12:44 pm

no Douglas :(

12:45 pm

the dictionary I finally got says "v.t. -- 1. to make hard, harden.... 3. obdurate"

12:45 pm

in + the war in iraq is of indefinate ****tion and people are getting quite **sty about it

12:46 pm

it sort of curves around the 6 pt letter without using it...

12:46 pm

*crossing fingers for Biltong to get it*

12:46 pm

Start the in with ... SOmething that lasts is said to en****. Change the en to in and then add on anagram of eat

12:47 pm

12:47 pm

I hope it makes sense

12:50 pm

hi jean

12:50 pm

Now I feel just as sure as I'm sure that my name Isn't Willow, titwillow, titwillow That 'twas blighted affection that made him exclaim "Oh, willow, titwillow, titwillow" And if you remain callous and obdurate, I Shall perish as he did, and you will know why Though I probably shall not exclaim as I die "Oh, willow, titwillow, titwillow"

Is anyone writing as part of National Novel Writing Month?

12:52 pm

not I, I'd rather be beaten severely than write

12:52 pm

bye stidmama

12:53 pm

There seems to be this underlying thread connecting writing and beating...

12:53 pm

for good reason

12:53 pm

it's torture

12:53 pm

seems to be quite overt

12:53 pm

Dolphins make Bears pay, touchdown pass, Dolphins up 7-3

12:53 pm

for me at least

12:54 pm

I can "rewrite" or "dress up" most anything... but to have to be the first to plop words on paper or screen... please, NO

12:55 pm

I am writing about writers who write about the writers that participate in National Novel Writing Month, without being beaten.

12:57 pm

hi lib!

7:52 pm

It has been the general consensus today that dr6 is a stupidhead word

7:52 pm

I dressed my icon for tomorrow's theme, simply because my current one is totally outdated

7:52 pm

Hey Douglas!

7:52 pm

oh, I don't have dr6

7:52 pm

Changing my theme involves more energy than I currently possess.

7:53 pm

the new one wont show up, maybe tomorrow. Gute Nacht everyone

7:53 pm

Which is funny in and of itself, as stupidhead probably isn't a word, but should be...

7:53 pm

Like Tony Blur is President of the UK -- LOL!

8:54 pm

smooth...you and kristin aren't the youngest here anymore.

8:54 pm

jilli - Don't mention that man to me!

wha??? who is? lol

8:55 pm

Reese's profile says 12.

8:55 pm

8:55 pm

I hear he's in big trouble right now, jac

8:55 pm

Stop laughing, you lot!

8:55 pm

smith...watch it! (calling me out as the youngest!)

wel, I think it's you and me kristen. lol

8:56 pm

smith and kristin are twins?

8:56 pm

I'm just jealous, kristin. Bumping 39 in another month. Got the wrinkles to prove it too.

8:56 pm

well thats true i really am 12. My friend at school told me about this site last year.

8:56 pm

Nope, jilli. We aren't related.

8:56 pm

darn tootin' smith!

8:56 pm

Wrinkles at 39, smithchick? I've got 10 years' on you & I have none... yet... amazingly.

8:57 pm

can I get a clue for the second tu?

um another word for poop

8:57 pm

Well thanks a lot Jacula...Now I'm even more depressed about my wrinkles! Squint lines, that's what they are. Please tell me that you have grey hair!

8:58 pm

LOL, smooth

8:58 pm

jilli - I make it a rule never to discuss politics or religion with friends. Family is another matter... what with 2 students of politics & history in the house.

8:58 pm

stools maybe smooth.lol

8:58 pm

smithchick - grey hair? Dunno, my hairdresser never lets me find out!;)

8:58 pm

my boys use that word alot lately...can't believe I missed that one

8:58 pm

imaginary twins, I mean, like rennie and nut are sisters (or haven't you met them?)

8:59 pm

LOL, Jacula...mine tries to keep up with mine.

9:00 pm

Yes, I've met them...They are hilarious. Along with smaller. We could be twins, but only if kristin is gorgeous with no wrinkles, grey hair and is tiny:)

9:00 pm

good idea, jac!

YAY greeny!

