3:15 am

i would imagine the smell would be bad, my crazy sister lives in a 1 room flat with 2 cats and a dog and no yard, its not pleasant

3:15 am

Oh Herin, I couldn't agree more - not clean and not nice for the animals

so true sandy

But the poor animals were.

nd did someone say wine? must get myself a glass

3:22 am

I tried going dogless for about 6 months... just couldn't stand not having a pup around and broke down and got one

3:23 am

andree, why don't you discuss getting a little dog with the landlord, sometimes they will be reasonable if you are a good tenant

With renting our biggest problem is the cat shredding everything.

3:23 am

i feel like breaking lease terms and getting one on a daily basis

3:24 am

well, I'm off... g'night all

Could you speak to the land lord?

Night Hugs

3:24 am

or .....Andree, do you throw a lot of wild parties?

3:24 am

they think we are the best tenants they have ever had but i am not in touch with landlord only the agent who is a pain in the butt

3:25 am

ask the landlord to ask the owners.

3:25 am

bye, Hugs!

3:25 am

wildest i get around here is having the family to dinner or the bridge girls over

3:26 am

We have three dogs and want another one but the husband of evil doesn't agree

3:39 am

I must add that I didn't sit at the computer for the whole time trying to open it (just half the time cos I am sort of addicted).

3:39 am

Olli, it is all explained there. When you see "ae4,4" that means there is a word which starts ae, has 4 letters, and a score of 4.

And if you want to try out a word, you can type it in the box at the top and it will show up in the correct place.

Oh, I have news!! I got 6 new pets today!!

7:31 am

6?

Chicks !! gorgeous black chicks!!

all layers, they are 10 weeks old

7:31 am

nice;)

they are very sweet natured too! they won't be laying for another 2 months. The children have even named them... 'cuddles', 'hazel', 'dinner' etc etc!

7:33 am

ah fireworks at last and now a wine and off to bed - have fun all tc

7:33 am

we had laying hens once..up here they are a pain in the butt as a hobby,especially in the winter,heating lamps,bales of hay and you still go out there some morning to find that one of the stupid things stood in one spot all night in his water dish while it all froze around his ankles,not to mention the ones that get a taste for egg shell.that happens if you dont get out there twice a day and grab those eggs and they step on one..

I am just going with the Borg way of naming... ie 2 of 6

7:34 am

dont forget to buy grit;)

grit! tell me about that?

7:35 am

it is a mixture of very fine clean sand and ground clam or oyster shell

I have chick feeder at the moment... and vegetable scraps

7:35 am

helps thier digestion and make thier own eggs big and strong with nice thick shells

what does that do for them cross?

ah, thank you!

7:36 am

morning all!

7:36 am

as you co-op feed store about it

7:36 am

ask

7:36 am

howdy dan

I will. I am getting laying pellets in a couple of months, but would prefer to feed them organic

hi dan! :)

7:37 am

here you go mrp...

7:37 am

http://www.i4at.org/lib2/chickens.htm

I know it is very important to give them chick feed, and some pellets, as it has antibiotics and medications in it to stop them getting sick

thanks crossy, will go have a look

7:38 am

free range is best mrp with a nice big fenced paddock leading to thier little chicken barn

7:39 am

and to keep thier floor/straw clean..they get this foot disease otherwise

7:40 am

thier feet swell and they cant stand and you end up with all theese birds falling over all the time

7:40 am

and clean poop[ free water(they love to poop in thier water supply) or they get rickets

7:42 am

good afternoon all

7:42 am

for 6 birds id do water changed twice a day and the straw/floor done every second or 3 rd day your in a warm climate so your lucky there

7:42 am

howdy sprite

7:42 am

7:50 am

i wouldnt want anyone pushing the big red button due to a missed comma now would we?

Ancient orators tended to Babylon.

Hi Annie.

8:24 am

LOL, BR.

8:24 am

8:24 am

Hi BR!

8:26 am

Thanks anyway Jac. That's the one I have also

8:28 am

You need to set up a dig to find things on your desk, Sprite??

8:29 am

*shamelessly nods head*

8:30 am

*giggles helplessly* (And I thought MY desk was cluttered!)

8:31 am

I used to be one for a place for everything and everything in its place. Then life happened. And now it is more like a thing in every place.

8:31 am

Know the feeling, Sprite.

8:33 am

Speaking of things in their place, I have a load of washing that needs to come out of the machine and onto the line to dry. I'd better go and do that.

8:33 am

you are a hero, Jac

8:35 am

yay, I'm glad someone else hangs their wash..

8:36 am

ooh, just found the he9.. monkeyed it

8:37 am

I love to hang wash it smells so good

8:48 am

sue, it is a superlative

8:48 am

8:49 am

9:31 am

thank you, spritey and nan

9:32 am

9:33 am

9:36 am

I must do some housework (as much as I dislike it) but I know I will feel good when it is done..so I am off

9:36 am

yay Annie, you rock!

9:36 am

LOL, bye!

9:37 am

It's taken me 1/2 hour to get half way :( -- looks like the rest are going to be tough sledding

9:38 am

There can't possibly be another 70 words! -- too many vowels

9:39 am

lots of variants of the same word, cyber

9:39 am

I still need a 9, an 8 and 3 7s, lol, plus a lot of smaller ones. Good grid, but not a whoozy!

9:40 am

if we can have the seine, why not the saone

9:41 am

or does it have 2 n's?

9:41 am

ea6/18 take the superlative es 7/18 and drop the last letter

9:41 am

pab, total points today 1777

10:06 am

thanks Nono

10:06 am

hi Sprite when does puppy come to live with you?

10:07 am

first week of April, Nanette! We are counting down days now, and not weeks anymore!

10:07 am

woohooo you must really be excited about it

10:09 am

we are! Got some last stuff for him today. Now only we need to empty the bottom book shelves, put the shoes away higher and make sure he cannot get to the electricity cables.

10:10 am

all very important tasks but you will be ready in no time at all

10:10 am

yes we will have it all settled in time and then it is going to be so much fun! A lot of work too, I know, but am looking forward to it immensely

10:15 am

pet shop wanted to sell us metal eating and drinking things and I looked at them... sooooo ugly!

10:15 am

is terra the only one of the litter with mum's coloring?

10:16 am

yes he is!

10:16 am

so I got 2 great ceramic ones :)

10:16 am

he is going to be gorgeous

10:16 am

:)

10:17 am

i prefer the ceramic over the metal ones

10:17 am

they are heavier and a bit more stable. not so easy to tip over

10:18 am

exactly, these won't 'walk' all through the kitchen when he is eating or drinking

10:22 am

whooo a couple of latin plurals and I have FIREWORKS!

hi all, i have an icon for today finally...

10:25 am

good morning, and hi, red - lovely photo - where was it taken?

10:25 am

Hi Red

10:26 am

my cat for some reason won't drink from the ceramic one until she moves it about 2 ft from where it is

10:26 am

she only started doing it

10:26 am

hoof

10:26 am

hoofy

Not entirely sure its my Mom and Me, and I think we are either at Point Reyes Cali or Arcadia Maine...

10:26 am

dang, sorry

10:26 am

if I can figure out how to scan and save a photo, I will update my icon too

10:27 am

hi Shirlock, I tried hoofy too

10:27 am

should be a word

10:28 am

I think I just realized, looking at your photo, red, that although we have hundreds of photos of us as kids, I don't think I have one with just my mom and me - I think she was the one taking all the pictures!

10:28 am

shirloc have you tried a different location for kitty to eat and drink

10:28 am

lol @ your cat. They can be quite particular, can't they. My husband's cat refused to drink from anything but the plant waterer.

10:28 am

it

JBV, its the same with me, this one is a rare one.

10:28 am

it's been in the same place for years

10:28 am

oh jeezzz sorry Nanette I missed your fireworks. Gratz!

10:29 am

and then about a month ago she started moving the water bowl, not the food bowl

10:29 am

this

10:29 am

hi red, what a sweet pic

10:29 am

I have found that recycling old photos as gifts (with a nice frame) is usually a much appreciated gift

I like this theme a lot.

10:30 am

good idea! I wish my scanner would behave so I could scan a pic.

10:30 am

my sister just reupholstered an old family armchair (circa 1950) and I have a photo of her sitting on the original at 3 years old - she loved it!

10:30 am

wow, that is special, JBV

Thats so cool JBV. I like that sort of thing.

10:30 am

I don't think i have any pics of myself as a small child..... i lost almost all photos in a flood several years ago

Oh Nanette, thats sad do you have brothers sisters that might have some?

10:31 am

rotten flood! Just the things you can never replace :(

10:31 am

we have a nice tradition in our family - my mom made a "photo wheel" (it's like a rolodex) with all our best family photos - and my sister, brother and I now rotate it so that all of us have a chance to own it for a while

10:31 am

they have both passed on red and both were much older than I

Oh nanette very sad.

10:32 am

that is something great, JBV!

