sorry if I've missed saying hi -- still watching ER
Just changed my icon hi to anyone I missed before just started
how was everyone's day?
great saphyre. homemade pie was a smash, good family time. how was yours?
it consisted mostly of sleeping and eating, quite enjoyable.
thanks, tiny - I just changed mine, too
Uh...thankful? :)
it was great but I'm exhausted and now at work
I had a nice time, but I had to rush home to work. Which is what I'm supposed to be doing now. Blech.
stuck -- can't find the en 7 -- think I'll find an icon...
work = bad
Work is a four-letter word, dontcha know.
Hopefulle Eric will finish cleaning the kitchen by the time I get back home in the morning :)
*y
Clues are up - for this small one. Gotta run!
Thanks Lickety!
Apparently, yifs isn't a word. :( I guess they didn't see ER that one time.
Thanks, lickety!
Thank You Lickety as always so good to us
lickety..there is a word that is accepted by the list but not by the grid
merci mille fois, Lickety!
jilli, I like the animation in your icon.
which one chj
fine
me4/6 before an office missive
oh ok thanks
The grid accepted it for me.
goodnight to all
Oops, misunderstood.
the grid wont take it from me
ive tried 10 times
ok -- clue icon is loaded
updating icon brb
ok back
chj did you refresh or go out an d comeback?
chj, I have that happen every once in awhile, either the grid accepts it but it isn't in the word list, or vice versa.

thaks, saph

congrats ruthy
wtg ruthy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YAY ruthy!!!
here's my icon word clue....
ooh got 2 out of that one Chic
can't figure it out -- looks like a dog dressed up in a clown outfit!
well done ruthy
it's a weasel!
oh well, have the two weaselly ones
althothe grid wont accept one of my words
that's one weird looking dog nan!! what breed did you figure it to be?
it appears to have subtracted it from the words i have left
chj has displeased the babble gods in some way & is being punished
so you didn't get fireworks then, chj?
i still have 2 left
subtracting words is very bad, hard enough to get them to add up in the first place, lol
but the me4 isnt one of them
the photos are so small sometimes it's hard to tell what they are, helen -- not really a dog person -- like cats a lot better!
nan - well that explains that, lol
i got fireworks
wtg chj !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
despite the me4/6 not appearing on my list
congrats chj
and when i enter it it says its not in the dictionary
weird
did you have funny mushrooms for dinner?
congrats chj!! morning all
maybe the turkey gods are angry
could someone nudge me towards the en6?
im gonna log off and back on and see if it appears in my list
hi MVA