Hi stid. I have a dental appointment later today, too.

9:26 pm

good night pam, take care!

9:26 pm

So does my son.

9:27 pm

Goodnight, Pam. Have a Babble-free sleep!

9:27 pm

9:27 pm

Did I miss anything while I was briefly away? LOL

9:28 pm

es 5/14?

9:28 pm

go go power rangers!

9:28 pm

kristinc - I dread the bills. But not as bad as yours over there in USA.

9:28 pm

Kate - you might write an es5/14 for your English teacher.

9:29 pm

no kidding jac! so bad now that my denist makes you pay the whole thing up front whether you have insurance or not

9:29 pm

wow, thanks, i should've got that

9:29 pm

ok then monkey

9:29 pm

kristinc - Oh dear! That's awful.

9:29 pm

y/w, Kate.

9:30 pm

yep, we're talking about getting a different dentist, at least one that takes insurance (not that that will make me want to go any more)

9:31 pm

What time is it in USA now? *Prepares self for several different answers.* Is it still November 5th there?

tr 7 pls?

7:30 PM in California

9:31 pm

yes...only 7:30 PM on the West Coast

9:32 pm

still nov 5th, 9:30 here

9:32 pm

yes its still the 5th and its seven thirty on the westcoast

9:32 pm

daisy - tr7 & plural 8 - think of 15th president of Canada (68 - 84), French name. Change middle letter.

9:32 pm

9:30PM

9:32 pm

sorry, had to run intereference here... the Frye museum is up close to St. James Cathedral. Admission is freeeeee.... fryemuseum.org

9:33 pm

It's 3:31am on Nov. 6th here in UK.

9:33 pm

hi daisy.

a lot of people on the west coast...

hi Stid :)

ty Jac :)

9:33 pm

y/w daisy. Hope the clue worked.

9:33 pm

gotcha...not far at all from me St. James is always a stop when we are giving tours to visitors since it is so pretty and has a great view of downtown!

9:34 pm

hello zeekers, new face

9:34 pm

I cancelled my last dentist appt because my dentist is dying and I don't transition well -- though I know he chose his replacement carefully and I have heard good things about him. *sigh* I dislike losing good friends to cancer...

9:35 pm

hello zeekers!

hi. i play on and off. usually leave the talking to you guys though.

oh Stid, I'm sorry :(

9:35 pm

how sad stid!

Jac, I found your Pres. clue:)

9:35 pm

it happens. I need to learn to go with the flow better, but this feels really raw. My teeth can wait a few extra months!

9:36 pm

stid - my dentist retired early and there's now 'a new broom' sweeping through his surgery. This new guy doesn't seem to believe in giving much in the way of treatment to his nhs patients.:(

Stid, he's playing at his desk if you want to call.

9:36 pm

okay, I have 56 words left to find. Need to buckle down or I won't finish (and I really want to finish today). Back as soon as I have a list...

9:37 pm

57 here!

9:37 pm

Stid - same thing has happened at my doctor's! My old GP retired because he couldn't cope with the computers and not being able to chat with or visit patients (and he is only 55). His partner (2 yrs' older than me) is still there, but he seems to be letting himself get swept along by the new brooms in there.

9:37 pm

nonono daisy! the last thing I will do when I am stressed is make phone calls. *wry grin*

9:38 pm

so sorry about that Jacula. Wish people were more aware how change affects others.

9:38 pm

Me too, Stid, on both counts.

ok :)

9:39 pm

Can I help you with your missing words, stid?

9:39 pm

how sad to loose such a caring physician jac!

9:39 pm

I will let you know Jacula -- probably though! :-)

done! and I can clue too, til he decides he's hungry

9:41 pm

YAY daisy!

9:41 pm

good bye everyone, time for some shut eye, going in early.

was beginning to wonder if I'd finish, since he's not felt good and been on the couch for a big part of the day.

9:41 pm

kristinc - Yes, I am sad to lose him. I didn't visit often but he was a friend as well as a GP do me. Years ago, he kept nagging me to have a tetanus booster because he knows I'm a gardener. I hate needles and he knew it! He turned up in my front garden one day, and I was out there gardening, and stabbed me with the booster! These days, he'd no doubt be struck off for assault or something. Back then, I thought it was a very ingenious (though sneaky) way of giving me what I needed.

