2:34 am

2:35 am

2:35 am

hi herin

2:35 am

I have a foster home for mentally disabled adult ladies

trouble with un and re words and the like -- they could have anything after them so I hate them

I have another recipe and Hi Meliae long time

2:36 am

mel, you are a saint

2:36 am

Poor women, I wonder what has happened to her in the past. But I understand Meliae

2:36 am

hi herin

hi herin... ditto what jili said

2:36 am

I thought you went to bed jilli : )

Ok this is a bit long but does anyone mind if i post this cake recipe.

ok by me

2:37 am

post it in your profile herin

2:37 am

yeah the option they gave me was dope her up basically but I dont like that at all going to try working on it a few more nights perhaps after she settles in more they will become less frequent

OH that is a better idea thanks

Melia i congratulate you on your very hard job

mayne un word uses last part of co 9

2:38 am

Meliae, my mom has Alzheimer's and is now in a foster home with six other ladies. You ARE a saint. I don't know how you do it. Thanks for all your hard work on a very thankless job.

2:39 am

TY Volley

yqw glad to help

KJE done and posted in profile

2:40 am

will go have a look herin - always trying to fatten me up : )

2:40 am

Mayne and everyone else - the un might be the "opposite" of the co 9 recently clued.

2:40 am

kje, I needed to relax before going to bed :)

This is a treat

2:40 am

ty for the 8

2:41 am

had another red rectangle of death for a bit

Is there a UN 9 sorry i may have just got the wrong end of the stick

2:41 am

interesting herin - will try it...a little skeptical of the microwaving cake part

so far I only have a un 8

2:42 am

red rectangle of death?

2:42 am

hahaha I just guessed on the ch 8 and it was a word who would of thought

It works and tastes better if you pour cream and Hurshys choc syrup onit. Thanks Volley

2:42 am

I'm sure herin - LOL

Meliae i hope you have been well

2:43 am

yeah we moved into a bigger house so I have been so busy, getting everyone settled in and then taking the new lady it has been taxing to say the least

2:44 am

just tried two real words -- not accepted. Lignum as in lignum vitae, and gila as in monster.

It is very hard with special needs people to get them into a new routine.

I like the Gila monster one Jill

2:44 am

my fav word ec4.6 is here!

2:45 am

yes, we prepared ahead of time and I let them pick their new rooms and I did my best to move them in slowly but it has been interesting to say the least lol

I got a rude shock today when i went to the store. They are looking at building a massive 140 appartment and shops up the road with 460 car spaces um no

Did the ladys enjoy choosing the new rooms?

2:46 am

TY lynxx

2:46 am

ouch that will be horrible Herin, yes I let them help paint.......~groan~ but it was a lot of fun

2:46 am

hmmm...ec4/6... *thinking*

2:47 am

famous artist did a lot of hidden type sketches clue for the EV 4/6

2:47 am

not quite the same as Little Sir Ec**, change the last vowel Jilli

2:47 am

oops ec 4/6

It would have been fun Meliae. An old high schools friends brother is Autistic, high needs so i fully understand routines and so forth.

2:49 am

I tried working with Autistic people like 10 years ago you just cannot take care of more than one properly they are so full of energy so I dont take them anymore

2:49 am

ty, lynxxx -- like a beheaded ex gf of Ellen

2:50 am

or maybe that means nothing in the antipodes

2:50 am

Yes! took me a minute to remember her name

Meliae this is the monstrosity they want to build: http://tinyurl.com/5km775

2:52 am

holy cow that thing is huge!

Yep and the site isn't that big either

2:53 am

left lower corner I?

KJE its an I

2:54 am

well that was helpful herin -

had to say it sorry

2:55 am

brat

IO 6 18 thats what it is

Its the British spelling, it uses an ? instead of the Z

2:57 am

aaahh - TY herin

2:57 am

Dead Zone here -- bye!

2:58 am

Sleep tight Jilli

2:58 am

it is early lori - what are we doing awake?

Opps i forgot to eat again today

2:59 am

Same old same old kje, insomnia still rules. It'll pass. 'Yer up late, or early?

2:59 am

Hi Lori. Careful kje, you know what she's like when she's woken up too early

2:59 am

early

3:00 am

should go back to sleep soon as I have to teach in the morning and not good when the teacher is the one yawning : )

3:00 am

Lynx, the caffeine has begun, so I shouldn't be TOO cranky.... :D

3:00 am

you do that too huh Herin? I find myself with a head ache them realize I have not eaten

3:00 am

actually, I don't know herin - haven't experienced it yet, but thanks for the warning

3:01 am

Yowsa kje, yah, yawning and lack of interest is usually not good....

Meliae i got up very late today

3:02 am

have some tea and something thats what I am having a sandwich and some tea =)

Lori the best thing you have done is get up rather than lay there and look at the ceiling

3:03 am

yep laying there wont get you anywhere

You could count the cracks in the ceiling

3:06 am

morning all, isn't algee a word?

HI Pink

3:06 am

OK - 89 in and will call it a night... or morning... or whatever - later babblebuds

Its Algae

3:06 am

agee or algae

3:06 am

G'd morning pink. ***hugs** SLeep tight kje!!!

3:07 am

3:07 am

Hi Pink - you could have og**. Hi Rolin!

3:07 am

I can't get into this later

3:13 am

BBS need to get a few more layers of clothing on

3:14 am

Bottom 5 tiles greyed, and a mere 180 or so left to go......

3:14 am

***hands Lynx a warm, soft blankie***

I think "noncue" should be a word

3:15 am

lol I agree Volley. I created a number of re words which were sadly, not accepted.

I always do that with re words...

3:24 am

Good morning all.

3:25 am

G'd morning Haz!

3:25 am

morning Haz

3:25 am

Hello there - Lori, you're getting earlier and earlier.

3:25 am

Warm now Lynx?

3:26 am

much better thanks

3:26 am

Yah, I know Haz. Ack. It will pass sooner or later.

3:26 am

I hope so.

3:33 am

***skipping the 'c' due to lack of interest***

3:34 am

Hello everyone..... is it me, or is this a bit like pulling teeth ?

