2:32 am

Lickety's list is up.

2:32 am

its okay. I have tomorrow off, so I can have a bit of a lie in, provided I can fall back asleep at some point. better than the days when I have to be up and out before seven

2:33 am

argh yes. It is not so bad in the morning, but oh, those afternoons...

2:33 am

i agree.

2:34 am

the sight of seven y's is almost enough to make me quit this grid, but I soldier on

2:35 am

trifoso, they are all dead easy.

2:35 am

I found one :D *giggles* Ys tend to baffle me too

2:35 am

Well, dear peeps, I have 27 left and think I will come back later.

2:35 am

I will pass on the hugs for ruby, rose :D

2:37 am

sprite, had you and ruby met before, or is his the first time?

2:37 am

lol, great minds, sprite

2:37 am

she is gorgeous and incredibly sweet, and so his her husband, and the dogs are fab

2:37 am

very first time in real life, Trif

2:37 am

that is so exciting!!!!!

2:37 am

they have made me so very very welcome here

2:37 am

this is so awesome.

2:39 am

it is! And they have a view, you would't believe it. I am gonna take pictures! They look out over their lovely garden, then over a lake, and behind that, mountains!

2:39 am

hey sprite, tell ruby, himself bought me downton abbey christmas special, to take into hospital with me.

2:39 am

wow!!!! what a blessing to look out at that every dy

2:40 am

hang on - can't you sign in as you from their computer?

2:40 am

oh that is so sweet, rose! Will tell her.

2:40 am

yes I can, Trif, but ruby thought it would be fun if I pl6 like her :)

2:41 am

oh okay - not to mention good for her rankings!

2:41 am

plus he also bought me 2 dvds of ' little women '. the latest version, and the one i love the most, with june allyson as Jo, and elizabeth taylor as Beth

2:41 am

*grin* not sure if I will finish here, I will go join ruby and her husband again as soon as they'll let me. They are great company.

2:42 am

Of course, you all realise that that could actually be Ruby and really shes buried Sprite in the garden? Sprite should have had a codeword before she left....

2:42 am

oh rose, that is awesome. And so thoughtful of him.

2:42 am

is the campari out?

2:42 am

dachef, and they said you weren't cynical;....silly them

2:42 am

as soon as they'll let you? are you in time out?

2:43 am

I brought ruby some jenever (dutch gin). And no, it is not out yet, lol it is quite early in the morning here still.

2:43 am

ruby's husband went shopping and ruby is getting dressed etc.

2:43 am

and yes, amazing, but ruby did not invite me to watch, LOL

2:43 am

and so??? it's after 5pm somewhere in the world...like here for instance

2:44 am

lol rose, I love you

2:44 am

granny, herin said there was an earthquake in Oz yesterday - all okay with you?

2:45 am

lol Dachef!

2:45 am

yup, into bourbon number 3 here....been a day from hell. was so busy, didn't have time to take analgesia at 12 midday. it hurt, sprite. :(

2:46 am

trifoso. all okay. i was actually driving at the time, so felt nothing. himself says the whole house shook...and we are several hundred k's from the epicentre.

2:47 am

whew! glad to hear that grannyrose. it is a worrying sort of thing

2:48 am

trifoso, they seem to be happening a lot more frequently over the lastm ye4. before this, the last tremor was about 40 ye5 agao.

2:49 am

sitting nex to sprite! Hoping she'll pull up my rating (fat chance!). And Burt loves her to the point where

2:49 am

clearly you need to up your offerings to the gods!

awesome, Triffles! (sprite again, ruby is putting away the groceries now)

for goodness sake, just what sort of word is pl5/16?????

2:55 am

don't have it yet

2:56 am

2:56 am

its a spanish word for beach or something, isn't it?

le snap sprite!

2:57 am

lol Trif! vamos a al ...

2:57 am

well that explains it...how the heck would i know that? i ask you?

2:58 am

you do now... all the things we learn from babble!

2:58 am

lol, too true

3:00 am

sometimes in scrabble people tell me I use some kind of dictionary because of the crazy words I use... like etui and etna, lol

3:00 am

latee

3:01 am

sorry sorry sorry... I miss my expert!

3:01 am

I never used expert, but I did hear someone bemoaning it the other day - where did it go?

3:02 am

I still have it, at home. But not on ruby's puter.

