nite all!!!
we have a bush fire about 5 minutes away. the water bomber planes sure are loud
thankyou for az clues
where are you crystalle?
In perth
oh, dear.....are you planning to stay or go?
we are not near the big fire going on near roleystone. we are near a smaller fire.
so you have elvis and his little brother there?
it is a small area of bush , right on the river so water planes do not have far to go. no need to leave
elvis and his little brother?
elvis is a huge water chopper.
it's on lo4 here from USA
i think the water choppers are over in roleystone fighting the big fire. we have water planes flying over here
here being my house. They are very loud.
glad you are safe, crystalle
and they fly sooo low
We went outside when we first smelt the smooke and there were hundreds of birds flying away from the bush
We went outside when we first smelt the smooke and there were hundreds of birds flying away from the bush
i need to see about dinner soon. need a clue to help you ?
good morning everybody
((grannyrose))
((((ruby))))))) how are you?
no i am right. Only have 20 left
.
this place seems so safe compared to every place else -- gentle weather (cold, but no big deal), not too much precipitation, gradual hillside, etc. Only problems are in our house! hahah
I am OK, husband is still in hospital but hopes to get out tomorrow.
good news ruby....sorry i was distracted for a while
all is calm for the moment
and I am having a little break between chores and hopsital!
you deserve it, ruby. mother mac comes home from respite care on wednesday....so back into harness for me.
how old is she?
oars
92 this month.
whoops! so much for multi-tasking....duh
is she lucid?
very!!!! but has multiple medical problems which take a lot of organising
I will probably have to get an oxygen machine for the house
the main problem is that I can't move husband around, so he will have to stay upstairs for fear of falling
she is legally blind, deaf in both ea4, has chronic renal failure, CCF, parkinson's, diabetes.......
oh boy, you certainly have your hands full! Do you have a visiting nurse?
ruby, can you convert a downstairs room as a bed/sitter for him?
she has carers 3 x per week for a shower, that's all!!!
I think he'd be more comfortable in the bedroom; he has his own bathroom with shower, the TV, his study with computer. I don't mind bringing his meals upstairs.
oh, and i forgot, chronic asthma in her one remaining lung
the only other place would be the guestroom, which is near where my studio and computer are, but there's no TV, no computer for him, and there is only a tub, no shower
how do you cope?
how will you get him upstairs?
LOL, and i work 3 x 10hour shifts a week...
I think that I'll bring him home by taxi and the cab driver will have to help him down the stairs from the street and then upstairs to the bedroom.
you are amazing!
can you get a "walking" ambulance? that way there would be 2 others to get him in the house
I don't know how to ask for that in French.....nobody speaks English, which is a big problem, but it's a very good idea. Maybe even a regular ambulance
you can only try, ruby..sometimes you have to ask for something..
there is an ambulance service in our village; maybe they can help me, because there is no way I can drive him home myself.
I'm sure, if he can walk into the ambulance, they can secure him into a seat.
ther you go, hopefully problem sorted, ;) i'm sorry, ruby, i have to go...himself is doing the shark act, circling around me, asking what's for dinner.
Ruby, ask the hospital if they can help...xxx
hello dizgrannie. The hospital is less than helpful!
watch out for those sharks! Thank you for your help, grannyrose
damn!!! what a pity
ruby, please log in tomorrow about the same time, let me know how things went.
it is shocking how little English, even the health professionals, know. I've been told that they all take 7 yrs of English to get their degrees; where does it go?
don't they have translators?
ty for your concern, grannyrose. Some time I'll tell you about all the Roses in our lives!
nite all. *poof*
no, we are in the sticks but fortunately, the hospital is very new. The old one was a very scary, filthy place
yay, half! and off I go.
yay, half! and off I go.
grannie, if you're still here}}
hello ruby, how are you
goooooooooood morning fellow babblers xxx
and if anyone says hi and i ignore u its cos my comp is on a go slow thanks to an installing update!!