3:35 am

It's not just you, Karys. I concluded that quite quickly.

3:35 am

hi Karys, I'm finding it fun

3:35 am

G'd morning Karys. I'm not exactly defining Babble success with this grid..... :D

3:35 am

***skipping the n's too***

3:35 am

Maybe we'll all get a rush of inspiration soon.

3:36 am

It may be just a 'crawl' of inspiration here !

3:37 am

It's better than no inspiration at all, you have to admit.

3:38 am

Grudgingly, I suppose it is

3:38 am

I have a means of escape this morning, it's a housework day.

3:38 am

I remain in a state of permanent anticipation, for the aforementioned inspiration......

3:39 am

Hear that, Lori? You can do housework instead as a means of escape.

3:39 am

Housework. Sacrilege! Ack ack ack, ackity-ack!

3:39 am

That's got you scrabbling for more words, hasn't it?

3:39 am

My eyes, my eyes!

3:40 am

I know, I know, so sorry to have mentioned a naughty word so early in the day.

3:41 am

Jeez, that should come with some kind of a content warning...... Man oh man

3:42 am

I like the 'mu' words !

3:43 am

I'd like any of the words if I could only find a respectable number of them.

3:43 am

Going bottom to top, I've only foundn 49 words, mid row. L/

3:44 am

I know I have a butterfly mind, but the way I am flitting all over this grid it's a wonder I'm not dizzy !

Morning everyone! :)

3:45 am

The l's aren't exactly leaping at me either... G'd morning Lorrie!

Yowsa, first sweep, and still 92 words left. ***sigh***

Anyone know if the ch8 is related to any of the other ch words?

4:17 am

not sure Monkey , but you sort of say this for the camera

Good clue to work with... thanks!

4:18 am

lol, thanks Lynx! ***stole that like a shoplifter***

Got it! Thanks! And it is unrelated to the other ch's, two of which are related to each other.

Thanks lyn, also got it! :)

4:25 am

I surrender. 84 left, and bailing to Lickety's. ***All hail Lickety!***

Indeed. I made it to 86 words and went on over...

4:26 am

You are not giving me mu4.8 confidence, I've 90 left

It seems to sorta collapse on one in the middle...

4:27 am

Go Lynx go!

Phantom: congeries

4:29 am

morning all

4:30 am

morning dear Sprite!

4:30 am

G'd morning sprite.

Hi Sprite! How's tricks?

4:30 am

slept well, dreamt ok, slowly waking up now. A little better than yesterday, I think. How are you all doing?

Hi sprite - hope you are ok.. :)

I missed you yesterday.... you OK? I'm fine, recovered from the jetlag now, mostly. Walter was right glad to get back to daycare after two and a half weeks just with boring old mama!

4:32 am

I bet he had a great time. How did he do in the plane?

4:32 am

*hugs Lorrie* Yeah, ok enough to start this day. Decided to not make any decisions today either, and tomorrow is therapy time, so first talk it over. And then we will see.

He was great! I mean, he was three so there were moments, but he never had a tantrum or cried or acted very badly ... or slept...

4:33 am

one great kid with one great mum then. Well done, both of you.

Awwww, shucks.

OK, I got drenched to the skin taking Walter to daycare so I'm off for a warm shower. Then I'll be back on here for a couple minutes over lunch, then I'd better get on with the housework.

4:35 am

sounds like a plan. That rain is ugly. But I am glad the thunder pressure has lifted a little.

4:36 am

bye for now MonkeyG

Yeah, yesterdayw as downright oppressive, wasn't it? OK, off I go for now.

4:36 am

how are you and Stewart, lynxxx?

4:38 am

Good thanks Sprite. Very cold here at nights now. But Stew is cosy warm in his new giant bed and clothes! cute in black turtleneck! (I don't spoil him though)

4:39 am

roflol, I know you do. But only where it can't hurt. And dogs like Stewart do need help to keep warm, I believe?

4:40 am

They do, he sleeps much better with a coat on too even though he sleeps inside (of course)

4:41 am

have said it before, but will say it again: he is so lucky to be with you.

4:45 am

wow... that wasn't supposed to be a stopper...

4:46 am

and it wasn't - thankyou! - just had my head down trying some silly combinations

4:47 am

am glad :) Stupid dad issues bring back my fear to say things the wrong way without even knowing it, I guess. Sorry.

4:49 am

hey everyone, sprite did you get my facebook invite?

4:50 am

hey pinkie! I don't think I have opened facebook in... 4 months or so. Sorry.

4:50 am

Sprite - I have never known you to offend, you are a wonderful person, believe in yourself. Put all these bad memories to the side for a while until you are in the best place to deal with them.

4:51 am

that is great advice, lynxxx, thank you. Think I will do just that.

4:51 am

its ok sprite i only done it last night

4:52 am

BBS getting a coffee

4:53 am

can't seem to get myself to open facebook regularly. It takes up too mu4 time. It just does not work for me.

4:56 am

i have found since being on facebook sprite, my system has slowed down alot, then i was told that info sharing sites have a tendency to do so because its retreiving so mu4 from other peoples network

4:57 am

sprite that was me using cool girl lol

4:58 am

yes, I heard things like that too. But worst for me is, that there are so many great games to play there. At some point I was spending half the day playing games with other babblers and with myself. Then I did not have time for a while. Then I came back and I had about 300 invites. I hate that.

4:59 am

The only positive I get from facebook is the ability to view photographs of my family, particularly thos in Australia

4:59 am

sorry, got to go, unexpected visitors. Back later.

Hello again. Back for a few. Glancing at chat subject... We have a website for our family to see Walter grow up.

5:13 am

Hi ExWren! I haven't seen you since you did your trip. Was everything as good as expected? It must have been seeing your son

Anyone have a clue for the first co/16?

5:13 am

GM,just stopping in for a feew min. befor I start my day.How is everyone?