10:32 am

that's very sad, NoNo

10:32 am

note to self: 1st things to save in emergencies

10:33 am

it's in my home now, so I have taken it upon myself to copy and scan as much as I can before I have to relinquish it again

Thats one reason I like to now have scanned stuff saved in a few places including On line.

10:33 am

it was the only things lost in flood that could not be replaced and it saddened me immensely

I feel sad for you. I treasure photos of my Grandmother when she was 3- years...Big hugs for nono.

10:33 am

I have done that with a lot of my kids pictures red

10:34 am

Red, I think I saw that you are staying in Florida. Did you take a direct job at a hospital in the Orlando area?

10:34 am

good morning everyone

10:34 am

morning Flosey

10:34 am

morning flosey

Hi Chiley! i did miss youthe other day. I will be at Florida Hospital in East Orlando.

10:34 am

Hi Flosey and all other Babblers

Hi Flosey!

10:34 am

well i really should get going.... have to run scan on puter and such

10:34 am

happy babbling everyone

10:34 am

awwww you are so adorable, flosey!

10:35 am

wb chiley

10:35 am

bye Nanette

10:35 am

Good for you. I'm sure it will be nice to feel "settled"

10:35 am

lol, thanks sprite

right now its very messy but I amlooking forward to getting a huge fish tank and really settling in. :) we need to have a Fl Babbler Get together.

10:36 am

Sounds like fun

Flosey, I love your photo!

10:37 am

Salt water tank? We used to have a few. We would go diving or snorkeling and catch fish to put in them.

10:37 am

thanks red

10:37 am

very cute, flosey!!

I'm thinking fresh will be a bit easier...I am not very experienced at fish keeping....so cool to catch your own Aquarium fish!

10:38 am

ty jbv

10:39 am

It takes a lot of maintenance for salt water. But they are SO beautiful.

10:39 am

chiley, what an adorable baby you were

10:39 am

Thanks Flosey. You wouldn't believe how much my grandson looks like me at that age.

10:40 am

red, our entire family watched Mash,

I may go with a brackish tank because there are several fish that do well with a few bits of salt, but not as much knowledge required!

10:40 am

aw that is really cute, chiley! But your icon of your son and grandchild was equally delightful.

I Love MASH, Thats left over from an old icon day!

10:40 am

Oh, I've never seen one of those.

10:41 am

MASH the series? Absolutely top of the top.

10:41 am

I meant I've never seen a brackish tank

10:41 am

sure was sprite - and the grand finale - to end all grand finales

Mostly used for Puffers, but I found out there are several other fish that can do well, like cichlids...

10:42 am

oh yes :)

10:42 am

Well, I really must tackle Mt. Laundry. I'll be in and out trying to conquer this beast of a grid too. Have a great day/night all.

nest of luck with laundry chiley...enjoy the breeze.

10:43 am

~*~*~*~*~* F I R E W O R K S *~*~*~*~*~

Oh darn, I meant Best and now I am also in PB!

congrats JC!

10:43 am

good luck chiley!

10:43 am

lol red, and gratz JC

10:43 am

Thanks, red! :)

10:44 am

Thanks, sprite! :)

10:44 am

flashy hairdo, JC

10:46 am

JC what a cute little fellow you were

10:46 am

Ugh, didn't have much say in the matter then, sprite! :P

10:47 am

Thank you, flosey - how sweet of you to say! ;)

Its ok JC, I had what looks like the exact same hair cut. my mom hated to brush my hair.

10:48 am

Really, red - even as a girl?

Yes, you can see it in the icon. I was called a boy for soooo many years.

10:48 am

in dutch that is called a plant pot hairdo. Seriously. They used to put a plant pot on a child's head, and then cut off all that escaped from it.

10:49 am

red, my sister and I had very short hair but long enough at the sides to get a great big metal curler in every night - now that was an uncomfortable sleep!

10:49 am

Oh, I can't see your entire head there, red - but from what I can see, it doesn't look as 'boyish' as mine did - and you look ever so cute! :)

Metal curlers for kids ouch!

Thanks JC...I was a very shy kid. with short short hair.

10:50 am

hen, in daytime we wore huge bows in our hair!

10:50 am

Not quite, sprite - I've seen 'bowl' cuts, and they're hideous! :P Remind me of monks' heads in some older pictures . . .

10:50 am

**then

10:50 am

I cant money the xe5, can someone lay it out for me?

10:51 am

I've been struggling with it forever too sue

10:51 am

Well I had very short hair too, red - but then being a boy, that was quite normal . . .

10:51 am

Yes, let me try, Sue . . .

10:51 am

xe** the warrior princess with extra vowel added

I think I looked alright in the late seventies, womens lib was all the rage...

10:51 am

It's like the Warrior Princess - only with an extra vowel in there.

10:52 am

xe5: xe + hard thing on top of your finger, drop last letter, switch vowels

10:52 am

HAHA, yes - like Stephanaki said, also . . .

10:52 am

lol memories of haircuts in US they used to call it a bowl cut same as plant pot hairdo then since it didn't sound good for girls ours was the "pixie" but why were the bangs always short and uneven?

10:52 am

It's the name of Boris Godunov's daughter

10:52 am

Hmmm, speedfreak - bad hairstylists? :P

kids moving at the stylists!

10:53 am

Yes, that's much more likely, red . . .

10:53 am

lol speedfreak, not just a dutch thing then :)

10:53 am

got it, ty all

10:53 am

going out

10:53 am

poof

10:54 am

Well, short break over - have to run. Good luck to you all, finishing . . .

10:54 am

10:54 am

10:55 am

10:55 am

10:56 am

oh you must be so anxious to get that little one with you

I imagine the children are really excited!

10:57 am

I have the kids check all my pockets before we leave the breeder's, lol, and I check theirs.

10:57 am

my husband won't let me go to the shelter because I want them all then I cry all the way home

Is husband coming around Sprite?

10:58 am

oh dear, I can imagine. I would too!

I am back and stuck on ta6, a clue please?

10:59 am

oh yes he is, red! Quite satisfactorily!

10:59 am

my 9 yr. old rottie has been diagnosed with cancer so we are just spoiling her rotten while she is with us but I know I will get another dog we also have a 3 yr. old shepard both were rescue dogs

yay for mr sprite!!!

10:59 am

that would be the worm, I think, Marc. with the 7 as plural (latin)

11:00 am

oh speed I am so sorry :(

don't know it

11:00 am

let me think of a clue...

11:01 am

favo brits drink, switch vowels + first 2 letters of not day + same vowels as the first syllable

11:02 am

thank you sprite never heard of that

11:02 am

(that should have been satisfactory, right? Silly me making up extra syllables in that word...)

11:03 am

yvw speed. Drop last letter for the 6.

11:03 am

thanks Sprite, have never heard of such a worm

11:03 am

thx got them both

actually satisfactiorailly (you spelled it right) is very correct English sprite.

11:04 am

Ata taught me that worm! She knows them all.

11:05 am

wow, who knew, thanks red!

Got the 6 now going to find the 7

11:06 am

add a vowel, Marc.

11:06 am

Good timing - hi all - thanks sprite

11:06 am

hi hootowl, nice to see you again

Thanks got them both

11:06 am

have to take a break, stuff to do for bridge this afternoon, bbl

Well, at least I hear it said by many Americans...so if its wrong....you will have a lot of company.

11:07 am

how is Woulf doing these days, hootowl? I think of him a lot, still miss his presence in chat a lot!

11:07 am

I am trying hard to be on more often.

11:08 am

Well they have all been sick and he's working crazy hours so he needs sleep more than babble. But I'll be seeing him next month and will try to get him on to prove he is still alive.

sleep is more important than Babble..

11:09 am

Would I recognise that worm in englis?

11:09 am

nice seeing this group I am not usually on the same time as you all lately, time for me to get saturday housework going....later

11:09 am

I'd rather have him sleep and get better, than babbling and draining himself, hootowl. Please just give him a big hug from me?

11:09 am

you now, that language I'm supposed to know....

11:09 am

no hootowl, it is not a common english word. It looks very latiny. It is a tape worm.

11:09 am

I give up.

11:10 am

Well thats english enough.

11:10 am

I clued it a few minutes ago. "favo brits drink, switch vowels + first 2 letters of not day + same vowels as the first syllable"

11:11 am

I will hug him for everyone but first me!

11:11 am

and so you should, lol, you're entitled. But I am not everyone, grinnnn... hug him from sprite!

11:11 am

I got the words that's why I thanked you

11:12 am

yes ma'am!

11:12 am

my pleasure :)

sh8's, [;ease

I have one March its squatters homes.

11:14 am

ah I see why I thought you didn't find them yet... you said you gave up. Sorry to get you wrong :)

That is suppose to be please

11:14 am

11:20 am

oh wait, I think I got them

11:20 am

11:21 am

it's same as the other sh but use the chair letter at end

11:21 am

you need to put a consonant at the end of the 6/21

11:21 am

and then plural for the other 8

11:22 am

What are you all talking about? I have never played before and am confused!

11:23 am

11:23 am

ha, good clue sprite

11:24 am

first fo5?