ok... I've gotta be totally overlooking this, but can I get any clue on the very first word in the puzzle? em 4/8?
got my icon
ty jillibus, beautiful dog
smooth -- it's a babblet -- em + For Sure
MVA -- to a Dane breeder that is not a beautiful colour!
wow! never seen that before... thanks jill
ty again jillibus, but i think it is lovely!
It's a goo thing some like that colour or harlequin breeders wmight have a hard time placing those pups in good homes. German breeders used to put them down at birth
*good
how awful!
They had very strict rules in Germany
on that sad note, i'm off to get ready for work, practising for Christmas concert!
bye MVA have a good day:)
heya!
hey Jilli!
hi celeste!
maybe cybernan found this grid too easy but I'm finding it very hard!
hi all :) emceleste - is that your cat?
hello atalante:)
hi ata, jean and all
hello jillibus:)
yup
andshe jsut fell of the desk... lol... poor baby
awwww! she's gorgeous :)
she looks to sweet, celeste!
what's her name??
good morning all and you jean
nunchucks :o)
love of my life...
brb
good morning Iain, how are you today?
Not too bad , Got the joys of a funeral later in the day
hello iain
well, I'm up through the H words, but I gotta sleep now. later!
Good morning jillibus
me too smooth
oh not good Iain, especially if its like here and raining and the forecast is for gales
good nite everyone :)
good night helen sleep well:)
It looks wey outside but then it always rains here. How is Michelle have not seen her playing for a while
Good morning all....any clues for en7, fe7 or re7?
morning kkiln:)
I havent caught up with either Iain, I spoke to Sophie on msn the other day apart from that nothing, will try and ring her at the weekend
You leaving, helen?
kkiln - hi -- I just got the fe7 -- add the sometime vowel to fe6/27
but en7 has me buffaloed
re7 - white sugar is often this - or perhaps an upperclass lady
right have to go busy day, happy babbling everyone:)bye Iainx
en7 - en***** in a ledger (if you are an accountant type) or perhaps the number of en***** in a competition
thanks lynxxx...
Hi Sunny
has anyone been watching the cricket.... or am I the only one??
thanks, lynxxx!
I don't even know who is playing who - but it is in Qld isn't it?
I've been crying about it ... though its just too funny really
LOL!! the Ashes test between England and Aust.
What IS the "sometime "vowel ? I've been trying to work that out for a while.
bye jean
what happened?
Lizmac - Y
AAAAAH, light dawns! Thank you, I get it now!
ponting got 196 runs
Aust put in a fair effort for the 1st innings
so - first innings total is over 600 runs
Thats a lot isn't it - which side is he on?
he is on aystralias side and that is HUGE
I really don't know why England bothered to turn up
most batsmen that i know retire if they reach 1000 runs
it's all kinds of awesome - especially after all the trash talking
australia Lynxxx.. the english may cop a beating for the 1st match!!
gawd that was sposed to be 100 runs - it's very hard work beyond that
1000 in a first innings would be a stretch...lol
Hooray for us then! I won't ask any more questions as I am just showing my utter ingorance about the game.
i gotta run myself - good luck guys
just be smug, lynx :)
Bundy - with a name like that you are from Qld - or just like the rum?
goodnight everyone.. family wants to eat :)
bye sunny
night sunny
in8.55 a sneaky hinter
hello unc iain
oh and all babblers
thanks again lynxxx
hello lazaro
come on unc, get the toast out of you teeth!
hello jillibus
hows things in canada jillibus?
getting a bit wintry, lazaro -- in this part we've had a lot of rain but tomorrow they talk about frost
oh, very windy here. and rain!
and how's NZ these days? Several people from here love to visit there.
are you on the north island or south?
are the 2 Ls obvious? am I being really silly?
haven't got to the L words yet, ata
north island.suffering equinox at mo.very changable.emigrated from uk 8 weeks ago
not acclimatised yet, then?
Evening all - the beginning of the weekend Yippee!!!
is this a tough grid tonite babblers?
hi angb!
I'm speedbabbling today, got to go to work in an hour ...
I think so but others have breezed through and cybernan complained that it was too easy!
oh, tough for me!
I chat too much :(
cool!
le4.5 a bablette
duh, yes of course. ty lynx!
merci encore, lynxxx!
uncle iain, where are you?
morning all
Hi sprite. How are ya?
morning! *hugs*
hello Sprite!
Son is ill, but otherwise ok. Some kind of strange flue, with aching legs and arms... why can't they cough and sneeze like the rest of the world!
Male, sprite
{{{{sprite!}}}}
LOL Angb - that says it all. *hugs* right back for Ata and Jilli :)
men are always awkward!
I am never quick with visiting a doctor, but I wasn't sure about this one. So we checked, and doc confirmed: a virus infection, has to be cured with rest, drinks and lots of TLC.
What more can anyone ask for sprite.
morning all!
yeah, good news, I can stop worrying and start adapting the day to a sick boy :)
hi Flask!
Hiya Flask
maybe he can come and help his mum with babble when he's feeling a bit better after TLC and hot chocolate!
Am sure you all agree, we can never get too much TLC!
he always wants too! Even finds some valid words every now and then, though he only started learning english about a year ago now.
frey
true Flask :)
Could do with some myself - wouldn't it be luvverly - without the virus though
How old is he sprite?
too right Angb....;)
He is 10
come over here and I will pamper you, Angb :)
leave him a few easy words to find :)
Aaah a little young to be under the weather with one of those nasties.
Ta sprite {{{}}}
Might take you up on that one day - but I've told my 2 boys we're not taking them anywhere until they are less fussy with food.
He's still at that age where you want to take the virus from him and suffer for him
and he is so brave! He had a test at school today he prepared very well for, and he wanted to go anyway, to do the test. But when I saw he really was in pain, I said no way. Health is more important than tests, any day.
true Flask! Stupid world, where mums can't do that for their kids.
You just bring them, Angb. My kids never fuss over food, they will set the example ;)
Yes ... I have a 6 year old - who get's a sore neck ???? Then you realise he meant his throat. They just don't understand what's going on, and that it will end.
is mums right? I guess it should have read moms? Darn, all mixed up, lol.
lol.....mine is 27, still at home, and I still feel the same with him
Sprite said a word
Argh - soooo sorry. Even had it. Should have known better.
They should let german words into enable
we had anlage and anlagen the other day. That's german.
mums = english, m*ms = american :)
I wondered where those had come from.
the word singe was clued to me yesterday as a backwards german babbler........so funny!
Scottish/Irish = Mams
ah great! Well, that's one thing: they taught me british english at school, and most of the english I come across is american - I will NEVER get those straightened out anymore.
inter
sorry!
Last word added: "inter" at 2.59 am
lol
can't you enter a word I haven't got, please!
Canadian English is a mixture and anything goes -- we have mums and m*ms, colours and colors, cosy and cozy, etc etc
Oh Atal....I keep trying......one of these days!!
so... what's this Greenland thing, Ata? You on holidays, traveling, or just making believe?
Good morning all.
Good morning Haz!
I think I'll quit now and leave 25 for the morrow
its wishful thinking :)
morning Haz!
Microsoft Word has created a generation of American spellers in NZ. We use English spelling normally
See you jilli
My email client gives a choice of UK English and USA
Morning all Changed my icon ready for the day.
why would Word do that? It has UK and US English dictionaries ...
That's unusual - which is it? jilli
hello FMitch
there was this joke I came across some time ago. About the British going to rule the world. Somewhere in it was the notion: "There doesn't exist a thing like american english. We will let Microsoft know on your behalf" :)
Comes US as default - and it seems the kids know no difference, or haven't figured out how to change it!
Hi jilli are you up late or early?
Netscape 7.2 -- no longer available but apparently Thunderbird is its successor
Hello Flask, Atalante, FMitch. This grid looks like there's letter rationing going on.
phantom: moment.
Morning all, just got 15 mins respite so I thought I would drop in. How is everyone?
I'm up late, FMitch -- It's 1:02 am here
Haven';t used Netscape for ages - I miss it.
Hi spanner
Hi haz
Good morning Spanner - just getting started.
phantom: tenerife
hi spanner :)
Hi Haz, it's a grid of 2 halfs
Hows things sprite? Good I hope...
Son with flue, otherwise ok. How's life on your side? Any rest from the pita yet?
Shortage of vowels -- only e,i and o (Old Macdonald had a farm...e i e i o)
and at that farm he had a er.... er...
No, none at all. My days respite last week fell through...Ive just got her off to sleep.... Sorry to hear about your son, it can be real nasty...
Heres to a rapid recovery
3Ms, 4Rs, 1S....
He'll be fine. I am sorry for your situation, it is really taking something out of you, isn't it.
and on the farm he had a f6/27
ooohhh jilli, you count so well!
Hell, gotta go . B bak later XXX
a fe7/48 fe6/27
I must go to bed -- good night all!
hang in there, spanner. See you later.
Night jilli
And on that farm he had a te 4/4 (well the farm was near the sea)
and an er4/4
So why won't my fe6 become a 7?
because you haven't added the right letter, obviously!!
because the 7 is not the plural, of course.
and there was probably some me6.21 flying around too
:)
grin! So what about the Greenland, Ata?
There are lots of little birds
its just wishful thinking about places I'd like to go on holiday ...
I found the 8 :)
c'mon people stop teasing - give with the fe6/27
I thought it might be that :)
Crone - look at my icon
weasel
It is a bit weasel like, Crone :)
fe6.27 are good to go rabbiting with
A best here - kill our birds - kiwis and the like
ty
*pest
I hate to see a good Q go wasted. But it is really no use today.
But it stands out so much - hard to ignore as well
now how about the other fe6/27 & fe7/48 - not that i'm not grateful but ...
Dutch word for chorus of a song = refrein. And it is in here. And it is not valid. Drives me bananas.
It's that ei combo isn't it sprite
yes! :)
crone - the other fe 6 sounds likes its wild - spelt different but very like the weasel
fe 7/48 add sometime vowel to fe 6/27 weasel
got it already ty book
ang - could you clue again?
Good very early morning everyone
hi Eva
