lol pini, that was the first word I tried
Lickety put up the list at 12:04, I just checked - it's up
yours is sweet, flosey
what's the icon theme today?
didn't mean there wasn't a list...i just haven't looked at it yet
pets or animals -- you can always check my profile to see the theme, pini, as I keep telling people
sorry, jilli...will do! :)
there is a wi that goes with ghosts

Koda, however, is getting in the way of my keyboard!
gh+ a heroic person with an extra vowell
got it ;)
dw 6 called?
I don't know, ru...but looking now
I have it.. you can ddddddrink it
thanks ru, not surprising you found it
thx ru! :) shoulda known! :)
I have a nose for that flosey.. ya know
I would expect so ru
ru...how's Lil' D taking the noises outside?
pini -- how did the outing go with Koda?
we had the TV up.. lots of fireworks over this way
the 3 or so minutes was enough for him...
he's back in my lap again...
di7 X 2?
called?
nice safe lap
thanks again ru, got them
brb - going for jammies
OMG...i didn't think i could find the 9 withouth help! :D
di 7 x 3 one not related to other tw
wtg Cath
gj cath!
lol...helped i guess that part of my name is in it. LOL
on that note, i'd best get to bed...3 a.m. here and a busy day ahead....177 left. g'nite all! :)
what does the 9 begin with?
ty Cath, found the 9
ca ruru...think of a church
ca9
got it
g'night cath, nice to see you!
don't forget the ca 8 as well
ty for the 9, cath!
thx cath
g'nite jilli! :D I'll be back more often...can't wait to see the new grid! :)
I just hope there's a Lickety Add type of box in the new grid.
bye bye all! :) zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.......
me, too, jilli
g'night Cathy
I'm glad Lickety added his "expert" suggestions! :)
did he? Oh good!
can't find the ca8 though
like the type one word = list; type more = chog
drop the last letter of the 9, flosey
and colors, too, for when you try a word (green, yellow, red)
oh, thanks jilli
that's what I hoped, pini
I think including Lickety's quirks into the new design would be awesome!
I also hope there will be a link to morewords and a2z
need a cup of tea, brb
and a place for his list, of course.
of course!
but hideable if desired
right?
I don't quite understand the clues in the letters thing.
me either...I'm curious to see what kind of "clues" they'll be
indeed, pini, hideable if desired.
(perhaps openable after the first hour)
just a thought
oh no -- I use it as soon as it appears
oh, sorry, didn't realize...
we all have our own preferences about the list and I don't think anyone should be deprived.
good point
thus "just a thought"
well, actually, I wait until after nbt.
I try to wait for nbt, 1/2-way, and nbs
but time allowances can change those goals...
chacun à son goût
huh?
"to each his own"?
absolutely -- and the quality of the grid -- if it's full of unwords I'm not going to bash my head against an incomprehensible wall and waste time.
so true!
yes, "each to his own taste", more literally.
wow, took a wild guess and got oh so close! :)
wtg pini, lol!
I may become a linguist after all!! ROFL!
So, Aberdeen, jilli...what clan are ya from? I'm from the Murray Clan.
more likely a linguini first
no doubt, ru! * giggle *
Murray of Atholl here, cousin! Murray is my maiden name.
Clans are good with Linguini pini
OMG! Jilli...we may just be cousins! :)
ru, you silly boy!
LOLOL
go away, ruru, lol!
are you Atholl too, or Tullibardane?
<-- also of Murray of Atholl
(if my genealogy is correctly done)
Holy mackerel, pini!
this is gettin' pretty scarey, jilli!!! :)
Firth Fortune and Fill the Fetters
(in a good way, of course)
Good grief - cousins, at least. Anyone out there named Rita??
Hi Christine...no Rita's in my tree
Jilli, you're going to make me go try and get my other laptop (strictly for genealogy) working so I can look!!!
a long line of meter maids ..
Jilli, do you know if you have kin in the Seattle area?
(in the least, I'll bring it to our Aug meet up)
(if you're interested, of course)
Only you, pini. No close Murrays this side of the Atlantic, although another Atholl came in to the library one summer day -- a visitor from elsewhere I'd never met and never saw again.
hmmm...I have Murray cousins in Seattle area...
Jillibus - I think that's Furth, Fortune ...
My Aberdonian grandparents went to China as missionaries and ended up In Bristol, England.
Jillibus - I think that's Furth, Fortune ...
I am trying to make my firth fortune
coudl be, Christin -- I'll check my badge...
gotcha, I'll see what I can find; we MUST be related in some fashion...right?
Sorry, bloomin' gremlins are in my laptop, yet again.
My former husband had Murrays in the background, and I vaguely remember seeing the motto, at his parent's house.
Yes, Christine -- "Furth Fortune..." Are you a Murray too?
If my memory serves me, I believe it was James Murray m. Susannah Davidson Middleton (both born in Aberdeen)
Nah, I was a Rita, now I'm a Ramsey.
but will have to look to confirm
my grands were David Simpson Murray and Emma Milne. We think the Simpson was a later addition -- a tribute to a benefactor.
can't wait to "investigate"
David S Murray was born in 10 Canal Street and a friend took a picture of it a few years ago -- a stone row house.
I'd wear my kilt to the get-together if it weren't in August!
If I ever get to go overseas again, my next goal is the British Isles (specifically Scotland)
I've never been to Scotland
Is your tartan green with red, gold and white?
I haven't either, but want to go really bad!
no -- like Black Watch with a red line.
black watch?
although the antique one is a lighter blue.
anyone have the te 7/40?
the Black Watch is famous British (and Canadian regiment)
You could do some goggling, pini
yes, ru, sometimes I feel a little te7 in the head
haven't got to the Ts yet, ruru
ahhhh, I need to learn more...will check our family plaid to see exactly what it is
tartan, please, pini
of course ;)
sorry, I digressed :)
pini, I'll post it here in a minute...temporarily
I'll see if I can find a sample of mine
brb
not getting that flosey
a little fuzzy, disordered
put a t in front of the et 6
it would normally be tou
ah, great clue dart
oh.. got it.. thanks dart and flosey
Murray of Atholl tartan posted
<doesn't speak texan
flosey -- ty for the te7, lol!
lol ru,
pini, yours must be the same as mine if you are Murray of Atholl.
yw jilli
It looks like what I remember my gma having!
fireworks
37 words to go but have hair appt so will have to finish later - happy babbling
wtg dart
well done, anike
YAY dart!!!
wtg dart, and well done anike
I really like this tartan.
me, too...
The Tullibardine one is much gaudier -- red background.
Ours is definitely the green
Well, of course!
I'd better go back to my goldfinch now ;)
thx for posting it for a few moments, jilli ;)
yw, cousin ;)
* smile *
...and with such a nice end to my day, I bid you all g'night! (thx CuzJilli)
Does anyone know the definition of gh6/27? I have the word, but there's nothing in dictionary.com
google has a meaning for it, Christine -- it's East Indian
Oh thanks, I'll go to google.

