yay anike!
I have seen it, but I don't remember if it was in Babble
YAY anike!
I take consolation in the fact that I got the 10 with little help. Amen to what grem said about it being an easy 10
I think babble is the only place I've seen it
off to find my pillow -- good night, all :)
there're two , you know...pr10's
easy as 10s go, you might say
Back to work - any help needed before I go?
not like geognosies or anything
yes, what you said, grem
can you define the gi7...without giving it away?
no idea what it means
but I shall Google it
check the ? grem
"a relatively small, quill-plucked, gut strung instrument that originated around the 13th century and came to Europe via Moorish Spain."
gi7, guitar from middle ages
As granny said
ty granny, monkey found it
that did it for me..thanks! grem and grannie
use double consonant and end with the bird
my encounters with rude drivers usually end with the bird
Back to cleaning bathrooms - my "favourite " chore
lol...GREM!!!!!!

Happy babbling
oh, what fun, anike!
I did mine last weekend...
You must be flushed with pride anike
why don't you try my way? i blow them a kiss....can't understand why they get so upset. * grin *
9 vowels, all of them on the edge - kind of rare
and hello ruru
or bowled over
better watch out for the skid marks.....
in actuality I just ignore them
hey...guess what! i pick up my new car end of this week.
machbox or tonka?
well, you said you were picking it up...
hahaha.... matchbox of course.....i'm very strong......
as opposed to taking delivery of
nope, the dealer is taking delivery, i'm taking over ownership
all play and no work is leaving my brain with endless enthusiasm
it's so new, it is coming off the ship tomorrow.
so is the driving the same as in Engl or the US...steering wheel on the right or left..?
same as england....steering wheel on the right
and so the roads are the same as Engl? drive going to on the left side and coming towards on the right?
correct, pav
odeah...remind me to hire a driver if I ever go there..
I wonder why reversals of driving sides ever started.
we couldn't be the same as Engl in any way, imho
i think the us wanted to be completely different from the english as much as possible, can't blame them really....
So it goes back to pre-automobile eras?
I believe the earliest cars had the steering wheel smack in the middle
well, consider the spelling of some words, not sure when that changed for the US
and horses pulling carts as well
Once through Lickety and 35 left. Off for a bit of apple and cheese before another try at this.
apple and cheese...yumm!
darn, jilli...now i HAVE to have some toast and vegemite
One of the earliest cars had a tiller - in the middle!
21 left here...with no list...will have ti finish tomorrow..appt first thing tomorrow..ciao mes amis...

well done, douglas
YAY helen and flosey!!!
thanks jilli
btw, flosey, your forest looks familiar -- just like what we live near.
like outside my back door
Declaring moral victory (past halfway, nbt) and wishing you all the goodness in your hearts. Good night all.
did you take that picture, flosey?
goodnight Douglas
g'night, doug

nite douglas, sleep well
I could use hints for the first two cl5/14s, please
cl same as sl5
cl***omaniac
and the other, change last letter
y*****d and y***** are two rare yc words
ty flosey (but the maniac starts with k, lol)
lol, it's late jilli
if it had been yc I might have got it, grem!
Morewords says those are the only 2 YC words
have never heard that yc word
dict. says it's archaic, guess I'm not quite there yet
want any more clues?
May I please have a clue for st7-28 the 1st? Thanks
hint for gi7?
g + pinch h***** in baseball + consonant
flosey and peach to the PB -- you were warned!
st + mr Butler in Gone with the Wind, + vowel
ty
the other just change the last vowel
ty for the st, flo
Thanks so much flosey...great cluing.
gd morning everybody. In case you were around for it, I imploded in the chog yesterday, but everything is peaceful and a detente was declared.
yw peach, and thanks
wonderful ruby
and you don't ever have to apologize here, we're all friends
hi ruby -- I missed the implosion
you are lucky! I am really embarrassed!
glad there's a detente -- don't be embarrassed!
no need to feel embarrassed, we all react when we reach an impasse
May I please have a clue for st5-14 the 2nd? Thanks
peach -- say hint, please, not cl4!
Why, jilli dear?
st5/14 is a dope ;)
actually, it's "two or more layers of flannel or other cloth soaked in hot water and applied to the skin as a counterirritant." Who knew?
st5 slant of a hill is st
Thanks so much, jilli.
yw :)
this is a very nice grid
Tanks to you too, flsoey.
ting
flo, peach wanted the 2nd one
Well, I meant thanks. lol
whoops, sorry, more coffee in the PB?
oh, sorry
sure, lots, ruby
oh, didn't see the 14!
Mr. Butler is has an h in his name. That one confused me for a bit
yes girlie, but figured the soundlike would work
sorry for the confusion
I'm just rather slow today :) Got it, thanks
hi girlie
hi rubyfoo
lol girlie, I'm half asleep
Oh, jilli, I just now found out what you ment. Teh brain isn't working at full speed....well, it's 3:00AM here, I guess it's just tired.
bedtime here, goodnight all, see you at flip tomorrow
bye flosey!
it has a right to be tired at 3 am, peach!
night flosey
3AM, haven't seen that hour in a long time
I have my days and nights turned around, rubyfoo. Where, in France are you?
near to Annecy - between Lyon and Geneva
near to Annecy - between Lyon and Geneva
sorry, there was a blip!
I would love to go to France again...I was in Paris in 1980....just loved it and the people....well, I guess the people are what makes it so great.
and I you can speak some French they are SO appreciative because at least here, nobody does!
Paris is so beautiful! But it is far from here, 4 hrs by train
that was an if*
nobody speaks English in my village
I speak only a few words, really.....just enough to get by. Are you there because of work?
no, we retired here after working in Miami
where are you in Georgia? We used to have a little factory south of Atlanta
in an icky suburb
I am in Augusta, GA. where the Masters Golf Tournament is held each year. Are you familiar with Augusta?
no, I'm afraid, only been in Atlanta and environs!! But Augusta must be much nicer!
almost half!
* * firewords * *
Yes, it is neat....I lived in CT for 7 years....came back here last year.
yay jilli!!!!
nice one :)
Congrats jilli!!!!!
much better climate in Augusta, I'll bet! CT is a lot like here, climate-wise
ty -- anyone need hints?
real winter, real spring
yes, anything for 8's, 9's or 10's
I need 5 words for half, then I can get dressed, lol
ruby, they're easy to find along the bottom half
ok, putting monkeys to work
st8 are found on churches
Oh, it is. I really didn't get out much in winter time up there. Must go to bed now....nice talking with you rubyfoo.
bye peach! sweet dreams
night (morning) peach!
jilli, I just needed the plural, duh. I had better get dressed anyway or husband will be angry
was the imposion about him, ruby?
*implosion
yes, we had a big fight, exchanged harsh words, and all because the dog escaped AGAIN and he wouldn't help me get her back, was too busy with raking spent flowers, feeding fish, etc.
he seems to get angry very easily
yes, increasingly as he gets even older! lol
sigh!
well, I should leave you to get dressed and I should get undressed and go to bed, lol!
and I just shouldn't fight back! I don't have a bad temper, but when there's a dog problem, I get very upset
of course.
lol, nice talking to you (as usual) {{jilli}}
(((ruby))) and goodnight/morning *poof*
yay, half, I can leave now!
any lurkers?
i'm lurking, off work il
ill, even
hi mva, was on before and reached half. very nice grid
very ill?
over half way but lacking concentration
I'm lurking
infection in gall bladder, very sore
sounds work-related....
oh, terrible!
hi sandy!!
are you on a fat-free diet?
didn't realise such a little bit of me could cause so much pain
not me ruby!!lol but wine is fat free!
existing on toast and marmite and water
it's an awful pain -- starts in the front then moves to your shoulder
mva that would make you feel soooo ill , sorry to here that
try vegemite, it is much nicer than marmite
it's all right if i don't stand up straight !!
mine was inflamed many many years ago and I ate no meat or fats for about 6 months, mostly sushi, and it cleared up without surgery. My mother diagnosed it over the phone!!!
oh, poor mva!!!
did you lose weight then ruby (or are you skinny anyway)
i caneat sushi, i like it, don't care for vegemite though!
the sushi regime really helped and, fortunately, I was living in NY at the time, so it was available. Here, I'd have to blow myself up!
lol, it is a very australian thing, I don't know of any foreigners that like vegemite (we in Aus are raised on it of course)
I'm skinny but lost some weight then
i've even lost the taste for tea
poor thing
what is it? sounds awful.
how about sake? nice with the sushi
where are you, mva?
what vegemite?
yes
no alcohol on antibiotics for a week, and lots of painkillers
is it good for you, vegemite, or is it just salty
Vegemite is like marmite but has a savoury taste where marmite has a sweet taste
i live in South Wales
I've never had either one, more of a butter and jam on toast gal
hmm, don't know whether it is good for you, but it would be better than jam or honey
we have friends who live near Denby, but I think that's north.....
i was thinking that i'd be a touch adventurous and toast and jam for lunch
I love jam - with cheese, with bread, with yoghurt. Mostly homemade but there is one kind in the stores that is wonderful, reines claude, green plums!!!
my favourite jam is home made fig jam
denby is much further north, we live on the welsh side of the Bristol channel
ok time to feed the animals before it gets dark
Although I grow figs, there are never enough to make jam although I love it. Have you ever had it with foie gras? It is heave (not for you, MVA)
bbl - have 47 left
aaah
bye sandyloo
see you later sandyloo, I have 60 left and won't have any more time until tonight - airport this afternoon; first of May visitors arriving in Geneva
heaven* heave is what it would make you do, MVA!
must run, see you later. I hope you feel better soon, MVA!
by ruby foo
10 minute reprieve!
I finally got the bottom i!
*poof*
i need help with both st7,28's please
a church st***** + plural
brb
l love this grid.....found both 8's & 10's and 2 of 3 9's.....
Good morning/afternoon all. Ishult, I agree, it's a fun grid.
Hello everyone
Hello lynxxx, how are you?
Very well, nicely cool, think Winter is on its way well and truly. How are you? are you airlines still grounded?
I'm well. Yes, I think they were to be grounded over some UK and Irish airspace for a period starting today. They were off yesterday for a while and then started up again. It's all quite unsettling!
Meanwhile, there are still people stranded abroad from the first disruption. I can see stowing away on ships becoming an ever more inviting prospect for some.
Soodle was very very cross about it yesterday, son was stuck in Ireland
anyone have the first se6,18?
I know. One of husband's business partners made it across to England yesterday, keeping everything crossed that he makes it back again. (Ulterior motives, he's due to work this weekend)
se6/18 - a group of six?
might be se & word for 'leave it as it was'
thanks!
is the se7 related to it?
nm - found it :)
es
es
Howdy, tc. How are you doing?
oo found all the 8's, 9's & 10's on my own. that's a first!

