howdy Aloy!
ty aloy
Oh yes, very much so indeed, and listening to the news today and the release of those kidnapped people in Colombia, he was even more so -- no talk of post-traumatric syndromes and the like
yw.. (-:
I"m back, with an icon clue
ALL I can say is G-d bless him!
Dr -- he was one of many like him in those days
I know Jilli but I think they are amazing... THe lady I took piano from was married to a Pearl Harbor survivor and I was amazed by tht as well.
They are a different breed as they say.
sorry, gang, haven't had any time to enjoy this grid and provide clues, and won't tomorrow, hence my Happy Birthday, America the Beautiful.
Yeahhhh America....happy 4th yanks!!!!

glad to hear lindy!
just did u used to play tangle??
yes wild....is that you wildcat great player on tw? :)
lol don't know about that ... but hi!
lol yeah that's you! too modest and hi!
thank god some of us still use our old names
LOL
have you not been playing on scramble (facebook)
yes
but I never see anyone I know
it's not fun that way
on what name?
same
I'm always wildcat
well if you subscibe to yahoo.com tangleword everyone tells their names...
yup yup
you're lucky they accepted that name...they wouldn't accept mine so just used my real name
but my icon there shows a tw grid!!!! lol
well they didn't but Iput it in my profile
yeah it still does
they've expanded the choices of room on scramble...I usually play in the 5x5 long words meaning 4 or more words
but I also enjoy babble very much too
I'm usually in super scramble
ain't putting all my eggs in one basket anymore!
lol
well sometimes I play in the 5x5 grid social .....but there they take 3 letter words which I'm not too keen on
yeah
well it's lovely to see you again wild......several tw'ders play here ..
who else?
dartO1, westford, volleyballDee ? darn forget her actual name
Halfway without list or clues! Now I'll take a little break.
nice 2 c u 2
bananafour but not so often lately
thx wild...hope you enjoy it here
it's been good so far
does anyone do the word challenge in facebook? I play scramble there too :)
one of many options
do you really
word challenge?
same name?
I accept game challenges
what's the word challenge?
me too wild
its like word twist
I (blush) find facebook a bit difficult to navigate but scramble is not difficult to find
good ole goose alert
it can be tricky just
i got my all time record there a few days ago...u can challenge friends or just play alone
guess not then kaz
never heard of it
will have to look for it tho
i actually agree Just...no blush required!
I think I played that...
if you are a wordy you will like it wild!
you basically play yourself to hopefully beat your best score?
and i think anyone that plays babble falls into that category lol
am I a wordy just?
am I a wordy just?
u can Just or you can challenge friends to see who scores higher in a game
laaaaaaaaaaag
lol yes yes
hehe
my reputation precedes me

congrats for going pro wildcat..
sometimes there is lag in the chat...
ty ru
I can look! Just not touch :)
no it's the whole thing
and at 2am babbletime there is a hiccup wherebye time stands still for a minute or 2
usually at 2 am grid time it is really bad, we call that the hiccup. For the rest, it mostly behaves, but we have occasional lag issues.
*what 1Mar said*
lol
Fireworks
phantom: connect
I went to check on bunny--she is under the couch and eating the greens I gave her.
wow nice flosey wtg!
Yahoo Flosey!
woopee!!!! flosey well done
nj flo
Flosey are you getting faster and faster every day?
she will be fine, Scrabbler. She will want your cuddles and comfort soon enough.
ty - sometimes maybe ruru - but other times I think I spend too much time at this
WTG flosey! You are getting so GOOD at this!
it keeps your brain sharp, flosey ;)
yep flosey is fast and loose!
spend too much time here????
no one does that
She growled when I went to pet her, Sprite, and also with hiding under the couch I know she wants to hide. That she is eating makes me happy.
fast I know... loose is new to me :)
watch out u could be next
no, never too much time here, so many great friends
gret chats
loose friends?
**great chats too
she probably feels a little betrayed and thinks you are not so nice as you seemed, Scrabbler. But that will not last. You won her over before, you will now.
Yes, Flosey, I stay here just to chat, even when I am done with the grid or when I have given up.
Yes, Sprite, I must be patient.
oh i didn't miss JUST did I?
*also loves to chat with her babble buddies*
indeed Scrabbler, babble friends can give a lift when needed
not unless she sneaked out without telling, Lind, lol
she wouldn't
See, someone is ALWAYS here! I awoke at 2 AM and knew I could enter Babble Land for friendship + comfort.
*hugs Scrabbler*
lol sprite thanks
hi scrabs
TY Sprite!
JUST are you still there????
Always here for my rabbitat sister hugs!!!!
yep!
up to her eyebrows in the grid, but still here
Sprite, my friend is traveling to Amsterdam in Sept to visit a childhood friend that has lived there for many years. I will tell her to look up Sprite in the phone book.

litrickway
Cheers to all! *holding up glass of ice water**
well I knew that's where Napa Valley is but you have Canadian flag - confused me

I am carrying the Canadian Flag until we get rid of George Bush
you;re gonna pay m'dear tomorrow morning!
lol, good idea ruru
yeah he usurped our flag, our country.....
won't get up til afternoon Just!!
Morning all. Happy 4th July to all my American babble buddies.
no you won't, not if your drink enough water with it. One glass of water for each glass of alcohol will help :D
Hi frances
maybe even after that lind..lol
don't matter lindy.....you'll pay then
go ruru if you can go like a Canadian!! LOL
hi Frances, and happy independance day to you too.
hey frances
heheh

Do you know that I just noticed the Q tile and I got here 30 min ago!
I stick to my gin n tonic......great summertime drink!
and wintertime too....AnyTime!!!
**worried about Lindy not having a hangover**
G & T / WInter...nope
as kiwi would say....q's done and dusted!
lindrick has been passing the effect to scrabbler
"negro" was not found in the dictionary?!!!
happy 4th everyone
I never have a hang over scrabs not to worry!!
Scrabbler, I'd say you are a tad distracted ;)
lucky you
thanks I think ndan!!
Hi Dan. Nope, I don't imbibe, I am just tired and got out of bed as I could not sleep.
what me ruru thanks!!
wouldn't she say quonquered and quoped with?
lol she might..depending on what she's drinking!
isn't it crazy, pink? If you see all the derogative words that are valid, then what on earth is wrong with negro, which is not?
That is qooky, Sprite.
lol 1Mar, too true. Love our Kiwi.
enable is politically correct
er.. politically quorrect
no way, ruru. It has valid words for all kinds of folk.
I mean, BAD valid words.
yep spritey we shore do!
yeas but those are about women and not necessairly race
And the Enable dictionary also has plenty of made-up words.
not true either, ruru. Some bad racist words are valid. And you must go to the sin bin now.
whadidIsay?
ra4, ruru
ra4 ruru
whatever it was ruru you lost!!
uh.........
live with it!!
have another cocktail ..lind
also no 4 5
lol
I was born in the sin bin
beer ruru
whatever!
I must live in sin bin
lol
spawned by sin, living it evilly, that is our ruru
So when is it time for the scotch, Lind--you said that is next.
LOL, Sprite
and I like it LOL
There isn't an evil bone in my body
have both scrabs!! beer and whiskey!!
hmmm .......in your humble opinion lol
ruru, you rock and you know it. Lots of backbone, little bad bone.
hello again :)
Hi Jill!
wb jilli!
hi jilli! Great icon!
ty sprite!
what's wrong with a little bad bone?
jilli, echec is not valid! So glad you came online so I could vent that to someone who understands :)
nothing ruru, it is part of your charm
hi jilli
hey scrabs
tomorrow is Babbler Day in Sidney, BC :) -- 7 of us meeting for lunch!
that is fabu jill
we heard, jilli, flosey just told us. Sounds wonderful. I am jealous!
little back bone maybe ruru!!
have a wonderful time jilli
too many perfectly good words are not valid -- and too many bad ones are!
night jilli!!!
uhhh lind......don't think jilli's leaving yet lolol
you leaving, lindy? Not me just now...
but it's seems that you, m'dear are gone!
lind wouldn't know that
all pavlov dogs here. They see 'have a good time' and off they go with their bye byes LOL
Lindy, do you know that you have said hello to me 3 times so far since I entered? Your blood alcohol concentration is quite adequate, missy.
lolol poor lindy!
Jilli you never cease to amaze me!!
you are funny, Lindy!
she just wants you to feel really welcome, Scrabbler
or lucky lindy...!
ah...I missed something. Lindy has been hitting the bottle?
bottles
bottles
bottlezzzzzz jilli!
I must be off, darn. Back later, therapy now. *hugs* to you all, I enjoyed your company immensely.
Why do I amaze you, lindy?
Hello again! I bought " a little" stamps online...
worried about my blood iron scrabs!!
worried about my blood iron scrabs!!
to the point where the bottle starts hitting Lindy, jilli
worried about my blood iron scrabs!!
And now she is repeating herself, LOL
oh whatever!
tc spritey!
there was a bird we heard in Shanghai whose song said "One more bottle!" Never found out what bird that was...
What is that, ajv?
Is anyone here making any sense?
Hi eveyone - back again armed with coffee and scones with jam..... :)
I think I am jilli...but what do I know
I used a little over 100 euros to stamps...
and not that ever scrabbler did but repaeat herself
lindy, why are you tanked?
lindy...is that single malt? hope so!
Hi Lorrie
why not jilli....may as well be happy
not quite jilli but wish it was so!!
Lindy, I know it is just the system hiccupping here.
hiccup whoops
Happy 4th July, Scrabbs and anyone else from the US here!
Yes, today is a party day then night in the US.
poor Tinkerbell, Lorrie!
Hehehe - Yes, such a shame, jilli! :)
no ac5 7, no ec4 6, no funky fa5 18, just og5 14 go4 7 or 7 36 [southern plutotian quote]