Got them both thanks

11:24 am

Hi Billy, welcome. When someone clues a word as, for instance, an4/5, it means there is a valid word starting an, 4 letters long in total and worth 5 points.

11:24 am

ooo, never mind

11:24 am

the warm wind, I think, Shirlock

11:24 am

yvw Marc

11:24 am

I think I need to know how many 6/21s there are - my one already has a consonant on the end

11:25 am

hi jmc

4:24 pm

uh yes, exactly

4:24 pm

lol what a topic to come in on!

4:24 pm

hi oodle

Sorry Jmc, I had to ask kje...she knows a lot about.

4:24 pm

I have popped in on worse, jmc... one day... how you would like to die

4:25 pm

I just spent 4 hours with my MIL

4:25 pm

its fine red

4:25 pm

there have been a few nude moments too

jmc, very very cute pic. kje where is yours?

4:25 pm

ty I would have been sooner but ws scanning it

4:25 pm

well... nudity is completely acceptable in babbleland

4:25 pm

rather popping in than pooping in

4:26 pm

where is what?

4:26 pm

I am just sorry I don't have the software to clean up the spot

your photo of yourself s a child, i like this icon theme.

4:26 pm

4:27 pm

I am lucky that my Mom scans stuff like a maniac.

4:27 pm

so red are you the tiny little peice of a child on yours?

the spot on the jacket jmc?

4:28 pm

hmmmm - i see mostly mom i think red

4:29 pm

kje I suggested last night to jillibus to use her digital camera to take a photo of her photos--that's what I did for my mother's 90th birthday party

If you email me the photo, in its original size, my mother might could fix it. I will sk her if you like. She is very talented...both in photography and the use of photo shop.

4:29 pm

do I have your email?

jmc, I did that with my passport and travel documents...the digital image, it was muh easier to email that aorund than send copies of passport...

htaggart@gmail.com

4:30 pm

uuuhhhhh - to email a photo, don't you have to have it in electronic form???

4:30 pm

yes and the point is that if you take a photo you have it in electronic form

you take a digital photo of the photo..

4:30 pm

telling her to check the first 4, 3 of which work at their hospital.

Since I have ea 5/10 dinner,I can do a paragraph full of hi 5/12 on a full stomach and a refreshed mind. Th 4/5 si 4/4 had some problems at the flip,but glad it’s better now. To be ho 6/21, this has not been the ea 7/28 grid for me. I've finished other ones with more ea 4/4. At the on 5/10 of this grid, I new it would be hard. I ha 4/5 it when the grid is hard. I’ve been in th4/5 se4/4 for so long that my fo4/7 is asleep in my sh 4/5.Maybe I would have found the words better if I had been smokin’ some ha4/6. I'll look forever for a 4-letter word.Then it hi4/5 me and it's right in front of my face. Tried to get hubby to babble with but he is an 4/4–babble.He said, “ye 4/7 right! Maybe in my ne 4/9 life!” He sh 5/12 away from it. He will always te 5/10 me about the hours I spend babbling.He tells me in a joking to 4/4 that I should ne6/18 the house instead of babbling. I told him the house was already ne 4/4. I se 4/4 him to the store so I could babble in peace. And now it is time for me to ex 4/9 and move on 4/4 other things. *ex 5/20 quietly to go shower*

8:30 pm

8:32 pm

big break was as John Kelly in NYPD Blue

8:32 pm

hill street is on fios syndicated of course

8:33 pm

Dylan isn't really a singer as much as he is a song writer

8:33 pm

in officer and a gentleman he ws the one that the sergeant fought on the mat and then he went into the pool on the slide thing and couldn't get himself up

8:33 pm

correct, ruru

8:34 pm

8:41 pm

my mother used to say that when I was born I had a little tuft of red hair at the back of my head, which accounted for my bad temper

8:41 pm

nothing wrong with red hair.. he is just a poor actor

8:41 pm

david caruso annoys me

8:42 pm

he seems so stuck on himself

8:42 pm

he's become a cartoon version of himself on CSI: Miami but when he started out he was quite different

8:50 pm

feel free to ignore clues

8:51 pm

8:51 pm

8:52 pm

i love the hummer and the shades

8:52 pm

(he dies his hair too)

8:52 pm

You must've missed my clue - so here it is again: they are all alternate spellings (sort of), of Jamaican huts.

8:52 pm

they are good, jill, remember the song it's an old sha**** in old sh**** town?

oh, yeah. hi back to those who spoke. sorry, I'm half asleep

8:52 pm

sorry, JC, too thick to get them -- *looking again*

8:52 pm

say, ruru . . . earlier you were talking about wine . . . FYI when I was a student in Provence, my landlady would send me to the local wine distributor with a wire carrier of empty wine bottles and they'd fill them up for about 35 cents each . . . those were the days!

8:52 pm

that's my least favorite of the csi'a

8:58 pm

good luck everyone...

8:58 pm

hey guys....I'm wiped.....is the grid worth starting?

8:58 pm

take your time

8:58 pm

;Of course, Une . . . and it's a pity people are purposely breeding them and other crosses, when there are already so many wonderful, adorable, sweet dogs in desperate need of homes - the shelters are overflowing, and so many are put down. :( My present and last dogs were rescues, adopted from one . . .

8:58 pm

enjoy din din ru

8:58 pm

hi jade

8:58 pm

I'm sure the dog is lovely, though . . .

8:58 pm

hi Lilliann

8:58 pm

enjoy ruru. tc

8:58 pm

(tilts head) thanks ren ren

8:59 pm

you have a pupster jc? mine have all been rescues

8:59 pm

Probably very smart, being those two breeds.

8:59 pm

it's not too bad jade, but if you're that tired, i wouldn't start it

8:59 pm

JC, don't get me started -- I have 3 rescue dogs myself and my brother goes and buys a Weimaraner for himself and a labradoodle for his daughter . . . I presented my case but . . .

8:59 pm

Good for you, renfield - a big high-five to you!!!

8:59 pm

I see, Une . . .

8:59 pm

Good for you, too!!!

8:59 pm

I had 5 stories to do today and I JUST got home, been at work for over 13 hours today.....

9:00 pm

good grief, jade!

9:00 pm

Sorry - hello, Jade!

9:00 pm

That sounds like some of my days . . .

Hi. Une your dog may be a standard poodle cross Lab.

9:00 pm

Fortunately, I have a bit of a break for a little while. We've just opened up the farm again for the spring, summer and autumn - so working on getting settled in again.

HI and ignore me.

9:01 pm

not mine . . . my niece's . . . I thought I'd convinced her to adopt a rescue greyhound but obviously that didn't happen

9:01 pm

tell me about it! And I had NO help either, all mastered and finished by yours truly. Now, I have to make dinner for the Munchkin, and get myself ready for bed...and ugh!

9:01 pm

???

We call them labradoodle. Rescue Greyhounds are lovely but not everyones thing

9:01 pm

Hmmm, OK - I'm 'ignoring' someone because I was drinking tea for a minute? That's interesting . . .

9:01 pm

ahhhh, weimareaner. i had a long haired one of those, he was gorgeous. my friend who bred them gave me him has he would escape and kill sheep and the farmer said if he did it agin he would shoot him, and as i lived in kent and she lived in surrey, i had him

9:02 pm

hey herin

9:02 pm

*Shakes head.*

RENIIE

9:02 pm

herin, i would have been thrilled if she'd adopted ANY rescue dog

9:02 pm

howz the kit kats herin?

No JC that was Hi and Ignore that your dog may be a standard poodle x comment

9:02 pm

Really, Lilliann? I've only ever seen smooth-coated Weimaranars - didn't even know they came with long coats?

9:02 pm

wow, lilliann . . .

9:03 pm

same here, JC

9:03 pm

Oh, I see herin - sorry then!

Fur Kids are stupid but cute as usually

9:03 pm

It wasn't clear - looked like it was meant that way.

9:03 pm

((herin))

9:04 pm

I must look up a long or rough coated Weimaranar now, as I'm very curious to see one!

9:04 pm

still have 49 to go . . . may head to the list shortly

9:04 pm

yes, he is a was a rare dog jc. she used to breed him with a short haired bitch, some came out short haired and some long.

9:05 pm

i have a picture of him somewhere, i'll find it and put it on my profile

9:05 pm

Oh Jilli - I am sorry, but I forgot when I clued you on those 'sh' words to add that the 2-letter greeting was reversed! :P

9:05 pm

I assume you got it anyway?

Une pver in Aus you can get pure breed rescue dogs too. My friend has a Dogue de Bordeaux and a Malinois

9:05 pm

Yes, do that Lilliann - would love to see him!

((((lilli)))))))

9:05 pm

Yes, herin - you can anywhere. They have breed-specific rescue groups everywhere now . . .

9:05 pm

sigh. ok got 5 lessons done for my smartboard at school, guess i'll see if i can finish this one

9:06 pm

here too, herin

9:06 pm

I love springers and at springer rescues they often have purebred dogs

9:06 pm

I only adopt mixes though, simply because they are less adoptable and more in need of a home. Purebreds get snapped up much quicker . . .

