Hi Sprite

jilli, how very very true! Great sport, but not for spectators :D
Hi sprtie

Question
Yers, lady???
Answer
Ok actually a random left field thought.
too late at nite for that lol
Out with it...
lots of phantoms today
What kind of person plays Savage Garden To the moon and back with the words Theyre saying mamma never loved Her much And daddy never keeps in touch' as a funeral song I am just saying
I have never understood this thought id say it
the same sort of ppl as my hsuband who wants Pink Flloyds Comfortably Numb as his funeral song?
you lost me, lady
Beats me...
the fact was this person killed themselves because of this very reason their father was an arsehat and though their mother cared they never felt it
oh dear
then it does not do the situation credit, that last line, I'd say
Lots of random thoughts today
argh Kiwi, that is something
have you lost a friend herin
Yes ages ago it was a random thought i have had
morning babblers just having a quick peak before uni can i have the stats please

hi again peeps!
woohooo i found an 8 my first for the nite
hi rose!

wb Fran! Can you tell me why I cannot pluralise the hawaiian goose? Is the plural repeating the word? Or is it both singular and plural?
well done, Kiwi!
hey fran, how's life. i've had my bitch, your turn.
i don't really know sprite, i think it's used as both sing. and plural
maybe it's like moose, one word is both single and plural
you mean the plural isn't meese joso?
thanks! I was wondering about that before.
:-)
you mean i can't have two mooses? what a sshame!!!
hello?
meese are a bit smaller
life is fine here rose, no reason for me to complain

okay, i reloaded the full page and i now see it in the chat joso, it's really cool
okay infernal
whats the uni question herin?
did you get all the Ts from the top left yet?
how long can files stay in record, some say 5 7 or ten years depending on the states depends on the answer hence the head desky
grr got booted and couldn't get back in
wb dee
in US payroll records have to be kept for 7 years
ty so if I didn't answer someone, I wasn't being impolite!
exactly my irritation
lol dee, you're often lost in the grid, it wouldn't be the first time you disappeared. :-)
7 years for most; only 5 for some; and forever in cases of suspected fraud
LOL fran...
sounds like a poorly worded question infernal, maybe the answer is an essay. :-)
except she's in australia dee. might be different
well that is kinda a short version of the question
actually fran, my family thinks I am "lost in space" most of the time lol
aww true fran hadn't thot of that
lol dee (re: lost in space)
ok... back to being lost in grid or I will never finish... still have 148 to go
so at babbler you'
you're just lost in cyberspace
lol
The problem is it also depends on wether or not VicPol need stuff for future cases
i swear they give me these questions to annoy me
is anyone here?
Volley lickety has put up the list
i'm here infernal
yes and I am sooooo appreciative!!
Didnt know if you got that memo or not
ty
I love these big grids i dont like the fact that i type words quiker than they entetr
infernal, you didn't answer me earlier, did you find all the left corner Ts?
because i did and i can help you if you need any
oh! dream come true! 350+ grid :D
Oh sorry thought that was at Groovy then i got lost. Yes i did grey that top T thanks working on the rest ot the t words now
Hello MR Pres

hi mrp... may I ask why you were tossing furniture?
yay lynxxx!!
oh never! it is destroyed when it hits the pavement, then it slides down the hill right to the bin! all we do is pick it up and toss it!
Lovely nice set up
volley, some of the stuff we have is 15 years + old, and not worth the rubbish removal we have to pay :D... so it is going going gone
Mr Pres i love play plate cricket
lickety had this disgusting 1980's computer table... really nasty thing... that went over the balcony today
aww makes sense
Mr Pres when i moved the mattress and bags of clothes got tossed of the second floor
Is the plural of OX oxen?
I can't wait to do the vitual tour for you all! it is starting to look wonderful
Lovely MR pres
Ha ha the question is a double answer thanks babble
yes infernal, if you're talking about the animal
I went shopping for all the nicknacks today, candles, plates for the candles, stones, sticks, vases, flowers, table settings, ornaments.... the house is looking amazing!
if you're talking about a big ox of a guy, it's oxes
cool mrp, can't wait to see the pictures
Its a double answer and they are trying to be smartie pants and well we all know the right answer due to babble land
did you solve the lounge problem?
sure did, got a new lounge
Mr Pres lovely. i am about to do the turfing thing at my house too. Just have to prie the stuff of the boy.

I will take the throw rugs back on monday and get a whole new lot that are 70% off, the store let me have these $100 rugs in the time being until the gorgeous ones come in

Congrats Dart !
I am infern... I am. I had a pretty bad day with lickety today, arguing about what needed to be done first vs last... he was doing cleaning whilst I was wanting everything out and sorted BEFORE cleaning. It was abit ugly
yay dart :)
lynxxx, there are two wi5/28, the second one was the one that surprised me
Today i told a friend that is an emotional vampire to feck off. I feel a million dollars
that's too bad mrp, but you were right of course
poor Lickety - be nice MRP he's just a man
good for you infernal!

Cats found the cream not interested. Told you she was weird
Yah no more Ts
omg, i have found 26 re's!!!
who's a clever girl then?
maybe, maybe. but i'm shaking in my sandals ( too hot for boots)
back... crashing here halfway a panic attack and a crying fit, so bear with me.
oh sprite! ((hug))
HUGS the Sprite
Hi Sprite - you'll be fine now , you are amongst your dearest friends! (((hugs)))
go rose go!
reintegration man has left... his conclusion is that there is no way I can come back to either my old job or my old firm... will have to wait out until reassessment of my invalidity benefit is in order.
:(
stuk at 206. going blind. bye for now
bye ?mark!
Sprite - that sounds like it was an ordeal, no wonder you are on edge. Did you really want to go back?
you may have to live with his judgements Sprite, but you don't have to accept them or believe them
soooooo, perhaps I should start the grid?? :D
bye ?Mark
yay, found the last re.... now for the s's
I don't even know what I want, except that I want to have rest and peace.
if you want to rest in peace sprite..... (not going there)
is everything ok darling sprite?
it is definitely a good option. If I wouldn't hurt my love and kids and friends too much with it, I am not sure what I'd do. But I am a responsible person, always have been... not going to change that now.
well enjoy your (temporary) rest and peace that you have right at the moment Sprite. Who knows what the future holds...then again NONE of us do
Shalom Everyone -- a biggie
hi arb :)
true, lynxxx, true.
hi arb
MrP -- how are you doing?
Sprite you are a valuable person. Dont let this get you down. HUGS
HI ARB
it is so not a good option! would hurt everyone and cause self blame on those who don't deserve it
Sprite -- hugs
don't feel anywhere near valuable right now. Can't even have a proper conversation with a kind man about my future without total breakdown.
hi Lady
ARB, am doing ok... I have a new lounge!! the only ray of sunshine in the pouring rain at the moment
We value you.
I know, mrP, so I am here to stay
oh sprite!
hi arb!
when you need to talk, let me know
thanks all
How's your healing process? On schedule ?
Hi Fran
thanks hun, can't talk at all right now, but perhaps later *hug*
ask arroud here about your value, or luke, a little kindness from you seems to go a long way among these folk
I went to an op-shop today and got a few gorgeous display-like things for the house
Sprite go yell at something. Might make you feel better
thanks joso ((hugs))
on schedule... a schedule that is going to take several more years and does almost certainly guarantee only a partial healing.
I am always here for my friends and all those darling sprite(s) that need me and can use my help
um is there a Sa 8 please
thanks JoSo... guess that is my only real value... that I truly care for people.
why is that an "only", thats major
I guess it could be... but doesn't pay the rent
Yes Lady, there is an sa 8/40
yes... only my ass! you have the value of 10 people
thanks can i have a clue
pease
sorry to be so negative, btw... having a big dip here, will be less depressing soon, promise
np sprite, you feel what you feel, it's all valid
Dont be sprite today is a poo day for me too
you have to get it out sprite, better with us
thanks, all of you. Your support means so much to me.
Lady, s + slang for butt (4 letters) + what you can catach a fish in (3 letters)
oh you better be! my evening/sleep is counting on you having a good day! I did so much today, under duress, that you could not possibly want my life right now :O)
why was the conversation a negative, sprite? you let no one down by learning you will not go back to a place that makes you ill. you beat yourself up for breaking down? why? are you not supposed to have feelings?
wow arb, thanks!
thanks
BUT, my house looks incredible, my skeleton is dragging bones and maggots around in the meantime
TY ARB. and hi!
I have it all ready dang it
In a down mood it's very ez to find the negitives, but there are always positives if you look hard enough sprite, who dose tim need more than anyone for example
I need to kill my housemate
realised I was countering everything positive that was said in the chat with a but, BabbleRabble. Not really the way to go about it. But thanks for being so accepting and supportive.
ok infern, what do you need?
Hi Lyn
got a plan herin, lol
Got it already i have a magnolia tree out the frount or i could buy some Bindeez
the bindeez are just for fun... get a contractor
Inhaling bindeez is bad mmm k

Il faut reverter to English?