well done chris
Hello
hi herin
How you?
I am exhausted, had a girlfriend over for lunch , so I had to tidy up LOL
How are you?
Procrastinating
LOL that is my favourite thing to do
I have something rediculous amount of study to do
Hi, all. Herin, what do you study?
hey herin, sandy, have you tried shilly shallying?
NANCY. Hello my dear.
good morning my dear babble friends.
my dahling Herin ;)
I am studying a dual diploma. Advance Diploma of Business Legal Practice and Diploma of Business
Herin!!! Nancy!!! yay!!!
TRIFFIES
I know that song gort : my old man said follow the band (la la al) and don't shilly shally on the way (la la al)
herin, did you and primo meet up on fb in the end? I told him to friend you, but don't know if he did or not?
Ulp Herin - sounds complicated! (my job consists of putting drinks in glasses...a monkey could do it ;))
obviously I must be dislexic on those last la's
wow, sandy, is there also a hymn to lollygagging?
but not with as much style, nancy! LOL
It is complicated. I have assignments multiplying but if I want Dux i have to do it
dont know that one, gort!
perhaps you could write one
I could! lollygagging and shilly shallying
I think i have the first verse...have you seen Sandy, my gal? she likes to shilly shal; whereas Gort the dag, likes to lollygag!
hehehe gort, good one!
O yes that is right. Aussie people if you use Woolworths homeshop make sure it is the offical site
what happens if you dont, herin?
I was thinking of trying that online shopping herin, I hate shopping ! (i'm every man's dream!)
can get frauded
Good morning
hi merk
good morning merk!
No vowels in the middle, ouch!
quick question - do we know where dr. god lives? by that I mean, what is babble's country of origin?
Steer clear of this http://tinyurl.com/2f47vrq you should get a fishing warning and use this http://tinyurl.com/2edw72a
USA Trifs.
Hi Merk
thank you herin
I wondered if it was in the Central Time Zone since I do and the grid switches at our midnight.
As for where in the USA - I guess you can figure it out by the time zone babble uses
Sandy if you online shop make sure it has a lock on the website. Always have a separate account with money just for those purchases
make sense, merk, as it's one am (dread) for me here in boston
changes here in the middle of the day
herin, you are putting me off trying it!
that might be a little frustrating, sandy, yes? start a grid in the morning, but when you get back to finish it later....oh dear. new grid.
how annoying, Sandy! if I wanted to watch the flip, I'd have to get up at six. Usually I get IN at six. I'll just have to believe it happens
Sandy. I have a card just for shopping online no cash otherwise
I like it, I do some on one day and then leave a few for the next morning- anyway i'm long used to it
what about Paypal, that seems to work quite well
what "shtup" not acceptable!/
in other news - survived last night's "puberty talk" at the middle school. Tertiare was SCARLET the entire time, and one def highlight was when one of the other little girls there turned around, in full view of everyone, pointed at her mom and said "DO NOT answer any of the questions, mom!" OH, we all rolled!!!
can anyone give me a clue pls for the last 4 sts? here is one they are not: stincle
Not a fan of online shopping
lol Esprit! That's a word I hear everyday here...
I coming to live with YOU then NB!
have the last two sts st +not down+ vowel
then the plural
you'll have to squish in the bed with me and Leo I'm afraid - the two of us just about fit in this flat! ;)
thanks for those sandy
now THAT could get interesting, nancy!
Herin, I must admit to Ebay occasionally
ok, then you can come here
Trifs we had ''that talk '' with a teacher in grade 6
Not a fan of ebay Sandy
lots of absolute junk on ebay but depends on what you buy of course
ahhh, I remember the puberty talk well - eight years on and still no facial hair; I feel cheated
hah! I went to Catholic school, we NEVER had that talk
my mum gave me 'the talk' when i was 12 - she was very serious and asked 'any questions?' I thought fast, not really having a clue what she was going on about. My question: Does the queen get her period? LOL
Esprit we had the magical talk that as a girl you could say 'I have to go to the bathroom or I can't do P.E. '' no questions asked
rofl. What a moment to come in!
didn't the queen once famiously say, "we do not menstruate"?
LOL, Sandy!
what was the answer, sandy?
LOL, I was concerned that a question was expected and that was all I could think of
I love some of the other euphisms Herein: My Aunt Flo is visiting; the red army is on the march, I have "my friend", "the curse" etc
Mum got a rye grin and explained very seriously that "yes she did"
My Friend has ''George came to town'' in there house
ah Herin, how mysterious! I remember feeling very wary of girls around that time - we boys got an hour long video mainly featuring beards and hygiene. The girls were in there all day and emerged looking horrified!
I asked my mother, was it necessary to have a husband to have a baby? She said "usually". I thought for a bit and said, when I grow up I will have my baby and then get rid of the husband. (And reader, I did!)
speaking of the queen . . .
Aunt Flo came to my house
Grin Sally
I once read that one of her ladies in waiting sprinkled rose petals n the toilet before she used it, could THAT be true?
That night when I went to bed I found a pamphlet discreetly placed under my pillow
My daughter first got her period at age 10. Boy was I not ready for that.
LOL Nancy. That is a crack up, I seriously just coughed up a lung
How hilarious is all of this!!
Wow that's early.
Esprit - OMG :D I really, really want that to be true..
one does wonder what really goes on behind closed palace doors, eh?
I would have thought sprinkling rose petals afterwards might be more useful ...
it would give you a helluvafright, wouldn't it, and make you wonder what you'd eaten, if you weren't expecting them
yes, well, it was really a pretty good presentation, as such thiings go. and now, alas, I must go - work awaits! love and motrin to you all....
They probably hire a period nanny who does all the sex-ed
wipes tears from eyes, gort
although...one of the worst moments of sex education was, for me, watching the birth video. It was alright, but when we got to the end, our teacher thoughtlessly rewound it :S
ok, I saw something new and interesting if anyway wants to know
(waiting)
LOL Nancy. They need the real video's with real details on babies. I would be very suprised if any one would want one then
what could be more interesting than her majesty fertilising the rose garden erm... directly?
I'll go for something new and interesting!
ok here it is and thank you NB
best sex education i ever got was cutting the cord and catching the afterbirth and boy oh boy i have been getting an education ever since:((
NB, I used to watch birth videos at uni. The women were smiling and holding the little babies as they came out. I thought it looked a piece of cake! Did I get a shock!!!
there is a special blanket that protects one who sleeps with a person who farts in bed
it was a real video Herin! Just a real live birth. The baby came out, the baby went BACK IN, and several years later - ooh look, I'm gay ;)
oooo masterchef is starting , have to go bbl
Esprit - ?!
lol Nancy
not such a bad idea NB
it has certain material sewn into it that traps the farts before they asphyxiate the bed partner
google "better marriage blanket", you will see, there is even a funny video
Awww, Crossy! cutting the cord...the afterbirth might be a bit much for me!
"better marriage blanket" - LOL at the name!
Nancy in your pics which is leo? The one pulling the great face at the back?
I know, right? They had a couple of other cute "possibles" but that's what it's called
Ohhh, in the picture of the two guys? Leo is the one with the jacket on and his eyes closed! - drunk ;)
Heehe Cute
hahaha, the one pulling the face is our friend James!
Esprit I have to be gross here and say that farting in bed has to be one way to get room in bed
lol Herein
omg Herin, LOL
I am just thinking outside the box
mm,i envisioned leo a tad older,funny what the minds eye can think of
someone once told me "Tis a poor man who can't fart in bed with his wife"
Hi Crossie
Every cloud has a silver lining eh...
howdy herin
After you've been married for almost 39 years, what does it matter
I was just looking at that blanket. Could be useful in a zombie apocalypse.
He's just turned 25 Crossy - looks more like my age though; I thought he was when I first met him. We went for a drink and I had to pray my fake ID would work!
True Bichon
both of you look 14 lol
LOL! You wouldn't say that if you saw him - he's ridiculously tall. About a foot taller than me...
but i guess perspective gets skewed as we age
Fake Idea my parents wouldn't let me out till I was 18 with real id
at the store i find im I,D ing 28 year old for smokes
LOL Crossy! bet they love that ;)
all the ladies want my number..wife says no
Herin...my parents are lucky to know very little about what went on throughout my teens!
what a killjoy Crossy ;)
I was fairly well behaved
c lute
hello!
hi, Annie!
Has anyone here seen Pyschoville?
Hi Nancy.
lol,yes in this house everyday
brb
haha...Crossy stole my joke ;) I was going to say "I don't need to; I live in London"
No its a tv show smart arse
:)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/psychoville/
Freaking scary but hysterical
only bbc broadcasting we get here is dr who and coronation st lol

