Hi Dee Jilli JC Everyone
hi
hi just
((sandy))
hi Just, how is your ankle?
and hi dee hi
slowly slowwwwwly recovering sandy, thanks for asking
hugs jili
I feel for you ....
Dee.....saw House epi from yesterday ....what did you want to talk about with regards to it?
and I feel for you and your daughter? Sandy...all my best
We love House here and have all episodes on dvd including the latest series
I found out today... last night couldn't figure out if actor Kal Penn was alive or dead
Hi, Just - and Dee! Sorry, had nose in grid . . .
Just they have decided on an op which will not be a fusion - no guarantees tho- booked for may 11
well someone said that you get the current shows a bit later than here in NA
oh lol ....he is
sandy -- I thought Canberra was the capital of Australia
but I was shocked and saddened by his very sudden demise
hi jc
I must have missed something... did you say Kal Penn died?
oh sandy -- that sound good for nik!
no he didn't die; his character did suddenly on House
No Huga he didn't but his character did
oh no... I missed it.
wished it hadda been Foreman instead...my least favourite
I'm not crazy over him either.
actually, reallllly don't like Foreman at all and never have
Jilli it is great and she is much brighter- involves breaking her arm and turning the joint around, partial joint replacement, cleaning of spurs etc. and muscle tightening - 2 well know perth surgeons are doing it together
sounds so great sandy! so happy for you both
but they explained that he got a job (Penn) at the White House, that he felt he just couldn't pass up
we live in hope Dee, thanks
yqw!!
Oh Sandy I so hope all goes well, would pray if I was a praying woman, so I'll just hope
omg, sandy -- have you told mrp about this? She can give you lots of support
I missed the details Sandy as I hadn't been around much but I did see your explanation the other day. How old is she?
NBT
34 and has had 3 ops on each shoulder- left one has failed and is now dislocating every 3 days on av.
Caused by seizures after taking Tramadol
omg sandy...is this from a disease or an accident or what?
ouch Hugs Nick and sandy
eight years of this Just
Tramadol? what is that for?
Jilli, has big talk with mr pres the other night, it was really great to hear her voice
Oh my god, Sandy - the poor lass! :(
it is a common non narcotic pain killer
herin -- interesting Canberra pic!
which she took for what?
period pain
5
the dislocations have to be extremely painful... feel so badly for her
it was prescribed to her
oh geez sandy.....sigh.....
glad to hear sandy, that you had a tlak with mrp
*talk
THanks Jilli. hi OSGM too sorry
I would love to talk to you all
I wonder if it's like Tylenol
It's so unbelievable....
late flip : ) hello all
no Jilli, its not
hiya westie :)
hi west
hi west
and a good thing too, eh Sandy?
hi west
Hi, westford! :)
hi west
a good thing?
hi just, sandy, flosey, JC and jilli
fireworks - Hi west
Sounds such an awful ordeal for her, Sandy - poor Nicky, hope this surgery happens and is a big success!!!
ugh -- 2 left -- a t and an a -- both 6's
wow hug wtg!
wow hugs lol and hi
wtg hug
nm, just!
Tramadol is a very strong pain drug.
ooh -- found the t
that's seems doable nan
thanks Dee, just and west
Yes, narcotic-strength.
JC it is an ordeal for me too - (she said completely self absorbed!!)
like Demerol?
yw
herin, it
Of course it is, Sandy - and hope it's all over for you all soon!!!
not as strong as demerol
av6 and ta6 x 2, te6
ty hug
awww sandy....nothing knows no bounds such as a mother's love
it's always a mother's pain whenever her children are hurting sandy
Yes, always . . .
? sandy
yw Dee - and I hope that helps you nan
*!* ta da *!* -- ty hugs
snap westie?
Herin, it's very strong especially when you are allergic to it as many people are- many docs have told me it should be taken off the market
yay nan!!
have never seen the av 6 before
yw nan
wow, nan!!!
lol Just, I think I will retire from Motherdom!
me neither Dee
Is that why Nicky's had seizures from it, Sandy?
just can't figure out how a pain killer for menstrual pains affects shoulders?
well, I'm off. g'night/day everyone.
night hugs
yes JC and they kept on giving it to her until they clicked! then the seizures stopped!!
Because it's been causing her to have very violent seizures, Just . . . which have then caused that.
have a great day hug!
My IDIOT dentist person in the hospital gave it to me and it was the worst thing. I was a zombie for 2 months as it interfered with my anti depressants. If it was not for the darling Sprite I wouldn't have known. Just it was a side effect of the drug that caused the problem
Just, when she had a seizure it dislocated her shoulders
good night hugs -- everyone :)
nite cyber
gn hugs and nan
night nan
oh geez....soooo sorry sandy....
Medical incompetence
night Cyber
But to happier subjects, we are getting a new ride on mower today!!
Can you sue, like the yanks do? Or are you like us....non suers?
Just, I think it would be too hard... although I do think about it
my cat ate the curtains AGAIN
he must have a fiber deficiency herin
Take the curtains down, herin
Board up the windows
a new ride on mower just for you sandy?
at least if you could bring this dr up against the medical board, just so that he would have to "pay" even if it meant fines and/or licence revoked: ie justice
I've seen that av6 before but with a C in the middle instead -- a pretty wading bird
anyone know what the last 6 was... I am short one
no then wnwould be ''nakid''
lol I have a nice red four wheeler motor bike and now husband has his ride on mower- lol both are red to match, sort of romantic isn't it?
oh dear dee I'm still working on getting NBT
lol don't even have one 6 Dee
:)
it is romantic lol
I just started sorry
me too westie...have one to go the first n in the 4 th column
dee how is Holy Week without your dear pastor?
must be hard
oooo NBT's
the last week has been a bit bizarre, but fine ty for asking west
just it's those vowels again I vote we get rid of them
You need matching ride-on mowers, Sandy - think how romantic that would be, and how much faster you woudl get all your grass cut? ;)
well I have NBT's so if you want/need help I'm here
dee did he have an assistant or did they bring in someone new?
2 left and can't find them, maybe they'll be easier to find in the morning
yay for NBT just
Volley did you get the exam with not off at the end?
goodnight all, too tired tonight
I had a nasty experience, the first time I used the ride-on mower I bought for this place, when we moved in - ran over a toad, it was awful! :( I felt terrible, and had to go back over him to finish him off, was so upset! :(
night Flosey
yes I have the te 6/7 and the ta 6 x 2...
thx westie but can't believe that evy1 is just about finished
gn flosey see you next time
owie JC but you did the right thing
JC if that was here and one of the cane toads I wouldn't feel bad
just -- I'm not even half way
ah, hour's up, can ask for clues!
night flosey
missing no6, clue please?
we have the most fun jilli and just there's nothing to do after we finish
Why is that, herin?
right, west
Because cane toads are destroying our land and are very poisonous. Hopefully our fire like ants will kill them off.
1st letters for the word used to put a name up for a person's candidacy for an election
well I can always find things (recreational) to do after I'm finished
well, actually, there's lots to do -- many sins of omission
Oh I see, herin - yes, you have a lot of very deadly, poisonous creatures there!
but not fun stuff jilli lol
JC if our native animals eat them they die -cane toads are evil
some fun stuff too
yep :D that is the best thing about here. Sandy anyone for a game of golf :d
thanks Dee
how did they get to Australia?
only good thing about a Montreal winter.....no bugs....no creepy crawlies, nothing venomous or poisonous
yw flosey I'm still missing one more 6 :(
sa6, second one, please?
Yes, they sound horrible, Sandy. :/
ty from me too dee
yipppeee flosey that's the one for me!!!
jilli, your icon reminds me of our dinner tonight- we are having lobster thermidor (lobsters on special) - Sorry JC but yum yum!
fireworks
Lobster on special?? were is mine?
ooh sandy please put some in the PB
yah ANike
Lobsters do suffer very badly, when boiled alive, Sandy. :( They have intracte nerve endings, apparently.
Very sensitive, to pain.
LOVE Lobster Thermidor -- my very fave. But you must be looking at the scorpion from yesterday -- better refresh!
JC. A good and fair chef will stab them in the head and kill them first (my b.f was one as a chef)
Both sa's same except for last letter
:(
But I tell you what i am not going to eat any meat that isn't free range any more
sa 6/18 both of them flosey... one start with more than one Father Claus and change last vowel
thanks anike
the toads were imported from Hawaii to control a grey beetle which was eating the sugar cane
other one change last consonant
these are already cooked Herin so I dont have to kill them (turn away JC)
Back to cooking
fireworks
ng flosey..
YAY flosey!!! I thought you said you were too tired!
Those poisonous toads, Sandy? They were imported???
yay flosey and you did it in your sleep..didn't you go to bed awhile ago?
As i said depends on the place. I watched a thing today on animals and farming and it was wrong. Made me remeber to go and get free range *already do with eggs*
flosey - You Hero!!!!
Yah Flosey. Yes JC they were
Yes they were introduced JC now they are a huge pest
and they have no natural enemy?
Oh, what a 'good' idea! :/
thanks for clues Dee and Anike, now, perhaps tomorrow I'll sew up a curtain for my west window - sun shines in on computer!! have been putting this off far too long
Like the rabbit plague in Aus, too...
Nup. But are crows and our version of fire ants are eating them
shh jilli the Easter Bunny might be listening
Crows are eating the poison toads? Doesn't that kill the crows???
almost west, was falling asleep here! but now to bed
Herin, I have been to a 'free range' place - they had about 100 chooks in a sandy chook yard , not really like our own chooks that wander around under the trees and on the grass
Nup. They flip them over and eat the belly.
but there are some better free range places than that i hope
yqw flosey
flosey nice you got that second wind
Sandy these are farms that the tree hugging hippy store have approved.
I get my eggs from a friend -- the hens wander all over the place including the kitchen of her house
Crows are very smart
well they would be the nice free range places then
Yes, that they are.
sandy -- do you see my current icon yet? And read about it?
have to do house work for at least 5 minutes
Yep. I get most of my veggies from Macro.
I will refresh