5:13 am

the first one I have is like the eel but drops one of the end vowels

5:14 am

Hi PJ

5:14 am

hi LYN

Thanks! Te eel is here? It said it wasn't; maybe I spelled it wrong. The one with the double vowel is a Chinese rice porridge I eat frequently.

co16 - sounds like a party dance with a different vowel at the end.... Ok Monkey?

5:15 am

No eel! it means to take ones leave, sorry

Oh, I got it from the clue, but this is a great clue as well! Thanks again!

Wait, two people! Sorry, thanks to BOTH! Where IS my head these days?!

5:20 am

G'd morning hodag. I hope things are going well for ya'.

5:24 am

5:28 am

hello all, may I please have clues for the 9's

5:29 am

that should be when, not went, sorry~! :\

5:32 am

TY Lorrie

5:33 am

found lo7 but not lo8 or lo9

Interestingly I have 2 ho8's and a 9 but cannot find the 7!

Lo I mean.

5:34 am

compound word peri, second word draw a straight ****, not curved

5:34 am

MOnkey the ho 7 is one who does the ho 5/12

5:34 am

5:36 am

oh NM

There's 1 ho8. I don't have it either.

5:39 am

Monkey did you get the lo7

Indeed, nice clue. Thanks! Working on that ho now...

Yes, weird word! Thanks!

Well, better stop at 113 for now and actually get stuff done. I'll be back sporadically. Have fun, all!

5:42 am

sorry, I didn't get the ho 8 - gerund. I have the ho 5 which sounds like a greeting

5:44 am

Just put the gerund end on the greetING word Bichon

5:44 am

Can someone clue the very first word of the grid, ae 5/12... I'm desperate...

5:44 am

5:46 am

7:38 am

Carlee, saw Bon Jovi couple of weeks ago, he was brilliant - GO !

Do you have more than just those lyrics?

Hi too

7:40 am

sounds like you were rehumming it - but alas rehum is not a word, though I tried : )

Jaz do you know any other words?

Rihanna Twisted – Brian McFadden Boom Shake The Room – Will Smith Men In Black – Will Smith Take Me Out – Franz Ferdinand Where The City Meets The Sea – The Getaway Plan US Forces – Midnight Oil I Kissed A Girl – Katy Perry

7:47 am

7:48 am

Question

7:56 am

7:56 am

YES! I feel a million bucks and i may be able to sleep now, muttering into my pillow "you may ask yourself, where is that large automobile"

Hi Cross its called an earworm as you can not get it out of your head.

7:57 am

So is the song about bemoaning the emptiness of materialism?

7:57 am

I have a small problem. One of my fav bands is touring and is doing this on muy b.fs birthday HELP what do i do

DIfferent Cross

7:59 am

so the bf isn't into the same band?

8:00 am

Hi Herin. How are things on your side of the world ?

8:00 am

Hi Jaz

Jaz i don't think so. 2 years ago i bought him Dresdan doll tickets

Dr its late i feel ill and twitchy

8:01 am

DR, I just watched the Foster's episode where they all go for a sleepover at Max's house (against his will)! *Popping out again, much to do before work*

8:01 am

and things went badly after that, herin?

8:02 am

Sorry to hear that. Here it is early

8:02 am

UNI_ I love that one...

8:03 am

Eduardo loses his "memories" so they go back...

No Jaz not at all

No Jaz im just saying it was one of those wonderful things that was timed perfectly

8:06 am

i'm crap with relationship advice, but my mum used to say to always give what you would want, so go the band tickets!

No Jaz the issue is i organised a night out with everyone. Also organising a shhhh secret birthday party for him

8:08 am

Oh.. and you didnt know the band was playing that night...

8:09 am

OOOOh, sorry herin, unlike you i only have one compartment in my brain; it's got a stick in it, and i usually grab the wrong end of it

8:10 am

LOL jaz

I didn't know that they are playing that night. The shhh party is 2 weeks before.

8:11 am

good morning everyone

Its ok Jazz. we have been together for four years. Today i have just given up talking and typing instead

Hi Flosey

8:11 am

hey flosey

8:11 am

Hi Flosey

8:12 am

ask flosey - she might be a good advice giver

8:13 am

oh, what kind of advice?

8:13 am

the juiciest, most bewildering kind - relationships!

Debating what to do about going out

8:14 am

as in dating? or ?

Flosey there is this awesome band playing on the night of my b.fs birthday and i sort of said maybe we can all get together that night to do something. We are doing a shh party a week before.

8:14 am

relationships - I've been married to one wonderful guy for 47 years

8:15 am

is it a fav. band of your bf?

I have been with someone for 4 years and he gets that 90 % of the time i have a scambled brain

My fave band

8:16 am

hmmm, but if you're having a party for him a week in advance, then perhaps he'd go with you to the band of your choice?

Good point that flosey. Right now i have given up speaking as i keep stuttering and forgetting words

8:17 am

orif he really doesn't enjoy that band, perhaps arrange to go with girlfriends

hey & huggggggggssssssssss y'all babble friends of mine :o)

8:19 am

hi there nance

I dont have any real world friends

8:19 am

oooh, you're good flosey, i had a good feeling about your advice giving skills, based totally on your name

8:20 am

lol jaz, it's an old one isn't it, never hear of any young flos

8:21 am

how is it that you don't have girlfriends herin? how about school chums

nope

Because i told the one g.f to go jump as she was a using bitch

8:22 am

I still see old elementary school chums,

8:23 am

ouch herin

8:23 am

that is kinda sad Herin but I get it. I dont have a lot of friends I do stuff with either

8:23 am

ok, leave the bitch behind, you don't need that kind - but try to make new ones

I don't see from my high school days as they are um

8:23 am

My best friend I have known my whole life

8:24 am

those are the greatest dr

I do Flosey

8:24 am

you are very lucky

I thought Mung was a word

8:24 am

it

8:24 am

mung is a bean

8:24 am

She married my very first boyfriend and even after 12 years of dating and 13 years of marriage, it still makes hubby a little uncofortable..