All our pets be it pure breed or kitty have been rescues of some sort.

9:06 pm

me and my ex husband split up and he ended up going to live on a farm, hopefully they had no sheep!! he also use to bring down deer, but weimeraners are gun dogs

9:06 pm

and my experience with mixes is that they're healthier

9:06 pm

thats nice of u

9:07 pm

(this "one" meaning the grid, not a lesson)

9:07 pm

My last and present dogs are so wondeful, I can't imagine how they were overlooked until I came along, simply due to being mongrels . . .

I love the old Weimies

HI Feather

9:07 pm

Yes, Une - they're such complete out-crosses, that's why.

9:07 pm

hey feather!

9:07 pm

Erm - 'wonderful', that was supposed to be. :P

9:07 pm

hiya!

9:07 pm

My typing isn't bad for a five year old me, though? ;)

9:08 pm

we had a rescue bitch who looked like a fox jc, she was the bestdog we ever had. very protective of us all

9:08 pm

hi feather

9:08 pm

those long haired puppsters sure are cute!

9:08 pm

Awww, she must've been beautiful, Lilliann?

9:08 pm

Do you have any photos of her?

9:09 pm

our dog isn't exactly a rescue, but she's more of a cast-off from a friend who lived in the city and knew she'd be happier with us out in the country

hello,

9:09 pm

Hello, DeathBaby . . .

9:09 pm

Hello DeathBaby09! How are you?Welcome to the grid

9:09 pm

we are pretty sure she has border collie in her, especially when we see her run, and try to herd the turkeys that wander through!

9:10 pm

hi deathbaby

9:10 pm

what mix are your puppsters jc?

9:10 pm

i have an old one of her. it's with my weimeraner and poodle(separate pics) so when i find one i'll find them all and add them

9:10 pm

Well that's good for her, featherbee . . .

9:11 pm

and we had a rescue border collie at one time

9:11 pm

yep, she's a happy girl out here. and still gets to see her city-mommy at times as well.

9:11 pm

I only have one, renfield - I had one before her, too. She is a Whippet cross, and the shelter only knew her mother was about 3/4 Whippet. Her father is unknown - I suspect she may have some poodle and possibly Manchester Terrier in her.

9:11 pm

Im sorry but i cant belive u guys pay money to a website!

9:11 pm

hi death baby

9:11 pm

She is small, smooth-coated and solid black, except for a tiny white streak on her chest.

9:11 pm

abba, you don't have to pay.

9:11 pm

hi everyone!

9:12 pm

dawg!

9:12 pm

Well, Abba Dabba, we support the efforts of the person providing this - and help offset his costs in providing it .

9:12 pm

hey dawg

err I pay because i like to play and its one off

9:12 pm

You aren't required to pay, but you have access to more if you do.

9:12 pm

Feather! i was thinking about you and blinking! lol

9:12 pm

we got peggy(fox like one) from battersea aswell jc

9:12 pm

most of us pay for the tile stats and word stats, and after the first two weeks, you don't get to see those anymore

9:12 pm

RENNIE!!!

9:12 pm

i pay because i'm not cheap

9:12 pm

And for pity's sake - $14 US is a tiny amount, expecially as it's a one-time fee!

9:12 pm

hi lbd

9:13 pm

Hi Lilliann!

9:13 pm

And that too, renfield . . . ;)

9:13 pm

lol dawg! i've been good lately, taking a mini break from my rocking nights!

9:13 pm

dawger!

*Ren may be easy but shes not cheap*

9:13 pm

Hello, dawger! :)

9:13 pm

i paid, cuz i appreciate all the work DR.G put into this game, and for the companionship

9:14 pm

I still dont get it if you have to pay and you only get it for about 2 weeks

9:14 pm

JADE!!! where's munchkin?

9:14 pm

that be right herin!

9:14 pm

HAHAHA - I'll say nothing to that, herin! ;) Speaking - or not speaking for myself, of course. :P

9:14 pm

HI JC!

9:14 pm

she'a watching tv for once..

9:14 pm

no, no, you get the tile stats and word stats for free the first two weeks. if you decide to not pay, you can still play, you just don't get to see that information, which is very helpful.

9:14 pm

abba dabba dooby - what 2 weeks?

9:14 pm

No, Abba - you only get the tile and word stats for two weeks if you do NOT pay! You get them permanently, if you do pay.

9:15 pm

you. easy jc?!?!

9:15 pm

*Shakes head again!*

I really need to I don't know do the H word

9:15 pm

Fiery words

9:17 pm

9:18 pm

9:21 pm

Oh dear, Lilliann - sorry to hear that!

Years ago a radio commercial in the French-Canadian province of Quebec advertised a laundry service with a heavy accent -- "Are you tired of that montonous pile of laundry..."?

9:22 pm

hi all

9:33 pm

15

9:34 pm

Read it, Frances - and please don't worry if you don't get a reply from me promptly, at any time. The only reason you have so far, is we've e-mailed while we're both on here, mostly. And I've been home more - which soon again, I won't be very much.

9:34 pm

No problem J.C.

9:34 pm

I also get swamped with e-mails on a daily basis . . .

9:35 pm

I can imagine.

9:35 pm

hi all -- back for the last 45

9:35 pm

Do you use any chat messengers, Frances?

9:35 pm

Like AIM?

9:35 pm

7, now going back for the sticky ones

9:35 pm

an7 please?

9:35 pm

IM and skype

9:36 pm

HAHAHA - an7 is something I am very definitely NOT! :P

9:36 pm

(Couldn't be more opposite, HAHAHA!)

9:36 pm

It means to be against the pleasures of the flesh . . . I suppose?

9:36 pm

lmao, got it jc!

9:36 pm

AN7 - against procreating

9:36 pm

What is 'IM', Frances - do you mean 'AIM'?

9:36 pm

lol jc -- just found it and was thinking the same thing!

9:36 pm

Surprised you know the meaning of the word J.C.

9:37 pm

HAHAHA, featherbee - glad my clue helped!

9:37 pm

:D

9:37 pm

Yes, Frances - tell me about it! ;) HAHAHA . . .

9:37 pm

Instant messenger

9:37 pm

Frances knows altogether too much about me . . .

9:37 pm

9:37 pm

9:37 pm

Yes, but which instant messenger, Frances? I do not use Skype - I use AIM and Google Talk.

KJE you can have the black one annoying little pest. The news is when my friend passed away his retirement money was meant to go to his sisters. I organised it *long story short I accidently opened his mail*. I thought they didn't care about him as there was no stone on the grave. Turns out they are using that money plus extra to spend about $3000 on a tombstone.

10:08 pm

I just feel like a heavy weight has been lifted. They care but they are just saving money for something really special for him. Then As i was talking about him I saw a shooting star so it was very cool

10:09 pm

Jade depends on the issue

10:09 pm

depends on the dentist ...unless you mean tooth fairy

10:09 pm

very cool herin - glad you feel better

I do feel better

10:10 pm

glad you are feeling better about it herin

10:10 pm

i wouldn't want that much spent on my tombs stone, i'm not going to see it, i'd prefer it to go to charity, but it's nice that they have thought of him

10:10 pm

ahhh, at least you know what she's up to, it's not really new territory for you , Lil

10:21 pm

I have been lucky--my son and I have gotten along pretty well since his dad died--I feel for the woman he marries since he is close to me

10:23 pm

no lbd, thats the problem...hope she's not too much like me...saying that, my dad was a policeman so i never did anything bad and i did mostly what my parents told me to do, apart from smoking

10:23 pm

i always said i would never be like my mam was with me, but it must be in the genes as i am exactly the same, even tho i'm trying not to be

10:23 pm

hi babble friends...

10:24 pm

up to, in the sense of why she's acting the way she does, not actually what she's up to. did that make sense?

10:24 pm

I need the X in order to have NBT

10:24 pm

Hi Lady!

10:25 pm

Hello LadyNatts! How are you? Welcome to the grid!

10:25 pm

10:25 pm

thanks jmcn

10:25 pm

lol now I got it too

10:25 pm

hi minver and thank you

10:25 pm

I don't think we can distance ourselves from being like our mothers. Hopefully we will show the good things about our mothers to our children and they in turn will exhibit those traits as well.

10:25 pm

TY lady !

10:25 pm

hi lilliann

10:26 pm

:) you started it, jmcn!

10:26 pm

but you are welcome

10:26 pm

I hate the fact that I'm like my mother

10:27 pm

I resisted for sooooo long

10:27 pm

IS anyone working the gird?

