yeah sog... lickety commented on it yesterday, said it was really cool!

oops, pn for me
pb*
it'll be great for me bf!
a couple times over, bfsog. tsk tsk
i've let myself down and i've let you all down. my parents were right, haha
if they told you that, it was most definitely not true and very unkind, bfsog.
nah joke, but its like a funny anecdote over here
ah parents, the great equalizers, or demonizers... depends on the guilt complex I guess! LOL
I am glad it was a joke!
lol yes, something like that, mrP

Hi. yes I did have a wonderful evening with my friends.
bye anike

I was just organised dinner (mmm pizza delivery).
Mmmmm!
Mr Pres how is the moving organising going)
Yes We are very lazy today
Sprite, do you know anywhere in Noord Holland where I can get corn tortillas???
hold on a sec
Oh and do you know what we are doing tonight?
What, Herin?
Watching Toy Story 1 and 2 we are very 5 today
Oh fun!
Yes. We didn't get in to really late this morning
MonkeyG, sorry, cannot find it. Thought AH might carry them, but the website is not conclusive.
No AH that I have yet been in has had them. But thank you for looking. There is a shop at the airport that sometimes has them, says a friend. Danny wants taquitos... so do I... oh well! Guess I'll make carnitas instead.
will think about moving tomorrow infern... am half dead from working the fete at school today. Although, it is exciting that we will be going to this nice house
or make the tortillas yourself :)
That is great Mr Pres.
better take care of yourself, mrP...
The one tortilla press I have been able to find in this country doesn't work so well.
I have managed to find teh right grind cornmeal at one of the Turkish shops, but without th epress it's not really feasible...
no, that is true, MonkeyG :(

Bye for now Katie.
Lorip, yet again another good icon message.
st8 leading to st9 - s plus a beverage, mix up the whirling dervish movement. Good morning/evening all, just getting ready to face the shops.
st9 = it ends in biblical bad things. have a look at the grid, there are very few ways you can do that
oh bugger... now i have to get all the d's so ill have the diagonal greyed... my partner says this is only two steps away from a disorder...lol
st9 an acute incline is st*e* - swap the e for another vowels - & one of the 7 deadly ****
st + leave in water for some time + evils

hi Haz & Ata
Morning Haz.
G'd morning Ata Hari, Haz
...Lynxx, Ata and Blue
Thank you. I just noticed the bottom letters. Head desk
Hello there - horrible day here. Just right for babbling.
hi Elder
Thank you for that clue i just didnt see the bottom corner
I'm not really here. Just had to help out. trying to decide whether more sleep is needed or not!
ty both
haz, so wrap up on the shopping trip.
Ata Its a weekend More sleep is good
Chilly here, but the sun is shining.
that was my theory, herin!
Ata, I would go for the more sleep.
Sleep is always good, and Haz has to shop? hahahahahahahah
***oops, did I type that out loud?***
we didn't get dressed till 5 today
I'll remember this.
maybe I'll get to 200 words, then sleep. Yes. Good idea
:)
shopping?... i have to go car hunting...*sigh*
I forgo all responsibility today.
***rolls eyes and wonders what Haz is talking about*** :p
Rolin. why, has your car got lost ?
not yet elder...but i fear it will be lost to me if the rattle in the clutch gets any worse
Herin, days like that every so often are good for your soul.
Schadenfreude, Lori.
Cars.. there a nightmare ,when things start to go wrong.
well my little peugot has done me well... but i think its time has come
OH Rolin that is not good about the car.
Elder that is true. Himself hasn't slept most of this week. Combination of insomnia and the cat
off to that place, high in another motoring planet.
theyre a nec. evil really... ive done lotsa research... and i know what good solid sensible cars i could get...but i kinda want a convertible..lol
Do it Rolin. hint hint
a convertible - is this good in the UK?
for 2 weeks a year yes
lynxx. ::))
well lynxxx.thats what my partner says...for the two days i could drive with the top down..lol.. but thats not quite true...and it would be sooooo nice
(im hating the vowel words)
just remember how Isadora Duncan died Rolin, that's all I can say
Lynxx, was that on motor bike?
Just don't wear a long scarf.
on the one day you can put the top down
urrhggg!!!
nope...her scarves got caught up in the wheels of her convertible
Oh, thinking of someone else.
Laurence of Arabia met his end on a motorbike
aww lovely su6 and 7 to take me to 201 words
it would be a horrible way to go ....but pretty dramatic
Lawrence, that should be. I knew it looked wrong.
Brain cells mixing up historical facts, thanks for the clarity.Blame the meds :)
Not blame FM?
and FM
Haz, oh forgot , yes it's FM.
Hooray! No point blaming anything else. This weather today is entirely her responsibility.
And I can put off shopping no longer. A nice round number to find when I come back. See you later!
bye Haz
thanks for the clue Haz
This is what happens when you are raised to take responsibility, you forget to place blame, where it really belongs.
Happy shopping Haz!
Bye for now Haz, and wrap up.
have fun, Haz! :D
Happy shopping. Is that an oxymoron or what? Bye!
: p
:)
hi rolin.. car hunting
eveing Demi
hey demi..yeah... spent 3 hours on the net yesterday morning...getting comparison reviews of cars
hello Demi.
hi lynxx and everyone else... how are we all?
its gonna be peeing it doewn tomorrow..but we might go out looking... if the body is up to it
G'd morning demi
Hi Diem
Ata how is teh fur kids going?
all good over here
Car hunting can be a nightmare
well as i said.. i know what i could have..and i know what i want..lol
and i dont have your dad to take it to...
Monster #1 wants a walk and I can luxuriate in the fact it's Not My Job to walk her today :D
those ar often two diff things... well it is for me
i am sure den's mechanic would gladly give anything the once over
trying to 'hint' that my husband should do it too
YAh Ata nice to palm of that responsibility
and apart from the initial cost...its the road tax and insurance differences too
its always the hidden expenses that kill
.. and the tax on fuel.
but the main thing is i need an automatic now...my hands are just getting to tempramental to rely on...and it hurts to change gear
Automatic will be best. Abit awkward when you start but people say they soon get used to no gear changes.
& i think you deserve to have power steering too!
oh yeah..thats a given..the first car i bought here didnt have it..and thats why i changed over to the peugot
oh great. apparently I get to go too. Why, I don't know. Husband is being sulky unless I go *sigh*
elder...i have no probs driving an auto... just never owned one
bbl!
bye ata
bye Ata
Bye for now Ata.. and sulk later :)
I never learned how to drive a manual, still can't see myself doing all that dancing on pedals let alone the gear stick thingies
I dont even have a drivers licence
Fake being sick again Ata
HAH - Andre & his missus are on the box!
***Didn't Hobbit just get walked yesterday?***
In Britain if you pass your test in an automatic you are not legal to drive a car with gears .
Lynxx, what a treat.
that also the same in states in Australia
my husband just said "but she can't sing" - didn't know who it was
herin...you dont have a license?
Crikey, was she singing with him ? ghastly.
Nope. Rolin I don't No patience
youre a rare beast these days
I don't either-- mine expired 13 years ago. And hi all briefly!
hi Monkey
Hi agian monkey.
Hello Monkey.
i dont know what id do if i didnt have my license...i loathe waiting for public transport
What would you rather someone on the road that has the attention span of a goldfish or not?
I use my family transport cargo trike.
Have a chunky book for PT
My daughter hasn't bothered either (24) and I didn't until I was about 26. Public transport where we live is extremely good
I have legs and PT
Lynxx your in a really good area from memory yes?
there are problems with using pt and driving and both can be equally as frustrating.
St Kilda area
phone.
Yes that is what i thought. Great area Lynxx
i have to say...i do miss the occasional ride on a melb. tram
rolin, u will have to put on your list of thnings to do for your next trip.
Rolin I am currently reading Harry Potter which is big enough to keep me amused
lol & now that I have my Seniors card it will cost me only $3.50 a day to go anywhere! and my 2 country trips a year for nix
which harry herin
Lynxx zip into the Metshop and get your free sunday pass for pensioners.
I am up to page 460 of Half Blood
im still sitting here 'patiently' waiting for my food parcel to arrive...from the last trip..
ohh, how did you send it rolin?
Rolin am i getting a hint of IMPATIENCE S?
by sea mail... so gawd knows when it will get here
Rolin when did you post it?
doesn't it take approx 1-2 months via sea?
herin we're talking twisties..savoys..saladas..voilet crumbles..choc teddy bears... butternuts snaps..and more...what do YOU think..lol
back..
HI elder
HI elder
*sigh*... i posted it sept 30
You should get it by Christmas
rolin, i am sure your son would gladly send something to you via airmail to tye you over...
Sea Mail is the cheapest option for delivery of parcels within 2 to 3 months
well demi...i still have half a box of savoys...and a cherry ripe in the cupboard for special occasions..lol
The reason i remember this Rolin is i was at the post office the other day and i saw the dates for delivery by sea mail. If you need anything email me
and woe betide anyone who tries to take them!
how are you surviving on such limited rations!
I currently have a not mars bar in the freezer
im being stoic...*holding my wilting head hig*... i have a few savoys at a time every so often... i can be very brave when i need to be...
Hugs Rolin.
and i STILL want to make the word 'hiatus'...
rolin... your son is being very very very evil... he is about to torture you via email...
Demi do you belong to Rolin?
boy - Max Merrit is looking very old and not well, but still sounds exactly the same, amazing
rolin's son is my bf
OH. Cool. Dont be mean to her :D
i gather lynxx you are watching rockwiz too..
I am
Toy Story 2 here (In 2010 Toy Story 3)
That concert they are talking about - I was there! the Stones one
Cool Lynxx
back...and i havent received the email yet..and tell him i may choose not to read it...im sure its about food..
Rolin just spam him back until he yields :P
trumpoz: it is a thankyou for helping me with the job application
a thankyou???... hmmm....
trumpoz: herin, I've lived with rolin for 18 years it will take a lot to yield hehe *gone*
(damn Your not going to win there Rolin)
herin... i am his mother... tis my pride and my curse...lol
rolin, the email has sent and should be in your inbox soon... his exact words were: I am dead!
*shaking head*... hes sooooo brave 17K miles away..lol
hes a little shit...lol
i gather you have opened it?...
grin
trumpoz: it is demi's fault..... had she not said you were running short on savoys I would never have known........ and never had the evil thought...... *awaits the clip over the ear*
Rolin I think i can go over there and clip him over the head for you if you like?
hello im mewtuo
naaah.... demi will do that for me... and in any case... ive sent HIM something by email now...ner ner ner...
hello & welcome mewtuo!
hello mew.