hi Glantarell and Soodle :)
Good morning all......what a horrible dreich day here....
hi Flask, is it bad? What does dreich mean?
Not too good here either Flask - gloomy & damp
Morning all ... what a lovely word dreich
morning Norma
wet...damp...drizzling rain...and very dull....
Hi sprite
Dreich is a very good word and describes the conditions perfectly
oooo am gonna remember that one. We have days like that here too. *sending over a ray of sunlight*
Thanks sprite we need a ray of sun
Is lickety on holiday ??
one for you as well then, Norma! We had a couple of days of storm, but now there is a bit of sun. Am happy to share :)
ah! NBT, so back to the wallpapering for a whule - see you all later.
bye Glantarell, I hope it goes smoothly
Sprite, I think I should warn you. My daughter and 19 of her friends are hitting Amsterdam on Thursday. Be afraid. Be very afraid..................
hehehehe I think Amsterdam can handle them...
I just hope they behave themselves!!!
should they become incarcerated, let me know and we will see what can be done ;)
If they become incarcerated, they can stay incarcerated!!
lol!
She was delighted to hear the weather is nice there at the moment. They are flying Ryanair, and are not taking any checked-in baggage, so they will be wearing most of their clothes. So, they will be pretty identifiable - 20 Michellin-Men arriving in Eindhoven!!
yes, smart of them to dress warmly, it is volatile weather atm. One day freezing cold, next storm, next sunny and actually above zero.
Hope they do not get too tyred..LOL
lol
Ha ha, Zooz!
thats bad zooz
but funny
hehe
not asking for a clue yet, but does anyone know if one of the Zs is a biggie?
z6
Its a 6, Sprite. Quite findable.
thanks Soodle
'Findable' as in, I found it. A piece of cake for you!!
that is debateable, but I thank you for the vote of confidence :)
ah got it, thank you. I even know the word ;)
thanks zooz too
Ok off to have Sunday roast at parents today, Take care, All :-)
have a good time, zooz *hugs*
Have a lovely day, Zooz.
bye zooz
spae
good one!
sorreee
grin :D I am sad that becoming mentally healthy again isn't a word. It is what I have been working on for years!
If you could do that, Sprite, you could bottle & sell it and be a millionaire!
oh I wish!
hmz kind of a brick wall at 84 left.
wa- 4-5-4-5-4 we 4-5-4-5- wr 4-5. 1 more?
sorry, can't help you there. Isn't there a list at flosey's or volleymomdee's profile?
volleydee has a list
Another wa 4, Gramma....
wa4
sprite, I was actually trying to help you. I thought it might help to get over that wall. Sorry, I didn't know there was a list 8(
aw how sweet, thanks gramma. I am fine, I seem to enjoy torturing myself with this ;)
good enough. We've all done it.
bbl
:D
bfn gramma
has anyone got a pe6?
all i need is a pe 6 for fireworks
don't have it yet but will help looking
thimnk the beginning of 'last but one' - I just monkeyed it and it worked
ty sprite
ah good clue, thanks!
it starts with a writing utensil and ends as a grown-up person.
or rhymes with a grownup, is maybe a better way to put it
ty ty ty
Good morning all. Sprite, I'm glad you changed that because although I have the word, your clue didn't make sense!
it wwas easy once i tried using bottom n
gratz crystalle!
hi Sally, lol. I should have said it ends the same way as a grownup. But rhyming is better.
I thought it was some strange Dutch word you have for grownup :-)
can i help with clues anyone?
lol! well, we got there eventually :P
crystalle: not for me yet, but thanks.
No thanks crystalle, not been on long so plodding on at present.
ok will get monday icon set up then i am off.
phantom: answer
bye crystalle, have a great Sunday eve.
I have boring pets
goodnight all. Happy Babbling. (boring pets..crazy crabs and goldfish)
lol!
any clues for the top left n would be appreicated
just popping in and out while wallpaper soaks... 4 more drops to do - but two are just above window pieces...
one is short sleeps
got that one
that's the only one i have LOL
one is na + you can eat out in a ***taurant
lol sprite, I was going to say that, then was going to write ****! which is of course an anagram of it.
ty - i had tried that without the last letter
to do with the nose ...
how many words today?
yeah me too. It is one of those things without a singular.
229, Ouwachita
great, thanks Chessy, and hi~!
thanks sprite and good morning
Hi all :)
:D Sally
good morning Ouwachita and np
TY Chessy!
morning all
Morning Carlee.
morning carlee
its superbowl and we have a big grid
Hi Sprite.
that is just..wrong
bad timing for you?
hey Molly :D
I don't mind a big grid on a busy day. It makes my "take a break" time more interesting. Who is fixing what for the big game?
is this one worth starting?????
oh..i am just makingmyself some nachos...am watching by myself
oh absolutely. It is a fun grid. Many 'series'. Find one word and you find a whole lot like it.
( and no lickety???)
I'm fixing to take a nap!
nope but they said volleymomdee has a list
hi dJean, na4 are nice
Nope, no Lickety. Hi Jean.
hi molly
(and there I go to the sin bin)
hi spritey
its superbowl...there will be lots of snacks today am sure sprite
Come Sprite. We will go have coffee and hot buttered croissants in the PB.
ah, true, carlee. And Molly, let's :D
Croissants? Thinks about what word to say accidentally to get into the PB.
Hi Sally. I'm thinking no4 might send a lot of folks to the PB today. I'll bake some brownies while I'm in here.
just hop in, Sally. We won't tell.
Someone might make a no** of it though, sprite :-)
lol
I'll erase it. Erase is a phantom anyway.
I believe The Babble Police are all away at the moment Sally. Your secret is safe with us.
lol Molly
well..nbt in 28
Carlee, how do you like your nachos? Hot or mild?
well done carlee
medium to hot hun...
and u?
Not too hot. I can't taste anything else when food is too hot. Overactive taste buds.
ahhh... i like with zip and lots of sour cream :)
Never too much sour cream. : )
exactly....so..in case anyone was worried we'd end up with a room full of barfing teens who ate too much choclit...we didnt....it rocked!!!
Marvelous, how did it go?
it rocked
what did you do?
hello again
hello rubyfoo
they did this craft thing first....made flip books ( mini movies on paper..bouncing ball kind of thing)
ruby! How is other half today?
how's your husband?
then they watched charlie and choclit factory original with gene wilder....and had chocolate fondue and other junkie foods ( chips, cookies ) but we did the fondue with fresh fruit
hi ruby how is dh?
carlee, I think you are amazing. Sounds like a great, great party
then... they had to rate that first movie... and explain their rating system
The original Charlie And The Chocolate Factory is the best. No re-make was necessary.
I second that
he is planning an escape, I'm afraid, thinks that he's going to die there. He's in the pneumonologie dept. and the care is less good than in the other AND he has a roommate!
I want to come to carlee's next party! eat junk food! hang out!
So is it the tunnel, the knotted bed sheets, or the balsa wood aeroplane ruby?
Ruby, I can't blame him for not wanting to be in the hospital. They are dismal places.
then...they played this circle game with dice... u we4 mittings hat and scarf and then try to cut a piece of choclit off a bar...meanwhile people take turns trying to roll dble 6's..once a dble 6 happens u lose ur turn..and u strip off hat and gloves etc...pass to person who got the 6's and everyoen starts trying to roll 6's whilst she is trying to get all the winter gear on and trying to cut choclit off the bar with clunky mittens on again
but he's still on oxygen.
Carlee, which movie did they rate? I missed where you mentioned the first one.
that is an adorable game, carlee, did you invent it?
Hospital might be dismal, but sounds as if they are taking good care of him.
charlie and choclit fac original...they rated
no..didnt invent it....its somewhere in our guiding stuff
I've never seen that movie
it must be difficult for him to not be in charge, rubyfoo, but even if the hospital isn't great, he seems to get good care. Oxygen is very important while recovering from pneumonia.
then...they got their ice cream sundaes ( with hot fudge sauce and choclit sprinkles ) and settled in to watch the new version of charlie
you all know what a control-freak he is, so this makes him crazy!
yep that is what I meant
Just looking up flights to carlee's for ice cream sundae
sprinkles!
carlee, I wanna be a kid again and join your party!
morning all
how are you feeling, sprite, any better?
help pls with O above the P pls
Control freaks are not very good patients. I feel sorry for the nurses. Carlee, I have a chocolate hangover just hearing about last night.
most fell asleep with it on...a few made it to the end..( at 2:30 am )...breakie was at 8:30 am... chocochip waffles, yoghurt and fruit with chocolate milk
hi periwinkle, not close
NM NBT
fortunately, he is charming with the nurses, never asks for anything....
ty sprite
hi peri
hi peri...
rubyfoo: not yet, thanks for asking. It is a nasty flu.
anyway...that was our chocopalooza ....girls had a blast ( yay ) i came home made myself baked beans on toast with a couple poached eggs and climbed into bed...slept for 4 hours...
phone
I'm stymied by the right-hand bottom o for nbt, please!
you are amazing, carlee. Seriously.
your beans and eggs on toast sound better than the chocolate, carlee
one is a greek drink, rubyfoo
Put that dog on** the floor, ruby!
on5 of spaghetti.all covered with cheese.... i lost my poor meatball when somebody sneezeed
slap me with a mackerel!
minus the p
ty sally
carlee, that song exists in dutch too!
morning. anyone seen scrabs?
and now everyone has an earworm
that's funny, sprite, without mountains, no less...
( she broke her glasses..can't see comp screen well )
k, thanks!
no4, haven't seen scrabs in days. Is there an update on lynxxx?
hmph. if penpal isn't a word, what is?
what happened to lynxxx?
What's up with lynxxx?
hello hurshy
is she near the fires?
last I heard was that she went away from chog to check on the watery sounds and she didn't come back to chog. No, not fires, flooding, rubyfoo.
Lyn said last night that she had suffered some water damage which might cost hwer a couple of thousand $ to put right, bit nothing serious
zooz found a film on youtube that was close to where lyn lives and it wasn't good. But maybe lyn has been back in chog already since then, I don't know.
poor Australians! If it's not floods and storms, then it's fires and drought!
ah, good, Glantarell, thank you. Well, not good about the damage. But very good lyn and hers are okay.
Lynx has been back, she was here yesterday. All is well but her neighborhood sustained a lot of damage.
hello glanta
hi ruby - been popping in and out between hanging sheets of wallpaper
am very glad all is well
very ambitious, glanta!
they are certainly made of tough stuff...they dont have spring summer winter fall they have flood, storm, fire and drought seasons all
exactly, carlee
I wouldn't hang them, Glantarell... I'd paste them to the walls :)
and practically all their native wildlife is deadly LOL
we are very lucky with the weather here
I admire anyone who has the patience to hang wallpaper.
it is definitely a country for adventurers
ha ha - luckily they are staying on the walls where I'm haning them
any clues for the 8's?
the poisonous wildlife is very scary.....
se8: aircraft for the ocean
the last two pieces are about a foot deep, just to go above the window - but both have interesting corner stuff so i will swear a bit as i use my patience up
in the first round of flooding in Queensland, did anybody see the swimming snakes?
un8: forgets their education
ty sprite!
lol
yoda: "you must un7 what you have le5ed" :)
un8 - the opposite of to le*** something
ty sprite, got the se now looking for the other
my pleasure :D
ty ty
i have 145 left and everything i enter is a word i've already found this morning lOL
1st col grey!
127 words, but not much energy left
no columns greyed!
you'll get your second wind, Glantarell.
wtg hursh!
back to te wallpaper - see you soon
bye glanta
Great...now I have on4p of spaghetti stuck in my head.
bye Glantarell, good luck
we all have, I think, Molly, LOL. I am singing the dutch version right now.
hahah molly!
<hehehehe>
<evil grin>
that must be a hoot, sprite, what do you use for the mountain name?
Brilliant clue for the u Hursh.
only cause yoda is brilliant :)
we don't use a mountain in the song. The meatball rolls down from the house to the garden, finally is lost, but a year later there is a meatball tree in the garden.
and the morale of the song is you have to hold on to your meatball when someone sneezes...
right col A: ar5, aw4, az5, and...?
another az5
I'd like a meatball tree......
ty, 5th column grey!
good job!
*Wires money to a gardener in Ruby's village and tells him to plant a meatball tree in her yard. Also asks him to buy her a copy of "Charlie And The Chocolate Factory.*
thank you molly!
( which cerson molls?. gene wilder or jonny depp ?)
I could easily get a dvd for you of that movie, rubyfoo. Just email me your snail mail addy and I'll send it to you.
version* even
I just saw my friend, the nun, from the tiny convent in the village. She said she'd pray for me and I started to cry. She is the sweetest!
gene wilder of course!
I am happy you have people nearby who support you, rubyfoo. This is tough on you too.
thank you, sprite, but I will look for it locally, when I climb out from under the current mess.
Gene Wilder version is the ONLY version worth watching, in my humble opinion.
this is a very nice village,(except for the bad dog, of course)
np, just remember you can ask me for it if you can't find it, ok?
i don't think either version really captures the book properly... what's wrong, ruby, that things are tough?
{{loves sprite}}
( i dont like that one at all...he totally creeps me out - like him way better in young frankenstein )
husband is in hosp., but I've gone on about it for more than a week...
i don't pay too much attention in chat sometimes...
is that book by Raould (sp?) Dahl
I'm embarrassed by my own blabbing
roald. yes.
dont be ruby....its whats going on....lord knows i 've bored the chog 3/4 to death with my ramblings :)
we've all done it in our time ruby!
the spelling looked wrong no matter how I tried it. Needed my monkeys
this is a great support system
of course the spelling looked wrong, it's a weird name.
so..i discovered something this eek that surprised me...mind i may have been living in a black hole for the last 35 years of my life
welsh? hahah
:-) hurshy, no, just a foreign one.
This eek, carlee? Was it a mouse?
the story chitty chitty bang bang was written by ian flenning ( james bond author) AND...when they made the move... Broccoli who made the james bond movies..also made..chitty chitty bang bang
carlee, does that mean you are ready to leave that black hole?
Speak to me, fellow black hole dweller.
made the movie* even
we have a mouse family living under the bird feeder and they are sooo cute! Rusty and Sparky 1 and 2
I know chitty chitty bang bang. One of my favorite movies.
chitty chitty bang bang always terrified me
one of my favourites too sprite...i just never realised...
Oh God, I LOVE Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang.
another one I haven't seen....and I thought I was a movie maven
lol ruby. You have a mouse called Sparky, and I have a cat called Sparky. Put them together and sparks might fly, eh!
bang bang chitty chitty bang bang...my fine four fendered friend
they are really cute and entertain Ruby who watches them and the birds for hours
( dare u to get that earworm gone )
why did it frighten you, Silver?
oh, it was always the idea of the child-catcher, and all those kids being kept as prisoners. I used to have nightmares about it!
the first bee of the year just came into the studio -- the size of a B52!
oh I can imagine!
yay...bees!...there is hope
that's why i love mary poppins. it's the only kid's movie with no real bad guy.
the weather is wonderful
the scary ones from when I was a kid were Fantasia and Snow White. Bambi was pretty traumatic, too
nanny mc phee doesnt have a bad guy does it?
A B52??? Love shack, baby love shack!
when ena dies....
I remember being scared by Snow White! Down in the dungeons with the moving skeletons.
you know the B52's? yay for punk!
oh, maybe carlee - was thinking of older stuff.
me too! And Bambi really frightened me. I have been afraid of forest fires ever since.
bedknobs and broomsticks was the nazisi think
Roam if you want to, roam around the world. *Gets hair spray out to tease up hair*