strange- all but one chat entry vanished
lind is sleeping on board
I can hear the snoring all the way over here!! Morning all
Hi FM!
LOL... G'morning FM
Well, I am going to attempt to sleep again. Back to bed I go.
Morning FM
70 words left for the daytime.
g'night scrab hope that works out for you...(as I hope it does for me too)
Night, night Scrabs
Bye Loredana! Give kisses to the rabbits!
sleep well Scrabbler give Sebastian a hug
Hi Lorrie and lore and bye Scrabs
weird things are happening -- got disconnected again ;(
just orange & black pekoe blend with a little sugar and milk - not cream, not 1/2 & 1/2, not 1% or 2%, just right [i was uppositing jellyfish-like chunks all am after drinking h20 & snoozing most of day]
Can someone clue me the theme of long he's, please?
nDan, that's how I like my tea
huh?
hi FM
Hello jilli, all well with you apart from connection problems I trust :)
oh yes, FM -- just been running around madly so a wee bit pooped
ajv he8s are difficult to clue -both begin another word for chicken he* then vowel then word for one of five and then second swap the 2nd and third vowels - weird words
I hate weird long words
Well nothing like a shot of babble first or last thing to set the day right
I like it first thing in the morning - gets the brain cells ticking for all the math at work
that would be a poultry statuette used for store window displays
thats a really good clue
babble and chat is my soothing soporific at this time of night
I have Madames' banana and milk on standy by for when Madame is ready
holy mackerel, nDan, that clue worked! Thanks!
Merci mille fois, Ermintrude!
lol
Darn it, I had forgotten that name. Haz must pay today!!
LOL, FM!
Yes, thanks Dan - that one really worked! :)
Whats the grid like today?
so far not too bad, FM, but all I'm doing is trying for NBT -- 2 tiles to go, but haven't had much time
quite difficult in places - any clues for the ors please
ha -- just got in7, so just one tile to go now
hmm may enjoy the challenge/fun a little later then, chat for now and workish sort of stuff (flipping sensible head on again)
or + increacing to pains companion
just found or5/14 -- or + pain minus last letter
ty vm got im but monkeying about a bit
jilli 6 and 7 follow from that
increasing even - 3 build
Thank you for long he's! very strange words, indeed.
ok -- hadn't looked at list yet -- ty
final sounds like backward bow companion
scot. for odd work
ty again, nDan
my last BT is the E in the 4th column -- anyone have it?
Jilli: One of a body of five elected magistrates exercising a supervisory power over the kings of Sparta.