What 'buffaloed' me, Jilli?
Not even sure what you mean - have been elsewhere for a while now, off the computer . . .
the Celebes buffalo, JC, lol!
Oh, no idea what that was even about?
morning all..
JC one of the babblets is Celebes Ox we call it the buffalo
I was having breakfast with Mike, then seeing him off . . .
did you ever get it? an4/4 -- a babblet which often shows up
Oh . . . hmmm. OK, westford. I wasn't paying attention, too much going on around here at the time! :P
Morning, rolin . . .
we suggestd you google Celebes buffalo
hello rolin
Why, Jilli? That would probably bring up information about the animal.
that's how I found it the first time
there are just a lot of words not used much and jilli usually calls out alerts
and I. thanks!
I see . . .
are you feeling peckish this morning JC?
yes, JC, including its name
Well, not anymore, westford - had breakfast not long ago! ;)
that's good
I see, Jilli . . .
7 left here...
I like that we can all talk at different times of the day
go jilli!!
Yes, westford - and I can find out from the Aussies how the day went already, so if I have nothing planned, I can go back to bed if it's going to be a lousy one! :P HAHAHA . . .
As if . . . chance woudl be a fine thing! :P
ooooh..i just through the chog...i didnt realise the an4/4 was actually something real!
perfect JC
hey all
our oldest granddaughter is going to Australia in June she's getting back home before she leaves lol
hey bf
hello bfsog!
Yes, and I typed in the an4,4 name when I saw what Jilli said about it - have run into that word before. ;) So thank you, Jilli . . .
Hello, bfsog.

Doggy party, cute - did you invite other doggies to it? :)

Hey, that can't be bad, oodle! ;)
Awww, did she enjoy that, mrp?

hi mrp
what's that saying? Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
That's great - they do enjoy having another dog to play with, if they're sociable! :) We have three next-door, who mine will play with every chance she gets. :)
hi jilli!
hi all-hows everyone?..jules..pres..jill..west?
Or any fruit - or even vinegar, westford! :P
Nicky - how are you??? :)
I haven't been around too much cause of work and the enormous amount of children that we have in this house every day!!
I'm falling asleep but have 5 to go -- can't find mo5/12 -- anyone???

Can't, I'm afraid - places to go, people to see.
the kids did a vote, and voted us ... 'best mum and dad at the school'!! It was a great honour and totally unexpected!
lol-that would be strange wouldnt it
Awww how nice, mrp!!! :)
hmm-im jealous
how lovely mrp and we all agree!!
nik -- I'd love to see your icon but it's so big! See my profile for an easy way to resize photos
oh MRP -- of COURSE you won that vote!!!
Or Nicky - if you want to send me that photo in your profile, I will resize it for you and send it back. Would that help?
i would expect you to win that vote mrp
oh mum put my dog jaffa on my profile..i never look at the icons..mum tells me off and says i should change it but wouldnt know how
Oh never mind - duh, I can just save it then do it. I'm not awake yet, sorry! :P

not too bad I'm just chatty
Already done it for you, Nicky - where should I sent it?
Erm - 'send' it! :P
i know-shes my main motivator to get through things..how lame is that?
Shoot me an e-mail to the address in my profile, or my firstname.lastname @ inbox.com, Nicky - then I'll send the image file there.
not lame at all
oh thanks jules-just send it to mums email..wow what a wiz
they give unconditional love
Nothing lame about that, Nicky - mums are great for that! :)
OK, Nicky - doing that now.
i havent looked at my email for months so it might not be activated
oops her too thought you were talking about your dog lol
mum-no..lol..i meant jaffaa
good not that your mother doesn't give you the same kind of love