4 more to 100 left.
I'm plodding along at half way
I'm not even close to halfway -- but then there was a bit of a distraction with pini! And kitchen stuff.
97 for the morning.. night all..
g'night ru
night ruru -- great job!
very interesting distraction, jilli
toodles
yes indeed!
for a big grid, this is hard, imho
I agree jilli
oh good, it's not just me.
not a lot of convenient endings
ed, er, es doesn't happen as often as one might hope
and no ing or est and only one S
yes, darn
well I tried "redie", which is about as sensible as many of enables re words.
no ier either
lol
just monkeyed a sh6, new to me
just getting to the sh words
I'm going backwards
I guess it's the first sh6/21? The sh6/24 is normal.
yes, sh6/21
I'll have to put the monkys to work for that
see -- can't even spell monkey (sleepy)
ok, I give up -- clue for sh6/21 please?
sh - same first 4 as next word, plus I r** all the way home
ty flosey -- never saw that before either
aircraft signals
I guess dart would know
he works with aircraft? pilot?
traffic controller
ah, sure have to be wide awake for that one
and he seems to have crazy hours which change a lot -- don't know how anyone does that job.
no, switching hours would be difficult
I can't find the last ra5, do you have it?
no, sorry
and why can't one reditch?
ask enable!
can't redictate either
no, but thanks for di7
yw, lol!
hi Flosey & Jilli. Is it the ra & not lose you are after?
I guess that was naughty but I think we're alooone
oh no we're not -- hi lun!
*lyn -- and thanks for the ra5
very sleepy!! not getting that clue
ah yes, got it
if you don't lose, you ***
thanks jilli, had just found it
so I saw
was trying to think of another word for find!
ah, the Englsih language!
yes, can be confusing at times - and you get one idea in your head and don't think of the other possibilities
too right, mate!
skipping over the re words!
good idea!
ha! fluked an 8
wtg lyn
got all the wa words :)
got all the wi words too!
wtg jilli
I'm falling asleep, l38 words for tomorrow
goodnight all

*poof*
G;nite Jilli
Bye Flosey too
Good morning/evening all- bye to jillibus and flosey.
morning Haz
Hello, lynxxx, nice to see a meaty sized grid again.
g
Yes, but it seems a bit easy - or maybe I am not into it enough yet
Don't knock it, lynxxx! Sooner or later we'll run out of ideas.
has there been any more news from DrG?
Not as far as I know, although I haven't checked twitter this morning.
I keep logging in, wondering when the new layout will appear, it's nearly as exciting as working out what the next total will be.
The last communication from twitter is that he's trying to incorporate as many 'Lickety' features as possible.
Oh my. I started the grid without looking at the total. misread Haz's statement of meaty as Measly....well....I'll be here a long time.
morning Red
Morning Haz and red and evening lynxxx
morning FM
Good morning red, FM. Time to rub the sleep from those eyes, red. MEATY.
It is 4: 15 am my time! meaty though is different from measly.
How are you today, FM? Still warm by you?
He is 'God' but I can't see how he is going to do it aside from a straight copy of Lickety's layout in Expert - which I don't think he would do.
HAve been productive already and its only gone 9am, so shall have a look at the grid whilst having 2nd mug of tea. Garden wartered and deadheaded, washing done, recycling done and shopping done.
what time do you start work Red?
I have no idea how any of this computer stuff is possible, lynxxx, it baffles me completely, so I just stand back and wait to see what is produced.
No work today, up to run in the cooler moments of the day. and not wanting to go at all...
Low 20's Haz, so much more condusive to activity.
You're a busy bee, FM!
24 here, feels like an ice age!
lol red
hi everyone
Hi Andree.
hello andree
Hello, Andree.
I am missing the long summer days. We are only having 9.5 hours of sunlight at the moment
Hi Andree!
i always miss summer, fortunatly we have very short winters
It does take some getting used to when the days shorten.
I know what you mean, lynxxx, it's the part of winter that I find hard. Dark by 4.30 pm and only getting light around 9.00 am. People at work only see daylight at the weekend. It feels like hibernating sometimes.
<----- refuses to think about Winter!
<------------ putting it firmly to the back of my mind.
Hello
How is the spangly one today?
Hello, herin.
don't blame you after the horrid one you had. At least this winter we are getting some rain
Hi herin.
hi Infernal
She's resting gently, FM, snoring hasn't started yet so all is quiet.
Hello how are you?
hi herin
HJi
phone
Yes Lynxx I agree it turns so cold by 4
Darn, have to go for a while, TTFN.
bye fmitch
My favourite Anglo-Saxon peasant is here. ce5/12.
Bye, FM, see you later.
Bye FM
My fav. is the te7 in the head
So a crazed peasant would be a te7 ce5?
Yep!
Understood!
back soon
Bye, herin.
http://tinyurl.com/249ty4b I leave you with this music cover done by my cousin and his friend. They are really good.

hello :) Long time no see folks :)
Hello, Liz - long time indeed! Nice to see you!
hi liz
hi Liz!
Just been catching up with all Dr Gods proposed changes on the Babble Community on facebook. Its all good :)
How's your shop doing? And the children, and Oscar and your husband?
LOL Haz :)
Children fine, Oscar recovering from cruciate ligament op, husband pain in the proverbial (nothing new there then) and shop demised :(
Oh, more changes announced? What's the latest, in case I've missed out? (I realise my order of questions is all wrong. It should be reversed, shouldn't it?)
Shop demised? Poor shop, what happened?
hope you gave it a decent burial
Latest is preview pics of the new site provoking much discussion over the rather funky bright migraine inducing colouring, but clickable letters as an option and a rotational board!
changes , what changes, i have been away too long
e
A rotational board? That means people won't be able to ask for particular letters (northeast n).
Get yourself on facebook Andree :) Dr God has a site on there where hes showing us all his brand new shiny all singing all dancing Babble site
Rotational is optional Haz :)
Or else go to www.twitter.com/BabbleOverlord and you'll see what he's up to.
BBS
I don't think I relish the thought of rotational. I'm a steady type of person.
See you shortly, lynxxx.
Ooo I do :) Although normally I am wary of changing something that works so well already but I think from checking out the videos that are on the fb site that it will be all for the better :)
liz, no way i am ever getting myself on facebook
bye lyn
People can be very resistant to change - there was outcry a few years ago when he changed things, but it soon settled down and now I can hardly remember what the old site looked like.
Oh. Sorry. Forgot to answer your other question - Shop closed due to lack of manpower as I have been in and out of hospital this year. On the mend now though and raring to race Atalante around Nepal!
Andree you are probably very sensible :)
no liz , i am just getting old
Glad you're recovered, Liz. Ata's leg is obviously going to have to get completely better if she's got to race around Nepal.
I know bless her, poor Ata.
If you can bear with me a tic, I will put one of Dr Gods teaser photos of the new look site on as my profile pic so you can all have a look
Was Dr-G joining in the discussion on FB or is he just observing for the moment? Colour is hard - you'll not please everyone.
Ok tis done if you refresh
another sign of age, whats wrong with the site as it is?
Thanks, Liz.
Yes Haz Dr God is very much joining in the conversation :) (Although he is known as Babble Overlord on there lol)
I think Dr-G wants to make it a bit fresher, needs to attract new people. There are to be some new features, although we're not quite sure exactly what they are. Death rays for trolls have been suggested.
One new feature which I welcome greatly is that you should no longer be able to enter grid words in the chog by accident
That would be good.
Definitely :)
that looks more complicated , but bring it on
dath rays , cool
death too
Hello
news time, later
bye :)
Bye, Andree.
I like the idea of what they do in Sims 3 if you get caught hacking into a computer which is a signal gets sent and the computer gets lightly fried
Bye Andree Hi Liz
Haz, I have to go but was lovely to see you all again :) Back more often now I'm on the mend touch wood
Hope so, Liz - bye for now.
Take care Liz
good morning. What a big grid for a Monday!
Hello, ruby, it is indeed.
HI Ruby
I'm just heading off, though I'll be back later. Enjoy the grid!
Bye Haz
not enough hours in the day!
better jump in for 20 minutes before I hv to make lunch!
the idea of changes scares me as I haven't exactly made a lot of progress so far!
Hi everyone. Not sure I should start this huge grid today, but I can see a word - and another one - and ...
it's good that we can't put words in the chog, but what will happen to the PB parties? And the cabana boys will be out of work!
Hi Sally
hello sally
ditch
ditches
ditcher
oh no, so sorry!!!
I'm sure some of us can put the cabana boys to good use.
RUBY - WRONG BOX!!