Well done loredana.
Hi Lori, nearly missed you you were so quiet
in7 is a legal inquiry ajv
in+q5
in7 is what they conduct with a suspicious death
full of the flu from Melbourne Lynxxx
Looks up from behind pile of paperwork, Morning :)
Hi FM
I'm here too this morning.... hello everyone
hello Karys
How was your visit Lore? hope the flu developed after you had finished
i am full of flu too, had it nearly 2 weeks
G'd morning FM, Karys
morning Karys
Hello FM - as long as the paperwork doesn't get as high as Jacula's ironing, you'll be okay.
Hello Karys!
Hello Karys haven't seen you for ages! lol Haz
morning everyone
had to look back, well done Lore !
And Katie, good morning.
hi Katie!
Thanks for in7 and qu5!
Hi Kataie
oops !...
G'd morning Mrs Katie
Lynxxx got the flu several days after arriving went from Hoopers Crossing to Wonthaggi still not enough time to see everyone next time will have to make a Babble day
how is everyone?
my daughter and I saw a house today and arranged to lease it together, hope you all don't start hearing stories from me about the housemate from hell, she has 2 small children 4 and 2 whom i adore but only time will tell if i actually want to live with
we move in together in 3 weeks
If you start posting stories from the housemate from hell, we'll start a campaign to have Australia cut off from internet access. Just warning you now, Andree!
Good luck Andree enjoy as you know they dont stay young for long all the best
i don't blame you there haz!!
What Haz said..... :D
Hope it works out Andree, I'm sure it will though
All good wishes for a happy home then Andree !
Whatever happened to the HM for H?
Not that I'm not the most patient and tolerant chat reader, you understand.
good luck Andree :-)
Lol Haz, you usually say what everyone is thinking :-)
HM for H?
of course Haz understood perfectly
Yes.....
And if it does turn ugly, make sure you post about it frequently, and in excruciating detail...... :-)
housemate from hell, do keep up lynxxx :)
i have the biggest bedroom with my own bathroom and will have my own sitting room too so i can keep some semblance of sanity
I really don't know what you are talking about Haz !!!
That Karys. ALways acting the innocent.
I think I do :-)
Sorry!
That sounds as if it should work perfectly Andree, plenty of room for escape.
As long as you have your own space, Andree, it should be okay. And try soundproofing as well.
I have to go, but will be back for last 18 words
I know I do :-)
See you in a bit avj.
Bye ajv.
later ajv
bye ajv
nice yard and a veggie garden and a really lovely swimming pool, the only downside is i have been dying to get a dog but strictly no pets
I'm sure it'll work out fine Andree, and don't be intimidated by the pending i'net petition for removal if it doesn't....
It sounds lovely, Andree.
darn Andree, you were so looking forward to one!
Andree, do they have volunteer dog walkers at dog shelters near you ?
ta ra for now Granson is here see everyone tomorrow bye ..enjoy the grid !!
have no idea karys, but walking a dog i don't own is not something i would want to do
Bye loredana.
bye lore
Enjoy lore, have a good one!
I see Andree, it's something I have been thinking about. It is not fair for us to have a dog when we plan to be out such a lot.
bye lore
its a lovely house so from the owners point of view one can see why the nicer places have a no pet policy, all we saw that would allow pets was revolting
It's a pity, Andree, but I suppose you have to compromise and see it their way.
Although we'd be willing to organise a campaign on your behalf.
We woke up to a brand new foal in the field this morning, it was such a lovely thing to see just as soon as we opened the curtains.
We could send them begging e-mails and pictures of cute dogs.
Aww, that's nice Karys!
Foals are so pretty. You wouldn't want one in the house, though.
Haz is very proactive today.
It was Lori, it's the 4th one this year so far.
its the only thing i compromised on, its not that easy to find a 5 bedroom house with 2 sitting rooms and 3 bathrooms and within our budget too
I know. I don't know what's happened to me. I feel like painting banners and marching somewhere.
It sounds great, Andree - plenty of room to hide a little dog..
That thought creates such vivid pictures Haz !
if i was a sneaky type i would just get a dog and hide it when inspection time comes, but i will wait for another time
If that man from Britain who pretended to have drowned from a canoe could hide himself in his own house for years, why not one little dog? Pity he's in prison, you could ask him for advice.
I did tell the agent I mind my sons dog when they are away and that was not negotiable, he said okay as long as it doesn't come inside, don't think ruffles wants to hear that!!!
anyhow if you hear i got a dog, you will know it is without permission!!!
We won't betray you, unless the housemate from hell stories start getting wearisome.
Proactive and potential for blackmail, fearless.....
Just as well Tescos hasn't annoyed me lately.
Hello Haz, Lori, Andree, and Karys!!
you could sic spangles onto them if they do
hi pink
Good morning pink.
Hello there pink, how's little pink doing these days ?
G'd morning pink!!! ***hugs***
Spangle isn't the sort of dog that Tescos deserve.
morning Pink
Hi pink :)
strchg is too a word!
an abbreviation for stretching the truth perhaps
Meaning?
lil pink is very well karys, she is very talkative now and can even ride a bike now
Exactly lynx.
hello lynxxx and lorrie!!
Oh wow, pink, so grown up already !
she is 2 and a half and i feel as if im living with a woman lol the time really has flown b
my grandaughters name in grid for 2nd time this week gr5
*by*
i love that name
TY Andree
Is Gr5 one of the granddaughters who's going to be living with you, Andree?
another grandaughter is neve which is often in the grid
That's s impler way of spelling it than the Irish.
My friend has a grandaughter called Neve
no she is 12 and i have just had her to stay and help? me in the office for a couple of days, love her heaps but could not live with the" about to be a teeneger"
* a simpler - all my campaigning has left me without the ability to type.
I don't think her parents could spell the Irish word Haz !
campaigning Haz?
No, it's a bit tricky.
how is it spelled?
Yes, I'll be campaigning for Andree to have a dog and to be thrown off the internet if she complains too much about her daughter. The usual things. Have you any campaign requests, Katie?
& thanks for the gr clue I got 5 words from it
Niamh
Neve and Patrick are the ones going to be living with me, my daughter left her husband over a year ago, the rat was having an affair with a woman from work
Boooo to the rat.
Neve is such a lovely name. Your daughter is far better without him!
ooh, that's not good. Best that she lost him stat!
I would have gladly killed him haz
I would have gladly killed him haz
I'm glad you didn't, Andree. Although we'd have campaigned for your early release.
How is she doing now Andree?
she is doing great, it was a terrible shock to her as she adored him, but she would not hear of giving him a second chance once she made up her mind she could never trust him again
good for her andree, he didn't deserve her love!!
It must be very hard at the time but in the long run if you don't have trust you don't have anything. I'm glad shes moving on, happy wishes for her :-)
And booo to the woman with whom he had the affair.
and booo to anyone who would start anything with a married man
quite right Haz, however it was he who broke the trust and has the responsibility. I never blamed the other woman I always blamed my partner for being stupid enough to throw away what we had
I know - it's just that sometimes it feels as though men are the only ones to be blamed when an affair is discovered. The woman involved is also wrong.
***this grid sucks***
Should we start a campaign to get a new grid for today?
Yep you are right it's all a matter of degree, but in the long run I work on the principle that I am so much better off than either of them now :-)
I thought I was having a thick day, I'm glad the grid sucks rather than me
Wait, maybe that's a non-starter, others will have finished and got their fireworks and the rankings would be messed up.
***didn't wanna' interrupt the flow of conversation, just had ta' get that off my chest***
Lori, I'm glad you did :-)
she needed this year to get happy within herself, now she is actually looking forward to us moving in together, together we can afford a much nicer place
It's always comforting to know that others aren't melting the keyboard to get their words entered.
Onwards and upwards, Andree.
It'll all work out Andree, I'm sure of it. ***and this grid still sucks*** :/
a sucky grid and interesting coversation, oh and it's Friday yay!!
That's one of my sayings Haz !
hi fmitch
My sister in law gave me a CD to play when things were getting better. I played it about 6 months after the break up when I could see light at the end of the tunnel and it was such a lovely uplifting song.....will try and find it later
And a good, positive saying it is as well. Most of my sayings include the phrase 'The wise woman'
I thought I could do the grid before I go to the Zoo, but it's not looking likely now
Hello Andree
You're going to the zoo, Katie?
Well, I have 42 still to find and I have only one 8
Zoo? a real Zoo or a euphamism (sp)?
There are 8s?
I know Haz, Thursday in London discussing 15,000 and a power station, Friday Twycross Zoo talking about the entrance to it!
Well there is one at least !
OMG there are 4 of them!!
i didn't know Mrs Katie was coming to my house, or I'd have cleaned up, well, no, no I wouldn't have..... :-)
there are 4 and I have 2
So it's the zoo and work combined!
Went to Twycross a couple of months ago
lol and hey Lori :)
What's that zero in my 8 box mean then? :-)
You can get to dislike people when they find non-existent 8s.
heh for Fm :-)
I have to tell them we can't help them, but hoping I still get to go round the Zoo. I only live 9 miles from it but haven't been for years
Oh Haz obsure train of thought .. I have a bone to pick with you!!
Don't give them the bad news until after you've had a VIP tour of the zoo.
And I finish with a word which looks like it comes from SG1 (sh6)... Soooo, firworks!
I guess we must live about that distance away too !
Pick away, FMitch.
i love the zoo, with 7 grandchildren i get there fairly often these days
Thanks to you (I think) jilli will now only call me Ermintrude!!
Well done, Lorrie!
Congrats Lorrie!!!
Congrats Lorrie!
Where do you live Karys, I'm in Tamworth
Well done Lorrie !
yay lorrie
Well, now, I think Atalante and I have to share the blame for that one. We both considered it a likely first name for you
congrats lorrie
Aldridge Katie, lived in Wilnecote when I first got married !
how is retirement lynxxx, sick of it yet?
Ahh so I can blame you and Ata, excellent!
Jillibus must have been reading the log. I don't think she was around at the time.
Thanks all.... Have a great day/evening and see you tomorrow! :)
if you are we could swop!!!
So, does that mean it isn't Ermintrude? Must we continue to guess?
bye lorrie
we actually live in Wilnecote, I went to the high school here and we got married in Holy Trinity on the A5........small world :-)
Have a good one Lorrie!
Two of my sons were christened there :)
not yet Andree
I could get used to Ermintrude and should write a back story to go with it like the one in Aloy's bio
back at last. Hi all :)
Hi Sprite!
Ermintrude conjures up happy memories of the Magic Roundabout. It's a comforting name.
hi sprite, better day today?
Hi Sprite
when did you live there?
wb sprite
Hello sprite.
Hello spritey sprite
My favourite program !
lol me too
Hi sprite
Oh years ago Katie, early 70's
I was amazed to discover that Eric Thompson basically made up the stories as he watched the puppets do their stuff - they bore little resemblance to the French versions.
we moved there in 1976 :-)
Such wonderful humour !
I had gone by then Katie, here to Aldridge, in fact we moved here 32 years ago today !
I've not seen the new version - but I just don't see how the old one could be made better.
I remember reading that somewhere Haz
I am always afraid to see 'new' versions of anything I enjoyed in case I am disappointed
Some things should not be allowed to be remade as they were perfect the first time, MR is in this catagory
I know. I don't understand the need to tinker with what was excellent first time around.
just got my first word for about half an hour!!
You'll never get it done before the zoo at this rate, Katie.
I'm determined to not go to the list early. Need to get ready in 10 mins so won't even be half way by then
Not rubbing it in, or anything. I'm just blessed with plain speaking this morning.
Just updated my icon to Friday silliness
Still doing the first sweep, and only 6 tiles greyed. Have I mentioned this grid sucks?
Ah, there's dear Ermintrude. She always makes me smile.
116!!!
G'd morning Dan
Congratulations nDan.
wtg nDan
Sometimes the first sweep is conducted in an air of frenzy. Not today.
i've got 6 tiles greyed but 5 of them were to begin with and the other is the i in the bottom corner!
Well done Dan !
congrats Dan
Congrats nDan
Congratulations Dan.
we love your plain speaking haz
lol Mrs Katie, counting those, I have 10 greyed! :p
There are a myriad Government departments that could use your talents Haz
my contribution from earlier: he 8 60: a poultry statue used for store window displays; for 2nd, switch 2nd 2nd & 3rd alphabetical vowels
Thank you, Andree.
thanks all; have about 5 mins before need to wake kiddos up for the july 4th 5k if any clues wanted
fmitch , haz might start campaigning against them soon, she needs a project today as she is in the mood
I've updated my icon for a clue, forgot it was Friday!! As you can see I've hit avoidance
*votes for Haz as president*
Congrats nDan & TY
mind you i would join a campaign against most government departments
Are we talking a campaign against all government departments everywhere? Because I'll need to order up extra big sheets and lots of paint.
And I'll need to remember to order the non-drip paint.
Could you leave my Government Agency out of it please, I have enough problems with campaigners as it is
everywhere is a good start
the red paint can be drippy though
Well I was thinking specifically of the introduction of plain speak - but if you are in the mood just take on the whole establishment!
The other thing is to plan out what I'm going to say so that I don't start off with a huge DOWN WITH and end up trailing off with government departments.
cleared indian butter(s) alert
Down with pants!
Thanks sprite I missed those
So, what IS your government agency, Katie? We need to know so as to leave it alone.
pants or trousers? ... or both?
yvw, I had missed them as well, though I might not be the only one ;)
Down with pants? Down with paints? Done with paints?
Both of course. I'm bilingual.
It's called English Partnerships.
English Partnerships. You see, that's the sort of thing I mean. What does it mean?
Anyone seen my quango, I know it's here somehwere under the ountains of paperwork.
The Environmental health people have an office near here. They call themselves 'Northern Group Systems'
plainspeak in govt agencies? what will we do with the millions put out of work?
Lol Haz, it's deliberate. We are responsible for sustainable communites and delivering regeneration and housing growth.
You can guarantee that if you have a rat problem, the first thing that comes to your mind is not 'Must look up Northern Group systems' in the phone book.
Katie's gone into government speak. Can we stage a rescue?
and fast
You mean you build houses?
Subject to Parlimentary consent we will become the Homes & Communities Agency in December.
it sounds normal except for the delivering regeneration - that's sci fi
So you build and maintain houses.
No point asking a straight question Haz
Seriously I spend my day in government speak. Yesterdays joy was renewable energy when we were talking about ESCROs and MUSCOs :-)
And do you have a fancy logo?
my body delivers regeneration too. It is not that weird.
but not in housing
ooch is too a word! A Scottish ouch. yeesh this grid is annoyitating me.
Mainly build Haz, so when Gordon Brown talks about the 3,000,000 houses we need, we are responsible for facilitating that
Och is a great word, it can be said with venom.
I could have sworn phampyres sleep in a cophen.
Katie could I request then that you stop building round here PLEASE
I'm the och less monster I guess.
You are responsible for doing that. Facilitating is another of these words that has sprung up and is used whenever possible.
Our logo is a bit boring at the moment, waiting with baited breath to see the new one. We are also banned from calling the new agency HACA, for obvious comedy reasons and have to call it HCA
annoyitating sounds like a 'Bushism'
ah well, have a good day & good luck in the effort; Happy 4th to any early risers
Where is here FM?
Told ya' I wuz bilingual. :p
Lol Lori
Berkshire
The logo can't be any worse than the London 2012 one. It's ugly!
Happy 4th of July to you dan, have fun today.
Lori, you are multilingual. I am sure you write about 5 languages I don't facilitate myself.
Oh good that's not my area :-) I've got enough problems with my Eco-Town. Protestors are very good a logos on signs Haz!!
sprite you are our star of language here in BabbleLand
We had a happy time yesterday on the log using Franglais. Such a joyous mangling of languages.
Lori beats me without even trying!
and I loved 'annoyitating'. Might need to remember that.
Ok going to get ready for my meeting but taking the afternoon off so will be back later for another attempt. Need another 5 before list time. Have a good day everyone
I knew my lack of skill would come in handy some day.
bfn Katie, and have fun.
Have a good day Mrs katie.
bye Katie, enjoy your visit
Bye Katie - say hello to the animals for us.
bye katie

