1:42 am

1:42 am

and i oft flip between here ond work stuff.

1:43 am

well ya think for a saturday nite id have something better to do lolol but hubby is doing a double shift and wont be home till 10.30

1:43 am

younger son is in samoa for two weeks with his grandfather

1:43 am

and oldest son hiding out in his room so noone sees his nose cast lol

1:44 am

cool, i get to send them back. They did not give business justifications, and manager did not annotate. :) My inner bureaucrat so loves this bit of the job.

1:48 am

nose cast?

1:49 am

kieran was attacked by another student at school last week and had his nose operated on on thursday to straighten it

1:49 am

oh, sorry to hear.

oh shit kiwi!! that is bad

1:50 am

oh wow groovy! what happened?

1:50 am

my mother, her 1st younger brother, and their father all have broken noses. uncle and grandpa got in fights, mama ran into an open car door at the age of 4.

1:50 am

hey kier ltns happy babbling

1:50 am

i'm glad the damage is fixable, if uncomfortable/embarassing.

1:51 am

well another student had been bullying him qutie badly the last few weeks and kieran finally blew his top and fought back this time

1:51 am

unfortunately the other kid is a student of the gloves and fought back even harder

1:52 am

im just happy we have two weeks spring break now and he can hide out at home with his cast (which needs to be on for a week) and not have to put up with being riddiculed at school

1:53 am

i didn't know you could have a nose cast. i shattered bones in my face and had a splint wired through ...

1:53 am

that is nice that he doesn't have to wear it to school. Now then, is the school going to do anything about the situation that lead to this?

1:53 am

how old is he groovy?

the school will be kissing your arse not to sue.. it is their responsibility to address bullying

1:53 am

hes 15 in dec

1:53 am

the school definately aint kissing my tooshie

1:54 am

in fact its the opposite so i have written a very harsh letter to the board of trustees (its a private school)

1:54 am

and ive also got a member of the local tv station news team on standby

1:55 am

only problem is that hubby and i arent agreeing on this = he just wants to let it blow over and i sure as heck dont

1:55 am

wohoooo half way finally lol

good on you kiwi. the police won't take it lightly

1:56 am

the police have said that unless we can prove kieran DIDNT throw the first punch then they cant do anything

1:56 am

i'm with you on this, kiwi. I think hubby has it wrong.

does the bully have a history??

1:57 am

has the school no records of the pattern of bullying/abuse?

1:57 am

oh a big one - he only got suspended for 1 day

1:57 am

Groovy - we had a bad spate of school bullying earlier this year - tv program picked it up and found first team rugby players are taking steroids causing bad aggression issues and lots of fights and injuries and even a death so our schools have had to look into the drug issues in sport

1:58 am

Hi all

1:58 am

his history is not enough to claim self defence on kieran's part?

1:58 am

good eve natasa happy babbling

1:58 am

guess not dc

1:58 am

hi, natasa

persue it kiwi... don't let those pricks get away with intimdation... they will only keep doing it

1:58 am

but im going back to see the youth aid officer on monday

1:59 am

hing is a food, but not acceptable.

1:59 am

The "hitter" is into a strength sport - they need to test him for steroids

yes ursh, absolutely!

2:00 am

Hello everyone

2:00 am

having been on medical steroids part of last year, and had some anger issues, you're absolutely right, ursh!

2:00 am

i have friends who have friends in the same boxing club and they said that they would sort him out

2:00 am

because hes using his skills outside of the ring he can be busted for it

2:01 am

well, that's something.

i hope that kiwihubby sees that your son needs support, not to turn the other cheek... it is awful to be bullied

2:02 am

its not so much that mrp he knows i have a very short fuse and thinks i need to calm down

2:03 am

Well good luck Kiwi - the investigations in SA showed clearly bullying was often sport/drug related and in all the more serious cases the "bully" was a first team, usually rugby player

2:03 am

what does your son want to happen Kiwi?

2:04 am

he doesnt know

2:04 am

he knows he wants to go back to school but it seems that the bully is out to get him again when he gets back or so his mates tell him

2:05 am

Kiwi does your son get bullied?

2:05 am

Thank god for the three letter endings.

2:06 am

yes natasa he also wants to start learning ma

2:06 am

martial arts - and ive found a good class for him that makes more emphasis on self defense

2:06 am

awww ok

2:07 am

useful skill that, kiwi, i study Bagwa and TaiQiFa for that purpose.

2:07 am

we are looking at hapkido

2:08 am

hapkido is a good form for defense. I have friends in Colorado who study that, and we have many schools for that here, too.

2:10 am

whew. halfway finally.

2:11 am

i thought youd be well ahead of me dc lol ive got 159 left

2:11 am

i'm dyslexic, so it takes me a while to get in the groove of it.

2:12 am

How old is yur son?

2:12 am

ewww look out for the little horrible 8 legged creatures in the grid - aracnophobic i am lol

2:12 am

he is nearly 15

2:12 am

ohh...poor thing...jeez i hate those bullies

2:18 am

!!!

3:08 am

ciao, mva

3:08 am

bye MVA!

3:08 am

i'm 2/3 done, and haven't greyed a letter yet.

3:10 am

I just started, so I might be forced to change my mind somewhere later, lol, but so far I love this grid. And I have time to play it, which is even better.

what the froog

I just got kicked off

3:13 am

how dare they!

I know rude. I was talking pretty tulips

3:14 am

my browser does that at home sometimes, the chat log bogs my ISP, making the browser choke.

3:14 am

no manners, those kickers.

I thought it was babble as even licketys stopped working

3:15 am

I used to have that problem, but no more with Lickety's browser. I don't even use the 2nd letter tips, but I love the smoothness of how it works... and the lickety Add feature... and of course the extra fireworks, lol.

3:15 am

it works fine here, lady

I couldnt even log into licketys or mozilla or ie7

now i have licketys open just in case

3:18 am

holy smoke! Just realised I'm more than halfway!

3:18 am

yay jilli!

GO JILL

3:18 am

loving your videos Sprite - nice selection

3:18 am

that sounds more like a local problem then, lady. Jilli! Wtg and hugs :)

3:18 am

Hello

3:18 am

I am glad, lynxxx! Thanks :)

3:18 am

hi Natasa

Hi Natasa

Its working now Sprite so meh

3:19 am

great lady

3:19 am

Hi sprite -- sad to say, I haven't had time to finish lately and won't this time either so have only seen your first funny video

franmag sent me a whole lot of videos on the day of her sister's accident for me to put up in babble fireworks next week... should I still do it??? Or should I ask someone else to do videos??

3:20 am

hi mrp

3:20 am

jilli, in a short while lickety will add the links to the list and you can see them anyway :)

3:20 am

i vote for use them, as she bothered to send them, even on that day.

Mr Pres i would do it maybe say Frans sister Tribute?

3:21 am

oh mrP... I really don't know. Maybe better to hold on to them for a while? I think my selection can bind us over for a little bit longer?

3:21 am

I'll try to do that sprite, and yes, I think you should put up fran's choices

3:21 am

how would we do frans sister tribute?

Well i mean err. Fran sent them thus i think um errr errr

3:22 am

any of you have the last ni5/12?

3:22 am

gotcha :)

I think i know what i mean

NO more Q words

3:24 am

Finally, the AC is kicking back in. It was way toasty for a bit. I shudder to think what it'll be like next month when they turn on the heat.

DC is your office Season controlled not temp controlled?

3:25 am

and they are not all funny, jilli... some are quite serious, but interesting. Yesterday's was one of my favorites, a savant autistic man telling about how he experiences numbers and other things. It is amazing.

holly crap i just saw 62 S words

3:25 am

the norm here is AC 15 Apr-15 Oct, heat rest of year

3:25 am

we're in a temporary room, 45 computers and upto as many peoplo, and twice as many flat-screen monitors

3:26 am

at night, from 22-04, ther's no HVAC at all.

bler

3:26 am

the 52 7s didn't scare you?

3:27 am

happily, i work nights, so not more than 12 of us at a time.

thats 58 of them and most will be ER or S or ING

3:27 am

not at all, dc... they are so promising! And there is this ending that helps a lot for most, lol.

3:27 am

yes, thi ING has been good for those.

3:28 am

penalty box, dc?

and it doesnt help that i am finding words quicker than i can type in

3:28 am

slow down the brain and speed up the monkeys, lady, lol

something like that

I found the Qu words

3:31 am

woot, found the real biggies

Yah Sprite

3:32 am

WTG, sprite!

50 more 7s

3:34 am

I love it when real biggies are relatively normal words :)

3:35 am

the er10 was new to all of us here at work. We'd never seen it before.

3:36 am

true, I did not know that one either. But the 9 and 11 are relatively 'normal' to me.

3:36 am

i agree.

3:36 am

i've still 2 mor 9s to go.

3:36 am

same here

3:37 am

oh, wait, only one. One is very close in meaning to the 11, lol.

fcking stupid sob i just got booted

IF i get booted again. Farewell ill be back later

3:38 am

yes, that's the 9 i have.

3:38 am

Infernal - it's not just you, I am having Babble go down too (at the same time as you)

mmmm

That was the pg version of what im thinking

3:39 am

so it's an issue in Oz only apprantly. May be a router outage over there.

3:39 am

dc: there is one 9 there that has the same form, only not again. The other 9 has a little bit the same meaning... making warm again.

Sprite is it another RE 9? as in 2 re 9s

3:40 am

yes lady

mmm k

3:40 am

one is ra9 and one is re9

3:41 am

ty, sprite, i'd not looked beyond the d.

and the third?

3:41 am

yw :)

3:41 am

no third yet here

3:41 am

re9/84 is the last

Can i have a clue for that pleasE>

3:42 am

i don't have it yet, but i have either side of it. If i get it, i'll clue.

3:43 am

I keep wanting to draw that T and that H together.