3:03 am

oh that explains that then. I can't remember who it was that was discussing it, but it sounded as if expert had ceased working or something, and I was most confused

3:04 am

I shouldn't think so. It is just a kind of specialised browser, so as long as babble itself does not change, the expert will keep working, I guess. Maybe the list was not up? If one uses the expert for the list, it won't do much good until the list is up.

3:04 am

Expert working fine here. I can tell because I haven't done anything even remotely violent this morning.

3:05 am

:D Silly Dachef! Thanks for the laughs!

3:10 am

ok, gotta go, gonna do the flowers with ruby. *hugs* to you all and see you later. One Y still MIA and 56 left.

7:00 am

does not seem to be it girlie but ty needed that one also

7:00 am

hmmmm, probably looking at the wrong e

7:00 am

me I mean

7:03 am

*sigh* how long till kittens settle down?

7:07 am

dn,mine is still tearing the house and the other cats apart

7:07 am

and he is almost 5 months now

7:08 am

according to George Carlin, kittens have 2 neurons in their heads: one to let them identify trouble & the other to get them to it as fast as possible

7:09 am

sounds about right,just found mine in the toilet..someone forgot to close the lid...

7:09 am

mine is 5 months .. he has had an hour outside time, an hour long play while I was meant to be doing my workout, another hour after I got home tonight ... and the minute I put the damn cat wand down to try and babble he goes and sits by the front door and cries

7:09 am

lol Alycia, sounds about right

7:10 am

lol crosshair, mine has worked out how to open the lid

7:10 am

just an hour?? our 5 month old does aprox 2 hours of HARD play with our 3 year old cat and 2 hours walk outside on harness and whatever play time we throw in

7:10 am

the 3 year old is shagged right out afterwards

7:11 am

crosshair, that was 3 hours today, but it sounds like I need a 3 year old

7:11 am

then he try to play with the 6 year old alpha felamle kitty who trys to unzip his guts

7:12 am

lol, ok, I might head to bed. Not able to babble anyhow, might as well ignore the cat in comfort

7:12 am

night all

7:12 am

gn

7:13 am

i expect peace with the cats sometime in the next 2 years or so

7:13 am

though it is almost time for kitten to get fixed so that may change the dynamics

7:21 am

9:17 am

i had this fantasy last night i would get up early and go to the garden before it got hot :-(

9:18 am

Ooh! Fantasies are good!

9:18 am

... I'm afraid the weather will beat you to it today ... it's already in the high 20's (sorry pushing 80) here ... so DC must be warmer

9:19 am

it would have worked too except for those meddling . . . er except i couldn't sleep

9:19 am

Oh Shaggy!

9:19 am

it is already past 80 and my garden is in the sun now until 4

9:20 am

The cat is heading for his "spot" under my desk...it is getting warm out.

9:20 am

i may have to turn on the a/c today :-(

9:21 am

Ice coffee anyone?

9:22 am

oooo please car. . . no sugar or cream though

9:22 am

9:22 am

You got it! <pour> Here 'ya go!

9:22 am

*ah*

9:23 am

well that is one of my big money savings things in life. . . not liking A/c

9:23 am

i grew up in Texas before a/c and never got used to it and know a million tricks to staying cool without it

9:24 am

which remind me i need to close the windows in my roommates room. . . she keeps leaving them open during the day

9:24 am

I can get by without it...but I do enjoy it!

9:24 am

almost time to close them in my room

9:25 am

... my electricty bill doubles or even goes up 2.5 times in June and July ... but wife is working and I can still intimidate kid with a stern look so maybe it won't be too much this summer

9:25 am

tell the kid to go to the library . . . hahaha

9:26 am

... can't ... I'm already at the library ... and she doesn't get up until noon or 1p.m. so she doesn't notice that I've hit the thermostat until it's too late

9:26 am

haha sneaky pa!

9:27 am

Good morning, all. LOok at it this way, jmc: if you turn up the AC, you save lots of money on deodorant and water for cool showers.

9:27 am

10:28 am

LOL. Turned on the A/C before I left for work today.

10:29 am

as much as i'm tired of this rain, i'm not looking forward to 80+ degree weather. the plants need it, but I don't.