8:24 am

only if it's got a bean to hang out with herin

8:25 am

* uncomfortable

8:28 am

hmmm dr, did you dump him? what makes him uncomfortable

8:29 am

herin, i've gotta go to bed; sorry i don't have advice, but the fact that it's plaguing you is a good sign that you love this bloke; hopefully he knows that

8:29 am

wow, just got the ho8 - strange one

8:29 am

nighty night all, thanks too herin for curing my earworm

Jaz he knows that and i am glad i helped you with that song

8:30 am

goodnight jaz

DR i have a guy friend that is an ex and my b.f doesn't care as i have neutered the ex. I had to cut the ex out of my life for a while as he was getting to touchie feely and being disrespectful

NIght Jaz and i really should follow you on that

8:32 am

The ex is ok.. in fact I have repeatedly told hubby that I am glad I am not with ex. I think hubby doesnt like knowing tht I was a little more crazy at 16 dating a college guy than I am now.

8:33 am

Gnight Jaz

DR dont know what to say with that one

8:34 am

The jealousy thing has actually gotten better but it appears every on4 and a while...

8:35 am

8:35 am

Hi Babs!

8:35 am

Babs my friend T has a daughter A and son AU and the daughter is being a right little princess

8:39 am

Hi Nance

8:39 am

ah....teenage life is so complicated --now more with cyberspace

8:40 am

this grid is daunting, or is it just me?

8:40 am

no Babs, it is not just you

8:40 am

it is indeed Babs, I'm struggling

Well shes a little princess and she doesn't get how much she hurts her mum

8:41 am

they never do Herin

8:41 am

some do later as they grow up?

Her mum and 'dad' split up cause he was an abusive arse. She is now living with him (who is only her father on the birth cert as he bullied her mum to do it). It was her 21st and her own mother and real father couldn't go as they don't have anything to do with the guy

hey y'all - i'm back again - i'm researching employment positions that would allow me to work from home. i worked 24 years non-stop until 1995

8:46 am

Good morning everyone. May I please have a clue for ho8-55? Thanks

Nance that would be nice

8:47 am

8:47 am

g'morning all - just checking in for a minute before heading for IKEA - how is everyone?

zane & i are seriously considering work & training from PetSmart on all faces of pet grooing - once i understand that & complete 100 solo groomings, both of us can start a new business - since both of us have back troubles - i love animals - any words of wisdom from my babble friends?

8:48 am

hello all

hey harp & kris

8:48 am

PetSmart -- at home? I guess PetSmart is if you don't work at home?

8:48 am

nance, you look like periwinkle :)

8:49 am

sounds like a great business to get into nance - but would bathing dogs bother your back?

8:49 am

say, does anyone know about what time each day the Rankings are updated? It happens sometime while I am sleeping....

8:49 am

9:05 am

Glad to read your man recovering well Scarlet - lots of African vibes to you both

9:06 am

we'll all muddle through it Dorens - like the song says "with a little help from my friends"

9:06 am

Hello Babbleland.

i dunno mom, sometimes they might not see me that way.

9:06 am

9:06 am

Hi Bea

I haven't been around much

9:07 am

9:07 am

Thank you for the African kindness, Ursh... I shall pass it along.

me either - i've been down w/this my back 4 2 weeks

9:07 am

truth be told, Dorens, I am sure I am on quite a few "list" of people I rub the wrong way.

9:08 am

flosey... my monkies have found the darndest words today...

9:08 am

LOL, Do... I wondered that too...

9:08 am

I do not know 27 C words, I am sure of that.

9:08 am

This has been the week of the C words, and I finished them first just to get the thorns out of my brain... LOL

9:09 am

There were more than 27 C words the other day.

hi bzzz

yay for the monkeys

9:09 am

Hey, herin.

9:09 am

How are you?

9:10 am

Hi, Bzzzzzzzzzz! Well, thank you! How are you?

9:10 am

Miss Scarlett!

9:11 am

**Taking a old-fashioned Southern bow to Ms. Bzzzzzzzzzzzzz***

9:11 am

I'm rested, but that is because I just got up from 12 hours of sleep.

9:11 am

Wow... I don't think I ever slept that long... EVER

9:11 am

sorry, i was on phone. mom, i cannot believe that ofyou!!!

9:11 am

12 hours, wow,

I have been awake now for 12 hours

9:12 am

lol Dorens, believe it.

9:12 am

I'm very lucky if I get 6 hours - feel very proud of myself if I sleep more than that

9:12 am

Lady, who is that intense man in your icon?

9:12 am

I am a bit skewed.

9:13 am

Flosey, I'm in the same boat... I can never go longer than three or four hours...

9:13 am

Mom... right here in public? LOL

9:13 am

i haven't had more than 6 or 7 hours sleep in years now

That is Nick Cave he now has a 'i've come to clean zee pool mo'

9:14 am

lol Scarlet. I, too, am in the same sleepless boat.

9:14 am

What is it with women over a certain age? I never have been a good sleeper... and occasionally take a sleep aid.. Ambien.. it works very well, but not for more than 4 1/2 hours...

9:14 am

I do fall asleep reading though - little cat naps here and there throughout the day

9:15 am

I can sleep 12 hours and take a nap the same afternoon.

9:15 am

i take half a xanax when i really need a good nite. and i get 7 from that

9:15 am

bzzzxn isn't quite at that certain age yet, is she?

ok - i'm going to play another game - anyone want to go with me?

9:15 am

I too have sleeping pills - tiny little things that I cut in half

9:16 am

At least that works for you, Do. Narcotics make me even more jazzy... it's a crazy body I live in...

9:16 am

I am at that age, Dorens.

I just sleep when i can and wake when i do

9:16 am

Morning all. Melatonin and chamomile are good herbal sleep aids.

9:17 am

good morning Judi

9:17 am

Have fun, nance! :-)

9:18 am

ursh, gerund of cheddar :-)

9:18 am

ch8- my favorite breakfast food + gerund (i like it on toast)

9:18 am

It's a stooopit word Ursh... It's the gerund of Swiss or gouda

9:18 am

Hi, chiley!

9:41 am

That's Hi Babblers.....not just one Babbler

9:41 am

please stay around, we will be needing clues?