Bye Annie
wow -- 97 in DC today -- sheesh
yuck
Will be 92 here today + tomorrow. We will hike in the woods and then swim in the creek.
sounds like fun for people who like to sweat LOL
We do not have time to kayak because my friend is golfing all morning.
i'm sure that's what my brother will be doing today :-)
And she has an evening appt, so we have limited time in the afternoon.
we're taking the boys fishing this morning, and i'm planning on taking daniel back to the creek to swim in the afternoon, when nick's asleep
That will be fun, Feather.
a million years ago I fished in the bayou near my grandmother's with a cane pole and big worms from her camellia garden :-)
Cool, Une--and you can still catch fish that way--no need for fancy equipment!
chog doesn't work in grid.
nope, tends not to m9
Nope--dictionary is archaic.
nbt
i knew that but tried it anyway LOL
go, m9!
Me too, Une
lol, ohh, i thought you meant you were typing into the chog, but in the add word box by mistake.
that's what i thought at first too! LOL
i think tetch should be a word.
i agree!
ummmm keep going
I have been watching 2 red squirrels chasing each other through the trees and backyard. They are so cute.
I thought it might cause some confusion!LOL
I tried that too, Une
Past tense works! TY, Lynxxx!
ah!! but te7 in the head is here.. good
100 to go -- taking a break to eat my yummy peaches -- BBL *poof*
Bye Une--enjoy.
chog is too a word!!
Hi littlebit!
hey scrabbler!!
past tense of ho4 not in dictionary!!! the ho4rs!
so is ho4r!
LOL
:)
I am not sure which ho4 you mean.
garden ho4
i just tried the same thing as you posted!
try again m9
I have ho4 x 3 related to that tool
The 2nd G anyone? Gotta and gotcha are not accepted. I have go4/7.
try what again?
gh6.27
past tense of the garden ho**
gh6.27 gh & period of time & vwl
no dictionary result for that gh word!
TY, Lynxxx--not one my monkey would have found today.
yeah past tense.. but not the poor sods who have to rewater the ice!
Up to 150!
(except as lo5/10rs!LOL
I'm at 85.. that went fairly quickly..of course now I'm kinda stuck!
Pick a tile and work off of it. When I get stuck I then focus on one tile at a time.
now i'm at 95!LOL
gh 6/27, meaning "encirclement," is a word originally from Bengali, and is a typically South Asian way of protest
Go m9 go!
oh yeah! now i remember!... not!
TY, Jeff.
Almost halfway....
goth should be a word too
Someday, m9
Could someone clue the stats for the bottom left L, please?
yeah, when they take chog as a word too!
it's a lw word
lw4.8
lw + 2 vowels
Thanks
Is that considered a babblet? I am behind on my babblets.

hey, flosey :-)
what are the stats on the z please?
yay for m9!
ze4/9 x 2
greek letter and ze + not out
still working on the ch's
didn't think too much of rafa's interview afterwards une
thanks
his English is still pretty limited :-)
he must have said "more than a dream" 10 times LOL
he needs a handler to tell him how to say things now that he is going to be #1
yeah, i'm surprised his English hasn't improved more
I watched the match later .. he took Berdych apart
Federer took some intense language classes a few years ago
he has a lot of strategy in his playing.. it is masterful to watch
yep, Berdych fizzled but i feel sure he'll be back next year
i agree
Federer needs lessons in personality disorders
got the ch's!
yep, the veneer is slipping
yay, pini!!
I bet hitting back and forth with rafa wore him out..
nbt
he also played some heavy duty players leading up to rafa
go, harp!
well done, harp!
wtg harp!
Good morning/afternoon all. Is it fair to disregard years of pretty impeccable behaviour on Federer's part because of an interview when he was bound to be bitterly disappointed. I think the media can be vultures.
I might have to start watching this Rafa guy (from Une's icon, he's gorgeous!)
it's amazing to me just to see the giants taking over tennis -- can't believe how tall these guys are AND coordinated!
hiya haz
yes.. like soderberg
Hello!
yep, haz, same point made by several in tennis.com blog
wonder if Del Potro will make a comeback . . .
I think the whole post-match interview is pretty difficult. Let's not forget how gracious he was in defeat after the classic final two years ago against Nadal.
well.. what about him threatenng that judge...oh..wait..that was Serena
:-D
haz haz haz, no one was slamming Roger
(Shining up my Roger Federer Appreciation Society badge)
he was gracious that day ..true haz. I retract my statement...rafa was more gracious by saying ROger is still # 1
173/164 = list time!
Rafa is always incredibly complimentary of his opponents
I have lots of time for Nadal as well, I think he's a brilliant tennis player and by the end of that Wimbledon match, I was happy for either of them to win.
that was particularly moving what he said that day after the greatest tennis match of all time
Federer when he is on .. is simply the best player in history
Roger is still #1 in terms of Grand Slams, but who knows what may happen in future? It's amazing to see two such amazing players around at the same time.
brb
Amazed that I can't find any other adjective than amazing.
they both are though.. really very talented player
players
And you don't get the feeling, as you always did with McEnroe, that either of them is going to attack the crowd.
but rafa is much cuter
hey, kje!
Hello, kje.
hello
oh good..all i missed was tennis talk!lol
193/144 gonna list now..
Good morning! May I please have a clue for the bottom corner L? I assume it is an LW....
lw 4
lw + 2 vowels
lw plus a couple of vowels, in alphabetic order.
howdy, car :-)
TY! got it! Hello!
You're welcome.
Hiya fellow babblers!
i cannot bring myself to type in that rush l word, can someone come over and do it for me?
hey, beach!
Hello, beach.
rush l word/
?
I always rush I words too harp
I take em down as soon as I see them
grrrrrrr
:-D
I was thinking that Roger might have been upset he has been beat by a bunch of nobody's lately
Has he ever called them 'nobody'?
under his breath at the baseline...
He obviously still has a huge desire to win - is that a fault?
he shouldn't play injured like he has been
But half of them are playing through injuries at any time, aren't they?
no.. not really
he must have to play the grand slams..Nadal stayed out with his knee for a long time
ok, only 100 to go
think I will take a break for more coffee
hi Babblers, doing the grid in spurts today. Fresh eyes just found the palm tree, yay
Bye, kje.
Hello, Aloy.
kje I have 108! maybe when you're done with coffee we'll both be at 100!LOL