10:29 am

good thinking. We have inside blinds and outside shade on the sunny side of the house, I close off all the rooms and the core of the house stays nice. Which reminds me, time to close the back door now that it is warming up there too. brb

10:29 am

hello folks - the northeast too is in for it - it is already 88 degrees here right now

10:30 am

It is certainly sunny and fairly warm in S E England today. Half watching Royal Ascot and it is glorious there for the racing

10:30 am

much prefer to have the windows open but when it gets this hot and humid the A/C is wonderful!

10:30 am

RIVER!!!! *faint*

10:30 am

Wow, River, that's hot for NH

10:30 am

house is still really cool from the last few days. but I anticipate turning on the a/c this afternoon.

10:31 am

10:32 am

10:33 am

I need to get going too, have to print a map -- kiddo needs to take his "online" final in a real location which I have never been to. Picking him up in an hour from school... I will be glad when today is over. Mother and Matthew have a concert this evening, too. It will be a long day. *poof*

10:34 am

10:34 am

here it is not so bad,a nice 3 bedrom brick bungalow with attached garage on town lot would run about 180-225

11:44 am

but toronto is going nuts.there is 1% vacancy rate for detached homes and they are overbidding 200-500 thousand above asking prices in bidding wars

11:45 am

Glad I am not in the market for any of it

11:46 am

indeed,but many older toronto couples are becoming instant millionares,they sell the home in toronto they bought in the 60,s for 12,000 dollars,get 1.2 mil for it and buy a retirement place up here

11:47 am

Gotts go -- Poof!

11:48 am

1:06 pm

howdy mrloser.do not see you on here often'

1:06 pm

hi crossy!

1:06 pm

howdy suze;)))

1:07 pm

sounds like your weather is about the same as ours...

1:07 pm

and mr loser you need a better name..how about mr carpe diem! or mr happy...or mrthisday is mine!

1:07 pm

just went to 93f suze

1:08 pm

91 here

1:08 pm

but this is peak of the day..will ease now

1:08 pm

and we have all of georgian bay to swim in:)

1:09 pm

very nice! no swimming here except in the town pool, which costs about $8 per day (I think)

1:10 pm

:((\]

1:10 pm

poor suze

1:10 pm

that's ok, I'm not about to go out in public in a bathing suit anyway :-P

1:11 pm

common up here,we will grab some lemonade,some blt,s and go over to craigleith,there is a nice area there,but it instandly drops off to 90 feet about 20 feet out

1:11 pm

I'll bet the water temp drops too!

1:11 pm

back again, just got in and was hauled away to attend to a matter of great importance to someone else!

1:12 pm

hi flosey!

1:12 pm

it is interesting,you can free dive as deep as you can stand bob up and hoist yourself into 4 feet of water

1:12 pm

hi Sue, just reading back, how many kids can afford to go for a swim at $8. a day? that seems a bit pricy

1:13 pm

they have season passes, which is what most families get, I wouldn't use it enough though

1:13 pm

perhaps a season ticket would be easier on mom's pocket book

1:13 pm

i take the wife and son..last time i tried to swim in public greenpeace got called;)

1:14 pm

also they want to replace the pool at a cost of $40 million - for a town of 40 thousand that's a lot of money

1:14 pm

WHEW! I'll say

1:14 pm

so needless to say the referendum hasn't passed

1:15 pm

40 million?? my god,that is a hell of a pool!

1:15 pm

good there are some level headed people on the Board

1:15 pm

well, there are three pools, plus water slides, plus a kiddie area with water features and wading areas, so it is pretty nice

1:16 pm

we have a olymic size training pool here on blue mtn for the athletes..that was 2.2 mil including a dome and other attached faccilities

1:16 pm

hmmm, maybe I have the numbers wrong. It was a lot of money.

1:17 pm

how long ago was that created crossy?

1:17 pm

10 years ago

1:17 pm

("greenpeace", LOL!!)

1:17 pm

still quite a vast difference between 2.2 & 40

1:18 pm

lol,rubud..was wondering if anyone saw that

1:18 pm

maybe 4 mil suze

1:18 pm

ok, it's $6 for residents and $9 for nonresidents per day, but season passes are $58 for adults and $47 for children so that's not so bad

1:19 pm

$47 for each child in a family? or are there family season passes?

1:19 pm

everyone come to crossys for a swim!! we can have bbq ribs corn on the cob and i will dose a watermelon or 2 for the adults

1:20 pm

sounds wonderful crossy, on my way

1:20 pm

$47 per child, $15 if they are under 2

1:21 pm

sorry, under 4

1:21 pm

Where are you Crossy?