3:44 am

i keep wanting quiet, bit it's phantasmagoric today. I want requiem, too, but alas.

nearly at 100

3:45 am

lol, i only found 126 so far

I have been booted twice

3:49 am

this is really fun. If one ending does not fit, the other does, most of the time. Wonderful.

I was calling the tulips Sprite flowers today

3:50 am

wow. my last 148 words are worth almost as much as the first 220.

3:50 am

awwwww lady that is so sweet!

They reminded me of you.

There was this awesome fire coloured tulip.

3:51 am

owwww! I love those!

The visitors were really rude. There is a section of tulips below the main area that you could sit among ( if you wanted, i didnt) and people were siting on the beds in the main display area despite the big 'stick to the main path' sign.

3:52 am

some people...

3:53 am

oh, much larger display than the one here in the spring.

This is were we went

http://www.tulipfestival.com.au/

3:54 am

oh my! we've nothing of that scale. Our bitty tulip display competes with the cherry blossoms, though, so i'm not surprised that it's smaller.

3:54 am

wow, that looks like holland indeed!

3:55 am

looks exquisite.

Its very pretty. Lots and lots of people. I said to the boy they needed to create a talking plant so it barks at people ' get of the garden' My boy bought me 5 tulips too

3:56 am

re 9.84 -- add to stop (as in, it is 5PM; time to **** for the day); and the participle or gerund ending

3:56 am

LOLLLL good idea. And which tulips did you get?

3:57 am

thanks BabbleRabble, will go look. First idea did not work... not the Q word :)

um. I got me a red one, yellow one, queen of the night, a pink one and an orange one he picked them

Thanks babble

3:57 am

d'oh. i'd tried w/out the gerund, and didn't thing it'd take it with. ty, babrab

3:58 am

it is Sprite

3:58 am

wonderful, lady! Can you grow them from bulbs where you live? Or is it too hot?

3:58 am

is it? Then why doesn't it work here?

No its not too hot to grow them but it was very sweet to get flowers

3:59 am

yes, a sweet gift indeed

3:59 am

thanks for the re9, babrab -- how about the 11?

3:59 am

a spot of copper, like a penny, in the water keeps them fresh longer.

It was a lovely day outside too.

3:59 am

re + giving off warmth again, jilli

Thanks dc they are sitting in a tin glass at the moment

4:00 am

re+ ra9/72

4:00 am

Hi Jilli - giving out (heat) again

4:00 am

I am totally babbled about that first 9. It will not take here.

4:01 am

****ters never win; and winners never quit

4:01 am

that one took me a while, too sprite. making he4/5, like a steam he4/5 system.

Sprite STOP IT ing

4:01 am

thanks babrab and sprite

4:01 am

Sprite - you may be trying it with a double t? single only (its actually not ending something but more payment for something)

4:01 am

yesssss that is what I try... and it does NOT take!

4:02 am

dc, I have that one. I mean the one BabbleRabble clued first.

4:02 am

you'll get it. took me 15 min of trying.

4:02 am

no, I try it with single and it does not take

RE look at the chat box direction

4:03 am

I have the word, I just cannot get babble to except it. This is SO weird.

odd

4:03 am

it is excepting it, as it's not accepting it. :)

4:04 am

gonna reboot babble, brb

4:05 am

yup, now it takes. Total weirdness. Must have been a crooked byte.

4:05 am

how odd.

4:05 am

and I am sorry for posting the letter.

no dramas i was about to accidently put the word in the chat

4:06 am

lol, and I see BabbleRabble DID put the four letter word in the chat in his effort to help me... I thank you all :D

4:07 am

problems problems someone said life is full of problems

4:07 am

yeah... and some say it is full of solutions. Mostly painters.

4:08 am

some chemists might agree

4:08 am

i'm a musician, and also an optimist who believes in solutions, though not for everything.

im misssing 4 C words

4:08 am

LOL babrab

Time to ing and ed and s everything

4:08 am

and even some politicians, but they are lying.

4:09 am

and ier

4:09 am

politicians believe whatever is convenient at the moment

4:09 am

guys guys... what are you doing, putting all the endings in the chat!

4:09 am

too true, BabbleRabble. Too true.

4:09 am

*resists temptation to list the rest*

4:10 am

They haven't got their control pants on today, Sprite - to stop them revealing endings. Good morning/evening all.

ops sorry.

4:10 am

morning Haz

4:10 am

their control pa5, Haz... sigh. And morning

Sorry sorry sorry sorry my bad. I didnt think that was bad.

4:11 am

hi, haz

4:11 am

as many words as there are today, we're bound to use a few without thinking.

4:11 am

asdljfalj;fjka;lkjdf - will go to penalty box and there sit on my hands.

4:11 am

lol Haz... join the club :D

4:11 am

good morning afternoon evening babblers

4:11 am

hi, loredana

4:11 am

sorry about that -- thought they were pretty obvious

4:12 am

dc, it is the using them while we are thinking that astounds me!

4:12 am

hi dc s

That is funny. Oh well. I have had too much sunlight today. Hi Haz and lore

4:12 am

4:12 am

4:15 am

g'night jilli

4:15 am

4:15 am

No odd is anteaters

4:16 am

4:16 am

good call, lady.

4:16 am

i love possums

or the Platypus

4:16 am

i grew up in a semi-rural area, with school breaks on a farm.

4:17 am

I agree on the Platypus. A3eater is almost in the grid today, btw.

4:17 am

platypi are pretty.

4:17 am

i guess the kiwi is an unusal looking but i have never really given it much thought

with the males having toxic barbs

4:17 am

we eat kiwis here.

4:17 am

i'd not until i looked at your profile pix. i grew up seeing drawings of them on Kiwi brand shoe polish, but the photo is not like the drawings.

Australia the land of flora and fauna can maim your butt

4:18 am

:P sprite

4:18 am

did you have any racoons dc s?

4:18 am

Ever thought of taking up a job with the Australia Tourist Board, herinfernal?

4:18 am

they're common where i live, a carrier of rabies, and i've eaten a few in my day.

4:18 am

lore, did you see our pirate names have the same beginning?

4:18 am

oh, good call, Haz.

4:19 am

I love raccoons... as long as they are on a pic and not in my garden, lol.

4:19 am

thats a photo of a stuffed-toy kiwi isn't it Loredana ?

I love Aus we have the best things - oh look its a cute cuddly wuddly Koala till it pees on you. And no we dont have kangaroos hopping down main street and no we all dont say strewth and crickey

4:20 am

You surprise me.

4:20 am

lynxxx, what a delicate icon! Pretty :)

4:20 am

really sprite i know that i think jilli and I share the second name

4:20 am

i figerud roos are like deer, you'd find themin the burbs mostly, and in some rural areas.

4:20 am

ty Sprite

4:21 am

I am Iron Kidd Charity

4:21 am

probably lynxxx I have never seen a kiwi sitting on his posterior

Nope no roos here. Havent seen a wild one since i went bush years ago.

4:21 am

I've heard they're masters of disguise, though.

4:22 am

bit like leprechauns really

4:22 am

plenty roos in Western Australia everywhere and we have had them in our main street

4:23 am

can someone try something for me? What you get when you go to www.kidzonly.nl ?

4:23 am

Yes, they can get away with anything and blame other animals.

4:23 am

Sprite Iron Morgan Bonney here

4:23 am

I prefer leprechauns. I got a few from haz.

4:23 am

You will keep them in quarantine for a while, though, won't you, sprite?

4:23 am

Roos are no good in the house

4:24 am

didn't have to, Haz... they magicked all contaminations away.

4:24 am

FlexPhoto's and stuff about joomla installation is what i see at that site, sprite

I get welcome to Joomalo

Welcome to Joomla!

4:24 am

I got me own leprechauns all the way from Ireland he goes everywhere with me on my key ring

4:24 am

Are there no dwarf kangaroos available. You'd have thought with all the genetic engineering going on someone would have got it organised.

4:24 am

nm about the link, problem is solved. An E missing in the referral.

4:24 am

you can have wallabies Haz

4:25 am

thanks... they should have said www.kidzonely.nl and got it wrong in their own magazine, lol

4:25 am

Are they masters of disguise as well, loredana?

4:25 am

or even rats

4:25 am

i kept rats for years, they're lovely pets.

I cant have rats im not allowed

4:26 am

The cat might eat the rat.

4:26 am

i kept them in an aquarium with a mesh lid.

4:26 am

yes i believe rats are very affectionate but not for me nor ferrets

4:26 am

the cat used to sleep on their 'cage'

4:26 am

the cat in the hat might eat the rat

4:26 am

ferrets disgust me and creep me out a bit.

the cat chases dogs. Its more like the boy want let me

4:26 am

The cat in the hat on the mat might eat the rat.

4:26 am

me too dc s but i have friends that have them

4:26 am

*Wanders in and heads straight for the penalty box. Sets down picnic basket and laptop by comfy chair* *Morning all*

4:27 am

4:29 am

4:29 am

lol sprite

4:30 am

off to the grid

4:30 am

End of rat.

4:30 am

4:30 am

4:30 am

More fat cat.

4:30 am

4:30 am

well, liz, once there was a a kiwi...

4:30 am

yay hello ursh

4:30 am

Greedy cat.

4:31 am

watch out for that fox

4:31 am

Hi Ursh

4:31 am

that had to have a freebee

4:31 am

sounds good FM

4:31 am

and why has no one mention the gnat??

4:31 am

i wonder if i can find someone to do breakfast with when i get off work. So much for fasting for yom kippur.

4:31 am

Hmmm notice i still need 111 - am i supposed to lift my feet now??

4:31 am

It was an upperclass fox. It went for detox.

4:31 am

before or after they had her cooking sherry

4:32 am

Liz... penalty box with you, sigh...

4:32 am

fox barks keep me up at night sometimes - the sound of them is really creepy.