but she might wonder if you scratched her under her chin
ok later

Good morning all.
aww get out-youd be used to it
hello frances
Frances? Hello?!
hi frances
Hmmm - you're not on the messenger, Frances?
hi frances
handsome musical icon, frances
how come "goth" isnt a word? weird
hello mark
I think because it's a slang, shortened name for 'gothic', Mark? Not sure if it's in any dictionary yet . . .
proper noun, mark
greetings all
hi mark
shouldnt u all be in bed?
some of us should
as i should....
will fall off
Erm, not at 8:42 in the morning after breakfast, Mark!
I'm heading there
ill start that again-im going to start the grid else my shoulder will fall off
oh, well, its 2:42am here
have you all got fireworks?
not I
12:43 here
nor i
I have <preens>
good job jilli !!
last call for clues...
this one was so much friendlier than last night's
Enable is capricious. It matters not whether words in the grid are denied access to the list. Enable is the final and sole arbiter of what letters are accepted for any particular grid.
im amazed that "shant" is also not legal
THank you jilli. I liked it too. What is the theme for today?
thanks jilli I still have 20 left is it okay if I wake you up if I get stuck?
So no clues needed? Off I go -- night all!
ok im starting-excuse me if i miss you talking to me,its just that ill be working on the grid
hi, everybody!
sweet dreams jilli
hi mel
frances, for today's theme just click on my icon -- for you it will be London
Frances, are you a violist perchance?
Goodnight jilli.
hi melon
hi, jilli.
I wish melon.
melon -- my musical symbol icon was a Byzantine one -- I had hoped you would see it
oh, tenor clef. I'm a bassist, occasionally we play in tenor clef. especially when we pirate cello music!
Thank you jilli.
bab re what you said about enable how did that get chosen to be our word guru?
missed it sorry to say, jilli. I picked a musical icon, but for an entirely different reason.
and I'm sorry I missed yours, melon
it's right here! I just picked out my own icon today.
Well, now I'm really poofing -- *poof*
ew- I found an awful-sounding word!
really bye jilli
rats, i've be preemptively poofed!
awful smelling too mel
true, but awful-sounding is a cryptic clue. ;P
yes
*foop* -- back to say I finally saw your music, melon! Happy passover on Wednesday!
now *repoof*
WOw, only 2 left! Closest ever!
nite all! *poof*
go rose !!
gn mark
Anyone got the ta 5/20 or the ta 6/33?
a revenue not off
and plural
thanks jilli! now you can poof or foop to your heart's content! ;) I'm out too. I have no business being up so late. {p00Æ’}
Got em! And got fireworks too! Now I know what you all mean when you talk about fireworks! I am truly satisfied now - enuf to at least try to sleep. thanks to you all!
yay rose !! sleep well
and fireworks for me too.
since no one is left...Yay west.
can't have that! Congrats West!!
he - I stayed up long enough to NBT and get the 7
hi Melon!
thanks lyn I thought I was here all by myself
bye now happy everything
sweet dreams West
bye west
hi Niks
hi lynx..melon
Sorry Nicky - if you had said anything more to me? Was busy for a bit, again.
no..ive been trying to get the words and sorry if i missed anything from you to
im kinda concentrating on the grid and i may miss ppl talking to me so sorry about that
You haven't, Nicky - I've been busy elsewhere! ;)
oh-lucky mike
just kidding
do you mind me calling you jules?
mum told me not to call you jules but i told her ive always called you jules
No, Nicky - don't mind what you call me, as long as it's not too early in the morning! ;)
Isn't 'JC' easier to type, though?
lol-ok ill remember that
im just used to jules
My friends never call me that, because there is already a 'Jules' in our social circle - his name is Julius. Too similar already, but then everyone calls him 'Jules'.
ah ok-but he dosent come on here does he?
would you like caeser instead
Why would you call me that, when my name isn't Julius? :P
ok ok..you win
Hmmm . . . but, as his is - we should call him that! :P
:P
yes its a great honour
It is?
i would have thought..the great julius caeser..probably ive spelt it wrong though
Caesar . . . almost right! ;)
I don't think I'd want to be confused wth him! :P
ah yes..thats it..almost
lol
Although, I do have a photo I posed for a long time ago, wearing a toga with a laurel wreath around my head.
do you have the photo?how cool but i bet ironing it would be a pain
snd the photo..love to see it
snap
Oh, I'll look it out some time, Nicky . . .
Meanwhile, if you want a giggle . . .
http://www.thesaucyvegan.com/showthrea d.php?t=458
Read that entire thread, both pages - some real comedians on that forum, HAHAHA!
Especially Martin (Gliondrach) - he cracks me up!
cant wait-thats a pretty precise site-you must be so organised..mumsais youre very good on the comp
Why are you saying I'm organised, because of that forum site? It isn't mine, I didn't do it! :P
what time is it there?have you been on a long time?
It's owned and run by a friend of mine, Laura - she is 'Fauxmage' there.
oh ok-well im useless on the comp-it just sounded impressive
ok i c
It's 9:35 am, and I've been logged in a good while now, but not always here - was off having breakfast with ike for a while, then seeing him off, and doing other things. So I'm only halfway through the grid . . .
Will have to leave it soon, too - other things to do!
mikes gone away..or just offf to work?
Gone to work, yes . . .
hmm..you must be tired
i cant stay on here long-drives me crazy
especially when i can only use one hand..grrr
thanks so much for getting jaffa back to size by the way
shes about half that size in real life..quite tiny
Oh, you're welcome Nicky . . .
Now post that picture in your profile!
va
It's very easy - just click the 'My Account' link above here to the right, and you'll see what to do.
ok-ill have a mess around with that a bit later..has simon and garfunkel toured there yet?do you like them?
Nicky - it takes but a minute to do! ;)
yeah but im talking to you and id prob do something wrong
mum dosent like me stuffing around on it because it plays up..and i have to obey mother
so ill have to wait til shes not around and do it..so you see...
Oh, OK . . .
im going to take some more pics of my girl and try and do it myself..im sure ill work it out
there has been some interest in some promotional work for her...how awesome would that be
i might be able to get her on an add or something
For who, Nicky?
Hmmm, Nicky - now you have a photo of a cat in a tree in your profile - what happened to the one of Jaffa?
Oh well - have to head off here, so you take care Nicky, and hope things go better for you, while you're waiting for that op! *HUGS!*
yeah..i just tried to put our cat banjo on my profile to see if i could do it
thanks so much jules..hugs and have fun..talk soon
hey all
hey bf
hows jacq?
i'm good, got the kiddie napping again and have time to play
how are you?
good thank you, yesterday just before i parked my car i got bombarded by a squadron of seagull poop. the traffic lights were amber so i stopped and boom, my car went from silver to brown
and people say im quiet, lol
lol
i can imagine how that sounded, looked and smelled
driver behind me was laughing which was harsh
i would have laughed too, in fact i might have needed a sudden change of undies
thank you for that laugh, i needed it so badly
tbh i would have too, i can see the funny side but it has done nothing for my opinion on seagulls
no problem, these things seem to happen to me
LOL could have been worse, before the depletion of the fishing fleets they used to follow the boats in and eat the guts discarded as the men gutted the catch
imagine how bad that would have smelled
all that fishy of5 falling on your car
no thanks - when i parked i had a tea towel in my car so i was trying to wipe off the junk cos i didnt want it sitting on my car all day, i was gagging :\
lololol
LOLOL - what a way to start the morning
i'm sorry for laughing but it reminds me of taking my daughter for her first day as a volunteer at a marine aquarium and she had a close encounter and we had to take her home to change cos it went everywhere
heya kje
the birds? or did she get scared? lol
omg, bf - there is no way I would have touched that stuff
hi jac
the birds, oh my it was like a cloudburst of poop
i know but it was at 8am and i work til 6 so didnt want it sticking in, gave it a wash last night
brb doorbell
i would have been late to work and run it through the carwash... but could never have done what you did... yuck
bird poo bringing babblers together, anyone else have a story to share haha
i got hit on the shoulder and side of head once by bird poo in cyprus - gag
yeah it is said to be good luck
was in a small village about to walk into an art gallery - it was horrid
good luck? have never heard that
us weird brits just put a positive spin on everything
it is supposed to be good luck, but god knows why
trying to remember if I was lucky after that.... hmmm
nope
you'll probably find if you research far enough back that some poor person was pooped on and in going home to change their clothing they missed some terrible disaster, that's where most of the good luck or bad luck stuff comes from
this grid is hard... everyword so far is a search
i know from my dad being a fisherman that they were very superstitious and would turn the boats van around if they saw a certain local village idiot, because some boats crew had seen her and the boat sank a few days later with the loss of some lives
wow, jac... that recently? sounds like something from the middle ages
that recently, it's a very human thing to blame some small change in routine for a disaster, boats in the north east of scotland won't have swan vesta matches on board
what is that?
they look for something beyond their control and yet not entirely outwith the realms of reason
i think in the past it was a way of dealing with the losses, the town i came from was a very small place in the 17th century, they had enough able bodied men to crew two boats
one day as the boats were coming into harbour, with their wives and children waiting on the beach to offload the fish both boats overturned and every man was lost
what is a swan vesta?
it's a type of match, long narrow yellow box with a swan on the top
interesting
what village jacq?
i just wasn't raised superstitious, and know very few people who are... I wonder if certain professions, like fishing, where danger is high, are more apt to be superstitious
the boats used to be blessed by the local minister before they went to sea, these were the days in the 20th century when all the men in a family would crew a boat, so losing a crew was a real blow in a town where everyone was related through blood or marraige, no matter how distant
buckie, in moray
know it well
you do?
really?
i think they are kje, and they use routines to ward off bad luck, hence the superstition about small changes
well, i mean i know where it is
ahhhhh
my surname is quite similar to buckie
this grid sucks
it sooooooo does jac - ridiculous
have only found 30 so far
i have 42 but i have been here for 2 hours in and out
I flew through yesterday's - unbelievably fast... now today - i swear it took me a full minute just to see my first word
i have 48 words, haven't been on that long but every one has been a struggle
i am just making up words at the moment
is anyone nbt?
hell no
My only bt is that lefter o. And hello to all since a million grids!