9:42 pm

bye reeces...have a great day tomorrow!

9:42 pm

Well done, Daisy!

9:42 pm

'Bye Reese's.

9:42 pm

sweet dreams, Reese's!

*bows* glad to be done with it in case I hvve to be busy elsewhere

9:43 pm

Truly a good man then jac, though I'm sure it didn't seem like it at the time. Hopefully you'll still see him in other capacities.

9:44 pm

ah! a word I loathe is in here...the ps4/5! The only word I loathe more is pfft!

9:44 pm

congrats to finishers, had to answer an email. dentists...i love mine, she's great, doctors...don't have one, have a pa who is also great.

9:46 pm

kristinc - I muttered about him a bit when he 'blackmailed' me when my next tetanus booster was due.. I'd taken my (then) young son and baby daughter in for their injections and he told them, 'Mummy needs an injection first and so she's going to have hers first to show you both it doesn't hurt.' And then looked at me and said, Aren't you, Mummy?' grrr, mutter, mutter, you son of an unmarried mothers etc.

9:46 pm

stupid-dumb french plural water word...

9:47 pm

gidday folks

hi stid! how are ya?

9:47 pm

either of the ES 6 would be appreciated at this point...

9:47 pm

ps4/5 - beloved word of pantomimes and bad horror movies. 'He/It's BEHIND you!'

9:47 pm

hi pappa! I am tired but well. You?

e+ what you do to a guitar

so so tonight

9:48 pm

g'day, Colhad.

9:48 pm

hi colhad!

and the other 6, change the last letter

9:48 pm

hey there colhad! I've missed seeing you lately. Hope you're well.

9:48 pm

thanks daisy, got that one... *looking for the other*

9:48 pm

thanks for the es6's daisy!

9:48 pm

hows it goin Kristin, and jacula

9:48 pm

done with everything through the E words. *sigh of relief*

9:49 pm

going good...sitting in front of a nice fire, thanks!

9:49 pm

I'm sitting in front of a fan :)

9:50 pm

No need to rub it in, Colhad. LOL. It's cold in UK and USA now.

9:50 pm

go figure colhad! quite the weather varieties in Babble I suppose.

9:51 pm

Is are conquered, moving on the to the L words.

9:51 pm

Had a nice, relaxed Sunday with a roast beef dinner and caught up on some TV, Colhad. Did have to do a few chores, including ironing, but, all in all, not a bad day.

I's shouldn't be too evil I don't think

9:52 pm

I still don't get the whole clue thing with the letters and numbers

L's that is

9:52 pm

ahh, so plenty to keep you busy then Jac :)

9:53 pm

Stid - the only L word you've really got to watch out for is the stupidhead plural of la6/18 (la7/28).

9:53 pm

Reese's ... you were going to go to sleep early, remember? LOL

9:53 pm

Ls are gone

9:53 pm

yeah well I was on a roll! lol

9:54 pm

okay, Reeses (although I'm contributing to the delinquency of a minor)...

9:55 pm

when I was complaining about the ps4/5, that meant the word had 4 letters and was worth 5 points total

9:55 pm

thanks Jacula, that "almost" caught me up, then I remembered the babbler's maxim: plural everything, then again in Latin!

9:55 pm

I stumbled across a site called Tams11, lots of online games, few word games, MumboJumbo is my favourite, but I think you get a 30 day free trial, but I think it'll be worth paying for a membership http://www.tams11.com/

9:55 pm

Reese's - If the word to be clued was 'queen', it would be qu5/16. qu because it begins with 'qu'. 5 because it has 5 letters. 16 because it adds up to 8 and 5-letter words are worth double the points.

9:55 pm

do you know where to get the list of the first two letters of words and their point values?