Eva! Very very early morning!
Good morning Eva.
Hello Eva
can someone tell me what the 8 begins with?
i, Eva.
in
how's Merp?
thanks
got it
Merp
Merp
Merp's fine, thanks. Still asleep. Had some turkey yesterday for Thanksgiving. Then whinged (from yesterday's grid), all evening for more
How's everyone by you Ata?
I bet! lol. cats must love Thanksgiving
thresh
drat!
oh fine thank you :) dog is still sulking from her recent haircut though LOL and I've got to go up to London in a few minutes *shudders* big busy city ...
you need two H's for that, Eva. You can do better :)
you never know what might drop from the babble sky sprite
true :)
any help with re7/28 please?
He who makes things better?
to bury again
ty - so b****y obvious isn't it
oh no, that was the 7/40, sorry.
well they are once you see them. Until then they're invisible. Like those 2 l's for instance. Totally invisible to me!
re7/40 - the headmistress of a finishing school
so about those l's.......
this grid is killing me!
Eva - the Ls are a babblette
there are 2 me4's that i cannot work out - one is in the dictionary but it won't let me enter it
lesne
Enable doesn't always accept what other dictionaries do. It's very frustrating!
I really should go back to sleep until my brain and hands are linked
Eva - le4.5 & plural
a little help with the first me4/6 and the 4/5 pleeease
thanks lynxx. That did it
is this qu totally useless in this grid?
yep
there's the me4/6-that note to oneself, then the same thing with a consonant at the end instead of vowel, then the black bird
totally
aha. good trick... grrrr babble
I don't know if they are the first, but one is a reminder, and the other is the beginning of the blackbird. Not using the list yet so this may not be what you are looking for.
just taking up space that would have been filled better by a vowel.
nope got them
how about the fe6 that doesn't hunt rabbits?
Change the last consonant of the animal to get a word that looks wild
change the last letter crone
It sounds like a word for wild - change last letter on end of the other fe
back in a bit, checking on Son.
thanks guys
Bye everyone - movie time - 20 left for tomorrow
See ya lynxxx
nighty night!
hay... so what are the ems?
Good night lynxx.
You sound like you are an em 5/14 asking that emcleste
I have babblet Em4/8
ok I must go! 12 left grrrrr *poofs!*
Back again...
Hold on to yourself in the big city, Ata *hugs*
wb spanner... did she wake up?
see ya ata
Phew, the f's are gray.
Finally got that en 7 der.
hmm..
That em 5 is really a wheat - but it really does sound like someone who loves saying the middle letter of the alphabet
She woke up, dropped a glass, tried to pick it up, and cut herself...my life is a soap opera..
the em5 is the dutch word for bucket.
what, spanner??
Sorry...answered sprite..
You should have help with her, spanner, if she is going to stay. I mean it, it is hard on you.
ok.. just hope everything's ok
God forbid that any of us get to that age to find that we are unwanted...I just cant rely on her daughters to help..
usually one's own character has something to do with the being unwanted too, spanner *hugs* You have a good heart :)
thx sprite and ang :o)
Sprite I promise to do that thing for you as soon as I have a couple of free hours Sorry..
frey fret
don't even think about it, you've got your hands full as it is.
Sorry again, I cant cocentrate today Im off, bye each, hope your son recovers quickly sprite
Take care spanner
He will. Best of luck, spanner.
Morning everyone
hi ren8
I thought a small grid was on its way!!
it was, and it is here, and it is pretty easy!
Hello Sprite, how are you today?
why did it take me so long to see that there are two en possibilities?!
Son is ill, but otherwise ok. Some innocent but nasty virus
It took me a good while as well, Eva. But it opened the door.....
Eva: lack of sleep?
yes indeedy
well at least I can blame it on that for now(-:
I hope he gets better soon Sprite
There are duplicate possiblities top and bottom that are making me go crossed eyed, fe, re, en, er !!
Sure, he will, no problem. Doc said in a couple of days he should feel a lot better. He's on the couch now, next to me, playing with his gameboy - good sign.
fireworks! Can I clue something before hopping off?
Congrats sprite!!!
Congrats sprite
yay sprite!
well done Sprite
re7/40....not the sugar one please
Well done Sprite
bury again, Flask.
is there another re7/40?
And that is 7/28, the sugar one is 7/40.
No, only one, Eva.
that's a relief!
ignore me.....am confused...lol
fe7/48 please?
An innocent condition called babblism, Flask.
that was NO clue :)
fe7: being like a fe6/27
lol......I was wondering for a sec there!!
Ok - can anyone clue the second re 4/7
Found it thnx
re plus the possibility word?
11 left. Probably a good time to try to go back to sleep. See you later.
Bye Eva
Nite Eva
Bye Eva, snooze well.
The Parisian river is becomming a egualr visitor to babble.
*regular
Back shortly.
Fireworks for me. Earlier nite than usual
Thanks everyone for you help - never can do it without it
Congrats Ang
Well done Angb
Thanx all - can I be of any help before I go?
I am off, have a great day/night/whatever all of you and thanks for the fun and help :)
Nite sprite. Hope your son feels better soon
Bye sprite, speedy recovery for yr son.
Have a good day Sprite
Nite all -
Night Ang
Bye Angb
morning everybody, night ang and sprite:)
Hello, jean. Pretty quiet here.
seems to be, was in earlier, its all the different time zones lol
it's not the same without the fireworks - i'll have to do something about that
g'night all
your right crone, that prompted me to join up, goodnight sleep well:)
good afternoon all back to have babble
good afternoon ursh:)
And I'm back. 12 to find.....
welcome back Haz:)
Hello jean!
I feel really guilty playing this, lol my dogs are looking at me with doe eyes as if to say walk me now lol
Dogs everywhere have perfected that look! What's the weather like? Can you use that as an excuse to them?
havent they just Haz, well its not looking too good here in somerset, and the forecast has just told us to expect gales so better get out in the woods before that starts
Babble will still be here when you get back!
thats so true, my daughter is popping round in a mo so can use that excuse for a mo lol
You're sorted then, blame the daughter and not the obsession.
is the weather bad where you are Haz, I am good at excuses rofl
It's a bit grey and rain not far off. I should really head off with the dog soon before it gets worse.
Any help with the em 4,8 please?
good morning all
good morning hodag and hello merk:)
Hey, Jean. I started from the top and got the em5, but not the 4. Is it a totally odd word ... what a question for Babble.
it certainly is i'm not good at clues but try em 6th letter of alphabet then plural hope this helps
It does, Jean. Thanks.
yw:)
hi Jean how is the grid today?
em 4,8 try volts
its a bit strange with some words, i have four left and could be here some time lol
it looks interesting but I'm sure it will take a while.
en7 is not a plural of the en 6 is it? I am stuck.
no its not think road sign when you cannot go somewhere pluralise it
It's a plural all right, but of a totally different word. It gets so confusing when you can start words from two totally different directions, and there's a lot of that here.
I know it can throw you off the scent lol
er 4 ... I have the pl sea bird and the wrong, but can't find the third. I need another e or something.
to make mistake then plural
I have that. I have the bird pl. One other.
lol i need that one too!
G'd Morning All!
good morning LoriP:)
hi LoriP
er + consonant + plural, that one?
I trust everyone has suitably recovered from maximum turkey ingestion? :)
yes from yesterday but,to day is left-overs and some times that is even better its like help your self day!
finally fireworks:)
Congrats Jean!
gongrats jean
feel
oops!!!!!!!!!!!!!
merk have you got all the er ones now
right am off, have a fab day everyone and hopefully see you tommorow:)
Can anyone help me with the in8?
Have a good day Jean!
have a great day jean!
hi summer
hi hodag
i just started, so I'm no help. :(
summer extend in5/16
summer extend the in5/16
me either
right am definitely off now!
in8 - one who suggests something
Haz, I can't see it
got it thanks Haz
Use the in5/16, double the consonant at the end and add the US medical drama
summer-just like someone who buries things, but this is someone who suggests things
serr
sorry!
I got it, wasn't doubling a letter
Glad you got there.
T Y!
Lunchtime, time for a quick 5 mins in babbleland.
hi ya Fmitch
Hi hodag nice to see you
Hello FMitch - I'm still waiting for the weather to clear a bit.
Hi Haz, god excuse, have you hunted down all those pesky words?
I have. I rounded them up eventually.
Me too !!
what a cute little animal Fmitch is it yours?
Good for you. We can feel smug together.
It's a clue for the f6/27
FMitch - did you get your heating repaired or are you still multi-layered?
time to start the day....................later lol all
Heating is still out and the layered look is back in fashion. It probably won't be done until mid next week.
Bye hodag have a good one.
ty fmitch - love your clue - beautiful animals
en6/27?
Oh no! What a nuisance.
en6/27 - is to put someone into slavery (I was going to say bondage but you know what people are like here!!)
Later Hodag!
thank you ursh I love clue Fridays
thanks Haz, and yes, one has to be careful with one's words-such wicked minds here. That was it for me, fireworks!
Well done Eva!
Congrats Eve! LOL Haz
Congrats Eva!
Haz, do you have a clue to the en7 please?
so now do I have to do something useful with myself? (feed Merp, feed the woodstove,go for a walk,etc)
en7/28 - comes from the bottom en and means ways of getting in
Merp will be glad to see he is #1 on that list :)
well of course FMitch
Thanks, Haz. Haven't a clue what it is.
I love looking at your icon hydra-the epitome of relaxation
It's the opposite of exits.
Hi 6a
Oh! Doh!!! I am sooooo stupid. Thanks v much.
You're not stupid! It's twisty.
Now to tackle the f's. Is that a ferret, FMitch? Felix says, Prrrr, yes I'm a very relaxed cat. (He ate a rat in
(cont) the night and guess who trod in the remains?
6a-how's Oreo? When does he come home?
You're onto a good start with the fe words!
It is hydra and you just said a word!!! LOL
a rat? Not a mouse? That's a good hunter you have!
I've only found 3, Haz.
hi eva almost didn't see your greeting-howd you like mo 6?
I thought of you immediately when I got it! Wanted to tell you about it. Surprised that it was allowed.
have 10 left to find - will have to come back later bye all