hey chrissie
it's beer.
hi chrissie

You can buy it n the Grocery Mikes Hard lemonade.
Why I know this i am unsure.
mixture of lemonade and beer sounds disgusting
OK, red... i'll take your word.... it doesn't sound good to me, but then i am not a fan of beer
it's very refreshing peri
I always thought hard lemonade had a whiskey in the lemonade, that s9's were just a fruity beer drink hockey players cooled off with before "real" drinking
Its not bad
it's lovely on a hot day
i don't like beer on it's own but with lemonade it's nicer
I am not keen on them, don't like anything in my beer but beer
I thought it was an Aussie thing
never heard of the sh8, thanks

Nice

wb nance
ty
Thats sounds fun Lili
updated quote of the day is now in profile:)
it can be when the bands/singers are good, if not it's a good excuse to drink more so they sound better!!...lol
One of the bands i saw live is on telly at the moment. They were so drunk they were crap
i like it cross
should be a rule that all bands play from noon to 4 pm so you get your moneys worth,then everone can get schnockered;)
when you saw them live herin?
OH i like that Cross
Yep
43 words to find; first pass through the grid is complete.
i wouldn't make it to the evening then then tho cross :-)
wowo go angel
Cross is that for the over 60s set :P
by the looks of my typing it looks like i've been on the booze already!!
Cross i call before 5pm Morning
no,its for the "i want to hear the band before i end up face first in a plate of cold chicken wings set"
letus not talk about booze. Beer is bad
it's normally garlic dip here cross!!
not beer..thats too filling,lets talk fine single malt grain proucts of a heavier alcoholic nature;))
i don't drink beer herin si it's ok
mmm Whiskey.
i haven't a clue what i just typed......
you know a male can hear the word "whiskey" whipered from half a mile?
I had one fruit tingle last night one green drink and a beer. It was the beer that turned me into a giggling idiot
whispered*
i don't like beer, unless it has lemonade but as cross says, it's too heavy...rose or white wine with soda water
what's a fruit tingle?
whiskey=angels tears..aptly named:)
most the people i know who like whisky cross are women
Um Blue Curacao liqueur, vodka, lemonade, raspberry cordial and ice cubes.
ugh herin,cant stand fruity drinks..if i want desert,ill have a jello pudding:)
Its meant to be layered but they buggered it up. I had the beer as a remembrance thing.
a clue please for qu5/18 please?
sounds nice herin...i like rum raisin curacao, but i've onlys een it in curaca, funnily enough!
sounds like fruit cordial flask with the s
closest i get to fruity drinks is zanbuco on fire with 3 coffee beans floating on top;)
*without the s
zambuco* (sp)
qu5---add an S in front for butternut or zuchini
to make void, annul, or set aside Qu 5
Oh Cross that stuff is vial
its only vile if your the breed that never blows it out first:))
i have to or i lose my beard:/
shudder. no that stuff doesn't agree with me
Next friday is the big night for me
i'm not sure of it with the coffee beans cross...ughhh
herin,have you had a real long island iced tea? not that pre mix crap
diving in
when i used to bartend it was my most requested drink next to ceasers
I dont usually drink them but i know what you mean
clue for ti6,21, the last ti please
Tequila, rum, gin , triple sec, sweet and sour mix and Coca-Cola this the stuff?
gin,rum,vodka,tripe se,pink lemonade,splash og coke or pepsi,shaved ice
sec*
darn typos
I know what they are but i dont drink them as i loath rum. It gives me headaches
substitute rum for grand marnier
other way
:/
I like your thinking
always options my dear lady in mixing good drinks
but 2 of them and you lose all feeling in your legs;)
Yep and I play the Im a girl look at my boobs whilst pouring that drink thanks :D Im a shameless hussy in that department
we cut them off when they cant say"long island iced tea " lol
ahh master of inducing the overpur eh?
No my fav is pint glass Margaritas and Lynchburg lemonades.
YEp
overpour*
I love this house. Our next door neighbours go away on weekends so we can have the doors open and the telly on at a level which is not to polite if they are home

