Hi muse and fran and tnc
Jean-- my school (Malvern) moved to Brymore, Cannington, near Bridgewater in Sept 1939 for a short time. Hubby and I went back in 1968 and nothing had changed except that it is now a boys' school.
Hi, everyone--thanks, chic

hi miranda
hi miranda
Hi miranda
Hi Mirandapan

thanks, hurshy
yes cnan, in8, i just posted
Been to BAth too -- hasn't everybody? ;D
But of course!
I have read your profile jilli, you have certainly seen the world, did you enjoy Wells when you came here?
I've been chatting too much -- haven't found any 8s or more than 19 words so far
mirandapan did you like wells also?
thanks, hurshy
in8/55 x 2
Jean, it was so long ago -- I remember the cathedral for sure but not in detail
lol I havent been able to sleep tonight so gave in and came on here, and Im glad I have now, so many people who know Wells this is exciting
thanks, broll
I loved it Jean--I go to the UK every year. We had such a good time in Wells, walking around in the cathedral and on the grounds, eating...
that's a weird 'un
yw
We are lucky jilli as Wells hasnt really changed that much in the last few years, it is still a relatively quiet town/city
thanks broll
and hursh
stupid no S... 3 8's and neither of the 7's!
guess I'd better buckle down to the grid...
lose a vowel hurshy. hello all
mirandapan isnt the cathedral and around the moat so lovely, even tho I live close I always find it relaxing and feel very priviledged to live so close
I'm off to bed, busy day again tomorrow but will try to finish early

Hi Jilli
(the old order changeth and gives place to the new, or something...)
nite mom
how are you doing with the i from the top row, hurshy?
i spose the original pl of genius was genia... latin is dead and decaying, alas
metal -- I think you said earlier that your idon would be a sample of your needlework -- ? Lovely.
got 3 of those
Morning all :)
hi mari
I just have two
morning mari:)
no! my brain is overtired! the latin is not as dead as i thought!
genius pl would be genii if I remember my Latin -- too bad it's not taught any more
just found the third
hurshy--isn't the Latin pl of genius on the board?
im4, im5, id4
it still is jilli, my son is taking it and loves it
im 5 x2, hurshy
sorry -- I said a wooord!
no, i misspoke, 2 im5
yes, i have not got an im4
So glad to hear that -- but how come?
thanks jilli!
im 4, im 5x2, id 4
that's what I meant (pl of gen.)
there is an im 4
i DID have im4, it was id4 that hadn't gone.
must have typoed it at the beginning when i was going fast.
my son's school offers a choice of 5 languages, Latin, Spanish, French, German, Chinese - and junior year they have option of adding Italian or Greek
wow, the schools in aruba are fab!
lol, hurshy it's in NY
just need one i from the 2nd column now
Good scholl, muse -- where?
NYC?
joking of course
i need one 2nd col and one 1st
yes jilli
1st col i have focussed
ah, plan.
the dreaded 14...!
public or private, muse? (I wen to school in NYC long ago)
it's private, all scholarship
i's are grey
kewl, muse :D
aw man!
oh no -- still need one more!
iniae
in5, 7, 8, 8, 4, what do i need?
sorry!!!
ha! it's ok :)
in 6
in 6 x 2
mymuse - only talking second col - is that what you mean or...?
just know that i have an in6 hursh
same for me
and second column is gray
Does that fab school have a name, muse? Or would you rather not say?
well are your in's focussed and plan?
rather not say jilli for obvious reasons
means unbecoming or disgraceful hursh
hmmm, intriguing.
got it! thanks
still looking for the second 6 that miranda hinted at
*pictures applicant pool flooded with babble children*
do you have the in + te4?
anyone have the bottom N?
yep
oh, have 2 more in6
but still missing an i from middle column

passion-orange-guava juice
bye jean!
yes! that's it! I haven't had it in about seventeen years, but it was lovely, and it would have lots of the stuff that helps fight colds.
too much sugar though, it's a juice cocktail so they add sweeteners
hm. maybe there is some at a natural food store that wouldn't?
not that you're probably feeling up to shopping at the moment...
well, especially not now, it's after 10. :-)