9:42 am

OH, we guessed it, chiley... this is such a fun grid... frustrating, but fun.

9:42 am

Good morning/afternoon all.

9:42 am

as in, mu7 - not the ones to do with eating

9:43 am

Well Hi Haz...were you lurking also?

9:43 am

Hey, Haz.

9:43 am

good morning Haz

9:43 am

Hiya, Haz!

9:43 am

Good morning, Haz.

Morning again...getting ready for the gym again. cherishing my last day off for a while.

9:43 am

Hello , chiley

9:43 am

.

9:43 am

Good morning, red!

9:43 am

hi all :)

9:43 am

morning red

9:43 am

Hello there! No, chiley, I did the grid earlier but just happened to come in around the time you revealed yourself. In a manner of speaking.

9:43 am

hi there Ata

9:44 am

ATA!!!

9:44 am

Hello Ata

9:44 am

gosh, everyone suddenly appears :P

9:44 am

aha...

Its because you are here Atalante, does that help your smugness??

9:45 am

Just coincidence I'm sure, Ata. Or perhaps not.

9:45 am

*drops cloak of invisibility* Afternoon all :)

9:45 am

Hmmm. Why should this be?

9:45 am

LOl, Good day, FMitch!

9:45 am

Hello FMitch - deciding to do the grid?

9:45 am

hi FM

9:46 am

Umm enjoying toying with the thought, how has it proved to be (if that makes sense) :)

9:46 am

*Waves to everyone from the greenhouse (where she really is).*

9:46 am

ooooh no I don't think I'm the impetus lol

but you must be!

9:46 am

Hi, Jacula.

9:46 am

It has some interesting words

9:46 am

Waving back to Jacula. Gone all wireless and technical?

Hi Jacula.

9:46 am

Waves to everyone

9:46 am

hi Jac

9:46 am

It's not so much Atalante's arrival that's the impetus.

9:46 am

Not enjoying this one

9:47 am

Where have all you lurkers been? Not working I hope.

9:47 am

though it could be! *looks smug*

9:47 am

lots of silly words in here

9:47 am

Haz - LOL. I've very cleverly set up a connectin using nothing more than a plant pot, a cane and some vine wire.;-)

9:47 am

or even a connection.

9:47 am

I prefer silent observers myself, it doesn't sound so threatening.

9:47 am

Darn Judi has sussed it out, bad bad real world getting in the way of babble again!!

9:48 am

Is that plant pot or pot plant??

9:48 am

Jacula - it was that kind of inventive spirit that got us through the war.

9:48 am

plant pot, chiley.

9:48 am

it could be a potted pot plant chiley

9:48 am

Haz - It was indeed! I've been digging for victory this morning, too.

9:48 am

Can't see any i words at all

9:49 am

You're not one of those people who likes to pretend that it's still the forties? Rationing and gravy browning for stockings and things?

9:49 am

I had to turn my fan off. Silverclaw was glaring at it

9:49 am

Think of an Eskimo's home, movie

9:49 am

oh dear mm, and I can't help as I have zero words of any sort

9:49 am

mm - you get twelve in a foot

9:49 am

i have one movie - small imperial measurement

9:49 am

I was just checking. With a pot plant you might get the mu5/18ies.

9:49 am

Darn it! The rain washed my 'stockings' off. *grins*

9:49 am

mm, I'm pretending I'm not seeing them - as a clue

9:49 am

Then I will completely IG**** you for the rest of the day

9:49 am

in7/36 - unknown to the French

9:50 am

good one, chiley

9:50 am

LOL, flosey! snap.

9:50 am

And I suppose the eyebrown pencil for seams has come off as well?

9:50 am

wow, thanks for all the fab "i" clues!!

9:50 am

Hi all - I dont usually allow myself to look at the chat or lickety until at least half way but are pretty much stuck at 90 words

9:50 am

intreaguing i words indeed!

9:50 am

Haz - smudged a bit.

9:50 am

and sweetened condensed milk as a dessert!

9:51 am

:-) Une

9:51 am

The last one is io6.

9:51 am

my mom told me about that one!

9:51 am

lol I'll still happily eat condensed milk!

9:51 am

You just can't get the eyebrow pencils these days..

9:52 am

Im going to take my place in the PB now and get comfy as I am sure to end up in there before too long

9:52 am

My ex pa-in-law drinks condensed milk. Yuck!

9:52 am

Yes, settle back, mind you don't sit on the ho7/32, they're prickly

9:52 am

Une, could you please ask your mother to whisper in my ear?

9:53 am

haz, fm, you'll be pleased to know this. from the BBC: Model Katie Price and husband Peter Andre have accepted "substantial damages" over a News of the World article portraying them as bad parents.

9:53 am

lol Haz

9:53 am

Haz - FM'll be okay - she ain't heavy, she's their sister.

9:53 am

Well there you go!

9:53 am

Hobbit is in the grid today, sort of

9:53 am

You don't suppose they monitor the internet? You don't think we could be accused of insulting them?

9:54 am

Ooh Jacs that is excellent

9:54 am

but only if you know her proper name, not her normal name

9:54 am

:-)

9:54 am

More good news! Part 3 of the Rooney Wedding. The Honeymoon is in the shops now.

Ok, must go back to the gym. gee I have only found 60 words, what have I been doing?

9:54 am

Oh, the Ho7/32 - 'All I need is the air that I breathe and to looooooooooooove you'

9:55 am

What is the emoticon for 'speechless and bewildered'?

9:55 am

*whimpers*

9:55 am

Later, red. LOL.l. Haz... likewise, FM!

9:55 am

A little man in a white coat?

9:56 am

A little man in a white coat holding up a sign saying Bewildered ---------->

9:56 am

I need the ho7 after that one Haz, any clues please?

9:56 am

ho7 - the one who gives ho5/12

9:56 am

45 to go. I'd better get back to my potting up. BBL.

9:57 am

isn't there an ho7 after that one?

9:57 am

Yes, a plural for ho5/16

9:58 am

See you later, Jacula.

9:58 am

C tile is gray.