I have ground to a halt at 261..
do those time-share things work for you flosey?
icon updated
we have another on Lake Simcoe - that one in particular was great when the kids were HS age because it was about an hour from home
* Good mornin', good mornin'! It's great to stay up late... *
wish darned flickr would work:(
killed the last person that sang that good morning song...but have been up for hours anyways;)

oops
sorry crossy! ;)
just teasing pini;)
gorgeous area crossy reminds me of Yosemite
Hi i just tuned out for a sec
that was taken in a small villiage of redwing on top of the hill 10 min away from me on the backroads
We have friends that have time shares but are always offering them to other people and never use them themselves
do you ski crossy?
nope..i leave it to others to break thier bones now;)
i just pick up thier pieces theese days
yes ruru, one reaches that point, although son still uses the one on Georgian Bay
wise man there crossy
in the winter our emergency dept gets so busy with skiers that us locals usually end up going to another hospital an hour away if we need care:/
we lived in Kimberley BC for 3 years - same thing there, great skiing, but lots of mishaps
the number one thing is broken wrists with snow boarders
phone... brb
followed by destroyed knees
I cant stand the snow
I'm back. I was on the phone w/#2 son. He's in the ski biz, so I know what your talking about w/injuries. The worst are the tree and skier. It's never a good outcome.
BRB again
most tree /skier issues never have a chance..we had one skier go off the marked area at night and she go ran over by a groomer:(
are you a medic crossy?
nope..just in the ski/tourist/chalet business
I shouldn't laugh at that but still
ah, you'd see it all then
im right beside slope #4 at my work..25 feett away from those darn show guns:((
snow*
yuck i hates snow
figured that was it, pretty noisy?
do you have any snow where you are herin?
No. But we can go to it in winter if we wish.
No. But we can go to it in winter if we wish.
not really,just a medium sort of continual hiss...but it bites to have to work in a blizzard when nature is not doing anything:(
hi all :)
howdy kaz
about the same here herin - only have an occasional snowfall - ties everything up! We just stay home, put the fires on and enjoy the peace and quiet
cross said a word!!!!!!!!!
hi there MM
what? where? did not!
yes crossy, the sound of the snow machines
did too!
We are about 5 hours from the snow
dar...crossy trudges off to the pb.....
darn*
lol herin right now with this weather we are about 8 seconds from snow:(
just has to drop another degree or 2....
bler
crossy slide into the hot tub in the pb...whips up some brekkies and puts on a pot of tea:)
as the ladies set up the massage table;)
enjoy crossy
crossy wakes up as the wife gives him a shot in the back of the head:/
lol
amazing for being visually impared she dont miss much:(
i haven't been thinking big enough in PB amenities. i go for the chocolate
chocolate is good
i used to go for the hair shirt and suffering in the pb..but it is time for some luxuries smaller...some grey poupn?
poupon*
but of course. haha
where is the snow in Australia?
oh and I have a theory about your wife's accuracy...
what a little sweetie you have in your icon bichon
i'm astutely guessing that you're rarely quiet. So her sonar always has a lock on you.
That's my Savannah, 1 y.o. on Halloween
Um I have no clue Bichon. Maybe google it. Hi Small
smallr..im a taurus,of course im rarely quiet;)
hi herin!
I really should be in bed
what is a hair shirt?
http://users.tpg.com.au/users/mpaine/s now.html
haha!
anyone is interested in the skiing in Australia
it's a penance thing ruru
herin, can you multitask and babble from bed?
smalls mageeeeeeee!
bichon, sure!
Back again. You mentioned the off trail skier, I hate it when these guys have been working out in the elements all day, and then they have to search for some idiot who thought it would be fun to ski off bounds. Sometimes they're out looking until the wee hours and then they have to get back to work.
nutty!!!!!!!!!
Oh I thought Tom Selleck was in the Penalty box or something
tom selleck is an eye dr at walmart
a hair shirt is a shirt that used to be worn as a pennance by church members of old,was made with coarse hair from pigs,goats etc and was worn inside out..bristly side in
If the skiing ins not that greast in Australia, go to NZ
<hangs head in shame> I've only just finished Fearless Fourteen. didn't even know it had been out for awhile
hmmm, now that would be worth slipping a few words into the chat
NUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTTTTTTTIE
indeed gramma!
ha ha ha...at least you got to enjoy is smalls, i can't even remember it
Personally ... I am not really into pennace... I am a free-spirit..
that's what my gram used to call me ruru
Bichon the skiing is pretty good here its just not my thing
i agree ruru:)
I would dearly appreciate a clue for that pesky bottom corner U. Any takers?
snowshoeing maybe. I like that a lot
up + erect
Small not really. I would love to.
Who is the "old dog"? ruru
TY
me
Hello everyone!
I meant the dog! lol
Snowshoeing is fun. And harder than it seems.
sniwshoing is ok,but the big muscle on the inside of each thigh gets to be a killer!
I love it. Good way to get around in the woods without having a major accident.
i tried snow shoeing onces, but they kept melting
I tend to biff it often for the first few minutes until i learn how to space my stride
the snowshoes <g>

these s words are killin me
quick hi; what's count pls
343
the tile stats say i that starts with U and I have 5 am I reading that wrong?
343
hey dan
hijinx, you have 5 words that start with U?
there is only one.
yep
yes
are they 4 letters or more?
yes
did the dictionary accept them? or did you get a red bar?
do you want me to post them
some of the U words you have are originating from the other U tile, probably
no.
there are 19 u words in total
people really hate it if you do that.
Oh yes, there is a second U!!!
then I won't
I thought there was only one. explains my slow proegress.
if u have 5 hijinx you still have a fair few u's to find :)
that was my question. the stats only say 1 so I can't really rely on the stats
No hijinx, the stats are correct, there is a second U which was 18 look carefully.
to the left.
bottom letter of 2 column hijinx
ok now I see it thanks
wow finished the s words...that was like climbing mount everest lol

my son needed some money, so i purchased it from him or i still wouldn't have any.
and, of course, i had to get a HD converter box
he needed $300 smack-a-roooonies & he wouldn't let me just give him the money - he made me take the tv - it's 26" so it's not a large one but the picture is so pretty.
Still very nice Nance.
i'm currently watching the breeders cup in horse racing - the picture is so pretty

I learned long ago to solve the uzzle from the back forward
In this bloopers show, getting a Bafta, Meryl Streep just said she wants to spank Spike Jones...
She meant thank, you see.
Have fun, Red! Need to trim Dane nails myself this evening.
how does she take that? is she ok??
Saskia? Yeah, she gets Most Concerned and moves her eyebrows up and down a lot, but as long as I keep a good grip on the ankle (her feet are tisklish) she doesn't fight too hard. Which is good because of course it's like chopping through solid concrete. But I've worked with enough vets and at enough rescue centers to be able to do this by myself.
awwww
It helps if I stuff her leg under my arm so my body's in the way and she can't quite see what I'm doing.
I need to get some new nail clippers for Hobbit. I've recently discovered that actually she doesn't mind me clipping the nails, so I'm going to
She's always so happy when I'm done that it just gets silly.
awwwwww
I had a Very Special Day with Hobbit today
Keep it up! Saskis'a nails got too long last year and she broke one up into the toe and it turned into a 9-weeks-inside infection nightmare with three vet visits!
Oh nice, what'd you two do?
she used to be very scared of all water, but over the last year we slowly got her happy with splashing around in the sea (as long as there were no waves. evil waves) and today! today for the first time she chased a stick into the sea and brought it back!
awwww how fun
pics on my flickr, if you're interested. she was sooooo good! I was so proud of her
200 words down ... finally
All right!!! We know about that kind of triumph. Saskia has her issues too. Took a year to teach her the child gate at the top of the stairs not only could not kill her swinging shut but that she can actually POKE it so that it opens. We think the cat going straight through was embarrassing her, which helped.
7 to go...us 5/12 clue pls?
yayyy wildcat!
go wild go
Just looked at them. Great! Give her a kiss for me.
lol there are still 143
go kim go
yay saskia! aren't dogs the funniest things?!
They sure are. And Saskia is, well, a tad autistic, really. We've both spent a lot of time around Danes and this is one, ahem, funny dog.
awwww. sounds like the cocker I used to have.