fantasia? Where... the wizard's apprentice?
What a colourful chog to come in on.... Hi everybody :-). ((((Hugs)))) all round......
the first movie I remember was The Pirate with Gene Kelly, probably why I married a man named Kelley the first time!
hi Soodle, wb :)
{{soodle}}
hi soods
or that scene with the devil?
Hiya Soodle.
there's quite a lot of Nazi-esque imagery in the older Disney films, I think. always makes me think of those hyenas goose-stepping in The Lion King!
yes, the Sorcerer's Apprentice! gives me chills just thinking about it
who here saw the bbc series robin hood?
oh yes! A great movie, the Lion King.
I'm a Mary Poppins gal, myself!
not sure, carlee, is that the one with the music by Enya?
how about the flying monkeys in the Wizard of Oz?
no..the series...tv series
scary, rubyfoo. I liked the musical version best, the Wiz of Oz.
yes it was a TV series, carlee. A bit mystical.
the flying monkeys are not so bad. i mean i don't know, i guess they seem like it in the movie, but in the book, they are like genies - they are forced to serve for three orders whoever has this crown thing, but they aren't mean themselves.
the great stuff in the Wizrd of Oz: all the "little people" and the horse of a different color (which they did by putting jello on a white horse)
was just out a few years ago..
Munchkins, who live in Munchkin land!
i was just wondering if it gets a big less stupid..first season was grand...second season is getting stupid
they had munchkin conventions every year 'til 2009 but now they're all gone.....
laser
carlee: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =Z8jmZ77-bvw&feature=related This one?
how many words are in today?
the funny thing about the wizard of oz books is that they don't READ scary at all! very different feel from the movie. even with the bad guys - there are sort of safeties - like they could cut you into a thousand pieces, but you wouldn't be dead, because nobody can die in oz, you would just need to get someone to put you back together again.
sorry, I guess that means I've worn out my welcome, losing my concentration
229 in total, Mac
Rubes, Hows the patient?
Argh! 95 has pretty well exhausted my imagination.
i tried reading them as a kid hursh..but just couldnt get into them...
hurshy: you know the other books? My son has all of them, I think, I used to scour used book shops for them
i think they are terribly fun!
planning an escape from the hospital.....
weren't the trees so scary, though?
i have all of the original ones by l frank baum, but not the later ones by other authors.
yes..i think the trees scared me the most
I was still reading them to him long after he could read them himself, just for the fun of it
Humming the theme from 'The Great Escape' for Ruby's DH.
it's odd to me that they made the movie feel so much scarier.
I love the Wizard Of Oz books. And Baum's other books as well. The Life And Adventures Of Santa Claus is one of my favorites. You can get them on Amazon and used at biblio.com
and they made dorothy so much older.
hello friends! phantom today: napoleon (like the dessert, not the Frenchman)
we are not in kansas anymore...
but Judy Garland was wonderful!
i loved the jd fitsgerald books..great brain books
hi Triffles, lovely to see you. How are you, moodwise?
hi trifs
well she can sing, that's for sure. but dorothy was supposed to be more like 8.
very well, thank you! how are you?
hello trif: I'm fading.....
sorry if this sounds a silly question, but do all you ladies know each other offline? you all seem to be such good friends!
"I'm melting!" (another line from the movie
am glad, Trif :) I am still down with the flu, but otherwise good.
very few of us know any of the others offline, silver
and not to be peevish, but the music for the robin hood series was supplied by Clannad, not enya...
Difficult to get an 8-year old acress who can act and sing, though.
silver: we span the globe and know each other from here and from e-mails
Silver Rocket: almost nobody does know other players IRL. This is just a wonderful community.
i've met sprite and atalante once but only after knowing them here.
darn, Trif, you are SO right. Clannad it was. Silly me.
they are supportive and wonderful, as each of us goes through tough times.
it's okay sprite, I swear, I wasn't being snarky!
there have been some get-togethers though.
where are you, silver?
I am giving myself the morning off sunday school today -- wicked!
ohhh...well that's really nice then! it's unusual to come across a place so friendly.
I love Clannad. But some of Enya is lovely too.
uh oh, trif, the flying monkeys will get you!
did the series get any better trifs/...or should i just give up now?
it is true, Silver. I think this community is pretty special and darn precious. We have the occasional flare, but it is rare. And usually it is quickly solved too.
Sprite, did I tell you, I answered an ad on craigslist to make a costume for a woman who turned out to be a professional clown. She is SO nice, but the costume turned out to be WAY harder than I anticipated. But I finished it, she picked it up yesterday, and she LOVED it. A real self-esteem booster!
sigh... i am so stuck.
i know scarlet IRL but she no longer plays
wean
Michael Praed is worth sticking around for, carlee....
sorry - didn'tvcheck where i was typing
wowser Trif! WTG! Must be good 'publicity' too, if the lady is a pro.
when does he show up? i am about 1/2 way through season 2 and its almost painfu; for me atm...and hotel babylon is starting to annoy me too
isn't this IRL?
if it is that series, carlee, it is the best Robin Hood I have ever seen. But one must love the mystical part to enjoy the series. I did. Big time.
Hang on in here, Silver, because the minute I win the lottery I am paying for a world-wide Babble meet-up. Las Vegas is my proposed venue!
I am hoping, yes....I learned so much making it. Lots of new seams and techniques I have not used before
yes indeed, soodles!
you are a miracle, Trif.
I think maybe we are not talking about the same Robin Hood series....the one I am thinking of, with the Clannad music, was about 20 years ago
errrr rubyfoo, no... this is what they call virtual ;)
i once went to boulder city but couldn't persuade DH that we needed to drive the final 10 miles to Las Vegas - so I still haven't seen it lol
just kidding, hahah
Needle + Sally: does not compute.
yep, that is the one I meant too, carlee and Trif.
very cool for you trifs
haha! I'll have to stick around then - never been to the states ;)
las vegas is one of the places in the world i never ever ever want to go.
this one was i think 2005 bbc
that's how DH felt
Where are you Silver?
just watch, Expert, Las Vegas, that will give you the idea!
stick around, Silver, you are very welcome here :)
Sheesh. I haven't won the lottery yet, and they are squabbling.....
I have never been that compelled to visit Vegas, but if given a free ticket, and the chance to meet all my babble peeps, I would GO
I went to 2 small meetings there when I was working
Soodle, wherever you organise that babble meet, I will be there.
no worries soods...i'll be along in a heartbeat :)
but the gambling is a problem; I love it, but always lose
well that is a finite problem, rubyfoo. We will keep your money safe, lol.
i never gamble... see the sights...do the shows...
see the sprites...
perfect, then, I'm on my way! hahah
well that's very kind, thank you Sprite :) and I'm in Spain, Sally!
aaah, another part of the European contingent
anybody know if there's a list in anybody's profile? i finally got to 90% after much painful toil...
You should get the es 7/32 very easily, then, Silver!
I think Volleydee has a list in her profile, Hursh
thanks for that one sally!
VolleyMomdee has a list
big kiss for that, sally!
thanks soodle, chessy
ah great, I don't think we have many chatters from Spain yet. Lovely, Silver!
espanol
very very good, rubyfoo!
now i am seeing phantom espana
Not a word I would have allowed, but I'm not running Babble :-)
Good clue, ruby!
Can I take 7/32 to mean seven letters and thirty-two points? Nice clue, thank you!
oh no, so sorry...slinking off into the sunshine.....
Isn't Ardilla in Spain? Haven't seen her around in a while.
it must have another meaning. let me check.
i love the less touristy parts of spain but also loved Bilbao and Barcelona
Ardilla is in spain, but because she is stationed there
yes Silver, exactly, that is what it means
and Marc Freeman is in Andorra, which is close
Yes that's right Silver, if we give each other clues we only give the first two letters and the points score.
TY ruby LOL
Silver, how did you find the babble site?
pertaining to that country or its inhabitants, it is written without a capital and hence a valid babble word
thanks sprite -- now can you explain why our favorite volcano is allowed?
Oh, through my lecturer. I'm considering applying for a year abroad to study in the UK and I thought it'd be a good way to keep my English fresh.
Then why isn't erse allowed? Hmmmmmm?
argh, those alt spellings with vowel-diphthongs drive me nuts!
bye everybody, I need some sleep!
bye ruby
the volcano is just a word for mountain I think.
((((Bye Ruby))))
happy sleep, ruby!
it is annoying about erse!
bye ruby. Good luck with the escape plans.
*poof*
ugh....so bloody typical... just found the ar bottom word..i just never ever SEE it
ty sally
Obviously a pure mind carlee.
{{hugs for all of you sweeties, plus silver!}}
byebye ruby ~~~~
all this espanol made me think of another spanish word - part of a song title - que se** se**
etna isn't only a volcano, it is also a word for a burner, a gas burner used in laboratories; has an air valve to regulate the mixture of gas and air. A bunsen burner is a synonym.
whatever will be, will be.... the future's not ours to see.... Yet another earworm!
Whatever will be, will be. The future's not ours to see...
Snappity snap Sprite.
but the se4 is ion the grid...
bye rubyfoo, all the best for you and hubby
ah, thanks sprite
*grins* We sound great together, Molly.
Just quietly giggling at the thought of someone using Babble to keep their English fresh (not laughing at /you/ Silver). You will speak some very strange sentences!
that's sort of cute, actually. the burner is a teeny little volcano....
moooollllyyy - you have to go to the PB....
but your vocabulary will increase exponentially
The sn4 is also in the grid, Molly!
I think that is where they got the name from indeed, Trif. We used to have an Etna fornace (sp?) to cook on.
furnace.
Was that your escuse for the burnt toast, sprite?
that's the hope, Glantarell :) and may I say...nice snow angel!
but usually the furnace is what is used to heat the house....trying to think what else you would call it. A stovetop is what you mean?
Good morning!
Ywis, I am feeding my inia. I jumped over a haha. Was impressed by the crwth that day...
hi there car.ee long time no see
forno is the word for oven in some languages, so perhaps it was an oven?
car!!! shhhh - I am skipping sunday school
My first ever snow angel LOL - done about 5 weeks ago - and I am old enough to know better at 54!
hi Carleekat!!!!
Silver, the PB is the Penalty Box, where bad babblers (ones who use grid-words in the chat log) are sent. Usually though, theres nice things to be found there, like chocolate and cabana boys....
Now where have I put my etui? Tssk.
hows u?
I noticed!!! ; )
crwth is in the puzzles/ It's welsh
ah, yes, furnace for the spelling, and I think stovetop is correct for what I meant. 4 gas pits.
Well done Glantarell! Snow angels are good for the soul! Everyone should make them!
Or we just call it a hob sprite.
glantarell, how many syllables are in your surname?
I am hanging in Carlee. You?
love it, Glantarell! Never too old to enjoy life.
3 syllables - and it is pronounced just as it sounds
recovering from chocopalooza :)
car, did you get my text last night, with the photo in it?
a hob? Ah, that I will remember. Thanks Sally and Trif.
we don't really get snow here (Seville)...make up for it with our gorgeous summers though!
thank you glantarell. my son and I greatly enjoyed the Dark is Rising series, and we did have a laugh giving the welsh names in that book a go
Yes and i responded! well done you!
Did you get my message about Colin Firth?
ah, thanks Soodle! Don't know what use I'd have for a cabana boy though ;)
my husband loves Spain, Silver. But I cannot cope with heat so easily. He claims north of Spain has lovely weather and is beautiful though.
she paid me double what I quoted her, because she liked it so much!!! and immediately hired me to make her something else! wheeeeee
Oh, something might occur to you, Silver....
OK...but you can't complain about it then!
I'm sure we can provide some cabana girls as well, Silver.
I did, yes, thank you! I have that set as a series recording, so it will DVR itself. But OH the thought of a whole delicious hour of listening to him!!!
Welsh is easy because all pronunciation is consistent (except Y)
And where were you at 10:15 last night that you did not answer the phone, Missy?
welsh easy? Yeah sure. Just like rocket science.
upstairs, tucked up in bed.
Will the P words ever end?
It's easier to learn than English,unless youllearn English as your first lnguage
With whom....
Tee hee!
certainly not the anderson oil man....
I would love to le5 welsh, Glantarell!
But...such an easy target now...
there's a fabulous course called 'Cadw Swn' - which is available online
*writing that down right away*
it not only teaches the language but is based around giving you folk tales and cultural klnowledgetoo
oh that is just wonderful. I am a language girl, but also very much into folk tales and background too.
i know when my welsh classes are working because i dream in nwelsh and i always dream in welsh when i listen to Cadw Swn
oh, I love love love folk tales!
dreaming in a language you are le5ing is always a good sign
i listen to it when I'm about to go to a welsh language cultural festival we have every year so that i have some hope of making myself nunderstood LOL
Whenever I travel to a new city I always go to a book store and get a book on local ghost stories! So fun!
which reminds me -- car, do you still have that book of short stories you let me borrow a few years ago....I think they were all ghost stories?
oh Car, that would scare me! I'm a wuss. I think that's the word...
i have NO idea where they would be, but yes i am sure I do.
maybe I could come look for it?
if you're interested in Welsk folk tales, there is a collection of stories written at least 800 years ago called 'The mabinogion'.
ok..well..am half way... i am going to toddle off for a bit....ttfn * poof*
I can do so today. Do you remember the topic/city?
Bye Carlee! Nice to "see" you!!!! ((hugs))
I think it was one of your course books from college. I know it was a fairly thick anthology, and they were all mystic stories
nothing wrong with that, Silver. I once read 'The Entity' and I didn't sleep for ages. Slept with the light on when I did too.
Good grief! You have quite a good memory! If anywhere, maybe upstairs in the barn part of the house.
bye carlee!
The Entity!!! OMG Sprite! No! Too Scary!
I am looking for one in particular, to use with a student. It was a story of two women that could hear each others thoughts, one in america and one in holland or germany, I think
brb
can we make that work for us too, Trif?
Again...your memory astounds me.
bfn Sally
I agree, car.ee!
LOL sprite, I DID think of us when I was telling the student about it!!!
OK...I have to go and get ready for Church. BTW, Trif....coming over for any of the superbowl tonight? I need to go shopping.
hahaha I should think so, Trif! We are close to that goal already, i think.
my memory astounds me too, car, but not in the way you think. I remember stuff like that, but forget to go to stuff on a regular basis.
I think we are a go, car
any clues for the top left r?
the top left R has no words, hun :D
the one below it
Whee! I have cocktail weenies for Tristan and I think I am going to do some nachos. Should I do a mac & cheese too? What else would you all like/
lol I knew you meant that, just couldn't resist
as opposed to the one to the right
pssh!
i only have the horrid popular music for that one, glan
i have that and an anagram of the same letters
ra**ody in blue is one. Switch last 2 letters for another one.
Ra 4 & 5...burn to the ground, but with an alternate spelling
meaning a asort of file
I am bringing some pork sandwich thingies
then to make pencil-written text disappear = to e****.
TY car.ee
and the thing to do it with is an e*****.
yummmmmmmmmmers!
hello all