LOL jac - how often do you go back?

ive driven through parts of Moray very scenic
oh yes, i have two granddaughters one who is 3 in october and the other is one in may
congrats jac - est lookin' granny award - LOL
it's beautiful bf, i always hated living there because they are so narrow minded and judgemental, but god i miss the scenery
quite similar to my mum jacq, she has 2 nieces, one is 5 one is 1 and a half
awwwww ty kje, but the front view is more scary lol
LOL
lol i have 37 nieces and nephews and 14 great nieces and great nephews
and anothr great on the way
yeah the judgemental thing is easy to come by
wait not nieces, i have 2 nieces but my mum has 2 grandchildren**
lol
it's easily done
OK, eked my way to 1/2... think i deserve coffee - bbiab
i miss my grandchildren, and my daughters too of course, but i miss taking the kids to the hills and the beaches
nice tattoos by the way! painful
they weren't too bad, only when they hit bone, i was really skinny when i got them done so hitting bone did just that i think lol
and thanks
yeah bone is meant to be bad
i need coffee too, brb
Good Morning
hi carlee
how are we all this am?
not too bad, theres a funny story about seagulls back in the chog if you want a laugh!
heya carlee
it's a beautiful day here, not helping with the homesickness
ick..Beach chicken that poop on u...and make a general nuisance of themselves...
they are as big as dogs
laughs, beach chicken, they taste nothing like chicken and their eggs are salty as hell
I must have missed something..why are we homesick jacq?
i was looking for some pics of where i lived before and now i'm homesick
http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl= http://www.lynmacdonaldphotography.co. uk/resources/_wsb_433x300_0796_Aurora_ Buckie.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.lynmac donaldphotography.co.uk/7.html&h=300&w =433&sz=37&tbnid=s9N76ntMdULHNM::&tbnh =87&tbnw=126&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dbuckie &usg=__BTmQ4zm7mgtz-gZCnsoh8giHmgU=&ei =6HzcSeCVPMrOjAeWx-ykDg&sa=X&oi=image_ result&resnum=5&ct=image thats why
i saw the sea every day
Bf..um...that is a bit of a killer URL...tinyurl it perhaps?..I have to cut and paste each individual line
now i get to see grubby canals
im just the messenger!
we can't, that's exactly as i copied it
sorry
they are SUCH a nuisance here...I know people ( I have NOT done this BTW ) they toss moth balls up at them..the dumb things think they food..and swallow...die almost immediately
http://www.lynmacdonaldphotography.co. uk/7.html
thats better
i find it hard to believe they are a protected species, they are dangerous, my neighbour's son used to get chased every day by one nesting across the road
i never knew they are protected
much better bf
yes, even thoug they are a nuisance
coffee is not helping
hey carlee! you must LOVE this grid... since you usually do when I hate it - LOL
hi everyone... jacq, are you talking about gulls?
well... jacq... whales and seals aside... I am about a 5 min walk from what the "sail boat" pic looks like
yes oodle
no idea kje...I'm writing an e.mail to my aunt
wow carlee you lucky thing
darn - then we can't even sponge clues off you
i remember once when i was working, we were on the pier of a local harbour fishing with two really rowdy teenage boys and the dolphins turned up, herding fish into shallower waters, they were there for about an hour
both boys were totally silent watching this, they had never seen anything like it
they spoke about it the whole weekend we had them, it was amazing
I live a 5 min walk from Lake Huron, yesterday I got in my car to go to work..loaded all my "stuff" for the day ( was running to pathfinders from work )...and I thought...that a funny noise....openned door..was the crashing of the waves I was hearing
waves mmmmmmmmmmmm
sighs
goes to dry my eyes
brb
aaaaaahhh jac - we are making her homesick... maybe we should change the topic
ummm..my life is crazy... BUSY... lets see what I am planning in pathfinders and guides if there anything interesting..we doing another dove sleepover and I have an aesthetician coming to do facials and pedicures
what is a dove sleepover?
www.dovesleepover.ca
THAT is the dove sleepover
they are SO much fun....I've ordered a bunch of dove pj bottoms and dove sample packs for my girls
cool idea, carlee...i was some PJ pants - LOL
we'll watch the movie..order in pizza... eat loads of popcorn...we are making the "home made" facial scrubs and masks....
how old are the girls?
I did that last year at camp..no movie.....no facials..but we did self esteem activities at our camp
sorry kje..liking this grid...

what do tile stats mean?
that tell you hoew many words are made with each letter and how many you have, for example the g has 2/2 on mine meaning i got 2 of two words
aloft
loft

je fin
hmm the tile and word stats help once you know about them, lol
there is a list too spinner, at the bottom of this page look for lickety's babble clues, that link gives you a list with the first two letters and the total points for ewach word
hold on, I have 5 words beginning with T but tile stat says 1/4....confuzzled
the words score like this, 4 letters is the value of the tiles, 5 letters is doubles, 6 is tripled etc
maybe one of the t words you have is from a different t tile
there ate three t's
tile stats... tellyou how m any words come off that word..and if u go to lickety's babble clues...give u the first 2 letters and the point value..and length of word