evening everyone :-)
hi swmbo
haz!!! kisses on your head.
Hello Katie!
TY Haz...not really fishy was that? Hopes not to be showered in Cod.
swmbo! hi!
You're welcome, skooj.
that was not fishy at all!
I'm going to carry on with the monster grid and watch the x factor at the same time. I'm poorly so hubby is indulging me :-)
hello swmbo.
I'm watching Strictly come dancing
What affliction has befallen you, Katie?
Good ploy Katie
I am watching Political news. beomcing enraged....
hey katie
So, turn it off, red. You do this to yourself all the time.
stop watching it then red
yes, but I want to know.
You want to know things that will make you cross?
What is infuriating you about the political news. Most of the news is bad these days
Yes Haz. I seem to want to know.
economic news is even worse
Yes Dorens Economic news is bad. I am trying desperately to squirrel away money.
I've just got this bug that has been going round. Was poorly on Wednesday Thursday & Friday but only had Thursday off but most of today has been spent in bed or the bath
red, i finally had turn the news off today. or i would have started drinking quite early.
The question is, where do you squirrel away money too. Investings not a hot idea and savings accounts pay so little return
Oh Katie, I am sorry you are not feeling well.
Are you feeling any better, Katie - over the worst?
bichon, the safest place I know of is Certificates of deposit.
windy rainy day here and some of the gusts are so strong i'm afraid I'm going to have power lines down and lose the internet.... branches are swaying like mad and leaves are pouring down like rain.
higher interest rate and you cant touch it.
I think so Haz, it just keeps waving over me. got to the stage now I just want to be right again. I'm going to give Church a miss tomorrow and hopefully the extra sleep will help
My great-aunt sewed money into the linings of her curtains. You can be sure that I won't be following that particular scheme.
Hi Dorens, it's the same in parts of the UK too, ugh and I have just remembered the clocks go back fur us tonight.
any government backed is generally the safest
expensive curtains!
interesting Haz.
I just rolled my pennies into coin rolls. I;ve found about 7 dollars in pennies in parking lots over the past 6 months.
i'm waiting for that weather to hit here in maine
wow red
I'm going to bank them soon to "earn interest" but also because its hard to spend 7 bucks of pennies.
I'm more worried about us both keeping our jobs, luckily we both have redundancy insurance and can manage the mortgage on one salary but it is something I didn't worry about a year ago and do now
Haven't had the air bag worry for months!!!!
If you miss Church tomorrow, does that mean you won't have to confess your laughter re the puppy?
Scary Katie. I at least am a nurse and think I can always work, though some jobs are harder to find these days.
I had a jar of coppers and put them through a 'change it' machine and there was near on £25!
laughter re the puppy?
I'll need to save it until next week, it's no doubled as I am laughing again :-)
That was one of your classic tales Haz!
Katie laughed at a very sad story that I told. And I thought she was an animal lover, as well.
*now
okay...i need to be done with this...di7/36 clue pls?
that was *fab*, Haz
It's amazing the value of those low level coins...that we save.
Laughing again, I am doomed!!
Laughter IS the best medicine!

I'm trying to learn a new type of Celtic design at the same time as doing the grid. It's not working. Neither thing!
Finish the grid and then the lines will flow?
or visa versa
that's what I'm thinking :) but the grid has 60 words left!
well I must away to the kitchen as I have gallons of chicken stock to prep for the freezer.
oooo
just tell me first - any ps or pt words?
How many chickens sacrificed themselves?
quite a few for gallons!
gallons
ps4/5
ps4 - can I have your attention?
and not pts
that's it? good
And off I go as well. Back tomorrow for another grid. happy babbling/boiling!
bye dears!
5 chicken carcasses saved and frozen from various roasts, plus the jelly and 1/2 doz drum sticks
wow!
I have a big stock pot :)
obviously!!
bye haz
love making it as it tastes so good and costs nothing.
bye Haz
bye fm, happy stockmaking
I'm off for a little while multitasking is beyond me today
awww get well soon, katie. find a cat to cuddle to
TTFN Happy Babbling
feel better katie
hey folks, is the EN6-7 pair fishy?
not really. en + di4/5 and pl
depends on how long you've been babbling... sounds like something juries do
pondering that...
ty vm ata!
dont get the jury thing though...
how do you pronounce indict?
the jury doesn't do it, the district attorney does it
precisely why i didn't get it hursh! LOL
yes, grand juries do indict
In many (though not all) U.S. jurisdictions retaining the grand jury, prosecutors often have a choice between seeking an indictment from a grand jury, or filing a charging document directly with the court -- wikipedia
but you didn't say grand jury, you just said jury, and people naturally assume that means the petit jury
so i can see where pug would get confused
mea culpa... didn't count on people assuming which type of jury. but pug's confusion is understood now
appreciate the attempt anyhow dorens! :)
that's cool :)
and thanks for the clarification, hursh
hi and bye all :) Checking icon theme for tomorrow and then dropping of to bed and sleep, not feeling great today. *hugs*
feel better sprite, sweet dreams
feel better spritey!
thanks :) *poof*
in the kittenal justice system, the kittens are represented by two separate yet equally important groups, the kittens, who investigate crime, and the kitten attorneys, who kittacute the offenders.
looool
hi, again. could i get clue for the te5/12?
feline frenzy today hursh?
oh no, i am agains kittacution.. down with kitital punishment!
as every day... :)
te double vowel cons
go kitties go
i went into work for a couple of hours to finish assembling some bookshelves today, and i brought marty. so now i can say my cat went to yale. i always knew he was a smart mart.
awwww yay marty!
good for marty
what job did you get there hurshy? don't remember if i ever heard
the people working on the building were rather confused to see a cat i think
lol I bet
oh, i'm a ... i mean my official title is admin assistant... but by nature i am a do-everything-that-needs-doing person.
in an interesting department?
yes, i like it very much.
clue please for SH7/32? my last S word...
that's terrific. I saw my son's office for the first time last week at harvard... it is beautiful, in the science building, and we have to walk down this spectacularly sunny hall with huge beautiful plants along the way
people bring their dogs lots of places, so i don't see why it should be weird to bring a cat.
te + two vows and a cons, hurshy? darn monkey!
it shouldn't be. do you bring him in a catcarrier? does he not mind being in it?
sh7 is some kinda middle eastern word i THINK
two identical vowels, skooj
not just two vowels, DOUBLE vowel.
sh + first **d for a cut + the sun makes you ***
i did not bring him in a carrier. i put them in carriers for long trips but just to pop over to work i just brought him.
carried him in your arms?. cool
ty vm dorens
thx, hurshy!!!
yeah, the carrying part is fine, but the riding in the car part scares him when he isn't in a carrier, so he complained.
in fact he uttered what i am sure was his record for longest continuous meow.
awwwwww
who knew his little lungs had so much air?
yah, mine really don't like riding in car without carriers, but then again they don't like it with either
that's one of those cat-alternate-planes things. they can always meow more than their lung capcity
he was better on the way home. they always are because they figure, well, we went somewhere, and i bet now we're going back.
ANy help for the lonely one N at the top of the grid?
well, now that was a bear! finis!