Corri St is on 7 2 here

lol Crossy - of course there is; QI! Have I Got News For You...we do a good panel show.
best tv i ever saw was in the 70,s when we had rabbit ears on the t.v and a whopping 3-4 channles
I should not be watching this show. I am going to put my self into hospital laughing so bloody hard
what is that prison series called OZ about,that looks intense
ah shoot, better go - nearly 1 already! got to eat something and get to work...later all!
tc nb
Take Care Nancy

O wonderful ANnie is there anything AUssie you would like
which one do you have, Mark?
The one that teachers sometimes give before teaching a course.
yes, herin, to hear that you got your diploma? I know I sound like a mother.
Awww Annie. I am trying
a gadget that has the clock or other function working will have been pr****. Expand on that.
I raised $120 last night for our Bail out Project. I have to write a proposal for that too
Herin, I know you are and you will do it.
thank you so much ... got it finally
Can you tell that I have not had my coffee yet this morning?
np, merk, that corner is so chock full of goodies that you can get 'pste' blind
i was bummed to realize i was out of coffee this morning
got to go, door ... back later for final 20
I would die without my coffee. I'd have to shop promptly.
bye city
bye city
morning, all -- greetings for federal disaster area, Nashville, TN :-(
my family is fine but much tragedy all around
Oh Une, are you okay?
*from
hey, annie
that's a relief une ... was wondering
Good morning all
how bad is the water in your area?
hi Mr Bob
eeth
I'm very lucky but 19 deaths in the state, 9 here in Davidson County
massive flooding of homes and downtown Nashville, including landmarks
not anyone close to you I hope
13 inches of rain in 2 days
hi all
devastation
no, no personal loss -- again, I'm soooo lucky
hello boo
worst flooding in Nashville's history
Do you need an ark?
not me, herin, but many many people have been rescuing families in personal boats, canoes, etc.
Une we have had worse in a day BUT and big BUT no one has been hurt or died
i know you have extreme weather, herin . . . big concern right now is that water processing plants are flooded and clean water supply for the city is running out
eww
if anyone is interested, youtube has tons of videos posted by folks all over the state
That really sucks
so infuriating, herin -- the mayor has been asking people to conserve water and on the the news last nite they showed carwashes still operating -- insane
Une- My thoughts are with the people of Nashville. My younger brother used to live there
thanks, DR
The pictures of the Opry make me so sad.
We only have car washes that are very sparse with water. Damn it I inhaled my hot choc
That flooded to?
i know, and there was flooding at the new Symphony, museums, etc., in addition to people's homes
Yes Herin..
carwashes (most) actually recycle about 80-90% of their water.
You know we get stuff all news
the good thing is that there's a strong community spirit here and neighbors are helping neighbors, musicians are planning benefit concerts, etc.
clue for be 9 pls
YEs, they just showed Keith URban on our news here
yep, his Skype CNN interview is online
I have given up on our news. If it is not on Yahoo.com I don't get it
That is what they showed
Our freegin google has been routed to Aus
www.tennessean.com has lots of images and videos
must run -- driving up to my mom's for the day -- back tonite -- HAGD!! bye!
Best wishes Une
be safe Une
bye Une
Ok someone shake this grid up
Hi Herin
Boo - the be9 is the same as the re9 with a different first letter
and was actually the first word i found today
ok I got it..ty
Hi Pip and Boo
se 7 was the first word that I found today
That makes sense - Hi Herin
Oh! Just got all the 9s! Hooray
boo, can you clue that se 7?
mornin babblers. :)
Hi Eva
hello EvaN
how are we this lovely Cinco de Mayo?
grid irritating
going to leave for a while and come back with refreshed eyes...maybe I can see one of the st7's...the last 2 st 7's, that is, anyone have a clue before I leave
how many St 7's are there?
st7, 32...st 7/28 x 2
I only have one st7 so far... st7chase (a kind of running race) - it's the 7/32
I have the Church, the voice and that is all i have
that's the one I have,,,need the other 2
Means: the close overlapping of statements of the subject in a fugue
But change the last letter to an eye
thanks, herin
going to take a break
And ditch the eye for an eeeeee
clue for the second cl 5
rhymes with the past tense what you do when you take a nap
or change the last letter of the 1st cl 51/4 to a cons.
Hi Word
hi herin
were is everyone?
i am here
sorta
Good Morning Babblers
me too
HI JM and Momn
Hi Mom
hiya herin and boo and jmc
don't fall over but I have just seen a designer that I would actually wear and is not icky
how are you today?
how nice herin -- but can you afford it?
go mom go!
sniggers err no
lol! still it is good to dream
okay sorry but must go now
Go? what did I miss jmc
It is nice to see fashion that isn't rediculous
with 2 kids and hanging out at ball fields - fashion is not at the top of my vocabulary right now
I have my dream wardrobe lined up when I become rich and famous :D
Momn I mean pretty skirts and jumpers things that real people would wear
that i could get into - i do need to dress for work
I wouldn't be abble to afford it
The one word in my vocab i like is Clearance
with a coupon
o that too.
Considering I have a rather fat arse according to designers there is not much out there for real woman
I prefer to call it a curvy figure.
So do i. but I am losing weight due to having a horrid cold and that i can afford to do
I am gaining by the day here - will need to get into some workout place or something now that i have my breath back
My best friends misses got asked if she is having twins. She is due in October and she is already huge :D
thats pretty rude. I hated that when I was pregnant when someone would ask if I was due soon and it was months away. Some woman pop early while others dont.
Well in her case it is fairly cute and cool as I think 2 of her co workers are also pregnant due around the same time.
So there has been baby bump comparision
when I was pregnant for my daughter, there were 13 of us pregnant at the same time in an office of 60. The big boss was in a panic.
hehe. Someone spiked the office punch
We also had alot of comparisons. it was actually fun.
I have yet to see this new bump. I am so excited
wow 3 left no list wooty
go herin go
I just listed with 26 -- thats great for me
I was rather suprised.
this is a relatively easy grid today
It is a bit mean on the small areas
and done no list just morewords. Thank you all and see you at flip
bye herin - have a great day
Bye take care
help with the last two st7's please
st+not down+ vowel, ;Mom
no, sorry, that's the last 2 st's. i'm searching for the 7's now
had that one - just need those last 7's
do you have the church tower?
yes I do
st7 - take a road but double the last letter instead of the vowel, and add a vowel at the end; switch final vowel for another st7
ty vicuna - complicated but effective
pr 10 pr plus se7
*stares blindly at grid*
pr 7 a gift
*stealth hugs everyone and leaves choclits in PB* (back later when I take an official study break)
*stares blindly at vicuna's clue*
*thinking it time to give eyes and mind a break*
pr10/91
oops meant to clue it
pr10/91 pre plus te7/36
who are you clueing the PR for Boo
just thought someone might want it
yes! mnay thanks, Boo
yw
*many*
i could do with a clue for gi7/36, if anyone's got it.
gi + double cons + you have *a**ed my trust
gi4,6 - pl + te4,4
ty Mom
my chat is slow...must be having an "off" day!
and Krysten
usually its mine that is always behind
everyone must on the net today
it's my typing that's slow, not the broadband
clue for the pr 8 please
lots of beautiful things
a book my daughter just read or slang for a plural cute
or the most cute but remove the last cons
anyone got the first se5/14
ty Mom and guernseygirl
se+steam e***ne
anyone got the first se7/28?
sorry I dont
thanks guernsey
vic,your clue melted what was left of my brain,cannot get the last 2 letters to gel
thats how I felt so gave up for later
as there are only 2 vowels down there you would think it would be ok
mine melted before I got that far - lol
i have 4 left and hit the brick wall - no huffing and puffing will blow this wall down
try st+ most of ret7/36
se7/28 se plus a bee will ****g you then add a vowel
try this...st7= think another word for road. then move the last vowel to the end of the word and dlb the last cons.
oops, don't add a vowel...hard morning here!
goodness, i'm going back to bed!
strette
oops sorry
well done Mom
*on my way*
lol
I ate all the chocolate Mom!
hope there is still choclits left from stid
oh science how could you
I was stressed.
LOL - done
st's are a pain!