hi Haz.. how was the wedding?
It was beautiful!
ah, nice! a relative?
No, the daughter of my husband's business partner.
I'm quite friendly with his wife as well - we went through both pregnancies together so our girls are of an age.
wonderful.. weddings are such a happy occasion
It was fun. Will I put up a picture of the bride and groom?
She has just graduated as a doctor. She looks about 15....
I don't know.. will you?
as long as you return Spangle, it would be nice to see a pic
Okay, I'll rephrase that for m9's benefit. Would you like me to put up a temporary picture of the wedding?
am definitely a member of the Spangle Fan Club

Jellen - just read your profile and will be praying for you and Tim. I live in Oklahoma too - hi, neighbor.

Where big red?
Edmond

di 5 - eats

Used to live in Norman and OKC...

I saw a note on Facebook that Dr. God is making changes to the Babble board - anybody know anything about that?

Join the Babble Community group to get more info...

back in a mo . . .
thanks Une!
when do you think the new one will roll out?
I don't know, red...*anxious*...will there be a lickety?
Evidently not, jellen, though he is including some of Lickety's features
Hi, fuquay
hi jellen
I am list-dependent on the best of days...
I think there will be riots if he doesn't build in some kind of clue list
back again, me too Jellen, would never finish the biggies without Lickety
maybe people would eventually go back to not expecting to finish every one, but it would be a rough detox
Reached halfway...taking a celebratory break!
*pops head back in* <---doesn't detox gracefully
cute, jellen!!!
hehe. I understand perfectly
200 to go
LOLOLOL.....
I'm back, boy is it hot here!

hello again Babblers!!!! what a difficult and long grid today.
hi red; agreed ;)
I started it without look at the number, now have 150 left...
and 2 gray boxes, plus the E.
I'm not much further ahead of you...I still need 134 more
I admit to taking a few breaks here and there....for hours.
dont get brit goodbye
I still need 244!
**-da! magician's exclamation
2 twoletter words used together
aah
124 left - wont finish tonight
I am still hoping to complete, but who knows. I have to eat and really try to sleep. last night was a fireworks nightmare so not a lot of sleep.
I may not finish either...
same here, red...Koda was up until about 1:00...
I was surprised, Teulu did well, he just sat up with ears perked and stared....
OH. real fireworks. i was wondering how babble fireworks could be a nightmare
pini is there a al8 that you clued, i don't see it
congrats les
I took him outside for a few minutes in the hopes he would figure out the bang was followed by colored lights...it didn't do anything...
...so he sat on me most of the night.
most pets really hate them. Teulu is just sort of easy going about everything.
not al8...it was an8
ok ty
what's the 9?? please
np ;)
ca9
i can totally relate pini. my dog just freaks out with fireworks (or any loud noise)
ca9 = large church (like Notre Dame)
we put her in a room with a fan on high and a radio and she still hides under the bed or on top of whoever stays in the room with her
a modern church or quasi-modo church?
ty
cute ru...how's it going?
I am so excited, I got my disposal and dishwasher repaired today, I think...

Hmmm...red wine and oreos?
I'll take the red wine, anyway..

Back from my nap...having milk and a cookie...how old am I?
Family ain't no different than anybody else - some are great and some are missing something
lmao at jellen, I needed a nap when I came home from work
lol, Jellen! Simple pleasures :)
did you get the Rhino or the hippo jellen...lol
Oatmeal chocolate chip!
oh now they sound good
Oh, Jellen - my favorite!
*holds hand out for cookie*
Animal crackers were yesterdays snack...really!
well you did say retro..
shoving ruru out the way to get to the head of the queue
*hey!*
Yet, I've never seen oatmeal CC cookies commercially
(in Joe Pesce voice): "you want a piece of me?"
They're from Kashi...kinda expensive...
lately I have been snacking on snowballs, incredible chocolate cake with cream in the middle covered with marshmallow and topped woth coconut. gross but nice.
*rushes outside to pick up the cat deterent pump action water pistol*
I'll have to look for those...you're worth the expense, though, whatever it is.
"gross but nice"...interesting concept, Red ;)
oh crap. just found out DH and the kids will be home for "dinner" whatever that is
Pushing, shoving, not queing? What is going on?
hi all...just woke up :)
Hi, stidgmere and yogo
nancy, I have food issues, so yes, snowballs are truely gross, btu I have been eating them with no complaints...
I used to make those snowballs red
tunnocks are great snowballs :-)
hi all
really ruru. I find them disgusting but tasty.
you wouldn't eat them if you knew what was in the topping
What are snowballs?
dont tell me.
a colsterol problem in the making
a hostess bakery item.. choc cakewith marshmallow and coconut
I won't .. you'd puke red
I always thought a snowball was a drink. A disgusting drink, but still..
Oh, those things...didn't realize the name
Hey Everybody!
over here they are chocolate with a sticky sugar creamy filling which have coconut on them