Hi all have the fe7, may I have clues for the other 7's and the 8 please
Hi Peri
shorty, the em5 is a type of wheat... almost sounds like a girls name
night night all! (poof!)
in8 = to assume (5 letters) + the word ending that makes it a person who assumes
thanks Gwen, got the in5, now looking for the 8
en7 = en + tr5/10 (a house with a lot of doors has a lot of *******)
oh ty
the in8 uses three of the four upper left-hand letters
thanks Gwen got the en7
oh, scratch that. I mean upper RIGHT-hand letters.
fe7 = small furry animal (6 letters) + adjective ending
thanks Gwen, got the in8, kept forgetting to double the consonant in the middle
re7 = re + silly feature on back of a lot of 1950s car (3 letters) + ending that means one who does
so, are there a lot of us who also play math games? like sudoku? (this browser thinks I spelled that wrong!)
thanks Gwen, got the re7
don't like numbers and don't play any math games
love words and books though!
i'm not into math games either. very bad at them
looks like there are only two of us in here right now
Numners lose me fast. Words I like.
good afternoon everyone!
oh, that makes three 8-)
I am still here, just working on the puzzle.
Hi Mo
Numners? Apparently letter slose mefast as well. :(
Hi maraigold
Hi LoriP
Ack! I must stop typing....
therer are over 100 playing we are just the ones who are chatting
numners are how your brain feels when trying to work with numbers LOL
meant marigold!
I am not a fan of number games either. I love word games
can someone tell me what dumb thing I have done to miss the first fe 5/16 please?
Is one of the er 4 an alt. spelling of a British noble?
i would be willing to bet that most of us word-game nuts are not that excited about math/number games
hi periwinkle
fe5/16, leafy plant plural
Sorry LoriP, I don't have it
Thank you Book Doctor Gwen
just updated my icon to a clue from the grid.....te**
oh, sorry, you meath the other fe 5/16, which means to duck or perhaps to swoon
marigold, I got up at 7:45, do you still want me to be at your place at 10?
Duh, I am a day ahead of myself on the icons.
Must go and change
Thank ye. There's 20 minutes of my life I can't get back. To the coffee pot!
yes
okay
There that is better. I am all screwed up on my days with the holiday.
BDG whoa hold the phone, was that the first fe 5/16?
clues for the last 7 please
fe 4,8 clue please
Peri, I have 3 7's en 7/28, fe 7/48 and a re 7/40
fe + consonant + plural
do you need one of those?
Thanks, Mom, those are the ones I have
I guess we both need the last 7 then.
yep
No, I need an fe 4,8 not 7
I don't have it either. I hate re words.....
there's two re7s
Oh, the other consonant plural
Merk, there are two fe4 8 - both are short for not males
clue for the last re7 please
the "hard" one is what you steer horse with (4 letters) + when you're thirsty you want wa***
Merk, that is showing as fe 4/8 on mine, maybe you want the other fe 4/8?
Thanks, got them.
that was a clue for an re7, BTW
go it thanks, Gwen
Thank you Book Doctor Gwen, would never have gotten that one
Then what is the easy re 7?
keep learnin' goofy words in here. the secret is to keep a list of 'em!
that is a good idea!
merk, there is an re7 built off an fi 5/16
Where's the 8 anyway?
in 8/55 builds off the in 5/16
(i am also "addicted" to BookWorm and my list of weird words for that now has weird words for this game too)
I like Bookworm too
Love bookworm!
nothing could be ***** that to be in Carolina in the morning. Plus re on the front of that
I love Book Worm, it was a family affair for a long time.
***** than to be in carolina. howse come i can't type in this little box?
We kept one game up and whenever anyone went past the computer they would look for words
i have a list of words, about 100 pages long now, that helps me "remember" the weird ones. like alodia (that was from this game a wee while back
Book Dr when I asked for the first fe 5/16 you said leafy plant, did I miss something?
wow, that is impressive
lori, the first fe 5/16 means to duck. sounds like a word that means to keel over
Ahh, thank ye. Off I go.
fe + the kid who plays Ron Weasley is Rupert Gr***
Bye for now LoriP
Later Mom!
I can't believe I didn't get that on my own, and I'd be ashamed to admit how long I've spent on it. Thank ye.
bbl
Bye Peri
Later Peri
Is the word total 90?