Hi Kallia!
Hi Kallia

I am taking a break before starting to paint - duck egg blue
silver, are you still here?
nice colour
what's G doing?
that sounds lovely glan!
oh yes, still around, thank you - was just tidying up a bit. my room mate is an art student as well, so things tend to get messy around here.
He's making lots of noise in the bathroom - in between walking the dog, going to the shops, smoking a fag, cooking breakfast etc etc
hello everyone :)
not much then lol
You're an art student silver?
hi cybernan
Hi Cybernan
hi nan
not sure if I have the enthusiasm to start this grid
oh yes, in my second year here at the university of Seville :)
it is a good one though, Kallia. Lots of series to be found.
I have 131 left and keep putting words in that i put on earlier...
by the way, have you seen this blog, glan? http://villaanna.blogspot.com/2008/03/ for-love-of-duck-egg-blue.html
Love coming on early like this and seeing all the european players that I haven't been able to catch up with for a while :)
art theory or art practice? painting, ceramics, mixed media, or?
silver, in answer to your earlier question, Car.eeyore and I are sisters, and there are several other families of babblers here
No Trif, i will look
my son is going to art school in september, silver. yay!
morning, all! stopping in briefly before church...
families as in blood, as well as families in spirit, Trif :)
hi uusue
Well, I never knew you and Car were sisters, Trif!
hi uusue
morning uusue!
hi soodle
seriously, soodle? kadresa is my other sister, and aknitter is my cousin. It was she who told us about babble
When I retire, iof I have the money, I would like to do the art degree that i should have done when I was 18 - when I was too busy being hormonal LOL
hi soodle
haven't seen aknitter in ages. Tell her hi from me if you speak with her, please.
you will have spent it all on art supplies before then Glan lol
Hello Nan. Trif - I'm amazed!
mainly practice, although I dabble a little in theory, history etc as well.
Not buying any more Kallia - trying to use what I have LOL
ah yes - prepare to buy more paint than you ever thought possible ;)
watercolours, acrylics or oils?
where have I heard that before? oh I remember ISAID IT!!!
will do, sprite
congratulations to him, Trifioso! Hope he'll enjoy it
sounds good, Silver. If you are going to hang around here and maybe become pro, we'd love to see some of your work in the pictures :)
I was fibbing though
nice to see so many families on here!
I hope so too, silver. I know at Mass Art (where he is going) they have a supply room called the "restore." If you have leftover bits from a project, you can put them in there for others to use, and they do the same. isn't that a great idea?
that is a brilliant idea.
I just looked at that duck egg blue blog. drool. Perhaps I shud start a turquoise one...
and copper...would be good Glan
I was so inspired by that blog! I want to redo all my rooms in it now...so peaceful and fresh
Everything, Glantarell! Personally I prefer to work in oils, but that's just me. I hope you get the chance to study it. You'd better not mind getting messy ;)
My fave colour combo LOL
I know that of course lol
the messier the better
I am not one of life's neat and tidy people as far as art is concerned
I can vouch for that!
is your room still tidy?
speaking of art, Easel is a big ol phantom today!
Silver - I did an oil painting once but got fed up of waiting for the paint to dry. Kallia and I bought soem paints recently which have to be heat set to dry - like permanently open poil paints.
fireflies! Lovely grid, and even better company. Thanks all, I have a load of fun with you all.
wd Sprite and bye
My room is perfectly tidy because i haven't done anything in there since you were here Kallia!
huzzah for sprite!!!
bye sprite
Bye Spritey. Congrats :-)
pompom toss for sprite
hooray, sprite!
thought you were yesterday evening
didn't - wnet and played on my 'puter instead
bye sprite
Hi again. I'm back. I think I need to list. Someone mentioned earlier that volleymom posted one. Does anybody know her approximate ranking?
out of the way
oh yes Glan, you'll waste half your life waiting for them to dry, but I find it exciting that after you've laid the paint you can still manipulate it...possibilities are endless!
note
gramma, someone said yesterday that she was about 8 down on Who's Hot.
oops
I suspect I prefer acrylics Silver
ty
anybody have a clue for the bpttom right hand corner O? I have the greek drink but can't see the other....
well, I'd love to see some of your work sometime, Glan - if you're happy with sharing!

Put your hands on** the table, Giantarell.

thank you nono

i should just lay down but then i start coughing!!
hi TO, hope you are well
i'm trying to finish this grid as i've promised the bairn a games afternoon and some picky bits
I could have done without adding up the P words ..... 49 of those buggers
what are picky bits, lilliann
like crisps, sausage rolls, min sausages, pizza.we don't normally have things like that on a sunday but as i haven't got the energy to cook a dinner we're having picky bits instead
don't you just hate it when you can get every word but one from a tile?
go and play lilli -- you can play word games when you're old and grey like me!
sounds delicious
were' going to have breaded garlic mushrooms and onion rings and raw veg with dips
oh I love onion rings

she's having a shower 1st nan and getting into her pjs early so we can just chill out

I must remind her
liver op?
She has sent him a few e-mails but no reply.
oh, that's not good
Is that worrisome?
liver transplant. he got out of hospital then went back in. Haven't heard anything in weeks.