Hey Crossy - did you get that
yes, ty, helped me to finish!
well done Science
Crossy must be frying bacon

howdy judi

finished. anyone need clues?
thanks Kristen
congrats guernsey
**FIREWORKS** for me too
thanks Mom and congratulations to you too
Not a bad puzzle but the last 10 were a killer for me
me too. especially the st words
I really need to get to work now - have a great day all - happy babbling
i'm going to have a few rounds of wordsplay - does anyone else play that?
I do and love that game too. Thats how I heard about this one. Been playing wordsplay for a couple years now.
No, never heard of it...I play Wordtwist though.
Do you play the 4x4 or 5 board
wordsplay's a boggle game against the clock. that's how i came to this one as well, Mom.
I havent seen you on wordsplay guernsey - do you go by the same name
4x4
i play as rachel on the 5 board
I do better on 4's but do switch to the dark side on occasion
I'm Gambit0405 (also my pogo name) and play 4 boards.
I heard about this from MNH on the chat and came in and am hooked. I play both - like the 5 better
i've been doing much better since i started babble, but the dictionaries are different
which can be annoying
I know it drives me crazy here when I try and put in a word that wordsplay accepts but this one doesn't. I'm skiz on wordsplay
i started on 5 but my scores stink - so switched to 4 months ago and can usually get into the top10
I dont find the people there as friendly. I won a couple games last week and not one person said congrats. I also cheer on the winners.
Does anyone here play on Pogo?
I know - they seem to ignore any new person that gets to the top. Same thing happened to me I tied with someone for first place and they cheered them.
i gave up on the chat for all the same reasons. must try wordtwist Krysten
I'll look for you all but need to run now. No I dont Krysten. I'll cheer you on peabody. POOF
Thanks Mom see you later
what's Pogo, Krys?
oh, ive googled it. will visit the site.
Pogo is my absolute addiction. Its an online games room for many, many games
From cards, to board games, to word games, silly games, everything!
i can see i'll have to set aside time for it.
me too. I love backgammon, word whomp and poppit.
It can be free with lots of great games or you can join the club for a fee which gives you more games and more access to game rooms.
I usually go in cycles as to which games I play. Babble helped me finish the boggle game there!
What is your pogo name kipas?
kipas6
Good morning /afternoon all. May I please have a clue for the top left corner E?
NM! Just found it myself!
Gi7/367, anyone? Got me stumped.
Oh, nm. Just monkied it. Oysh.
gi 7 ... go (texas style) + sea bird
Great cl4 ruru, thanks :)
Finally...got 'em.
clue for the last pu 5/14
my heartbeat creates my pu5
ty
Anyone need any other clues before I get back to work?
... and Fireworks!
Nope, guess not. Have a great day everyone.
Thanks for the earlier help. I got the baby to sleep and was able to finish ... fun grid.
YAY, Merk!
ty
see you in the grid tomorrow
How old is your baby,Merk
It's my grandson, 2 1/2 months old ... his Momma went back to work half days yesterday.
oh my. I bet she was glad to have a little break
I bet he is cute
No, she was not ready to go back. She nurses him and I will vouch for the fact that you have to give them some practice with a bottle before Momma leaves.
He will not starve to death because Momma is home by noon, but he cries thru the whole experience when I try to feed him.
But he's a doll.
se 7/28?
#1
se 7 the people who do the se 7/36
se7 - trend se****s
before that one boo.. i have that one
se + cons + fork prong.
thank you FM...luv ya
only fair to trade clu4 as you helped me with the gi7 :)
Fireworks! Finally!
hi all..i amcurious about ages that like to play this game...10-20...21-30..31-40..41-50..51 -60..61-70//etc.. there is no rreason..i just am curious about interests in word gae..btw..i am in the 50-60 age group..whoever is nice enought to give me some idea..i would appreciate it..I LOVE BABBLE!
darn, phone.
I'm 45 going on 29.
Hi rachel, I'am 54
lol judy!
34
*hands on hips* Well, it's true!
ty fuzzy and hawkins
hints for the top-row E or the bottom-row i?
53
way to go judy
oops judi
I am 55 but my wife says I act like a 14 year old
34
Not sure who our youngest player is. Nancyboy is 19. But we've had younger players (trolls not included of course).
I am 54
you all look so much younger..ty rur and orm..cute rur
i am 31. :)
judi..thanks for sharing..ty evan
it looks like there is no one group..! i just learned something..thanks!
We're all over the map, rachelcat . Age-wise and globally.
i LOVE that..judi
(and emotionally)
its nice to meet people with the same interest in word games
rur..i will echo that!
yes it is rachel
Yeah, it's totally cool. It's safe to say we have all U.S. states represented. Other countries include: Britain, Canada, France, Israel, etc. etc.
now i am going back to the worldly..and wordy game!!
(different kind of therapies.. group work, aa, individual counseling.. etc)
I enjoy online gameplay because most of my family quit playing word games with me years ago.
Ireland, Scotland, Wales. Forgive me if I left anyone out.
st 7?
i used to be a teacher..that involves some of the same work..(but not to the same degree..i think)
There are three St7's , ruru.
ty judi
Back again. Congrats Judi!
the last two I can't figure out
One is the tipppy top of the church.
rachel - age range for babble is from about 10 to 80+
those I have judi.. need the later ones
after the bee trouble
i think that is great..mitch..i am in the upper half myself,,i want my brain to work as long as it can
Think Italian for the last two. One sounds like elongating your muscles. The other sounds pretty much the same only ends in a different vowel.
clue for se 5/12
Plural of the se4 above it, Boo.
lol, don't we all rachel!
wink
I gotta jet. See you kids tomorrow! XX *POOF*
bye judi nice meeting you
Without the chat this would just be another word game. TTFN Judi have a good day.
not getting the st 7
which st7?
last two st 7's
s+ t4 +cons + vowel and then change the vowel for the other one ruru.
They are the same except for the last letter
my brain has had a workout for now..i am gonna watch TV..thats very passsive..have a great day all..
the last half of one of them is like the last half of the racecar driver's name mario andr****
Ah that might help ruru Ormal Bye rachel.
can anyone help with the st5 immediately preceding those 2 st 7's?
bye
What a bee or wasp might do to you.
I have one of them now
thanks, FM. I cannot believe I missed that one
ruru just change the vowel at the end for the other
*grin* lawyer, yw.
whew.. thank you
ugh.. I have seen that before and never get it
now I'm afraid to ask for help for the last word I need lest I find it to be another easy one.
Oh go for it Lawyer, ask away.
WE will happily throw fish at you if it is an easy one :)
u win, Fm...it's the last te 5/10
LOL you are so going to kich yourself
its a pl

Get another glass of wine quick

HAd a lovely mooch round a garden center this morning looking at plants and doing some homework.
Umm talked to her online a few days ago and she is suppsed to be in plaster from thigh to ankle but was still in the Scillies at that time.
I saw that on FB, when is she coming home?
I said when she gets home I will go and visit her so will let you know. Not sure re her return.
Please tell her that I have been asking about her
will do.
I think I frightened crossy away lol
Did I tell you I have extended the lease on the house where I am?
Oh that is brilliant news, I am really pleased for you as you seem to love it there, well done
I love the house and the area so have gone for a years extension :)
Would there be an option to buy at a later date?
No, I wouldn't buy here, want to head further south but as a sanctuary and revitalising place it is good.
Kiddies have arrived sorry FM I have to go, hope to be back later (((((((FM)))))))) bye for now
NP, I need to head off too, Bye Cait and see you anon :)

any clue with a witch in it is a good clue LOL
Shucks. I knew MM would get it, being a Movie man, and all...
I just wish you all could have seem me doing my Wicked Witch impression....