Morning FM. How about www.192.com?
warm wind alert too
well Hello Frances, long time!! thats a good idea too
sprite I think someone mentioned the dolphin is here today as well
I just blew in sprite.
hi Frances!
G'd morning Frances. The grid sucks!
FMitch: but it isn't :(
I've had cricket every day for two weeks FM. I'm zonked!
hi Frances
Rats I really will have to look at the grid before too long. Funny I drove past a game in full swing yesterday and thought of you Frances
Thank you FM.
Doh brain is going sprite not the dolphin but the goose
ohhhh yes! Thanks FMitch, had missed the goose :)
They both like water FM
:)
I'd best go, not finding any words, just sitting here using the laptop as a hot water bottle and I am sure there are better ways to keep warm. Bye everyone!
bye lynxxx
lol Lynx. Sleep tight!
bye lynxxx, have a good (and warm) one!
Nighty nigh lynxxx
Bye lyn
33 left and floundering. My dreams of Lickety free are fading..... ***insert undue and excessively sympathetic posts here***
25 and really struggling now, it's the 7's that are a problem !
Where is your resolve, your stiff upper lip? Pfft, Lori we expect better things from you!!
It looks like I've come back at a good time. Call yourself a Canadian, Lori? With talk like that?
My resolve has been remove-itated.
Ah good timing, I was trying to think of a Haz'ism to kick her with :)
Well, get it back.
Get up and go has got up and gone ?
Today is not a day for mollycoddling.
Your lack of motivisioning is saddifying, Lori
saddifying lol
ROFL
wb Hazinator.
If you can't find those words, Lori, who do you think is going to? The word fairies?
oh so THATS what lickety is... a word fairy!!!!
:D
Well duh, of course haz. You don't think I'm gonna' stand on my own t feet, do you?
Of course they will Haz ... OMG you're not going to tell me they had an affair with Valerie too *wimper*
13 left here taking a break, happy babbling all
Bye Andree.
bfn Andree
Oh well done Andree...bye
Nicely done Andree. Catch ya' later
The Valerie thing was news to me. I knew she had been engaged to Pete Murray for a long time. She must have had a thing for all men Peter.
Peter Andre may be just a wee bit too young for her.
eeewwww
Sorry, must still have universal translator set to US
And then there's Stringfellow. There's a thought.
That's it, I'm going to Lickety's since I got little or no sympathy, and it's all your faultses!
good morning everyone :)
Actually that scenario doesn't phase me - help what does that say!!
I'd blame FM, Lori. She's the one giving you a hard time.
hi Nanette
Lori, its not my fault.... i just got here :(
Good morning Nono.
Morning Nono and happy 4th
G'd morning Nono! You are of course exempted from the aforementioned faultses, since you wuzn't here at the time of the offenses.
ty FM and Happy 4th to all my fellow Americans
Ooh, yah, Happy 4th to all my stateside brethrenettes!
I still think the Americans will come to their senses some day soon and realise that they'd be better off with the old country.
heh heh hh, Ermintrude's fault. What's the history of that FM?
Hi Everyone....Haz, if we had known that we'd have 8 yrs of GW Bush, we would never have left the old country.
G'd morning chiley
I know, chiley. If only you had all had crystal balls.
And good morning, by the way.
*** snort ***
sorry, back again, was phone
Happy Friday to you!
Hi chiley, you too !
I'll return in a minute...must go put a pot of coffee on.
hi chiley
hello Chiley, right back at ya with the happy 4th wishes
back in a bit
sorry, phone got in the way there. Lori - ask Haz re The Cow :))
I'm glad there was a re in between Haz and the cow.
lol
Haz, what's with the cow?
lol
Well, Lori, Fmitch announced one evening that the F in her name was not actually her first name. That left the door open for us to guess what the first name really was. Both Atalante and I decided that Ermintrude might be a contender.
From then on, she has been christened Ermintrude by Jillibus.
Fermintrude?
Ermintrude being the name of the cow in a beloved series 'The Magic Roundabout'
*giggle @ sprite*
Ermintrude. it has a ring.
sure does
lolol, I like it.
She has never told us what it really is. So guess away.
It is a name with possibilities. I think I go with your choice.
FMitch, it is even a command, did you see? Erm.... intrude!
Can we get a starting letter, FMitch, just in case some babblers come up with silly ideas. We like to stay sensible.
I am growing into it too (the name that is). A is the letter so perhaps Aloyisius Merganser could be my nom de plume?
Babblers and silly ideas?? Please.
I know, chiley. Hard to imagine, but it does sometimes happen.
yah FM, give us a letter. W'll behave.
We try our best to keep things on a 'within bounds of possibility' level.
*does not believe Lori for a nanosec*
A eh?
a straight A babbler
Attracta.
***Puts on my best sincere-itized face***
And yes, Attracta is a real name.
*is still not impressified*
It would be a good one for knock knock jokes though.
lol Haxz
well, minus the X
'Attracta Lottie Attention'
Attracta Land?
'Dressing for success' by Attracta Lottie Attention
Attractalante
brilliant, Haz
Now for more A names.....
Could it be the name of a place - like Brooklyn Beckham after where he was (cough) conceived?
Afform I. Dable.
phone again
you can run, but you can't hide, FM
We can brainstorm with gusto while she's away.
Acor Dianne?
Afternoon Morning Itch
Abom Enable Babbler
problem is, she isn't. She is quite good actually
Aidan Abet?
lol, I like that one
Yes, Aidan Abet sounds suitably conspiratorial.
Because, you wouldn't believe it, but FMitch does sometimes hatch little schemes and plans.
she does??
Oh yes. Don't forget the PB and its furnishings.
And the Old Clueriosity Shop.
still miss the PB the way she made it
I step away from the log for a mo and lose the thread totally
We're still deciding on what your name is. Lori reckons AidanAbet.
Ah the good old days of the visual PB, I had such fun putting that together with the help of so many. Sighs, and I had such high hopes for Lori
back again
wb Andree
She said she would be sensible. Maybe that's the best she can do at being sensible.
Anastasia! You're really that missing Russian princess!
Since you left Andree we have all been sooooo busy doing housework and office work and have only just got back ourselves - honest!
Bowing low in your royal presence.
*Adjust tiara and waves*
i am the most sensible one around, use my real name, probably because i would forget anything else!!!
OR....Amelia Earhart
my last one, S6. I have sc 2 x, se x 6, sh x 4. Does anyone know what I am missing and Please, can I get a clue?
sparkly things?
Addon Morewords
oh no...I guess you have it
That's a good thought, chiley. Could FMitch be any of a number of missing women? Or did Amelia Earhart disappear, or am I thinking of someone else.
sh x 5 sprite
Ameil Earheart Ermintrude Aloyisious Merganser FMitch - Now thats a name to live up to!!!
5/12, 5/14, 6/30, 4/7, 4/5
Lori, I am missing one word, 6 letters, starting S.
Yes she disappeared. Not a trace of her or her plane was found.
morning everyone
lol ***slaps forhead and shuts up***
It certainly is. Princess Tiiiiiaaaaammmmmmmmmiii will be jealous.
Morning carlee
ok, sh6/30 it is. Can I beg for a clue, please? Have been at it for 20 minutes now.
Oh sprite - I see an advertising revenue opportuinty there if I change my name by deedpoll
hi carlee, wb
good morning carlee
I'd love to see you rich, FMitch.
morning sprite...nono.. happy 4th of july ...
hi carlee
you're a poet and didn't know it
hi andree
ty carlee
Don't have it sprite. Sorry
what can I say... it is a talent I hay.
lol
oooh brain kicks up a gear - nevermind clue icons... rhyming clues are the order of the day
hi lori.... sorry...missed u in there..u were being so quiet :op
sh 6 is stoopid sh + 4th vowel + *** sighted, not near sighted
but not on the "sounds like" basis, more poetical is what I ahve in mind or Dr Zeuss perchance
It's how Humphrey Bogart would say it (sh6)
wow... thanks Lori. Weird one. Fireworks, thanks to you.
Congratulations sprite.
Wonderful display today Sprite - Congrats
<POMPOM TOSS> for sprite....yippee!!!!!!!!
yahoooo Congrats Sprite!
I liked the grid, but it was not easy. FMitch: little she knew it, her food now was fluid.
Congratulations sprite!
I hate the grid, not that anyone asked.....
yay sprite and thx lori
I am undecided as yet..coffee brewing..so is not fair to insult it JUST yet
i am enjoying the fact that i have time to finish it, only 9 left
have to be off, bye all, thanks for the fun and company.
Go Andree go! Later sprite.
hmmm.. this grid is hard!
Bye sprite good to see you
Bye sprite.
bye sprite
Hi rex, grid may be hard but find fun in the chat :)

co8 - a word of defeat or victory depending which side you're on
thx hax
You're welcome.

Good afternoon all..........