Hi, gwenski
NB it is a really vile drink, hubby likes iT!!!!!!!
i have peameal and regular bacon all set for tomorrow and lots of fresh taters for hash browns,a whole tray of eggs....cannot wait...hehehe
Speaking of food items, there's a special treat only available in the Carolinas during the month of July. They've combined two iconic food items, Krispy Kreme doughnuts and Cheerwine (a cherry different soft drink.)
I hate to admit it, but at 152 left, I am sick sick of this grid.
my stupid laptop is going sooooo slow this morning probably wont be able to chat
Aww, y'know Crossy, that's against all my food-related ethics, but I still really hope you enjoy it ;)
gwenski, now that is a bit gross. I hate cheerwine.
155 left, but who's counting?
i am java!
keep the fattening food, i'll be eating fresh shrimp and crab soon
This is a doughnutwith cheerwine kreme filling, topped with chocolate icing and sprinkles.
a doughnut filled with a soft drink?? eww
162 and I have a meeting which I need to leave for in 7 1/2 hours, somehow I don't think fireworks are on the agenda
If you like Cheerwine (like I do), it's quite a treat. Also quite messy to eat.
It;s an iconic idea Gwen, but I think ick!
I don't even like Krispy Kremes anymore. They're just fluff. I need a chewy donut
finally my laptop has woken up its working now :)
lol,it,s worse for the pig thatn the ciicken nb...the chicken is a participant,but the pig is commited lol
We have donut king here in Florida, and they are sinful....local though so thats probably why, not a chain.
no donut royalty of any kind?
Well Donut King is Donut King. I try hard not to eat them when the medics bring them.
I love krispy kremes
awww, I could use some comfort food at the moment. We're watching Philadelphia, and it's been a rough day. It might get tearful..
I bet the cheerwine donut is selling well in NC though, cheerwine is so popular there.
that junk will put you in an early grave
Yes, it is, red.
everything will put you in the grave
TO be honest Sadistyx, I think that junk will only put a person in an early grave if it is regularly consumed, rather than eaten once in a while.
Amen crossy!
seriously NB you have had a bad day so you are watching philadelphia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yup, no one get's out of here alive
all things in balance.
mutant veggies,hormone filled cattle,...hell all you can eat is bean sprouts and distilled water,and i would watch the sprouts
how many of you frink soda daily?
*gets
i love cinnamon donuts.sorry for butting in i dont even know what you guys are talking about....
and cross i get my veggies from my garden
water here.
just food in general myogo
I know, Katie, but I love this movie! Plus, Antonio Banderas!
moving right along....
checking in with the healthy food guidelines, for all those who forgot....
checking in with the healthy food guidelines, for all those who forgot....
hi folks
lol,irradiated dirt,filled with acid rain,you know dcarrots scream when they are pulled from the gound...lol
Hi, JBV
Hi JBV, are you all reitred now?
oh...i like food...it is yummy...
We buy organic when we can, I don't drink soda but maybe once a month and try to stay away from the dreaded hig fructose corn syrup
*high
OK I'll give you that NB but it's not exactly uplifting.
oh, yes, red - it's wonderful - and I have another great story that goes along with it, don't want to bore anyone, but it's in my profile if you'd like an update
moderation is the key to everything
No, maybe that's why I'm watching it. I need a good cry ;)
not everything
goes to JBV's profile, and agrees heartily with Katie, balance...
Including moderation?
something can be enjoyed in excess
some things
JBV, your story reminds me somewhat of the movie, 'Letters To Juliet'.
ever noteice how vegans are pale and thin and scrawny but they live forever,while the meat eaters are stock with ruddy faces and we look great but are at deaths door lol
7 pounds makes me cry so much that although I really love it I can't watch it. I saw it on a plane the first time and they must have thought I was a nutter as I was crying so hard
feeling a tad better, went on line looking for an apt, yikes I can't afford anything decent. Anyone want a roomate with a cat?
ooh, I'll have to see that gwenski - i'm all wrapped up in this right now
JBV that is AWESOME! How neat!!!
(should point out this is a conversation with NB about films rather than 7 pounds of food lol)
yeah, but those pale and thin, scrawny folks will some day die of ???
ha ha peri, I am a slob.
Pale?! Thin?! Scrawny?! Say it to my pale, thin, scrawny face, Crossy!!
NB you are rather thin and pale. Especially when compared to the population where I live...
umm sorry to ask but do you guys spend all day playing babble??? do you guys have jobs???
most vegans have a hard time getting full nutrition, i sy just shoot bambi and get soe BBQ sauce
yogo i am between contracts
Many of us have jobs Yogo. I work nights and so am oftne on during the day.
oops -- gotta run. And no, 'gotta' isn't an accepted word here :)
it's 20 mins to 11pm here. I usually babble for a few mins before work and then in the evening when I watch tv
it should be gwenski
Actually, Sadistyx, I have no problem at all getting all the nutrition I need. I eat well and I'm running a marathon soon.
yes yogo...I work in an elementary school
more bbq now!! arrrooo
(And I'm a vegan - I should add)
retired now, yogo, but when I worked I would babble in the early morning and at night -
Pretty much only on weekends when I don't have other stuff going...
oh are you doing it for charity NB? if so let me know which website you are going through
vegitarian or vegan?
Nancy you should join up on the Daily Mile, its fun for tracking miles.
NB - a marathon? Wonderful!
bbs cat wants food
I've seen that on your facebook red :-)
Totally vegan, Sadistyx :)
oh sorry to ask i just thought you guys might be like depressed or something and spend all day at hhome playing babble...i'm sorry i just yeh sorry
indeed Katie. I am training a lot lately.
Just popping in - Hello to everyone. NB which marathon are you going to be running?
i would go nuts, and would never be able to do my job.
on not tryin g to pick on you nb,you are a good lad,im just having a bit of fun,im sure you will live to 102 and laugh over my gravel)
Well, Yogo, thats an interesting idea. But not true. though I am sure some people are depressed....
Yeah, it's for charity Katie, but not through a website - it's only myself and a few others doing it, and lotsa friends sponsoring us.
yogo don't worry I used to play a game on facebook where many people were housebound and played all day, some people do here but there is a very big mixture of people which is why it is such a good community
babble is quite the melting pot
well good luck with it NB
:)
lol Crossy, I know ;) I was just answering Sadistyx.
*whispers* some of us even do it at work...sshhhhh
not I! I would be fired. Plus I dont have time.
shhhh good enough
brb
Thanks, Katie :) I'll need luck!
crumble (one of my cats) has just sat with her paws resting on the side of my leg, I think she wants to go to bed.
well you don't have a desk job red!
you try and use a comp at a construction site and see what happens
what is your job red...do you make lots of money???
Yogo, retired now but played after teaching all day and on the weekends a few years ago. I like to get 100 words and don't care if I finish the grid. The folks on the chat are as kindly and thoughtful as any i ever worked with or knew off line.
I am melting here...99 today, 101 tomorrow, 102 Wednesday...no relief in sight
only those whose thought police haven't caught up with them - still sore about losing it a year ago to a new security programme
true. I think Good I became a nurse though because I Love to enter data into a computer.
lol yogo,trolling for a mate?
seaspray come to Florida! been raining all week.
Yogo is a little young for that cross.
or washington, just as wet
I usually work a minimum of 10 hours a day, and I still have time for this ;)
If you are looking for merry widows, yogo, don't think this is the right place.
oh,im sorry,i did not know we had young people in here tonight:(
NB you never sleep!!
ill shall watch my p,s&q,s
Oh red, we haven't had rain in so long I would love it!
it's going to rain here at the weekend as I HAVE to go on a team bonding thing and the weather is bound to be awful - you can tell i've gone off the whole idea of it can't you
what to you mean cross and stid...
True Good! My doc prescribed me some seriously heavy-duty sleeping pills, but I don't like taking them because they make me so groggy!
back for a few more
I am loving it, perfect running weather...it does get up to 81 degrees in the day but still very very nice.
same here nb,we have some amatryptalyne,but you spend half the next day in a fog
Maybe I should start trolling for a date around here ;) had to cancel on a very nice young man this evening.
I had my first bout of insomnia last night, not at all pleasant.
the lows at night are in the 70*s
well think of me on saturday morning when I'm on a horse for the first time in life and it's raining
quite, Crossy! damned if you do, damned if you don't.
is that farenite red...
NB you could get a date here very easily all the women love you lol
hi everyone.
yes farenheiht
hi Natasha
it is still 93 here, SeaSpray--at 7:00 pm.