9:56 pm

ME 5/14 is too hard for me today. Help please?

the word for middle, with dbl vowel

9:56 pm

ty all but no i don't kristin

9:56 pm

sounds like a good site, Colhad -- too bad I can't afford to keep up with my regular games! :-)

9:56 pm

me5/14=I was going to major in pre-me*+double vowel

9:57 pm

thanks, got that one... and the 6 after? (since it's not plural

9:57 pm

Colhad - I've bookmarked the site to look at later. Thank you.

9:58 pm

nvm monkey got it

9:58 pm

okay, you can get the list in a few places... the links are at the bottom of the page: Babbler's Annoymous, click on general and then stats or Lickety's Babble clues. Look at them both as they offer different options. Hollar if you ever need more help.

9:58 pm

Good monkey!

9:58 pm

on to the N words!

9:58 pm

not a night for me to chat, so going to log off. hope to see you all on the morrow. Nighters and good luck

9:58 pm

that's ok, I can't believe the amount of word games there are on the net

9:59 pm

ok ty kristen i'll go now be back in a bit

9:59 pm

goodnight lbd!

9:59 pm

sounds good reeses

lol I'll go buy that monkey some nanners...49¢ lb down at the store

10:00 pm

Stid - you'll find a divorce decree, naked people, a geek and some ridges in there, plus about 3 other things.

10:00 pm

Night, lbd.

10:00 pm

fireworks

10:00 pm

Well done, Nat!

10:01 pm

yay Nat!

good job nat!

10:01 pm

hooray natasha!

10:01 pm

two sets of fireworks in one day, thanks to jac

10:01 pm

stid - the other things are nests, i.e spider broods etc.

10:02 pm

Really, Nat? Double well done then!!

10:02 pm

ok, I've got it down. I think

10:03 pm

homework. brb

10:03 pm

whats brb

10:04 pm

So you see the list of possible words then reeses? You can either copy the list into notepad or word or you can open 2 windows at the same time.

10:04 pm

be right back

10:04 pm

Oh, just realised you probably meant my icon as well as your fireworks, Nat. Was just wondering how long you'd been up and playing. LOL.

10:04 pm

Reese's - brb means 'Be Right Back'.

10:04 pm

ty kristin and jacula

10:08 pm

Incidentally, we've weighed 'Hunting Cat' and have decided to give him half as much again with each meal. It's stopped him pinching 'Homely Cat's' grub but it hasn't stopped him hunting. However, he only ate the head off the mouse he caught earlier, rather than everything bar the gall bladder and the tail and feet.

10:08 pm

:((

10:09 pm

Oh, and he didn't bring a bird home either (feathered variety).

10:10 pm

clues for al,5-10 plz

10:10 pm

Although ours is not a hunter jac, I do have one that is pushing 20 lbs I'm sure but he's also just huge to begin with...he was nearly twice the size of his sister by 4 weeks. So it is hard for me to know if he's really overweight or not.

10:10 pm

Reese's - a + not early.

10:11 pm

ty Jacula

10:12 pm

ok now I'm actually leaving for bed. goodbye

10:13 pm

goodnight reeses...well done figuring out all the lists!

10:13 pm

nite Reese's

10:14 pm

kristinc - male cats are generally larger than females but, in the case of our two, an extremely short-legged fluffy, part-Persian female and a big, rangey, long-legged Short haired, part Siamese mog, the difference is palpable. Kira (Homely Cat) is so short-legged she looks like a panicky climber about to top Everest as she occasionally decides to look for me upstairs... I half expect her to demand oxygen, ropes and extra crampons to supplement her outstretched claws. She has ru4/5ed my stair carpet!

10:15 pm

One day, I must video her climbing the stairs.

10:16 pm

*sigh* I suppose I should go fix His Lordship some dinner, even though he hasn't asked for it. might bbl, depends on what he's doing.

10:16 pm

yes, I think ours is borderline at this point because he is just naturally a big guy...my parents have a "homely cat" twin to yours then because it is quite the affair to see her get up the stairs. She is 14 though.

10:16 pm

Okay, daisy.xxx

10:16 pm

okay daisy...sigh...fix something good :)

10:17 pm

kristinc - Kira is somewhere between 8 & 10.

10:17 pm

Both my cats adopted me as strays, so I can't be exactly certain of their ages. Hunter cat is now 4/6, I guess.