Hi everyone - not just me who thinks it's hard today then
raced through earlier on and down to last 17 but well and truly stuck now
it was a tough one, I had to give up last night and come back refreshed this morning
Hi annotherone. It is quite tough.
would love coffee right now but soooooo darn hot and humid here
iced coffee, ursh? mmmmm.
87 left here (tehetehe
wish it was hot here ursh
hmm inge2 thats a plan but then a beer shandy would be nice
hot and humid, ahh the memories....
coffee float - coffee/ice cream whipped together - yum
Bloomin' freezing here!
mmm coffee and pumpkin pie YUMMY!:)
I can agree with you on that Jacula
cold, wet, miserable
Where you from LoriP??
what might a beer shandy be?
Nova Scotia
Beer and Lemonade mixed about half/half
ah Lori, another cannuck
oh, Nova Scotia is so pretty
Inge - Beer + lemonade.
OHHH Novia Scotia I love it and Prince Edward Island
Ah! What is called a Spezi in Germany
It's nice where I live, but winter is the price we pay for summer. :)
rather a Radler
What is a Cannuck??
am ashamed to admit, have never been east of Quebec
Cannuck - nickname for Canadian
i went there...it was so pretty, i love prince edward island
Beer shandy sounds like I might try it!
Shandy really nice when it is hot
We use to go to a bed and breakfast in PEI
Rather when the weather is hot not the beer
Flosey, same here, never been past Ontario. Gonna' do it some day, see the whole country
but it was to early to get Lobster
ursh - I thought you meant hot shandy for a minute. I was thinking, YUCK!
LOL ursh