Cher Eva et Merp how are you?
ca va bien chez nous
Merrrrrrrrrpppp!
HAven't seen you for ages Eva trust all is well.
Bonjour Eva et Merp.
yes....just had to give it a rest for a while, and a lot of the time am guilty of lurking.
Je ne t'ai pas vu pour un age, Eva! J'espere tout et bien?
Tout est bien ata..et vous?
Ata, you can stop now, ja?
wow Ata is really good at this
FMitch est vert avec jealousy parce que ele n'a pas pu continuer en francais.
vous avez commence ca FMitch!
Hi lynxxx
FMItch to blame!
see its all your fault again FM!
bye Dee and JoSo
Merp ne parle pas francais mais il peut comprendre
and hi FM... can we blame you again?
Fermez les bouches tout les monde. Ou est mes ami .....
Tout est bien ici, Eva. Mais ma chienne veut faire de la randonnee.
Hi sprite, of course you can :)
lol FM!
tes amis sont ici FMitch
randonee?
ah great, FMitch! Had a helluva morning... soooo nice to be able to blame it on someone else ;)
walkies ;)
ah
"make a hike", literally
I think Atal was actually offering us all a recipe - ?
Ah well, I need a bit of warning for that sort of blaming sprite, but you can book me for a week next Tuesay if you need it.
nah, blaming you anyway, whether you are ready or not :D
ha ha yay Sprite!
Medre!
ok, I will pardon your french
teehee, ;)
Soooo, having caused mayhem as usual ... Nice grid today!!
Was FM trying to be smug and show off her French skills? Is that how the Frenchness started?
It is - 'cept i am so out of practice, I am all over the place and not getting far fast
grid is saving my life today
FMitch could not possibly compete in the smug stakes.
well, I know. but she tries
Not while you're around, Atalante.
I hear you hold the smugness crown Ata
play nice children!
Is it true that there's to be a babble oscars coming up?
Lynxx me too but I was lulled by finding the a8/9 in the first couple of mins.
how can there possibly be another 9 w's?!
Ooooooh. Smugness in words......
there are two of thos 18's fmitch
a8's I meant
sprite, I must speak with you
stuff 9 w's, how can there be another 12!!
I have manged a fairly stately 241 so far, sits back smugly (Ha Ha)!
mrP... can we type on skype then?
... falls of chair, looses all vestige of smugness.
don't want to talk right now on the headset
up to 250 and pretty stuck
I just hope no neighbours are passing FMitch's house.
248 here
argh, will stop posting words now... sorry
245 here (can I get the list now?)
FM - do you want a hand up?
You can get the list any time you like, lynxxx. The babbler inspectors are on strike today.
Thanks lynxx, but I'll stay down here, can reach the keyboard and coffe. Saves any further bumps :)
mrP, did you see my answer?
yes sprite
ok
50 A words. That's just wrong
as are the 40 W's and the 48 M's ... and ... and ... Oh my!
Now come one, Atalante. We've all been crying out for a big grid, you have to accept the consequences.
Do I have to start playing my Churchill speeches?
*I* haven't! I've had all your wishes imposed on my grid!
Ahem, I think that was you bemoaning the dinky sizes - so for that we can ALL blame Haz.
There was a collective feeling of needing more words. You have to accept the wishes of the majority.
we never blame Haz. We blame you.
I was *quite* happy with little grids, tyvm!
There were other mo7/32 besides me!
we could possible just blame haz as *well* for this one
*possibly
Well, I'm happy to take the blame for this one. I requested a big grid on Wednesday. There, I've confessed.
Wooohooo!!!!
And anyway, we've managed to entice FMitch into the log, so it's a good thing really.
but we still have to blame FM as well, of course
You'll thank me in the end.
(((hugs))) I've missed you too
Je sais!
love the big grid
how's the spangly one today?
and the volcano is here to celebrate and pl of course
The spangly one is keeping the stairs from falling down at the minute. She lies across them.
and Fran's goose
what a clever girl!
lol lynxxx literally just found that one
100 left and that seems a good place to pause for a while.
And will you stay down on the ground?
probably safest
I prayed for a bigger grid... actually of 350+... so send me the pain
Morning Babblers I see we have a nice meaty grid to work with today
Well it's quite comfortable but the printer needs more paper so I ha better resume the upright position.
hello Nono
You see, FMitch and Atalante? I share the glory for this grid with others. I am not solely to blame!
astia
Okay, you'd better heave yourself up then. Not too quickly in case the blood runs to your head.
sorry bout that - as you can see I need a leg stretch as well - BBL
Good morning Nono - and bye lynxxx.
Hi Nono and MrP. Adieu tous les monde, et tout a leur. (sp)?
I think you mean a tout a l'heure. But a good stab, quand meme.
yikes FM afraid my french is a bit rusty
tout a l'heure. almost LOL
merci et *poof*
It's not a probleme, Nono, nous manageons avec what we can souvenir.
Bye FMitch - see you later.
On parle franglais
Ou! Tout ce que vous need is attitude et confidence.
And shrug your shoulders a lot.
I can't get away from the gallic version of Ena Sharples accessory. le 'airnet.
morning all
Good morning crp.
looks like a nice grid, glad its not just 60 or 70 words
morning crp
It's a nice juicy grid.
hmmm where shall I take the dogster today? Woods, lakes, beaches or fields?
She's not keen on the indoor treadmill, then?
i opt for the beach Ata
The woods might be nice - rustly leaves.
I wish she was!
choices choices!
Good morning ... Haz, look at the size of this one!
Flip a coin? Show of hands?
I know, Mom, isn't it great? And Wednesday, just like we ordered.
Good morning mom!
Yes, out voices were heard
show of paws
good morning Nono
Put pictures of the options in front of Hobbit and let her choose.
Dog democracy.
didn't realize I said a word in the chat until now. Sorry
Never worry about it, Mom, sure with this number we're probably all going to be stuck in the penalty box.
that way, we'd be going to the beach then the woods then the lake ...
Oh, are you going to use proportional representation? Transferred votes and all. It took Ireland two weeks one time to work out who had won.
**filling penalty box with assorted goodies** probably so
Do let Hobbit know that you've a grid to do - a big one, thanks to Mom who requested it.
it was with mutual agreement, Haz. Since this was the day we both were free of committments
i'm stuck :(
This is true, Mom. But think of the glory when people are pleased!
good morning Rmcc
yes, there will be a lot of people quite pleased but also a lot will be saying "why couldn't this be on the weekend"
ground to a halt. can anyone pls clue me na7/28? and hey to you too mom
I can't Rmcc, just getting started
thank goodness for "er", "s" and the dreadful "re"
na7/28 - plural for an adjective that ends in the sometimes vowel, Not nice.
na7/28 is pl of rotten things
Or, na plus the piggy homes.
when your ready for some help, just yell. if i'm still here, i'll do what i can.
thanks Rmcc
thanx haz and nono, found them both
have to go for a bit, time to call my Sweetie and tell him good morning. He is in Baltimore this week
Great! And now, I'd better follow Atalante's example and head out with the dog. Not so many choices around here, but the fresh air will do us good and the exercise will help arrest the over-development of babbler posterior. Bye for now!
bye Haz, enjoy your walk
later haz
bye haz and I'm off doggy walkign too :) bye!
bye Atalante
bye haz se ya later
later ata
have a nice chat with your sweetie Mom
bye bye Ata enjoy the walk
thanks Nono. I am finding it hard to drag away from this one.
i know the words are just flowing so nicely
clue pls sa6/18, the first one?
sa 6 -- superlative
Whoa, baby! We finally got the big grid we have been waiting for!!
hey BR and scabbler
Good day everyone! Greetings from a winter wonderland. Everything is covered in snow.
thanx BR
morning Scrabbler
how much of the stuff did you get?
A few inches--it started about 24 hrs ago and is the heavy, wet type, so the roads were very slushy yesterday.
yuck and that always causes lots of fender benders with it being the first storm of the year
Traffic was VERY slow yesterday, except for the usual idiots.
I found our favorite volcano in the grid, with its reverse word too. How comforting.
be sure to look for everyones favorite bird as well scrabbler
TY, Nono--got it now.
But the tsetse fly is not here
Coffee refill anyone?
would love some please
What would you like in it? I have soy milk, 1 % milk, Splenda, sugar...?
oh black please
hello fellow babblers... my dog is doing the worst 'smells' and I am relucant to stay in this room... but **gag** she is sleeping and I can't do much about it! how is the grid?
lol MRP must be catching - our dog just got moved off the couch and into the hall
Hi Scrabbler & Nono
Poor mrp, LOL. Bunny Callie just followed me into the kitchen when I got coffee--she always begs for a snack of some sort. Here is your coffee, Nono.
hello, all
Hi MrP! The grid is lovely
thanks Scrabbler!

Scrabbler said everything is white in her area
Today i made the best decision to dump the emotional vampire of a 'friend' and move foward.
Hey, look, we finally have a big grid.
( dc..i live a 5 min walk from the lake...I could hear it pounding in the wind last night with my windows closed ).... it must have been the UP
morning, inge

e"motional vampire"
Good phrase, infernal. Morning, all

I am back. Yep, we got snow here, Carlee. A few inches.
excellent herin.... my daughter had to learn that one last spring....

It will melt in a day or two, and then I must finish raking leaves before winter comes and stays.

Yes, that made me ill too, Inge2.

Have the 10 and the 9's
Thank you Mom, I'm a little wetter than before. It's a 'soft day' here.
oh no. **hands towel over**
Just a mizzly rain, nothing to get excited about. They claim it's good for the skin.
good day for a large grid then
mant
sorry
Yes, I can babble with a clear conscience.
phew, wasn't a word
oddly, the most recent email in my inbox is timed an hour in the future
lol Haz
must not have set the clock back, Dcseain
Is it from a psychic?
well, i suppose the Remembering Retail Yahoo group could be psychic.
ah, yahoo server issue, that seems likely. ty, mom.
:) dcseain, you're welcome
brb, i want some jam for my croissant.
in addition to the 7 words that start with z, there are 23 other words with z in it
z is more useful than we knew.
YOU CAN'T HAVE PIZZA WITHOUT Z

bbs

See you later, Peri.
no, not bad at all
no..not bad at all..am just thinking about what I have today....and how much time I have...etc...purely selfishness on my part..i know
I understand that, Carlee. Not selfish at all
term for an iron deficiency
not selfish, carlee, we all have our time restraints.
i have issues with that if i'm not careful about my food, or supplementing.