LOL FM no Im not going to the bar until later
Good afternoon caitlyn.
could i have another clue for that co8 please? i didn't get the last one :(
cinnamon toast....
OK I'll stand the cabana boys down for a while then
ac - you make a co8 if you defeat someone in battle. It uses the double letter tile.
They need to have a rest after yesterday!!
thanks Haz! that did the trick.
pfft you and Lori have some explaining to do!!
You're welcome, ac.
I didnt see Lori there
Lori may be using her disguise kit.
what can I say....!!
116 and FIREWORKS!
Congratulations Nono!
Singing.......you say it best when you say nothing at all
Congrats NoNo!!
Congrats Nono, thats what I'll say. The rest stays locked in the bank vault
Thank goodness it's too early for Vicuna to be around to take up the chorus.
yay nono
<pompom twirlk> for nono...woot woot
I thought my singing was okay today Haz LOL
Unfortunately Vi is tied up with family so we might not be able to enjoy her dulect tones for a couple of days.
Well, there's a shame. Apart from her singing, Vi is always good for a laugh!
busyy chewing toast...no singing from me
Oh yes her daughter is visiting isnt she ?
Yours is grand, caitlyn, being from the valleys and all, but Vicuna's voice is very individual.
how do u play this
LOL Thank you Haz
So nicely put Haz
Think I'll go make some pancakes, Happy babbling eveyrone
You find all the words in the grid that are four letters long or more. They have to touch but you can go in any direction. Look at Help above for a fuller explanation.
We dont know ri - let us know when youfigure it out
Have a great day NoNo see you soon
LOL FM
lol...thanks
I think my plain speaking is wearing off. Earlier on I wouldn't have called Vicuna's voice individual.
<snort>
i must be dumb...can't find one
FIREWORKS
<POMPOM TOSS> for andree
Congratulations Andree!
those last few took forever
Woohoo congrats Andree
If you keep looking ri6 some may become clear. There's what goes on the top of a house for a start,
oof...i JUST saw the goose... coffee must be kicking in
ooh - ri6 could be a clue one day
ri6? now i know why no one likes the grid and i liked it i must be doing adifferent one
morning, all.
Why does ricrac jump into my head for ri6. It's not very likely I'd ever be sewing it.
am 1/2 way..not too terribly bad in the grid dept
Andree ri6 refers to a new babbler, just below, ri64tx.
ok..i got it!!
Yesterday was a difficult day, but I made an appointment with a counselor for next week, and will be okay.
thanks guys! I'm Ralph from Texas
duh!!
There is an ri6 today - Im not even looking at the grid.
And you can make it plural as well, ri.
hi angel
I bet you didnt miss me........stoopid computer kicked me off Hi angel
I should be a detective. I'd have placed money on you being from Texas. Happy 4th July!
hi ralph
hi ralph...Happy Fourth of July
hi all!!
urff hits self with fish and leaves 'that' to other babblers to explain to hte newcomer.
okay, is it ri or rl?
And were you born in 1964?
Hi ri
sometimes i think you are a detective haz
RL64TX
ok i give up searching for my last 2 words. can someone please clue the 2 he8's? thx
Angel - whats wrong/happened?
It's the nosiness ge4, Andree.
thank you, i thought my eyes were playing tricks!
The he8 words are difficult! I'll do my best to clue them for you.
chicken+vowel+q4
clearly. i can't even find them by cheating with a word generator
he8/60 - three letters for a female bird, a vowel, then one member of five (think five babies born together)
welcome to the grid rl
OF course she is Andree - she is the Cheif of Babble Police after all
The second one is the three letter bird, a different vowel, then a female monarch, but using only one of the usual vowels.
thanks haz
We don't like to say that using resources is cheating. It's just being resourceful!
you're wonderful. got them both :)
Excellent, ac!
in that case i'm very resourceful
Oh no smugness alert!!!
So am I!
wierd words those
anyway, Fireworks
yay acoom
I could only be smug if I had known those words already or had managed to creatively type them!
Congrats acoom!!
Congratulations ac.
LOL
cheers. see you later. time to do some work
Bye ac.
Bye acoom
I should get myself outside while it's still nice, so I'll take a break. Back later!
and goodnight from me, happy babbling all
Goodnight Andree!
Bye Haz and Andree
oh Haz. i noticed your daughter is in NZ. that's where i'm from :) hope she's having fun
Bye Haz and Andree

Hi nance and dorens
my foster bunny bijou was spayed yest
Scrabbler can i suggest Reiki for the bunny
ohhhhh, bet she wants to lay low today
awwww - i hope she gets better soon - is it true about them exponentially breeding?
i couldn't sleep and was here at 2am chatting + finding words--someone is always here in babble land
lol
is there a theme for today's grid?
my last word, sh6,30, please
The theme is a word from the grid, I believe.
they are fertile, nance, but unspayed bunnies are at high risk for uterine cancer, so she will be healthier without her uterus
could it be 4th of July?
don't have it yet bubba, sorry
isn't it odd that all sorts of nasty, racist words for ethnic groups are allowed in enable, but negro is not found in the dictionary?
awwwww - that's great then scrabbler
pink asked the same thing several hrs ago
Found it, ram's horn that is blown on Jewish holiday, fireworks
i sure hope my pain pill kicks in quickly

owies Nance
poor nance
i can walk - it could be much worse - i'm lucky
I wont complain about my headache
ahh, sorry to hear that nance, gentle hug and i hope the pain stops soon
there's hope for you nance, I had similar surgery in 1975 and now, years later, with yoga and pilates frequently, I often forget it ever happened
thank you guys, but what i am now is the best i'll get
Have a good 4th of July, off to start my day