ty trick
Morning all. Someone upgraded Explorer to 7.0 when I wasn't looking. Hmmmm
all the puzzle done, was a toughie!
matty, nice to see you!
Ditto :D
Congrats, CyborgScrabbler!
yes Fm. just have to wrap gifts and bake cookies.
don't use ie matty, its insecure, unreliable, slow, and doesn't follow web standards
Hi hohoho matty.
i'm an opera fan myself but most use firefox these days
I've only ever use IE and have not had any problems
honestly i'm a web developer, don't use ie lol
I use Firefox for most stuff, but Babble 'blinks' on Mozilla
Tricky ... IE7 now addresses all security problems, you cannot write outside of the temporary directory
yea babble has some odd javascripting - i have to use konqueror for full support
you guys have lost me !!lol
i've not tried ie7 as i don't have any windows systems anymore to fiddle with, so can't comment there but i'd be very surprised if its reached the standard set by such as mozilla yet
axed
!@%#%#&*
badsanta bad Snata!!!!
lol
IE7 is great, it now has a taskbar for quick swapping between sites, a refresh all feature and thumbnail view of all open sites ... relative addressing of graphics stored on the C drive anywhere other than the Temporary files directory is blocked, just like firefox
nah, just an inadvertencty that reminds us periodically that we are human.
apart from global refreshing, opera's had those features for years :-)
Hi ho Babble,human is good...lol
exactly, IE7 is up there with the big boys again :-)
one thing to remember though is that explorer is both a web and file browser, and many of windows' tools use it as a rendering engine. thus regardless of how locked down it may be, it still provides system level access to your file system. whats more windows gives the default user full administration by default which is a huge security risk in itself
Fonts are different - and it will just take me a bit to get used to the new interface.
Tough puzzle, or is it just me?
Are those the only choices?
me too matty...lol
It's not that easy matty but the small one usually do make us work.
browser helper objects (ie's toolbar plugin layer) can also be exploited almost infinately due to poor design. many 'adult' dialers and zombie trojens install themselves transparently as browser helper objects for ie
and no, its not an easy board
Tenge is missing from the puzzle solutions ... Tenge is the monetary unit of Kazakhstan
all countries seem to be missing too - is that accidental?
how is it you can know so many words and yet none of them work???
as do nationalities
it has pound, dollar and yen, wonder why not tenge?
The enable dictionary is arbitrary; there is no other answer. Reference to that point has been made in a number of places at the Friend of Babble links below.
remeber that enable is not the ultimate word database (otherwise the grids would prob be about 600+ every day)!
fair point
though i might at least find a good 100 at that, lol
Enable is a published wordlist and Tenge is part of it
Gosh, it looks like I need the list already. Sigh
speaking of words - any clues for the second ge5,14 please?
nobody wants to answer ....sucks to be me~~~~~~~
Answer what?
Tricky ... it is what you would call a collective of gaseous creatures who live in little lamps lol
i was waiting for someone to clue
cheers, i'll work on that
love your icon ana..
and grant wishes
ahhhhhhhhh ty
i'd tried that already but with alternate spellings
tks
If that's the 2nd ge5, what's the 1st one?
ge4,6 with an extra const
ah..thanx
yo hohoho chiley,hows it going for you this morning?
Great so far...coffee is brewing. It's "cool" here in South Florida. That will help give me the Christmas Spirit.
Good for you,how cool is it?
2 extra and one less conso
66
it is 20 here in n.mi.
I'll settle for 66, thanks
anyone have a clue for the ae6?
stick the sound of a bell on the end
ae6 = ae + eat
formal eating
ae + word for formal dining
ae6 ... latin meal
i m looking for the in8 if anyone could help??
thanks dorky and sparkly!
I would to. HI HOHOHO ch.
oops sorry don't know what i was thinking there =)
there are 2 in8 -- one means someone who is too poor to pay, so the county or city picks up the tab.
the other is the same only with a consonant for the last letter instead of a vowel
thanks ch1212, much appreciated
in8 ... hip girl with man
short leave time for more hot choc..
NE1 need a clue?
cyborg, if you mean the first ne, it's a type of tide
does anyone need a clue?
ah, I see! :)
i could use as many in clues as you have, lol
you got the biggies?
i don't have any :-(
18 words to find and 8 of them are in* lol
Thanks for the offer, Cyborg.... I am going to continue plodding along.
IN8 - hip lady with gent & IN8 - hip lady in denum
Good morning all. Cyborg, that clue is clueless to me.
TE8 - what babies use rings for
ty cyborg i'll get thinking..
in8 is very similar to word for native peoples
IN8 - first two letters are opposite of out
lol
lol
i'm back ahhhhhhh this taste good, Hiya Merh
and the lady WAS the name of a princess
And a sense of humor, too.
sorry for the h Merk....lol
mixing
I can't find the ae...I've seen the clue, but it's not helping.
cold meds will do it every time!!!!
ae6 - latin lady north-east ... the lady being the same princess
ae6 - ae + you **** at a ***ing table..
ae + d4/5
ae + loud noise + vowel
Thanks guys!
no problem - how about the na 8
yay got the second in8, ty
now for the denim hmm
denim trousers say
I live in an apartment building ... the people about me have been VERY actively intercoursing for quite some time .... would it be appropriate for me to go ask for their autographs?
ah got it
ty
lol babblerabble, sounds like a plan
na8 - sodium ecstacy object
and with it a 7
LOL Rabble - I think you should! Gather a crowd if you can.
got it thanks cyborg
Get someone to videotape it.
holy sh** babble
Their response might be a hoot.
A round of applause would be in order as well.
send her flowers for the great performance lol
stuck in a moment of time~~~~~~~~~
I need coffee. I didn't get the sodium ecstasy clue either ... though I did get the in 8s.
This is a weird grid, in case you didn't notice.
na8 ends in the hand from the adams family
na + vowel + obscure item
chemical symbol for sodium, and a vowel
good day all.
also sounds and looks similar to the opposite of something - ie if it isn't something, its...
howdy HoHoHo Alien
It's always harder when its by itself, nothing to build on, no way to get the ABC order.
oh i hear ya there merk
back in a bit
Got it, thanks.
Those were great clues.
And I got a few other words off it.
Something that helps my door open and close.
thanks to the na 8 cluers
So that leaves me one more 8 to find. I haven't even looked for where it is yet.
te8 , what a baby uses a ring for
Good Morning all, got the na8 and te8 from clues, thanks, need more help with the in8 please
Now I get it.
Peri, someone gave a great clue earlier about someone who has to live off welfare because they are needy.
evening all... nice small grid today. :)
Hiya Peri.
in + deceased british princess + chivalrous man, other 8 ends with dna
thanks so much Merk, didn't see that clue,
As with the other day's grid, that suffix places a significant part in some of the longer words.
thanks dorky, got all the 8's now
Yo HoHoHo MRP.