4:32 am

Penalty box for you liszark

4:32 am

Oh she drank it lore so they coun't get to it :)

4:32 am

more than cooking sherry involved here by the sounds of the chat,lol

4:32 am

Noooooooooooooooooo! Sorry! Haven't even looked at the grid yet *blush*

4:33 am

:D :D Liz... just teasing you. Just join us in the pen box and we will have strawberries and ice and chocolate and tea and anything else you want

4:33 am

back to the grid

sanitarium for you lot

4:33 am

*hangs head in shame*

4:33 am

lol Herin

4:34 am

Great grid today.

4:34 am

it is a great great grid today, Liz. So much fun :)

Hi FM you are right im zinging along

4:35 am

well its about time I had some fun! I'm off to get stuck in there!

4:35 am

guys, I am kinda certain there is a word like panini... but it will not take. Am I delusional or not?

4:35 am

It is, FMitch, though one to catch the unwary. I was caught out talking about control pa5/12. Who would have thought lingerie could prove a downfall?

4:35 am

I think it's a double n. LOL Did the elastic go?

4:35 am

most Victorian people, Haz.

4:35 am

The Italians love their paninis but maybe enable isn't cosmopolitan enough.

4:36 am

ok, thanks Haz :)

4:36 am

Haz could not control her control pa5...

4:36 am

No, elastic holding firm. I was preaching self-righteously about the need to wear control pa5/12 to avoid putting endings in the chat log.

4:36 am

so enable says we may have tacos, but not panini. wtf.

sum of itch kicked me off again

4:37 am

Oh forgot to bring coffee into the PB back in a tick.

4:38 am

Good day, everyone!!!!

4:38 am

Hello MM.

4:38 am

hello mm

4:38 am

4:39 am

4:39 am

So, anyone found any biggies? If so, clue me plz!!!!!

Hi Movie. I am not ignoring anyone im struggling with red lines of doooom

4:40 am

Red lines of dooooooom. A bank statement?

4:40 am

i only have 1 9 movie, to warm again

4:40 am

no Haz... red word could not be added lines of doom.

No the 'word can't be added' thing

4:41 am

Ah, that makes sense.

4:41 am

ra9: giving of warmth. re11: giving of warmth again. er10: is in between.

4:41 am

this time round I'm not having problems Infernal

oh well happens with large grids

4:43 am

maybe once you have more words, lynxxx ;)

i have 133 words but its hard going as im finding words too quick to enter

4:43 am

ty sprite

4:44 am

over half now and still flying

4:44 am

Sprite! thats not very nice! just cause I am way behind but then someone had to soothe the wild beast that was my husband trying to assemble new BBQ

4:45 am

so, no 8 letter words yet then?

Oh dear Lynxx did he follow the destructions?

Movie there is 17 8 letter words

4:45 am

the other 9 is re9/84, movieman. re + stop working + gerund ending

4:45 am

There are lots of them MM, you'll come across the 8s as you go through the grid.

4:45 am

Strangely enough he did Infernal

4:45 am

I apologise, lynxxx. You do great, considering the difficulties you have to overcome :)

4:46 am

lol Sprite

Thats why they are called destructions

4:46 am

lol movie... lots and lots. Better go find some on your own first, or I'll be busy clueing the next half hour or more... you want the 7s too I bet ;)

4:46 am

Bet I don't find any 8s Haz, 'cos I never do!!!!!

Movie theres lots and lots of words im finding just by adding common extra endings

4:47 am

so go surprise yourself, movie my man! You WILL find 8s on your own in this grid.

4:47 am

There is something very satisfying about the spread of grey across the tiles.

4:48 am

Yes, you will. It's only someone with a sc8 knowledge of vocabulary than you who would have difficulty.

4:48 am

I'm finding LOADS of 7s though!!!!!

4:48 am

gooooood movie!

4:48 am

not here yet, FMitch, but I am sure it will be later on :D

Yah and i managed to explain that with out adding the ending

GO moving

4:49 am

very well done indeed lady :D

Thanks Haz i got that one off that clue

4:49 am

Thanks for the clues, Sprite, but I did not get the 'er'. Is there another clue you can think of?

4:49 am

Merk, just drop the first letter from the 11.

4:50 am

Its one of those grids that the grey fill in rapidly towards the end.

4:50 am

ty

4:50 am

And as I head towards Tescos, I ponder if the mean wasp is st8 than the thrifty bee?

4:50 am

Haz you're a bit late with the tescos run today or has the late night slowed you down too?

4:51 am

I think so, Haz. It st5s more often, anyway.

4:51 am

To the shops! I am late, you're right. It's the lure of the grid.....

4:51 am

*waves at Haz* Always a pleasure to see you :)

4:51 am

bye Haz

4:52 am

Im going shopping today to spend some of my birthday money Woohoo. See you later Haz.

4:53 am

I'm struggling with the 8's......Only found 1 so far....

Merk are you going out or flying out again

4:53 am

4:53 am

Leave them till later then mm and you will find more.

4:54 am

4:55 am

wi7 and 8 compound combo. The end of birds sidewise.

4:55 am

I'll see you all later..I'm finding it hard to concentrate and with only 210 words its too early for the list

4:55 am

5:01 am

5:03 am

oh, no an8 is related, no an9

5:03 am

5:03 am

Didn't think so......

5:03 am

5:03 am

2x7 and an 8

5:04 am

one an7 not related though!

5:04 am

er7 anyone?

5:05 am

I have it , but hard to clue. Let me think.

5:06 am

er7: to *** is human, to forgive dev***. Put a consonant between these two parts.

5:06 am

ty. i almost monkey it, but didn't go far enough.

5:07 am

if I say so myself... I love my clue, lol

5:07 am

i liked, rather clever

5:08 am

a rare moment of inspiration

5:08 am

in7: not corrected publications

5:09 am

5:09 am

awwww and my de4 hairy-nosed dolphin is back at last. I am a happy girl now.

5:18 am

ty sprite

5:18 am

5:19 am

all good, juls, i do things like that a lot. :)

5:19 am

try one of the other endings dcs

5:19 am

ah, ok, nm :)

5:19 am

sprit, i lack both sc8/5%

5:19 am

oh, look the other way. duh

5:20 am

sc5/12 clothing that is more revealing than covering. gerundise for 8/55

5:20 am

oh, ok, LOL

5:20 am

ty, chris

5:21 am

The q's are proving a headache.....only have 4 so far

5:21 am

once they click, they fly by.

5:21 am

lol... an4 and sp6, creepy grid. But also the dolphin and the big blackandwhite bear.

5:22 am

QUs, but for last 2, build on the 1st.

5:22 am

extend the q4/7, movieman.

5:22 am

exactly dc, that is what I mean :D

5:23 am

lol, brian, who sits behind me sounds like he's barely awake. OTOH, he left at 11, and was back in at 4, so that's reasonable.

5:23 am

hopefully he lives nearby.

5:23 am

ouch

5:24 am

sa7 knowing... think neanderthaler and change the end.

5:27 am

sc8/50 : look over generally or make computer copy + what you get when you kick your car

5:28 am

sh6: sh + not pro. sh7: same + consonant.

5:28 am

oh wow, i don't thing i'd ever have monkeyd that sc.

5:28 am

thought so, lol, hence the clue. It took me ages to get it.

5:30 am

sprite's babble rule #4. dc: try all endings on all words :D

5:30 am

i don't thin of that as an ending, though it's common enough in latin-rooted things.

5:31 am

there are a few in this grid with that ending

5:33 am

Had to use the clues, but got all the q's now

5:33 am

well done movieman. Not all of them came easy to me.

5:33 am

no, the qs wer rather a struggle, but they came. well done.

5:33 am

BR's consummate rule: All rules are meant to be followed; unless they aren't

5:34 am

q

5:34 am

yay for English.

5:34 am

awwww I love that one. enlightened anarchism :D

5:35 am

or anarchy... not sure, lol.

5:36 am

I can't believe there's 62 words coming from that bloody s!!!!!!!

5:36 am

i've got 48 of em so far, so i'm willing to believe.

5:36 am

I clued two that might not come easy, movieman... the sh clues.

5:37 am

wb, lady

5:37 am

fireworks for me :)

got nandos i swear the woman that runs the place is evil

5:37 am

WTG Sprite! :D

5:37 am

woopee!!! Sprite well done

5:38 am

Good for you Sprite!!!!!!

Woot sprite

5:38 am

well i would not eat her food Herin

5:38 am

I may have to cheat to finish this one!!!!!!

5:38 am

cheating how?

Sadly it was that or macas or bain mari of death

5:39 am

By using the word list and the first letter clues

5:39 am

lol herin

5:39 am

as atalante told me when I was a babble rookie: only looking up the actual words is cheating. The rest is... research :)

5:40 am

shift turnover and nearly time to head home, with 92 left. catch yall later. :)

I use more words and word match. I dont class anything like that cheating. Cheating is using a program to solve this thing

5:41 am

bye dc!

bye dc

5:41 am

bye dc take care see you soon

5:42 am

i agree with lady. {poof}

5:42 am

I sometimes use a2z. Not even that easy without 2nd letter clues, but very helpful.

5:42 am

In that case, he4/5 I go then!!!!!

I dont use the list till i have about 7 - 16 left. I use more words and enter HE** and words pop up and i hunt them down

5:43 am

ok guys, I have to go. Have fun and count your blessings. I count mine and you are one of them.

Take care Sprite

5:43 am

Or I could just use my mate punster's grid for assistance!!!!!

5:43 am

be well, sprite

5:45 am

bye Princess take care hugs

5:45 am

bye sprite

so how are we all

5:50 am

was someone looking for eq8/55?

i could do with a clue

5:52 am

could i have a clue 4 the 10 and the 11 please

5:53 am

eq(the 'u' is a side dish that comes with the dinner) + Thing + unwelcome picnic guest

5:54 am

expanding Thing = what one calls a Thing

5:56 am

I know what ta means -- is there an informal reply? I've always wondered...

Shortened thank you. I think informal. Im stuffing my face at the moment

5:56 am

piner

5:59 am

good morning all. jwr, I don't get the "u"that is a side dish?