r 7 & 8 clothes

dwellers in cloth abodes, Please help
Is it the fraction?
not the 9th but the 10**
thaks Haz, I tried that before and it would not take it. I probably typed it wrong.
You're welcome. 1 more word till break?
electrician
Now I need sa 5/10, just above the Indian skirt
sa 5 -- domingo
ok...well... am to point of being finished any grid of the last 2 weeks..and I still have 250 words left....
thanks BR,
I am taking a break. Need but 162
See you later, inge.
take care inge
back... enjoy your break inge
ok..the last si7 is just a stoopid word
how was the walk, Haz
The walk was slightly damp, Nono. But fresh air is always good.
i dont mind damp as long as its not too chilly
Saint Soe*r?s - any clues as to what that might be - not grid-related
Cold and dry is my preference.
French for sister?
cold and dry is the desert-time we call Winter here. If there is snow, the humidity might creep to 30%
it looks like mayb Saint Soewrs?
how spell french word for sister - i forget
I am back for a little bit
soeur
ah! YES, that's it, haz! Thank you.
You're welcome.
red letters on a background of strawberries is a bad idea
And if you wear rose tinted glasses, forget it.
mornin babblers!
:D LOL
good marning EvaNadine!
Hello Eva - interview day for the BF?
it is, it is...but not until 2:30!
hello everyone!
morning, annie
Hi Annie!
Good morning Annie!
hi deceain
and good luck to the b/f, EvaN
So, plenty of time for him to get ready.
Hi Nono
Hi Nono
I do so hope it goes well for him, Eva
thanks -- he left me a super-sweet note on the bathroom mirror since ive been helping him out so much through this no-work time...so i left him a super-sweet note of good luck for his interview today. :)
You'll kill each other with sugar overload!
heh, its well-appreciated lately...we have both been pretty stressed out!
It's good that you've got through it without falling out. I hope he gets the job.
its tense sometimes, but we are working hard at not taking the stress out on each other and reminding each other that we are on the same team. :)
There should be two bears living in any home. Bear and Forbear.
indeed so, haz
hah, never heard that, but i like it!
It's from my collected words of wisdom series.
Or it will be when I get around to writing it.
hah
well, ill certainly buy it when its done. ;)
Thank you - I'll put you on the list of potential customers.
As your literary agent, I will of course be arranging a publicity tour!
sounds like a lovely volume to have around, Haz. I do hope someday to be able to purchase a copy.
We still have to negotiate your commission, FMitch.
It is a book that should be in every home
2 weeks of not being blamed?
...and what about commission for the proof reader, Haz? ;)
hazel's nuts of wisdom
Ah yes, the proof reader. Everyone will want a slice of the action.
lol Hi Jacs and Annie and dc and EvaN and good luck to EvaNs BF and hello BabRab
*grins*
WHY or why do I always miss the goose the first time through?
And I suppose you'll want paid for the title, BabbleRabble? At this rate, my millions will not stay with me for long.
"Each page in this volume will plant a tree of knowledge in your brain"
I don't blame you for anything, FM
good afternoon, fmitich
I'll sort all of that out for you Haz, you just concentrate on the writing Hi Carlee
hello all. back for more fun. at 179
Good morning everyone
and I came no monetary interest of any kind
hi fm..hi merk
have found 1/2 the words, bbl
BabbleRabble, thank you, I think you are the only one :)
my goal was to pay money for a copy of the completed work.
Just a mention in the dedication enough, Babble?
hi, bb
ill take BRabbles cut then. ;)
Hi FM, Merk, bb, Br
nah ... nada
dc. did you vote yesterday?
morning annie.
The vultures are circling.
BB, is that a morgan?
yes i did, bb
hey now, we are a 1-income household...i can use all the cash i can get. ;)
dc, with the time that Haz spends in babble land the book will be a very quick read.
no, that's a Barber, isn't it, bb
My jaw is agape. Some literary agent.....
Good morning everyone. Finally, a grid of substance... I am going in. Eva, I hope that you have very good news later in the day! Hazlenuts is a grand title, BR-r! :-)
double eagle......
It may be a quick read, but it will be thought-provoking, 'm sure.
{{Scarlet}}
sorry, i was referring to the desiger of the obverse of the coin
thanks scarlet! (and thanks FMitch, too, since i think i didnt say that before!)
indeed so, haz!
Good morning Scarlet.
AnnieBrooklyn!! :-) {{{back}}} Good morning, Haz!
good morning, Scarlet
Haz until you confirm my "fees" I am still just yr friend :)
Top of the morning to you, dc!
Hello Scarlet. Are YOU interested in being my literary agent? I'm losing confidence in my current one.
morning red.... and yes..i know... I was "there" before all "this" happened
Hey, Im the only one not asking for money!
haz, you'd need on on each side of the pond, no?
Good morning, kattie. {{{special hugs}}}
Morning Scarlet
Perhaps, dc. Then there's the Antipodean angle to consider.
Good, kat. Hello, Ms. FMitch... how are your studies progressing?
Are they ready for you Haz, do you think? OK ish Scarlet, it's still early days and a long way to go .
ok..1/2 way..am off for a while..crap class..thent ake son to walk in clinic for his throat...back later....
enjoy the day...
i swear the dog is getting clutzier as his eyes get worse. I guess part of it could be the seeming arthritis.
ciao, carlee!
Bye carlee.
bye carlee, later
No, thank you, Haz... but I will offer my editing talents gratis... I would be delighted to be a small part of a publisher's dream issue...
I am stuck on the an 7,28. Is there any sort of clue for that one?
Later, kattie!
an7/28 - looks like a rallying call for those who don't like the window left open
Scarlet, I'll bear your offer in mind. Thank you!
Why can't we get a puzzle like this on the weekend.....
Well, greetings BJ!
wow, i havent seen brandyjack in AGES!!
hear, hear, brandjack! and a good morning to you too
Or, an7/29 - a plural for an6/18, take out a vowel from the previous rallying call.
Hello Brandyjack.
There are 2 an7/28 btw
Good morning to you, Brandyjack!
golly, I am lost
good morning BJ
Morning. Stats are posted. Not that many are likely ready for them on this monster just yet....
Merk, you're not lost, you're right here.....
So it is like the an 6 and 7 that follow it
Thanks BJ.
Hi BJ, Scarlet, Haz, FMitch, dcs,Eva,Annie (running out of breath here)... (-:
Merk, the first an7/28 - looks like against what we breathe.
oh, and Merk too!
Aloy! yay and hello :)
an6/18 - takes a vowel from what we breathe, an7/28 the second is the plural.
Hello Aloy!
Ahoy, Aloy! Wonderful grid to get in the middle of the week!
hello, aloy and merk :)
Good morning, Merk.
on that note, i'm going to take a short nap. ¡Hasta!
Luego, dc!
Quick break to get some lunch rustled up. I had lost track of time. I blame FMitch.
{poof}
Hi Aloy!
hi there, FM.. long time no see.. Haz, we have been on at different times.. Scarlet, it is very gloomy today so I'm happy to have a nice big grid to brighten my day..
Later, Haz.
Did you get hit with snow, Aloy?
North of us did, but we just had snow showers that didn't stick.. more is forecast
Bye Haz, my friend, *lip quiver*
later, Haz
Good... Scrabbler mentioned that upper NY state had snow... but I don't know any measurements!
They are forecasting snow for parts of Scotland on todays forecast
There, there, FMitch... *spice tea and bisquits to soothe the anxiety of separation*
I can wait for that event... this is perfect weather... bracing, chilly and bright...
Oooh thank you Scarlet, you know just thr right thing to cure quivery lips.
You are welcome, friend, FM! :-)
Okay... a grid it is! Into the brink...
I baked a lovely spiced apple and walnut cake at the weekend. BF made me promise to make anotherone!
ooh, i didn't realize that the name of the org for really bright people counts as a word.. maybe cuz i am not in that org, lol
OH, that sounds toooo sinful, FM... LOL, Aloy... it might be a biological term... women...
grrrrrrr lost internet for a bit hope its not going to be that kind of day
duh, lol
HI, Nono... sorry about that... no word on the cause of the fire yet...welcome back!
wb Nono
ty scarlet and aloy
Right I had better be off, book tour to organise for Haz and all that! Happy Babbling
I'm back. Those lips can stop quivering, FMitch.
Too late!
FM, you have inspired me.. baking would warm the kitchen, too.. see you later, FMitch. wb Haz
welcome back, Haz
I must let you have my set of demands for the tour. White orchids, George Clooney, nothing too demanding.
LOL see you later Haz bye all *poof*
bye bye aloy and FM
Bye FM!
With George at your side you can accomplish everything Haz!
Nono.. I'm here.. but someone drank my coffee, so brb
I fear he would be too much of a distraction though. I'd be wondering if the crowds turned up to see him instead of me.
ohhhhhhhh was that yours??? so sorry
*snicker at the Nono bratty stuff*
Who cares, Haz... bring 'em in any way you can!
back with a cuppa.. (out of Nono's reach)
Maybe you're right. Buying the book is the main thing.
Ti4 for lunch and then more ironing.:( BBL for final 131.
Remember the old public relations' mantra: Say anything you want, motives be dashed... just get the name in the media and keep the profile very high!
Do a Heather Mills you mean?
Later, Jac!
Bye Jacula!
Hardly... that woman is *disturbed* and disturbing...
I'm glad I'm not the only one to have reached that conclusion.
It was not difficult...
I don't think the two bears lived in that house.
Must concentrate now... I'll be the peripheral observer now... No way, Haz... they have been too occupied in your home! :-)
Okay Scarlet, enjoy the grid. It's one to get the teeth into.
I am chewing as we speak, Haz!
So am I!
:-)
lol, goose alert
I know, some familar babble words today.
African country two days running...
yesterday's grid was full of newbies for me..
Z has been campaigning for more recognition.
It has it now, in Babble...
Yesterday's was very different, wasn't it? I had to make use of all resources to get it finished.
finally over 200
I really enjoyed yesterday's grid... good going, bbnaz!
hey i am slogging along compared to some of those speedsters at the flip.
Oh.. perfume dispenser...
me too, hope I can remember some of the words i looked up... go, bb, go
I am moving along well, but it's never been about speed... it's the delicious discovery of words...
right, Scarlet.. ergo, I don't use the list until I'm pressed for time..
oops, so sorry.. to the penalty box
Exactly!
Oh... LOL
well you wouldn't know that at the flip Scarlet.....man oh man was there a LOT of dust!
at 260 words I finally see the volcano--jeez!!
mia is in the grid again today (-:
Hi, Une... until Aloy said it, the Hawaiian feather critter never made itself clear...
LOL, bbnaz... I like to savor it...
hey, scarlet :-)
well, Scarlet.. you unveiled the volcano for me, lol!
I saw GMA in Nashville on TV this morning, and thought of you, Une!
really? why were they here?
To broadcast Big & Rich... and to promote the CMA awards this evening...
I got the 10 pointer :)
I mean letter :)
Big & Rich??
wtg, PinkHat
A country duo who draws amazing crowds...
this board is big today!
Good going, PinkHat!
ty....
oohhh, sorry--not a fan of country music . . .
Neither am I... but often hear about them.
Hello everyone
one of my mom's caregivers is a rabid Garth Brooks stalker! LOL
hey, peri :-)
hi there, peri!
Hello, Miss Peri! How is that achy wrist today? Ooops, Une... diff'rent stokes, etc.!
Hello peri.
Hi Peri
My wrist is fine, Scarlet, no pain last night or today.
How are you doing today Mrs. Scarlet
ta
I am so relieved to hear that! :-) I am well, and happy as a lark that we have such a meaty grid!! It doesn't take much to gladden my heart...
I am liking the grid so far, have 192 left to find
You are sailing right along, peri!~
back again to whittle away at the grid
Hi Mom!
:) Hi Annie
wb, Mom
:) thank you Aloyisius and good morning
Welcome back, Mom... {{{hugs}}}
wb Mom
{{Scarlet}}, thank you and good morning
:-)
thank you Nono, good morning
I went off and put my contacts in, thinking I would see better. did it work? Nah!
*snicker*
just spotted a little brown bird in the grid, to accompany the seagulls
Yep!
aloy, dont forget the eagles
Thanks, AnnieB! :-)
And about a zillion ways to spell them...
hmm, Annie.. don't see a p for raptor
that is true, scarlet...and plurals, lots of plurals today
aloy, I think your grand is ready to walk
oh, you mean the sea eagle.. ok, i have that one
LoL, Annie.. she is 6 wks old..
What's taking so long, Aloy?
(-:
Good morning, a monster today when I have no time, ugh.
aloy, yes, I know....the expression on her face says, okay, lets get this show on the road
good morning Marc
She looks older than six weeks.
I need a clue for the first te7/28, please
still waiting for a nice big smile..
hello Mom
Hello Marc - it's big, but mostly nice.
it will go fast, Marc, lots or re, er and plural
Yes I know have 234 left
I have to take a break, l16 to go....later, babblers
Later, dear Annie!
later, Annie..
See you later, Annie.
maybe you can squeeze in some time in small lots
later Annie
bye Annie, hurry back
bbl
bye bye Peri
See you soon, peri!
Mom I will try but I still need a clue for the first te7/28, please, anyone?
the only te 7 I have is plural of the one who pitches them on a camping trip
te7/28 - a plural for te6 - relating to the number, used to indicate a type of English note
It's the same structure as the canvas dwellers.
thanks Haz
You're welcome.
I am lost. The te6 before is one who is more stressed
Gosh, I just monkeyed a few AM words I've never seen before... I love this!
You're missing the first te6/18 and its plural. They come before the stressed ones.
you are missing some then marck
Sorry, not the first te6/18 - the first te6/18 and te7 combo.
hello everyone :)
The first te6/18 is someone who kids you but I don't think there is a 7 that comes after that one.
Hi, mrp!!
hi again mrP you are up rather late
Hello MrP, good to see you
te6/18 - sounds like another version of the male opera singers, but obviously spelled differently.
Hello mrpresident!
hi there, mrp!!
Thanks got it.
That's good, Marc.
I just gave Lickety the Deluxe Facial, Foot and Hand Care Treatment... He is still thanking me for it :))
That sounds good. You've resolved your differences over the way to clean/clear?
lucky Lickety!
When are you coming south, MrP? LOL
brb.. phone
Phone...
Could they be phoning each other?
Aloy and Scarlet must be talking to one another :)
lol
oh there is no resolution to the organisation of clearing/cleaning the house! We have embraced our inner monkey and decided to just go hard on a particular part of the house that grabs our attention. It has worked wonders! I feel tht I am in someone elses place, already
If you're both feeling more positive, that's good.
Hi everyone!....
Hello Flask :)
Hello Flask - how are you?
hi all
well, let me see, it is just after 2.00am... I hope you have a great evening
hi Flask
am well, thanks Haz...and you?
wow, it is that late??
good night MrP
Hello sprite - and GO TO BED MRP!
woohooo just noticed I have less than 100 left to find
HI Sprite :)
sounds like bedtime to me, mrP!
back.. hi Flask and Sprite..
I'm fine thanks, Flask, a bit of a drippy day outside.
congrats Nono
Oh Haz, its beautiful here...the sun it splitting the skies!!
There's no justice.
:-)
Haz, heavily overcast, rain, storm here.
Hi Aloy..and Sprite..and Nono....and anyelse I may have missed earlier!
Okay, I feel better, we have no storm!
see.... justice for all
yet...Haz!!......lol
This is true. The weather seems to balance itself out. We had a soggy summer and the driest October for 50 years.
stupid weather
a clue please for the am 7/8 combo?
against french mother(s), Flask
**passes cookies around to everyone** celebrating the fact that I am halfway finished.
oh, the am, I am sorry
don't have the am yet
am8 - think of the word used in senility, normally beginning with de******. Use that ending.
thanks you Haz
-s
Or el4/4 finish the prayer and add a spanish aunt.
tyvm, Haz and Sprite..
good Mom! And thanks for the cookies
you're welcome Sprite
thanks Haz!
You're welcome.
Please can I have the last cookie?....:-(
Help yourself Flask, please
*opens new box of fresh cookies* you go have your fill, Flask
202 down :) and 187 left :( off for a visit with my mom and dad, see everyone later. {Hugs}
:-)....*drooling*....thanks....
See you later Mom.
bye Mom
bye for now, Mom
lol Flask, you noticed Sprite said new box of FRESH cookies. Wonder what she in implying?
is*
I never imply. I go right out and accuse.
lol Sprite
rofl
and your cookies we4 lovely, Mom :)
just kidding.
I couldn't pass that up.
:D
bye Haz, Sprite and Aloyisius and all the lurkers.
bye Mom
am just telling my carer Misti about this chat and she thinks its very funny!
Bye Mom - they're now known as peripheral observers or sideline watchers.
bye Mom
or lurkers for short
I love it, of course......that was a good bit there with Sprite and Mom!
one of the many nice things about this si4 :)
bye Mom!
and now that I read back, Mom... I said NEW box of fresh cookies. Intonation says it all :P
I had to laugh on Sunday when my sister arrived for lunch - she checked in the cloakroom to make sure George wasn't there. She babbles and lurks at lunchtime and had seen the chat about George escaping.
Oh I know that Sprite......it was just that I was laughing out loud...and she was looking at me funny...lol
lol Flask... now I get it... you had one of your attacks and now you are hiding behind our chat!
lol Haz
*blushing*...mmm...yes...
yay, passed the 100 left mark
gooooooooooo sprite!!
an 7, 28, clue for the first one please
against stuff for breathing, Merk
against what you breath
snap, Nanette :)
hehee great minds and all that
ty, I need coffee
very true :)
Okay, going for another portion of fresh air and a burst of ironing afterwards. Happy babbling.
some life of luxury you lead, Haz! Enjoy!
I know. And I will enjoy the ironing.
take care Haz
BYee!
bye for now, haz
bob marley sure would be upset that there is no rasta
I tried rasta about 3 times
is it really that close to 3am?? LOL, I am not doing too well with sleep tonight
mrp you were so quiet i thought maybe you had fallen asleep at the puter
Back again... so long, Haz and Mom, and hello sprite and Flask... {{hugs to both ladies}} And, hello to anyone I missed!