Very good mrp.....lol
I got stuck with the xmas hat that said Ho Ho Ho... I politely turned it down! :)

thanks mrp, couildn't see but took your word for it
Tenge is in the dictionary but Babble says it isn't. Anyone else hit this problem?
babble is just not hip hydra!
Yes, many times. Too, quite often the grid takes words that are NOT in the dictionary.
a lot of my words aren't in the dictionary - usually because i don't spell them right :-)
That and my computer scanner are driving me crazy. I scanned three chapters of someone's book, which I have to edit this weekend, and it's all gone wonky. I despair!
Lickety just handed me a scrumptious asparagus, olive and mushroom anomaly.... (HELP)
mrp you made me LOL

bob and/or bill may be offended?
te8/55 please?
lol
what babies do that make them cry
i guess it wouldn't be a good idea to name my kids after worms then..

There's a ta 8?

I mean, only ta6 and ta7. My brain is still in first gear this AM.
*looks dazed and confused*
I only have a ta 6 & 7
there is no ta8
im still\looking for the other in8
Phew! Thought I was gonna' have to hit the espresso.... :)

The in 8's one ends in a vowel, one ends in a consonant
i clued both in8's a few mins ago
A quick glimpse at the list reveals another in8,55
thx lori

TY Lori--got it.

Acn you imagine a grid with over a thousand words--I would log out immediately.
ge 4/6 5/14 5/14 4/6 4/6
bet youwoouldn't
scrabbler, caffeine is not helping me either, it's points not words---can you imagine 1113 words
th = an object is a *****
Lori have that one, it is the first th5/16 I need
That many words would have me signing myself into a mental ward
Sorry Peri. Caffeine isn't helping my thought processes this moen
*morn
Yes, we would all be inthe Babble Ward together, with Stidmama reading us stories. LOL
and no bar! : (
cept on the windows of course
th 5/16 == an article and a doctor *y*ocologist
The first th5 is an old english word for not mine but ____
LOL TO, maybe a nice toddy of rum added to my coffee would help.
LOL, TO! I hope you could have your hair dryer--we would want you to look your best
lol but of course!
TY BR

Good idea, chj... I will start this PM
babble, 32nd ave south or north?
if you mean 32nd STREET then just walk toward 6th avenue
south
thanks Lori and Blood
take university norht to 13th ave s. take a right, then go north on 10th street until you get to main ave.
how bout the upper right E? any clues?
i assume we are not talking about nyc
take a right on main and it itersects with broadway about 4 blocks down.
thanks, Blood. Have it copied.
gran - you stand on the ed*** of a cliff.
ed4,7--think rim, lip of the Grand Canyon, DOn't fall over the ed4, 7
oh duh, shoot me
yw babble. i miss that town.
Not til you get fireworks, grammaterri
Help on the ai6 ?
can't se the first te4/5
another way to get to broadway is to sleep with the producer
actually, babble, switch that. don't go right on main. take NP ave instead.
ge5,14, not the one that rhymes with te5,10
mrwrite - when you help someone you are ai**** them.
Great id4,5, chj.
ge5 ge* X + WW**
peri, its covered with bra

Babble have that as a te4/4

Well, chj, then I am no genius.