Hi Eva and Merp

6:00 am

hi herin

6:00 am

sorry, the 'piner' was a slip of the fingers. Speaking of shortening, Dear herinfernallady, do you have a shorter name? The "ta" is understood ; what I was wondering was whether there was an informal "you're welcome."

It was a shortened thank you and Herin is ok

6:01 am

Hi Eva -- too smart for me britches. All I meant was that the "u" came along with the "q" gratis.

6:02 am

ah so

Is there just 3 SH words please

4 of them herin

a 6, 2 7's and a 4

Thanks

is anyone here

8:22 am

Truffle Pie question....does anyone know what size pan is needed?

8:22 am

really big, so you can have lots of truffle pie

8:23 am

if the pan size isn't specificied in the recipe, that usually means a standard 8 inch pie pan

8:23 am

i'd imagine round, possibly deep dish if you have the volume.

Um make up the mix and then see. I was trying to think of the size in inches

8:24 am

Thanks

8:25 am

hello, hello

8:25 am

i've never made truffle pie, but i just usually use my standard Pyrex pie plate

HI RMC i was again in you neck of the words at th tulip farm

8:26 am

8:26 am

beautiful, isn't it? went last year. just gob-smacking

Yep cept stupid people were IN the patches that they were not ment to be in. I have fotos.

8:45 am

8:45 am

8:46 am

8:46 am

thanks lideola

8:46 am

sorry BR, can't make sense of it, it's not your cluing, my brain is just about fried he4/5

WTG LORI!!!

8:53 am

Congratulations Lori - you're storing up brain cells, you just don't realise it.

8:53 am

8:53 am

pi 6 -- apple blueberry pacan and favorite grid ending

YAH Lori

8:53 am

congrats, Lori

woohooo Lori, Congrats!!

8:54 am

No, it's not the he4/5 you're adding the e to, it's the ra9 that is the description of heat or light given off in this manner.

8:54 am

ohhh

8:54 am

that was a fun, but frustrating grid.

8:54 am

Sorry - it was me being careful about giving away a word in the grid. Penalty box avoidance leads to misunderstandings.

8:55 am

woohooo, got it!!! thanx BR

8:55 am

oh gosh. I've got 160 left. lucky lucky me

9:05 am

A dinosaur to climb down? At least he let you.

9:05 am

he was stone. granite actually. but still very pointy

9:06 am

A hazard, though. I'd have stayed at the top and whimpered.

9:06 am

maybe the white witch had frozen him

9:07 am

I nearly did, but there was some Mystery on the beach that needed solving

9:07 am

Unless the grid was bigger we couldn't have a word longer than 25 letters.

9:24 am

'Hi & 'bye, herin. Sleep well.

9:25 am

sorry guys and gals, my PC just went on the fritz. had to reboot in order to say goodbye properly.

9:25 am

she didn't say 62 letters, jac, she said a letter have 62 words :)

9:25 am

ok i cannot figure this ha7/32, is it very weird?

9:25 am

yeah, i meant the s has 62 words!

9:25 am

ha7/31 - in more of a rush/hurry

9:25 am

No, it's a comparative.

9:26 am

oops, 7/32!

9:26 am

more so of the ha4/5

9:26 am

*bops on head with fish* thanks

9:26 am

9:27 am

no prob hursh, just happy to be of some help :)

9:27 am

just luck hurshy

9:28 am

oh, you shouldn't say that, you should come up with some outlandish reason so we all think you're brilliant

9:28 am

when are you going to put marty back up? he's much more decorative than that man!

9:28 am

marty is up at sudoku all the time

9:28 am

and james roday is VERY decorative and yummy

9:29 am

okay, let me see, considering the clues you had asked for earlier, i deduced the only ha you could be missing was the ha7/32, how's that

9:29 am

miiiitten then

9:29 am

e

9:29 am

But can marty REALLY compete?

9:29 am

marty is the handsomest of all the things in the world

9:29 am

not with the cat of glory, certainly

9:30 am

but i am a sex-deprived woman and i like looking at james roday, so there he stays.

9:30 am

Unless he was the original, the inspiration, the muse.

9:30 am

LOL, hursh.

9:31 am

hursh - this is about the only net site where you could say that and not receive a load of suggestive e-mails after.

9:31 am

You haven't seen her e-mail inbox though.

9:31 am

lol, i suppose so - i am not on a lot of net sites. lucky we have so few men

9:32 am

True, Haz.

9:32 am

she might be saying that deliberately to garner interest!

9:32 am

She might indeed, Ata.

9:32 am

Then we'll have to keep an eye on her.

9:33 am

dont we always?

9:33 am

i'm saying it cause it's so. but, if any of the few men who babble do happen to look like james roday, they should speak up.

9:33 am

The problem is the time zone. We have to sleep sometime.

9:33 am

where'storgone when you need him?

9:33 am

*Waits for all the men to appear...*

9:34 am

I haven't a clue as to who James Roday is to start

9:34 am

but one never knows who's lurking, haz, as you found out with fmitch last night

9:34 am

<--- james roday

9:34 am

fm? lurking? never!

9:34 am

That's true. Caught about caught out....

9:34 am

and I caught her out, too!:)

9:35 am

The shame of it all.

9:35 am

Incidentally, Haz... have you checked your napper for foreign objects today? *grins*

9:35 am

y'all are so hard on haz. whereas, i was as gentle as could be.

9:35 am

what happened?

9:35 am

i used the word "quandary" and haz thought i had spelt it wrong

9:35 am

I bear up bravely. No sunglasses atop the head.

9:36 am

she asked if it was a US spelling

9:36 am

Oh yes... kwondree.

9:36 am

and i very nicely said, why, how do you spell it?

isn't it quandry?

9:36 am

That's what I thought, Esprit. It's quandary. Like boundary.

9:37 am

Yup, it has 2 a's.

9:37 am

just outrageous, haz

I'll be dipped, you're right

9:38 am

I know. I was ra9/72 blushes.

9:39 am

oh dear, we are too funny

9:39 am

Thanks for that 9, Haz.

9:39 am

I bet! next you'll think that adding an e to a 4 letter word gives a 10 letter word!

9:39 am

You're welcome, Jacula.

9:39 am

lol

9:39 am

I thought the discovery of the sunglasses was the funniest.:D

9:40 am

Ah, but she understood once I explained nicely.

9:40 am

Maybe I'm turning into Posh Spice - sunglasses ready at all times?

9:41 am

that would be sunglasses *on*. even at night

9:41 am

is she the one with david beckham?

9:41 am

Nah, Haz, you just forgot they were there. *grins* It's her age, you know.

9:41 am

thats the one

9:41 am

Hursh - yes.

9:41 am

That's the one, hurshy.

9:41 am

she's pretty

9:41 am

she's hideous

9:42 am

It's my age - it has to be that because I can't blame Fmitch.

9:42 am

pretty awful, hursh! She was okay before she became a plastic stick.

9:42 am

good morning all, am just going to dive into this grid - will have to head back to bed soon

9:42 am

Haz - don't worry. You're in good company.

9:42 am

yes, she used to be pretty

9:43 am

Hi, flosey. Good luck.

9:43 am

In the blue corner, we have Atalante. In the red corner, we have hurshy. A clean fight ladies.

9:43 am

i dunno, i only saw her when ali g interviewed her. she seemed pretty and she laughed a lot

9:43 am

well who wouldn't laugh a lot, he's a riot

9:43 am

oh ali g. she probably laughed cos she didnt understand him

9:44 am

I look at Posh Spice and I look at someone like Judi Dench - so much older but more beautiful, to my mind.

9:44 am

Right. 89 words are hiding from me and it's time I got back to the gr5/16. BBL.

9:44 am

curses on s's!

9:44 am

Or Phyllida Law, Haz.

9:44 am

TTFN

9:44 am

I agree. Or Emma Thompson.

9:44 am

h

9:45 am

or fred dalton thompson

9:45 am

Yes! She has such character and beauty in her face. She's Emma Thompson's mother so it bodes well for her.

9:45 am

its probably different over here, hurshy. you're not all fed up with her. we get her on the front page every time she takes a cr*p

9:45 am

ohhh, she's your paris hilton

9:46 am

Really? Judi Dench is Emma Thompson's mother?? I never knew that

dont even go there hurshy

9:46 am

yup, very similar. and equally annoying

9:46 am

No, Phyllida Law is Emma Thompson's mother.

9:46 am

i dunno, i don't think anyone could be as annoying as paris

9:47 am

just you wait .....!

9:47 am

No, chiley, Phyllida Law is Emma T's mum. Judi Dench is Finty Williams' mum.

9:47 am

Oh...I misunderstood

9:47 am

Really going now. *poof*

9:47 am

she never says anything but "that's hot". and she wanted to trademark the phrase!

9:47 am

Bye Jacula!

9:48 am

Victoria just pouts and wants worldwide fame for it

9:48 am

Now, now, Atalante. Don't forget her singing career.

9:48 am

oh! how could I forget!

9:48 am

And she's a great fashion icon now.

Anyone offering up clues to the sc8's, pretty pls?

9:48 am

and her books. such a great author

9:49 am

And she writes books to tell us how to dress.

9:49 am

'Girls, get yourself down to Versace, quick smart'

9:49 am

'Here's a great plastic surgeon you MUST try'

9:50 am

heres a great diet! dont eat for a year!

less covered with clothing

9:50 am

hi everyone!

tina

9:50 am

i think paris did trademark "that's hot" even sued some company for using it

hi carra

9:50 am

'When you get tired of those shoes, buy another pair. Who wants to wearthe same pair of shoes for more than 2 hours?'

9:50 am

hi nono

9:50 am

'but actually I eat fish and chips every day! I'm just so lucky to have a great body'

she tried to trademark it, but I don't think successfully

9:51 am

i don't pay much attention to paris or i would join the quote competition

9:51 am

i'm SURE she's worse.