Gosh, no, Nono... I still have 219 left... answered the phone, cleared out and straightened two drawers while talking to my sister, and then jumped into a scalding shower to get my grey matter in motion... LOL
It was a video on Saturday or Sunday, Nono... Ata? When was it?
ohhh thought you were talking about today's video
Nope... that's what I thought you thought... LOL!
not sure, I wasn't here that day!
Okay then... it was adorable either or any day it was shown...
I have it bookmarked and watch it any time I need cheering up!
I just reach over and stroke my ancient monster-cat, and she purrs right on cue every time! :-)
awwwwwwwww
don't you just love the way they respond so quickly
I like the way they go "prrrrrt!" when you wake them up
i hate "re" words
I kind of like the monochromatic flow of the chat icons with Ata, Nono and my images... Yes, I do, Nono... nothing like it in the world... total love and devotion without any real demands.. Yes, Ata... the chipmunk sound...
bbnaz.. i just finished them if you need a nudge on any of them..
the second 5.18
hey, anyone have a clue for oa5,10 or om6,21?
mitchell, think of grain
oh, the one where the wood is cut again?
Plural drying ovens, Mitchell
thank you Aloy
yvw
Good morning, ladies. Should I attempt this monster??
now those pesky re words are gone and i have less than 100 to go!
not oasts or oater, but the other oa5,10 lol
you bet, krista.. jump right in
go for it Krista and good morning
well mitchell, why not try another consonant?
Ok, I shall! Thanks!
what about om6,21
Mitchell, just a hint, but we don't put grid words in chat... some people blow their stacks when they see it... We have a cyber "penalty box" for infractions... LOL
part of the anotomy.... Dr Oz talks about it on Oparh
om4/5 + brit thanks
Got it right away with that clue, Nono!! Thank you!
your most welcome Scarlet
:-)
Mitchell, what Scarlet said. i am one of the stack blowers.
..and me.
and moi
There, there, dear sprite... not today, it's too gorgeous outside and I am sending you blue skies and tender breezes to calm the outrage!!
hey Jac *hug*
well i must join u blowers as i blow my load every night. ooooo, did u see what i did there!
Hi, Jacula
Off to make quiche for tonight. BBL.
hey, I was perfectly calm, Scarlet.
mitchell, I think you're in the wrong room.
LOL, sprite!
code yellow, anyone?
Quiche... delightful!
Perhaps, Krista...
wrong universe? But only if code yellow becomes red and is really deserved.
the guy in charge of this site will sweep you out faster than the Red Sox made the Rockies disappear.
LOL, pete.. super analogy!
lol Pete!
thanks. I take it you're not a Rockies fan.
How ever did you guess, pete? LOL
was just thinking that maybe some Rockies fans might object to that... but still the analogy was fun.
GO SOX
The double-A team here is Asheville is a Rockie's farm group, the Tourists, and they are a great bunch of gusy...
*in*
Or, guys...
oh... there are 3 Ns in a row there. Two ways to make double N. Tsssssssssk.
this is a fun but tricky grid..
I'm a Rockies fan and I don't object - once could also have said as quickly as the Rockies made the Diamondbacks, the Phillies and the Padres disappear.
Ditto Aloy!
the placement of the s's especially
yay CadFan! Good counter!
exactly, Aloy.
83 to go
Yep, Cad... the layoff after the amazing wins probably took the impetus away from them.
back for a few
wb carlee
hey sprite
Hi, kattie!
hi carleekat
Perhaps - but you still have to play - and they (we) quite simply got beat in the World Series. However it was an amazing run, they are amazing guys and we love em! (And I was at game 4 of the Series)
wb carlee
Wow, Cad... that is such a thrill!!
Wow! We got the whole flock of sea birds, didn't we?
expensive but oh so worth it!!!
Sure did... it's an avian sanctuary today...
yes, and little brown birds too, Merk
a flying grid
Better than vulgar... except for the cutesy bottom word...
seabirds?... I must have missed something...
Peek at top left and probe, kat
oh... those... working backwards... t's old news....am in s's
thought perhaps I was missing a gull to two
:-)
or two*
help with 1st an7-28 please
against + what we breath
ty nono
Also working backward....all the way up to se!
I can only finish the grid if I go backwards, really...
Hi, Uniquity!
yeap...that where I am uni
Hi Scarlet!
clue for the 10 please
good morning, all
Hello, Fiber Art! How's the kitchen coming along?
Hello, Fiber Art! How's the kitchen coming along?
morning Fiber
hi Fiber Art!
hi there fibre
Oh, that kitchen. The painter is out in his truck talking on his cell phone. he's supposed to be done today. And yesterday. And monday........
I want amortization...
I want to cook a meal!!
people from the land of cowboys, pabtrek
LOL, Fiber... and so it goes with workmen... remember the painter on Murphy Brown...
This is what I get for not wanting to do it myself.
hello everyone! Fiber, you should have had my painter - very quick, neat, and good too.
Oh well, a perfect excuse to take as long as I want playing my favorite game!
You'll never know how you saved your back and shoulders, though... Hi, deb!!
thanks Aloy
Where do you live, debjed??
Lucky you, deb!
Scarlet, what a strange thing to want... do you talk about that to a professional?
ooh, glad you got it pabtrek
It sounds like something you's want from your funeral director....
i had the 7 just needed to extend it
Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, Fiber:) Home of the fighting Illini!
*Belly-laughing now*... sprite, you've uncovered my darkes secrets...
Ha, you are right down the road. Have paint brush, will travel?
*very big evil smile*
Hi Red
WOW, deb... that is some introduction!
fireworks...(collapses with a smile)
woooooo FIREWORKS!
wtg Aloy!!
congrats, aloyisius
and Nono!
wooooot Aloy and Nanette! So VERY well done!
think i mentioned a week ago that i've started to cook and bake. In about two weeks, pumpkin bread, lemon bread, 4 batches cookies, stew, casserole, spag. pie, and a few other things - all good so far
Wow, Aloy... you are a marathoner... *Throws ivy leaf crown on head, offers water and candy*
WOW! Congrats! I don't see me ever finishing!
Huzzah for nono!
Wahoo, Woot and Yowza, Nono!!
I'll take the stew and casserole please. Fedex.

Hi, peri... just in time to congratulate Aloy and Nono!!
WTG Aloy and NoNo!!
wtg, aloy and nono. hi peri
big high fives for all who have finished....i am coming in slowly
Sprite, todays video is very soothing..... nearlly put me to sleep after the grid
Scarlet, you are way ahead of me.. i am sitting here (blush) in my jammies and robe.. really must go do some non-Babble stuff.. enjoyed the company, as usual.. (guess the budding troll disappeared).. bye for now, and Happy Babbling!
now after spending the morning here I really must do some work. Happy babbling everyone
I'm not seeing that at9
bye Aloy
Tata, Nono
ah, wonderful, Nanette!
you spray perfume with it, Fiber
i don't see the at either
Fiber: machines that make tiny particles
LOL, Aloy... make it a memorable day, dear Ohio/Florida lady!!
and just as i said that i saw it
oh, right, that one I have--it's the an I don't have
thanks Aloy
Later, Nono, and well done!
FIBER think small