HAHA...that's great TO!
all i want is to see the windows and eat a good knish

harp - it's an na8>
need one of the last ge4/6 have short version of nice man
blood, can you seethe today show?
na sounds like scottish way of saying zilch, nada, nichevo, zero
na* + th5/16
i don't think so TO. i might be able to find a webcast though.
temple, I saw the windows last week, quite beautiful and the knishes I get a Nathan's....a babble convention at rock center....quite the sight
ge4,6 sounds like type of cheese
*at
hold that thought! it's only a short bus ride away for me. but i don't know my way around. and i don't have a tshirt
which windows are best this year annie?
thanks Scrabbler and that did it for me, FIREWORKS

Yay Dorens!
YAY for Dorens
I spent several hours in the Macy's women's bathroom one year, about 1977 or so. It was a lounge area, with chairs to sit on, etc. I had several hours to kill and didn't want to sit in a coffee shop. It was quite interesting. Turns out total strangers are quite forthcoming in the Macy's bathrooms!
pa 5 == add a decade
yay for dorens!!!!
well GMA is indoors - how do they get in?
that was my Christmas in New York experience!
LOl, Jane
TY, BR--duhs for me. 1 T left

new yawkers are very forthcoming anyway!
pa 6 == add teepee or put
i don't get the scottish nothing clue
probably stand around in line forever...and it can be just too cold that early in the morning
see you all tomorrow
how do scots say no?
bye blood - see you tomorrow!
That, and asking people where the Empire State Building was. It turned out we were literally right in front of it. But we got directions for all over town!

****Fireworks*** TY all for clues! Group effort today due to having mush for brains.
i guess it's part of the new yorkk experience for out of towners, annie
More importantly, why would anyone get up at dawn at all? :-)
bye, temple!!!!!
Congrats Scrabbler!
Anybody need clues?
WTG, Scrabbler!

Exactly Annie. :)
dorens, annie: hold those thoughts. I'd love it!
I'd love to owl.... we can definitely set something up... there are a couple of us around that week, i would think
I thought it was nice 'n easy today (apart from one or two really peculiar words). I have the Fireworks
temple, am holding the thought!
Once in a while (like every ten years or so) it is nice to see a sunrise. but in the winter...crawling out of a warm bed.... i don't know about that!

Now, I live near Coney Island so that is how Nathan's comes into play....yummy franks too

anyone care to clue the in6,27?
in6,27 - in + what you do with a shovel + consonant
ty
I'm down to two left: mi6,27 and ai6,27
Not sure if I ever would have found that one
hi, i'm back
Yeah, that in6,27 wasn't a nice one
i need the 2 te 5/10's
pretty please
ai6,27 With a gun you take ai*. Then extend it
te5,10 - a bunch of laws are made individually of these
te + volleyball ***
One te 5/10 is a fundamental belief
te + chronicles of nar***
mi6,27 dig for gold. Same ending as ai6,27
i hjave the in8's and the na8...whats the other pls?
in6,21?
thnx
thanks for the ai clue, MK
yw
te8 - what babies go through before they can chew their food
mkt..in6/21...you 'mean' to do it
clue for na8?
thanks rolin.
thx mrwrite
in6,21 = in + te4,5
how many in8's are there
Afternoon all, how is the grid today?
Fireworks...and didnt have to ask for clues!!
There are two in8 words - differing only in the last letter
enomis na8...scottish sounding way of saying zero null
1st th 5/16
pab...2 in8's
Double Woot MO!
hey haz
na8 is a scottish variant for a lack of items
Well done Mo, I wish I could do that
last clue? ap5?
Hello rolin - enjoying your Saturday afternoon?
ap5 - insect especially fond of roses
thanks got it
i have...been doing some travel research..and cookery research...and ive bought car insurance..
hello
should be marking of course...but hey...gotta have some time off
1st th 5/16
I don't get thescottish
last clue I need mi6,27 anyone?
Buying car insurance for young adults is hair-raising.
oops I don't get the scottish clue...
The scottish no looks like n plus a latin plural ending.
thanks Haz. For some reason I was trying to put six letters together for that word.
Enomis: na + vowel + th5,8
enomis..think of our word for zero... then remeber its starts with na...
same as ni6/27
and I need the mi 4/5 after the brain
haz...ive long lost claim\to the young title..lol
got it ty rolin
hi everyone and I can agree with you on that one Haz
mrwrite: the act of mi 4/6
I was thinking about the first time I got an insurance quotation for my daughter, then aged 18. It was horrendous!
phand not yours but mi**
4/5 rather
good grief! I thought I had that one already; thnk
oh yes i know...and the fact that only now you can put kids on your insruance and they can earn their own no claims
my son just got his renewal quote for his second year - nearly half what it cost for the first year
are there any gn words?
and the 1st th 5/16?
no
At least it's coming down, annotherone!
i cannot think about the middle top row i words..
last year, his first year, it cost him nearly £1400
gno rolin
wow annother...what sorta car?
It's ghastly, isn't it? And yet, you can't or shouldn't do without it.
hna hna...lol