hi lady
hi tg
hi Guy...how are you today?
lucky you, red... I have 229 left... I'm not in the mood for a big board today
weather's bonkers.
hi trans Pug, Lady, and wildcat again.
hi Transit & LadyN
hello everyone!
I was thrilled with big board. It distracts me from the political news.
hi annie
hello againAnnie
hello AnnieB
hi wild, red and lynxxie
took daughter to thrift store to find a costume (which she didn't find)... in the hour we were going and back, it was so windy that a light standard fell across the road, visibility was nil because of dust and then snow started to blow
when we came out of the store, the sky was blue and sun was shining... still windy though
15 minutes later, clouds roll in again and more snow.
very windy here too in brooklyn, ny
snow's not landing and staying, just blowing around.
now the sun is starting to break through again
part of the reason for my leaving MI for sunny AZ, by way of NM
you go pav
where in AZ?
clue please for 2nd RE5/12 please?
hello all, back again to find more words
I would love to live somewhere warm, at on near a beach. I would be in heaven
hi peri
me too, peri
me too
Well, I would suggest they we pool our resources, but you folks are across the pond
no pond here
sorry, lady
re5.12 (might be) re & ***monds are a girls best friend
hi Peri
I was not meant to be a prairie girl. I love the mountains and the waters too much
hi lynxxx and stewie!
ty vm that one drove me bonkersd!
I think in a former life, I must have lived near the ocean.
I live in a big city and truly enjoy my time at the beach.
I live near the ocean
I want to visit Arizona and New Mexico. I think I would like the scenery
I know you do Annie and I am envious
But I have to be near the ocean. I am a Pisces
peri, please dont be envious....come and visit
me too, I try to go to the beach most days
Maybe I will Annie when the weather gets warm again. You are not too far from me.
i'm so annoyed that pi4ant is not on the grid
okay, peri.
I envy you too, Ata. I would love to get to the UK someday
I only get to the beach in the summer :(
annie having a babble party at the beach next summer?
that is a great idea, Dorens
it's cold here!!
that doesn't explain me, peri... I'm sagitarius
peri, you can come up with owl
I could. do that, but Annie has to say yes first
whereas I live 5 minutes walk from the beach and never go to it aside from occassional walk along the path. Sun, sticky sand and salt water - yuk!
wildcat...I'm in Phoenix...
Lady, maybe your moon or sun or whatever is a water sign.
I was in the kitchen...a beach-babblefest...what a great idea
we'll bring the food annie
Yes, I think it is a great idea, Annie
and a scrabble board
Oh, Lynx, if I lived near the beach I would be there everyday.
I have an original trivial pursuit game
I will supply the liquor and fixings....*slicing limes and lemons*
could be... all I know is that when my pisces (ex)husband left in 2001, I have had nothing but problems with water... sewer breakdown, mould, leaky roof, you name it.
which part pav? I grew up in Tucson
oh dear, lady, that is not good
annie I'm on my way over

Hi Kiwi...soooo many folks here today
Adolescents are very difficult, especially the girls. And I have two granddaughters
have i mentioned how smart my daniel is? (totally random brag post) this morning he was telling me about possums, that they're "nocturnal animals" i said what does that mean? "they come out at night" he says. :D
funny, scrab... even when i was thinking of med-peds (prior to choosing medicine) i liked them from about 6 years up.... can't handle when the little ones are sick...too sad
bichon - there is a town 45 minutes from here called "bahama" but pronounced "ba-HAY-muh"
i did yell out hi to your earlier over all the noise pav lol
red - I saw your clue and got the word. Thanks
feather i used to have them as pets when i was a kid
THanks Gwenski!!!

CHapel Hill Josh.
Yes, kje, the bad illnesses in kids are tough to handle for us. I just visited a 9 wk old in the PICU at our children's hospital. Diagnosis = Werdnig-Hoffman disease and he just got a GT and is on BiPAP.
but I am in Florida untilApril.
What is Werdbug-hOFFMAN, SOUNDS BAD
ugh scrab... glad there are yous
sorry for caps
It IS bad. It is also called spinal muscular atrophy (SMA)--"floppy infant". Look it up for details.
hello all, sounds awful, Scrabs
what is the prognosis for this baby, Scrabs
ok im off for a massage back later to see if i can get the last 100 done
These kids have normal brains trapped inside a body that cannot use its muscles.
oh really sad scrabbler.
re 6/21 following liquify fat?
liquify fat?
Peri, his future depends on how aggressive the family is with respiratory support. In the "old days" these kids just faded away with respiratory failure and pneumonia. Now they can be given resp support. It is a medical-ethical dilemma, with no right answer.
in 5/10/618?
in5= what a map has, or what a margin is on a page
oh, tough case, Scrabs. My heart goes out to his parents
ty Scrabs
Yes, they are 18--the mom is still our patient too. It is very sad.
Scrabs, a dear friend of mine and her husband are in Rochester with their son for some hockey matches. I don't know the name of their team tho.
ok then -- re 6/21 following to rip apart?
Oh, my such young patients.
I remember a few years ago when I worked on a peds floor. There was a sick baby and the parents were 15 and 16. The baby was about 2 and the mom was pregnant again.
Rochester is 1.5 hrs northeast of me. It is a nice city.

Odd word. TY, BW
oh my gosh, i hate the electric company
yes there are some odd words here.
Hi Hurshy, how are you? I dislike all of my utility companies.
they are SO stupid.
a lot of misspelled words also
can anyone clue the upper right corner i words, please? I can't seem to get anything
What did they do, Husrh?
i just got a letter from them telling about how they want to raise rates (but they have to get permission from the gov't i guess), and how you can go to this meeting if you have any comments.
they gave 3 reasons for the rate increase
and plurals of latin plurals
hi all want to get half way.............have 132........ugh.
i+***** sheets
book sheets for a bed or paper?
1) people have been buying less electricity 2) people have not been paying their bills 3) they need more funds for capital expenses to increase reliability
sheets for the bed. silky fabric
well, ok, if we want reliability, and they need to spend money to give it to us, i could understand. but the other two...
mkg--I have 134
tyvm! that gave me all 4!
i mean, isn't the usual supply and demand thing supposed to mean that when you raise the rates, people buy less, so if that is what is happening you should lower them? and if the rates are higher won't that just mean more people can't pay their bills?
I don't get those "i" clues. *embarrassed*
i + s**** and lace
Bottom line: we pay more for everything.
Evening all. See, this is why I will never understand economics, Hurshy. If people are buying/using less electricity, shouldn't that mean a decrease in demand therefore a need to produce less, therefore a reduction in production costs??
i + shiny (bridal) fabric
*wondering what goes with lace*
help with si7 please
Looks to me like their time would be better spent going after the deadbeats who don't pay their bills.
maybe that too judi, but, basically what they are saying is, the little people should suffer and their profits should not be cut into.
next 3 build on that
taffeta? ah, sa5
use plusses and minuses, they're sure to clear your si7
se 6 18 = se + getting down to the ***t*e grittie (not ***ty gritty)
Great. Sounds like Obama's Robin Hood economic policy. Take from the rich, give to the not so rich.
si 7 - plural the 5 -- body part allergies affect
*allergins
got the si7 thanks
robert reich was on the daily show last week and he was saying how basically we have capitalism for business profits and now socialism for their losses.
sorry, that se clue was a very late response to ruru
So, people that "can" pay, pay for all of those people that cannot or choose not to.
Exactly, hurshy
Egg - zacktly.
an8 please?
I bet that's always the case that we pay extra to make up for people who don't pay, but I would rather they not TELL me that
and you know, i don't even mind subsidizing poorer people's electric bills, but it does seem to me that raising the rates means there will be more defaulters.
Okay, were veering dangerously into political discussion. Run Run!