10:27 pm

his dad died just short of his 8th birthday so a long time ago. and I am fairly sure I am not clinging to him--I talked for a while about suffering from not enough empty ne4 syndrome

10:27 pm

I am working it a tad lady

10:27 pm

oops Jade

10:27 pm

I am...was, jade

10:28 pm

I am going to have to open the clues for the last 45

10:28 pm

10:29 pm

I think that you being concerned about being "clingy" shows that you probably aren't, jmc

10:29 pm

I trust you are right lbd

10:29 pm

the thing is lbd i seem to be showing my mam's bad traits, which is why i said i would never be like that with my child.....i never got on with my mam all the years i was growing up so was adamant that i ws goignt o do things differently with mine, but it doesn't seem to be working out that way...she is a daddy's girl, just like i was but my husband has a better relationship with her than me, he is great with any child at any age

10:30 pm

girls tend to be close to their dads during their teens

10:31 pm

I was very close to my dad. closer than my sister was; closer than my brother was.

10:31 pm

just be patient, Lilliann. hormones and all that will subside and she too will realize that you're doing the best you can.

10:31 pm

I am so glad my son is living in the dorm this semester I don't even care how much it costs

10:31 pm

oh geez... why am I jumping into the conversation, uninvited. :(

10:31 pm

10:34 pm

i have an older brother who i haven't spoken with in over 30 years

10:34 pm

bye all

10:34 pm

I agree, lillian. however in our family my sister got my mom's favouritism, I got my dad's

10:34 pm

sweet dreams, JMC

10:34 pm

it's good that you have a great relationship with your son jmc

10:35 pm

nite jmc, take care

10:35 pm

I'm my Daddy's girl too. although he tries really hard not to favor me. but we talk more than he does to my sisters

10:35 pm

ahh, sorry to hear that lbd

10:35 pm

et4-4 the 2nd one please. Thanks

10:35 pm

indeed I am lucky (and he is older ;-)

10:35 pm

my brother got in trouble... a lot

10:35 pm

no regrets, Lilliann. his choice as well as mine.

10:36 pm

too high of expectations ...

10:36 pm

Sicilian volcano, Gapeach.

10:36 pm

Hi all. Lil, what are you doing up at this hour? You're as bad as me!

10:36 pm

Oh, thank you, Jacula.

10:36 pm

hi Jac

10:37 pm

hi jac, long time no see, and yes i am...lol

10:37 pm

with your family lady?

10:37 pm

meaning your brother

10:38 pm

yes... I think my mother expected too much of him... he was the eldest and the only boy

10:38 pm

y/w Gapeach.

10:38 pm

how can anyone be an7???

10:38 pm

Lil - how're things? Has your hubby found work?

10:38 pm

Since Jacula is here to clue now, I'm bowing out. Bye!

10:38 pm

monks or nuns?

10:39 pm

Goodnight to my fellow babblers!I'll see you tomorrow

10:39 pm

Lady - LOL. I think they can, expecially just after childbirth.

10:39 pm

they're not, not really, they just take vows.

10:39 pm

i use to be very close to my brother lbd but because of one thing and another we have grown apart and to be honest it's got to the point where i'm not bothered and i know that sounds bad and i still love him but i can't be bothered with him anymore because of his attitude towards things

10:39 pm

Min - that's very presumptuous of you! LOL

10:39 pm

lol jac... well, I suppose, for just a little while

10:39 pm

night Min, see you tomorrow

10:40 pm

lilliann, my brother turned into quite the hermit. but if there was anyone he would talk to, it would be me.

10:40 pm

Lilliann, i know what you mean. sometimes the distance in time and space really is the best.

10:40 pm

and he did. eventually.

10:40 pm

ne5-12 please. Thanks

10:40 pm

ok, all....tooth fairy duties are done...time for bed. *smooches everyone*

10:40 pm

If you are not staying long, I can stay for a little bit longer, but I am tired. Does anybody need any clues?

10:40 pm

20000 leagues bene*** the sea

10:41 pm

not yet jac, but he doesn't want to drive anymore if he can help it, plus he helps to look after me more now and he is doing his nvq2 in childcare and helps out at our daughter's school

10:41 pm

Gapeach - short word for 'under'.

10:41 pm

he got very ill. he had to be transported home. he lives with mom now (and she complains about him constantly)

10:41 pm

kiss kiss, Jade sweet dreams

10:41 pm

ne 5/12: I got lots of junk under***** my bed gapeach

10:41 pm

peach ne5/12 usually has under before it.

10:41 pm

Lil, he should claim a Carer's Allowance for that.

10:41 pm

Thanks, y'all.

10:42 pm

yw

10:42 pm

ahh, sorry to hear that lady

10:42 pm

Hi Frances, another sleepless in UK.

10:42 pm

Lady, I hope he and your mom come to terms with each other.

10:42 pm

I see three other people clued for gapeach so I'm out

10:42 pm

*POOF*

10:42 pm

'Night Min.

10:42 pm

he was told to when he signed on jac and has just recieved it

10:42 pm

Yes Jac. How are you?

10:43 pm

nite min

10:43 pm

Having night sweats on the hour, as normal, Frances. And yourself?

10:43 pm

*poof*

10:44 pm

oh, we have terms, lbd. I love her, but I don't always like her. She calls me whenever she needs a picture hung or a shelf put together... (she lives less than 2 blocks away)

10:44 pm

nite jade

10:44 pm

I'm having a hard time focusing...time for bed. been great visiting with everyone. see you tomorrow

10:44 pm

i'm back work didnt need me

10:44 pm

Jac, have you tried estroven? otc for menopause.

10:44 pm

Lil - that's good. I can understand him not wanting to be on the road any more, although my Other Half still misses it a bit, now office-based. Not so much your own boss when off the road, you see.

10:44 pm

lbd - I don't want to go on HRT.

10:45 pm

Oh poor you Jac. Fortunately I never had that problem. I'm just one of those infuriating people who needs about three hours sleep a night.

10:45 pm

it's not hrt, jac. herbals.

10:45 pm

Another Maggie Thatcher, eh, Frances?

10:45 pm

i'm like that with my mam, lady, i love her but don't always like her, even now, probably because of the way she treats my dad...which was the way she usd to treat me but now i'm not there anymore to take it out on, so my poor dad gets it

10:46 pm

Oh right, lbd. I've tried several herbal things. Menosan worked for 3 months but then stopped working.

10:46 pm

I guess it sounds like it Jac.

10:46 pm

nite lbd, take care

10:46 pm

really going now. *poof

10:46 pm

wb db

10:46 pm

'Night lbd.

10:47 pm

how is everyone

10:47 pm

*ducks as she types this because so many people hate MT* She's a woman I really admire.

10:47 pm

Goodnight lbd

10:47 pm

92 left

10:47 pm

ugg

10:47 pm

yes, well.. my poor brother gets it now... I think it's Karma (he left very young and didn't keep in touch... now he's dependent on her)

10:47 pm

Whhops! PB for me. I said ha4.

10:47 pm

Me too Jac. No eggs coming your way from me.

10:48 pm

Glad to hear that, Frances. I like Burford Brown free-range eggs, btw.:-)

10:48 pm

Finally finished....thanks to everyones help. Think I'll watch some TV and wait for the flip. Thanks again.

10:48 pm

i use to be like that jac...only taken me 4 years to get over it!! i still get slight hot flushes but mowt like i use to. i use to have a fan right by my side of the bed going full pelt every night...use to drive hubby up the wall as he'd be cold...lol

10:48 pm

Well done, Gapeach.

10:49 pm

ye3 ga peachie

10:49 pm

bye peach

10:49 pm

Lil - we have a clip-on shelf fan each on the shelf abov our bed. Since he had his hernia op., Other Half has been having night sweats, too. LOL

10:50 pm

Oh Jac what a pair. For heavens sake don't have satin sheets then.

10:50 pm

that's good jac, atleast you're the same

10:50 pm

I also keep a cold, wet flannel folded into a small oblong beside my bed. It helps a lot if you slap it on your forehead or neck when the sweat strikes.

10:51 pm

Satin sheets sound so sexy but they aren't - you slide out of bed every time you move, or the covers slide off, plus they can become full of static.

10:51 pm

I cannot begin to imagine how uncomfortable that must make you.

10:52 pm

i tried hrt when i first had my hysterectomy(i know i've spelt it wrong...lol)but i got really bad headaches so i stopped them, then i tried dofferent herbal tablets and then i changed my diet which helped the most and now i just seem to be getting over it

10:53 pm

how about icy pops mistress?

10:53 pm

Soya milk helps, Lil, as does nettle tea.

10:53 pm

satin sheets probably don't help people who get hot flushes, i know when i wore something satiny, it made me hotter

10:54 pm

I don't want frostbite, Ren! (Hello, btw.)

10:54 pm

hello everyone have been reading the chat and commiserating

10:54 pm

yes, i use to drink soya milk, can't stand the stuff but it did help, since i'm not so bad, i've gone back to semi skimmed milk

10:54 pm

Lil - you didn't spell it wrong.

10:55 pm

nettles... so full of good properties... but damn, I hated when I brushed against them as a child!

10:55 pm

Hi ren and west.

10:55 pm

i stopped having all dairy things and that helped with the hot flushes

10:55 pm

hi west

10:55 pm

hi frances

10:55 pm

oh dear... that's all coming for me... and I cannot go a day without cheese.