9:51 am

This is Victoria talking, hurshy.

thx esprit - got that one without too much squinting and whining :)

9:51 am

i know

9:52 am

and i want to demonstrate how paris is wrse

:-)

paris is a waste of oxygen

9:52 am

they are both horrendous

9:52 am

. "That's Hot!" (Paris Hilton) - Hilton owns the trademark to the phrase "That's hot," which was registered on Feb. 13th.

9:53 am

So, waitresses, presenting a hot curry will have to find something else to say?

9:54 am

maybe "that's hot" is different. just de-emphasise the h

9:54 am

'This is ra9/72 he4/5. Please take care.'

9:54 am

i say "heavens to betsy!" a lot, maybe i should trademark it.

9:55 am

betsy's probably already trademarked it

9:55 am

i just don't understand how someone could give her a trademark for a phrase that other people have used before. it maketh no sense.

9:55 am

I bet Betsy got there first.

9:55 am

ha ha haz, I did send you the explosive dogs sign didn't I?

9:55 am

lookit the great minds thinking alike

9:56 am

ac 8 please

9:56 am

You did, Atalante. And yes, our minds must run on similar lines most of the time.

9:56 am

ac8/50 - if you have ac5/12 - add the singular date in March that Caesar was to beware of.

9:57 am

gah! how can i not find any more s's when i have 11 left! i am a dolt! (TM)

9:57 am

how any words today?

oh thank you Haz

<gasp> 368

I hear you. I feel completely lost today on this! 4 ltr words are eluding me (eyes rolling at myself)

9:58 am

that ac8 was my first word today :)

9:58 am

thanks haz

9:58 am

ack

9:58 am

figures.

9:58 am

You're welcome.

9:58 am

and I've put the explosive dog sign in my pic for everyone's amusement

you can say that again

9:59 am

Just to confirm that our minds do think differently, ac8 was NOT my first word today.

9:59 am

cant concentrate with all this banging..... since 730am... its 11 now lol

9:59 am

they are putting new siding on the house

9:59 am

wow, carra. tantric banging?

Eek, carra - how can you stand it?

10:00 am

Ear plugs are great things.

10:01 am

no idea.. but its started to bother me a bit now.. i might go for a walk or something

10:01 am

this GRID started to bother me

10:01 am

starting

10:01 am

lol

Agreed haz - gotta nice pair of them myself (husband snores like an outboard motor)

10:02 am

I hear you....

10:02 am

oooh continuing snoring saga - husband has now been referred for sleep studies. he now thinks its important to sort out as I persuaded him he might have sleep apnoea

10:03 am

He may end up with one of those machines, in that case.

Oh, I hope they find some way to help him (and you) out, Atalante. Know lots of folks that have benefitted, including the CPAP machine haz mentions

10:04 am

maybe ... we'll see. they have sleep testing machines here that people can bring home and do the studies there, for a few nights. much easier than going to hospital for sleep studies

10:04 am

one more word and i can get the list

10:04 am

though I got very annoyed with the dr when he said that "social snoring" isn't an issue. to me, its certainly an issue, if not a medical one!

what's your criteria for that, hurshy?

10:04 am

d

10:05 am

doctors have this weird thing where they don't seem to think that sleep is very important. i had a hard time getting sympathy for my sleep troubles.

social snoring not an issue?! puh-lease.

10:05 am

they always tell you sleep is important, but never actually help you when you can't sleep

10:05 am

oh, it varies tina, today i want to get to 50 left.

10:05 am

He probably means that it's a problem for you. It'll only be tackled if they think that it's a problem for him in not getting enough sleep.

10:06 am

yeah, I know. it was irritating though, it felt very dismissive!

oh, man. I'm fixin to give up and get the lists now and I've got over a hundred left :)

10:06 am

there tis!

You are mighty

10:07 am

i wouldn't get it now if it weren't that i have to go to my sister's baby shower in not very long.

10:07 am

No, you'd rather torture your brain for hours!

10:08 am

I torture my brain for hours WITH the list.

10:08 am

indeed. i love brainal torture

10:08 am

A spaniel is giving me a look.

10:09 am

A look of doleful sorrow.

10:09 am

Odd Haz - I have a spaniel here who is giving me the "its after 5pm - when

10:09 am

what sort of look? A "you hate me cos you havent walked me for months" look?

10:09 am

10:09 am

ah. one of *those*

Good morning, a great grid for a Saturday. Need a clue for ca7/36 the first one?

10:09 am

A look that means I'm going to have to take her for a walk.

10:09 am

any clues for the 11?

10:10 am

my spanielhas already chased many pheasants today and is happily snoring on the sofa

10:10 am

How does one dog get so much reproach in one look?

10:10 am

they are masters at it

10:10 am

I'm going to have to leave my 55 words and feed the poor starving pooch - also staring at me from the sofa

10:11 am

so what are we against today?

10:11 am

Okay, I'll have to go. I'll be back later, mind refreshed, hair tossed and dog happy. Bye for now.

10:11 am

lol have a lovely walk!

10:11 am

Hi hurshy - you must have missed the cat in the hat on the mat eating a rat

10:11 am

the 6/24 is what you would be doing if you were one of those pests

Let me have a look.

10:40 am

typus interruptus

10:41 am

help. I finished the grid, yet it says I am missing 53 words. I have refreshed twice and logged off and on once. What else can I do

10:41 am

She's not too bad that way, she's gone out to the garden to hide under bushes.

10:42 am

And I'm saying this from the penalty box. pa5/12 in all their forms have been my undoing today.

10:42 am

try moving words from list to babble or vise-versa inge

10:42 am

awwww! lucky you, hobbit's very bad at physically demanding attention like that. she shoves her head through the crook of my arm and wiggles till i'm completely disrupted

10:43 am

And looks cute doing it.

10:43 am

utterly. thats half the problem!

10:45 am

That's probably why they get away with so much. What am I saying, probably??

10:45 am

i'll probably need a fish but need help with the de5/16 my last word

mgz, you have the ra9? add an e to the beginning

11:44 am

errend

11:44 am

11:45 am

heat or light going out

Thanks all finally got it and now I feel so dumb.

11:46 am

ra9 - the bride was ra9 happiness

11:46 am

don't feel dumb, marc.. we've all missed words and not gotten clues sometime

11:46 am

and those of us who haven't haven't been playing long enough

11:46 am

or are insanely brilliant and who wants to be like that??

Okay, racked my poor pea brain over the first di - clue me in, pls?

11:48 am

the first one is what plants do when they are very very sick (spelled weirdly)

i wasbooted! i think so, enough to open a charge to get an extra $40 off

11:48 am

thanks, got those now

11:48 am

brilliant here, and it makes no difference - i don't finish grids and don't understand clues :)

11:48 am

(no, the first one that I have, tina... i am not in the list yet)

11:48 am

well then you're no more brilliant than we are, and perhaps a little less??? so not insanely brilliant, the way i mean

th espeicals go off at 1, but they stay in the computer longer

11:49 am

well lthen go for it owl, obviouslly you do want it

11:49 am

di6 - I'm di6 to finally see the end of this grid

LOL let's get this straight: it's KOHL;s and 45 minutes and i don't speak spanish so they are specials not especials

11:50 am

hahahaha

11:50 am

and ri** is in the grid, too oowl

scrumptious, ty flosey

OH IT IS A SIGN!!!!!

11:51 am

yw tina

11:51 am

absolutely

WHAT MORE OF A SIGN COULD A WOMMAN WANT! (if i said what more could a woman want, i'd say bigger diamonds and a blue box D

Trying not to resort to the lists. Must. resist. the. list.

11:53 am

i can send you the blue box, owl, but not the bigger diamonds

11:53 am

tina, how can you not use the list with this many words????

11:53 am

i just can't go to it until i have half the words, and i just started.. have a long way to go

Sigh, I know. I guess I do actually feel pretty good about getting to this point - 82 left!

equ6, please?

11:55 am

horselike

got it thanks

11:56 am

I've got 187 left

How 'bout the eq8?

11:56 am

same first four letters, + the sun ***s your skin + consonant

11:57 am

I've gotten this far without the list, but I'm not sure I have much more in me without.

11:57 am

if that makes any sense!

11:57 am

course it makes sense

actually, i'm right there with you dandylon - made perfect sense to me :)

thinkin on your clue dorens, thx

11:58 am

lol

11:58 am

if it doesn't work, let me know tina

11:59 am

do you speak french tina?

11:59 am

first four horsey letters + aunt in french is ****e

oooh you really have something from a blue box? i'm not that material, really...it's just that i have so much love in my heart and no one to lavish it on at present....and diamonds are foreever

vaguely remember high school French :) I'll think about it for few more minutes then beg for another clue if I can't crack it

12:01 pm

Hi all. Made the mistake of starting before looking at the number of words in the grid today. Please tell me it's an easy grid! (only have 359 left to find! :D

hey nef, lots of gerunds

12:01 pm

the first 133 were easy enough nef, and i'm not stopping yet

12:02 pm

Thanks; that's encouraging --I think!

12:02 pm

hate to ask for 5's but I can't find ad5, clue please?

12:02 pm

i haven't any a's yet

12:02 pm

flosey - plural of the ad4/5

i have a plural

12:03 pm

oh my - hangs head !! tried everything but

12:03 pm

we have fish for you flosey

12:04 pm

with this many words in the grid, there must be a fish word in it, too

one pollock coming up!

12:04 pm

smack me with it

12:04 pm

flosey it because the 4 goes left and the 5 goes right - i also did not see it

12:04 pm

that was embarrassing

12:04 pm

thanks for the help though!

yes here is a hint for nef: you will see that often today, the words repeat onthe bottom and can plural there but not on top

12:05 pm

(neither did I)

12:05 pm

can never be embarrassed on babble

YES ! the hairy dolphin is back. i have missed it

12:05 pm

thanks ursh

12:05 pm

that's the truth, ursh

12:05 pm

it is my only i word, owl

12:06 pm

12:09 pm

12:09 pm

i think so - see you later!