next to last
a clue for in7/40 please
after the 4/4 and before the 6/18
is it the one that means what you mean to do? that's a 6/21 I just found
ren - see my clue at 11:23
you're right wolvie - fireworks
I have not got the 8's yet
WTG another!!
ty - I seemed to have a blank spot about building from the left column today
ah. well, the 8's are almost the same as each other - one means without means. the other ends in the second vowel instead of a t. the 7 is either of those words minus their last letter.
any minute now family will descend wondering when I'm going to start on the next meal :(
LOL - i hear you another - I made soup for tonite early on.
the first word I saw when I started today's puzzle was one of the in8's
that's funny - me too another
th 5/16?
I thought - going to be a quick and easy one today......
the first one, please
ren - did you see my clue for the 8's?
here comes the first family member
I have that th as what somet**** is, natasha
I have that one wolvie, need the first th 5/16 if you have it, please
another - clue for the na 8 before you leave?
I don't natasha, sorry
thanks anyway. the na8 : scottish way of saying null
na8 na + vowel + th5/16 wolvie
thanks another!
I didn't know that word existed - makes sense tho
and thanks natasha
th5/16=th+2nd vowel + first half of alt spelling for little fly or mosquito
this is too weird. I typed in the na 8 and it hasn't appeared on my word list nor has the tile gone gray. If I type it in again, it says I already have it. Is this strange?
thnaks natasha and wolvie for the great clues
I would say that is strange, bichon. wow
hi ursh
that sometimes happens to me bichon
that happens to me sometime bichon, usually refreshing takes care of it

hi rae
hi rae

hi rae! thanks Aloyisius!!!!!!!
depends on how much time you have miles - I sometimes can sit and finish, sometimes up and down a lot

hi smaller, aloy, wolvie
glad you got it, smaller

lordy is it the tapeworm again?
hi all
at the bottom of this page, there is a list of friends of babble, other sites. in that list is a page called lickety's babble clues - open that, and it lists the words with the first 2 letters and points
hi feather
girlfirday - very vowel friendly. all but 2 letters 1st and 4th
lol, it is! the worm and its pl
hi feather
2nd ge5/14?
hi featherbee!
miles, if you go to the section of links on the bottom right, the two that will really help are angelsong's page and lickety's
tapeworm? oh no - I don't remember how to spell that!
ok, to the list..
okay, got the six
i'm pretty proud of myself....down to 31 left and no list yet!
i'm sure i'll be getting it out soon though
thanks,
and the 7, by just monkey typing, trying all vowels. Thanks!
I wait till I have 3/4 done, so I hit 19 left and now feel I can go to the list... self-imposed so my brain keeps working
I am going to the list with 16 left...
good job wolvie and aloy!
wow, wolvie... good going!
thanks featherbee! :) For some reason the links are on the bottom left for me. Do Pro players see a different interface? I see a T-shirt ad on the bottom right
no, i'm just backwards
the difference between pro and not pro is the little icon, and the tile stats, which disappear after your first two weeks
ahhhh....I see
liketysplit's page is awesome
lol, yep
i don't undertstand the checkbox...
miles, do you have firefox?
that just means it's been verified?
that's to check off the words you have. if you enter them in the top box, and click add, it checks the right word

If they stare hard enough you're bound to drop something ata
Eva, the ta's are not fishy but very vowelly. ta + vowel and when you lift very heavy things you may get at her*** and the latin endinf for the ta 7/28
ta 6 : ta + vowel + good **ght! + 1st vowel. Add another vowel for the 7

I know LOL they are ever hopeful!
no problem-I would never have gotten those on my own
congrats, Eva!!! did you accidently drop something???
bravo Eva!
No, atalante's animals are trying to hypnotize her into dropping her pizza, which she is selfishly (those humans are like that) eating all ehrself

how about the 2nd in8/55 please?
add a consonent to the th4/5 just below it.
hey! I only have one th5/16...it means someth***
in8 lacking food and clothing
I have that one. Is there another one.