Oscar winning!
how come st5 the surgical drain tube is OK but not plural?
no one knows, harry
ah - this has been previously pondered
must have a latin plural or something . . .
oooh, found a 10, woot
well I'm gonna list
and the other 10, i am a goddesss 8-)
okay got two of the nine's but why can't i find the third one? geesh
the third 9 took me a bit, also
2 x R nines, and 1 x B nine-letter, Barb...
just found a fish, woot
I think the long ones are sometimes easier than the short ones
its the b one I can't see...still working on it though
As the actress said to the Bishop, eh KA
i agree kaplan and Hi to you
barb, the be9 is exactly the same as one of the re9s, excelt for the 1st letter
(oh, and, spoiler alert!) lol
that gave it to me gwen thank so much
yvw
cleared all the 8,9,10's now yeah me with help from you all :)
i still need an 8, waaaaaaaa
Which one have you got, BDG?
i have 0r8, what is the other 8?
pr8, OY
one 8 in a p and one 8 is a s
the wicked witch one
Your looking for an ST 8. Think Churches....
st and it is a plural of what sits on top of a church
ahhhhhhhh
TY, ya know i found sh**ple earlier and laughed, but missed the real st7!!
okay, gotta fly, appointment looming
bye gwen
Bye BDG
anybody have the se7 immediately after se6 (group of six)?
Think of Michaelangelo's church in the Vatican - same word, different second letter, Harry
ty sb :)
Its a bit worrying all my clues are either Church, or Witch- related ???
but they are really good clues
Yes, but what are they saying about ME? A religious-maniacal witch???
how about just a religious witch...why at the maniacal in there ;)
Thank you Barb!! : )
your welcome we would never think anything bad about you I am sure everyone here is so nice
ty for saying that Barb-I know many Wiccans and none are maniacal
including my daughter
It was just myself I was referring to as a maniac... Absolutely no offence intended.
there is nothing wrong with being a Wiccan from what i know they are very pleasant people...it is Hollywood that gave them such a bad rap..and Salem of course but then people were afraid of what they didn't know
not offended ,it's just a common fiction in our society
hi pugmama
they are just the original "tree hugers"
hi back at ya !
gosh I need to read up on some "e" words...they always stump me
DONE :)
huh. the 10s jumped out on this one.
I'm still missing one of the buggers too
congrats, harry
yeah Harry
Can anybody help me with the last two ST words - they are a St 5/14 nd a st 6/26....
yahoo harry!!!
sorry soodle not there yet
6/24 not 6/26
have st 5/14 & 6/24?
st5 = dumb and replace last 2 letters with a vowel
rhymes with teh curb you sit on in front of your apartment
it means idiot(s)
and the 6 is pl
Yay!! Thanks guys - I'd never have got that one
bye all
it took me a bit but those clues helpped me too thanks
bye harry
Bye Harry, and thanks
has anyone got the 2nd 10-91 pr please
got it
well I am off for now still 81 left bye all
13 left...need to take off for a while. I don't usually ask for clues till I'm around 10 or less...
oh-oh- 9 left.
7 left- need help soon
go Kaplan go!!!
6 left. Need 2 st7's that are not church related
taking a short break from editing a peer's papers. Wow. It's harder to do than I expected (would be easier if I didn't know her so well -- don't want to hurt feelings), and it's a great start, but not "done" yet.
brb, Lucky is apparently DESPERATE!~
st7 - start with a road, don't double vowel but do double final letter, add the extra vowel back on the end; diff final vowel for other st7
uh so you would rather her do a poor job than to hurt her feelings
that's great but I don't know the road!
oh
thank you. 3 left. There is an st4 that I still don't have, despite many monkeys
te6/18 not exam related? or sexual organ related?
bug related Kaplan
oh sorry wrong clue...
*comes bounding in at the mention of sexual organs* no, I kid. evening all
I have the fly one
Hi NB
Hello, NB.
the first te6/18 on Lickety?
hi, Kaplan, Vic :)
*looking*
st4/5, te6
st4/5 - how you get to the second floor
Duh.
and no jmc, I thought long and hard about what her essential points were, highlighted those for her, suggested eliminating redundancies, bringing together each point in a single place (rather than scattered throughout), eliminating un-necessary qualifiers and transition words, and making the paper active rather than passive voice.
(that's the short version of what I did)
Need st7/37 and te6/18 for fireworks
st7/37 that is.
I mean 36
you mean sl7/36 perhaps?
Is the te6 part of the male anatomy?
or se7/36?
I have that one. I mean, not literally...
I used to hate peer assessment Stid - just sooo awkward
need se7 and another te618
stuck on the se 5/14????
that's all i have sorry
Well, kind but effective constructive criticism is certainly a skill every teacher needs, stidmama! So good job!
What bees do, sammy's mom.
but also useful. we are good friends, so we know we can tell the truth and it will be okay. Usually... *sigh*
thanks Vi!
there. NBT. and down to 82
se7/36 is gerund ending
se7 /36 and te6/18. I guess I'll have to come back tonight.
kap... se??
hi all!...halfway through staycation and nothing to show for it...!!!
I have one of the se7's
which te6/18?
hey PAV
19 here ...off to list...
I mean I need the tee7/36. Have the st's. Sorry I get confused.
good for you! you staycate to your heart's content!!! (I will be staycating in one. more. month.)
se 5/14.. the first se
te7/36 is also a gerund ending word
need first te6/18 on Lickety list
se 5/14 - musical offering, change vowel and add pronoun to the end
Got the 7 need the te6/18 for fireworks
thanks lawyer!
se5/14 - s + beginning of what makes a car run
te 6/18 person who takes an exam
good evening all
17
stiddie!!!!!!!! *major HUGS*
SPRITE!!! *faints dead away*
Thank you lawyer. FIREWORKS!
g-g-g-ghost!!!! <--- *points to sprite and faints again*
yay Sprite! haven't seen you since I switch to Sierra!...haha , sorry!
YAY Kaplan!
yw
thank you one and all.
lol, glad to see you all
how've you been, stiddie? And you PAV?
Lawyer, could you write that upside down for me?
thanks vicuna-- that one i understood-lol
¡sʞɹoÊÇɹıɟ for Kaplan
Yes!
how ARE you? are you well? is spring there yet? are your kids wonderful? see the icon pic of my younger???
yay Kap!
*still wondering how laywer does the handstand firewords*
we've been well!
love the stidkid!
practice, stid, practice
have been ill and rotten for about 3 months, now recovering slowly - Spring is here but not fanatical yet - kids are beautiful, wonderful and a hand ful!
hugs for you and the poopies, PAV
:-D yep. groupies, and all! and now he has been asked "out" by a friend's friend who went to one of the performances... *sigh* I thought I had at least until next year before that happened!
so sorry about the illness. that is NOT good. glad about the kids.
well, it's great to have you on the mend and enjoying kids and SPring!
oh! and I have been cane-less for a month!
they are growing up, stid, they are growin gup... :)
oh wow! How wonderful, stid, am so happy for you. wtg!
and vice versa, PAV.
yep. we're on the mend. AND since you are here, I shall officially invite you (sprite, PAV, lawyer) to the official babble meetup in Olympia in August... *wishing mightily sprite could make it*
I only wish, stid! But cannot afford the journey atm.
how far from Seattle?
about an hour south, lawyer
What is the date?
I know. the "affordability" factor keeps me from running over and having a babble meetup in the netherlands, too. :-(
August 21
jmc is coming -- the date is on her schedule! and pini, and a bunch of folks from BRitish Columbia, too!!!
it figures...we arrive on the 4th and leave on the 17th
I love the crowd, I'd really wish I could attend this one.
that STINKS! are you going on a cruise, lawyer?
I'm even missing the 1 in Baltimore this weekend
*perturbed mama look*
woooot found both of the 10s without help.
I will actually be on actual vacation in August, could perhaps drive up for a mini-meet up if you wanted.
no...going to visit new grandchald who is due to arrive in June
go sprite go! (there are TENS?)
how thoughtful and nice to be invited Stid...if I'm still at my current job, most likely not a trip I can make as Juy & Aug are my busy months and I'm restricted from travelling or engaging in risky behavior, lest I become incapacitated and unable to complete our budget. I'm valuable enough for them to worry about, but not enough to pay well....
oh and all 9s. This is a first! (ok they weren't hard, I know)
that stinks too, PAV. wanted, but not "valued" (are you a teacher? rofl)
they should really reward you better then, PAV!
I'm the lowest paid CFO in AZgov't...
Arizona??? gah. in AUGUST? (double gah)
down to 60.
oooh! I found the african fly!
how nice, lawyer, about the grandbabe
I don't have ANY 9s. or 10s. *sigh*
wtg stiddie :) Now slap it!
Arizona...land of the immigrant
they are all gerunds
didn't realize you were so venerable, lawyer! what a wonderful reason to travel!
I will keep on the burner a day trip perhaps, fly in and back, if I should also be handsomely rewarded
LOL sprite!
it's number 10....number 11 is due in Oct., but that's a local product
if I were there, I'd hug you personally, PAV
yes, all my friends are invited to visit us here in AZ...bring your guns, no permits required for concealed weapons, but don't forget your ID and birth certificate, and English translator
??? 11 grandbabies? wow... that's a lot of birthday cards!
wow, 10 so far, you are rich, lawyer
si, Pav
no hablo stupidese, PAV. I can't even THINK of going somewhere that mean-spirited.
that's why I stay out of court, stid
yep. me too. (hides from mean people)
yes, so my eldest sis calls me the weekend after the legis was signed and asked if I was safe? we were born and raised in MI, though I do have a "green card" (my certif of LIVE birth)
my concern is based on family history... the way the fascists got it all started in Europe. Very scary. Very very very scary.
My 2 eldest kids were born in Canada. I am warning them to avoid AZ
yep...we're the second coming of Nazi-ism ,evidently...I tell peeps not come if you can;t stand the heat...used to be a kitchen joke...
part of me wants to be crazy and go down there without any identification, and refuse to speak English -- french, spanish, german... but not English. And see what they do. But since I look northern European...
but then, I am a wimp. and I don't have the time or the money right now. But I am really that angry.
Just wait until I sell all of my AZ real estate holdings. That will bring their economy down!
LOL lawyer! that would work. for now, I will just not purchase things that are made in Arizona.
which is not good for you, PAV, of course. The problem, with boycotts is that innocent people are hurt first.
and I won't vote for McCain
years ago, here in my own condo complex, where I am on the HOA board, I was called a "wetback wannabe' because of my 'relaxed' dressing on my days off...I thanked them and told them to keep their pets leashed at all times and went about my business...they eventually moved
have I missed something big? ...what's happening in AZ?
I haven't voted for McCain yet...
wow. I can't even imagine being treated that way. I would have found some rattlesnake poop and put it through their mailslot...
hiya Nancy Boy :)
hey NB. they're being mean to people.
u better stay away from there, NB
u r a ferener
oooh! down to 55! listless! but still no 9s or 10s.
Boy, you've missed th news? AZ passed a STATE law making it "illegal to be in the country illegally"
*mwah**mwah* for Stid and Sprite ;)
stiddie, go go gooooo
lol Lawyer. I'm a foreigner here!
wow, Pav - why?!
but not on babble you aren't, Nancy Boy
and I emphasized the STATE because immigration is a federal purview...
NB...you must be the original man without a country
*sends hugs to Leo, too*
got that Sprite ;)
and hi to Leo, indeed
Nancy Boy, you -- and PAV -- and all of us -- ought to be considered at home where you are. As a protest to the essentialization of people, I refuse to answer the census "race" question with anything but "human."
we have too many idiots who feel the immigrants have taken over and the feds can't/won't control our border
yayyyy for stiddie!
I guess so, Lawyer. I'm not English but I'm definitely not Korean, especially now that I don't have any family connections there anymore. I never thought about this! I'm drifting around on this huge planet!
and there are federal laws that are enforceable. The Arizona law just goes too far in my opinion, making it a requirement for police officers (not federal agents) to report and arrest people they "suspect" to be in the U.S. without permission.
born: yes / sex: selective but intensive / race: human
Well, stid, there are those who say I am not a member of that race
NB - you a re at home where your heart is...that applies to me as well, Since my younger bro banished me from my home in Albuq...but never fear, he have his come uppance one of these days...
except for one small slice of my heritage, I am not native to the United States... and because I am a "mutt" I don't belong anywhere else either.
*reaches out and pulls Nancy Boy right into Babble land*
PAV, and Nancy Boy, and everyone: you are all my kin, and you are all welcome here. Just not all at once (please) *eyes 10x12 foot living room sadly*
true that, Pav...well, we people banished from our homes must stick together :)
10x12 ? that's two bedrooms and a dinette!!!
*seconds stid*
and with that, I must return my kinship with the students of the world and get back to work... *sigh*
except in summer -- if it's not raining, our acre might be enough to hold a decent party!
go for it, stiddie, and *hugs* to you
thanks Stid!...I'll keep Aug date on the calndar just in case
(((((sprite))))) be well, be excellent, be happy. my thoughts are with you every day, that you will soon be painfree and able to get around in comfort.
aw thanks stid!
see you-all again soon I hope -- and if you think you might want to come in August, send me an email at some point (in profile) so I can keep you up to date on venue
*poof*
bye, Stid!