good afternoon everyone :-) just back from the zoo on a lovely sunny afternoon, I've had worse days at work :-)
Thank you ANnie
Hugs Scrabbler
Hugs Katie
happy 4th July to everyone :-)
hi katie. which zoo?
hi katie
hi katie
Twycross, I had a meeting there and then went round the zoo, it was lovely
i've never been to that one...glad you had a nice day
Did you do some plain speaking, Katie?
It has the largest collection of primates in the world, it is only 9 miles away and I haven't been for about 25 years
Lovely day for you Katie
He was lovely Haz, we both found out more about what we were doing on the environment and i promised to write a letter of support but no money. He was a really interesting man, so a good day all round
That sounds good!
i like chester and port lymp( i know i spelt that wrong) and howletts
Hey Katie !! Hey Haz !
Katie, Georgia loves Twycross !
Hello Aussie!
the two lions were curled up in the corner of their area fast asleep, they so looked like larger versions of the kitties. The man I met used to run Chester Zoo
We dont live very far away from it....
Hi Aussie, she has very good taste, thought of her by the penguins
hi everyone!
Went to Twycross last year and all my family thought it was brilliant
did anyone watch house last night?
Hello TO!
i would love to go to longleat safari park but a bit far to go now
hi TO
She loves the penguins Katie....
Hi TO
OOh Sorry - Hello everyone!
hi spellit
Katie i love when the Lions lay on their back with their paws all curled over they look like giant house cats
Hello spellit - nice to see you.
hi owl, spellit
hi Spellit
HI Owl and spellit
the 1st 5 minutes katie but then i got side tracked
Hi Spellit, I'm definately going back with hubby now I've been
hi to
it was very sad lill, came home at 9.30 then watched it on sky+ ended up sobbing, good evening all round :-)
hi haz -- stepped away from the computer for a minute and missed an entire page of chat
lol we are chatty this am i see!
Hello Dorens - it's an occupational hazard. Thank goodness for the rewind button.
when we last went to chester zoo which ws in may we could hear the male lion from the other side of the park, and when we got closer , the noise was unbelievable
i haven't seen much of this series katie, but i liked all the others
the noise of the lion's ro**?
i like greys anatomy which is on after
There was 3 Tiger cubs born at Dreamworld recently very cute
ty, doren! :)
Katie that was thelast episode of the season?
Wow lill, I haven't been to a zoo since I was in Kenya, but now I've been to one I will go to others. Will try and combine Chester Zoo and Cheshire Oaks on the same trip
Katie, if you ever get the chance, Jersey zoo is worth visiting.
I got after dark tickets to the zoo earllier this year it was nearly empty it was great
back to kick out some more
we've just gotsky and i keep forgetting that i can record things
Yes herin it was..... got to wait until next year till my next fix, altough the very scary Dexter starts again here next week. I have to watch it in the day because I couldn't sleep after it otherwise
that sounds good herin
I am likely going to get Dexter from Amazon so i can watch it or down load it
Lill, the series link is just fantastic especially if you don't know what time you will get back on a given day. as the advert says "once you've got it you won't want to live without it"
lone I?
NM
Herin, it is very strange but I enjoyed it
it'll come in handy when we go on holiday in a few weeks katie, as i usually miss allmy favourite programmes, i just hope i remember to record them..lol
aniie, how are you? i haven't seen you in a while
could i have a clue for the E on the second row up I have the repeater one
remember you can only record about 90 hours. Mari keeps recording too much on hers
change last vowel katie
Owl, just thinking the same about you, I'm fine and you? Happy 4th! We are supposed to go to a pool party today, rain in the forecast?
Thanks Kje
lili is this like Tvo?
90 hours!!! how could you watch all that/
Mari is retired and i think that helps :-)
early showers and late ones here....i am working at church carnical tonight
It would seriously cut into babble time, wouldn't it?
Herin, like tvo but provided by the satalite company.
I just download it from the net
Haz, that is why laptops and wireless broadband were invented
Ok Katie i think they have it on fox here
the pool party is in NJ...going to google forecast
i think 90 hours will be enough katie, but i better get rid of my craft programmes 1st
i'm not sure what tvo is herin...i'm way behoind in the times!!
I just zested and juiced 24 limes and lemons and my hands can barely type now - LOL
I am a woose
Lili i think its like satilite in the states
Kje, margarita time today?
yes annie : ) good guess
LOL
*checks out kje's progfile to see if she is within crashing distance*
well atleast they'llsmell nice kje...lol
LIli its spelt Tivo
ah, ok herin, thanks
well, you'd have to crash my friends place tonight TO - but they would probably be cool with that
I dont have pay tv here
LOL KJE, I will get a room. what kind of unmannerly crasher do you think i am????
Nenes is a word
me either herin... I decided I don't have the time to make it worth the money spent
TY herin - I was missing the goose
I would much prefer to bug a friend and get stuff downloaded off the net for the cost of dvd rs
I have got the full package but that is because we want the sports and that is so expensive that you might as well have the rest as well
we got a cheapdeal but we only wanted the discovery channels as we like the wildlife programmes and we got the entertainment package
I want 11 channels that cost but there is 11 channels that are free and don't want
I still see the shows i want to off cable when they come out on DVD via netflix
I found that say I wanted 8 channels there was one in every package. I use to have freeview which was great but I do like having the lot. it would be the first thing to go if we needed to cut back financially though
we didn't want the childrens channel as i don't want my daughter sitting in front of it allday
hey kje, doren, annie , haz - if you're still there - see you later! *poof*
i do wish you could pick the channels you want and do away with the rest.. which is the vast majority
We don't like sport in this house and there is about 3 sport channels and 5 news channels and a couple of weather channels its not worth it. we dont even have a land line
bye TO - HAGD
See you later, TO.
bye owl.... later
bye Owl, have a great day and night
Later TO
she's happy that there is a horse channel though as she loves them at the moment
bye TO
Little girls love horses
how old lill?
8 kje and she loves to horse ride at the moment
how fun
i would have loved to have done it with her
i use to love to ride when i was younger
Lili that is too cute. I remember that age and being horse mad
could I have a clue for the ep5 word please
ep plus the first letters of the animals under discussion
i like to watch her in the front garden when she is pretending to ride...she set up different kind of jumps and trots around...it's so sweet
well done there haz
TY haz
Thanks Haz
You're welcome.
lili that is way cute
OK - be back after 12 more limes...
ty haz
hmmm - I've got the first he8 but am stuck on the second. Can anyone help plz?
Love your Friday clue Haz
sorry sandie i don't even have that one
Sandy, it's structured in much the same way as the first. The bird, a different vowel, then a female monarch using just one of the usual vowels
ah - got it now!
hi sandie
They're the sort of thing that you hope NOT to encounter, Katie!
Hi Lilliann.
and a hush descends over the chog as we all search for the he8?
Do you want them both clued?
was going to be stoic about it and not ask, but since you offer... sure, haz, I'd love them
Okay. The first he8/60 - three letters of a female bird, add a vowel, then one of five children born together.
got that thanks
The second one is structured in much the same way. This time, follow the bird with a different vowel, and finish off with the female monarch minus a vowel.
got thattoo... thanks haz, you're a whiz
I just went silent as i forgot to think
You're welcome, Dorens.
hey to everyone i missed - phone & then tangling with the fourth of july icon - i must have had a brain deflation
You're getting me confused, nance. I was sure it was peri!
good morning, does anyone have an icon clue for me?
I do :-)
lol - sorry - nope - since her name was in the grid yesterday, i made it peri day - sorry for the confustion
hey harp
hi harp
i do jane
y'all getting married?
Mine should be updated now.
i come back & all i see are "i do's"
lol nance
Lol nance
since i was gone, was there a theme selected?
nance - it's Friday, therefore a word from the grid day.
It's Friday...icon clue day. Or Fourth of July, alternatively.
Hello Uniquity - have you been in silent observation mode?
i keep forgetting that - will i ever be a proficient babbler?
We'll have to put you into babble summer school, nance.
nance i did tell you this earlier.. like maybe ten minutes ago?
I've been gridding. Got an hour and a bit beforeI have to leave for work and want to be done before that :)
hey uni
best of luck uni
Hi
I see. Your mother was vociferous in her condemnation of the grid earlier. We had to be quite firm with her.
all Happy 4th!
hi bethn
lol dorens - sorry - my pain pill finally kicked in so i can think like a normal human again
she was right though :-)
hi bethn, long time no see. how is your shoulder doing, much better i hope.:-)
Hi bethn, happy 4th July to you
My mother is a bit obstinant from time to time..
Never let on to Lori that she's right about anything.. It just doesn't do.
but haz, she already knows that she is!
Lol Haz, I'll bear that in mind
Hi lili! It is doing much better , thanks. It is not quite rigth, but much better than before.
She thinks she knows. She doesn't need to know that she's right in her thinking.
hey beth
glad to hear it and i hope it keeps healing
I try to avoid confirming her beliefs, since I am her daughter and therefore obligated to be a brat.
Hi katie! how is married life? I haven't seen you since the wedding. Congrats! I trust you had a lovely day & honeymoon:)
Hi beth
I don't think you could ever be a brat, Uniquity.
Thank beth it was great and it's reallly nice to be a normal married couple now, we have got back to squabbling about the washing up rather than talking about napkin colours :-)
hi herin, is all well with you?
brb - i have to change my icon again
I got lime juice in my eye... now hands and eye hurts - they better LOVE these margaritas
yes indeed how about you>
yes indeed how about you>
ooohhhh margaritas, that sounds good
Hmm, a bit past eleven am. Margaritas sound lovely. Shame I work.
i am a little crazy, have been driving back and forth to my folks (3 hrs away( Dad is having health issues, and mom is a little too loopy to handle everything on her own.
Well, I should be good and do some weeding in the garden. Happy hunting!

Oh Beth lovely

Yah beth

That was a clue for you sandie ... sorry

Errrrmmmmm call me a thickie but I have NO idea what that might be!
sh+ anagram fo fa4
Shopping centre
if that doesn't help sandie, then you go to the theatre to see a ***w and near and yet so *** away
What vowel comes after the sh - that might help.

Oh thanks I have it now! Wow that was a tricky one.
yw
back - i'm having difficulty putting a google search picture on my computer for a different icon that i have. the 4th of july will have to do. when i google search, i'm finding .com instead of .jpg pictures - enought time wasted on that
hey to all babblers i missed entering
Beth they want to build this stupid shopping centre when most of the surrounding roads are single lanes (well dual but very narrow)
WB nance
thanks sweetie
holy crap herin! that is huge
hi nance
they beth
'hey*
does anyone need help before i go search for dessert recipes for this afternoon?
Beth its stupid and its too late to protest its being built suck it up basicly
we live in a relatively small town. i was looking forward to fireworks tonight. THEY HAD THEM LAST NIGHT. what's up with that?
nope- just a piece of that dessert
i'lljust keepplodding beth but thanks anyway
Apparently this has been going on for 8 years so hopefuly it goes away
Here too nance, I was sitting in my robe, when the noise started. I am very disappointed. Where do you live
north carolina
Cooooooooooooooooooooooeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Lilliann
How is your economy Herin, building of such projects has slowed here
I think its a tax dodge
I'm in nj, they aleways have them on the actual 4th here. I don't know what happened
maybe that thought if they had them last night, a larger crowd would take part - we live near raleigh, so i imagine that's what they were competing with - but, none the less, the 4th is the 4th - lol
hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii sleeepyyyyyyyyyyyyyy head!
Beth you icon looks like the side of a childs head with strippy shirt
how areyou doing with the grid......its a hard one today?
could I have a clue for the se6 words please
It is my child now that my youngest is moving out this weekend. I will have empty nest syndrome, hence the parrot
not from me sweets - i don't have it yet
se 6 and 7 are spanish for mr and mrs
Parrot is very cute
Lol beth, what is his/her name?
Oh tell me about it..........I just can't stay awake......I keep nodding off looking for words
portugese mr. & mrs
se6,27 is a shiny thing sewn onto clothes
ahhhhhhh thank you lill, shuffling off to get some fish
Jazz is the parrot,, Travis is the son jumping ship
you can pass me one then katy as i got it from a clue given earlier aswell
i only had one child. he's 31 so i've had an empty nest for a while - it's sad really having just one - if you had more than one, it would give you something to do after the first one leaves
Beth they do that kids move out
is Jazz a boy or a girl?
Mari said it ws no easier, she just felt it harder when i moved out (I was the youngest)
Kept going back until she was fed up of me :-)
I know herin, daughter moved out 2 yrs ago, this one is my baby tho, so it is the end of an era, I feel like the velveteen rabbit.
I moved out and it took my parents 2 more years to get rid of my crap
NOrrr Beth Hugs
try to stay awake flask so we can chat
Jazz is a boy, his breeder had him dna sexed, otherwise we would be unable to tell till he was @ 2 yrs old.
Lol herin it took my dad 20 years to get my stuff out of the loft, your parents got away easy!
He looks fantastic beth, and how good is it that just as you need him most he is learning to speak, thats great
I have been maried 34 yrs. I think there is still some of my stuff in my parents attic :)
Katie not really a choice when they moved into the country then interstate. They still have some of my things
my mam'sstill got some of mine.....she kept it for the grand bairns
My parents have a box of my baby stuff
I am off to make desserts, hopefully iwill see you all tomorrow in the grid
enjoy beth
bye beth, have a lovely 4th :-)
oh boy George Bush really is a moron
bye beth, take care and enjoy the rest of your day
a clue pls for the sh 6/30
What makes you say that, herin? I mean, what specifically, besides the obvious?
sh6- yousee a ***w in las vegas and near and yet so *** kim
There was a George Bush Speech on the tv and he totally stuffed it
There was a George Bush Speech on the tv and he totally stuffed it
hi kim and sam
thanx lilli...i'm done
Oh, I see. Hi lilliann
congrats kim
wtg kim!
love your icon sam
Ok i am going to disappear have to go to bed
Thank you! Everybody loves Pooh, eh?
Sam i love your icon
Fireworks
i do. my daughter got picked on at school for having a pooh bear pencil case
help with ca6 please
wtg katie!
Hee hee. Christopher looks like he might just pull it off, right, herin?
yah Katie
Yep Sam
Night all
Well, kids will find ANY reason to pick on other kids, you know how it is.
i bought a fridge magnet today which read "housework won't kill you, but why take the chance"........going out to sit in the sun :-)
Peri, there isn't a CA6. Do you mean ca5?
their is a 5 peri, is that the one tyou want, no 6's
NM have the 5 :-)\
Enjoy your 4th July everyone
lol katie, enjoy the sun
i meant there
it'ssunny here but keeps getting cloudy, think we'll have some rain soon
true sam, and my bairn is too soft and won't stick up for herself, and gets upset
i told her to tell them that you are never too old for pooh bear and that her mam loves him still
I think the best you can do is reassure her that most people grow out of it, and to not believe all the lying liars who want to tell kide the lie that "these are the best years of your life"
she's had alot of trouble with bullying lately and all she wants is to be friends with everyone. we've been back and forth to the school to sort it out, but sometimes, it's like they are not bothered
I think this is a universal problem; I don't have a clue how to handle it.
we've even spoken to parents, some are horrified at what their children have done and some aren't bothered
That tells you a lot about how those children are going to grow up. So sad.
but as you say it is a universal thing...we're getting to the point of just telling her to hit them or push them back, but that doesn't solve things...i don't want her ending up like them...
She won't lilliann. The base motivation comes from the home. You know that.
it is the most difficult thing to do, being a parent, i don't know what to do for the best...they should have a learning manual....lol
HAPPY 4th OF JULY!!!
I don't have children. I don't have the nerves of steel required.
lill, bullying really gets to me...it is widespread and awful for the recipient...I would tell my child to hit or push them back as much as I hate to do that but if all else failed, why not try?
hey again to all who have entered
I have a couple of dogs, and I worry about them too much as it is!
no true, she will never be like them, but it is beginning to change her and make her become a more angrier person
Thank you, cathyar!
Hi Cathyar!
hi annie! :D
lill....I need to go and lie down feeling dreadful......catch you later....xxxxxxx
hi cathar
Hi all! Happy 4th!
lill, have you spoken to the princial of the school and the guidance counselor?