Send out posse.
He was having problems with the drugs he had to take - he was losing weight as they made him vomit

you have to extend the babblet chemical en4, ursh.. tack on the enzyme ending

aloy - can you explain the babblet chemical for me?
tx aloy dont quite know how - but i got it
wtg, ursh
yes, en + **e, bullfighter's cry .. that en4 appears very often in the grid, so it is a "babblet"
TY aloy - so what is the enyme ending?
enzyme even
well, I guess I can say it now.. enzyme ending = ase, sugar ending = ose, robot ending = oid, etc. etc. etc.
oh, TY, I see
yvw (-:
I didn't do chemistry at school as you can tell :-)
ah so.. if you had only had a crystal ball !
I had to chooe between latin and chemistry - hated them both, what a choice!
I enjoyed latin, didn't enjoy chemistry but took oodles of it eventually
so, Gian, what subject(s) did you really like?
art and english language and maths
I wanted to be an architect but they wouldn;t let girls take technical drawing
what a shame :-(
and you couldn't study to be an architect of you didn;t have technical drawing...
still, I've had some really enjoyable jobs in the world of education so can't complain
yes, my suite mate in college majored in architecture.. quite a grueling curriculum, tons of math and she was always in the graphics lab, drawing and redrawing..
Just imagine how much this world has missed out on because they wouldn't let girls take _______
totally agree MollyL
mind boggling, you are so right
Yes, I think not being allowed to take and not being allowed to wear trousers in school - even in deep snow - is what turned me into a feminist LOL
I never burned bras, but I did learn to stand up to unfair restrictions, took me a while tho
Oh I never burned bras, but as an adult have refused to accept that I should be treated in a less favourable way than a man.
Burning bras is counterproductive. What's the point of wasting a good bra? Action should be taken in other ways.
hi kids - joining in on an interesting topic -
I became a feminist in 5th grade when I was recruited to teach the Latin prayers to the altar boys - no one at that time ever thought of allowing me on the altar myself - I got the message
hi JBV.. like cold water in your face
The way women are treated in religion is a big issue
yes, and I hated that they never really learned the prayers either, I could hear them muttering up there no-mina-no-mina-no-mina vobiscum!
ugh.. at least they didn't say "dominoes"
oh and did I mention that my sister and I had to iron our brother's cassock and surplice ! insult to injury
JBV, my Dad (old school) was very against women in the military and altar girls. So it was a big chuckle for all of us when there was an altar girl at his funeral service and a female Coast Guardswoman in his honor guard at his burial.
think i may have set the iron too hot and singed it LOL
karma
"women's place".. sans consideration for the oppression

Attaway kje!!
ay clues eeded before I rush out?
Thanks kje but I still have too many for clueing--especially those dreaded p's.
ok, I'm off - hagd all
clue for the first an 5/10
at last fireworks - its taken 3 meals and an outing to finish today!
an + what you pay for an apartment minus the first letter
the un8 kje?
an 5/10 - it means beside an plus what treebeard was in lord of the rings
un8 plural of the un 7 which i think means forget something you had taught to you previouslu
never saw Lord of the rings
un 7/8 combo means to lose knowledge and the plural of that.
no matter how many times i try to teach something my students have a hard time _____ what they have already been taught

clues for them then? :)
well i think that's what they call it. i coughed and twisted and then lost my balance as i was holding on to the bed and i have no balance so didn't help and jarred myself but felt the pain go from the top of my ribs all the way down to my kidney.i can stand alot of pain but it was more than i can stan...like a sharp stabbing that lasted a few minutes, so whether it was twisted which i have heard of in hospitals or i've pulled a muscle but it has also spread to my shoulder and neck, so don't know?
water aircraft for the se

happy gaming Sea...
ty lilliann and PAV
oh, and GO PACKERS!
NO!
this true chicago bears fan will never ever support the packers... GO STEELERS
GO REDSKINS!
Good grief Cos, haven't the Steelers won enough Super Bowls?
soory!
just got an invite to go to the club for the game.. free shots for every point made.. so pray for high points!
PAV!!!!! A fellow Redskins fan! Alright!
i've just been taking ibrufen and paracetemol molly and i've had a glass of wine so that helps :)
go Packers
:-( I'm heartbroken. I thought you were good people.
lol :)
go commercials!
sounds good cos!! :)
A free shot for every point? Mind your ATM card Cos. : D
lol
im not bringing it molly lol
oh also 25 cents wings!
well, cos. not all good people have the same idiocies...I don't care for much CHeese and am into woods more than metals...
we are attending a superbowl party
you're not TAKING it with you...unless the game is at your home
:) dont worry by this time tomorrow i'll be over it.
menu includes: chili, pizza and meatballs
sounds good Boo
clue for the ze6 please?
and of course beer
our menu is huge
and wine
meatballs, wings, chili, chips and guac, veggies and dip, oreo truffles, mozzarella sticks
al4! I'm still doing my fruits and veggies diet...lost 12 lbs+ over the past three weeks...with some cheating , of course!
and shrimp
good for youPav!!!
Good going, Pav!
don't call it cheating Pav, just let yourself have the odd treat now and then - makes it easier to stick to a diet
ze6-fanatic
ty!
yw cos
yes, but on this diet, anything not fruits or veggies...goes to (ahem) waste, literally.
ah, very specific diet then?
...and no dairy or meat...protein from lentils and nuts...
cosdem, I just popped in and I saw you said no Bears fan would ever support the Packers. I am a Bears fan and I'm cheering for the Packers. Packers - Vikings never mix; but my Bears lost to the Packers, so I wish them the best.
water or non-sugared (sweetened) drinks
bears and packers --- long long rivalry. so.. :)
sounds similar to how hubby dieted during his second bout with cancer - it helped immensely plus I lost weight
I can't follow football, too many players at once and a teeny tiny ball their hugging...my nearsightedness can't grasp it...
I don't see the animosity between the teams like you see w/ the Packers and Vikings
their = they're
I'm going to lie down for a bit, bbl

YAY for lil
hi mrs T who was that just talking on the sb, he's an actor and was in road house with patrick swayze and he i thought he was sexy then even tho he is alot older than me
hi all
thanks peri
hi jmc
hi jmc
Hi all! I'm planning to watch and babble too! Daughter is hopping around in Polamalu jersey waving her terrible towel...
hubby says it's Sam Elliott
It is!
that's it mrs T, sam elliot, a very sexy older man!!
sorry, i got booted out
I'd have to agree!
He can read me a bedtime story any ol' time!
Quite sexy
ea6 pls
why ty..but i just got here;))))
hi crossy!
howdy champ fit;)
he was in a film with whoopi goldberg too
rats i missed an add
er ad
my memory went and i couldn't remember(happens all the time so you'll have to forgive me)
right column gray!
still 41 left
brb
Way to go peri! I'm at 88
lol crossy, but we wern't talking about you :( maybe next time!
Anyone hear from Red? Didn't she run her race today?
:((
I think you're a movie star crossy!
why ty champfit..did i ever tell you that you are my favorite? :))
ea6 hearing organ + once around the track
oh ok, mts cross says you're reallllly sexy!!
:)
*mrs
lol my beloved she is
National anthem!
my hubby never calls me sexy...a pain in the ar4 maybe, but never sexy!! lol :((((
she messed up the words!!!!
OMG!!!!
Not to mention the tune!
Why was that Glee creature on before her?
thanks, i thought that I was hearing things. she is really doing a bad job
Yes, I agree. I hate when they go all goofy with the tune.
Look at her, she knows she blew it.
Molly, Glee's on after the game, and they're doing Thriller.
ooh, i just missed her singing, but our commentators are taking the mick out of her!!
Not a Glee lover. Even less of a Leah Michel llover.
lilliann, I think you can consider yourself lucky you missed it.
Or lover.
i don't understand american football, i'm into rugby union, so i don't know if it's similar!
oh, ok, thanks mrs T
Still no Lickety? Thanks
I don't know rugby, so I have no idea!
all i know is that they have to wear pads and we don't!!!
i am a hockey fiend(thats ice hockey for you euros) i have tried euro fottie but the game on the field is slow and dull...on the other hand the fams kicking the crap out of each other and throwing burning seats around is quite exciting,i kind of think the cameras should be pointin the other way eh?
footie*
rugby union is better than rugby league Mrs T as rugby union tackles and get in there, they don't need pads!!
:))
I don't mind Leah Michelle, and I LOVE Glee. It's just fun!
Sounds exciting!
sometimes the soccor players should buy tickets to watch the fans;))
true!
rugby union is about tackling, broken noses, cauliflour ears and all sorts of other muscular and bone problems!
but nothing says fun like a rubber puck going across the ice at 150 mph and careening off of someone face;)
boohyaaa!
lol
sounds good crossy...not!!! lol
Does anyone have a list? Thanks
I don't know how they do it crossy. That's a little puck going dang fast!
As in, "Look Ma, no teeth!"
go onto volleydees on rankings peach
many a chomper has been left on the ice for fans to pick up and take home
Thanks much lilliann.
yw peach
i'm watching superbowl and have no idea what its about!!!!!
how long is it??
Lilliann, Rugby is a brutal sport. I dated a rugby player in college. It took me a month to learn the sport, as a spectator.
Hey, teeth would make great hockey fan jewelry.
it's telling me on tv, it'll finish 4AM!!!
OK lillian...just pretend you like the Steelers and root for them, ok? :) My husband was born in Pittsburgh.
the last big soccer tourney i gave it a honest try..it was the first place team vs the last place they ran back and forth and the final score was 2-1 :/
Black and yellow black and yellow black and yellow black and yellow!
Lilliann...no scrums...more protection on the players and lots more penalties.
*Stuffing some nachos in Lil's mouth*
I'm really a Colts fan, but I'll root for Greenbay to balance this crowd out
no as fun to watch as it used to be
ooof, Molly! No nachoes please~! I'm already full of Buffalo Wild Wings!
and it is simple lilli it is about your team getting the ball into the end zone (a very large goal) the most times
it is molly, i've been bought up on rugby union. my dad played years ago and my brother still plays at 45, scrum half. i was banned from the changing rooms when i was 2 as i went along the line as the men were drying themselves and pulled their private bits!!lol
i am rooting for greenbay because one of the players went to my high school
fumble!
fumble
punt receiver dropped the ball!
green bay kept the ball
P.A is gonna win
omg, lilliann, i am rolling with your comment. the mental images that I have are priceless and definitely X-rated.
you know it is always more fun to watch tv with babble friends
cheeky lill has always been CHEEKY
1st en7 pls
Lilliann!!! That is a PRICELESS story.
en + Spanish greeting H*** + throw the ball to home b***
*Readies a cupcake should Lil start that black and gold crap again*
my mam was most upset joey as me and my brother were banned from the dressing room until after all the men had a shower so my dad wasn't happy!!
that was for you Peri
http://tinyurl.com/458mdaa
Why can't I sing Black & Yellow, Molly?

and before you say it, i know they are referees!!lol
greenbay??
i still need eleventy billion P words, dammit
the green and yellow since most people here seem to be rooting for the steelers
need hints lil?
yes!
*checks the stats in fear*

eleventy billion?
*gulp*
oh ok jmc, i'll root for the green and yellows...what are they called??