thanks, Sprite--that did it
yw
Absollutely great clue, sprite...
thanks Scarlet ;)
*absolutely*... I kanknot tipee todaaaie.
lol... I cannot read. I did not even see the double L.
:-)
am off to diner... until later, all, for the last 70...
off to dinner I mean
'Bye sprite... enjoy your dinner!
See?
bye sprite
clue for any of the right i's please
I have angers and "things"
But no iz words yet, pabtrek.
thanks scarlet
there are iz words? asked with horror
still 150 to go, bbl
Yep, a 4/9 & a 5/20
Just monkeyed them
okay, guess i'll look for them
found em
Great!
that leaves me a 100 to find, think i'll go to the list
I have 186... still plodding along happily...
6 to go
131 to go. urf!
100 left. Endless
My beloved has to be the best man in the known universe... he told me I have been working too hard lately and wanted to go out to get us lunch, and what did I want? I thought of the most unhealthy thing in town: Kentucky Fried Chicken... he told me to sit at my puzzle and enjoy myself until he came back with a heart attack in a bag! See me smile?
Oh, man, what a keeper he is!
Don't I know it, Fiber!
oh, definitely keep him Scarlet
I shall, pabtrek... one in a billion-billion!
and send along a couple of wings
You got it, Fiber!!
I think I'll take a little break. I'm putting things on e-bay. I promised myself to put up one thing a day
Later, Fiber, and when we have a smaller puzzle, I want to get some pointers from you about E-bay.
You can e-mail me directly, Scarlet--I'll put my address in my profile. e-bay isn't hard to do, and it cleans out the drawers.
Thank you very much, Fiber... I am a total klutz on the computer, but if you really dummy it down for me, I want to try!
rockets! and what a lovely video although I feel like I am still crashing through the foliage to find words.
Congratulations, bbnaz... way to go!! *Hands towels and Gatorade to finisher*
at the flip it didn't seem possible. especially with those speedy folks who raced right through half of the words in two minutes.............
scarlet, i haven't read the chat log but selling on ebay is fairly simple
congrats bbnaz
anyway, i am off to ride my horse. and will see you all later if nobody needs a clue right now
I think they keep making it simpler and simpler. I think the hardest thing is getting a really good picture.
See you soon, bbnaz, and thank you for the encouragement!
have fun, bbnaz
i sell mostly horse stuff but my sister in law makes a very good living selling stuff on it.
i could sell more if i truly wanted to declutter.
Actually, Fiber Art, Une gave me the idea... it's for the zillions of marigold seeds that I have from a highly successful garden (s) this year...
I sure don't make a living, but I'm too cheap to give things to charity if I can wring a few dollars from them. Marigold seeds sound like a winner. I don't know if anyone sells plant materials
remember some countries won't let seeds from other countries over their borders, scarlet. But I think thats mainly Aus and NZ
well, (redeeming myself) I also give some good stuff to St. Vinnie's
Apparently some do, Fiber... $2 for 25 seeds, and the buyer pays the postage.
Wow, way to go!
I know it's a tough law, Atalante... we had some spider problems because of smuggled flora...
I have scads of buttons and beads I'd like to unload
I'd just check out where you can and can't send, then you won't ever end up with any problems with angry customes!!
DACHEF if you are out there, just a friendly hello!
You ladies are going to change my universe, you know... taking me into an entirely different world...
We're all about spreading our wings. And hips.
Thank you for a very wise tip, Atalante. I'll take all the common sense that I can garner.
ebay is fab :)
Beloved! Lunch!
yay KFC!
You wouldn't say that if you had done a Hygiene course in catering, Atalante.
me7,52 please
I can just taste it from here. Enjoy
oh gosh, I'm sure!
Medic! See you all soon!
Now how do you clue me7/52?
enjoy Scarlet
that is a good question Haz, especially if you don't have it yet :)
just what I was thinking pab
fireworks for me. much bigger grid today, for a change.
me, a shortened canonised one, a vowel, then take the French and from Miss Jones (Michael Douglas's wife)
congrats Angel
I've never understood....why doesn't mens could as a word?!?!?! mens room, anyone? Grrrr
Apostrophe Uniquity.
Haz, is there another way you could clue that me?
wonderful clue!
I could swear i've used words that required apostrophes before. or maybe i just made them up, silly monkeys.
Or, me, shortened canonised one (think Joan or Christopher), a vowel, first two letters of the African country that appears in the grid today.
Thanks Atalante!
nice clue, worked it out, thanks Haz
You're welcome.
Thanks Haz!!
Glad it worked, bubba.
hint for the me 8 please
It's the plural of me7/52.
second an6/18 please
an6/18 - against, the beginnings of Mr Garfunkel
have you finished, Haz?
an6,18 against + I am you **e
thanks Haz
Yes, I have.
an8,45 please
an8/45 - against a French mother.
Thanks Haz, again
oh good, then we really can swamp you with clue requests :P
You're welcome - it's pluralled as well.
nim
Fire away, Atalante.
oops !!!
Hello Karys!
hello Haz....and everyone :)
How are you today? Does smiley cat reflect your feelings?
hi karys
the second ma6/21 please
got 83 to find and gone to the list 'cos my friend is coming for supper, hubby away this evening, and yes, Haz, been a good day thank you.
ma6/21 - begin with a male for three, then what you want jelly to do, backwards. (it's also a term in tennis)
still haven't got the me with the canonised clue
Actually don't know why I'm rushing, it's a state of mind isn't it !!!
** teresa, ** jude...
thanks again Haz
The canonised one is a saint. Use the normal abbreviation for two of the letters.
It's the fever of finding words, Karys.
Hasn't it been nice to have a good big grid today ?
ty
Or try, me, an American pimple backwards, finish off with a vowel.
American pimples that should be.
It's been great, Karys. I was pining for a large grid.
Me too, it gets to be a disappointment when the little ones keep appearing.
I like the baby ones!
Aaahh...Ata :)
they are usually quite tricksy
Is anyone else finding babble to be lagging quite a bit?
Any sign of FMitch this afternoon?
They are, but I love it when the words just fly out !
not a sign
I have only just returned Haz, so I havn't seen here.
Karys, have you seen Atalante's icon?
I just wondered if she had finished. She was going great guns this morning.
need three more z's. have country and plural and lemon ze** and plural
Do you have the acne symptom?
LOL...I have now !!
greek z and plural
ty
You're also lacking ze4/9 and its plural.
ty
Good one, isn't it? The icon, I mean.
first me6 please
A singular spot, not a pimple. (me6)
Curses upon that vile and blasted volcano!!!!!!
Settle, petal. What has it ever done to you, except provide you with points in babble?
I never never never see it! It doesn't matter that I've already put in an4!
Not many points, if it comes to that.
Then you must teach yourself a rhyme to get it into your head.
Never never never!!!!!!
*subsides, panting*
thanks Haz
Soothing thoughts are wafting your way....
I apologize for the eruption.
Or, if that doesn't work - pull yourself together, woman!
hello everyone :)
good pun :P
that's okay Vicuan, been there, done that
Which is possibly what the zi4/9 should say to every teenager.
Just what I need, to be reminded on a daily basis just how stupid I am. *sigh*
Hello raelite.
*Vicuna that is
It keeps you humble, Vicuna. Embrace the reminders.
That's okay, pabtrek. When I'm feeling vacuous, that's a fine way to spell my name!
lol
Humble schmumble. I'm aiming for pompous conceit and snootery.
You've put yourself on a pedestal and you're going to stay there?
And I'll stomp on the fingers of anyone who tries to climb up here with me.
need clue for last 9 - have at and we
So, Atalante needs to get her own pedestal of smugness?
Happy Hump Day, fellow babblers.
okay everybody, if we all rush Vicuna at the same time one of us will get her down :)
at9/90 - pl of at8/70 that squirs perfume
an9/60 - being the plural of an8/45 - against, French mother.
But honestly, pabtrek, would you really want to be on the same pedestal as someone who doesn't see et4 even though she sees an4?
good morning/afternoon, fellow babbleonians :)
i don't get the french mother part
Oh, sorry, I thought you said you had an. Sigh.
sure Vicuna, I did the same thing today
See, pabtrek, you want to stay far far away frm this pedestal.
French mother is also the English word for slight, (me4/5)
Hello cybernan. We're deciding whether Vicuna deserves her own pedestal or not.
Well, okay, then, come on up! =)
I'd say so. Just not as high as my one
and what has vicuna done to deserve her pedestal?
hi all - just thought i would pop in to see what the grid is like - it's a big 'un - i may live to regret this!!
She just wants one so that she can feel superior.
dive in denny and worry about it later!
Cyber, it isn't what I've done to deserve it. It's simply that I have declared myself superior.
Hello Denny - it's a big grid but pretty civilised.
ah -- in that case, we should all have our own pedestal!
*bows low in humble admiration of the pedestaled one*
So Vicuna has her pedestal of superiority, Atalante has one of smugness.
* whines* But cybernan, if everyone gets a pedestal then mine won't seem so special!
life is tough
There are bound to be degrees of pedestalhood.
Shawnee, it is becoming clear to me that you are a person of rare judgement.
scared of heights, I will stay down here and marvel
Is that a good thing?
Ah, but if you got your pedestal sunk into the ground, Shawnee, you could still have one.
It'd be like the iceberg effect.
At least your feet would be up out of the mud that way.
Back again, sorry, phone
I shall call mine a "shroom" feels much safer
sa8 please
Karys, do you feel you deserve a pedestal? You could have the 'Married on Christmas Day' one.
Oh...that would be nice Haz, yes please, do I have to put it anywhere special ?
sa8 adds a couple of letters to the sa6/18 - ends up with what you catch fish with.
The Smug One is awfully silent. Could she have tumbled off?
The pedestal can be wherever you want, Karys.
guess i don't have that sa6 yet
Centre of front garden perhaps ?
Yes, Atalante is VERY quiet.
just being smug
sa6/18 - first letters of Abraham's wife (three), then three letters at the beginning of the opposite of junior.
perhaps she is looking as to where she can place her pedestal
I only meant to shove her pedestal a little lower. I didn't mean to bury it.
If the front garden wouldn't be too draughty, Karys, it sounds like a plan.
thanks Haz
Bury it ?.... Vicuna, what did she do ?
You're welcome, pabtrek.
she's just jealous
Oh, nothing, nothing, here's Atalante now. See, she sufferred no permanent injuries!
There's a lot of it about Ata
sa8 sounds like a cheap version of french dressing!
I think Smiley cat looks very smug !
had to work again, but got that an9. thank you.
hi all, back for a little while
We always make you work, debjed!
Hello sprite.
Ata and Vicuna misbehaving again, Haz?
I don't have the we9...does it go from the direction ?
ai 6/18?
not work to get the word, real work at my job:) it gets in the way of chatting and finding words
it does, Karys. Guys from that direction.
Hello there Sprite, are you feeling better ?
Not so much misbehaving as declaring themselves smug and superior. How to win friends and influence people....
How dare you question our smug and superior ways, you me4 Sprite, you!
(Like that, for example)
ai6/18 - add a period of non-work or leisure.
Thank you Sprite, I couldn't make it work earlier, will have another go now.
me4 sprite? ME4 sprite??? There ain't such thing as a me4 sprite. We are all glorious beings, we sprites.
ty, haz
Yeah, well I'm a glorious VICUNA!!!
a little, Karys. And very very tired... must hold on a bit longer though, still have a workshop to attend tonight. But tomorrow is a very quiet day, god bless.
We'd better put in an order for a Pedestal of Spritedom, in that case.
(Hmmm, doesn't really work the same, somehow...)
well, yes, I guess you are, Vic, you are. Not that that is saying much, but... well, ok, you are that.
I don't know, I stood up when you said it, Vicuna.
*humbly bowing low once again*
Is tonight essential Sprite ?
lol
we don't need those, Haz. We fly. We hover. We soar.
And Spangle bowed as well.
I, umm... graze...
There, you can always depend on Spangle
it is a course of 6 nights and I will be missing the last 2, Karys. I feel like missing another one is a bit too much.
So, an air safety manual, perhaps? An introduction to the rudiments of air traffic control?
But gloriously, of course.
also not necessary, Haz. All make way for us, as they should, so there is never any danger.
could i please have a clue for the 1st an7/28 - monkey fingers are not getting it!
That's a shame Sprite, I think a little 'me' time might have been a good idea.
(Goes in a corner and pets Spangle.)
I agree, Karys. But sometimes it is just not to be... all things considered I better go.
Denny: against the stuff we breathe
an7/28 - use the against word, combine it with what we breathe, or what sprite soars through.
ohhhhh a personal clue from Haz :D I love it!
nm got it now!!
spaaaaaaaangle. we all love spangle
thanks tho Haz
Glad you like it!
Perhaps you will just have to look forward to a little time tomorrow Sprite !
Denny, you KNOW it is rude to say never mind just after we clued you, don't you :)
Spangle waves acknowledgement of the adoration.
Maybe Spangle is the one who shuld be on a pedestal.
I am, Karys! Thanks for caring *hug*
DoG
last si7 please
Spangle is definitely the smallest, so that would be a good reason.
and I think Spangle outsmarts most of you too.
my cat ate some onions that i had picked out of my stew. they are toxic to dogs and cats. i work at an animal hospital and didn't know that. just passing it along to other animal lovers.
I don't always join in, but I do think about you all !!
Husband very clear that dogs stay on the ground. Except when she worms her way onto the sofa beside him.
And apparently Sprite is more desrving of my pedestal of pompous conceit and snootiness!
oh yes. no onions!
You feel like a full member of our chat circle though, Karys!
We had a dog that loved pickled onions !
what else is the grid against besides french mothers?
si7/48 - a superlative relating to the comparative before it.
is your kitty okay deb
that gives new meaning to bad breath in cats. poor thing
It doesn't approve of bretahing, either.
Oh yes Sprite, I know you are all there too !
breathing
thanks Haz, feel silly not seeing that
It's against oxygen or what we breathe, cybernan and against the beginnings of Mr Garfunkel. Can't bear to hear that name....
yes, they told me onions affect the red blood cells and to watch for lethargy and paleness but he is pink and lively:)
not much, nan. Only the stuff we breathe and the letter R. All of them.
No problem, pabtrek.
glad to hear it deb
Wonder if being pickled is not so bad ?
Hello everyone
hi peri, back to finish?
Hello peri.
Hello peri
Are you getting pickled, Karys? Don't drive anywhere!
don't know about the pickled onions.
I think a bit of onion is ok, well, Hobbit's never suffered from eating bits of onion in spaghetti bolognaise. just not a concentrated block of onion
hi pabtrek, will try, still have 150 to find
want us to pickle you and find out, Karys?
Spangle has eaten onion without suffering anything worse than more fragrant...... odours.
Onions, only onions, ( and red cabbage )
Or should it be flagrant odours?
garlic produces interesting odours too
Dogs mostly produce 'fragrant' odours
fragant odours look to me like a double thingie, Haz
*fragrant
(I think she measn redundancy)
or means it. whatever.
LOL...has everyone been on the wine already ?
Yes, I think the fragrance bit was said tongue in cheek.
we're all getting pickled
an oxymoron?
Karys, what can you mean?
(Note 2 slef: learm too tupe,)
I wish, Karys!
can't remember the name. Not even in dutch. Double sided opening port-a-plisses doors.
I wish to be pickled as well, but must abstain
An oxymoron - a particularly stupid bovine?
sounds like Vicuna got into the wine
Have some chilling as we speak Ata, if you would like a glass
that's it, Haz, thanks
No, I can be stupid without assistance.
Now that's a favourite word Haz !
hi all!
Hi Owl
Hello TO!
Hello TO
hi temple
howdy temple
Hello, TO.
oooo lovely Karys!
Enjoy Ata !!
hey TOwl :)
Isn't this nice....here we all are !!!
third wa6/30 please
hi TO
All we need is for FMitch to STOP WORKING.
Yes...where is she ?
we can blame FMItch for not being here with us though
I'm usually racing around doing the evening meal at this time
FMitch gets her very own pedestal of blame.
where is carlee kitty hiding?
We can Sprite, as usual
right - done the e's so off to bath and bed the kids - hopefully will bbl
wa6/30 - begin with the international conflicts (four) end with French 'the' or the first two letters of Mr De Vinci
really neat shuttle landing -- talk about a smooth touch down!
good luck Denny
thanks Haz
See you Denny.
Bye, Denny.
You're welcome.
bit like the nearest town to us Haz
*pokes head into chatlog* pried myself away from work long enough to eat lunch -- hows everyone this afternoon?
thanks Haz for that wa6
Hello there, Eva. We're grand!
hi Eva. we're all having a good time.
Hello Eva, very good, thank you !
The wa6 can be extended into the person who etc.
Well, the former governor of Illinois, George Ryan, 73 years old, is off to federal prison on a corruptions charge... tsk.
everyone is schnockered but me, Eva, jump in
does the wa7 and 8 that follow build off that 6
Hiya Scarlet
Still proclaiming his innocence, of course...
ah, you anticipated my question, thanks Haz
No pedestal for George Ryan...
Thank you Haz :)
got the "against what we breathe", thanks, but stumped by 6 and 7 following it
Yes, pabtrek - make it the person who does and plural.
~!~!FIREWORKS!~!~
ive already cracked for the day -- in a meeting earlier, i reached that mental state where everything was funny...
Yay for Kristine
nan: against R and against Rs.
wtg KristineN!
cybernan, against, then the first letters of the Camelot King and plural.
Congrats Kristine !!!
Yay for KristineNas!
Wow well done I never get anywhere near when there are this many words to find
You didn't laugh out loud, did you, Eva?
ty vm
A cell with three other inmates, working several hours a day at $ .14 per hour; up at six a.m., and lights off at 11 p.m. Not the good life...
ty vm
Oh lovely Eva....that's such a good feeling !
Haz -- i completely did...almost the whole time.... but thankfully, it wasnt a super-serious meeting, and the manager is a total goofball himself...
Hi, peri... how are you doing on this? Hi, Deeha and Yahoo for Kristine!!
What did he not do, Scarlet?
Hi everyone. just a very quick hello.
Time for a nap after that one ! gl e1
*waves fast back at Marmar*
hello Marmar
bye Kristine
Vicuna, I have to thank you for the recipe on your bio!
thanks sprite - congrats Kristine
bye Kristine
It's impossible sometimes to stop laughing once you start. Did the tears come? I always know I've lost it once I start crying.
Doing pretty well, Scarlet, 121 left, how about you?
Oh, did you like it, Marmar?
Made it for mother-in-laws birthday and it is dreamy!!!
Oh Haz...it's ages since I've done that !
no crying, but i was definitely out of breath!
He didn't bribe other officials to guarantee contracts, construction and elections' results, Haz.
Stand even higher on that pedestal of superiority, Vicuna!
and i am done, thanks for all the help, will try to come back later to help clue, thanks again
I'm glad I didn't post it in vain, Marmar! =)
Ah, so now he's not going to learn the error of his ways.
Congrats pabtrek !!
Congratulations pabtrek!
yay for pabtrek
Oh, that old pedestal, Haz? i gave that up long ago. Pedestals are so five minutes ago. Everybody has them now.
Yay for pabtrek!
well done pabtrek
Of course not... he's innocent. Yahoo for pabtrek... way to go!! :-)
I'm into thrones now.
thanks everyone
Pedestals are passe (with an acute accent). I'll be sure to pass the message on.
oh, vicuna what about a throne on a pedestal
75 to go -- time to change my icon!
I don't know pabtrek, don't you think that might be a little ostentatious?
I don't know, Pabtrek, a throne on a pedestal might raise safety issues.
never seen much in them in the first place, really. They are SO beneath me.
yes, but it's got to be safer than standing on one
hi all,not long started,only 89 so far so i'll keep plodding along til teatime.ty for some of the clues so far aswell!
not for a sprite
hi lill
Vicuna, I made that truffle pie too... and it was beyond fabulous... I snitched the recipe from ch1212's bio, but if it came from you, I bow in gratitude!! :-)
Huh, sprite, to me it looks like you're peeking out from a bush, not soaring about all gloriously!
hi shawnee
Merciful goodness, I've just realised the time. I'm off to the kitchen. Taking care not to leave onions around, we can do without flagrant odours.
that's only because you caught me in a very weak moment, Vic!
There we go -- new icon more in keeping with the people present, myself included!
bye haz
Farewell, Haz!
bye haz!
bye Haz *hug*
bye haz, enjoy your food!
Until later, Haz!
bye haz
Byee!
loony.... loony... *compares to a sprite* Nah, don't see it.
how about the olympic part sprite?
The papparazzi are such demonhounds, aren't they sprite, snapping pictures that one time when you happen to be grubbing about in the shrubbery...
we are all olympic. If not in babbling, then in chatting. So yes, olympic works for me :)
taking a short break, bbs