what are you talking about lilli? i must have gone right over my head
sorry meant annie

hello all.
o ok - lol
hello hurshy
that is the head of the school annie
need a clue for in7, please?
hi hursh
the in7 was adjourned quickly so the police could have more time to gather evidence
lill, I would keep on top of it and not let the head teacher off the hook....your daughter must be a lovely little girl
An in7 is an investigation into an unexpected death
Sort-of, kind-of related to the co8
thanks, sam and hurshy
thank you hurshy & sam
Any time.
but we now have a different principal, which we spoke to the other day but he was busy with other things, so whether he did anything about it or not....who knows, but we will keep onto it annie and thanks
I'm a little over halfway and I'm going to go have a late breakfast now. Bye for now, all.
bye sam
lilliann, keep on keeping on....good luck!
ugh, i have NO clue where to even start thinking about what the HE8s might be

Afternoon, everyone! Happy Independence Day to my fellow yanks!
OK juicing done - can concentrate on babbling now
did you buy ann electric one kje?
Hi Judi
hi kje ... getting ready for happy hour?
hi judi
hi judi
no - one of those green mexican ones that you put the lime in and it turns it inside out - worked brilliantly
and cheap - wish I had it hours ago! LOL
i have one in my basement that i never use....would love to give it away... yes, those mexican ones are great
howdy all:)
i just monkeyed them
Hi cross
hi cross
hi cross
are you talking about the fancy juicers that juice turnips : )
hey cross
Who in their right mind would want to juice a turnip?
CA 5/16 clue please
I never ehard of a juicer that turns inside out altho that would work well
just finished a day and a half visit to the(cue evil music here) in-laws!!:(
a ship carries ca***
oh no. just a krups juicer that work well for citrus. I used to make fresh grapefruit juice every day, and lots of orange juice for my kids - now i just eat the grapefruit itself
mlf... I will send a ca5 ship full of fish your way
cross my hubbys in laws just left this AM
ice - it turns the lime inside out
lol
Would love to have a real fancy juicer (one that filters out the pips ad skins). For now I just use my blender
cross and you are still sain ??
exactly my point judy - LOL
ty stephie got it
ice gee thanks lol
Personally, I make it a point never to even make eye
im not even still sane:/
contact with turnips.
when was the last time you were sane cross?
lol judi
bout 1978]
i'm with you judi. and i totally love vegs, just never developed a taste for turnips
sane whats that??
haven't you seen those infomercials judi where they juice all those veggies... and I'm thinking ewwww
yay I was 1 then ;P
LOL my spelling is worse since playing babble
a state of mind(purely rumor)
I love veggies, but would rather eat them intact
es5?
Oven roasted Turnips with carrots, parsnips, peppers, and balsamic/olive oil dressing is delicious
nm
ugh
i would probably try that ruru
The beginning of cooked snails is the es
too hot to oven roast ruru - but sounds delish for fall
oven roasting any veg makes them incredible
bzzz its es plus what you drive
Yes, Kje. Have seen veggie juicing. I think there should be an advocacy group formed to rail against it. Unless someone is making pesto, there's no need to "juice" veggies.
Roasted root veggies are yummy.
at least thats the one i have
se 6/21 anybody?
sounds worthy of trying ruru - but not worth trying to make it myself
CE 4/5 please
me too ruru - was just monkeying and can't see it
If you do a pork roast in the winter it is a nice side dish for it
se6 is a Portuguese man
more than one of the third letter of the alphabet
fancy addition to clothes se6
ce4 - the letter plural
that is the 27 need the 21
oh se 6/21 is portuguese mister
but that is the se6/27, no?
ty bzz now i need that fish lol
that's Mr., not the thing that mists plants
thanks dorens
It's a wrap ...
please help with the last two qu's
aaahhh
qu + Vowell + nothing

they take senhor but not chenin - aaaggghh
add a number to the last qu4/7
=O
WOOHOO Ruru - was that fireworks?
kje......
whats chenin?
i don't know, but i tried it too
oops - crap
yep all done
Penalty box for kje. Thinking out loud: 2 minutes.
lol kje
Hi Tor I havent seen you for a while
yay ruru
Congrats ruru
yay ruru. i have 7 left listless and don't think i'll ever find them
Heyas all ..
hi tor
hi torgs
Thunder rolling in. Think 4th of July is going to be a rain-out here. :(
hey tor
CH 5/16 clue please
It's cloudy and dreary in Boston too. Sigh...
where's that Judi?
Thats a shame Judi
chenin - from chenin blanc... if it will accept foreign words, at least accept foreign words I use
the only references to chenin would be a proper noun and thus not count
yup
bird sound mlf
what a baby chick says
that is the ch 5/16
this thing accepts proper nouns when it wants to....
bbl
Maybe neable prefers Chardonnay to chenin blanc
i saw on a weather repor tthis AM that a lot of east coast states are getting rain today/tonight we are getting it this weekend not sure about today i am on the east coast as well
Bye Bethaney
We're in Delaware (mid-atlantic region).
enable
only gonna reach 95 today - yay!
we have a whole week of perfect weather coming,cept this tuesday coming
oops sprry wasnt paying attention i need the other CH 5/16
maybe the rain will wash all of Geroge's sins away
95!!! id melt
the other ch5.16 is a music term
is that possible ruru?
Im sitting here again in a grey and miserable Wales..........I NEED sun
ty stephi
The other is a musical group of notes mlf
never come to cali then cross, but then, I used to hate 95 until I realized what a difference a lack of humity makes
OK, using the list now and missed both ra's - sheesh
doubt it kje .. but it is a thought
ruru - not sure if a hruricane can even do that
here we get the temp with about 105% humidity:/
It will be 90 + here and lovely
come on over caitlyn. sun is what we have here
Yes, 95 deg. in Delaware is vastly swampier than 95 deg. in California. Although, we don't get the earthquakes, mudslides or forest fires.
I couldn't take the humidity..
forest fires are the only threat to this area mostly
Thank God for air conditioning.
Just waiting for the invite kje I will book flights LOL
Earthquakes PHHAWWW.. big deal about nothing most of the time
Im from georgia, I know more about humidity than id like to recall
If you have your martinis ready the quake will just help you prepare them gently
LOL ruru
That sounds very practical ruru. Much like making lemondade when life gives you lemons.
bingo!
I, Kathryn, formally invite you, Caitlyn, to come share in the miserable heat of summer in Texas. Time and date at your convenience.
humidity sucks - that's from someone who livs in NC
ice thats true i have been to Atlanta. also known as Hotlanta lol
nance really?loil
pulease - you don't know humid til you've lived in Houston
humidity is bad in NC??
is anyone else having trouble with the g's, or is it just me???
terrible in NC
gh - indian clarified butter and plural
nance i know i am in NC too remember??
i don't know how texas can be higher that 100% humidity
I have 0/9 gs if it makes you feel any better steph
go - trail mix
I Caitlyn would love to formally accept your very kind invition Kathryn (just got to win the lottery first )
they are not too bad steph
i have all but one steph, just wish i knew which one
i am stuck on teh CO words
i paul invite everyone to come share the perfect weather of my georgian bay/blue mountain.we can be boating in the morning,hicking in the wooded hills ten minutes later and finish up with a 22 oz porterhouse steak for the evening after water sliing for a hour or so:)
ah! i found which one, thanks for spurring me on there steph
I went to Florida once and the humidity was awful and very uncomforatable
Everything is bigger in Texas. Even the humidity.
LOL caitlyn
cross sounds like heaven