10:18 pm

daisy - do a quick pasta meal or microwave something for him.

10:18 pm

ours are extemely spoiled 2 year old siblings and they don't look or act at all related

10:19 pm

Just going to dress my icon and profile ready for Lalique.

10:20 pm

enjoy jac :)

10:23 pm

tu 4/6 please?

10:24 pm

tu4/6-another word for poop

10:24 pm

Lalique is done!

10:24 pm

tu4/6 - lump of pooh.

10:24 pm

thanks kristin

10:26 pm

okay, I hate to admit it but the de8 garbage clue is lost on me

10:26 pm

yw kate

es 6/24 and es 6/21..pls

dets

sorry

10:28 pm

Kate - de** - owing the bank but take out the 'b' + pagan ri** (but knock off the last letter) + not me, you or them, but ** together!

10:29 pm

e + st5/14 + past tense

10:29 pm

rockimggramma - it's okay.

10:29 pm

Hello again everyone

10:34 pm

I e-mailed Ata my mob. no before I was about due to be in her neighbourhood. Haven't heard or seen a thing from her since.:(((

10:34 pm

ra 5/22 rhymes with ta5/22

10:35 pm

for the ta 5/22 think of income ta*** and just change the ta to ra

10:36 pm

and you will also get the 5/20 from that except that its plural

10:36 pm

hello faeriekae -- hi again all. So, when you ask a child Friday afternoon on the way home from school, that evening, Saturday evening, Sunday morning and afternoon... how does he manage to "forget" homework due the next day until bedtime?

10:36 pm

Wow Jac wonder what's up?

10:36 pm

stid - I think it's a kid thing.

10:37 pm

10:37 pm

faerie - dunno!

10:37 pm

that's how it works stid!

in 5/12 and in 6/21..pls

10:38 pm

stid - surveys of variously aged brains have shown that priorities differ... go figure, as you Americans say.

10:38 pm

LOL -- true enough Jac et al!

10:38 pm

ok so what about MovieMan heard anything from him lately????

10:39 pm

In - because of lack of rain, this summer was the ***est in 10 years

10:39 pm

10:42 pm

10:42 pm

10:48 pm

Hi ,Hell!

10:49 pm

10:49 pm

hey all, hey jacula - i was looking for you to give us the definite opinion on guy fawkes - good guy or bad guy?

10:49 pm

10:49 pm

thanks. I will look for you!

10:49 pm

a slow-witted person is sometimes called a ***my

10:49 pm

faerie - I need no clues, was done hours ago.

10:50 pm

I put you on my friends list so I can check the icon even if you are not here when I am! :-)

10:50 pm

no Jac would you care to clue the se 5/16 please?

10:51 pm

took me a while, but I got those SI words! 17 to go.

10:51 pm

I'm also finished but not sure how to clue it

10:51 pm

Stid - have you ever heard of the old Welsh 'transgression' (si*) eaters who ate food off the body of the deceased at funerals in order to absorb all the sins of the dead one?

10:52 pm

Ss are DONE!

10:52 pm

No matter, stid, you got the words.

10:52 pm

I have actually heard of them, Jacula -- curious custom...

10:52 pm

Those sin eaters had to live outside of the community because they were 'damned'.

10:52 pm

se + gravel is hauled in a ***ptruck

thnx..got them!

10:54 pm

thanks Egg I was lost on how to clue that word

10:54 pm

It was the only food they got, stid, except what they could pick and catch for themselves. However, the death rate was high then so, I guess, they wer akin to the ta* collectors of modern day.

10:54 pm

plus I really suck at giving clues LOL

10:54 pm

Embryonic ta* collectors! LOL.

10:55 pm

yuck. TR 7/40 please?

10:55 pm

Jacs Why on earth are you not in bed?

10:55 pm

because I'm not tired, Faerie.

10:55 pm

harry s ****man + french for water

10:56 pm

or Black B***ty

10:56 pm

the 8 adds a consonant

10:57 pm

got it Eggcorn! thanks!

10:57 pm

stid - tr7/40 & plural 8/80. Think, for 7, of the 15th PM of Canada (68-84)..