Sorry about disappearing minski - kids playing online games on other caused hiccup with MY game - grrr - banned them from playing
I just started about 20 minutes ago....still have 35 left, and am trying not to look at the list
Thanks minski - didn't get it yet, but I'll go to work on your clue
There are 2 in8's Yippee
it's actually the french word for the following in8
There are 2 th5/16s. One is the 2nd word in the list. That is the one I clued.
is that a th5/16 or a th 5/12...I have the 12
I'm off to do more gardening - have a good day / night everyone!
there;s a "to th*** own self be true* and a someth*** to steal minksi's clue...and that 'a all I got
There are 2 th 5/16s.
and one th 5/12
You get to garden angb??? oh I wish I could garden right now
OK, I'm confused on the th5's I have the Cat in the Hat's friends (th 1 and th 2), and to th*** own self be true. I don't see another 5/16
sorry. not getting the clues for the other in8. English French dictionaries don't have a word.
The TH5/16 you are missing is the 2nd TH4/5 with a consonent in the middle.
got the last th 5/16, at least I hope it's the last one.
in 8's = in 7/40 + 2nd vowel AND in 7/40 plus a consonant
Finally got it. Thanks Angb.
yw minski
I'm still missing 2 in words though.
in6/27 & in6/21. Help please?
Have you the first 5 letters of those long in words + middle letter of alphabet?
That is the in 6/27
in6/27 first line from romeo & juliet "Two houses, alike in ****ity"
And the in is the verb of the in 6/18
hi people
Is the te 8 a compound word?
Hi smooth
No harp - but think babies
angb, are you familiar with vicoria university in wellington?
thanks
I have just finished my masters with victoria - but I live in Auckland s0 only visited the uni once in my studies
Got them. Thanks. Those were tough.
very nice... I've always wanted to go to victoria for my masters
Why victoria particularly?
well, I'd like to do international relations, and i think it would be great to leave the US for that. Victoria looks like a great university, and in a National capitol with a small population... I think it would make things a little more accesable
I have to admit I did my masters there cause it was the shortest one in NZ
lol
Wellington is a real accessible city. Good social life - city easy to get in and out of - good public transport - but windy weather!
plus it would be a great way to get me to NZ for a year. :)
Believe though they have a good international relations department from memory
after looking at that department in particular, it looked like it was a good program
We Aucklanders avoid Wellington cause it is the capital - Auckland is the commercial centre of NZ
When you are my age smooth - you don't really want a long masters ...
I think I also like that wellington is just on the souther tip of the island... it seems it would be very easy to cross to the southern island from there, as well
*good happy Saturday all! I am slowly working toward a finish...
I think we should contribute to pappa
to pappa's boat ticket...
yeah stid! I like thgat idea! :-D
sorry. Cut my finger and the bandaid makes my mother's keyboard even stranger than normal
buy my pictures... that'll help me get to NZ... and probably lead to great pictures, as well. lol
we are baking today!
i keep typing pattern ..... phantom word
baking what?

It's become a tradition since I first made it years ago, I tweak it every year!
oh! and I put marzipan in the center of each loaf...
the cherries are an American addition, my German recipe has almonds
I know i am in the grid as the gerund ending, hehe
I put some chopped almonds in, too! my philosophy is more is better!
any hints for the e in teh upper right hand corner

usually i use dried cranberries instead of cherries, but my mother didn't have any!
arlene -- I like to live life on the ed**
The best stollen, the one Bloodaxe can send us from Dresden, has marzipan in the center

very happy to get fireworks today as I have not played all week, was missing babbling VERY much
Jean are you taking inventory of your medicine cabinet?
Did you have withdrawal symptoms, Andree?
well, we Babblers have missed you and are glad you've returned, especially in such a spectacular manner
glad you ae back Andree, misssed your icon and you
yes, it's a slow night
yahoooooooooooooooooandree
already shampooed the hamster
wtg andree
I did biltong, kept eying my laptop as though it was a drug i had to avoid
Bet not many of you have seen so mant spellings of "consonant" possibly it's the wine??
shampooed the hamster?
do you bath your hamster? Is that recommended? Never washed ours yet
we used to bathe the guinea pigs, used shampoo on them
like I said, a slow night
i'd love to go to the sydney opera house some day
he's in the microwave now
"many" even
Are you going to have hamster for dinner???
also la fenice and bayreuth
I guess we all have times where we can't spend a few hoursfeeding our addiction
actually I don't even have a hamster
the voices told me to mention it
Is that what babble does to you? Hear voices?
ya gotta be careful of the voices Jean. sometimes they lead you astray.
not to mention covent garden and la scala...altho i was at la scala for a concert
(voice of experience speaking)
you really have to ask that?