hello mrp
Mr. P! Hello!
hi there, mrp, congrats on the new house/home
but it's totally true that i read in the news that people are conserving energy both because rates are high (so like, they don't use as much AC) and bc of the environment - and now they want to penalize us.
TY for an8. I am glad it was not a fish.
qu ash
Hi mrp
hi there all :)) nice to see you! Thanks peri, only 2 weeks to go!
Oooh I am slowly grinding to a big halt.
BBS--I need to go into the basement and work on laundry
Damned if you do, damned if you don't. The only thing for certain is, we can't afford to pay any more for anything.
I've got 7 q. words so far mkg... campus center, q+ 3 vowels + plural that, what cjmomma just said, "sort of", and change last vowel of that to an S

Back before I slup i got a loan with I believe it is 5.25% interest. odd Mom and I are the same
Hi Mom!
we pay 7.25% fixed.
Actually, interest rates on mortgages have been low for quite some time, Mr. P. I think they are hovering at just a smidge over 6% these days. We locked ours in at 5 adn 3/8% about three years ago.
lind, going ok thanks!

Oh yes, My interest is fixed, no wacky baloon payments or stuff.

mine is 5 year adjustable, so will stay at 5.25 until 2013
by which time I'm pretty sure I'll have moved
Mine stays the same forever...

US 5/12 & not far but ***r
What is your mortgage rate, Mr. P?
but its not like I live there anyway.
double vowel or 2 vowels?
wow! ours have been up at 9.5% for this year, and have started to fall to around 8% in the last month
United States National Endowment for the Arts
thanks lind... my hero..
two vowels on my qu7 clue, cnan
double on lindrick's te clue
yvw ruru
gosh, your interest rates are so LOW!!
ty -- it was lindrick's clue I'm working on
I do remember when we were paying 18.5%!
it's that weirdo babblet
that would be terribly high here, MrP
wow mrp!
oh my gosh, MrP
That is a bit high compared to ours, Mr. P. Be thankful though. I remember in the 70's when my dad was paying about 16% interest on our mortgage when we moved into our newly built house. Those were the days of gas crisis, hostage crisis and anything else we can think to blame Jimmy Carter for.
i also need help on that last st 8/45 & 9 combo
still cand get the q words but ty for clues. cant get three vowel one.
wow. we do not even pay that on our credit cards.
ours are around 5.5%
home loans here can vary - but above 15%
sigh
mr pres, i am a realtor. depending on how much you put down and your credit score they can be from 5.5% today to 7 % on your own residence. if it is investment it is more.
mkg... qu+ 2 vowels
I think credit cards are about 21%
yes judi, those days were in the late 80's here... it was just so unaffordable!

oh & pl!
I told my husband, we'll never have a better interest rate in our lives, so we can NEVER move again. Not that I ever want to . Love where we live now.
MrP> South Africa ... I rent, don't own a house ... same goes for most South Africans
ty mkg!
ah mkg, I see... it is all for one and one for all here. I am waiting for the interest rates to fall back to about 5% before buying again
have to go back to work to pay the mortgage. ty for the clues. good bye
bye bye Bookwomen
bye bookwomen, have fun
ah kath, that is a darn high rate for these times
Uriah **** (how 70's) thanks a lot lind
I actually wish I might have waited until now to buy, home prices are much better now... Oh welll.
you know in ancient judaism, usury was defined as charging ANY interest on a loan...
mr pres, just wait. i am telling buyers to wait as i feel we are in for many tough years to come. many. world wide.
yvw ruru! LOL
Mr. P - our Federal Reserve keeps dropping the prime rate here. As the old financial dominoes seem to fall, that's bound to make it's way around to your side of the pond fairly soon.
MrP> Yes, but it's not just these times, we've had high rates for many years now.
uriah **** is not 70's! it's charles dickens!

pleasant dreams Kathihle
good on you scrabs! will be nice to have that monkey off your back
night kath :)
35 to go here... would like to get one more before I go to the list...
i predict many years to get out of the mess we are in. in the u.s. they were giving mortgages to everyone for years and now those people are leaving the houses and moving and the houses are a total mess and they didnt pay on them for a year or more............and the banks cant sell them for the amount of the loan. the loans were often 106% of the purchase price. i never understood it but the u.s. senators wanted minorities and everyone to be able to buy a house. it is a mess. so now billions of dollars are gone and the entire world will pay for this.
thanks need fish
Go nrk!!!
Good night, Kathi.
1st en?
almost half way...........
indeed mkg. that 'rescue' package that your president wants will be paid for by us all
Amen, mkg. Greedy, unscrupulous lenders and witless home buyers have made it a disaster for all.
okay now, someone clue a word I don't have yet please... :)

the US govt once gave 164 acres of land (is that the right number?) to anyone who would live on it and farm on it and make it work for five years. maybe they should start some kinda thing like that now for houses.
Sounds like a good plan for the homeless, Hurshy. In a perfect world...
ty ruru
when there is a roast, the people sit at the da**, Nrkii. Trying to help :)
yw:)
hurshy, it was actually a tough bargain... the live on it and farm it for 5 years thing was hard to do
I need one last re.. the last re 6/21 please
right above to replace
Criminy. Rain is coming down in buckets here. Wind kicking up quite a bit too. And hubby wants to go out for dinner. I asked him if he's willing to swim a mile for a beer.
or below to rip apart
i know! i'm not saying it should be super easy. it should be something you work for.
land prices are stupid here in sydney... absolutely ridiculous! and then the government comes up with a 'plan'... pay people back $20,000 to buy a home... so what does the home seller do?? put up the price of houses by $20,000!
Unfortunately, there are many, many people who are not willing to work for any reason. Perfectly willing to live off of the charity of others. My sister being one of them.
need three more words to half way.