its 9.00 am here i just woke up :)
my poor kids were at outdoor camp today--hiking
oh my, hope they were well hydrated
I was out putting Koda's kennel top on, but have to wait for a friend to come over with my tools (borrowed)
yes, I hope all, in those temps, are well hydrated!
they were, the camp made sure of that, but they got very hot. fell asleep within minutes of getting into the cool car.
been raining here today...haven't been in London though, so managed to miss it.
i would love to go hiking...my family and i might be getting dropped in the middle of nowhere by a helicopter and then we havun...hike and camp for 2 weeks until we get to a place where the helicopter will pick us up...it will be lots of f
we need rain badly, our grass is brown and crunchy, all gardens are dying, very bad
sounds like an adventure, yogo
it is raining here nice and freezing...
if you say so, yogo. That's roughing it a bit much for me!
Whereabouts in the world are you, Yogo?
i know i am sooo excited i love camping...
that's pretty intense yogo. have you done anything like that before?
whereabouts are you, yogo? asian somewhere?
Ew, camping! I've only ever camped at festivals - mmm, sharing a tent with five other men with minimal sanitation facilities - I'll pass!
what do you mean pini
whereabouts are you?
oh I'm with you there natasha, I'm a 4* all inclusive kind of girl
lol NB. go put your feet up before you faint
no i havent but i have been camping before good :)
the closest I've come to camping is a cabin in the middle of nowhere and that was too much for me.
LOL, katie--darn right!
camping is fun...being dropped not so much lol
live what country or something???
yes, yogo
I don't do festivals because of the camping lol
oh australia...
lol Good! worth it for the music ;)
if it's 9am...can't figure out where you are (unless I really think and that's probably not a good thing for me to do today)
ahhhhh, an aussie
hi all

bye nat
you are, NB...younger than both my girls!
Magyk, that's a pretty photo!
ty pini\
ty!
my son and you are of an age nb;0
how is your son getting on, Crossy? he's 16, right?
thanks pini
sorry still cant get it
running to best buy! bbs!
he is doing well nb,the usual teenage angst and issues but is all good
lol Pini...I just feel like I should be feeling more grown up. I mean, I live alone (ish) and support myself...just think I should feel like an adult!
hi everyone!
Happy Birthday, NB. You share a birthday with my brother, but he's a lot older
hi M
nb,time is funny nb,you blink and you have kids getting married,grey in your beard and hair on your shoulders
just remember to be a kid every now and then!
hi m9
so7/32? right before the pain
thanks, Java :) must say, I'm glad to put this year behind me!
NB, is it your bday?
oh, wait...not yet...on the 11th...
See, when you get to our age things go by quickly!
speaking of kids... mine is telling me that I'm "rude!" for getting on the puter.LOL I better see what he's needing.
lol Crossy! It's alright, I can't grow a beard, so no grey there...and I don't think kids and marriage is coming up too soon either!
LOL Pini!
i still feel like i should be in college and i'm far from it honey. age is a funny thing...
ok,a lesson for you nb(i am stealing this) there are 3 kinds of time.short time,regulary time and long time..einstein said it best "try holding your hand on a stove burner for a minute,then try hoding the hand of a pretty woman for a minute..that is the theory or relativity
I work at a uni and the freshmen get younger and younger every year...
urgh, I wanna go to university...maybe then I'd get all this childhood out of my system!
pini,how come i keep getting older and all the pretty girls stay 25??
crossy, interesting!!!
indeed pini
There's a difference between childish and childlike...and you're not childish, NB
Watch it crossy, you're treading on dangerous ground
crossy, same on the flip side for me...I don't think I'm aging so pretty soon the incoming students are going to be 10-12
Interesting, Crossy...although I'll substitute a handsome man for that pretty woman you mentioned ;)
...and then 8-10 and so on!
I am only childish when I am.
they stay 25 crossy ..they just get years of experience at it...ie...I am 25 with 20 years experience... ;)
{{BR}}
ooooh, nice one, barb!
hey there BR!
yeah sounds better than saying I'm 45
though tbh,i knew when i was no longer a youth..one day i was coming out of a shop with a bag in each hand and this vision came up to me,a stunning blonde in heels ,my heart stopped,she leaned towards me and her ruby lips parted and she said"excuse me sir,do you need a hand to your car with those bags? they look a bit heavy for you"
hiya peri ;)
hello
ROFL!!!
poor crossy :)
thats when i knew it was all over
LOL, crossy
Ouch crossy that must of hurt the pride
I knew I was no longer young when I was in my 40's and a sales clerk called me Mam :(
lol cross
hey Pini
lol Crossy! well on the flipside, I knew I was not an adult when I went to buy liquor yesterday, forgot my ID, and was refused and called 'sonny' by the cashier...
we may not be stunning blondes with ruby lips but we still luv ya crossy (of course maybe we are stunning blondes - you never know)
(brunette here)
NB, when you're 40 and still get carded, you'll love it
i let my fantasy run wild good enough lol
oh DH and kids home from the weekend, must go greet
I got told I look 15 yesterday! It's not fair at all, Java ;)
biab must burn up some dinner...semi-poink
but, NB, you're closer to 15 than we are!!!
You're a whole lot closer than I am!
But Pini, my teenage years have been nothing but bad news ;) I just wanna leave them behind!
well, take the mistake as a compliment not a dig at your past ;)
I was mistaken for my gson's mom last Thursday...
NB, you will, soon enough..there's a lot to be learned from those years. Like how to treat others in similar circumstances, for instance
...when I explained I wasn't they complimented me on how young I looked and asked if my daughter was 12!
lol! I guess I'll have to be older before it becomes a compliment. A good friend of mine always tells me that - he's just turned 51, could be in his thirties though!
but then he's young at heart, too. Perhaps that's the secret ;)
That's certainly one of the secrets
Must have been nice, Pini! Maybe you are that blonde Crossy is dreaming of ;)
i have not gone a day past 25....in my mind
I'd have to dye my hair to be considered, NB! LOL
awww Tom Hanks is dying :( this film is so sad...
There is something to being as young as you think you are...
You must be watching "Philadelphia"?
Not getting any more words - of course, it might help if I was trying - but it's time to go. Gotta water plants and pay bills (now that's an adult activity). Night, y'all
yes is is a sad film, NB
That's right Pini - well, it's just finished. Weeping away!
night java!!!
Night, Java :)
my da says it gets better again when you are up around 70 as you can do whatever you want,cause no one takes you seriously anymore.hit on the young ladies and they just laugh and give you your meds for the day;0
Oh it gets me every time Peri - there is a kleenex mountain growing next to me.
and how does your dau know this, crossy?
cause he is as bad as me,now that he is older he is a machine i tell you lol
ohhhh, your DAD...I thought you meant daughter...I follow now! :)
no,my dad lol
i only have one child my son,my deamon offspring from the seventh circle of hell
lol Crossy! How come your dad gets to have all the fun...I had to cancel a date this evening :(
what a nice description, cross! :-/
* perk * date? what's that???
Hello again...
i do not know nb,he will not tell me the secret yet..all i know after 17 years of marriage is that it has something to do with chocolate
hi jellen
lol Pini...well, in this case, it's when an incredibly cute guy asks you out ;) guess I blew it by cancelling at the last minute though.
Hi again, Jellen :)
heck yeah! I wouldn't mind going on a date ... guess I have to be asked first tho ... minor technicality!
haha, Crossy! I'll believe that..
Chocolate and liquor.
I pass on the liquor...but NEVER on the chocolate!
why'd you cancel NB?
I pass on the chocolate, but never the liquor ;) I had to go back to Brighton and sort some stuff out, Good. Or attempt to, anyway. Kind of a long story.
A minor emergency ;)
oh well. be cute (yourself) and i'm sure he'll ask again
or you ask him again
I dunno Good - he wanted to know why I was cancelling, which was fair enough, but I kind of had to tell him the whole back story for it to make sense. Might have been a bit much...
thank you for the cute comment though ;) gives me hope!
well if this doesn't work i'm sure there will be another
nb.never wait for fate to come to you,i waited to get together with my mrs,and i regret it.we could of had 3 extra years of marriage...but crossy used to be shy...lol
Well, I have my words and about 50 more so that's it from my corner of the world. Poof.
hi/bye stidg!
Bye, stidgmere
Hi.
*faints* you, Crossy?? Shy?! Yeah, I hope so, Good ;) been feeling a little lonely lately.
I have 4 minutes and just couldn't resist saying hello
howdy herin
Hi, herin
4 WHOLE minutes?
Hello
hey herin ;)
yep.
I have to go out :(
have to?
Waves. I will live imaginary Lindt choc raspberry's and choc behind though
Have to. Have a craft thing to go to which will be fun
as long as it's a fun outing!
I can't imagine Crossy as anything less than the ultimate laydeez man ;)
lol,my wife proposed to me nb;0
he does have a way with words, doesn't he??? :)
It will be fun (if this damn cake hurry's up
or lack thereof LOL
We have these fake jelly raspberry's lollies that I love. I coated them in dark lindt choc worked a treat
awww, Crossy! Bet that's a good story :)
it is,but i shall regale you with the tale another day
I'll go elsewhere for my bedtime story then ;)
:( Must go. Love to stay and chat though
have fun, herin!
I will do. I will eat cake for you
woot woot!
ooh, here is a good bedtime story - watching Snog Marry Avoid ;) it's a makeover show.
haven't heard of that one!
lol@snog,marry,avoid..all we see of britt television is coronation street and dr who
it's trashy Pini ;) it's a "make-under" show - they take the fake plastic ladies (and men, apparently) and reveal their natural beauty. It is hilarious ;)
I'll have to try and google it
the girl they're featuring at the moment is awwwful...SO much makeup, only wears pink, fake everything, puts pink glitter on her horse's hooves...bleurgh!
hello everyone - yikes over 300 words and just getting on
hi river!
Hi, River
hi River
* getting barf bag for NB *
she's like a messed up barbie!
make under show???hmmm
her make-under is actually really pretty, but they can't do much about her personality :(
Found 3 episodes on youtube!
it's complete trash TV Pini - totally contrived, but just so funny.
sounds like the "true beauty" show here...
I don't know where they find the people they feature! Currently they're showing, literally the gayest guy I've ever seen. His eyeliner is messed up though.
I'm watching one about a girl who dunks herself in fake tanning lotion, has a daughter and they dress alike! EWWWWWWWWWWWW
this guy's name is Clinton. If I stood next to him I'd look like Mr T ;)
I know Pini! It's awful!!
gads, this girl looks and acts like a ooker
most do Pini, it's dire!
OMG! she's wiping her face off...gads, the amount of pancake makeup on her!!! SHEESH!!!
I'm not so sure the make under on her was all that great!
but her bf loves it!
I knowwww! I can't wait to see what they're going to do to this guy...
oooh, he's hot. they're hit and miss Pini - generally an improvement though!
Hi all. 116 left to get.