12:11 pm

i knew there had to be SOMETHING good about dialup

12:14 pm

good point . i dohave his. allegedly. : )

12:16 pm

i am closing in on the halfway point. at which i will take a break (and go to the list)

12:22 pm

12:22 pm

dint

12:22 pm

dent

12:22 pm

OOps! SORRY!

12:23 pm

ah come on, nef... words i DON'T have, please

12:23 pm

(I'll behave and go back in my cave for now)

I am so glad I'm not the only person who has done that :)

12:27 pm

I'm afraid I do it more often than not if I try to chat AND add words to the grid. <blush>

12:27 pm

Either no one is watching today or they are being tolerant of me! :)

tolerant ( :

12:32 pm

Thanks, gramma. I've put in 100 words in 1/2 hour (including the ones in chat) so it helps if people are tolerant today. I need all the help I can get some days! :D

12:34 pm

back again - we all need to be tolerant today Nef

12:34 pm

need to be tolerant - period!

12:35 pm

3:20 pm

Liz - no can do; it's a box. :D

3:21 pm

3:21 pm

mel - take the pastry dish and add a three letter ending to it and ignore the definitions!

3:21 pm

3:22 pm

3:27 pm

3:28 pm

Although, if you carry on with that stamping, the naughty step will be your next destination.

aw good night, liz! se you tomorrow!

3:28 pm

Hi, Haz. Where did you spring from?

3:28 pm

Really am going this time :) Have fun all *waves*

3:28 pm

shame on me Haz will ask Toyah to slap me again

3:28 pm

bye *poof*

3:28 pm

I bounded in, Jacula, like some old-fashioned heroine.

3:29 pm

I'm just looking in to say hello. And have a read back in the chat log archive, of course.

3:29 pm

did haz say she has heroin abound?

3:29 pm

LOL, Haz. Loins girded, I hope?

3:30 pm

I'm sharing the Thornton's choc/fudge bar. It's in my icon.

3:30 pm

No, I said I'm a cricket heroine and I hit a boundary.

anyone got the ha5/12 before the word that comes after per**** plz?

3:30 pm

pi 7/40 please

3:30 pm

I take it the bar is delicious?

3:30 pm

Just up after a rough nite. The grid has become the 2nd most vital activity after waking. Are you over pi6/27 Mel? If not, try the medicine that would have cured Camille, without the terminal vowel.

3:30 pm

Yum, yes, Haz.

3:31 pm

I do love Thorntons - their toffee is great as well, though it has to be rationed for the sake of dentistry bills.

3:31 pm

only pi I have left is the 7

3:32 pm

sorry, not seeing clearly. It was a qu6/27, not pi. I are not squared yet.

3:34 pm

pi7 - some people are ambitious enough to try to make things small enough to fit on top of one of these.

3:34 pm

Haz - I had to give up eating toffee years ago for that very reason. I used to love black treacle toffee. I hated 'Bluebird' toffee, even though I don't (or didn't; the factory's closed down now) live far from the factory. Mind you, I am also near to Cadbury's.:))

3:35 pm

Thanks for that pi, Haz.

3:35 pm

Yes, I can agree with you on the treacle toffee. And you're welcome to the pi7.

did anyone see my request for a clue to the ha5/12 plz?

3:35 pm

thank you haz

nut are you writing your script for next time?

3:36 pm

Just finished all the QU words who was looking for clues?

3:36 pm

ha5/12 - puts a plural ending on the preceding ha4/5

3:36 pm

jwr - Hello again. Don't worry about earlier - we all accidentally type words in and, as a newbie, you're just learning the ropes anyway.

3:36 pm

script? i don't script really

3:36 pm

plural the ha 4/5 Sandie

3:37 pm

Is that a subtle hint, TO?

now how could I not see that? TY.

3:37 pm

she's scared i'll air her dirty laundry haz.

3:37 pm

hi all

3:37 pm

ra 6/21 please

3:37 pm

OoooH! What dirty laundry is that, then??

haz, i am afraid sublety is lost on our dear media mogul ; )

3:38 pm

I missed it too Sandie

3:38 pm

Thanks Jac, I think I'd better go back to bed ... if I didn't just see one more . . . just one leeetle one ....

and i did wash today i'll have you know

3:38 pm

Greetings, Alien.

3:38 pm

i can't say jac, she was drunk, and i promised not to air it...she's scared i might not be a woman of my word.

ooh jwr HOW long have you been playing?

3:39 pm

Oh, no... did she cough or sneeze and forget to cross her legs? No. Don't tell me, nut. LOL

3:39 pm

93word tonight! good night folks

3:39 pm

course, that don't mean i can't make her squirm...

i think i'm switching over to sudoku

3:40 pm

Back from the phone. Subtlety no use, TO?

3:40 pm

Goodnight, bill.

3:40 pm

Hi, all

3:40 pm

G'night, bill

3:40 pm

LOL, TO. ((hugs))

3:40 pm

hey there majellen

haz: what do you THINK?

hi jell

3:40 pm

Hello, Jellen.

3:40 pm

Hello Jell, how are you today?

3:41 pm

Let's see, Temp -- Started five or six days ago and anything else is a blur ...

3:41 pm

Should that be a question put to Dr Nut? Should babblecast be scripted?

3:41 pm

nini Bill =)

3:41 pm

RA 6/21 please

3:41 pm

i accept all questions

bye bill

3:41 pm

Tee, hee - another one bites the dust... oops, Babble's done it again.

3:41 pm

Should be reading for class tomorrow, but here I am. ;-)

3:42 pm

3:42 pm

lmao TO

3:42 pm

also lmao, TO

3:43 pm

this is cute - - - http://tinyurl.com/4afuw

3:43 pm

arggh just made it to the RE words, shall I pour myself a drink now?

3:43 pm

It's strange how babble affects some people and not others. Dr Nut - could some people have been vaccinated against it? How did we miss out on the vaccination programme?

3:43 pm

Good id4, Mel.

at least dr. god could put up a banner - abondon all hope ye who enter he5/5

3:43 pm

gawd, now you'll want me to sign over all my worldly goods and tell me when I can go potty. What am I talking about -- I'm already going potty(:

3:43 pm

TO!

3:43 pm

It depends on the drink, mel.

3:44 pm

Finonn played her last night, but I already had plans. =(

SHOES!

3:44 pm

duly noted for the next cast haz

3:44 pm

Aha, am I right in deducing that jwr is English?

i am going to see chris smither - i think.

3:44 pm

I am thinking a good shot of Scotch is what this grid needs!

3:44 pm

Haz - perhaps your hubby could set up a clinic for we not quite humans (Babbleonians) and vaccinate us?

never mind the grid, hand over that fifth

3:44 pm

I look forward to hearing your (un)scripted answer, Dr Nut.

3:45 pm

rofl TO

3:45 pm

Haz - with words like gawd and going potty, I'd say it's a safe bet jwr is English.

3:45 pm

Jacula - have you SEEN the size of the needles he works with?

3:45 pm

we had a concert festival thing a couple of weekends ago.. got me pretty concerted-out. over 130 bands!

3:45 pm

ooops still need the RA 6/21 please, I get a reprieve before the dreaded RE words

3:45 pm

I thought so - the potty clinched it for me. And dear knows what you'll come back with now.....

cool! imagine 10 days of that!

3:46 pm

ra6/21 - not quite shining as brightly as ra7/32

3:46 pm

is that what the festival you're planning is?

yep

3:46 pm

Haz - he must have some teensy weensy needles for hamster etc. It can't be all horse syringes, surely?

3:47 pm

wow. sooooo much

3:47 pm

phantom - panties

3:47 pm

Well, you're probably right, Jacula, though he injects more heifers than hamsters.

are you saying you are not using underwear? and it's not really a phantom dear

3:47 pm

EEK! Just realised Haz asked me if I've seen the size of her hubby's needle. *Off to get a coffee!*

3:48 pm

thank you Haz

ROFLMAO

3:48 pm

Just sp4 my wi4 out reading Haz's last post before mine in conjunction with my last one.

3:49 pm

3:49 pm

3:50 pm

You... evil Babbler, you... nut! *grins*

3:50 pm

off to bowling, yes, then a BIG party

3:51 pm

Nut.....evil..... can this be true?

occasion?

3:51 pm

ok, i'm ready to finish my p's and s's!

3:51 pm

What's the party in aid of, Nut?

3:51 pm

in5/12 - describing a type of music, structured the same as the home of Madras and Calcutta.

3:51 pm

Haz - Oh, yes. It can be true.

yoou willl ahve to mind yourQ's also today, hursh

3:52 pm

in aid of fun jac

3:52 pm

Not your p's and q's then, Hursh?:)

3:52 pm

i already minded them (with haz's help)

Ty for that Haz.

3:52 pm

in4/4 - add two more vowels for a dolphin babblet (I think)

3:52 pm

in 5/12 alt spelling of the car race in*** 500

3:52 pm

So, nut. You'll be wrecked tomorrow, I guess?

3:52 pm

Yes, I redeemed myself today by inspring hurshy with q.

3:53 pm

inspiring... not like my spelling.

3:53 pm

When you get home from that party, nut... record yourself saying that list of words I sent you. *grins*

any ideas for that 2nd to last in4/4?

3:53 pm

re 5/14 please the first one

3:53 pm

ooh is there going to be a podcast with nut reading babblets? that should be amusing.

Okay, keep having to step away to handle child-related craziness. :) But I see now that I have only 20 lefts!

3:53 pm

Haz - I prefer an inspring to and outspring in my mattress any day!

Oh ty - finished the i words now.

3:53 pm

Gotcha Jac! An unregenerate anglophile perhaps. Fell in love with the words -- still the world's greatest children's books -- and the daring concepts of alternate spellings and men riding around in trucks (excuse me, lorries) looking for telly-tax-avoiding antennae. Never got to GB; didn't want to spoil the Dream.