Holy crap, nrkii! I'd leave the house and not come back until after midnight. Save money on silly candy.

mp, how is lickity' s business coming along? we checked out the site yesterday. Sounds interesting.
not me scrabbler... I love it... I am wearing a costume this year too
hi, all
I'm 95% done with my costume
Hi Pam
It reads: If this wine were human, it wouldn't wait for a special occasion to buy fresh flowers. It would listen to jazz in the car, full blast with the windows down. It would wear faded jeans. It would meet up with friends -- in the hot tub. It would know that a sunnday is a good day -- and a sunny day with a good book is a perfect one. It goes on to say enjoy with spicy dishes -- bouquet of spicy pears , citrus and floral overtones. Can anyone guess which varietal?
hi pam
Hi Pida
and today I had my hair colored the same shade of red as my costume wig, because I liked it so much
i think it's sorta fun, unless you get a lot of teens as aforesaid, in which case, i would hide next year.
I am doing something, but here is a link for kje, on the placebo thing I told you about earlier: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/1 0/24/health/24placebo.html?_r=1&oref=s login
hi pam!
pida, i have no idea! he just started doing bits and pieces to it, we are about to move house so it might be a backburning thing for awhile
HI everyone

hi, MRP, hope you are feeling well, and healing well

celebrating finish the grid *taking a sip*
maybe should get some gewurtz... can someone recommend a few? ruru? nan?
I can't imagine how hard it is, MRP....
is the grid slow today, or is it just my verizon server. It takes forever for it to take a word for me
welcome blue!
look for Beckers from Alsace, pam
hi lind and ty mom
mine is working fine, Pida

Hi Pam, welcome, Bluzebird, hi Pida,

hi pam scrabbler

Hi Scrab
not a dumb question at all... click on the link below the grid for Lickety's Babble's Clues and you'll see it
Good Evenin PaM how was your day. I did leave here for a bit!
ohhhhh . . . thank you!
no dumb questions, Bluzebird. You have to go to Lickety's Babble Clues
ha7 - more useful or easier to get at
or ha7 - more rapid
My favourite gewurtz in the world (that I've tasted so far) was from Beckers (can't remember the name of the town) -- 2nd favourite is from a small local estate winery called Sumac Ridge in Summerland, BC -- 3rd fav. is from Tinhorn Creek Winery in Oliver, BC
or ha7 - speeds up
ty
OK can I just say Nada on the television and I am out of books again drats
thank goodness for babble then red!
my favorite Gewurz is from Alsace...
I heard you were all very nice here :)
we pretend to be Bluze...
2nd ha9?
I find it to be a wonderful group of people, Bluzebird
oops, I mean, OF COURSE we are nice
yes, but I am getting to be babbled out. 110 left.
Pam -- just looked at a map to refresh my memory -- I think Beckers Winery is in Riquewihr
most are nice, yes : )
kje is mean, but we like her anyway.
let's try this again ...... {{KJE}} hello
it is true
I'll second that...
Haha, red, that is mean to kje.
see what we mean?
hi (((mom)))
hi there, how are you?
which is your favourite ruru?
Thanks, ruru and nan.
Hi, scrabs and all..
i am ok... wondering what possessed me to start this @#$%$#$@ grid
I tasted an aweful lot of it during the 10 days be spent in Alsace!
Domaine Weinbacn Gewurztraminer Cuvee Theo
i am mooning you ruru
I wonder the same thing, didn't start until 6:20 this evening
second ha9 = speed
that is what i think of your comment
kje it isnt that bad, its just long I have wanted a long grid for a long time. I am actually thinking about having some coffee here. As I do not have to work tomorro.
don't think I've tried that one
sorry kje, it took me that long to find it
TY
Have you tried any of the Okanagan Valley ones, ruru?
Red, work was productive, adn the vet called with Pearl's blood panel results, she doesn't have hypothyroid. But with her advanced Heartworm, though it's being treated, they don't want to chanfge her meds... (Benadryl and tapering off Preds) for her horrid skin issues...
I am breathless..
stunned
Ruru, is your fave affordable?
the first gewurtz I ever tried was a California one, and it was very very good
Ooooh Poor pearlie.
lol... you are a brat
How is the HW treatment going?
There are some that are pam...
thanks, red...
Lazy Creek From Mendocino is very good and reasonable..and so is Navarro's from the same area
lol, ruru
She is in the first week of her post-oral treatment. Four more weeks of total restriction on exercise
long is an understatement red
I think pam is in france, though, or am I wrong?
but coffee sounds good... pass me some?
Thanks, ruru, sorry that my wine habit has a monetary constraint...
LOL, just until after the elections here, nan
Teulu would be going nuts. I actually gave him Valium today to flea comb him. and to be honest I wonder if it ever took effect.
oh I see -- like ruru
I love the big grids, kje...
I have not quite made it, I do like to sleep.
mom, what is for dinner?
LOL, red... it wouldn't on me... but I am glad I don't have fleas...
But I can give you some Babble coffee. I have sumatran and Kona which do you want?
not me pam... they cause serious grid grouch... i think i may have ADD - LOL
sumatra!
LOL, kje---why not, everyone thinks they have ADD
BRB--blood sugar is plummeting --> I need dinner.
Sumatra!
kje, did you get the ha9 you were looking for?
yes, ty nrkii
the trick kje is to do a little, go to the gym, do a little more...go play facebook...do a little more....watch political news and become incensed.
We ALL have ADHD in the USA because we are sleep deprived and are multitaskers.
eat healthy, scrab, see ya later
have lazy creek written down -- couldn't find one local gewurtz that I liked when we were in CA last spring -- they all tasted like sugar water or battery acid!
LOL, red!
i want to skip the incensed today, red... it is wearing me out : )
no ... these nan are drier types..
okay that really helped i got my last qu and it was only a 4!
did find a lovely vouvray at world market, however
me too.
I don't know, scrabs.... some of us are content to contemplate our navels...
hi all, hoping my brains don't dribble out my ears before i find the 343rd word!! 8-)
Navarro's is also good too..
world market... I miss world market....
mine is an innie... yours, pam?
somehow if I dont watch I am convinced SOmething I wont like will happen.
I like drier wines...
I like about a 1 or 2 out of 10 on the sweetness scale, but also with a little bit of body to it
I have not tried any Okanagan Gewurz.. but I have tried a Pinot Gris from up there.. it was pretty good.
Hi Gwen
mine has lint in it..
which winery?
Wine makes me woozy.
innie, too, kje
Burrowing Owl
well we now know kje and Pam are nto aliens.
lol pam
THe trick is Red to just drink a reasonable amount
yes -- one of our better one for the reds -- iffy on the whites, depending on how hot and dry the summer was.
lol
LOL Ruru...it happens after hafl a glass!
ruru, what is a reasonable amount?
Hi mr P.
hi turtle :)
1-2 glasses...
My navel is quite the innie---I could hide illicit drugs in there.
I am back with a bowl of Cheerios.
and the volume of the glasses??
is that dinner, scrab?
ooooh Yum Scrabbler.
All I haev is grape nuts, not a great snaky food.
Try Tinhorn Creek or Sumac Ridge for Pino Gris and Gewurtz (if you can find them) -- both are a little further north of Burrowing Owl and have a better climate for the german style whites.
help with the ha 9/72 please
I have tried something fro SUmac Ridge once..
i have red wine glasses that are 500ml ! LOL
grape nuts are like eating gravel
Also both those wineries are on the west side of the lake where the soil is not quite so acidic as the east side
the trick is RURu, to put milk in and microwave them with fruit.
but yes they are like gravel. I do agree.
Yep, I love cereal. But I will have something later during the hockey game.
I concur.
red, I agree, but I'd use brown sugar in stead of (or in addtion to) fruit
.. I don't have a micro wave... don't believe in them
Are you going to see the Sabres Scrabbler>?????
fruit is good for you.
Yes, Sabres vs Colorado.
1st in?
Oooh I am jealous. The Sabres are my team.
ruru, warm the milk and let the grape nuts stew in it for about 20 minutes, they'll soften right up :)
Well the hurricanes and the Sabres.
IN 5 = not able
finished my glass of wine, so must be off to start supper -- back at the flip if we still have cable service!
why not have oatmeal then?
or is it not smart?
IN 5/12 - in+ able
see you then cyber, I will still be working on this grid.
thanks cyber..
not fitting
sh**... i kept trying for inept ... so close
bye bye Cybernan
ha 9/72?
ty, btw
don't like warm cereal, eat it dry, usually... something very cardboard-esque, low in sugar... I like crunch
potty mouth..
Well, oatmeal has less of a nutty taste to be honest.
ha 9 72 = not foot + another word for iron (as in ironing clothes)
Toasting all of you with my glass of Bin 2
ty nrkii!!
not me
My favorite is the cinnamon toast crunch generics.
that was my evil twin ejk
Like my teeth too much to eat grape nuts...
ugh, red...
My dentist makes enough money.
LOL, ruru
More for me. i brush.
my favorite is maple brown sugar mini wheats
if I want a sweeter, I eat frosted mini wheats, no milk... Don't like milk in sweet cereal at all....
wow, mini wheats without milk???
I think I'd choke to death
yep... dry...
evening to all Babblers :)
i like the quaker oat squares without milk.
do you drink with water?
cereal chat, ack!
You should make an effort to get milk in Pam
LOL, nrkii! I drink WAAAAAAAAAY too much water throughout the day for that to happen...
i like oatmeal... the irish stone ground stuff... not the mushy flaked stuff... chewy and nutty
I do, red, just not in cereal... it gets warm too fast, cereal gets mushy, etc.
i also like to use them in my chex mix.
I am feeling the need to consume now.
milk is for cows...
quaker oat squares are good without milk, I agree
Pam eats too slow.!!
1st is?
i have not had Quaker Oat squares, but Honey Nut Chex is the bomb
is + vowel + can metal
That's the oatmeal I like, kje. Can't eat it if it's not hot, though. Once it cools off, the texture gets to me...
any clue for the i in the middle of the grid. I simply do not have any.
LOL, red, not really. Just love crunchy food.