More monkeying around later..off to get some lunch
bbl
bye spinner
TY jacg Spinner...words are right in front of us and sometimes we simply don't see them! :) Welcome.
Good luck later, spinner!...bye...
brb ciggie break
my monkey just died of overwork../
Awww, poor monkey! :(
mine is floundering, too, crossy...
poor crossy, with no monkeys this grid is hard
I was hoping for a huge grid today...having thumb surgery tomorrow and it will render me slooowww on the keyboard!
type like me jimmel i use four fingers
can do 80 words a minute that way
LOL....I would probably not finish any grids that way, jacq!
Ouch, jimmel - hope it goes well!
jimmel here is a program for the thumb disabled "dragon naturally speaking"
i can set it up so i never touch the keyboard with that program
my speach recognition can't recognise my accent
speech
achhhh
good for when the carpel tunnel operation is ready
this one will
My "trigger thumb" is quite amusing when it's not keeping me awake at night with pain...snaps back and forth into place....
you train it
by reading text to it and teaching the individual words it misses
i tried training it, i even tried beating it witha sharp pencil
i gave up
mm your brogue must be thick as the head on a glass of stout
lol
does it recognize the queen's english, jacq? then you could use a sword tip instead of a pencil
laughs it can be if i've just spoken to the girls or my mum
well the boss tried it too and he speaks better english than i do but he just got mad at it
version 10?
dunno, will look
casue my da,s is pretty thick still and i got it to do his voice
how long did that take?
ive been in canada too long so ive lost most of mine
i'm afraid babble doesn't incorporate most of my frustrated mutterings in the grid, so the voice recognition would be a wash for me!
took 2 months of traing the program
read to the thing every day
and the swear words would be interesting
bed-time stories?
i should really use it more
Lots of effort there...any fairy tales?
lol gaelic swar words may not work lol
laughs, i don't know most of the babble words never mind how to pronounce them
i once tried to speak newfie to it lol think vapour locked
thing
relating to that, jacq!
LOL
need more newfie screech on board im thinking
Back to the 23 ornery words hiding in this grid...will consider 4-fingered typing after tomorrow's cutting job on my near-useless thumb---
im of the hunt and peck breed anyways
you and my hubby...
but ive gotten good at it,i can type almost 50 wpm with 2 fingers
i hope it goes well
it's a skill
thx, jacq...dr says 99% certainty it will fix the prob..
nerve damage?
good
um...tendon "pulley" that is enlarged and irritated...common, apparently...he will snip the tendon...right now it hurts from thumb tip to beyond wrist...swollen, etc...and kinda misshapen after abusing it for 4 months
ahh ok..ive seen many with that from construction injuries
it just depends how far you have abused it since it has started
wielding a mouse, a remote, and a paintbrush (done 7 rooms and all the trim work) hasn't helped!
yeah, when they say rest it, they really mean pretend you have no hand
indeed jaq
nods, i've had trouble with wrists and elbows for years, and steroids can't be used any more
my left hand is useless..needs immediate training in how to do everything...can barely dial a telephone with it...
steroids can cause as many issues as they resolve
jimmel start today, tie your hand to a belt lop
thinning of the skin, etc
i had a cortisone shot in december, but this dr says he doesn't even try that with thumbs...
and after tomorrow pretend you have only a left hand because if you do more damage you will regret it
well, it will have to be a quck training session, jacq..like overnight!
you get that thinning on predneslone (sp)as well
you have no option, you can't even accidentally use the bad hand after the op
i've had 4 steroid injections in each wrist and each elbow, gawwwwd they hurt
i should have done something about it long ago, but am stubborn about getting things done! The re-do on our house was something I happily took on...but i'm paying for it now
nasty
kinda like being vain and in pain (high heels, etc) for others...mine is "house vanity"
my brother who works with the computer as part of his job got carpel tunnel in both wrists hence i set him up with the speech to type program..funny thing my hunt and peck method will prevent me from ever getting it,it typing propery with bad wrist support that causes it;)
damn typos
smiles we worked it out
I've had that already, crossy...surgery in '94 on right wrist...you are so right! I sound like a masochist!
<< doesn't do vanity like makeup or heels
babblers are typo translation experts anyways;)
yes jimmel you do LOLOLOLOL
yes jimmel you do LOLOLOLOL
i don't even own a hairdryer
can't be a martyr if you don't work at it! Ha!
laughs
my wife(who has long hair) almost never uses a hair dryer
ψ Ψ ψ Ψ ψ → W I R E F O R K S ↠ψ Ψ ψ Ψ ψ
most martyrs didn't suffer for as long as you have
hard on the hair she says
*POOF!*
very hard on the hair
yaa for jc!
wtg JC
well, me either...but i do a bit of makeup so i don't look like the living dead...too fair
my better half also uses a touch of the ole war paint
speaking of which...time to get dressed! BBL!
last 6 and am struggling
yup we must do sum laundry tc all and il;l bbl
hb
and fireworks!!
you done? yay...on 42 myself
would anyone like some clues before i go?
thank you spinner
so tempting to ask for clues... but no
smiles, look for add on endings, odd endings too
and not always english words either
and good luck

Morning TO
Hello TO and everyone else.
hi peeps lady
had key lime pie for you. like every day... it is my mission to find out which restaurant makes the best.
hi haz and judy c
gee judi didn't i just speak with you lol! hi doren and cj and oodle and = haz!
kewel dorens... yum
lol, Dorens. That's a lot of key lime pie when you are in the Keys.
Hello there - must check out TO's icon.
Yeah, I was up past my bedtime last night. Naughty me.
*mouth is watering thinking of key lime pie from Florida*
Hi, Haz!
doren are you in key west? the little stand left side of street right near the wharf is the best
be sure and get key lime juice before you come back dorens
OMG, Peep Elvis. Classic.
hello
i mean not a stand, a shop. the place at mallory suqare sucked.
arent ovas eggs?
Hello Judi and harpjane
why are they not in dictionary
Ova are eggs. No plural on that.
hi all
ova is already a plural for ovum meaning egg
in the middle of the keys. drove to key west the other day. back now and not leaving midkeys... much more lowkey, (haha) and to my liking
oh ok
thought that was ovum
yepper. but "ova" ois the plural
or ovae
Unless you're from Jersey - then they are "over".
ah doren how is the weather?
oh ty peeps
hee hee he judi
ah jane, my partner in peeps!!! :D
jane?
weather was incredible until ridiculous winds came in yesterday ---and now it is 64 degrees... but still beautiful (that pic was taken only about 20 minutes ago) ova is ova and i'm jersey bred, judi!
I think i might make a diorama of my own this weekend....
TO, where did you find that peep pic?
how many words today
LOL jane did you check out the washington post for inspiration?
Okay - maybe "over" is from Long Island. Fuggeddabowdit.
99 words today
how;s the weather up there owl? 99 words

You're welcome.

The people in the States have the advantage over us. They've been doing the peep stomp dance for decades.
Is it complicated?
I think my icon is what it must look like after the Peep Stomp Dance. Colorful but sticky.
ta 6/21 anyone?
oh gosh and i have never heard of the peep stomp dance.. have led a sheltered life i guess
Kind of Jackson Pollock meets peeps.