3:53 pm

IN+3rd vowel +1st vowel

3:54 pm

There should be room made in gymnastics for the inspring and outspring discipline, I think you're right, Jacula.

3:55 pm

Ah! So jwr is NOT English but an Anglophile. Bet you read Enid Blyton?

I still have in7,32 - clue available for the second one of those (I could swear I asked about this one hours ago)

3:56 pm

Now diving into grid to seek last 56 words. S-P-L-A-S-H-!

3:56 pm

But if you read Enid Blyton, where are all your exclamation marks? She loved them!

that which cannot be redacted, in latin?

3:56 pm

pi7 please?

3:56 pm

Finally got past the half way point........186 words down, 182 left... quite a long one today....

that is, Is there a clue available for in7,32 #2?

3:56 pm

Oh!! She did, Haz!!! Spiffing!!!!

3:56 pm

in7/32 - the second one is - in, four letters for what a man does to make a newspaper fit for reading, wrap it up with a vowel.

3:57 pm

pi7 - a compound word, so small that some people try to make things to put on top.

3:57 pm

pi7 - top of a dressmaking tool.

3:57 pm

pi 7: compound word: attach + above your neck

3:57 pm

lol, now i feel like a pi7

3:57 pm

I knew I was leaving childhood behind when I started to be critical of Enid's exclamations.

ok i am fading later all

3:58 pm

pillock's not in the grid, Hursh. LOL

3:58 pm

RE 5/14 please the first one

ty haz - I'm thinkin

I love it when I come in and there is a clue waiting right there that I need, so now I don't have to ask for it!

3:58 pm

Haz - ditto. But I still like Castle of Adventure.

3:58 pm

re5/14 - put candle in the wax one more time.

3:58 pm

what is a pillock?

3:59 pm

Shall I answer Hursh or will you, Haz?

3:59 pm

oops I need the next re 5/14 please

3:59 pm

You go, Jacula.

person who is not very bright is a pillock

4:00 pm

Clue for the first ca7/36, anyone?

4:00 pm

re5/14 - sounding like precipitation, describes a monarch's function.

4:00 pm

well then that's just the same as the pi7 that IS in the grid. i can be either.

ca7/36 something kitty plays with

plural

4:00 pm

ca7/36 - a tin in England, finish with what's put in a fender after a crash.

got it, thx haz

4:01 pm

You're welcome, Tina.

4:01 pm

thank you Haz

4:01 pm

4:02 pm

Thanks, Jean. I'd just gone off to refill my glass and Paul's.

4:02 pm

Thanks, Haz

4:02 pm

Become more mentally competent, hurshy

4:02 pm

(That was re the pillock answer, btw, Jean.)

4:02 pm

No torture would make me confess to Blyton, tho a handful of grid clues perhaps... What I will admit to is -- way way back -- three years working in interior villages of what was then called Mysore; only other English speakers were ozzie missionaries who had been isolated there 4 3 generations & spoke only strine-biblical. Bye, luvs. Back in a couple of hours. Gotta go plant a window box.

haz, a nickname for your doggie is in here

4:02 pm

re 9/84 please

4:03 pm

With a gerund ending - I should have said. It wasn't meaning you're crazy, hurshy!

4:03 pm

i'm trying i'm trying

4:03 pm

4:03 pm

LOl Jac, Bye Jwr have a nice evning/day

and how about that last sa7?

4:04 pm

ta7/36 - with a greater taste, heading towards a place in Africa.

4:04 pm

Bye, jwr

4:04 pm

Okay. Enough hilarity. It's time I found some words...

4:04 pm

re 9- related to unre****** (not returned) love

4:04 pm

sa7/32 - think of the latin term for man - homo ******. Use a different consonant on the ending.

4:05 pm

thank you and then is the first sc8 a compound?

4:05 pm

thank you Grant

nope

4:05 pm

clue please then?

4:05 pm

sc8 - only in the sense that there are two different words. It's what might happen when the man looks at his damaged fender.

4:05 pm

ty

4:06 pm

Get off me, you guys. I have to grid just one more and go. Really. (uh, dunny?)

4:06 pm

sh6 and 7/36?

4:06 pm

Nice clue, Haz. Thanks! And I was even looking for s words. I'm in the h's.

4:06 pm

sh6 - a variant spelling of a type of thrown together, roughlybuilt town.

4:06 pm

Sha 6 sounds like tarpaper house

4:06 pm

and i was WANTING that so bad! thanks haz

4:06 pm

jwr - if you were with Aussies you should know what the dunny is.

4:06 pm

sh7/36 - puts a consonant on the end of the sh6. One that begins my name.

4:06 pm

sh6/21? Peace in India, Brother

4:07 pm

You're welcome, Jacula!

4:07 pm

sa 6/24 please

4:07 pm

sa6/24 - use the mental competency beginning and the gerund ending.

4:08 pm

4:08 pm

4:11 pm

cybernan - make the ending like the beginning of the downy duck by introducing another vowel to the ti5/12

4:12 pm

ty haz

4:12 pm

Guessed dunny -- the Aussies (is that more acceptable than Ozzies?) were, unhistorically speaking, highly puritanical, sci fi-ishly world-forgeting by the world forgot; wouldn't have used ANY euphemism for bodily functions. I'm so gone. Right NOW !!!!! (soBlightonly there!)

4:12 pm

You're welcome.

4:49 pm

ti5/10 - add sunburn to get a giant

4:50 pm

ti = sun dos this to you

4:50 pm

Principal won't let students have cars there, on or off site.

4:51 pm

Apparently, she (principal) sends people out to check for unauthorised vehicles and then disciplines students who transgress.

4:51 pm

That's good - first year can be a bit of a learning curve..... I'm surprised the principal can have so much personal authority. They wouldn't have stood for it in the 60's.

4:51 pm

an 5/10 and 7/36, the first 2 please

4:51 pm

Fireworks going off outside. Wonder who's birthday it is?

and an7 is more mad

congrats dorens - I'm stuck

4:52 pm

want a clue tina?

4:52 pm

Jacula - the fireworks have obviously affected your grammar! You've been frightened in to bestowal of redundant apostrophes and all sorts!!

4:52 pm

Haz - she's in a student flat with 4 others... 3 girls and one poor, unfortunate lad. (Well, he will be when all the girls synchronise their monthlies and are PMTish all at once).

Clue pls for re9/72

4:53 pm

EEK! Whose, I meant. LOL

4:53 pm

Did she know any of the others to begin with? Similar thing happened with daughter number 2 - living with strangers was 'challenging'.

4:53 pm

btw if babbler appears, I wanted to suggest Harvest Moon as the theme for Sept. 26

4:56 pm

au 6/30 and 8/60 please

4:56 pm

It can be kind of hit and miss. She's living still with two of the original girls, others have fallen by the wayside as relationships have developed over time.

4:56 pm

au6/30 -combine a German car with the gerund ending

4:56 pm

au8/60 is the act of doing an au5/14 (check)

4:57 pm

all au's have the same third letter... the 6/30 ends in gerund

4:57 pm

the au8 is plural of au7

4:57 pm

to go over someones finances

4:57 pm

wi 6/30 please

4:57 pm

more like the grapy liquor mel

4:57 pm

Haz - she's hit it off with 2 of the girls and the lad, but is still dubious about 'the blonde, chavvy one' and 'the other blonde who could go chavvty or might not'.

4:58 pm

thnaks you

4:58 pm

wi5/18 please?

4:58 pm

canier

4:58 pm

Well, at least she's got some allies then. It would be awful if they were stuck with each other with no common ground.

4:58 pm

sorry

4:59 pm

wi + sun-kissed look.

4:59 pm

thanks Jacula

4:59 pm

wi 6/30 please

4:59 pm

I think she'll be okay, Haz. Unless she gets chucked out for daring to have a car.

5:00 pm

And how are you coping without her?

5:00 pm

She's a year older than the rest of them, being 20 and a half.

5:00 pm

5:02 pm

ha 7/40 anybody

5:03 pm

Me - Well, I admit I wept buckets in an empty house after my son and ex-bro-in-law and her b'f drove her off lastSunday. A van for son and ex-bro and her and b'f in the mini (ppacked to the gills). So far though, she's kept in touch and been home often (it's only a 35-40 min drive). I realise, however, that's it's probably the b'f (who's at Uni in Birmingham) who's keeping her coming home.

5:03 pm

which one ruru?

Oops, wrote thank you and forgot to hit enter! I've got 2 left now.

5:03 pm

the first one

5:03 pm

they both end with a common 3 letter ending of a 4 letter word before them

5:03 pm

that's ok... i'm just staying on till you finish... more clues?

5:04 pm

Ah well, she's close enough to home for you to see her fairly often. My worst time was driving away from Edinburgh - both of us in tears but knowing it had to be done.

5:04 pm

could I please get a clue for the wi 6/30?

5:04 pm

5:04 pm

Haz - had a bit of a revelation with my own Mum this last week when I told her how I felt about Mel leaving home for uni. 'Yes,' she told me. 'I felt like that when you got married. Why do you think I almost drove you made with phonecalls?'

5:05 pm

Back now, just been priming stepdaughte to listen for garden noises in night, since she, like my son sleeps at back of the house. Why? Someone or something, and we don't think our surviving delinquent cat could have achieved the feat, managed to uproot water hoses and most of the parts of our waterfall in the garden last night.

5:51 pm

oh Jacula, that is terrible

5:51 pm

I hope you catch who or whatever is doing that jac

5:51 pm

Pots were knocked over, too, and one plant flattened.

5:52 pm

do u have woodchucks there

5:52 pm

they have been know to pick large heavy pieces

5:52 pm

oh Jacula, how awful,

5:53 pm

dox- we've been thinking about getting s security cam for front garden for some time now... but I always said one trained on the back garden would be more interesting re wildlife visitors.