oh, cinderella is SO CLOASE to being in this grid!
hey Nancy Boy... are you licking stamps? do the calories count if the stamps are pre-sticky?
NOOOO - guess I can give that up to lose weight...

I get lonely fast, Stid. I was meant to be on a date this evening, but had to cancel.
Not seriously dating, of course. I'm just trying to talk myself out of the fact that I'm still very much in love with a complete...badword ;)
Nancy Boy, perhaps if you are happier with yourself, you will be luckier with men? (just a thought, it worked for me. the minute I wasn't desperate for companionship, I found my tom)
*offers choclit, which also helps...*
<---tom was desperate for Stid however
oh! past halfway *ignoring ruru*
I used to have a lot of dates, when I handed out calendars.

Hi, Min

I hope Tim goes home tomorrow, hospitals are not fun.
Thanks, stid. You too

holy cow!
hopefully he is left-handed
what an idiot! i hope he will be okay, and i hope he learned a lesson from that! sheesh
his buddies drove him, and the arm, to the hospital -- they were gonna try to reattach it . . .
I am doing well lbdawger. Staying inside to avoid the humidity, but I did take dog to dog park & on a walk.
Darwin Awards
he's going to have troub le being at an "arm's distance" from people
that's an owie Une.
give ru a hand, everyone
depends on how far away the arm is, ru