Hello, all non-marshmallow Peeps!
Greetings, Vicuna!
How are you, Haz the Magnificent?
hi vand all!
and TO the Grand?
Magnificent? Moi?
?!
I'm very well, thank you. How are you and the twins of wonderment?
Sure. Why not? It's better than being Haz the Mediocre.
This is very true. And I've always thought of TO as being distinctly not average.
Swell, as always, thanks. We went to girl-Tog's class "parent coffee" this morning, and each of the kids had a little computer thing that said what they would like to save their money for...
It could be anything, and the items ranged from a packet of stickers to a vacation house, but our daughter said...
"I'm saving my money for a cell phone, because I can't find my old one."
well maybe "not normal: would be more precise ;)
She didn't.
I was so embarrassed and wanted to reassure all the other parents, "Don't worry, our 6-year-old never had a real cell phone!"
And did they believe you, do you think?
We let her play with her dad's old cell phone that wasn't on a calling plan any more, but it could still take photos. Sigh.
LOl kids say the darndest things...
Well, I didn't say it, so I have no idea what they're thinking! lol
Did they allow eyes to roll or tongues to tut?
So that's my news. Anyone else got anything?
btw are the v words ordinary? i only have the measure of electricity.
My mind always goes blank when asked for news.
I have one that's va4/7 and I have no idea what it means.
The measure of electricity plus a letter and va4/7 is the other.
i do, however, see ernest borgnine's wife and the king of denmark today
Ah, apparently L pl of duct
You keep such exalted company, TO.
It's a wonder you talk to us at all.
ty all the v s are vanquished!
She's really so down-to-earth in spite of it all, isn't she.
*giggle*
Absolutely. She may be grand but she knows how to talk to the little people.
So unspoilt.
Completely. It's so refreshing.
It's an honor to be around her.
thank you.....thank you very much ;)
Because Ernest Borgnine's wife hasn't said a word to me all morning.
I know - especially when you know that she's planning her will. She's been to a seminar and everything.
And the King of Denmark has been giving me the cold shoulder.
lololol
That Borgnine woman could take a leaf out of TO's book.
'How to talk to the little people' by Mrs Borgnine.
Ah yes, the will... Did I say how lovely TO is?
How much she feels just like family to us?
Closer than family. Close as close as close can be.
SUUUUUPER close.
i am sad to say that you are not lineal reltives, so you will pay taxes over 15%
They're talking about naming a glue to describe the closeness of us to TO.
That's okay. If I have to pay 50% taxes, the other 50% is still sounding nice!
I don't think the law of England applies to American tax laws. I'm home and dry.
They already did -- Super glue, of course!
But this is the extra strong version. Super duper glue.
True enough, Haz. It would be a shame to underestimate the incredible bond we share with our beloved TO.
Don't misunderestimate that bond.
I do apologise. I didn't mean to bring back bad memories.
however, the proceeds from life insurance are not taxed...
Aaargh!
Aha! Speak on, TO, you interest me strangely.
The aargh was for Haz. For TO I am sneaking up very very quietly...
where is our babble attorntey when we need her?
Your life insurance is in good shape?
There's a question for FM's quiz. Where's our babble attorney? (WHo is our babble attorney, I've forgotten?)
lo lyou lot of connivers.
We have a Babble attorney?
fm is giving a quiz? i am good at quizzes
Sticks and stones, TO. You're just testing our bond. It is unshakable, just like super-duper glue.
hi all :)
Yes, she's composing a babble quiz to see who knows their babblers. She'll need help in getting some hard questions.
Atalante!
that reminds me. need to go get the passport app
How are you, Ata the Marvelous?
hi all!
Nice to see you - are you well? And suck up to TO, she's making out her will.
ata! things like what was thethe infamous hot tub filled with? who had the key and list it?
oooo I like that!
Hello nrkii!
And nrkii the Fabulous!
hi nrk!
Exactly, TO. It will sort out the sheep from the non-sheep and see who's paying attention.
I am fabulous, aren't I?
I don't need to suck up to TO. She thinks I'm wonderful already
If you're not a sheep are you a lamb or a human?
I've always said so, nrkii. Every day I think 'That nrkii is a marvel'
Perhaps, Ata. But has she made you a beneficiary in her will?
If you're not a sheep, just be thankful.
i think it's the accent. gives a halo effect.
Oh, I am no sheep. I am a most splendid Vicuna!
good point
well Haz, it's always good to include those little reality checks throughout your day
Does the halo effect cover all British accents?
Absolutely, nrkii. When things are going astray, I can ground myself in knowing that you're a marvel.
hm*thinks of craig ferguson* maybe not
and so I enter...hello you stupendous babblers
hi Annie!
Annie!!!!!!
Hello, Annieb the Fantastic!
Anniebrook the wonderful! How nice that we superior beings are gathered together.
Ah, Vicuna and Haz know me well
Man, I'd better put on some sunscreen before the combined brilliance of the chat log becomes a burn risk!
I understand Owl is adding a codicil to her will
Owl dear, you darling girl, how are you today?
Getin line, Annie, get in line.
topical, Vi. Sunscreen is in the news today
We were just discussing TO's will when all of a sudden, rawther suspiciously, all you folks started popping up!
Is it, Ata? What for?
too many young ladies getting skin cancer because they don't know about tanning being bad
Still? Sigh. That's not new news.
oops back...phone . anniebrook!
ugh, I have to do my will one of these days
Owl, dear
ooh ata too weird. that was my skin doc on the phone.
nope. you would think people would have learnt by now!
Uh oh, time to turn the flattery machine on "Fulsome" and direct it toward nrkii.
nice try annie ;)
Owl, Is everything okay?
every thing is fine!
Vicuna, I'll leave you all my babble clues, k?
Awww, that's lovely, nrk! I'll keep them in an urn by my computer.
Owl, glad to hear that
LOL Vi!
and the patent on all of your inventions. the inventions will be in fm's quiz?
That's good, TO. Was there a scare?
You see, Vicuna has a flattery machine. My sentiments are from the heart, not mechanically generated.
shoot, 6 left and I'm totally stuck
Fear not, nrkii. CluesRus is in operation.
last year. so must go for checkups periodically.
That may be so, Haz, but mine are the highest quality technology can provide, sleek, shining, electroplated, and delivered at up to 60 mph on a single charge.
is there an A6 at all?
Still. Where there's technology there's the possibilty of failure.
av6/27 - alt spelling of shorebird
av 6
or an L6, or an M6?
Indeed there is, nirkii. Second letter needed?
Like there wasn't the possibility of failure in pre-industrial-revolution flattery?
No l or m6
s6. t 6 all i have so far
thanks for the a6 hint
is there a p6?
There was the possibility, Vicuna, but unmechanised flattery is most reliable. Call me old-fashioned but there you have it.
that's silly. It's clearly not really spelled that way
nope
No p6
brb must get lunch
Be careful not to choke, TO. Not before you get that will written.
I agree, Ata.
okay, so I'm missing one s6 and one t6... already have sa 6 18 and ta 6 33 and te 6 18
Haz and I are feeling most solicitous of your well-being, TO. (For now.)
ta6/33
yep, have that one... or are there 2?
ta6/21 is another t6
I have only 1, but there could be more. Aha!
f
thanks Haz!
You're welcome!
Thanks, Haz.
okay, so one more s6, and then just 3 more little words
There are two sa6/18
a
my BR-style phantom of the day: toxoplasmosis
Thanks again, Haz the Magnificent.

You are most welcome, Vicuna the unbelievably talented.