aaaand Leo's home. Looks like I'm off too! Bye :)
and counting! Go PAV!
ciao NB
enjoy Leo, Nancy Boy ;)

lol I'd hate to leave you to your house chores, but I just found some pu words I couldn't spot... nothing to ask now :(
drat! well, since the dogs aren't helping either - sleeping is their life's work - I should clean the kitchen,,to make room for more messes tomorrow...
that is a noble thing to do. And you should be cuddling the poopies from me for about half an hour, of course.
will do Sprite...don't be a stranger! we've missed you!
thanks PAV, and I you. One more word to fireworks

How can there be 21 P's?! How is the grid today?
It's a really good grid Gadget
hi bichon and Pav and gadget
clue for st 7
hi all
it starts out w/the 1st 4 letters of your location, then add a double consonant and finish w/a vowel
change the vowel for another one.
ty those are strange words
I just figured out your clues, Gramma. I am looking at the grid for the first time today so had to get familiar.
Hi Scrabbler
Hi Boobear. How is your day going?
great and yours
i have 2 to go
I am volunteering at the cancer ctr now--on a little break. Will check Surgical Waiting Room in 20 min then go home. Toothache has been bothering me since last evening and I will see dentist in 24 hrs.
91 to go and not seeing much.
clue for the first st 5/14
what a bee does when it lands on you Boo

Hi Trezz
Hi Trezz

Hi Jazzy
Yes, this is a sneaky grid. 73 to go for me.
Hi Scrabbs. Sorry to see you have toothache. My easter was ruined with one. Got the blasted thing extracted last week. Good riddance.
teep
hi all again
sorry guys wrong box
Hi Boo, and Bye Boo, and to all babblers I haven't met before - HI!
This pain, when it intensifies and throbs, is so agitating. I will see dentist in 23 hrs.
Hi Barb
I recall your toothache, Soodle. Was tooth infected?
that is okay Jazzy we all do it at one time or another, except for me I do it all the time
Hi BH
silly jazz
it wasnt even a word though, so jokes on me! haha
:)
It sure was Scrabbs. A course of antibiotics cured the infection. the dentist said he could save the tooth for approx €1,800, or extract it for €80, so I said Bye bye tooth!
This is a big molar so I cannot say goodbye to it. I hope it can be fixed simply, if it caused by a cracked filling or tooth or cavity. I hope I do not need a root canal and crown= mega-bucks!
Morning all
Hi Lynxxx. Just waking up? How is Thursday?
Hey Lynn.