I'M achy and feel crap so if you want some before i go to bed great, if not...who cares!!!!!lol

No I am fine, Lilliann. rest well and have pleasant dreams

With ya there!
oh dear lilli
*makes a warm lavendar compress for lilli*
anyone pouting is unpleasant!

HEY ALL!!! *hugs lilliann*

i only buy armands
hi stiddie
Evening, Stidmama
hi stid....
hi stid :))))
bbs
Hi ((Stid))
I don't even know what godaddy is. I am so out of touch
I am not sure what it is either besides it is a website
and it is very sexual
it provides domain names and websites
we are not it
I noticed that, emphasis on the breast and that girl fanning herself
not it's target market
oh I see jmc, nothing that I would need
(although I do business with them)
just butting in, between ironing...what do all the long lines mean across the fiels and then all the little lines??
(field
totally confused!!
they let you know how far they took the ball during the play
they have 4 tries to get 10 yeards
*yards
long lines across field mark off five yard increments, the little lines are one yard
so what are all the liitle lines?
have to put tom's bread in oven. brd
brb
oh ok, ty
Yard markers..
they are yard lines and the bigger ones are 10 yards
rugby union is still better, not as confusing and no pads!!
well any game you don't know is confusing
why have all the lines and they keep stopping!!
because when the player with the ball hits the ground the play is over
They stop when someone is down, and get to go again. They have 4 "downs" to keep moving on the field.
hello everyone.
we play for 40 minutes non stop and 10 minutes break and 40 minutes again with extra time!
hey bugs!
hi bugs
clues for the 8s please?
I am watching the game too but we don't get the same commercials. ;(
no?
bummer
very confusing!!
that is half the fun
Sadly, our government thinks we need to maintain our Canadian identity by seeing bank commercials instead of award winning entertainment.
hi bugs, off to iron..
wow that really sucks bugs
then they show them on the nightly news for us! LOL
that is government censorship!
Nice to meet you liliann
well, that is NBT. Will stop by again later to try for halfway. **Hugs all** *poof*
GoDaddy is a web hosting provider, among other things. Their Superbowl commercial of a few years ago boosted their revenue by millions of dollars.

nm on that, ty for clue
there is also a un8
lol Lilliann, I agree
helmets! padding!!!
got that ty, hat is the other 8?
hello to everyone who arrived while I was tending to the dryer
So my son, who has been an on and off Superbowl viewer, is now glued to the set for those Pea people. Blech.
it didn't used to be lilli
thanks mom.x
hello mom
oh i love sam i am
se 8/45 compound word
er, do you mean will.i. am?
he did a great bit for the mccain obama race
Hi ((TO))
he put their words to music
why are they wearing helmets like they are geting on superbikes??
lol yes will.i.am
be careful lilliann. These guys love their game (even tho Cdn football is better)
i got confused with dr suess
LOLOLOL have another jack
out of jack working on brandy
crap they are going to yak
can i get clues for the z words please
i think i will go scramble an egg or something
they have to yak so they can set up the field with the stage
actually the incidence of concussions used to be very high
lots of enthusiasm
lillianne, this game is so rought they get concussions even with the helmets. They think it makes them invincible
the helmet is the one thing i think is a goo thing
be careful, why!! our rugby players play without helmets, padding and tacklle and get in there more and i bet they don't get paid as much!!
do they but heads?
my son played football and I always worried about spinal cord injury
really, lil. scientists have shon that they suffer lasting brain damage
Perfect JMC! sam.i.am and pees her pants.
sure Tijani, hello and ze 4/9 = eager desire and the 6/33 is the person who have the desire
when i think of Mohamed ali when he lit the olympic torch at atlanta
yes, they but heaeds, broken noses, ripped and cauliflower ears, dislocATED SHOULDERS ETC ETC
what is the other 8 besides un 8 pls?
i did NOT pee my pants!
hi just testing to see if my icon has changed

Hi Diz

No JMC, Fergie peed her pants on stage. Pretty disgusting.
se8/45 a type of flying object used for landing on water
he got hit just not as much as some
yep it has, will have to have more lessons in shrinking photos in future...LOL
tyanks mom

let's hope Fergie peed before the show
why lil?

oh one time in concert she wet her pants
what is up ith fergie an peeing you lot?
i hope they all did
lil was saying that about me too
*glares at lil*

what? i didn't say anything about you peeing, jmc ???
I sure hope there is a list somewhere
no no and volleymom dee
i hate this sort of music!!!!!!!! does my head in!!!!
yes you did you said i peed my pants :-(
peeing your pants in a dark suit gives you a warm feeling but nobody notices.
when did I say that?
lol mom not in the short of an outfit
pardon me while i get up and dance
brb
go for it TO
God, I miss good music.
mea culpa it was molly
i've glared at you jmc??!!
I don't know who the Black Eyed Peas are (until tonight) but have the sound down
oooh it's Usher
we play this in aerobics class
I miss music period. did the person who was supposed to write the melody go on strike or something?
Smart move Mom.
they blend hip hop with jazz and rock and pop
but now that i read it again she was refering to fergie
dance music
What melody Mrs. T?
I did not say anything about you, jmc
not listening music
no you didn't lil i apologize
ouch, that hurt
Yep! and OUCH! those splits had to hurt!
Hello, I was the one who brought up Fergie peeing her pants on stage. Google for pictures if you missed that classless event.
np, jmc :) I wouldn't do that
on purpose she did?
yay TO, you know nore about the popular music than i do! go TO!!! you rock!! :)
oh Molly I think I will pass on that one. :-)
molly do you think she did it on purpose?
TO is our music guruess
No, apparently she doesn't know enough to use the bathroom before going on stage.
THIS is why i like the black eyed peas!
She said she did it on purpose... she was on stage and she had to pee and there was no time to stop
*goes to the pb happily*
great lyric je
ick well see if she were a boy she could of hid and peed in a cup
i love this song...dirty dancing, my most favourite film!!
I wish I was one of those ne4 people dancing!
now they've changed it!!
they look like cheese heads!
Guns and Roses and Bill Medley should sue these people.
Lilliann, I turned the sound up when you typed that but then it had changed
and it sounds crap!!
that's it, that's halftime?
okay then
Hello to Mrs T and all other lurkers!
i know mom, i was looking forward to the song and then they changed it and it was awful!!!!!
Had to walk away for a sec, and when I came back there were cube-headed people! Wha...???
Jeesh, my kid even walked out on that.
liliann: you cannot have sound set up for the folks live and also for a tv broadcast. something always auffers.
Hi Bugs
dinnertime
TO is speechless
Hello!

so sorry to hear that. it would have been fun to have you here.
it could have been fun
good nite, all.
es7?
ok, time to turn this football crap off and decide about dinner. bbs