9:58 am

Off to do something else for a bit.

9:58 am

don't have that ho5

9:58 am

TTFN Bea

9:58 am

Bye Bzzn.

9:59 am

I'm glad to hear it, flosey. Isn't it illegal alcohol?

9:59 am

I have a spaniel "doh!" story for you

9:59 am

If it started with a p it would have canine tendencies.

9:59 am

Let's hear the spaniel story.

9:59 am

woof

10:00 am

ah, got them both

10:00 am

Great, flosey.

10:00 am

we went for a lovely walk, a few miles around the creek and seashore. Hobbit had much fun. And she actually remained quite clean. Until ...

10:00 am

thanks for clues Haz

10:00 am

Uh oh.

10:00 am

You're welcome, flosey.

10:01 am

falls off chair in anticipation

10:01 am

... a pheasant flew out of the verge by us. Of course, Hobbit ran off at 90 degrees to the direction the pheasant flew off. But then she got her bearings and hared off into the wheat fields after the pheasant (who had long gone)

10:01 am

Release the hounds!!

10:01 am

she returns a few minutes later almsot literally *green* with goose grass and grass seed and goodness knows what else

10:02 am

But happy. I'm sure she was happy.

10:02 am

so far I have counted over 300 goose grass burrs, and had to pick 19 grass seeds from the really tender skin under her front legs. Grooming time so far: 50 minutes

10:02 am

She must have fallen into the chinese algae pool inadvertantly

10:03 am

and she's probably got at least 100 more goose grass bits. With her paws, I simply had to cut off all her feathers, it was so impossible to get the damn things out

10:03 am

LOOOOOOL yes

10:03 am

Speaking of green, did you see the news reports about the Chinese Olympic sailing venue that is drowning under green algae? The Chinese army have been drafted in to get rid. I

10:03 am

Oh paw Hobbit!

10:03 am

The CHinese army has been ....

10:04 am

haha! she's not the happiest little spaniel now, you're right

10:04 am

What's Hobbit going to do with no Arranging of the Paws possible?

10:04 am

the China green is just incredible

10:04 am

she still has enough to Arrange. just nothing straggly

10:05 am

Surely somebody, somewhere could make something from it. A fuel? A material?

10:05 am

it will make good compost

10:05 am

The China green algae, I mean, not Hobbit's feathers.

10:05 am

that too LOL

10:06 am

depending on what type is it, it's possible the algae could be used as fertiliser, or even to smoke fish

10:07 am

when you smoke fish, which end do you light?

10:07 am

There'd be enough to smoke a lot of fish.

10:08 am

many many eels

10:09 am

BabbleRabble - the end that doesn't have a filter on it of course.

10:09 am

too obvious

10:10 am

best I can do right now.

10:10 am

well, I should have known

10:10 am

depends whether you want to blow through a fish's mouth or backside

10:10 am

I have a bad feeling about the Beijing Olympics. Can't imagine people having to swim or row through all that algae ch4/8. Yeech. Bet it smells funky too.

10:10 am

oo er thunder is rolling around the skies. Don't remember that being forecasted

10:11 am

Oh, I never thought of smell implications.

10:12 am

We had thunder earlier on and really heavy rain. Another wonderful British summer day.

10:12 am

yes, it'll stink after a while

10:13 am

Wimbeldon has done well so far this year rainwise, for a change

10:13 am

players are coming back on court

10:13 am

That's true. The past few years they've been trying to catch up with themselves for days on end.

10:15 am

your sister was certainly there at the right time though

10:15 am

Nice to see you BabbleR BTW, haven't seen you for a while

10:15 am

Wasn't she just? On Tuesday she and her friend stationed themselves at Court 18 and watched some of the golden oldies playing doubles.

hi all!

10:16 am

She was saying that the noise on Centre Court on Monday evening was incredible - she could feel the noise in her chest (like at a loud music concert)

10:16 am

Just to set things straight, you understand. Nothing to do with it being a good cause, or anything.

10:30 am

10:30 am

I find it a great relief when people do exercise for me by proxy.

10:31 am

Le exercise sans le sweat.

Hi, and bye, FMitch, just got a call - have to go pick up my husband - he has to leave his car for service - see you all later

10:49 am

If I suddenly poof its the storm that is imminent but hopefully the loo roll and sticky backed plastic will keep me connected

10:49 am

Always trust sticky back plastic. Look what it did for Valerie Singleton.

10:50 am

Absolutely!!

10:50 am

got her into bed with Peter Purves?

10:50 am

Go and wash your mouth out with soap Miss Ata!

10:51 am

10:51 am

she didn't??? Oh I am soo naive

10:51 am

10:52 am

I prefer not to think about it.

10:52 am

Smelling salts someone ......

Bon Jour!

11:04 am

Bye TO - good to see you as well.

11:04 am

11:04 am

i keeplooking for"oolong" and Eunuch". they are not there :(

11:04 am

AH and JM = Aldous Huxley and Jim Morrison

11:04 am

oh

11:04 am

So, ask me the question and I'll amaze everybody by my lightning fast response.

11:05 am

So, Ata, what was the question?

11:05 am

especially now you know the answer!

11:05 am

What's a little detail like that got to do with anything?

11:05 am

what household object do AH adn JM have in common

11:05 am

doors!

11:05 am

WOW!

11:06 am

Wow Haz you are SOOO clever!

11:06 am

but why though?

11:06 am

***falling over at shock***

11:06 am

*satisfaite de moi-meme'

11:06 am

Parce que Jim Morrison was in the Doors.

both gay?

11:06 am

oui, je sais ca! Mais Aldous Huxley?

11:06 am

its along the same lines as "42"

11:07 am

And Aldous Huxley wrote doors of perception

11:07 am

hi I'm new

11:07 am

oh dear

11:07 am

* especialment satisfaite de moi-meme'

11:08 am

oh! TY. I forgot about that!

11:08 am

KEvin Bacon and George Bush?