My first time being home in 3 weeks
No. I meant me too was missing the mo5/12. I still have 18 to go.
that is nice if only for the day. :)
ma
oh. well yay in advance :)
hi everyone
hi Mom
Nrkii, where have you been? (If I am not being nosy)
Oh my, it is lunch time, isn't it! I'd better go scare something up. Back in a jiff.
hi mom! and please refresh you lot had to change my icon fo rthe occasion.
I will share my ham on rye and chips, Vi
I've been up in Massachusetts with my parents -- my dad got very sick and was in the ICU for 3 1/2 weeks, and is improving now, though still in hospital
oh Nkrii, I am so sorry
I snuck back to NJ last night so I could grab some mail and clothes and then I'll go back up tomorrow (after getting my hair cut!!!)
Hi {{Mom}}
{{Annie}}
it's been a long month, but it's had it's silver lining
nrkii, Glad your Dad is improving
still, I'm glad to see my house again
I do hope you gets along well and home soon
TO, love the icon. I love peeps too
It's good that you're getting a bit of a break, nrkii.
Hi Haz
Hello Mom
Ooh, that sounds hard, nrkii. But it's good you could be with him.
I am sure you have been a great help to your mom as well and being there for your dad
must have felt good to sleep in your own bed. what is the silver lining? terrible lag today here.
sorry, stepped out to talk to a neighbor
silver lining is how much caring people have offered
also, there are very funny moments and sweet moments peppered throughout anything like this
I thought the silver lining was being able to babble with wonderful people like us.
that too Haz, of course!
really almost goes without saying
I thought so, but thought I'd say it anyway.
Isn't it funny how whenever people say "not to mention" they're mentioning?
love the icon, mom.
thanks TO
crossy comes up for air:)
Hi Crossy
howdy mom'
(Had crossy put Haz in his will by mistake?)
about time to take the wrappers off the peeps so they can start getting stale
(If so, he's lucky he made it to the surface.)
lol Vi
okay, I have to go get lunch and make calls
he he he
happy babbling everyone!
hagd nrk
Bye, nrk the Fantastic! (Or whatever you were.)
bye bye Nrkii, take care of yourself and speedy recovery to your dad
thanks!
poof

Everybody has to love VI.

<=(
Yay! I'm putting Haz in my will!
You've got your alpine winds?

Hooray! That's another will in which I will feature.
And Ata gets a cut again, too!

Good, good.
id put one of you in my will but i dont think any of you have any use to my molly blooms pub membership,my cigar colletion or my collection of playboy magazines going back to 1969:))
only have 4 sixes though. and the 7.
There are two of6 - one occurring most frequently, the other not in the middel, kind of.
Yikes! What a treasure trove you have, there, crosshair. =?
ty haz..needed that one that was not quite centered
middle. What's wrong with me?
awww there is a painting elephant
Well, you did say "kind of" lol
Where?
lol haz,i read so many of my own typos that your little one hardly registered
a safari park here. she's been nominated for a wildlife painting prize
oooh, 99 - I can handle 99!
What's the prize? Peanuts?
think I will go and rest for a bit. Take care and I wish you all fireworks
ata i copied that pic for a future icon. i actually have a workmate who has a painitng in her office by an elephant. it's pretty.
Hello, AsGreen.

Bye Mom.

Fine thanks, AsGreen. Yours?
they're great. Just keep getting better and better! Ten is awesome
My parents are taking them to London on Saturday for just about a week...
That's what I like to hear!
Ooooh. A struggle to find which set of twins is most worthy of wonderment.
Wow, that sounds fabulous for all concerned!
I'd say beginning at 8, well, as we liked to say "8 is great"
yes, hubby and I (giggles to admit) are going to Vegas! lol
Hmm. "Six is mixed."
hi haz! how're the workouts? I'm still doing bootcamp....
lol - I'd agree about 6. Some high highs, and some low lows!
I'm glad to hear it. I think you need to up the tummy exercises.

***** splash **********
*towels off keyboard*
everyone ran from the water
I was under the desk. I find it best.
A wise precaution.

And now, I must go. It's been tremendous to be in the company of brilliant, entertaining and witty people and Ata. Have a good day!
lol, Haz! Farewell!
Ill assume you mean I'm even more brilliant than everyone else :)
(Ata, dearest, you know I'm joking?)
bye bye, haz. see you tomorrow.

Of course that's what she meant, Ata. Of course it is.

well i do need a bitty break and some encouragment.
ok peeps time to go, with 19 left. happy babbling!

Hi Mik...thanks for the offer

Congrats mik

HI ALL - anyone have a clue for my last word, the no6,21?
Think name babbz
latin
holy cow that was it! thanks much!
yw!
latin name?
Always the brides maid...nver the bride LOL I always seem to have a clue for others last word...but I never finish. LOL LOL
never mind, got it
does anyone need a clue?
I know what you mean!
what are the rules for cluing is it any clue but the answer
I don't know of any real rules, other than avoid using the words in the grid
That's a slightly controversial topic here in Babble, Mik! Generally speaking, best to try to give clues that are definitional or cryptic, or break the word down a little, but not to spell it out! Some people request "dumbed down" clues if they can't figure it from the others. Congrats on finishing! (And with that, I must run!)
Mik, try to avoid things like "cross letter" for a T, or "double hump" for an M, or "chair" for an H, and suchlike.
and hello all!
Giving out the 3rd, 4th and 5th letters for free is also generally discouraged :)
hi jilli
hey everyone, small one today!
hi ew! Not too bad a one, either.
could I have a small clue for the al 5, 16 please?
back in a bit for a bit (lunchtime and then I have to go)
al5/16 -- up above
got it, thanks
yw :)
totally just guessed and got the av 6, 27!!
Share with those of us in need!!!!!
indeed!
trying to think of a clue, hang on
if you have the word above it, you start with that and add 2 letters
does that help?
well its same as the av 4 7 and what u let jellly do before u eat it ,is that ok
ty aslindy!
I was a bit late with that one
ty mik:)

hello all, taking a few minutes to unwind before rushing off to a marathon class day.
Nice to see you, Stid :)
thanks Nancy Boy! why does your icon have a butterfly?
Goodmorning everyone
hey lynxxx!
hi lynxxx
afternoon lynn;)
hi stidmama
If you take a closer look, Stid, it's actually a heart design - never viewed it as a butterfly before!
Colhad! hi, long time no see
hello colhad! haven't seen you in a while
yeah, blame a PS3 for that
guess it is, NancyBoy! LOL
lol colhad..fps games are my time vampire;)
Well icons are changing with the times, these days ;) I even put a picture of myself up the other day. Briefly - it was from one or two years ago (ie, before eyeliner) and it was very obvious from the photo that I thought I was hot stuff ;)
too bad I missed that, NancyBoy! did you still have braces? *wicked mama grin*
I have never played a PS game. are they fun?
Nothing like that, Stid - just sort of, you know, bad teenage pout, sulky face, hand in hair...the works of baditude ;)
yeah, better than Xbox 360 :)
ah, yes, the infamous pose... LOL
actually, the only video games I have played are a few on the wii, Asteroids, PacMan and Pong (when that was cutting-edge...)
yeah, I played them as a youngster
i view it as a heart in the bare centre and the wings on the outer
That's what it is, Crossy - at least, I think. At least, I hope...
at first I thought it was a butterfly
yes, that is how I interpreted it when I saw in in a big pic, but when it was small, it looks like a lovely butterflyu
mine is Darth Vader
trying for NBT, have to leave in 20 minutes... help on the V please? and the A on the top.
Now I feel rather embarrassed. I see it just as a symbol for the band Placebo ;)
really? I thought it was "
"Santy Claws"