YAY wild! *waves adieu&
Hi everyone. Can anyone clue my last word please? the second st 5,10
hey bugs!
Hey stid. How goes school today?
st5.10 medical procedure/thing for heart
BBL need to walk Stew
no school today. week "off" for teaching, except I can't teach because they are te7 at the school I go to. So I have to teach in two more weeks. Which means I spent today revising lesson plans for final approval by the classroom teacher, and peer editing a friend's philosophy paper.
later lynxxx
how about you, bugs?
Firewords! prayers and good vibes needed around the babble globe tomorrow - baby2bit is on her way!
YAY dan!!!! ((((((many hugs for dan and mrs dan)))))
*and gentle kisses for baby dan*
will you tweet when the baby gets here?
HURRAY for baby 2bit! I hope she has a gentle coming into the world and fills your heart with love
sorry stid, babies always distract me. they are soo much fun and snuggle so well
Anyhow, I had a good day today because my student was away. Yesterday he was miserable and today he was sick so I guess there is a correlation between attitude and illness.
you are all in my heart. My first was a long labor, the second very short. I hope mrs dan will have a (relatively) pleasant and easy labor. Expect her to be a bit grumpy in the process....
oh gee, bugs, that's too bad for the kid, but glad you had a quieter day. I am not a terrific student when I am ill, either.
I gave my notice that I would not be able to work with him again next year because I am burning out. I feel so much better for having said it.
GOOD FOR YOU bugs! *proud mama look* better for you both to not get into a burned out situation.
down to 30 listless!
oooooh. got the last 9. Now need some 10s apparently.
thanks stid. I have been agonizing over it for months but he is SO needy and his family is not at all supportive of anything we do for him. I can't continue to be undermined daily and he has met all of the goals I set for him last year.
He doesn't know yet that I won't be his worker next year but I want to wait until they have someone else lined up.
Off to move dirt now. Happy Babbling everyone. Poof
later bugs!
any facebook savvy follks around?
what's up TO? not sure I can help
but will try
dan still here?
still here (ish)
if one unfriends someone, does the unfriend receive notice?
hey dan, and happy birthday to button!
I don't think so TO, but relations you unrelate do.
thanks!
YES! got a TEN!
are you rsure?
I can't be completely sure, I just know that when I unrelated Tom today it said he would be notified of the change... rofl. Won't he be surprised!
i will post/tweet the good news, but somehow I don't think I'll make it to tomorrow's grid :-)
but I have had "friends" no longer show up on my list without any notice ot me.
:-D that is such a happy reason to not babble... I think we can forgive you! LOL
stid you were unfirended?
I think so... at least there are names that get suggested to me that I know I friended once but aren't there any more.
dan all the best to you two
are you going to unfriend me and don't want me to be upset???? *worried mama look* *wicked mama look*
but I am seriously thinking of dropping facebook (don't go there much anymore anyway)...
well then if they don't know, where's the fun in that?
though it might work just as well to just stop the tweets going through to facebook.
rofl TO!!!!
there. down to 20 listless. want to spend a little more time writing before I take the stidkid to trombone lesson.
18.... *sigh*
heading out. **hugs and choclits for all** be well, back later to finish! *Poof*
bye

i enjoy my customers and bugging the heck out of my guys
haha maybe they need a break from me then
Fireworks here. Thanks for all the help. See y'all at the flip.

Well....Joanne, I am indeed not working tomorrow no matter waht.
looking for job??
No, I just have the day off.
nice
yes, I am very very happy to have the day off!
i'm using my vacation time
well, if you can use it, I say use it. I am not really a huge fan of work!
just bought 3 tickets to one of our cancer lotteries...crossing fingers
i love my job , just hate the polotics of it
what on earth is a Cancer Lottery?
politics too
in Canada they have a lottery where you can win houses cars etc.. and procedes go to cancer research
like they haven't found a cure already
ahh Ok. Our lottery attempts to support our schools.
hi folks
4 away from finishing if I could get some help. 1st se6/18 please?
hi ya welk
Welki hello!
se and st4/4
hi Welki & Hawk
the lotteries joanne is talking about are private fundraisers, put on by hospitals, research orgs, and fraternal orders (like kinsmen, legion, etc)
hawk, it is the last 6 lines of a poem.
we have govt run lotteries too, provincial and national, but boyhowdy, i've yet to find out where the money goes
welk i wasn't going to do it this time but a pop-up flashed on my comp at work ...and i went and did it
it does go to a good cause Joanne!
we buy one every year for our hospital
i hope
boyhowdy?!
""blush"" i bought 3
Our schools seem to still have no funding. despit ehte lottery.
yes lynxxx ... as in 'yeehaw,' 'good gravy' and 'as i live and breathe'
red up here they are having a lunch day to raise money every other week
good on you, joanne :) i spread the love between causes .. at $100 a pop, and even at 3 for $250, i still can't make my hand sign the credit card slip
wow - that IS expensive
lol
woweee, that is a kind thing to do. our tickets are like 2.00 USD.
i called it in but i did at least win a 100 dollar card for the brick
our health care systems need all the cash tranfusions they can get ... to rely on the govt is dicey, hospitals have been forced to sponsor these lotteries for new equipment and research money. sad, isn't it
that was the first and last time i won hehe
not really Sad, Welki, thats pretty much how Hospitals raise cash here too...
ohhh welk hubby taking father in law to treatments that were 4 months overdue, he has terminal cancer
<-- would make a great philanthropist, if not for the lack of money *lol*
very funny welki, not at all funny, Joanne.
here, it's like, if they can't make money off the aging then you are of no use to them
*signs up for Welki's philanthropy list*
aw no, joanne. you know i lost my stepdad last month to liver cancer? it's a tough time ahead, joanne
I can not believe....that there are 21 P words.
you're a rich man, ruru ... send ME a cheque
??? rich???
I am a working slob...
i know and feel selfish for hating hubby leaving for days but we are joined at the hip but it's his dad and being a good son
you dont actually hate him, you just miss him.
here here ruru
(guessing that shopping for pants for the two of you joanne is quite an adventure)
no hating that he leaves red lol
you sound like my husband, joanne. it was hell for him when i was gone taking care of things for my mother
being joined and the hips
lol ruru
welk but did you understand the frustration??
my wife says to me after trips..."oh I am so glad you are home:.. twenty minutes later... "when are you leaving again?"
we simply should not be apart from each other (and that's a good thing)
thanks redturtle- sorry I disappeared for a few minutes
oh yes .. from both sides, since he (a while ago) had to go take care of his parents
you are veyr welcome Hawk.
lol and that's what he said to me about my dad
how about the final 3 st's (there's a 7,6, and 5)
I think you are looking for church structures. Maybe.
2 st7.28 that are different by the last vowel only
*closing eyes, since she just started the grid*
thanks!
st5.14 st***ndous is really amazing or big
thanks again!
fireworks! thanks for your help
now off to bed
wow .. i think there's 4" of snow on the deck. gotta love springtime in alberta
congrats Hawk - night
welki....that is just too much.
wtg hawk nite
lol welk i heard there was still snow falling out there :P
gi7?
can't complain, the farmers need it. made for an interesting drive this morning, though ... roads were skating rinks
gi & sea bird - double the birds 1st letter
thx lynxx
And I found one ten by meself! whoo hoo.
anyone no about dogs??
wtg red!!
probably have over 100 years dog owners' experience in ruru, red and myself
maybe Jo
what about them, Lynnxxx is knowledgabel
pr what labists do before selling
ohh, and lynxx ... oops, sorry! (and maybe jess will show up .. a vet)
wassup with dogs'?
joanne is speaking in tongues
and pr what you do with crockpot when you leave for work
dogs are great fun.
but very furry lately.
my house is very furry lately
what's a labist? sounds a little risque
we just leave the vaccuum cleaners on at our house pulling in all the hair
teulu grew a second coat this year, unlike last year, and now he is shedding, and shedding it. I have been combing him daily and could stuff a pillow....
what do you need to know about dogs?
there isn't a dyson big enough, ru
ok i have 2 beagles, one 13 and not fixed and one 41/2 and fixed. well the old guy is going after the young one, but then i catch the young one trying to hump the old guys head???
<---- knows dogs
we bought one of those furminators ... takes a ton of hair down
it is not a sexual thing Joanne, it is a Dominance thing.
they are trying to assert Alpha joanne
there are rubber grooming gloves with lots of little round nipples on them that are great for grooming short haired dogs (and horses!) but are also fantastic for getting rid of fur covered clothing and furniture etc
one is trying to be boss
true, joanne .. that's what i do to my husband when i'm feeling dominant
the old one just started doing this for the first time ever and panting heavily too
that sounds kinky
I got one of those grooming gloves Lynnxx, did not work well for teulu but it could have been the brand.
stressed
omg... i no what it is now!!
lynxx, here we go to the DIY store and buy rubberized worker's gloved .. cotton knit with rubber soles at $4.00 a pair
tyty
rubber palms
what?
st7 after the bee hurt?
ok, 42 left...I think I need to simply get the list.
well with hubby gone since the old guy is his buddy, he's taking his place and showing who's next in charge
st 7/28 is anagram of road with an extra cross letter
I would separate the two of them for a bit if you can joanne and take them on walks together to adjust
st & Tou*****s disease which involves a lot of involuntary swearing
2nd st 7/28 is same word,ends with a different vowel
i actually had to send the young one upstairs and put a chair in front of the stairs so the older one couldn't get up there
thx lynxx
Maybe the vet could help with some medication?
didn't *get* your clue min, until after i got the word
i think i need medication lol
i'll have whatever you're having :)
driving me crazy
Bye everyone, gotta go
bye lynxx
well ready to get into the wine,rem martain,with that spelling (i don't drink) or shots of liquer lol