10:55 pm

hi lilli

10:56 pm

Lil - the 'alpro' chocolate and the strawberry flavour milks are nice.

10:56 pm

i use to have the alpro soya(plain but had to add drinking chocolate to it

10:56 pm

Ladynatts - coffee and alcohol are bad for hot flushes, too.

10:57 pm

i didn't think i could lady but i did..occasionally i add a treat but then i'd get a hot flush...lol

10:57 pm

well... I don't drink much coffee....

10:57 pm

i don't drink coffe, but yes alcohol definitely

10:58 pm

hmmm... I'm planning ahead, here

10:58 pm

i didn't think i had spelt it wrong jac, but then i did...tired!!

10:58 pm

I just got Other Half's father to give me a copy of the good/bad food list for cholesterol. Other half found everything he loves is on the banned list. He's going to ha4 me when I put his new diet regime into practice.

10:58 pm

my spelling is crap as normal

10:58 pm

and ... hubby quit smoking a week ago... it's now my turn, but I don't know if I am ready.

10:58 pm

lady, you can't stop unless you are ready

10:59 pm

best thing is to give your self a date and work upto it

10:59 pm

me and hubby did that 5 years ago

10:59 pm

well... I am getting ready...trying to. more the habit than the addiction, really

10:59 pm

Lady - Other Half said to me that before I start him on the diet for lowering cholesterol, we should quit the cancer sticks. I know he's right, and he's quit before, but I never have. I feel the same as you, though I know I'd be better to stop.

11:00 pm

LadyN, you can do it. *sending LOTS of support* you will feel so much better!

11:00 pm

Habit here, too, Lady.

11:00 pm

cigs are the same a heroin

11:00 pm

hello all. does anyone need help?

11:00 pm

Hello stid

11:00 pm

hardest addiction to get rid of

11:00 pm

Hi stid. I'm just here to chat and clue.

11:00 pm

actually hubby did on his birthday and i was going to stop when i had my hysterectomy but then they changed the date and we didn't know when, so i just gave up 2 days after hubby and never looked back

11:00 pm

oh, then I am not needed, but will stay a little to chat.

11:00 pm

I am aiming for a) March 25 (what would be my dad's 84th birthday if he were still alive) .. or April 1.

11:00 pm

this may we are officially no smokers

11:00 pm

lol can you spell 89 words for me

11:00 pm

hi stid

11:01 pm

good for you lilliann!

11:01 pm

sankitties - Yes, as The Beatles once sang, 'Damn Sir Walter Raleigh, he was such a stupid git!'

11:01 pm

lol

11:01 pm

He also brought potatoes to us and therefore fattening chips. LOL

11:02 pm

I used to smoke many years ago. One Christmas my father was very ill in hospital. We thought he was dying and I thought, what do you get a dying man for Christmas. I asked what he wanted and he said for me to stop smoking. All the insentive I needed. Haven't had one since.

11:03 pm

good for you frances

11:03 pm

and your dad is okay?

11:03 pm

good for you frances

11:03 pm

all you have to do to get incentive is watch one open heart surgery

11:03 pm

i thought i would really miss it, but truth is, hubby and i don't...it is just a habit

11:04 pm

oh geez... I just realized. today is the anniversary of my dad's death... I mean, I knew it all week, but I didn't think of it today until now.

11:04 pm

We'll have to start a Babbler's support group for quitters of the cancer sticks.

11:04 pm

UNfortunately my father died nearly thirty years ago. I said it was many years ago.

11:05 pm

Frances, I feel guilty because my children have asked me to quit many times and I still haven't.

11:05 pm

I can truthfully say that I have not missed it one bit.

11:05 pm

i look back now and don't know why i ever did smoke as i didn't really enjoy it....this game is more addictive and better for you....mmmm, or not...lol...not for our sanity anyway!!! lol

11:05 pm

((((oh LadyN!))))

11:05 pm

i support all those who are giving up the smoke

11:05 pm

I must be very selfish.

11:05 pm

sorry, Frances, I missed that.

11:05 pm

Or weak-willed.

11:05 pm

thank you, stid!

11:06 pm

But I know I am not weak-willed, except about certain things. Dieting is no problem.

11:06 pm

he was the one who influenced me more than anyone else

11:06 pm

i always said i would give up when i was pregnant but never did, although i did cut down and when i had pre eclampsia and was worried and stuck in hospital i smoked more...go figure!

11:06 pm

If you have the right reason to stop it is the easiest thing to do.

11:06 pm

and when he died, I was devastated.

11:06 pm

Keeping the home going as a one-parent family for over a decade was not.

11:07 pm

so... that's why I picked his birthday to quit. He quit smoking (after 50 years of smoking)... o

11:07 pm

Same as my father Lady which I suppose is why he wanted me to stop.

11:08 pm

jacula, you are not selfish...you can't give up anything, whether it be smoking, food or whatever, unless you are ready to give it up

11:08 pm

I guess my reason to give up might be to make my Beloved follow a diet to avoid the heart disease that is rife in his family. If we have to quite smoking before he agrees to follow that diet...

11:09 pm

Isn't that called give and take Jac?

11:09 pm

I should do it for ME really, and drink less booze.

11:09 pm

me too, jacula

11:09 pm

The over-smoking and over-drinking just crept up over the decade after my divorce. I was always pretty controlled before that.

11:10 pm

is there really 154 words in this darn puzzle,lol

11:10 pm

your divorce was when, jacula?

11:10 pm

you guys do this with a dictionary right

11:10 pm

you still have to be ready to give up jac. your hubbys health is a great reason, but if you are not ready then you won't do it, or you might for a few days but you'll just go back to it. will power is great but you have to be rteady in yourself to give up or you won't do it

11:10 pm

I have 18 left, sanskit, so there must be

11:10 pm

There are sanskitties (what happened to your kitties, btw?) and they are mostly fun words.

11:10 pm

Jac those two litre bottles of cheap cider and lager are no good for you. Give them up!

11:11 pm

Lady - not sure. About 15 years ago now.

11:11 pm

I think I have a funny giving-up-smoking story. I was a real chain smoker (hubby had quit) and my grandkids began to bug me about it. So did my son, and then they moved from Montreal (where we were) to BC. Air Canada made a no-smoking rule on their planes. I decided I couldn't stand 5 hours on a plane without a ciggie, so went the Nicorettes route, plus some plastic fake cigs which dragged like the real thing (Paipo, a Japanese invention). And off we went to visit the family in BC, only to find son had taken up smoking again. Never mind -- I stayed abstinent.

11:11 pm

Frances - I wouldn't dream of drinking those.

11:11 pm

I need to give that up, badly . . .

11:12 pm

lol jilli! great story! .. and hello :D

11:12 pm

LOL, jilli.

11:12 pm

Good for you though.

11:12 pm

lmao

11:12 pm

very funny story

11:13 pm

good for you jilli

11:13 pm

I've had this cigarette in my mouth for at least the last 15 minutes... but haven't lit it

11:13 pm

maybe there's hope for me

11:15 pm

Lady - you can actually almost get the kick from the first drag on the fag if you suck on it but don't light it. I found a good thing you sniff called 'Logado' years ago. It's great for giving you that 'hit' in places where you can't smoke. The plastic cigarettes are also quite good.

11:15 pm

I'm so glad to be rid of those stinking overflowing ashtrays.....

11:15 pm

i tried the plasic cigarettes we get here, they are bloody horrible. i took one puff and it made my throat sore so didn't bother, and me and hubby bought the nicotine chewing gum and had one piece. i just used to buy normal gum and peppermints, much cheaper and better tasting....

11:16 pm

Nicotine patches are a bit of a problem - you have one on but you still want to smoke. You do smoke and your heart rate goes up like mad.

11:16 pm

i'm glad my clothes don't smell of it anymore

11:16 pm

you might try the patch, my hubby did it NOT the way they recomend, but it worked, he did the big dose fore 3 weeks, then the next for 4 weeks, and on an on until he cut a 7 mg patch (smallest) in half for another 6 weeks, then finally nothing. IT wiorked, he smoked for 40 yrs some cannadian brand, he was smoke free finally

11:16 pm

jilli - you slut! You should have emptied and washed them more often. LOL

11:16 pm

oh yes, after I quit the Nicorettes, I chewed gum for several years. Used to get Ordermarks at school for even thinking about chewing gum. None of that now!

11:17 pm

we actually both used the patch when we flew to Malaysia last summer (12 hours). I was planning to quit then, but hubby brought cartons of cigs.

11:17 pm

we spent a fortune on all the smoking things to give up and either hardly used them or didn't use tham at all. we wasted alot of money

11:17 pm

the patch didn't exist when Igave up

11:18 pm

some can do it cold turkey others something else

11:18 pm

jac -- what a sweet little girl you were!

11:18 pm

we never bothered witht he patches, they were very expensive

11:18 pm

People with the habit rather than the nicotine addiction can survive by 'smoking' pencils, pens etc.

11:19 pm

Jilli - thank you.

11:19 pm

sanskitties, you need your flag -- want to know how to get it?