11:08 am

Hi jp

11:08 am

11:12 am

*looks round for fm but can't see her*

11:12 am

*like the Cheshire Cat my smile is still here ... :) *

11:13 am

I know. It's worrying when you know that clothes are falling off her - might she slide down a grating?

11:13 am

Maybe to be on the safe side, FMitch, you should always carry a rope and a grappling iron.

11:14 am

Oh OK, ties end of the rope to the PB

11:14 am

ruru - fires anywhere near you?

11:14 am

Safety first! You know it makes sense.

11:15 am

near.. but not too close

11:15 am

1:08 pm

1:09 pm

That's Virginia smoked [excuse the sp]

1:10 pm

country ham is salt cured... like when you cook it, it leaves behind a salty residue

Scarlet...she is improving and was sent home yesterday...there was no brain damage

1:55 pm

Thanks for your prayers...we both needed them!

1:55 pm

Oh, that is wonderful news, phaeton... both husband and I were praying for Emily. {{hugs}}

1:55 pm

Hi, icepyro!

1:56 pm

hi phaeton, glad to hear that Emily is o.k.

1:56 pm

Thank you pabtrek

1:57 pm

I know her father was pretty shaken as he heard the crash and was the first to reach her.

1:57 pm

That's awful...

1:57 pm

how terrible for him,phaeton

1:58 pm

Thankfully they had a very good local hospital where they live

1:58 pm

I had no idea where in Japan any of this happened, so my prayers included a place close to the family... I am so relieved... I can't imagine your terrors, phae.

1:59 pm

scar... that is the best written dissertation of indie I have ever seen lol

1:59 pm

(sorry to interrupt)

1:59 pm

It's hard to know anything about foreign hospitals...you hear so much about the family having to take care of the patient...Iwakuni, Japan...there is a marine base there

1:59 pm

I wish I could take some credit for it, ice... but I was extremely lazy this morning and nipped it from Wiki... Thanks anyway... LOL

2:00 pm

weird, i'm having more trouble with the little boxes than the big today

2:03 pm

The tale is in my bio, Con... but now: all is very, very good!

2:03 pm

Scarlet...I think FM stocked the PB with champagne

2:05 pm

bbl

2:05 pm

goodmorning everyone

2:05 pm

bye icepyro

2:06 pm

hi lynxxx

2:06 pm

Just read your tale, Scarlet! What a time you've had! I am very, very pleased for you that all is well and wish you all the best of all wonderfulness so soothe the time you';ve been through.

2:06 pm

Scarlet...just read your bio...you should have been in my prayers...so glad things have turned out on the positive side! God's Blessings are everywhere!

2:07 pm

Hi Lynxxx

2:07 pm

Thank you both from the bottom of my ancient heart!! ;

2:07 pm

Scarlet - great news about your husband. I fought the same thing for 3 years, now 7 years clear. Wonderful doctors!

2:08 pm

It ain't that ancient dear girl!

2:08 pm

That's wonderful Lynxxx, congratulations!

2:08 pm

Thank you so much, lynxxx... and I am sorry that you had to endure this disease..it's a bi***!

2:09 pm

And even more wonderful about yr granddaughter Phae, such a relief!

2:10 pm

Oh, that's great Lynxxx. So good to hear some good stories about the dreaded C. i have lost two dear friends in the last two years to it. So it's refreshing (and hope restoring) to read of your positive experiences!

2:10 pm

Thanks lynxxx...we are relieved that all turned out so well. Had many around the world praying for her

2:12 pm

It seems to touch all of us in one way or another... how I hate it!

2:12 pm

Cancer, I mean... this community is so rare and compassionate...

2:13 pm

Well I think that even if they have cures...they won't make any money from it. So, they use medications instead

2:13 pm

It's almost as if it's replaced the plague! It certainly puts a lot of things into a different perspective when you're confronted with it - in one way or another...

2:14 pm

I didn't know that you came through malignant melanoma, lynxxx.. thankfully, you are seven years free! continued success with the awful thing.

2:14 pm

So true...our immediate family has been blessed not to have had to deal with any cancer yet

2:15 pm

erm... just an 'inbetweeny' ... what's that silly en4 word?

2:15 pm

good morning Lyn and everyone

2:15 pm

Good morning Andrew!

2:15 pm

Except my mother who found a lump at age 84...and is cancer free now and is 91

2:15 pm

EN **d lang syne...

2:15 pm

Hi, acoom!

2:15 pm

this is a hard one :(

2:16 pm

i have only played this game for 3 days, but i have to commend you guys b/c i have noticed that what Scarlet said is true. For an online group, you are all so appropriate, and kind - this is a refreshing change from the typical chat areas - birds of a feather! :)

2:16 pm

thanks scarlet - the one combination I didn't try!

2:16 pm

It's a brain twister, acoom.

2:16 pm

Just a bit AC

2:17 pm

LOL, Con. Hi, missbeeze.. this is such an amazing and caring community. Yes, it's completely different in that most people like to spell out their thoughts rather than use "textspeak"...

2:17 pm

Hi everyone....I'm just popping by on my way to boxerjam.com to play a few games.

2:17 pm

i see that - just watching and playing for 3 days - it is very nice and refreshing - and no invaders even. i love it! :) thanks everyone!

2:17 pm

Good thing too...i'm no good at

2:18 pm

hi Chiley

2:18 pm

'textspeak'*

2:18 pm

Hi, chiley... thanks for the name of the site.. like I need another addiction! LOL

2:18 pm

Once in awhile there is an invader...we call them trolls

2:18 pm

We do have our share of 'invaders' occasionally

2:18 pm

oh, me neither - i thought you meant the game - i thought you were pretty good!

2:19 pm

oh Scarlet, they have many word games....I really like it.

2:19 pm

well they are probably quick to leave lynxxx, as they probably can't keep up with the quick wit :)

2:19 pm

Thank you, chiley... word games R 'us...

2:19 pm

Although, in the state i live in 'trolls' are the people born in the lower part of the state

2:19 pm

Strike a match is my favorite. When I'm not here that is where I while away my time.

2:20 pm

and with that.....I'm off to play a few games before starting dinner. Toodles everyone.