So we started going to Maine
Me loves Maine.

Well done, riemann!
Lobster season starts here on Monday, dump day!

We say it too Smiley. Wicke cool, and wicked good.

this new zealand flag is too small to show essential detail, too. humph.
i usually say wicked awesome
Oops. meant atomic

looks like you can't change your player name. don't see a way to do it.
maybe sending a message to the host and asking nicely . . .
Wow, this whole housework avoidance thing is going quite nicely.....
inge2 your from Mass?
Lori - LOL.
yes, atomic, outside Boston
1 left to find and I just can't see it at all

Blast it! Well, I assume it isn't a real word anyway. :P
Yahd. Got it.
Are you in Boston Vicuna?
In the suburbs, yes.
Needham.
I have no accent, though I grew up here
cool
But I was born and raised in Ohio!
Where At?
Cleveland.
when i was in my teens, i was almost untranslatable because it was so thick
oh wow
Should try ciphering some of our accents... :)
when I go away for awhile, I get homesick for that Boston accent
Why wow? Where's Hilliard?
need any more Inge?
thats only a few hrs from me why are you in Boston now Job reasons?
still working on the em5...dumb today, I guess.
close to Columbus
FIREWORKS!:)
Husband's job reasons, to be specific. But we really like it here and don't intend to move if we can help it.
about1/2 hr from Columbus
Yay for Jacula!
got it. And Woohoo Jacula!
Congrats jacula! (not premature this time)
I don't know the Colombus area at all; I've been down there only a few times.
Thanks. I was just thinking... Wouldn't it be difficult if the day came when the words 'fireworks', 'hello', 'goodbye', 'grid' and 'clue' were all in the grid?:(
"Fireworks" would be worth a boatload of points!
LOL JAC
'Fireworks' would be an fi9/114.
Save a housewife, someone ask for a clue!
en 6, the feudal slave didn't work for me
en + what you do on big waves, different vowel
ahh, ty, the slave shoula worked for me, just on m y first cup of coffee
Speaking of housewifely duties, I have laundry to do and Scotch eggs, lasagne & fresh fruit salad to make. I'd better go and put my pinny on, I guess.
Hi guys...em 4.8 clue anyone please?
em +6th letter plural
type of frequency, abbreviated
Wow, thx...who knew.
Happy Babbling, all. Byeee.x
Jacula is right. I must go and do soemthing constructive. Bye Jacula, bye all!
Bye Jac