hello dr
We are good Stid- He was sad his Website design class was cancelled but he will still be taking a FLASH animation class
well, there is always next year, too. FLASH should be fun.
Then next week is video production using computers and fencing
sounds like an interesting summer program dr
I am just trying to keep his brain engaged
wow! that does sound fun.
It is College for Kids Dorens- sponsored by a local Junior college district
younger son just started rehearsal for the first play, second play rehearsals begin next week.
fantastic
good for them Stid!
elder son refused (pretty much) to do the things that were possible, so he is working for his grandparents and around the house.
Darthdude leaves on Saturday for the program at Cal Arts in LA- one month of music and living in dorms. I think it is called Interspark
ooh, what play, Stid? :)
he is old enough to do that stid.. if grandparents have things that need doing, it's a good plan, yes?
that will be excellent, DR. I hope he'll enjoy it.
Well the first is the Elton John version of Aida, the other is The Mikado.
fingers crossed...
Wow, pretty musical then!
it will have to be good enough Doren, I don't have the energy to fight him any more.
Nice Stid!
those will be fun to watch too stid. and not fighting him anymore might be the best way to win
don't know what roles he will get, but he is hoping for Ko-Ko in the Mikado.
just be a candle in the wind stid
fireworks
WTG Dorens
YAY Doren!
wtg dorens
Jake is singing Evanesence as loud as possible... listening to his Ipod... : )
not fighting him this last year doren almost ended the possibility of his graduating on time...
aya doren!
i know it sounds sacreligious, but sometimes not graduating on time might be the best thing for a kid... hard to tell without knowin whole story, and i guess in this case it is good that you did.. .but you sure deserve a break now, right?
man - i turn my back for a few min and everyone finished! congrats all
Night all. Congratulations to the finishers.
it is still possible, but only with significant effort and expense. NOTHING has ever been the right thing for the elder son.
i started this one too late
hey, hootowl, it was great seeing your son here yesterday!
hi all... i came back for my last 67 but i am very tired. probably won't finish
wait! you saw WOULF????
hey dobie
yes, he stayed awhile and visited -- such a surprise!
yeah I got on right after he left! Missed him entireky
excellent, Une. I am so glad you got to see him.
sounds like things are going well for him :-)
Hi jmcnrick! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
Nancy Boy, do you act or sing?
hey une.. you really enjoyed wimbledon, yes?
bummer, hoot --
YES!!!
par for the course
anyone need a clue before i conk out?
I'll pin him down one of these days
eh? sorry, I keep drifting away. I could never act, Stid! Sing...I've sang on stage before, as part of a band, but I don't want to make a hobby of that - it was terrifying ;)
really Nancy Boy? I would have thought you a natural. you seem pretty confident to me. But you're right, it takes a particular love for that kind of excitement to do it often.
i bow to the grid with 50 left. g'night all
so 8 pls?
sweet dreams Good Enough.
so 8 the first is a comparative of the 6 that precedes
Ohhh no Stid, it was a total rush, but scary ;) glad I come across as confident though! it's half the battle ;)
the second so 8 is the bottom of footwear + exer**** (activity)
this 8 begins with the bottom o f a sho4
so8/45 so+what you walk on+ov**
ty
what you walk on + exer****? it won't take
72 what are you looking at?
not the footwear, the bottom of the footwear...
stid is talking about s08/70
it's the exer part that makes no sense
mine is so8/45
it works Hoot- I got it
exer**** alt spelling using high-point tile
for the 70? no
well,thats it for crossy for the night,the grid wins again,tc everyone and happy babbling

I am well. I gave up on the grid. Now doing a story of clues. Was hoping to finish before stidmama left. Oh well.I'm writing about my job as an ESL te 7/36 today
hi minver, i only have 208 to go, is it that bad?
Hello harpjane! How are you? Welcome to the puzzle
It is bad if you're tired and you have no time to finish
well, you have 20 more than me HJane
Hi all. I just got an e mail from an old workmate telling me our old boss had been in touch to say one of our colleagues and friends has died. She was about 93, if I've worked it out correctly from her age of 53(my age now) that she was in the 70s. She had a shop roof fall on her head in the lunch hour one day when she was off buying cakes in there for us. She was a kind soul and will be much missed. Unfortunately, my friend told me the time of the funeral but not the date.
However, I have both my old workmate and my old bosses' 'phone numbers, so I should be able to find out.
wow, that's too bad
Sorry to hear that, Jacula
oh JAc- Im sorry
quitting with 64 left - a good days work but time for bed
she was age 93 and she was at work?
that bites
We've talked for so long in letters on on the 'phone, about having a works reunion. Time to do it NOW, I think.
or did i miss something?
firebirds! Finally!!!
we have a guy that saw the dinosaurs die and he still works
Harp - No! She was 53 and at work. I'm going back 30 years.
ah, i thought i had missed something
No, longer than that.
Wow, Sadistyx, you're still around!
Looking at my financial status, I will be working when I'm 93 :(
That is sad news, Jac - sorry to hear it :(
Ditto, Jilly ;)
I don't know, to be honest. But Audrey was either in her 80s or 90s. She survived the roof and shop falling on her head.
i'm not that old, we have a guy named Sully, he is the oldest ironworker in the world, or at least he looks the part
I hope I've not been informed too late to go to her funeral. I'd like to be there.
sorry Jac, I know what you mean about always planing to get together' if you don't plan it, it'll be at a funeral.
I think Audrey may achieve in death what she tried to achieve in life lately - a reunion of the workers.
Jillyjill - too right! And, when you meet wit friend and family at funerals, you all say you'll meet up for a party or something soon, but it never happens... and then you meet at the next funeral.
Why are we all so dumb and inactive?
How often have any of us gone to a funeral, wishing we had taken more time to spend with the person while they were living? What a sad reminder
we don't seem to learn do we?
No, we don't.
Wonder if all this internet stuff, like Babble will do, make it better or worse?
So, I guess that's a lesson to us all then. Love the ones you're with!
i think it helps, it's sure is a lot easier to organize a high school reunion with the Internet!
Welll. Jilly jill. I'm not too good a replying to e-mails, though I chat on Facebook etc. I do still do snail mail though, which is usually answred, even by older relatives, by e mail now.
So, who knows?
ahh, is that what you've been up to Hjane?
Well, the itnernet got me and my other half together, not on a dating site, and it also got most of our family chatting. It also enabled an old school reunion. The internet is fantastic, if you are careful about how you use it.
hi everyone
Hi choco.
hi choco and all
Hello yogo1! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
Hello choco! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
I aro4/4 this morning with the intention of finishing. But th 4/5 I had a very busy day. Some have already ac4/6 this grid, but not me. After I di 4/5ed with my hubby I started babbling lat. I gave up at 239 words. When babbling becomes a ch5/14,I just give up.I am ignoring my ch6/24 by doing a story to le4/5 a hand In case you do not know, I'm a te7/36. I te5/14 ESL. I ch5/14 to become a teacher at a very young age.I en5/10ed in college with the intention of becoming a te 7/36. I was a ne 4/5 in college, however, all of my hard work paid off. I love my job.I love having the ro 4/4 of a te 7/36. I think it's ra4/4 for people to love their jobs. There are advantages and disadvantages to being a te 7/36. Here some of the disadvantages. Sometimes my students give me a big headac4/,but I love ea 4/6 of them anyway.I'm also an 4/4 and must have things done a certain way. Also,you don't make much di 6/21 as a te7/36. It is so hard to get di6/21 done,because I do not have any access to a copying machine. Here are some of the advantages. I get to de4/6rate my room the way I want.I also get to play games with the kids.My kids love to play Math games using di 4/6. Sometimes I use the di4/6 to te5/14 or 7/32 numners. I don't have to go on a di4/5 because I get enough exercise going up&down the stairs 100 times a day.My students like to dr4/9.It's fun to see some of their pictures and how they perceive things Some of my students have dr 5/20 the most amazing pictures. I really like the people I work with. ot 5/12 te 5/14s are so ni 4/4! Except for the Principal, she is a th5/12 in my side.I wish I could wave a magic wa 4/9 and make her disappear. She acts more like a wa 6/33 than a Principal. The te 7/36s are ni 5/12 than the Principal. They wa6/33 about the Principal when I first started. Some students call her the wicked wi 5/22 of the west. Oh go4/7! Look at the time!I have to go to bed.Goodni4/4 to all babblers!I didn't ed4/5 story. My mind is sh 4/5. There may be some errors.
I'm going to wander off now. Happy Bablbling all.x