2:20 pm

I have played Fowlwords on kewlbox.com and ScrabbleBlast on whatchamacalllit and a few other ones.. I love Noggin and Wordtwist on Facebook.

2:20 pm

we all generally make it an unacceptable environment for trolls

2:20 pm

bye Chiley

2:21 pm

This is a troll-free zone

2:21 pm

Later, chiley!

2:21 pm

groan

2:21 pm

good one ruru!!

2:22 pm

groan?

2:22 pm

Why the groan, lynxxx?

2:23 pm

this is slow going for me today..this is a tough grid

2:23 pm

Oh, duh... it's ruru being ruru.

2:23 pm

Ruru's quick wit

2:23 pm

I second that assessment, ruru.

2:26 pm

Hi Jayde - finish the 5 w. dble vowel

2:26 pm

Got that one, but thanks phaeton

2:36 pm

2:36 pm

Well, not your dress but a dress! ;-)

2:37 pm

It

2:37 pm

scarlet - glad to see you & that all is now looking up; had been missing you. Prayers for continued well -being. Just passing through at moment.

2:37 pm

It is all a mess with a dog...

2:37 pm

2:37 pm

Thank you, nDan... that is so sweet!

2:38 pm

bye Jayde

2:38 pm

thank you lynxxx

2:38 pm

aaarrgghhh!!! slurrp slurrp! *holds head in hands*

2:39 pm

LOLOLOOL

2:39 pm

yw Con

2:40 pm

My kids call me open minded - but that's only 'cos my brain fell out!

2:40 pm

In that case..you should wear a 'brainbucket'

2:40 pm

**snort**

2:40 pm

Have you any patented one, phae?

2:40 pm

those are called helmets

2:41 pm

I always keep my brain bucket right next to my chair....be prepared I say

2:41 pm

*ones*

2:41 pm

Just the normal 'motorcycle helmet', Scarlet

2:41 pm

LOL!! brainbucket????

Hi can anyone clue me the last ho5/16 plz?

2:42 pm

OOOOOhhhhh... what if it seeps out through an ear or an eye or a mouth or nostrils.. or, or...

2:42 pm

I like brainbucket!

2:42 pm

Illegal liquor, Sandie

2:42 pm

ho5.16 illegal or homemade booze

2:42 pm

That's what the buckets for I THINK, scarlet

2:42 pm

I tell motorcyclists that don't want to wear a helmet that they should at least carry one so when they have an accident they have some where to put their brain after they scrape it up off the pavement

2:42 pm

very wise

2:42 pm

Ah... you and ruru are too logical for me to handle today, Con.. LOL

Thanks so much lynxxx

2:43 pm

wow Phae - very graphic but very true

2:43 pm

logical no.... irreverant.. yes...

2:44 pm

Hi, k21!

2:44 pm

SOunds like bad road pizza phaeton

2:44 pm

In your case, ru.. it's one in the same...

2:44 pm

my brain doesn't mind, ruru... ;)

2:44 pm

Hiua Scarlet!

2:44 pm

It makes sense to me...here in the states we are required by law to wear a seatbelt in our cars...but cyclists don't always have to wear helmets

2:44 pm

I agree

2:44 pm

k21... is that you in the icon? If so, you are beautiful!

2:45 pm

i know you were cluing it earlier, but i missed the clue for al 7/28....

2:45 pm

cyclists do tend to go just a bit slower than motorists...

2:45 pm

Every state has different laws on helmets...but the federal gov'ment passes law for automobiles...doesn't make a lot of sense to me

2:46 pm

eieie...add double vowel to the al5...ET one

2:46 pm

Yes con...but when those faster cars hit the slower motorcycles. OUCH!!! Been there...done that

6:26 pm

my favorite thing about some of the toilets in Japan was the use of the water that would fill the tank at the top. It came thru a faucet into a sink so you could wash your hands and then continued to the tank to be used later as the flush. Rather eco friendly

6:26 pm

sorry Red, wasn't being offensive, was just teasing - I have never seen anything but flushing toilets in France - in Paris and in the South along the Riviera

If you are interested have a look at Female Factory Cascade Tasmania

8:12 pm

8:14 pm

go kaz go!

http://www.femalefactory.com.au/FFRG/c ascades.htm

8:14 pm

8:19 pm

Lady...that's an interesting article...the Harmony was the ship on the TV show last night...they followed several "passengers" lives, and then found People related to them in current times and talked to them about their ancestors...amazing stuff!

Yes but were they convicts or free settlerS?

sorry im really bad with history

8:21 pm

dan, please answer her question, so I can go to bed

8:21 pm

convicts...including a couple of 11 year olds who had death sentences commuted so they could be sent there...the women on board sold themselves to passing ships/sailors and in ports of call to get better food and other items so they could survive the voyage

lol inge!

Oh thats a whole different kettle of fish

8:22 pm

hi inge...LOL

8:22 pm

hi Inge!

Women were treated like cattle

8:22 pm

I love history, dont know anything about Asutralia though

I love history too

http://www.jenwilletts.com/Convict%20S hips.htm

Port Arthur or Tasmania is one of the places that and NSW was were they ditched convicts and free settlers

8:24 pm

check out the revised citizenship test for the US. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/254613 01/

Dan: Google female convict ship harmony for more infomation. My parents live in tassie

8:25 pm

not these ladies...the leader of the ladies was a shoplifter who taught them to run a business on their own, and how to profit from "what they had"...when they finished their sentences, most moved from Hobart to the nearby towns (Sydney?) and became property/business owners...one of the 11 year olds married into the town ruling family and owned 1/3 of the town when she died...her, not her husband...he only owned 1/4!

They weren't ladies and Sydney is in another state across the straights

I had to sit a similar test dawg to become a Canadian citizen

One of my favourite convict stories was a young man that got transported for stealing stays and bonnets. He was lashed on the ship for 'unnatural acts with fellow prisoners' He was sent to Port Arthur whipped and chained for being a work shirker. Finished his sentence never seen again

8:28 pm

need help with un 6/21 and 8/55 pretty please