red, that site is hysterical
i keep turning the light switch off, and she says Oh Dear!
hi mummy!
kje introduced me to it.
gwen she does come back, like a cockroach after the nuclear explosion.
that kje, she has her finger on the pulse....
turtle, i see. in fact, i see oil rigs on the lawn now. were they there before?
clue for an 6 21 please?
pl of the an4
ty how silly of me.
clicked on teh oil rig and now the roof is leaking, i think
clue for the second ne 5/10 please
yes gwen
neatens
kje sure does. I hope she has a nice gropy date.
LOL red... she'd better give details later!
sorry wrong box
haha you made up that part
Thanks shirlo I needed than and the one before it...102 left.
shirlok said a wooooooooooooooooord
drop the snake for another word, red
crap, i meant drop the hump letter (sorry i have road fatigue)
gropy?
Its ok i had that one!
She gets a lot of gropes.
BDG, we were hoping to hear details about KJEs da4, if it involved groping
no, i mean, is that a word? gropy? LOL
I doubt it gwen, I made it up.
oh no! i just shot a deer!! that was wrong!
well, isn't "ropy" a word?
yes, but there's no logic in english, is there
Mr P, shocked i am!
No no Mr P you didnt caribou barbie did
this palin site is hilarious
Kje started it, the shooting gets worse Mr P.
the red phone is too much! booooooom
Mr. P, click on the door (do it over and over)
I believe there is a symbolic red phone on the presidents desk that will do just that!!!
ok, will do
sometimes there's Saks Fifth Ave bags behind the door, sometimes animals, it keeps changing
click on the light switch
same as behind the door on the right hand side of the desk...
the lefthand remains the pit bull..
yes that too, pam... too funny
oh did you click on the globe?
is it really a PB though pam?
de 7 please?
click on the rug and the curtain folks.
yes did that red... lots of the items you click on, she says "Joe Lightbulb" "Joe the chair" etc etc
OK sorry about that guys, I'm back! Had my Mum on the phone for over an hour! lol
any clues for de 7?
how about un 7?
lindyyyyyyyyy
to take people off of a chair, transition (or beat a incumbent)
the gods, mkg
monkeyyyyyy
oops got it
i just sent the funny url to a bunch of friends. they need to waste their time there too LOL
what about joe the plumber?
what about him, ru? all he wants is a chance to succeed....
ty. actually tried with y but wasnt in grid. ty
TY for that clue, mraehoover
yikes
yw, mkg and lil
he is not even a plumber
still 151 words to go. this grid is too long. i swore not to start any over 150 words. why did i start this one??????????????????????
I was just adding to the Joe list...
and doesnt pay his taxes anyway, so what does he care.
de7 - gods or godesses
I read somewhere that after joe the plumber was revealed to be a contractor who owes back taxes, that the republicans still don't know how to vet people...
di 6 21 plz?
ty mr p
I was being facetious, by the way, paraphrasing palin...
but now Palin today was calling pout Ed the dairy man and tito the builder...
no NOT get me started on joe the effing plumber and the republican shitheads who are runing this country
sorry, mkg...i need di 6 21 as well
Hoping for change...I am indeedey
Palin makes me want to shriek... $150,000 for clothes and hair, but the campaign is frugal... Own your majesty, Sarah, and be honest...
that reminds me, must watch SNL tonight
yes not a word either indeedy.
LOL, red
hope that tina fey is on tonight
today she said "You and I we are all Joe the Plumber"
republicans purge millions of voters from voter registration rolls then squawk like little babies about ACORN
There is a dude who stands on a busy street corner every day during rush hour waving a toilet Plunger a McCain sign and waving the American Flag....
does anyone have clues for di 6s or 7s? dont have any o f them
SHE might be Joe the Plumber, but I would rather ally myself with Joan the Teacher, Joe the reader, and Juan the lawyer
I find him amusing but also a bit frightening.
republicans to business with terrorists the world over, start wars of aggression, lock up and torture innocent poeple, then say they are "fighting terrorism"
Plumbers make tons of cash Pam...
LOL, red
I'm glad our election is over! lol
Oh no I got the grid riled up.
Sorry folks.
I know, red, they work hard, and etc., but the GOP use of plumber has poisioned th trade for me...
republicans cozy up to lobbyists then accuse dems of cozying up to lobbyists. ack. i got started!
I seem to do that a lot lately. must stop or I shall become unpopular.
popping in to say hello, then quickly withdrawing as this conversation isn't conducive to happy thoughts
LOL, red....
okay, let's talk about canada instead LOL
Ok so lets talk about the weather shall we, or others holiday plans???
hi autumn, how ya doin?
Hi, autumn...
not yet mkg... confusing ones
Autumn I am making a switch in converation NOW.
di 7 32=di + double cons + consume food
plans for halloween, and for election night. oops!

(pretending to look for words but can't look away from chog) Hi Pam, Lind, Red....
I am going on holiday in 9 sleeps - that is a happy thought!! lol
wierdly Halloween is my Grnadmothers FUneral.,
di 8 45 is plural, mkg
aawww sorry to hear that red
I fly to Ontario on the 31st
my former roommates, now in their own house, decorate entire front lawn with life-sized monsters, zombie chipmonks, etc. they do sound system using two computers and hidden speakers, sound effects and spooky music . . .
Its too odd, but....better than yesterday.
di 7/36, is a female who perfomrms monologues. = di + snake cons + 2nd vowel and us 4/5 - a cons. hope that helps
Cool BDG.
Condolences to you red

mrpres you there