Did I miss another clue for the second th5/16? Please?
in 6.21 is the first missing one on my Lickety list, Meta...OK, help!
i have been babysitting - only 26 so far - hard stuff

relarion do you have in + te4/5?
second th5/16: add a vowel to the end of the th 4/5 just before the 5 you seek
I have that one Andree, but thanks anyway
Biltong, in Cat in the Hat there is a th*** One and a th*** Two
relarion when you mean to do something
ok, must be the first th5/16 then, I think
in6/21: in + "take care of, * * * * to, look after
Yikes, how could I have missed that, see what I mean, sluggish ;) Thx all
change the last letter for another in6/18
first one is the 4/5 following with a consonant inserted in next to last place]
first th516 is the earl's son and adds a consonant in the center of the th4 just prior to it
sorry, the 4 after, not prior to
OK: mi 6.27 (having lost all pride or in****ion to do it on my own)
"little person"
adds a consonant to the 5 before it

HOOORAYYY ARLENE!
WTG arl

i never would get any of these done wothout you kind folks
most of us are in the same boat arlene
definitely
anyone need some clues before I run away...
in8?
I'll start from bottom up, 11 to go :=) th 5.16
snoz, in 8 means having no money
'night all; I'm off to watch tv for a bit
relarion - either someth*** or the earls son
night metal
ciao meta
embarassingly, I could use a clue for the non-brainy mi 4/6
snoz - change teh last letter in relaion's clue for the other one
Bye meta
takuma - not a mi** (short) skirt but a mi**(medium length) skirt
hi & bye metalleather
ah! thanks so much arlene - I suspect I tried every *other* combo
mi 4/6: in the 60s, a longish skirt; nowadays, a music synthesizer.
late, as usual.
Thanks melon - we're not responsible for our latenesses. Here, at least
I'm mortified to admit I still don't have th 5.16
ni6 please?
sorry, I stepped away for a few mins. Which th5/16 relarion?
there are two
which one relarion?
I am also still missing the first th5/16. It has been clued several times, and I just don't get it
The 1st, guys...
yw, Takuma.
A noun is a person, place or th***
lcath - like the mi6 with a different first letter
that's the one I can't find either, relarion
No, that's the 2nd, sheesh
yes, it's the other one we are missing
the other is the earls son ....or now and th** with a consonant in the between the 3rd and 4th letters
th5 of Cawdor
Wow, who knew. Thanks folks.
ty, ty. Eventually got it, duh
nope...that ni6 is still elusive.
a clue for the ai 6/27 (not the gerund form of the 4/5)
How many left, Biltong? I have 10. I really think I've been working too hard or maybe I need a snack ;) So-o slow..
oops - I meant to put that as a request for a clue
i always find the smaller grids take longer
mi6 is little people, ni 6 is the same thi*** with a'n' instead of an 'm'
pointing towards a target Takuma, same as the other one you mentioned, 1 iff. consonant
oops...fish pls...was lookin at the wrong mi6 ***duh****
ty arlene
I have 24 relarion. And, I have just prepared a snack, lol
takuma - it's the action of taking ai* at something
oops
My husband just opened a mini-bottle of tequila...
Do you think the snack might help, relarion?
the smaller ones have the strangest words in them
Oh no, now you will never finish, lol
Holy moly, I can't believe I missed that. Thanks rel and arlene. I need to stop asking for clues ;)
yes, brb!
I'm going to go look for tomorrow's icon... back later

Yes, great, must look up meaning!!

You're a peach, Viva, and FIREWORKS!! (Was so excited I typed "fureworks" at first)
grats! now clue th5.16 for me! =) (the uncommon th5.16)
Like th 4.5, the 1st one, insert silent cons before last letter.
well done, relarion!!
Kat, ta starts with archaic words for thanks, then woody allen's ex with diff. first letter.
Hey Biltong, there you are!
I keep getting interrupted. I left to get a snack, then my son came home and chatted...
right, now for some serious hunting. 19 still to find
I'm still not seeing that th5.16 =(
th5/16 = the + abbr for example + consonant
oops, was supposed to type th, sorry!
OK VIva, how about, think of a word for "mucous" with a silent letter in it....
Only the last letter of the th is one letter in the alphabet later than the mucous last letter. And ther's no "l" in this word (talk about a convoluted clue)
FIRWORKS. VERY EXCELLENT!!!!!
well done, godthaab
yay godthaab!