5:53 pm

angelina are u still here

5:53 pm

racoons?

yes

5:53 pm

hows it going

5:54 pm

i cant read the clues, lol

at 285

5:54 pm

I know we get foxes in the garden. Ther are badgers around, but a badger woud hhave dug the whole thing up. It's a person or a fox, we reckon.

5:54 pm

such a cluts

5:54 pm

I still don't get the in 7/32 clue the second one

did you click on lickety at the bottom?

5:54 pm

No raccoons in UK, jes.

5:54 pm

Hi again. Taking a reading break.

5:54 pm

5:56 pm

5:56 pm

I'd query that remark, jess, re squirrels an raccoons.

5:57 pm

A red squirrel, which, sadly, we no longer see he4 (only up in Scotland and a few other places) is a handsome fella. The grey is just a thug.

5:57 pm

Ruru, someone prepares a magazine is an ****or

5:57 pm

red squirrels are lovely

5:58 pm

never saw as red squirrel

5:58 pm

ok that helps I got it thank you very much

5:58 pm

Yes, Ata. Not at all like those grey invaders.

5:58 pm

squirrels are cute, not handsome.

5:58 pm

9 left all RE words

5:58 pm

chipmunks are adorable :)

5:58 pm

Oh heck, peri!

5:58 pm

jac, can reds and greys interbreed? do you know?

5:59 pm

Chippmunks stink when kept in capitivity.

5:59 pm

wonder if we have them in the US

5:59 pm

go peri.

5:59 pm

Not as much as ferrets stink, but they do stink.

5:59 pm

and squirrels bite like crazy. but i don't keep either as pets, i just watch them outside.

6:00 pm

Ata - Yes, I know. That's why some of the greys are ginger.

6:01 pm

saw one the other day - perfect grey, but with a white underneath. think that must have been a hybrid

6:02 pm

25 to go, taking another break

6:02 pm

Ata - yes... I meant. Occasionally (Barry White music he4) a man squirrel meets up with a lady squirrel... one is grey. One is red. But that doesn't matter. Love is all around! They get lost in love... LOL And then the ginger thugs emerge.

6:03 pm

hurry back Flosey

6:03 pm

this grid is wearing on me. I just got back from caring for my neighbors 5 month old baby

6:03 pm

awwww the romance!

6:03 pm

Yes, lol, Ata. Glad you got it.

6:04 pm

this hybrid one was v strange though. not ginger at all. just grey, but with white underneath parts

6:05 pm

That's what family therapy was designed for, Ata. The unfortunate consequences of the meetings of the greys and the reds. LOL

6:05 pm

re: squirrles; we have some black squirrels here and a couple of albinos. I've never seen black squirres before; has anyone else?

6:05 pm

Ata - could wel be an interbreeding.

6:05 pm

france has dark brown ones

6:05 pm

yes, the farther north you go, the more common they get, nef. quite a few in canada

6:06 pm

Nef - I haven't, not he4 in UK, no. Mind you, we do have wild rabbits he4 that are black.

6:06 pm

6:07 pm

re9 - re heat + ending

6:07 pm

Yes I have seen black squirrels

6:07 pm

6:09 pm

black squirrels in massachusetts

6:09 pm

reheating

6:09 pm

reheat

6:09 pm

Nef - I think it's the result of black, domestic rabbits being released and raped in the wild. I say that because domestic rabbits, generallly do not survive when released into the wild by fed-up but not very rabbit savvy owners.

6:09 pm

that would be it Nef

6:09 pm

6:22 pm

Nan - No. As I said, she visits about every other weekend. But, as I warned her Dad would happen, she's not that frquent now... places to go , people to see. I did warn him what having a teenaged daughter would entail.

6:22 pm

it's amazing how well paid he is; but the hours can be gruesome with the "christmas rush season" kicks in (it started the end of last month!)

6:22 pm

I hope you do Ruru

6:57 pm

Bye, Mom

6:57 pm

bye bye Jellen

6:57 pm

No HRT for me, black ko can cause liver damage, not tried red clover yet, soya isoflavines do cr*p all, and sage oil, so my Mum , who is in her 70s and still having hot flushes and night sweats, tells me 'repeats on you'.

6:58 pm

Her friend, who is in her 80s, says same.

7:00 pm

However, P's Mum opted for HRT and was symptom-free for the 12 years she took it.Then new, young doctor breezed in, said, 'Youv'e been on that for far too long. No more for you!' And then the same symptoms blazed in. Better to brazen it out and get rid, I think, in the early years.

7:00 pm

guess we just live with it

7:02 pm

Tim - a flannel rinsed and wr5/22ed out inn cold water and folded to fit your brow is the mst effective thing for night sweats. Combine that with throwing the covers off, lying on your back etc.

7:03 pm

If there is a hopeful or predatory male around when yu are in that position... well, say whatever... it'll be an hour till your next hot flush.

7:04 pm

lol

7:04 pm

ca 7/40, either?

7:04 pm

There you go the, tim. Back to my 'h' words...

7:04 pm

i found one thing that helps a bit

7:05 pm

i shower before bed and wear baby powder

7:06 pm

Baby powder doesn't smel sexy though, Tim. But, yes, you're right.

7:07 pm

I'll stick with my cold flannel and smelling of woman (like Hilda said to Stan in Coronation Street).

7:07 pm

well they have perfumed talc

7:08 pm

i have lily of the valley

7:09 pm

then again, he's a nutjob, and she's very bold.

7:32 pm

Kitties have star signs, just like homo sapiens does, jess.

7:32 pm

i find more corelation between color/breed and personality in cats than i do with birth date, i think.

7:33 pm

Some are fiery, some are more cautious and some, if they are Libra, can't make their blinking minds up!

7:34 pm

back for last 25 words - hopefully

7:34 pm

Hi Herin

7:34 pm

2nd ni 5/12 pls

7:35 pm

Hi Flosey

7:35 pm

I have 66 left

7:35 pm

This is a work thing for me: never give a Libra a choice of drinks as you do the round for the vending machine. Every one else will have chosen coffe with or without, tea - same, hot chocolate, bovril, whatever....

7:35 pm

heh. i've still got 138 :*(

7:35 pm

Hi i have 107 left to find i feel sleep trying to get to 100

7:36 pm

Hi Tim

7:37 pm

I could never se t up home with a Libra - I'd probably be imprinsoned for murder or something within 6 months.

7:37 pm

'course, i'm also (sort of) a virgo, which is about as un-libra as it gets...

Jess how old is the kitty?

7:37 pm

7:38 pm

these IN words are driving me nuts.

7:38 pm

Give me a grumpy Aries or a digruntled Gaot (Capricorn) any day!

7:38 pm

8:29 pm

michelle, did you try to reboot?

8:29 pm

email lickety to ask for the beta version of babble expert. don't know how fast you'd get it, but it'd be a good backup, and a great tool anyway

8:29 pm

Yes...that didn't work either

thank you just got it lb

Oh um with the bigger grids it may take its time to load

8:30 pm

Thanks...I guess I won't finish because I can't pull up the list...

8:31 pm

does brandyjack still do his list over on babanon? you could use that one

Have you got an email i can send you the list

8:32 pm

it's not checkbox style, just a straight list, but better than nothing on such a big grid

8:32 pm

featherbee i have never joined a book club before what do we do

8:32 pm

brandyjack didn't do it today..that is what I have been using since I couldn't pull it up

Just sent on email to you Michelle

8:45 pm

I'd never put Jordan in the same sentence as Tolkein

8:45 pm

i saw it on the shelf and it entrigued me

8:46 pm

hows the babying going?

8:46 pm

lol mool

8:46 pm

beautiful picture feather

8:46 pm

I have read it twice. It captured me.

8:46 pm

Never read Robert Jordan...

Feather i just posted

8:46 pm

nor pratchett for that matter mool

8:46 pm

he just died this week i am mouring the loss

8:46 pm

I read a lot of his, but his writing style isn't particularly refined

8:47 pm

robert jordan that is

8:47 pm

ty flosey!

8:47 pm

read a lot of pratchett...not too bad, but no Tolkein for sure :)

8:47 pm

he did? oh no, how sad

8:47 pm

really?

8:47 pm

do you mean pratchet mool

8:47 pm

Jordan's writing really bothered me

My b.read Tolkien's The Hobbit at 6 never could get into Pratchet.

8:48 pm

If I were a book would someone respond to my hello? :)

8:48 pm

felt his character development was pretty ordinary, his story structure was not particularly complex

Feather Robert Jorden DIed on Sat/Sun last week

8:48 pm

Hi, saphyre

8:48 pm

pratchett can some times be bi-polar in his writting

8:48 pm

hey saph :)

8:48 pm

hi :)

8:48 pm

yeah, if you read Tolkein, it makes the rest hard to read

8:49 pm

indeed tim

8:49 pm

hi saphyre, nice to read...err...see you!

8:49 pm

is it wrong for me to be mad at him for ding before he finished the wheel of time series

http://www.dragonmount.com/RobertJorda n/

8:49 pm

I haven't read any fantasy though since I was in my early 20s :)

8:49 pm

8:49 pm

8:49 pm

Tim they are going to finish the series using his notes like they did with Tolkien

8:50 pm

8:50 pm

8:50 pm

8:52 pm

whoooo hoooo DOXY

Um ta i think i know what i mean but i have trouble with words and thinking today

8:52 pm

his latest thing is making sure nick is covered properly with a blanket. earlier today (it was warm here) i didn't have one on him. Daniel felt he needed one, so he put his (Daniel's) lovey on nick's legs. the lovey is a little blanket that daniel sleeps with. think a small version of linus' blanket.

8:53 pm

i like being in another realm:)

8:53 pm

moo, if you have the ra9, just add re to the front

8:53 pm

re11 uses a gerund ending; giving off light and heat

8:53 pm

re+ ra9= re11

8:53 pm

Oh, how cute, feather!

8:53 pm