11:19 pm

yes, how

11:20 pm

hi all...here to try and finish before flip...

11:20 pm

I don't know how strong my nicotine addiction is. I'm not a smoker who wakes in the night to top it up. I thinks it's the hand to mouth thing for me, hence the tendency to booze too much, too.

11:20 pm

Hi Pink.

11:20 pm

sans -- go to your My Account, upto the right-hand corner, click on the little square which says Show Profile

11:20 pm

I'm with you, Jac

11:20 pm

i think i was like that jac, which is why i took up hobbies using my hands

11:21 pm

which is why my latest addiction is suiting me well (see profile)

11:21 pm

Some smokers, a few years ago, would suck babies' dummies (soothers) to help them to give up. Don't think I'll go down that route though.

11:21 pm

jac, there was a great TV show years ago which gave you a quiz to see WHY you smoked. My reason was oral gratification, hence the success of the fake cigs.

11:21 pm

Lil - nearly all of my hobbies involve using my hands.

11:21 pm

ok I clicked on it

11:21 pm

oh wow lady...they are cute

11:22 pm

thanks

11:22 pm

and nos, sans, you have your flag!

11:22 pm

thanks lilliann :)

11:22 pm

*now

11:22 pm

No kitties?

11:23 pm

i must admit i use to sew when i smoked and i would just stop sewing and have a cigarette

11:23 pm

Mrrrreow?

11:23 pm

nice talking with you, im running out of juice, low battery, and my bedtime. Thanks again hope to talk to you tomorrow

11:23 pm

so, do you smoke alot jc?

11:23 pm

I wish I didn't smoke - I need to quit that.

11:23 pm

jilli - I think that's my reason, too. With the plastic fag (long since lost its tube of whatever the 'kick' stuff was) and my trusty 'Logado' sniff panel (no longer available but lasts for years, not months, like the packet alludes) I may be able to do it.

11:23 pm

nighty night sans -- prrrr

11:23 pm

nite sans. tace care

11:23 pm

Not heavily, Lilliann - but any regular smoking is bad.

11:24 pm

the Paipos I used were a very pleasant light menthol

11:24 pm

And I think I'm feeling the effects of it, after all these years . . . I'm sure quitting would make a big difference!

11:24 pm

very true jc, but you'll give up when you are ready

11:25 pm

Anyone ever tried those disgusting herbal cigarettes they used to sell in chemist shops?

11:25 pm

Here none of my friends smoke any more. All used to.

11:25 pm

oh! I did, Jacula!

11:25 pm

diving in for my last 13..

11:25 pm

even my kids told me to go back to regular cigarettes, the smell was so bad!

11:25 pm

gogogo lil!

11:25 pm

And, Lil, do you remember those cigarettes the Government issued in the 80s when they were doing the stop smoking drive>

11:26 pm

yes jac, they smell like bonfires or wacky backy as someone said to me...never had the stuff so wouldn't know

11:26 pm

plus they were bloody horrible

11:26 pm

I have a huge pile of unused ashtrays in a cupboard.

11:26 pm

jill send them to me i need them

11:27 pm

Whacky baccy smells like burning rope. The government issue cigs were not so good. I don't smoke whacky baccy as it gives me a thumping headache.

11:27 pm

don't think so jac, nothing comoing to mind...only those herbal ones

11:27 pm

jilli - you can use them as plant pot stands.

11:27 pm

*coming

11:27 pm

Jilli - what's today's icon theme?

11:28 pm

what a bore it was at cocktail parties, trying to hold a drink in one hand, and a plate in the other as well as a cigarette, and help oneself to few little hors d'oeuvres

11:28 pm

I can't be anywhere near people who smoke... the chemicals make me so ill.

11:28 pm

hello again, I wandered off to prune the new icon.

11:28 pm

lol why dont yall just call it pot or weed its the same thing

11:28 pm

Last year my daughter in law started 'smoking' an electronic ciggarette.

11:28 pm

hi stid...

11:29 pm

hey pini!!! is that a baby pic?

11:29 pm

electronic??

11:29 pm

hi pini

11:29 pm

nope, still a mermaid...

11:29 pm

where???

11:29 pm

frances those dont work i've tried them

11:29 pm

did it work frances?

11:29 pm

Next icon theme is for Sundays -- Babble Blessings: Share A Piece Of Good News / Something You Are Grateful For (mrpresident)

11:29 pm

she didn't send me a pic yet :(

11:29 pm

Hi, stidmama! :)

11:30 pm

Yes it glows at the end and emits something like steam and has a nicotine capsul inside.

11:30 pm

And Pinikula! :)

11:30 pm

hi jc

11:30 pm

Love the photo of the two of you - very nice! :)

11:30 pm

that's the theme for every Sunday btw, JC!

11:30 pm

I know, stid. I was also reading a discussion on this chog a couple of weeks ago where people who can't stand others wearing perfume, deodorant etc., were saying how it all makes them gag or whatever. I went in the other room to Other Half and told him, 'No point in going to a Babble meet! We smoke, wear perfume and deodorant and would be persona non grata.'

11:30 pm

Hmmm . . . what photo would I post for that? One of Mike, of course! ;)

11:30 pm

She is now back on the real things.

11:30 pm

interesting, frances

11:30 pm

because i couldn't remember what it was called db, apart from whacky backy...lol

11:30 pm

Or one of us together . . .

11:31 pm

Lol Jac.

11:31 pm

Sunday theme is rather boring these days.

11:31 pm

Ooh, whacky baccy, yes - I *used* to do that! :P

11:31 pm

I make sure I don't go to people's houses until I know them, Jac. Even being in large public spaces can cause my skin to burn if someone who uses certain fabric softeners comes within ten feet.

11:31 pm

No surprise there then J.C.

11:32 pm

i was going to ask if it worked frances, but just seen that it obviously doesn't!

11:32 pm

rofl at Frances' reply to JC

11:32 pm

For a minute stid I thought you had the Cuban flag up there.

11:32 pm

That must be very hard for you, Stid. I'm glad I'm not allergic to much other than cats.

11:32 pm

And I have a cat. LOL.

11:32 pm

hm. never been to Cuba of course, but decided to be in a sunny place this past week! LOL

11:33 pm

I'll have to get him paid mousing work to pay for the extra tissues I use to blow my no4.

11:33 pm

yes, jac -- it's inconvenient and embarassing. and frustrating because the allergies are increasing in number and severity. I highly recommend NOT being allergic!

11:33 pm

Well the only allery I have is to rubber. I say no more.

11:34 pm

is there nothing you can take or use to help stid?

11:34 pm

How about this, for an icon (refresh, please) - she is some/thing/one I'm grateful for! :)

11:34 pm

I'm allergic to bran and wholemeal bread, too. Gives me the runs.

11:34 pm

mmmmm, i won't go there francis...lol

11:34 pm

Nice dog, jc

11:34 pm

I'm pretty tolerant of scents, but LOATHE patchouli. Unfortunately this island had a large population of the kind of people who love the stuff and come into the library to use the free computers. Gaaaa.

11:35 pm

Thank you, Jacula . . .

11:35 pm

Ah the beautiful Valerie.

11:35 pm

i'm allergic to flax

11:35 pm

that's unusual, ren!

11:35 pm

*mental note to note put patchouli in my dreds next time I see jill*

11:35 pm

Aww, JC, your sweet dog. But please change your text -- that's not you at age 5!

11:35 pm

valerie is lovely, but she's very shy isn'r she jc?

11:36 pm

ugh, stid!!!

11:36 pm

jilli - I used to wear patchouli to work back in the 80s, after it was all the rage in the 60s and 70s, and the older woman at work (who was 50 to our late teens and early 20s) would sniff the air and say, 'I can smell hippies!'.

11:36 pm

puppy looks worried, JC! as in "what is he up to now???"

11:36 pm

Oh gee - thank you again, Frances! :P I'm glad you weren't here for the comment she made to me earlier, stidmama - HAHAHA! :P

11:36 pm

Frances knows me all too well already - seems to be nothing about me that surprises her! ;)

11:36 pm

Erm, probably stidmama - life with me is never dull! :P

11:36 pm

patchouli? jilli

11:37 pm

patchouli, I understand, was supposed to neutralize the smell of pot...

11:37 pm

Oh, LIl. You must remember that!

11:37 pm

Absolutely nothing J.C.

11:37 pm

I think people who smoke "substances" think patchouli covers it up...

11:37 pm

or what Erda said!

11:37 pm

I HATE PATCHOULI OIL!!!

11:37 pm

(sorry for yelling)

11:37 pm

(but it really doesn't)

11:37 pm

When we lived in Montreal and son and d-i-l in BC, she wore the stuff, and the mail we got from them stank of it, all the way across North America!

11:37 pm

what does it smell like?

11:38 pm

same thing, stidmama!!

11:38 pm

Patchouli oil. Flower power and all that.

11:38 pm

Well I love the smell of patchouli.