Isn't impoverished word the first in 8/55 or is there another one talechaser. I need the 2nd in8/55 word.
onlt 3 to go
8/55 IN + deceased princess + polite male
it's the second on my list
think native to an area
Go talechaser go be a wordchaser and then you can help me finish!
for the second in 8/55
let me try this again.... for the other in 8/55 think native to an area
The difference between the two in8/55's is the last letter -- the first ends with the 2nd vowel, the second ends in a cons so the last half of the word is ge4
Oh, then I guess I need that first in 8/55 word then.
yay fireworks!!!!

im 5/14 anyone?
last half of the first is ge4 that relates to DNA

Hello jillibus! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
Yayyyy for Min!!! Boo for me -- I dont get the clue :(
Hello Babs1! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
I am here to clue until flip.Any guesses for tomorrow?
I have 34 words to find in 29 minutes, thanks to a glitch a while ago -- did anyone else experience it?
WTG Minv
I didn't jilli, but you have plenty of time (so says the voice fo experience)
I say tomorrow will be 183
No glitches here. So what kind of glitch did you have?
It's been such a busy time for me -- first time I couldn't finish a wee one like this!
hi min...haven't been on the board in months...just seeing if I can finish this one..
Since I finished at 11:29 game time I guess 129 words
I couldn't enter any words -- got that red message to try again 3 times -- couldn't put anything into the chat (well, couldn't see it arrive) -- probably my ISP messing up yet again
Fireworks!!!! (I finally got the clue :) )
YAY woulf!
Congratulations GreyWoulf on fireworks! Good for U!
Woulf -- the loast message I saw from you was that Seb took his first steps. My grid also announced at that time that there was less than 1 minute left -- hours ago...
Woo hoo! Done!
My hope is 47 words for tomorrow -- so busy at this season, and so behind in what I have to do!
YAY itzie!!!
Thanks for the clues everyone!
Jilli -- I have actually been pretty quiet -- I have been chatting with my mom this whole time
Woulf, what I meant was that I haven't been able to get through to Babble since then
Sebastian's walking? how's hootowl? *sending love to hootowl* hi Jill! hi all! not really here...
I understand that too, jilli -- that is rough
Congratulations itzie on your fireworks!Good for you
Hi Stid's phantasm...
Hello stidmama! How are you? Welcome to the puzzle!
Hi jilli - I lost internet connection for a while tonight - wonder if it was general
Hello flosey! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
Ah, dear old Imagen messing up again, flo
have thought of switching but forget when things are fine !
yep Stid -- he took his first steps today - real honest to goodness step - step - step - step - step towards his mom before he went boom! onto his butt -- He is a very proud boy as a result
hi all!
oh sweet, woulf -- nothing like the thrill of those first real steps!
*happy walking baby feelings* (thinking about buying stock in those companies that make baby locks for cabinets and doors)
hi fran!
hey greywoulf - it is indeed a proud moment - I remember them well
hey wolfie, isn't it cool? i remember my son's first steps. he walked out into the middle of the room at my sister-in-law's house with the whole family around and when he realized he had nothing to hold on to he just stood there and cried.
hi jilli!
especially coupled with all the climbing he has been doing -- he decided to demonstrate that he can climb over the gates today as well
LOL, Fran
i don't envy you wolfie! climbing gates already?
lol, my son flipped himself out of his crib long before he walked
btw, hootowl says hi to everyone and love back to stidmama\
yay hootowl!!!
hi hootowl!
oh my, flosey! assuming he did NOT land on his head?
Fran -- he is determined to not be denied access to anything his sister is doing! :D
Hi FranMag! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
hello dear Min -- are you having a lovely weekend?
i understand that, my daughter is doing (or trying to do) everything my son does.
But right now, I need to go for a bit -- I may be back for the flip -- but just in case {{{{***HUGS FOR ALL***}}}}
hi min! how are you today?
fortunately not Stid - but we did build it higher after that
later wolfie!
later Woulf, good to see you!
I am so glad neither of my kids were "climbers"!
it's weird, i know my son could have climbed out of his crib, but he never tried to.
I worked this morning stidmama.I came home & took a nap. I didn't sign onto the grid until about 9:00 PM.
ai 6/27?