I thought I still had a lot left, only four. Drawing to a close, I'm sad. That means I'll have to start cooking all day :(
Sniff, done.
Any clues before I destroy my kitchen?
Oh Kee Doh, bye all.
hi everyone
ty 5,14 clue please
Bunny, did you leave? I am almost finished and totally stuck on the ty 5.
can I have a clue for the first fe 5/16?
merk, just started, dont have that
plural of 4,6, merk
do you have the fe 5/16
Then my 4,6 is wrong. What's the clue for that?
fe 5 is feeling light headed, ready to pass out, alt spelling
fe5,16 when you pass out you... slightly different spelling
thank you, merk and ric
4,6, your car has 4 of them, again different spelling
ty Ric
good morning.... are we all recovered?
ready for 8 straight days of work dorens. :(
I am. We all went to a restaurant (first time ever) and it was wonderful
good for you annie... i still have a few things to put away and a refrigerator crammed wioth stuff i don't even want to look at (not that it isn't tasty, but calaorie-laden) pappa I love today's picture!
I have the four ty things for my car and its plural. I'm missing the last ty 4,6. Please, a clue
does it rhyme with colors?
thanks dorens, I used it once before, but didn't set up a new one today
same 3 letters merk
en 7.28 anyone?
just started and the last three fe's are making me batty, any clues for the first fe/27, are the three related
Annie-- fe6/27...like the rodent but change last consonant
annie, my son's girlfriend has a chinchilla, and thought about getting a fe****
fe 6/27 sounds like something wild
there are just too many f's r's and m's in this grid!!!!
thanks, dorens and grace and anike
Hi again everyone
hi mom....just finished up the last of MY mom's apple pie (healthy breakfast....eat it with cheddar cheese for protein)
I had to see my company off for home for a few minutes. I don't understand the final ty 4,6 clue.
This is my first game back after 2 weeks driving around Australia but to prove my brain hadn't gone stale i wanted to finish without clues - at last Fireworks""
APPLE PIE! I love apple pie!
merk take the first 3 letters you used in the other ty's and plural it
my moom spoiled me annie, I hardly ever eat anyone else's cause hers really is special!
sounds like something you wear around your neck
yay for anike!
rhymes with what a bottle blonde does to her hair
hooray anike!
I had pumpkin pie for my breakfast with whip cream for the dairy portion of the food groups
It won't take it.
well thats not good, lol
Oh yes, it will. I spelled it wrong. ty.
sure you don't already have it?
lol mom/.... but it tasted good, right
ah
it was great.
since I did not cook, I had an "everything" bagel with cream cheese....yummy, yummy with coffee
We still have a whole pumpkin, a whole apple and 1/2 a pecan pie left
c'mon annie... let's go to Mom's
anyone have a clue for re7,28 please?
can anyone clue the first te5/10?
I have a pumpkin pie in the refrigerator for later
I'll open the door and set the table
te5,10, you ... past or present te...
*rushing out the door to get to Doren's Mom's apple pie...whoooooosh!*
plulral of bird, grace?
ignore the 'you'
no, singular bird, grace?
re 7/28 someone who leases an apartment with another vowel - or to re-bury
nope...have both of those te 5/10s already.
ty anike
mo 6,24 clue please
te 5/10 plural of the bird without last vowel
merk, rhymes with monster
who's apple pie do I like, Merk? + not my sist**'s
mo 6/24 is mo 4/6 + er
momer
so sorry
not who makes it, but whose is it? it's not you, but yours
No more chatting for me
(meaning there's an extra consonant in there)
lol i'm using a graphic tablet and forgot where i put the pen - couldn't move the blooming curser for 5 mins
ty, do you have the first me 5,12
similar to the te you asked for, merk
yes merk, it's got to do with our cycles (us females)
hello, so far I have four words and none of them would make an icon....
sorry grace asked for it
ty
ty
not a problem harpjane, your icon is very adorable!
I've finished and have a few minutes before bed time so if anyone needs clues let me know
thanks dorens!
I supposed I could leave it up and say the cat is te6/18 than the dog!
there you go!
five left...all e and i words...
i jnust found the i 8 word... and it uses three of the four r's
just curious anike, where do you live? I'm just waking up and you're just off to bed....
i just need em5,14 and en7,28 - these are hiding well
Perth, Western Australia
first in anyone?
en7/28 comes from the en at the bottom. It means doorways etc
em5 double that m, ric
ah! That's almost half way around the world from Montana!
lazy, not moving grace?
em 5/14 em = mal de ***
em5/14 - em plus the first part of the word my icon is clueing
thx dorens
two Es left!
Perth is half way around the world from everywhere but I wouldn't live anywhere else
thanks haz...your clue helped me with my two missing m words
ty all got it
That's good - a bargain clue!
absolutely, since i alredy had the word you were actually cluing! -- nice trick
which e's are you looking for GraceM?
en6 anyone?
sorry grace, don't have
en6 - to put someone into slavery
en6, a water sport with a different vowel
anike, it's on the coast, right? I don't know my WA geography very well.
Yay! fireworks! thx Haz and everyone else!
yay grace
congrats
Congratulations Grace!
i think there must be a time delay from here because just as i get a clue typed out 3 others appear on screen so i don't bother
anyone need a clue before I go?
lol its a java refresh - doesn't update as often as it should
greetings all, I would love help with the yi 4.6 please
Oh, always bother anike. We all think in different ways and it can help people to see various clues for a word.
i need a different kind of java refresh... as in fresh cup of coffee
Perth is on the southern part of the west coast - 4000km from Sydney (I have just driven there and back)
yi4/6 - Scottish for ones
eww coffee - get some yorkshire tea ;-)
really? You drove to Sydney from Perth? I"m impressed!
That would be like driving to Panama from Alaska!
When did they start growing tea in Yorkshire?
Anike - my daughter is heading to Perth as her first stop on a years working holiday
lol i don't know where its grown, but its called "yorkshire tea" so..
What's the M from the third ros?
make that third row?
thanks Haz, but I'm still at a loss for the Y, no idea what a Scottish one is ........
the y*** and yangs, contrary
contrary - do you know the Scottish comedian Billy Connolly - he calls himself a big yi* plural that - or add the 2 directions for the poles
Do you know the Scots comedian, Billy Connolly? His nickmame is The BIg Y**.
thank you Dorins....got it. the simple ones really aren't always simple
course not, contrary....that's the way of it
must be what keeps me coming back :)
Fireworks!
you miean it's not our quick wit and friendly banter?
yay merk!
en7 please? its my last word and i've been looking for too long now :-(
Ypee, inspite of going shopping at 6 a.m. inspite of having house full of company, I managed to finish. My apologies to those who were in teh chatlog when I started, typed in a number of wrods, and never noticed until half an hour later. Just wondered where my words had gone. Doh
en7 - opposite of exits.
I'm back again, ...yay for merk

clue for the fe 6/27, not the rodent, please?
Change the rodent's last letter for another consonant. The word looks 'wild'
comedian will fe*****
fe 6/27 change the last letter of the rodent to sound wild
aha, thanks dorens
and anike
updated my icon for thanksgiving, since i wasnt online yesterday. :)
Very good!
thanks anike
entirely appropriate eva n, since many of us are eating turkey again today anyway
M from the 3rd row?
indeed. my roommates have enough leftovers to make a whole new meal!
mo6/24 - an illegitimate child (Jewish origins I think)
No, I'm wrong, it doesn't come fron that tile.
mo4/6 before the plural mothers
m from 3rd row - mother + e
mo + **, not you
thanks dorens & anike