Murder M's!
AM 4/5!!
I cannot believe ar4man is not a word
me's, to be specific, actually
But, wi7/48 is!
I have only 7 me words so far... I bet there are many many more
Is that a man who is one or a man who likes them?
I think a man that likes them... though one does not prevent the other.
'Sokay, sprite, I only have 12 of 48! Urf... Your guess is as good as mine, Vi.
I have opened the list and discovered that there are supposed to be 14 me's!
argh! Vic, that is bad.
Morever, I have all the other m's, just not enough me's.
me, me, me!
just got a look at the me's I'm missing! --- have photography duty at the hospital in an hour, so will leave them for later--- see you in a couple of hours if you're still around, if not --- a demain!
you, you, you... it is always you! No wonder I cannot find the me's.
a demain, nan, bonne nuit!
Goodbye, cybernan.
For a moment, I thought you were cluing an ME word as photography duty at a hospital, nan... wow...
bye cybernan
bye all, duty calls. *hugs* the crew and I'll Be Back
389! OMG! It's a big grid today
Later, nan and sprite.
aha! a chicken pock!
Goodbye, glorious sprite!
a clue for me6/21 please..the FIRST one?
bye sprite
That's it, me6/21 - the chicken pock!
or, if you prefer, a mump
I never heard of that in the singular form, but thank you, vi!

Vicuna can u elaborate please?

Thanks again for the recipe!

I'm just having a good, slow journey of discovery, peri... I'm at 241 found so far, and it is so relaxing! :-)
That still leaves 148, so I am in for a good goofing off afternoon!
I love bigger grids but can only work on them for short periods of time, I am liking this one
going to read for a while
have fun,off for tea.see you later
G'd afternoon Babblers! Got 63 this mornign before work. Looks like a marathon. yea!
You usually take a time-out every 20 minutes or so... very smart!
hi lori
Hi, LoriP... it's a fun-one!
Indeed it appears so Scarlet! G'd afternoon lilliann
Okay, Lori, it's fourth and eleven... the quarterback throws a Hail Mary... GO!
Okay, but did Peyton throw it or Tom? ;-)
Our Tommy-Boy... of course!! :-)
Methinks I'll get the re st of the re's out of the way first, then i'll enjoy the grid.
Best conquer the M words whilst at it, Lor.... royal pain in the tuchus.
***denies there are voluminous m words.*** :)
Fine, dear, whatever makes you go to your happy place, but, and I think I've heard this before, "Reality Bites"
*** ouch ***
*Rushing betadine and balm to Nova Scotia*
Ha ha! Evil re's are conquered!
You rock, LoriP!!
If only...
clue for the second en5/10 please
EN + Spanish "aunt"
entia
crap sorry wrong box!
Yep, that's the one, crp!!
haha
umm thanks btw
Hey, quiet there missy! No comments from the peanut gallery uniquity! :)
lol crp
crp made a booboo
Since you have 388 more words to go, I don't think you should be penalized, crp!
lol
Unless you do it again... then we sic the Babble Storm Team on ya... LOL
i promise to be good
*Busy carving that promise into the marble halls of justice*
Please, in the future enter words that I don't have.... :)
you have a deal lorip
when i finally get a word i get so excited i lose control
How about corpulent and gamete... they aren't in the grid, but I thought I'd toss them out!! *Ducks*
***You can run, but you can't hide Scarlet***
*Urf* Hey, ref, she chop-blocked me... waaaaa... mommy....
Nope, I'm the Colts, i don't get penalized......
Yeah, right... what a stinking crew... Divine redemption for all Colts... *Barf*
hi all
I think I'm losing yardage on the me's.
Hi, beth... welcome to fun day at the old corral.
G'd afternoon beth
You'll end up punting soon, Lor.
Watch out for Scarlet. She's rowdy today....
Yep... feeling my oats... had KFC for lunch and I'm feelin' mean now... LOL
i've never been here for a big grid before how is it?
It's really fun, beth... be patient and try everything... it usually works out just fine.
i just had a bag of chips right up there with KFC
If you haven't encountered such a biggie before, try using the list when you have exhausted all logical options... you'll be fine. Chips are good for high blood pressure...works every time! lol
Hi all again....clue please fro ra7/8 combo?
G'd afternoon Flask
only problem is my fingers keep sliding off the keys
Hi LoriP
Hi, dear Flask! {{{Mega-hugs}}} Not there yet, Ms. Scotland!! Keeper of My Dario!

LOL, beth.

Oh thanks Babrab...and hi to you....
Nice, BR-r. Thank you, and good day to thee.
hello peoples
HI BR
7 that start with z and 23 more in the grid that use a one
thank you BabbleRabble for that clue
i calmly switched boxes to type in :)
Babrab, can u elaborate on the clothes clue please?
Clue for the we 10?
we9 is we7 + ** (an ending for one who is) and we10 is the plurel
ra 7 -- water from the sky, ***n; and concrete: ce****; pl
thanks BR
Like cowboys are we10s.
we9 & 10, not Oriental
Hello pida and amelu!!
*waves* Hi there!
TY amelu, and *note to pida: love your icon pic
*waving from a distance*... deep in grid-world.
Thanks!
Hi, Jayde!!
I understand the not Oriental because I have the we 7,44, but I'm not making the leap of faith to the we 8 and 9.
Hi Scarlet and everyone........I snuck on at work for the first time, and it feels like I'm playing hookey !!!!
Oops, I think I turned the wrong way at the pass. Giddyup
I came back for 2nds... deep in the murkiness, myself... LOL Merk, dija get 'em?
LOL, Merk... you are not playing hookey if you are babbling... there is a special dispensation for us... we are *special*... LOL
And you can tell your boss that when he catches you and threatens to "can" you.
And we will testify on your behalf, pida!
Yea, I'm a cowgirl.
we 7 -- is a movie genre; 9 and ten are people
phantom: magpiety
*Fireworks* ... I can't say that it was a hard grid ... there have much harder ones ... but I did learn some new words.
A raven saying "mea culpa", BR-r?
Congratulations, Merk... no, not hard... just fun!
congrats, Merk
yay Merk!
yay merk!
garrulous
I like it!
clues for me7 and me 8? Please.....
i thought i was doing well, got 205 - just checked clues and there are so many left :(
Hey, Fordy... you had your first fireworks on October 15th~
Sprite has found the most relaxing videos this week.
me 8 is a woman of mixed ancestry. It uses the big tile near the end.
It has the same first three letters as the three words above it, if you have them.
Did you get it, TmirandA? It's hard to clue.
Belly full, raedy to do battle again. G'd afternoon Babblers!
Hi, Lori, everyone seems to have their nose in the grid right now.
LOL Merk, that's where my nose is going too.... :)
I'm lazy and have not had lunch yet. I thought I woud finish the grid first.
Bye-bye, Lori's nose....\
i'm trying to figure out that me,8. The woman of mixed ancestry ...
It's actually not a bad grid. I've enjoyed it. There are a few hard/strange words with a z inside.
OK ... take the messed. I messed up. Spell that word phonetically with four letters and you have the first four letters of the word.
TY, that did it
got it! thank you merk
I got it too, thanks Merk. Good clue.
yw. It was hard to clue.
back again, 67 left
Any other clues needed before I leave?
now I am stuck in the RE words :(
I've been all over the grid, peri... if I am stuck, I just move on... I can't torture myself with just one letter at a time...
I jump around too, Scarlet, but I just jumped into the RE's :-)
Not yet, Merk, but thank you! :-)
LOL, peri... here's a lifesaving dictionary...
It floats!
Okay, that om 6 was weird. I worry when I type in crazy stuff, and it works....
You don't listen to Dr. Oz on Oprah, then, Lori? That was the first time I heard it...
I don't do Oprah..........:/
clue for the om6?
I only listen when Memet Oz is on... he is one of the few "media" doctors who speaks clearly and non-condescendingly about the body.
o + that word challenged my *****l health..... :)
LOL, Lori... *belly laugh*
thanks
yvw :-)
By the way, deb, good job on all the cooking you've been doing lately... so nice to see! *hug* :-)
i need another n from the left column

they should be!!
So declared. Motion passed! New Woman Law!