11:38 pm

(one of my co-workers bathes in it...and we can always smell her coming or know she's been there)

11:38 pm

my monte blanc femme individuelle reminds me of patchouli

11:38 pm

cough cough cough cough

11:38 pm

LOL jilli

11:38 pm

lil, it's indescribably horrible

11:38 pm

i'm not sure jac, doesn't come to mind, but my memory had gone east the last few years

11:38 pm

sorry jac...no offense intended

11:39 pm

I actually don't mind patchouli... in moderation. but I don't like it so thick I can't breathe.

11:39 pm

jac, in that case, I'm glad we are just virtual friends!

11:39 pm

Yes stid it can clog up the airways.

11:39 pm

musty, mossy, orangey, amber smell, The plant is a Carribbean mint.

11:39 pm

in fact, it's just gone, which is why it take me ages to finish these blooming grids, because when people say it's the goose, or the bird or the volcano(normally remember that one0 I CAN'T GET THEM

11:40 pm

I think that's why I now dislike it so much, stid...my only exposure now is way too much...

11:40 pm

oops, didn't mean to shout

11:40 pm

and my hair fluffer stuff also ahs the same mystical patchouli scent

11:40 pm

LOL, Lil.

11:41 pm

which one are you trying to find now lilliann??? *ready to help*

11:41 pm

Ren - my Carribbean body spray I put on today smells same.

11:41 pm

12 more

11:41 pm

i shoud shut up now and try and find them

11:41 pm

go lilliann!!

11:42 pm

I don't think I know patchouli smell...

11:42 pm

Don't get me wrong...it's just difficult to tollerate when the smell precedes the person wearing it (she does it to "mask her smoking")...suffice it to say, it doesn't work

11:42 pm

we are a powerful force mistress

11:42 pm

I think patchouli clicks with your inner sexual being, or not.

11:43 pm

I totally agree, Pinikula - can't stand when people wear too much perfume or cologne, so it knocks you over! :P

11:43 pm

We are indeed, Ren. We can attract and repel at will. *grins*

11:43 pm

"inner sexual being?" oh dear... I think I lost mine years ago!

11:43 pm

we had an hr manager who wore "red" and it reminded me of a scented used tampon

11:43 pm

parenting, you know...

11:43 pm

stid! Don't say that. You're much younger than me.

11:43 pm

<-- Says nothing, for fear of incriminating self. :P

11:43 pm

goose = nene, sea bird = erne, erns, tern, ternes, volcano = et** (it's here), Celebes buffalo = anoa, hairy-nosed dolphin = inia, Himalayan goat = tahr, 2-toed sloth = unau, unai, freshwater turtle = emyd(e)...

11:43 pm

LOL ren

11:44 pm

Ren - oh yuck! Kinda fishy metallic smell?

11:44 pm

wow jill! you remember them all!!!!!!

11:44 pm

O

11:44 pm

Covered just about all of them there jilli.

11:45 pm

Wow, Jilli - I'm very impressed! You must be a wicked Scrabble player?!

11:45 pm

you are fantastic jilli

11:45 pm

stid, I have them all written down!

11:45 pm

"wicked" describes Jill beautifully, JC! rofl

11:45 pm

I'm trying to ignore the conversation... but I've done got fireworks, and I have no choice, unless I leave...!

11:45 pm

Congrats, LadyNatts! :)

11:45 pm

Say . . . that rhymes!

11:45 pm

YAY natts!!!

11:45 pm

Well done Lady.

11:45 pm

YAY LadyN!!!!!! *serves ice cream*

11:45 pm

Awww, surely not, stidmama? ;)

11:45 pm

thank you

11:46 pm

You're a poet....and you know it.

11:46 pm

Or are you referring to her Scrabble-playing?

11:46 pm

I am . . . indeed, ma'am! ;)

11:46 pm

depends how you read wicked

11:46 pm

*big stage wink* wicked...

11:46 pm

HAHAHA . . .

11:47 pm

Sorry about the convo, Lady but it must be true, if you grossed out on it.

11:47 pm

I'm getting clobbered at Lexulous

11:47 pm

Beatiful photo of you, stidmama - you look radiant! :)

11:47 pm

Gorgeous smile . . .

11:47 pm

I can't hear you, jac.. ;)

11:47 pm

Sexual beings have a strong sense of smell. LOL. *winks at Ren*

11:48 pm

thanks JC, I loved spending yesterday afternoon with pinikula!

11:48 pm

Grossed out? On what, Jacula?

11:48 pm

*) mistress

11:48 pm

Take your fingers out of your ears, Lady! I'm off for a bathroom visit. BRB.

11:48 pm

Yes, I'm sure you did! :)

11:48 pm

<-- is terribly confused.

11:49 pm

don't worry about it, J.C.

11:49 pm

That explains why I can't stand anyone wearing too much perfume, Jacula - referring to your 'sense of smell' comment! ;)

11:49 pm

je suis tres confusee... but that's normal...

11:49 pm

Oh I don't, LadyNatts - I'm perpetually confused, so if I worried about it, I'd be perpetually worried, too. And I can't be having that . . .

11:49 pm

Rennie -- what happened to Mezzie? So glad he's ok now -- indeed something to be thankful for

11:49 pm

hello again fireworks for me

11:50 pm

Moi aussi, stidmama - moi aussi, toujours! :P

11:50 pm

Congrats, westford!!! :)

11:50 pm

Well done west

11:50 pm

Well done wEST.

11:50 pm

hi west!!! WHOOPEE for you!

11:50 pm

thank you JC and Fran and jilli

11:50 pm

I work with people who go on and on about various colognes, perfumes, etc. I rarely bother to use any scents. (I do have common sense, however)

11:50 pm

yay west!

11:50 pm

fireworks!! next time i should stop in and finish babble before i go out

11:50 pm

ty lady

11:50 pm

Or common scents? :P

11:51 pm

yay lilli

11:51 pm

YAY lilliann!!!

11:51 pm

YAY lilliann!!!!

11:51 pm

YAY also west!!!

11:51 pm

J.C. what you enjoy smelling depends on your pheromone database, so to speak. It all goes back to childhood.

11:51 pm

Congrats, Lilliann!!! :)

11:51 pm

I own some lovely scents but never wear them now -- too many allergic friends

11:51 pm

Well done, Lil.

11:51 pm

So I've heard, Jacula . . .

11:51 pm

thanks all

11:51 pm

they thought he had spinal meningitis or west nile or lyme disease becasue of seizures and passing out - then his kidnry's tried to quit - then they found his body was producing ammonia and nitrogen

11:51 pm

I enjoy using precious oils a lot - in the bath and for cleaning, that might explain a lot.

11:51 pm

If you're going to wear perfume it must be a good one. Cheap ones are so misnamed.

11:51 pm

It's true jilli.. more and more people are sensitive to allergens

11:52 pm

ty stid

11:52 pm

Especially lemon and wintergreen . . .

11:52 pm

oh geez, ren!

11:52 pm

And lavendar, sometimes . . .

11:52 pm

and btw, the icon theme for Monday is Pefumes!!!!!!!

11:52 pm

Lavender, sorry!

11:52 pm

wtg west!!

11:52 pm

Caught it . . .

11:52 pm

isn't that a coinkydink

11:52 pm

hehe... how apropos

11:52 pm

Hmmm, Jilli - do they make 'scratch & sniff' icons? :P

11:52 pm

oh my goodness, didn't realize I hadn't finished this!!!

11:52 pm

I went out today and finished Babble when I got home, after wasting time watching 'I Am Legend' which rolled along nicely until the makers suddenly seemed to think, 'We'll finish it now!' Mind you, I did ony have about 19 words to find at that point.

11:52 pm

*Perfumes

11:52 pm

should i go to bed or stop up for flip??

11:53 pm

stay up lilli

11:53 pm

I do like lavender.

11:53 pm

I am going to stay for flip because I can sleep in a bit in the morning... *loving having a week off*

11:53 pm

flip's not that far away, west

11:53 pm

Stop up for the flip, Lilliann - if I can do it, so can you! ;)

11:53 pm

hello flosey -- how close are you? *ready to speed clue*

11:53 pm

oh jilli, weren't you a little sweetie

11:53 pm

11:54 pm

11:55 pm

11:55 pm

I had some Earl Grey the other night

11:55 pm

Not always, stidmama - I drink regular orange pekoe a lot as well. And sometimes, herbal teas . . .

11:55 pm

Lavender is calming, Frances. But don't buy it from a £1 shop.

11:55 pm

Should I put my childhood photo back?

11:56 pm

hi all! managed to get this grid finished earlier! hopefully flip will work tonight.

11:56 pm

I have my 'baby' in my profile now - my little girl! ;)

11:56 pm

11:56 pm

I like strong Orange Pekoe, thank you very much. Earl Grey is nice, occasionally.

11:56 pm

11:56 pm

11:56 pm

11:58 pm

11:58 pm

West was that the stids vids dream?

I was in here aout UK lunchtime and said that I'd been dreaming Babble the night before. I was clueing the word 'shoofly' for Ren. When I opened up today's grid the word was there all but the 'l' (el). Spooky!