Wooo, Stid!!
harley
yaa for stid! 21 gun salute for you!!
How great would that look Cross! not sure what it would look like when you are 85 though
ooh, or a potential video game Valkyrie vixen headdress...i could totally see that!
it would look like a decrepid vulture of course;)
cross have you been bald??? *knits bright pink and yellow touque to keep warm*
yes stid i have had a few bald episodes
but we are good now
*hugs cross* but not right now, yet?
good. *happy mama look* I want all my friends to be healthy and happy.
nope..in the pink
of course, it isn't really possible... but still *determined mama look* if _I_ ran the universe...
okay, must away to class. I am so happy to have finished the grid today! *hugs all* be well, be good, happy hunting! *poof*

Good evening everyone.
hi Elder, nice to see you too
yes indeed nancyboy i get the same thing im a taurus and im the type that will pour out my entire life story in ten minutes;/
Heh, likewise, NB - I've noticed that I've become a lot more popular since the microphone on my phone broke -- all I can do is listen to people when they call
lol
LOL, Takuma! Yup, the art of the great conversation is apparently to try and listen, rather than waiting to butt in with your own story ;) Or so they say. I tell them I'm so much more interesting, but they never listen...;)
Cross, I've no idea at all what star sign I am! A clumsy, foot-in-mouth one, possibly...
Lynxxx, and good to see you. What a pretty bird. - the Icon :) not you ..oh, that you are not :)

almost as bad.... I was told about ketotifen, available in OTC eyedrops if your eyes get bad (mine do)
oh did you read about my terrible fright last night on facebook guys?
I started today, using Alaway, it's also in Zaditor and some generic brands.
night feather.
My doc recommended it--most plans don't pay for Patanol, so I'll be thrilled if this works the way it is supposed to!
no lindy, what happened?!
oh pam I hope it helps
I'll keep you posted!
i've got to find something new, cuz my old drugs aren't working so well.
a 2-3 inch centipede walked along the arm of my sofa, about 6 inches from my head!! aarrrggghhh eeeuuu
LOL
ewww, is it one of those hairy ones?
I am doing Zyrtec in the morning, benadryl in the evening, flonase, and now the Alaway... I miss Allegra....
YIKES!!! Lindy
yeah shirl, they are horrid and I am terrified of them! lol
sorry, lind!
i like allegraD, but not covered by insurance...well not enough coverage to use it regularly
well i guess the adrenaline rush must have been slimming!! lol
sorry i just coulnd't help it! btw i have fire works
I can't ise the allegra--don't want to pay for it. And, I was advised not to take the -D products--better to take the decongestant separately, in the 12- or 24-hour....
allergies must be horrendous, this cold is killing me, but it is only temporary!

Gawd, it remember the UK versions of those ads.

Off to bed soon. Have been kept up by an electricity board generator pounding at full tilt across the road. A neighbour seems to have a total power outage that they can't fix. They've gone now and still no light in sight.
ewaugh - glad you enjoyed it. Now you know why people say 'ding dong' etc.
lol ty!
y/w
mary kay?
Incidentally, the best thing for your skin (if you're not allergic to it) is the gel from the aloe vera plant. Just keep one in your house and don't cut it too often.
well if no one wants anymore clues I will say good night
yeah I guess so..
Best for your hair is coconut oil.
well good night then oods
I am clueless
mm coconut.. i'm hungry!
LOL ruru.
'Night oodles.
coconut cream pie...mmmmm

Pina Colada.
this grid is full of hidden plurals!
my grandmother used to make the best coconut cream pie
I love coconut.
I have made thousands of pina coladas in my lifetime
Indeed it is, Dan.
(used to bartend)
Are you done, Dan? If you'll pardon the expression.

Silly spelling of the seashore bird with the curved bill, dan.

Other Half was disturbed to start with by the noise, but, as a trucker, he can sleep on the slim edge of a motorway centre rail if necessary.
off to the kitchen.. duty calls...
wow..lucky guy
ty

Not so lucky partner, though, he snores like hell, and mutters, groans, giggles, chats, twitches, tooth grinds and snorts. Still love him though.
at least he doesn't fart...lol
LOL, ruru. No, that my feet kicking him when he does the things I mentioned below.
Doesn't he?
ROFL
Oh, he does... monumentally.

(cooks up a batch of kung pao chicken for jac to get even)

LOL ruru. Mind you, if I plug all the bits you've sent me stuff for, the poor guy might either explode into a million pieces or launch off to the moon.
Thanks for the laughs, ruru. Goodnight. Sleep well.
bye jac.. glad I made you laugh
hi guys, anyone want clues?
HI sandy. Not me.
hmmm, I have a choice, waste time here or do housework
How did you find tofay's grid, Sandy? I found it fairly quick and simple.
Apart from that stupid av6 spelling of the shore bird.
!
Better get the housework done, Sandy. And then come and do mine. (I have a list.):-)
it didnt show my chat which said, I found this grid better than yesterfays
I really hate dishes, vacuuming laundry etc
LOL, Sands. Yes, I know I hit the 'f' key instead of the 'd' key.
maybe I should have said 'fishes'
How about, dusting, wiping and polishing... oh, and ironing?
oh I like ironing , just never have time to do it
Only if you really hate your fish(es).
I have a steaming iron station thing
You LIKE ironing? GASP! I must tell my mother this. I inherited her aversion to that activity.
we just got a new 'ride on mower' that was this week's excitement
i'm missing an m5--i have the birds. what is the other one?
You must have a big lawn then.
we have 8 acres, and this machine 'slashes' as well
harp - plural M Lisas. (Think paintings)
thanks, that's fireworks for me!
think of the plural of leonardo's famous painting
Well done, Harp.
well done harp
Have fun with the mower, Sandy.
I might change my icon, that will give me something to do
Does the slashing mode mean it cuts brambles etc?
not really, it can clear weeds and long grasses - which makes the snake thing safer
I have no idea what the icon theme is. I suppose I should check.
me too and im going to do it now'
I can understand what that would help over there in Aus.
Ah, the theme for today is 'just too cute'. I'd better find a photo of me then. :-D
done!
I have no photos of me on our computer, I must find one
hello all babblers!!

Payton is 11 and the trips are Carter, Jackson and Grant. I call them the Presidents.
what lovely names for all of them- I presume you are in the states.
Yes...for now. :)
mag, have you played babble much?
this is my 4th grid I do believe.
I hope you enjoy it, I find this a very nice site with lots of nice people. It's almost a group therapy at times! lol
I've noticed! Yes I love it so far. :) I'm quite addicted and I've gotten my bf playing too.
Some kooks too ..
torg, not too many and it adds a bit of flavour
Like me ..
I have to go and do some work and will be back for the flip - seeya later
Yes, but too many kooks spoil the broth ..
Byeee ..
nothing wrong with kooks...i'm a crazy one :) but i like to hide it to new people
bye Sandy. see you soon.
There are also imps ..
Hello all!
With all the puns floating about maybe I should leave?
But before I change my icon I want you all to have a chance to click on it and see the Capital of Canada and a story about it
If there's anyone here