Good morning Babblers. 91 words---but how frustrating is the grid?
very
hi scrabbler
Hi Annie, rolin, et al...OK, I'm diving in
It certainly has a few words that are interesting.
Phantom: uadragintesimal
lmao..
good one, Ka
Yep..... almost had it
LOL is there a plural for that?
ok..heres a clue..the first word...em4/8...doesnt exist in dictionary.com..doesnt give me confidence..
two or three?
em 4 is a weird one
em and large point tile and plural
its UNBELIEVABLE. ;)
Think electromotive force for em4/8
it's the difference in electric potential, by definition.
em 4/8 --- made by the worlds finest gourmands: che**
That em4,8 is in the Scrabble dictionary
okay, please clue for in 8/55, please
Grid also accepts fets which is abbrev for field effect transistors
You should keep it there!!
in8 is word for someone who suggests something from information
in 8 --- the actor who implies
mo6?
build on the in5/16
mo6 is alt spelling for a child born of a marriage forbidden in Judaism
mo 6 --- not dad and add msn is my internet ***viceprovider
mo 6 has become my new favorite word.
thanks lori!
Fireworks for me and now tea!
yay for spellit
Great work, spellit. 66 to go for me.
congrats, spellit!!
Some really odd words today
Congrats spellit!
mo 6 is a contradiction
The poor vowels are outnumbered, and pushed aside
*diving into grid looking for in 8* splash!
perhaps mo 6 more accurately has gender issues
hallo, babblers, I am back. Is chj still here?
company here, bye all
sorry, inge, wasn't my turn to watch
bye, Annie
re5/20 and in8/55 please

From newspaper----An earthquake with a magnitude of at least 4.5 struck off the northwest coast of the Big Island on Thursday in the same area where two stronger temblors struck last month. The quake, centered about 11 miles northwest of Puuanahulu, shook homes on the Big Island, Maui and Oahu, but it did not produce a tsunami threat, according to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center. The U.S. Geological Survey estimated its magnitude at 5.0; the Tsunami Warning Center estimated it at 4.5.

on the main island
The quake, centered about 11 miles northwest of Puuanahulu, shook homes on the Big Island, Maui and Oahu, but it did not produce a tsunami threat, according to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center.
bubba reported the details at 5:14
there's a huge international bridge tournament going on

i just spoke to my nephew from costa rica yesterday
i know they have a lot of earthquakes
The U.S. Geological Survey estimated its magnitude at 5.0; the Tsunami Warning Center estimated it at 4.5. Boulders and other debris forced the temporary closure of Highway 19 near Laupahoehoe on the Big Island, said state Department of Transportation spokesman Scott Ishikawa. The quake knocked out electrical service to about 5,900 customers in North Kona and Kalaoa on the Big Island for a little more than an hour, Hawaii Electric Light Co. said. No other damages were reported

heh, true!
i find it really irritating that i put in a word that is there and it wont show up on my list.

oh good. i was hoping it wasn't too obscure
Hi book
no it was good because i didn't know the word so i had to figure it out
hi gwen
i finished the puzzle too fast, now itching for new puzzle 8-)
got a bit of a wait for that to happen Book. lol that's why i'm here cluing
ok, back, going to go look up that zip code now!
ahh, odd combo at the end, no wonder i didn't see it
lb, lovely "wheat" ya got there. one of the new words i learned today, i suspect.
ok, 30 left, getting the list
thank book. yes it was a new word for me to learn.
so i was wondering, do any of us also like to play math games, like sudoku?
i play sudoku at www.websudoku.com, i'm not very good but it's fun
^ very bad at math games!
i love the websudoku site
i don't think of sudoku as math...more logic
^ not very good at anagrams, either. the letters have to be in the right order, if twisty
(logic is a subset of math) (she said, using a math term!)
chess is a math game, at its core, whic is why i'm not all that good at chess either
i'm afraid to try the letters. i'm wonky enough with my typing! oh true about logic and math, but if i don't think of it as math, i don't break out in hives! lol
my old college roomy played chess like football. man on man! sacrifice a bishop for a rook or pon!
LOL!! lb
worst part tho she'd win! i think she just liked to blow everyone's mind with her skills!

still don't get it, is it an American word d'you think? Or am I just being thick?
lizmac, end the word so that it rhymes with curl...differnt spelling
he to barf different vowel
Got it, not really used that way here!
It's not a spelling that I am familiar with in America either

Hooray, words are no match for me
I just bought the grammar book: Eats, Shoots and Leaves. Has anyone seen it. It's great!
No, but it has a catchy title
the comma makes all the difference
right, it is a joke about a panda, right jane?
think about it, with the commas, we're talking about a guy who robs a diner.
think about it, with the commas, we're talking about a guy who robs a diner.
without the commas, its about what a panda does.
One of the many "joys" of the English language
A panda walks into a café. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and proceeds to fire it at the other patrons. "Why?" asks the confused, surviving waiter amidst the carnage, as the panda makes towards the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder. "Well, I'm a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up." The waiter turns to the relevant entry in the manual and, sure enough, finds an explanation. "Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."
Eat Lunch and Get Gas or Eat Lunch, And Get Gas
The student, said the teacher, is crazy. OR...the student said the teacher is crazy.
What is this thing called, honey? OR...what is this thing called honey?
The kids, who got ice cream, were very happy. OR...The kids who got ice cream were very happy.
Woman, without her man, is nothing OR Woman: Without her, man is nothing
and so on....
Punctuate this so that it makes sense:
Jim where John had had had had had had had had was what the others had had
haha bet i beat you to it jane ;)
sorry my head just exploded
Jim, where John had "had", had had "had had." "Had had" was what the others had had.
Why would someone have "had had"
:)
I've clearly had enough punctuation for the week. Gotta go make rum cake now!@
Here's one of my favorites: Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.
"had had" is some sort of subjunctive participle. Not used too often.
i'm heading out too. good night folks
mmmm rum cake ...arrrrghhhhhhhh
first,pour eight ounce of rum into the cook....
that's a lot of rum
a good start to any evolution jane (except driving of course)
later leslieann
ok hx, i give up. I can get through four bison words then i'm stuck
There's a wikipedia article about it :)