Ok but the he 8s are words.....the fiber of an agave, Agave fourcroydes, of Yucatán, used for making ropes, coarse fabrics, etc. an indigenous language of Hispaniola, where the word was allegedly first used]

hmm... I thought the points were based on scrabble, but I just noticed Q is a 10 in scrabble... what other differences are there? anyone know?
i had thought the same - well spotted! How long we been playing? LOL
He had to be careful to not violate trademarks and all, so there are differences
The visual look has changed too, over the years
ty and hi artlady
Hello back, Annie!
I guess I can understand that, I was just wondering what the differences were, and hello artlady
and ice, :-)
I would need some clues for my last three words, please. Se 6/21, se 7/32 and sh 6/30.
spanish variation for mr, mrs and sparkly things put on clothing and accessories
ty artlady
My pleasure!
sh6 is a ram's horn trumpet ..
Ty artlady
Sorry, ajv, I misread the question, but tor got it!
Oh I have that sparkly thing already, that's se 6/27. I miss se 6/21.
se6/21 is portugese mr.
And another annoyance for me--some non-English words are accepted, but not others!
yes, and some I consider English aren't LOL!
Some non-English words are used as English words and those I accept... but yes, se6&7 are good examples of ones I dont think should be accepted
I agree Ice
Thank you ALL for clues! Now I am ready. Bye all and good night!

Guten Abend, Babblers. Smaller I just read your profile. Remember when the chat log was reaaalllly interesting? Like mpscarriages, divorces , drunken husbands, lovrs living in separate states???
and then take the 3rd letter of the day of the week that the averages # of hits of a lefthander in Wrigley field when it's cloudy
inge, those were the glory days! hahaha! babble hookups, pink hand bags and lots of snogging
and fights and fallling outs in teh chat??
inge, do you know whatever happened to miyavifan? that really threw me
mo, of course! that's extra credit!
no idea, I know that Mickey in Berliln tried to come back and no one paid attention
oh that's so sad. he really manipulated those that were nice to him. i think he stalked fairieK and renny for quite awhile
oo words?
hey, remember when Dr. God made appearances a lot. He was neat.
just one oo, a sound of surprise you make
i wonder if he babbles his own game?
I tried to contact Faerie last week without success, both of her email addresses don't work
hmm.....kinda new here
inge, i think she forgot her password about a year ago and had to create a new one. but i don't think i emailed her at her new one
He used to flush out the trolls and let us know. No trolls, no Dr. God appearances'
rl64tx, welcome to babble!
thank you!!
ri 64, after a while you shall be just as addicted as we are
anj and lola made an appearance not long ago ..
there's a grid thingy to the left that some people work on, but really the priority is the chat log! hahahaha!
Hi Babblers....does anyone know whatever happened to Kate that moved from UK to Canada?
just learning so any hints are appreciated
Well, I don't appear very often, yet I do the puzzle evry day and read some of the chog
torg, are they still an item? please say yes b/c it's like with your parents and celebrities, you just want things to continue happily
yes, chiley, she is happy in Toronto. Married to a suduko player.
I think so, smaller ..
Hello everyone.
rl64tx, click on below in "Friends of Babble" on "Lickety's Babble Clues" and it's a list to show you the order to look for
Married??? The last time I heard she was kinda "with" the other guy from the UK....is that who she married?
thank you, torgone. good answer!
thnx smaller!
Better check on supper Yes, he followed her to Canada and married her
awww! that's so sweet! bye inge! good seeing you1
yw rl64!
Nice ending to a turbulent story
i missed the kate thing. who's kate? sounds interesting
babble soap operas are a vicarious hoot
hi again. got called away. hello ri6 and welcome.
She was very young....22-23...had 3 small children. Was married to a guy who was not the father of any of the kids...they split...she moved to Toronto and was followed by another guy who played occasionally.
he moved all the way from the UK for her?!! that's so romantic!!!
kate checks in once ina while, but i don't recall her handle. excellent summary of events , Chiley
is it kthdsn?
kate is kthdsn (or as i call her, nTkh), yes
yes.
i don't understand like ac4,5??
ac4,6
ok, now the dog wants in also. Got th check on supper. *poof*
its lovely to hear she has found happiness.
sorry to be a pain
the first two letters are "ac", it's a "4" letter word,worth "6 points" based on the points in the tile
5 letter words = do the same thing but multiply by 2
oh ok!
6 letter words = do the same thing but multiply by 3, etc for 7, 8, and more letter words
so a 5 letter word with all 1 point letter would = 10
thanks for explaining smaller!
yw!
clue for the ep5/14, anyone?
smaller is "BIG" on explanations.
hahahaha!
ep5 ... ep + ***se and cart.
ep + a car's ***n goes beep
oh and rl64tx, you'll swear a lot b/c some of the words in the grid are sooooo stupid

Ah. The kind of monotony that has me throwing things at the screen?
smalls do i stamp your hand or something?
i'm demanding. i ask for bladder damning and validation. want want want
hahahaha!

calm down dear HAZ!
and love your clueing guielines.
hey mo
Mo, you don't think I sit here calmly while babbling is happening?
Yes, the guidelines seem to have gone down well with those of taste and sophistication.
you dont???
it certainly puts a new spin on "babble" in the true sense of the word
No! I shout and rant sometimes.
haz, i don't believe it. you're just trying to make us feel better about ourselves
YES SHE IS KIDDING US!
*hand fly to face in horror" NO! don't shatter my image of you sitting regally in front of the screen, in your tiara and pearls...
You mean I'm not the only one to get frustrated?
amen to that, TO!!!
Oh, the tiara and pearls are there, don't worry about that.
hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And this little throne fits me so nicely.
brb must check washer

15 dollars to add a pic :(
that's coco...my weiner!!
does your mother know you're posting pics in front of Lady Haz and Queen mo?
But ralph, you'll get to keep the stats which are far more important than the pictures.

did you find where the firecrackers were coming from inge
i always worry about them landing on my roof and starting fire

not often, hope it was a bat , love to see them from a distance, makes the holidays come alive
i hope it was, too
firecrackers are in the neighbors' premises. Thre is a kind of valley to the south of us, we live on a hill, and the sounds carry too well.
or small town had them last night - that's just not right - lol
firecrackers i am not too crazy about but the firewords are great, like what we get when we finish grid (lol)
our*
our small town
it was a firework - not a cracker
nancethefan: Love you icon today are you going to watch the busch race from Daytona we are watching preshow now

yes - the race is tomorrow night though isn't it?
And Detroit had their BIG show last week Monday, they combine it with Canada Day
plus the icon is a grid clue
The Busch race is on tonite or as the new name is Nationwide series
i live within viewing distance of Kings Island in Ohio so i can watch them every night for 15 minutes when the park closes
ok - scared me silly - didn't want to miss it - lol - it doesn't take much to make me happy or scare me does it? lol

Oh pretty Nut
Uh h No one has any advices.
i can't see them...i can only hear them
advices?
Red what can i say. if you don't like the guy tell him sorry i don't date work collegues
ok, i'm taking this thing inside, its ruining the hammock experience
and i've always been against dating coworkers myself
Hes not a work colleague, hes a paramedic, so we technically dont work together...
nafisah are u logged on
Sorry Seain, sometimes I speak in Pidgen...
yes, dating @ wk can cause more problems than it fixes
but Red thta may work as an excuse?
np, i was merely looking for context; i just got here
yay lightning bugs!
I feel terribly guilty. As I do not like him because he is quite overweight.
hey dc
hi, lady
red, we all have things we can't get past
Ok, should I say as a person I like him fine, but ....I am so not attracted to that.
mmm
Ahhhh. Something will have to work out. I actually have my eye on one of the Gym trainers....I jsut was very surprised and taken aback...
back later i am going to go poke the boy awake and bath the kitty
if it's a deal breaker, it's a deal breaker *shrug*
njoy, lady
Yes but Seain, I just cant say, Sorry man, i cant go out to eat with you because you are Obese?
hugs and later
Bye Lady!!
his approaching you took you aback, i gather? And, you could get a decent friend at least out of it.
wow, i can hear lake fairfax fwks from here
or maybe that's thunder
or it could just fizzle, the potential relationship
If there was no pressure I'd like to go do something with him or anyone else, but you know there is always the interest in things....
yes, alas, i do know :/
I'm going to have to figure something out.
indeed.
ah, that is lake fairfax i hear. too consistent for thunder
I think I'm going to just have to tell a half truth, no time for dating due to training....And I am tstarting to trian pretty hard now...though its still onthe short leash...
ur in ER there i gather?
Yes, I am only qualified to work ER, nothing else.
so, what if he wants coffee or what sometime, even after that?
Well, I live 30 miles away, and we dont get breaks at work, so it wouldnt happen...
:) well, that's easy
I think I just have to sort of suck it up a little.
how are you liking FL?
I LOVE Florida!
Its very very perfect for training.
yay for adulthood /sardonism.
are u training for something in particular?
NM half and a Marathon in November...