jumping to your defense, Scarlet :D
oops. meant need to purchase leasH. *sigh* trying to get a few more words before going to pick up said teen from school...
Okay, Nuttie... "What is the true meaning of life?"
You are a true defender, sprite!

hmph. you sound like a squirrel.... *twitter twitter*

Impossible, sprite... I hear your heart...

no Jill -- the other stidkid. Not playing well with others. Conveniently forgetting to do assignments. You know the drill.
Hahahhahahaaa... it's the Knut and Knight Fight
now stid, don't act like the victim, you've been on twice...fool you once shame on me, fool you twice shame on you
very low. Hi knight. He might as well have pointed you to the loo, nut... saying: "even though it says ladies, feel free to en5"
Just put the seat down...
somehow when knight calls me special, it doesn't seem complimentary
HHi
yes, but put me on again, and it's fool the audience...
HUGS
me5.12 me + **oopy cartoons are funny + vowel
hi lady
knight, did you see i'm recording in a little bit here and how to submit the questions now?
simply being adolescent, stid?
Hi, Lady!
hi lady
deb land formations in arizona
Hello this is weird it seems that most of you are still here from 8 hours agao
Hi Knight
yes nut, but knight has no questions this time
probably, sprite. but doesn't make the current experience much fun even if it's "normal"
lynxxx, I love you forever
thank you, got the me's
are the grids completely random, completely hand generated, or randomly generated with some rules?
too bad...
try "again" in stead of "still", lady
hi lady
i've been here since i started work at 8:30AM
I know, stiddie *hugs the co mother*
randomly generated Mark, with I think some sort of exception so there aren't repeats.
I understand completely random Mark
Hi anyway Sprite
Do you feel better Sprite
the last option, MarkDF. They are randomly generated, and too small grids are automatically cancelled.
I don't feel at all anymore, lady, way too overstressed and tired. I am sitting, babbling, without any clue of why or for how long.
how small is too small sprite?
morning everyone !!
there can be a too-small grid?
if you have to ask...........
hey prezzie baby!!!
Awww HuGSSSSSS
I don't exactly know, nut. Grids with no words for sure. But I think not under 30, or not under 25.
Mr PResss heelllo

Hi all. I'm back for my remaining 73.
wise lady, that Cath. I might have finished by now if I had been half as smart.
wb Jac! *hug*
HI JAC
*hugs* Sprite.
Hi, Herin.
i missed the ne4,4 goose all day!!
How are you Jac?
Oh dear i have ignored the cat :9
Jac has the perfect babble chair in her flickr!
hi jac! ooops, I seem to have mislaid the camera (I am so dead!)
poor mrP! Just handle the hugs and the kisses, darling, and forget about the camera!
don't ignore the kitty and don't feed him onions, they're toxic. found that out yesterday after mine ate some.
never knew that, deb. I learned today from you.
I'm tired, Herin. It's been a busy day.
0.
Deb Onions dont exist in this house. I have learned from Peri that bleach is bad. I have taken to cleaning the tub with bi carb and vinegar.
How is the kitty now Deb
and it includes wild plants in the onion family too, if one's cat / dog likes roaming in the woods
HI ATAAAAAAAA
oh, he didn't get enough to affect him but they can mess with the red blood cells and delivery of oxygen, can be fatal. yes, bleach is bad stuff
hiiii!
Oh i didnt know that
omg, I still have re's to find.
Our house is spotless and i dont use any hard chemicals
howdy folks!
hey Takuma! Good to see you.
hi takuma
It's Takuma!
my house is never spotless.
mom taught me about using baking soda
HI Takuma
Hi All...my house is spotful
because I'm sitting here!
I spend 30 min a day cleaning or doing laundry or some deathly boring house stuff
hi Krista
My mon taught me that there are more interesting things to do than clean house.
lovely grid -- perfect thing to keep me busy, as the last remnants of this hangover dissipate
I love your mom, Vic
YAHHHHHH Duran Duran are back woot
my house is pretty small, and i'm the only to mess it up, so doesn't take long to clean it up
.
coffee, Takuma!
My poor cousin lost her box of Duran Duran Stuff when she moved
ra7,32
ra7/32 - fancy word for fancy clothes
clothes, deb
Hallo Sprite, Goedenavond
ah, it was a question from deb! ;)
heh, I've been liberally applying coffee for awhile ;)
oh no way infern!! someone stole it for sure! she couldn't have misplaced that!
wow Krista, wat goed!
Mr Pres it was a whole box more than likely she misplaced it in the divorce
*pours Takuma a fresh cuppa*
takuma, coffee is a wonderful idea! going out now.... bbshortly
Lol, Herin!
sorry sprite, guess i'm lazy:) and only have a half hour left on computer
That about covers my Dutch, Sprite, except for you're welcome, please, and excuse me! :)
I have the vinyl version of Wild Boys which did you know was the most expensive video clip made until Micheal Jackson made Thriller
and Simon LeBon nearly died making it
I need help with my last word. HOpe it is not a fish. An 7/28 right after the four-letter Latin word for against. Please let me come a a restful end
My cousin rocks she lives in Tassie but she so much like me. I really miss her. Someone i know got to touch Simon LeBons leg when they were a kid
an7/28 - against the stuff we breathe
I saw them DD in 1984 - thought I was going to have great seats but had to lean around a speaker the whole time to see anything! The waterwheel incident, Jac?
wow, Vicuna, that was it. Thanks and fireworks
finally got the clothes clue, thank you guys.
Yay for inge! Gratuliere!
Way to go, Inge!!
congrats inge
woohoo, inge!!!
Ok since when did DD get old and well hot (hides under desk)
holy moly -- cognacs, inge!
lol Krista, I really appreciate! And wat goed means: that is great!
Sorry, I said Jac but meant Ata
wtg inge!
my dad is taxi driver and often gives simon le bon a lift ..... he too embarassed that his daughter (me ) was a fan when i was like 8 i now 35
oh yes, the dreaded water wheel incident! (sorry, I'm drawing and babbling at the same time)
hey sprite, would you happen to have a clue for the ra6,30? ;)
he is a very nice man
Thanks, Sprite. I had a Dutch friend years ago, so tried to learn a little. I have trouble with the gutterals, as in Gouda. :)
found the camera, and have some pics of the new lounge!
Squidy thats when id get the autograph or hid in your dads trunk if he was getting him
cool, mrp!!
excellent prezzie
i tell all the time to get it for me but he just says that is not very professional
Ditto what herin said, squidgy. You're never too old to be a fan.
Is he nice, did your Dad say?
he gets all sorts of celebs in his cab as he works in london and some are not too nice but simon is always a good guy
OH dear random factoid of the day. Justin Timberlake wrote and produced some of the new albums songs. He was born the year of their first album
yeah he said he is very polite
My husband's uncle is a cabbie in London, too, in the west end. That would be crazy if they knew each other.
help with the ra6,30 Please
lol
ra6/30 - least cooked
Oh, he just told me most cabbie's are independent there. Most of them work for companies, here.
yeah he often works in london he does alot of radio work that is how he gets the celebs as he often dropping em off to studios and record company head quarters
yeah he does both
he works for radio taxis
black cab?
clues please for sa8/40 and sa7/28 please?
I have to admit I get starstuck. I don't want to be that kind of person, but I am. I'd have to ride along with Dad if I were you.
thank you vicuna
the G and ch are tough in dutch for people who speak english or french indeed
make that starstruck, good gosh
thanks for that ra6
sa8/40 - a fabric, Chinese respiritory epidemic + vowel + fish-catching equipment

HI Helen
thanks for the clues Vicuna..and sprite!
hi myme
:D
Hi Helen, I haven't seen you for a while.
hiya vic & flask!
hey helen and mymew
ah, thanks -- thought that was part of the spelling clue, vic
yawn. going to bed and I'll finish this in the morning I think before the flip!
Hi anyone i missed while watching duran duran
Hello, helenk! I was checking on dinner when you came in. (Experimental green tomato pie.)
Goodnight, Ata!
Yum - sounds good.
krista - life has been dragging me down, haven't felt chatty & i just got me a cold in the last couple of hours - runny eyes, nose, etc -blah, blah, blah :)
Oh, yuck, helenk. =(
sprite ! what are you doing here at this hour?
niters ata
errrrr helen... babbling!
good night everyone, thanks for all the help. 70 left but gotta go
Goodnight, debjed.
oh, i see sprite :)
bye
niters deb
Sorry about your dog. Sounds like he's improving, though!
krista - thanks, yes! i'm so glad he's responding so well, it's really amazing how well he's adapted
new icon for today's theme... Holland had the most beautiful paper money, before the euro spoiled it all.
So he can walk and everything?
How come Holland didnt revolt on the Euro like England did?
walks, runs, goes up & down stairs, as soon as the pain patch came off he was back to his old alpha male self!
it just was a helluva day, helen, and I have been babbling in shifts... with a huge grid like this, it is a miracle I am getting it done at all. 48 left!
go sprite go!
only 191 left here
economical reasons, I think, lady. We had a poll about it, most of the dutch people did NOT want the euro... so we got it anyway.
I never thought of money as beautiful, but that is really pretty, Sprite!
I am glad, helen! Yay for Dog!
Pops head up to say Hello to Hell. 42 left here.
i am having a little lag here, anyone else having trouble - must be cause of the size, i think
That's really amazing, Helen. Hey jac.
is there 26 or 27 RE words please
if you could see it in detail, Krista.... The lighthouse 250 gulden bill even has a poem written on it, in tiny tiny letters.
thanks sprite & hiya jacs!!
helen: yes, with big grids like this, that can happen.
does anyone have a clue for the first an7/28 just below the an4/4 please
first re5/18, anyone?
can someone tell me what a spanish holy person is called??
my dad collected coins, so when he died, i got them & the people who create coins & bills are true artists
hey grant
Help
they really are, helen!
Chistmas sa with diff last vowel
thanks grant!
grant.......... re + not old but ***
I suspect clues for the 10-letter word have been asked for often -- could someone point me to an approx time to look it up in the log?
grant stitch again
the colors are so nice...all we have is green green green
which I wouldn't complain about if I had large piles of it
sorry wrong clue
HELPPPPage please is there 26 or 27 RES plesse
tak - we 10 - people from a certain direction (not left but like left)
27 re's
those money bills were colourfull and very artistic. The sunflower (50 gulden) just always made me smile. The 100 gulden bill had a beautiful bird on it. And the lighthouse was the most beautiful I have ever seen.
beth I think that is one of two other5/19's
Thanks
Hi Krista!! back for my last 4 words
or 18's...
yup it is grant
Aloha Babblers!

hiya fran
aloha fran!
hi sprite! you look different
hi takuma! hi hk!
hi fran

money talks, Fran :)
i have to find a new babble strategy, i try to get 1/2 way at the flip but then when i come back to it the next day i don't remember what i put in so i waste alot of time with double entries, either that or go straight to the list
brb, crisis with the kids
10s Guru: against the stuff we breathe
FRANIIIIIIIIIEEEEEE
Hi Fran!
heh, hk -- I have exactly that problem, as well, when I play after flip
an7,26 against the stuff we breathe
An7 begins with contrary prefix and concludes as in an*****craft guns
bl, time for dinner

Just saw your hello below, sorry!