night, mrs t
es 7 - spanish in spanish
bye mrs T
thx TO
nite mrs t. tc
ty TO
how the hell is that acceptable? oh ell lili, perhaps you 'll like glee.
weird an ad for an ad
i'm off to bed too, nite all, sweet dreams and tc.xx
bye lilli
lilliann...i think the sound was screwed up. Fergie's mike wasn't on at first, and you couldn't hear the music behind the singing. Odd!
maybe it sounded okay in the stadium
champ:having staged live music for 13 years, anything can happen!
night, lilli
I guess...unfortunate considering the event!
if you see a greenbay packer with 30 on his back he went to my high school
my rdio station broadcasts live concerts every friday noon on NPR. The live sound and the broadcast sound and the recorded sound are all different.
Cool jmc!
But still...THE SUPER BOWL!
ok *poof*
bye TO
e had a show go dark. turns out a fan pulled the plug from the generator to the stage electrical feed, took the sound guys 1ominutes to figure it out.
Lovely! More excitement than you needed, I'm sure
night, TO
fan lucky fan did not get a shock
bbs
when they had 5000 people at the lincoln memorial to honor Dr King and put a plaque where he stood the lights went out and the poetry jam was done in the dark without a mike
k
pe5 after writing implement?
that could've been poignant, if you were able to hear any of it.
pe + *** Chaney...think monster movies
it was--most of the people left and just a few dozen stayed to listen
shirloc - poor people
how can that spanish word be in here, when it's an enye not an en. No tilde in this grid that I see. :(
sorry, clued wrong word
thx lbd, got the poor people champ
one of those things, rasta!
happens rasta
i think i'm asking for the wrong pe5
love the talking etrade babies!!!
I agree with Champ about the sound. It was totally screwed up. The sound of a show like that is geared more for TV than it is for the live crowd.
writing stick + mr. gore
love the e-trade babies too!
oo the pe5 system
sorry ty lbd i got distracted
This Superbowl is going to go down for most screw ups ever. 400 people did not get to sit in their paid for seats. Christina A blew the lyrics to The National Anthem. The fly over after The National Anthem was not seen because the stadium ceiling was closed. And piss poor half time sound.
TOUCHDOWN!!!!
damn!
wow i would be pissed if i paid hundreds of dollars for seats. . .getting my money back would not do it
I agree Molly. The papers are talking about what a debacle the whole week was, with the screwy weather and all.
hmm 135 left
is there a list?
65...really slow going
volley dee has a list
can i help with clues?
ty crystalle
this is tough, watching the Super Bowl and Babbling
(Love that coke commercial!)
Hello again. Hi Crystalle - are you OK with all the bushfires?
easier than when we were babbling during obamas inaugural
hi lynxx
x
no kidding Nef. I amchoosing to ignore the chog so I am probably missing some great clues
actually, I'm more interested in the commercials than the game at this point
actually not a bad game
Yes thankyou lynnx. We are quite a distance from the big ones. We had a small fire about 5 mins away yesterday but they had it out in just a few hours.
Thats a relief - stay safe Crystalle. Hope the others don't do too much damage
thank goodness crystlle
We had water bombers flying over the house yesterday as they put out the fire nearby. The kids thought it was great seeing them
Thankyou
i would think everyone was glad to see them
now that is a bomb i would gladly pay for!
We had the 'Elvises' flying past our place a few times during our last big fires - It makes you feel really good to see them
Australia seems to be getting it all at the moment, flood, fire, cyclone
what are the elvises?
yes over threw!
don't forget the locusts too
you have locusts too!?!?!
elvises are large water choppers on loan from the usa
nice to hear we are helping
the locusts are wiping out crops at a devestating rate
no!
that is terrible!
if it were in the US some d**k preacher would say it was because of gay marriages
back, all. je do you im?
lol
uh some TO
as if they have a direct line to god.
try me
lol jmc
Hello -- just got here -- who's ahead? Hard to tell on TV.
hi Jilli
packers 21 to 17
fb?
hi jilli
Green Bay, but only by 4
nice sack
who was favored?
oh okay i will sign on to fb
wait je,
Green Bay by 2 1/2 last I heard
Yeah, he kicked just like that in Washington.
are we friends on FB?
It was 52 yards...long way!
Hi jilli. love your icon story!
nm je, i realize you are at the limit of multitasking
I am not glad that there are two out of control fires here in WA but I am glad that for once they are not a result of arson.
how did they start crystalle
ty bugs and ty champ for the score
brb
sure!
you would think penpal would be accepted
a tree fell down because of all the wild wind we are having and hit electrical lines and the other was a result of an accident..A spark from a grinder
i need two more 7 letter words
Good evening to my fellow babblers! How is everyone?
Hi Min!
the football players with the long bushy hair are driving me nuts!
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
hi Min
hi min
hi Min
hey min
a spark from a grinder? i will assume you do not mean a sandwich
what is a grinder in aussie
a grinder here in MN is a sharpening wheel, jmc
7 letter words are ap x2, en x2, es, le, pa, un
ty crys
but why would you be sharpening a knife where it would start a brush fire
i have en7.28 entrap need the other
a grinder is for cutting, grinding or polishing
oh i see now the guy from my high school is out with an ankle injury
:-(
bummer!
so where were they grinding that they started a brush fire
en & vw & ****r beam
he was hurt in the first quarter
I feel bad for the injured players; they all got hurt in the first half (so far)
I am sure it wasn;t intentional jmc - a farmer or like would need to keep toools sharp
vw as in view? *scratches head*
vw as in vowell
en + spanish hello minus h + a type of surgery l***r

It’s just another Super Bowl Sunday I wish the Steelers win today ‘Cause then it would be a fun day If they won a victorious trophy today It’s just another Super Bowl Sunday
we have metal wires on either metal posts or wooden posts - they would be using cutting tools on those. Soooo many questions today jmc!
ooo min is a po**!
to grind the posts back. Also because of the heat in australia we have a lot of open work areas
sooorry inquiring minds want to know
i grew up in Texas -- some similarities with australia you know
that's alright - I think it is cute - you are like a small child
All I do is post poems on FaceBook, but they are just stupid little ditties like the one I just posted here.
lol thanks! at 59 that is not so bad
it was cute min
...anyway I hear it is bl**dy freezing in Texas right now - not so similar
ty
Thanks jmcnrick
ask away jmn I finished the grid yesterday I just came in for the conversation
lol well it IS winter here now
It's supposed to be sung to the tune of Manic Monday
well it is just that when it is really dry i would think you wouldn't take a grinder out where it would catch things on fire
so i found that interesting
is the guy who started it liable for the destruction?
Unfortuneately it is so dry and hot here that a fire could just start from the sun glaring down on the dry grass
ah i have been there
It is possible that the person responsible wasnt even aware . A stray spark would have carried on the wind it could have landed a far distance from him/her
when i was about 5 there was a drought in texas so bad that even in houston (which is very very humid) that the cracks in the front yard were big enough to play in
Only true arsonists would be charged I believe
we are having some strong winds here at the moment
but they are not strong enough to blow away the locusts?
whooo hoooo!
fumble!
jmc, are you cheering on the Packers too?
the only locusts we have had in Melbourne were actually blown down here from thye country on high winds!
yes because donald driver went to my high school
hey all! ((lynxxx))
oh dear lynxxx
we dont have a locust problem in this state (not at the moment anyway) there needs to be a decent summer rainfall for locusts to be a prob.
hi Stid
hope we are not in the end of days!
((crystalle))
uh that was a joke
Hi stidmama
hope we are going to have enough days to get the stidkids out of the house as self-sufficient adults...
last pa6/21 pls. do not have the pa5 before it tho
hi all
hi stid
4 left and not finding them
hey peri!
it seems strange really. In Wstern Australia the dryness is fuelling the fires but over in nsw they are having mass amounts of rain.
my last pa 6 is what happens when u get out of jail
same start per but end with beach ***d in the bathing suit
pa5/6 when let out of jail early usually put on pa****
cllues for the az ords pls?
well australia is big
ty lyn, found them both
and pa5 is pa6 minus last vowel
ty jmc and crystalle
az+ common word associated with bullfighting
ty crys
whoo hooo! TD!
3 for Jennings
Woo Hoo Packers! TouchDown!
az+ only the ***ely
ty, sitll missing one a word but that helped!!
Done. Very boring when you need to list and Lickety is not there. All hail Lickety. Anyway must go ffed Stew. Bye
woo hoo lynx
bye lynxxx

bye lynnx
volleydee has a list
bye lyn
hi dan
YAY lynxxx and have a good day
i hate a words
lol 72 do u know which a word u still need?
oh wow. I am past halfway. Must head back out to pretend to be studying... so many things that need doing; so much prep work and so little to show for it! (I had forgotten that feeling of futility that long-term students can acquire) *sigh*
see you-all tomorrow probably. you down-under types take good care of yourselves. You are in my thoughts! *poof*
*jealous that stiddie is 1/2 way*
see you later stid mama tc
I need to do my housework. Does anyone want some clues before I go?
no i am giving up soon but thank you cryst and thanks for answering my questions
Congratulations lynxxx on fireworks! Hooray for you!
dan2bit,I have a list in my profile if you need to use it
la5/12 number 1 pls? not the error or break in coverage?
the bright light?
is it the folded cloth on front of jacket
yes ty
part of a suit jacket TO ??
sorry mine was 5/10
wow!
I dont mind answering any questions anyone might have about australia or any other topic jmc. I often ask lots of questions. Only way to learn lol. I never knew a sandwich was also a grinder. I like grinder better than sandwich so i might "borrow" the term
only 3 points separate them now
it is on a long roll -- other names--po boy, hogie, sub
A grinder is a very specific type of sandwich, though
wow this is a tight game
anyway, I really am going now. I will be back at the flip. Happy Babbling. BYE
grinder (at least to my knowledge) isn't any kind of sandwich - it was used in new Jersey for "sub" sandwiches - served on long buns with lots of meat, cheese, lettuce, veggies etc.
yes i just read about grinder sandwiches on google they sound delicious!
Po boy is short for poor boy, what they're sometimes clled up north. Also Hero, same sandwich.
especially when you skipped breakfast!
po boy is southern for poor boy
This is a great SuperBowl. I've seen so many when it's a one-sided blow out
Goodbye crystalle!I will see you tomorrow in the chog
yeah it is a good game
needs more sacks though
grinder is boston - toasted sub
ok really am going now. Bye
my favorite of all those is an oyster po boy that i had in new orleans a few months ago
freshly fried oysters with tartar sauce on a toasted crusty french bread
*drools*
clue for ou not greek booze pls?
thats what im talking about!
evening
hi jes
Hello jesdraggon!How are you doing? Welcome to grid
feeling better today, jam?
yes ty
hi jes
i never sulk for long
that's good :)
met some new young people at meeting today
they are coming over to dinner next sunday
did some one clue that other ou pls?
then a young couple came up and I am inviting them over another time
fun :)
don't have it TO
nm
are you going to clue it now?
some stats even?
ou5/22
ty TO
alt sp european blackbird
ah ty
no!
ou5/22:ou+beginning of striped animal + a consonant
thanks, min
i need 19 i am calling ti quits i think
bye TO
je, did your paper have any artciles on reagan today? he is on american experience tomorrow
i should quit but have gotten caught up in the game
my paper? i don't read the paper...i was at work from 8 until 6 today
yw jesdraggon
its his 100th birthday
i am not a fan TO
there were several point counterpoint editorials today
i thought he was senile from the get go. however, the berlin wall and soveit relations will be a legacyh
his get rid of regulations is a lot of why we are where we are today--nobody watching the foxes
yet dereg continues. now in PA it is electric companies
*sigh*
name me ONE instance of dereg where the consumer is better off.
too tired
there probably is one
but mostly not
imho
ok shoot.
come now. deregulation is good. not like government interference helps.
you know, we don't NEED anyone to inspect our food for Salmonella and E coli.
*ducks*
dereg of utilities is BAD. coing from one who is anti big govt
so you would prefer to work 10 hours days 7 days a week?
nm i will go back to watching the end of the game
*poof*
hugs, jam. enjoy the game :)
my employer already expects that, it's my patriotic duty and i sahould be thankful to have a job
and... actually, yeah. 10 7s would be a SHORT week for me lately...
between regular hours and emergencies and office paperwork and learning to run a business, i'm working 13 hour days all week long.
for every old timer who is weary as i am, there are 10 enthusiastic kids, one of them wrote to ay he ould come in on days off and weekends to get the job i want
tough competition... a good way to burn out fast tho, that that kid is setting himself up for.
well it sounds good but is quite illegal. unlike calling the eompoyee in at the end of the day so you are keeping her late
or requiring travel on one;s own time/weekend
how old is the kid? i thought i could work as many hours as i need to as long as i got paid for them
but i'm not a minor (obviously)
Packers won!
22. that would be overtime
hi nef :)
yeah. overtime is great for the paycheck :)
unless you're the boss and/or salary.
The plunge is done - whooohooo - what a hoot! It was so much fun - 35 degrees - no white stuff in the sky - only sunshine -cold but fun.....what a blast my team was - raised $485...couldnt ask for better. now time for bed - missed my babblers today but will catch up tomorrrow
we don't have any aithorized ot
WELL DONE Riverdance
hi and bye, riverdance :)
great, river.
ah. well, if they won't pay for the overtime, then yeah. that's a problem
And OT sucks for salaried employees. My son works 12-16 hours/day 7 days a week when he has to get a game out (he's QA supervisor for a video gaming company) and I think it has to be illegal
and i don't want to wade though a manual list to find the last 19.
congrat river - what a wonderful event and great cause
well our pay is capped, can't get time and a half
hey owl.. just coming in and i have 19 left too... wil hold your hand if you'll hold mine
It was a great cause and event - and fun too...cant wait for next year
CONGRATULATIONS River!
what was the event, river?
Congratulations Riverdance! Glad all went well today.
no i have am up too late, have a dinner date tomorrow
as soon as I can I will get pix up
sucks, TO. overtime's no fun if the paycheck doesn't reflect it.
Penguin Plunge to benefit the NH Special Olympics
ah, fun :)
i'm up too late too, but that is normal for me. one of these days i'l learn to go to sleep earlier. enjoy your dinner tomorrow
yah fun but brrrrrrrr.....cold
night all, happy babbling
sleep sweet, TO. have fun at dinner tomorrow
Our event is call ed the Polar Plunge and it is Feb. 26th
nepal
sorry. Not a WORD thoug
'course not nef. you were just starting a new topic--vacation destinations. right?
Polar Bear plunge is in March this year; should be better temps than last year (my daughter does it
Bye 72 Temple Owl! I will see you tomorrow in the log!
LOL, jes. LAST place I'd want to go is somewhere that *might* be cold this year
our water temp was 40 degrees- air today was 35 - it was a heatwave.....so much fun and the NH Spec Olym beat their record - total raised was over $517,000
very nice, River
well crud. speaking of working overtime... i will hopefully be back in a bit :)
thank you - off to bed I go - no time for the grid tonight - see you all tomorrow