10:57 pm

Oh, never mind, stid. You got it.

10:58 pm

LOL Jac that's a very good answer

10:58 pm

FIVE left...

10:58 pm

es 6/21?

10:59 pm

LOL, faerie. You know the bed nannies are one of my pet hates on here, or any internet site.

10:59 pm

AL 5/16?

10:59 pm

ES 6/21 is latin word for the process a woman goes through monthly...

11:00 pm

es + to rely on someone is to ****t them

11:00 pm

Helen - es6 = e + s**** guitar strings.

11:00 pm

tx!

11:00 pm

al + wet dirt

11:00 pm

stid - al5/16 = al + wet dirt.

11:00 pm

thanks again Eggcorn!

11:01 pm

then add a vowel and finally plural it

11:01 pm

Snap, Egg! Oe 'jinx', as I vbelieve you say in UA.

11:01 pm

11:01 pm

11:02 pm

stid, my last 2 words were the in words.... what are yours?

11:03 pm

Well done, Stid!

11:06 pm

*very tired smile* thanks all! I can probably hang out another ten minutes or so to clue... then I am heading into the other room to spend time with Tom.

11:06 pm

I only hear part of it, but I guess there was a power surge in Germany that ultimately knocked out power to some 30 million people on the continent. Jac, were you affected?

11:07 pm

wtg stid !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11:07 pm

Hi Harp

11:08 pm

11:09 pm

wow I will have to see if my family in Germany were okay. My great-aunt is very elderly and ill...

11:10 pm

good luck to those who are still working the grid

11:10 pm

hope I'm not making it overly dramatic, or exaggerating, I think what I reported is accurate.

11:12 pm

tx faeri !

11:15 pm

wow. sounds like it started in France and got to Germany and Spain and a lot of the smaller nations. One report said 10 million were without power, but the worst lasted only about 2 hours. Switzerland was okay though...

11:15 pm

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?

11:15 pm

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!

11:15 pm

hiya minver

11:16 pm

I just saw you finish stidmama! Way to go stidmama!

11:16 pm

Harp- no probs here, which is unusual, because this village normally has an unstable electricity supply.

11:16 pm

that's cause there's a nuclear reactor in switzerland on every other block

11:18 pm

thanks Min! welcome to the grid! how are you today?

11:19 pm

11:19 pm

11:21 pm

Congratulations, harpjane

11:21 pm

Guy Fawkes was a victim, Hell, if that was what you were asking.

11:22 pm

YAY harpjane!!!

11:22 pm

a dude that tried to blow up the parliament was a victim?

11:22 pm

i suppose that's what i meant, cause it doesn't make sense to me to have a holiday for a traitor - it's not like we have benedict arnold day here, lol

11:22 pm

Weak chap, who wanted to be popular, not that he didn't know where his loyalties lay, but...

11:23 pm

new picture!!

11:23 pm

11:27 pm

hey gang

11:27 pm

We saw several houses we really liked a lot. We're at a disadvantage now that it gets dark much earlier.

11:27 pm

hey chj -- never heard how the opera went the other day -- or was it a "show?"

11:27 pm

Hello chj! How are you doing? Did you finish the grid?

11:27 pm

hiya chj

11:27 pm

are we all choosing places we want to live or something? Nobody is in the right place all of a sudden!

11:27 pm

I actually don't waer much red, but I do like it, she was great, she let us pick our own dresses and just had us all be in the same color

11:28 pm

yes, the short days make it more difficult to see how it sits on the ground and how it relates to other buildings and the plants (for me that would be important)

11:28 pm

Very smart on her part -- you stay friends, and the dresses are something you can wear again.

11:29 pm

and I am getting really really tired. Not going to make it to flip, I am afraid. See you-all tomorrow, I think.

11:29 pm

hey hey hey!

11:30 pm

night stid!

11:30 pm

We did look at a few houses in the dark, but we liked the inside so much that I am sure the outside wasn't that bad either.We can always go back in the day to look at the outside.We still have many more houeses to look at also. Even though I really liked house that we saw today and would like to buy it, but too soon.

11:30 pm

I am off too, nighty night all