Is there any RE 8s please
Still loking for that re5/18, first of 3 such...

hi fran
I'm doing my turn now, Fran
hi mynewtard
sorry I am a bit frustrated now.......... will not happen again
No re8's

Aloha, Fran.
Vicuna you're a lifesaver. Now I can make supper.
Always glad to advance the cause of food, grant!
Many thanks
I'm in a hurry because I could actually use the 3x tile! Cheap thrills, I tell ya, Fran.

hi jilli!
It's been a bit busy here
beautiful, isn't it, jilli. And the euro is SO boring to look at.
hi jill!
And that;s "lovely"
jerm
Hello, Jilli
We have coloured bills here too but not as pretty as yours. Americans call it Monopoly money.
I am about to reboot or strangle the pc
I'd go for the strangling, lady, much more satisfactory.
Sorry my Aussie bill is so squished
I think going with color would stimulate the economy. It has to be more fun to spend.
lol jilli... I see... but I love the bills to be colourful. Money should be beautiful :)
lady, your origami bill is fun!
hi jili do you have directions for how to do icons for dummies? i think it was herin who told me you might .
Thanks Jill.
our bills were very very hard to counterfeit, btw...
finally found my way back -- hello everyone :)
it was me beth
I dont like money so i thought i would do origami

hi nan!
i will post my email in bio it will be only thing there;0

Hi all...lady...if you have some spare money you want to send me, I'll take it! :)

hi there myme :)
Hi Kristn. I have this friend who i dont like his name is Bill and he loves all my money so he take it away and it makes me sad
beth -- I did but I'm not at home now and I had it in a drafts folderin Thunderbird, which has been misbehaving. I hope I can retrieve it. Please send me an email (address in my profile) to remind me when I get home!
he is SO beautiful, kristinc!
Wow, Kristin. I had been away for a while and didn't know the little one arrived. A very belated congrats, and I am so happy for you. He's a handsome guy.

I have that same "friend" lady!

Sprite Bill has to be a friend of some sorts he takes my money
thank you jili will do

He's huge now Sprite...I will try to update my icon later to reflect that
Kristin Zach is adorabubble.
**evil laughter to Fran** Now this game's becoming fun.
Hi Feather

that's good kristin, because someone mentioned the other night that you can't return them. :-)
and feather...I see I picked a great time to log on...so many folks!
hi heather!
Zach is great. He is keeping my busy. He is huge-about 16 pounds and a really happy little guy. I have just been busy trying to get the whole work from home with a baby thing down but we're making progress.

How is Mr Nicolas?
Lol, Fran. I've tried a few times, and it's true. No returns.

thx
bye feather!

hi feather, bye feather
ra6/30 - the furthest away from being cooked
but I am going to be off the week of Thanksgiving - flying to North Dakota to see my daughter and son in law - so thoughts of that are getting me thru
that is terrible, mamabear.
bye feather
thanks Haz....
sorry to hear that mama, you just make sure no one stresses you at work, your health is the most important thing
You're welcome.
hiya haz
Comes up for ai*. 11 to go. Gasp!
actually I have been off quite a bit with back procedures, and then the bout in the hospital - my manager has been good about it
Good afternoon/evening all. Just looking in...
go jacs go !!!
And hoping that Jacula will keep breathing.
thanks helen, but unfortunately work is on top of the list of stresses, right after home and right before back pain!
hi jac, haz
mama, well that's good, to have an understanding boss is a blessing
he is helen, but there is a limit to what he can do without getting himself in trouble - so I am trying to do what I can by making up time this week
any clues please for the first se4/5 combo?
yay Jac, you are doing well!
thanks everyone for listening... and your concern and caring - means alot!
okay, time for me to get a bit more work in before someone wakes up from his nap...great to see everyone. I promise I will try to check in more often. Peace :)
to you to kristin

We'll probably get the tail end of it, but I think the storms are going to be much further north. Sleep well, anywya.
Got to order Tea, who do you use to order on line?
anyway, that should be.
Hellen hugs.
Can someone tell me how many RA words there are please
anniversaries are tough helen, but the first is a milestone, and things do get better.... it will be the last of the first christmas, first thanksgiving, first birthday, etc.
oh, that's ok mama, it's the worst for his partner, it was his birthday yesterday & he spent part of his 31st birthday at the cemetary
6 ra words
there are 6 herin
i hav 3 ra's
I'm not doing the grid but I can count off lickety's list
scrolling down - boy it sure is a monster
Never ordered tea online. Good question. I love Stash and Twinings tho.
thanks
yes doren, i agree, i've been thinking that all year, 'just get through this first year' sigh
really tough indeed, helen. We just had our first anniversary of the death of our friend as well, and it brings up so many things...
I usually order from Upton tea company, but wanted to know if there is one everyone thinks is the best
the first year is the hardest - too many "firsts"
It does get better. I know that sounds lame, and loss is loss, but the first year is...
that's what we have been telling ourselves all year too, mamabear
I'm overwhelmed just at the selections in stores..I'd have some kind of fit if I had to decide from all the online choices!
it's not lame, dorens - only time cures that kind of loss
oooh, i got a really good tea as a gift from Fortnum & Mason - but i don't know if you can order on-line, everyone has stuff on-line nowadays, i'm sure you could
can i ask please for help on the RA words I have ra 4 x 2 ra 5/6 what the heck am i missing
*~*!*~* ta da *~*!*~* There were so many strange words in this one that I didn't even bother to look them up after a while!
I just started to drink differnet kinds of teas, I was surprised at the selection and differences. Not being brought up[ as a tea drinker
Yah Cyber
ra7 and 8, lady
ah sprite, i remember, your girlfriend, very young, and your group of great supportive friends

And congratulations Jacula!
yea jacula!!!!!!
^5 Jacula

WTG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Jac
It has been 27 years since my brother died. It does get easier, but that void will always be there, obviously.
yay for jacs !!!!!!
Helen, I just read about ziggy... hard to believe... hope all is well now
and an ra5, lady
Thank you. My congrats to all who've finished while I've been deep in the grid.
thanks helen, for remembering :) *hug*
yay jacs!
yay for Jac!
ra7 another word for clothes, then plural
thanks dorens - he's doing great! it's a big relief
A lot of the herbals make my mouth itch, so that rules a lot of teas out for me. I usually drink Earl Grey or green.
looking now
thanks bubba. great clue!
think of a biblical term for clothing, lady
just had a cup of russian taiga tea from Twinings Voyage. Lovely.
Do u have a favorite so far?
I am not present in the chat as often as I'd like these days, but when I am, it still never ceases to amaze me how wonderful everyone is in here to each other - so caring! *sigh*
sprite - well, i was very touched by that, it's a true blessing to have a circle of wonderful friends & tragic to lose one
got it thanks
I remember that now too
Is that the orange-tinged flavor, Sprite?
We just started getting Twinnings Lady Grey here -- my current favourite!
not really, Krista
Have we lost a babbler?
I like several of the Assam teas, also like the English breakfast blends and the Ceylon blends
Irish breakfast is good, too (Twinings)..what is Lady Grey?
*shrugs*
who are we missing herin <gasping for breath...diving too long>
helen: we will go re4 a house for a week at the end of this month again with the rest of the closest of her friends, as we used to do while she was still with us. We will remember and celebrate her life and our bond with her.
Nice idea sprite
oh sprite, that's lovely
WHAT IS THE TEN LETTER WO
WORD
sounds perfect sprite
Not that i am aware of but Helen said 'tragic to lose one thats why am asking have we lost a babbler?
we 10 luvme -- please don't shout, though
No babbler lost, they've been talking about losing rleatives/friends.
sorry
no lady, I lost a very dear friend last year. Helen lost a very dear relative.
Ok sorry confused my pc totaly froze. I am sorry to hear that Sprite
My daughter just learned about the Mexican Day of the Dead yesterday. We decided to honor each relative by a small offering on their birthdays. I think it's a healthy thing to do. Other cultures really handle death better than we do.
It's over 14 months now since we lost Babbler Mtnjock (Steve Birkla).
back!
ok, only one T7 left... shouldn't be too hard to find.
Krista i do the same thing for friends departed.
my wireless went down...don't know what happened
I never knew him, Jac.
I never met Mtnjock
hi Fran, wb again. I don't think I knew that babbler, Jac.
i hav a t7
mtnjock was a great dude
Fran i think i my gremlins ate your wireless
te 7 x4, th 7
I remember him as well, Jacula - Scoutsmom never really babbled much after he died.
fireworks at last
krista - that's so true, like my neighbors who think there's nothing wrong with wearing t-shirt & jeans to wakes - to me, that;s so disrespectful
he quoted me in his bio - so i say he was smart
oh and a ta 7
yay sprite!!
Congratulations sprite - a marathon today!
Well done, sprite.
wtg sprite

Hello Karys. I haven't been here the whole time, honestly.

i am going to stop chatting & start babbling, still have 146 to go, will never get done at this rate
I know, nut, I know. Too tired to go to bed, if that makes any sense to you.
hi karys
I'm sitting here enjoying the chat and procrastinating getting to work on the web page I took pictures for earlier today --- Does anyone need a clue so I don't have to go to work?
*hugs helen*

I think I'm going to go to bed now if I can summon up the energy to climb the stairs.

apple!!!!!!! good to see you
My Grandma used to say 'I'd go to bed now, if I wasn't too tired '
we10 - those who live in the land where the cowboy film might be made?
hi lati

great icon, lati
LOL Karys
we 10 builds off the we 4/8: -- people who live in a certain geographical area of that direction
thnx
why hello mamabear (i'm an apple i'm an apple) how do you do? need me to keep the dr away?
Jac couch it
I totally sympathise with your grandma, Karys
You see, what you should do is get ready for bed earlier in the evening. Then you just have to pop yourself upstairs.

thank you...
yes please
sweet dreams, Jac! *hug for you*
really must get to the drawing board --- back at the flip -- bye for now :)
Herin - no way! Last time I slept on a settee I thought my neck was broken next day.

I didn't realize you could only get one me
lol, didn't know you could have just one! :-)
you're welcome Doxy
mr carleekat does NOt get babble ... he says...chatting with people you have never met..is like pickingup the phonebook and picking a random 3 and calling them
ramdom # I mean
what is wrong with that? lol
Fair enough for him but he must be bored were he is
am7?
he skoffs
last me5/12?
but here, we at least have a common interest. It would have to be a babble phone book
there is probably a hockey game on now....so he will go to bed..and watch that and be happy happy happy
doxy, end of prayer + spanish for aunt
am7 sounds like dementia
doxy: add vowel blend to am5/12
Doxy, elderly people get de******, change it to am and the rest of the word
i was just going to say that mom
say what Fran?
thanks, got it
lol
the part about babble being our common interest
last me5/12 anyone?
at7/52 anyone?
I thought you were going to say the part about the elderly forgetting
47 left no list still yes i am using more words im not that much of a freak
Momof5, spritz perfume through one of these

well *i* think you are remarkable and that you are just not aware of it
i mean think about it, you come into the chatroom, and people remark. they say things like, "oh look, there's torgone!" so you are obviously remark-able
last one, need help on re6-30 ( the 1st one), asked for clue earlier and just didnt get it.
for that matter, i could draw on you with a marker like ross did to rachel, and after it wore off i could do it again, and so you are obviously re-mark-able
re + past tense of cut logs
I guess I do elicit remarks sometimes ...
for frogs sake what is with the big grids and mega freak outs wiht IE7 and mozilla and lickety
or remarkerable
You could mark me and re-mark me all you want ..