ah
thanks

decided to try to get down to 100 today. Then back to the work... didn't work this morning (Mother took me shopping), and worked but felt unproductive in the afternoon (something to do with kids and Sundays and rehearsals....). So now it's close to bedtime and I feel as if I have not been making enough progress.
it's sunday, stid. you're not supposed to work
do you happen to have the az5 that doesn't rhyme with bullring fight cheer?
I'm in grad school, jes (and not Christian anyway)... LOL
or end with, i guess. not sure how it's pronounced...
no, I don't have that one...
hm. do you have that non-bullfight one?
i was trying to give you an out, stid, not comment on religion :P i ended up at work from 8-6 today, hardly keeping the sabbath myself!
no, i was hoping you'd clue it for me :P
Hello all
:-D figured... *sigh* sometimes I wish I DID have a rigorous religion to fall back on for taking days off.
az + last 3 letters of one of the earliest synthetic material
86 to go and can't be bothered
hey jill! (((many hugs))) how's you?
hi jilli! have YOU got the az words?
thanks diane!
just got that one (an unword imho)
you're welcome Stid.... and hello :-)
that's me down to 99!!! (bottles of choclit beer on the wall....)
hi Jilli :-)
choclit beer??? Ugh!
uhm. you clue hard, diane! :D
well, beer-shaped choclits... LOL I don't actually like beer!
but i got it, thanks :)
I thought dian's clue was great!
okay, down to 92. that's a good number. thanks for the help, friends! (((hugs))) see you-all tomorrow, I hope! *POOF*
i don't know crap about synthetic material, jilli. not a fault of diane's clue, just my ignorance
resting every 7th day is a good idea anyway
g'night, stid, sleep sweet
I remember my first ny*** blouse.... see-through !!
remember ny*** stockings, jes, or are you much too young?
and then there was the easy care or*** sweater :-)
whatever happened to those great or*** sweaters, just like cashmere but easy-care?
you had to wear a camisole with the blouse... now the young ones don't bother lol
heh. i'm sure i've worn it, but i don't wear stockings. also, it doesn't help that i misread "last 3" as "first 3" somehow the first time i read the clue... my brain really isn't fully functional lately!
or am I thinking of lovely soft acrylic?
are all the en words related to the en4?
I don't wear stockings any more, but during WW2 ny***s were treasures because the fabric was used for parachutes.
are there 2 or 3 ae words ??
3
time/time/space
my mom had a long gown made out of used parachute silk.... you could almost crush it into a small ball... I loved to touch it !!
diane, there's a list in flosey''s profile and in volleymomdee's -- 3 ae words
thanks jes
I did get the list but I think I missed the very top word when copying and pasting....
I'm watching a fascinating PBS programme about monkeys
en5, please?
to join up... ( one of the spellings )
ah, thank you. didn't realize that was a word without a double ending
welcome :-)
hi
hi herin
oh, I'll be back later -- now a programme about Alistair Cooke of old Masterpiece Theatre fame. Nice to see you good people but this grid is a bore.
How is everyone
bye, jilli, hi herin
great thanks herein.. It's been a nice lazy Sunday. How are you ?
Hi
Lazy Monday
are you having any serious problems where you are, herin ?
weather wise, and fires etc. ??
No thank goodness. We were out and did get flooded
es7 please?
was the flooding bad herin?
The street we were on was knee deep
a romance language jes.... think of country near portugal
This was one of my photos: http://tinyurl.com/6fgjtjw
thanks, diane
I was just going to break it down, but you got it !
thts a lot of water herin. Was there much damage to your property and belongings
That was out and about. We just had a rain trickle down the wall. The only damage suffered is my arm from the change in weather giving me horrid ezxma
yep :) just had to figure out how to spell it with no "i"
flooding? Do: (also, hi all)
I don't suppose 41 minutes is going to be enough to start/finish this grid...
might be plausible if I list perhaps.
not something i could do, dfm, but maybe you're faster than me? also, no lickety tonight.
hi all, just got here, and gonna aim for halfway . . .
hi gwen
HI Gwen
haven't used lickety's for a while now :o) Probably won't start, making myself some foodses...
nice to be back, buddies 8-D
hi dfm .. no lickety list but several lists, but more difficult to work with.
i have a ze4, can someone give me stats for the other z?
ze6
TY, hunting . . .
egads, the pa's will destroy my brain!
found the ze6, someone fish me! lol
any clues for the pa5, 6, 7 before the first pa4?
pa5 has three diff vowles in a row, rhymes with a really really long time
pa5 and 6 a metric foot
thanks
pa7 is same first 3 letters + *** diego
oops and a vowel
thankee
got it, ty crystalle!
wheeeee ! fireworks...
yay diane!
wd dian
wtg diane !!! ~~~~ !!!!!
and now for the pe's...
thanks everyone... it's a real challenge without Lickety's list, although lists from friends are mighty helpful !
well, gonna quit now, 88 to go. about to keel over, need some food. it's been fund and POINK
huh. actually, i have all those... so on to the pl's!
sleep sweet, gwen
night, Gwen
crossy cannot sleep;(
well then, crossy can clue! :D
dammit,i missed gwen had something i brewed up for her,but then again it would be good to share with all book lovers....
reading is an intimate search and process, a matter of mood,of where we are in life, it is the intimacy with the paper,the right light, a type of seclusion and uniqueness that befalls the soul whenone comes into contact with the soul of the writer
deep eh? croosy without meds;)
lol
well i was at least hoping for a prop or 2 there:P..i am like rodney..no respect:P
po6 after southern bread?
it is definitely a matter of mood. Pissed off Crystalle can read Cinderella for example and I would just go WELL its her own fault stand up for yourself you silly girl!
or the notebook and think JEEZ mate she doesnt remember get over it!
But happy Crystalle would feel bad for cinderella and would cry her eyes out cos the notebook is romantic lol
lol
the person you are fighting is your op****** po6
ciderella is not exactly on my top ten must read list;)
evening all!
thanks, beth
lol mine either I just put my 2yr old down for a nap and read it to her
try maguire's cinderella instead, crossy. Memoir of an Ugly Stepsister I think it's called.
yvw : )
maybe typing well in ten easy lessons;))
oh, were you looking for books to put you to sleep? sorry...i actually like ugly stepsister.
but my speech com book always did the trick for insomnia for me
audio books make me drop off like a baseball bat tap to the head lol
I must confess however, that "The Selfish Giant" by Oscar Wilde is still one of my favourite books of all time
<-- takes him usually a full hour to drop off :o(
though i do have a wonderfull audio collection by a group called "the minds eye" doing lord of the rings on cassette tape with a full cast
wow. i need 20 more words, and 10 of them are s's. any clues handy for any of the sa words? only one i have is 4/4 not crazy