Can't figure it out MNH or else they are the ones I already have.Guess I'll just skip the fireworks tonight. By the way, MNH -- you are the reason I got so addicted to this game--you mentioned it on Wordsplay and I have been at this ever since!!
and friends call me jo nite

there is an outback up there?
oh gitel - thanks - dont give up - what word do you need - I will try again
there are multiple outback steakhouses around. one is walking distance from my home, but we were at the one in Woodbridge, VA, as the rest of the family lives there
The pr7/32 time is 10:39. I have just ig6/24 my FWs so here is my story of cl5/14 for today.I hope you're good sl 7/36 when finding the words.Today I started my second as a te 6/18. Students in New York state started their second week of te 7/36.Last week the students had the ELA, this week they take the math te 4/4.Te 6/18s are tired of getting ready for these te5/10. Some of them are starting to pu 4/6 over all the te 4/4 prep. In February they were all pr7/32ed and took a pr7/32 to see how they were doing. They didn't do well then so I hope they do better this time Teachers told the students if they got a good night's re4/4 and they tried their be4/6,then that's all that matters.Some students get so nervous that their pu 5/14 starts to rae. Te 7/36 pu 4/6 some students in a bad mood & they start to re6/18 school. I te4/4ed 6th grade.At one point the fire alarm went off & the students le4/5 out of their seats.It turned out to be a false alarm.Te7/36 also effects teachers. I haven't sl5/12 much either because of the te5/10s.But I try not to be too st 5/10 with students because they're under enough pressure. After this week, te 7/36 will be over 'til they have to be re6/18 again next Spring But te4/4 prep will start again in Se4/5ember.I hope this story gave you a cl 4/6 about words in the grid. I am going to go jump into my sh5/12 & watch tv for the re4/4 of the ni 4/4 with my two pe 4/5. Adios all!
first re6/19 please
there goes Min -dont you just love her!
i think of them as burb places, not in the city
re 6/18 is re plus ready *** go! suefrad625 & hi there
OK last stab at it: se5/14 and te6/18 I already have the ones you clued. THX

ping! long time!!!
te + exam + vowel plural or mens parts
hi kje!

te + exam+ double vowel (need to go up for this one)
crazy crazy but healthy
I miss being in the city - prior to DC i lived for a while in Boston.
do ing too much
how are you guys, kje and dc?
hey all
Goodnight to my fellow babblers!I'll see you tomorrow
Night all. Thanks for the fun!

gn min!
Good night Gitel - see you tomorrow
well, ty. i have some good job leads finally, and am hoping for something soonish.
g'night gitel
Did I hear Boston - almost my neck of the woods
Good night Miin
93/94 i lived in northern Dorchester, near JFK/UMASS (nee Columbia) station on the red line
Upham's Corner is name of neighborhood
g'night min
*holding fingers up in a cross*
*looks round wondering why*
dont know that neighborhood but have been to bad areas in Dorchester my mistake
ah, yes. i lived in okay area. just south of me a few blocks around Fields Corner was SCARY
by mistake - Boston is one of those areas of bad/good, bad/good
even by DC standards
though not as scary as Southie
being from the south, i'm used to alternate blocks being good/bad
Thanks Min. got them.
good friend lived in Jamaica Plain while going to northeastern - couldnt believe it was considered a good area
JP is rather nice
I am a country girl from New Hampshire - not used to those urban areas
well, it's near the zoo.. and that's nice
were i still there, i'd be in Cambridge, Somerville, or Arlington, i think
LOL doren. good point
some of it is - I went to visit with my friend - think I was glued to her side with keys between my fingers - whatever good that would have done
dc, that is where i was this weekend... one son in cambridge,the other in somerville and my sister in arlington!
ts 6/18 pls?
Cambridge is very nice - I have never been to Arlington or Somerville (other than driving through on interstate)
think of a fly sixty
ty mom
dorens did they have to boil their water?
I guess I need to get out more
arlinton and somerville did, west... luckily i was staying in cambridge and they have their own water supply
bad water main break
1st se6/18?
its now the witching hour so need to go - good night all
hope it's over soon
we had lots of water main breaks over the horrible winter here
a red dog kje
g'night momneeds
arlington is very pretty mom... spy pond. monotomy rock.. and has cute shops too. and somerville is more mixed, but davis square is so great and it is actually in somerville, not cambridge
I used to live in JP. Parts of it are nice. I was alone and single when I lived there. I wouldn't leave my apartment unlocked or anything in my car, but if you are smart it is a nice place to live. There are some great restaurants there also!
night momn
se + st4/4

hi West, Dorens
someone posted on FB that she'd be on vacation and her house was robbed...well, DUH
hey sandy how are you?
bak
congrats, sue
yay sue !!
everything is fine and you?
why would one post of vacation on FB? that's silly
hi' sandy
hi seain my thoughts exactly now the media is warning others...
i think i want some ice cream. Mint chip anyone? no food colour.
I am having a good night sandy..following the best weather we'll have this year
I'd rather have mocha almond fudge but sure I'll take some mint chip
delayed thanks for the pr6, even if it was a silly request. fireworks and sleep. see y'all tomorrow
seain there is a shopping center in Reston with an ice skating rink or used to be do you know it?
Yay Dorens !!
woohoo!!!
I am eating hot wings... and they are hot!!!
man, prob a bad idea this late at night
Reston Town Center, yes West, i live 1 block east of it
did you see Nightline the other night? Someone ate wings so hot he said his stomach burned for a week
I found a little alligator in the street I still have it
it was plastic
oh, good, west :)
well... these aren't THAT hot - LOL
can't you just see the headlines now?
I had buffalo wings one time..my mouth was numb never again
I'm a wimp
this is def burning... which means i am drinking a lot
Alligators Overrun Newport - Toy Dogs Disappear
so if the heartburn doesn't keep me up, the running to the bathroom likely will
beer i hope, kje?
diet coke
I decorated the house for Cinco de Mayo and had a great Mexican Fiesta planned and husband went to Maine
carbs help neutralize the spice - diet has no carbs
once a year I am a Chicana
I've heard milk is good too
well... i have no beer (cuz i don't like beer much)
salty food - potato or corn chips would help, too
or rice or potatoes
actually, no great proof that is anything is better than another... the solution is dilution!
water does not help, actually
it is a good burn for now... I'll press on - LOL
I have st8 may I have stats for the other 8 please?
pr8/45
thanks
think of wicked witch of the west lines, west
FW!!!

hello stid

community theater is usually cheap and fun... so little risk

moon - there was one in the window of the VA Lottery office, then a friend on the phone mentioned her half-moon scar, which took my brain to man in the moon, to Manny Moon's - a former italian restaurant in Woodbridge, VA, then Moon Over Buffalo/Miami...

i think i shall try my way first but thanks
haven't seen her in weeks, so i don't know, une
west, it's tragic for so many . . .
a little bit, seain. nothing in 20 years to speak of, but it was my passion when I was an undergrad.
tx, seain, been thinking about her -- they had it bad there too
hoot was on a week or so ago, but of course that doesn't help us know how she is today. I wonder if Woulf knows?
great pic of stidkid2, stiddy!!

I must away bbs
yep, that's me, PROUD!

firewords

Anyone around to help with the two st 7/28s?
they are the same with a different ending each
just thinking of a clue
I'll wait. :)
think st+++ch limo + **a for two and two for **a
try that anyway and if you can't get it I will try again
Got it! Thanks
And the other one!
the last bit could be something you hit a golfball off
the other one has a different vowel ending
**p up the teapot to pour tea
Just need to find four more words. (Up much too late, but waiting a phone call about grandbabies coming. Water has broken!)
how exciting - need any clues
Sure! 1st re 6/18 and 7/28?
Make that Se, not Re
Oh, and first re6/18.
think of a group of 6
Recap: 1st re6/18, 1st se6/18, 1st se7/28.
Got the se6!
next is the same but think of the ending as the same as the chapel michaelangelo painted
Got it!
re 6 is the plural of the one above it
or is it the one above which is the same as the re5 and add a consonant before the last letter
I'm looking for the re6 right after the re4/6, please
that is 'have you **** the letter
D'oh. thanks
re + give your con**** to the marriage
anymore?
And my last word was se5/14. Thanks so much!
Now, when is that phone gonna ring? I told the kids that the babies needed to born my midnight tonight (CST) in order to share our wedding anniversary date.
se + in the jungle you could catch d**** fever
how many babies are about to be born?
Two. Estimated that they will weigh around 4 pounds, since they are only a bit over 32 weeks along.
do you have fireworks yet?
Yes, the fireworks are going
ooh how exciting , i'm sure they will be fine
Well, I should sign off of here. Thanks for the assistance.
I have no grandies, but I live in hope (I have 4 kids)
yw
good luck
Thanks! **poof**