1:21 pm

ta 6/18 ??

1:21 pm

all get half in the bag and we can have a watermelon seed spitting for distance contest

1:22 pm

wow, it's been a long long time since I've done that

1:22 pm

cherrypop,you come to toronto and drive 2 and a half hours straight north to blue mountain

1:22 pm

Will they allow all of us across the border?

1:23 pm

they may,but once i am finished with everyone,they may not let you back lol

1:23 pm

we'll issue special Babble cards for easy access at the border

1:23 pm

4:03 pm

I think I know what the word is but I can't see it and it won't accept when I type it

4:03 pm

ra + cha*** begins at home. Or, you donate used clothing to cha****.

4:05 pm

THank you! I was trying to use a different form of the word.

4:06 pm

I'm not getting de5,12. Any clues?

4:08 pm

de + what you breathe

4:09 pm

Thank you! been killing me for about a half hour

I strenuously object to that word. It's not possible.

4:10 pm

yw

4:10 pm

de 5 is in deatmosphere molly

4:11 pm

Har dee har. By the way, thanks. Every time I'm in the frozen food section now, I am wistfully eying that Ben & Jerry's Karmel Sutra.

4:19 pm

Another non-word. le6. Seriously?

4:19 pm

agreed

4:19 pm

Maybe in rural Alabama. As in, I done le6 my kid brother tag along with me.

4:21 pm

. . . or right here in Tennessee LOL

4:24 pm

... or it just means "having been rented"

4:24 pm

... but that's no fun

4:25 pm

never heard of that "version" of leased LOL

4:25 pm

... true ... but it at least seems possible

4:26 pm

it is an extension of "to let" as in to rent,used quite widly in u.k and other countries

I've just been letted a holiday cottage in Wales. hi all

4:32 pm

howdy guernseygirl

4:32 pm

... evening

4:32 pm

and to the pb with ye

4:33 pm

Guernsey, there are cocktails and hot appetizers in the PB.

Fine thanks. I've had abou 2 years off babble

.

4:33 pm

well nm then and get in here and kick this grid

.and now I'm straight into the pb!

4:33 pm

and wecome back

Thanks, Crossy. I'

4:35 pm

Good afternoon, Everybody. How are you all doing today?

I'll add some goodies to the pb while I,m there ...Welsh cakes and lava bread anyone?

4:35 pm

Hi Nef

4:36 pm

... makes it worthwhile to simply type the words in the log

4:36 pm

hi Molly I'm trying very hard not to have bangorrhea these days, thanks for the reminder

4:37 pm

: D

4:37 pm

I don't know if I could handle seaweed bread.

4:37 pm

:-D

4:37 pm

sounds good, Guernseygirl. Where have you been lately that you haven't been Babbling?

Not sure I can either but I'm getting ready for a holiday in Wales.

4:38 pm

why would you want to handle seaweed bread?

I got worried about my addiction and dried out for a bit, but.now I've got an iPad and I seem to have drifted back.

4:39 pm

lava bread = seaweed bread, in the PB

4:39 pm

there is no addiction when 100% of everyone in here is the same..that makes it normal

4:40 pm

seaweed bread? lava bread??

4:40 pm

what are these concoctions of which you speak? LOL

4:41 pm

why worry about playing babble,do you stop eating,beat puppies,do you strip yerself neeked and climb on the water tower and toss tomatos at people while on babble? lol

Ki've never tried lava bread but welsh cakes are like scotch pancakes with sultanas.

4:42 pm

wow, headed to google for some definitions :-)

None of those things, crosshair, but worth thinking about.

4:42 pm

mmm welsh cakes....

4:43 pm

try the water tower one,it is quite fun till they haul you down

4:43 pm

ok, google says scotch pancakes are like American pancakes . . . and sultanas are raisins . . .

4:43 pm

so welsh cakes are pancakes with raisins in them?

Made on the griddle and eaten straight away with butter and a cup of tea - lovely.

4:44 pm

yum!!

4:44 pm

making crossy hungry

Making me hungry too.

4:44 pm

guernsey, your kitties are adorable!

The ginger one, called Violet is still with me, but Barnabas succumbed to kidney failure a couple of years ago.

4:46 pm

oh, so sorry -- love the name :-)

4:46 pm

we have a neighborhood tuxedo cat named Mao-Mao who's getting on in age . . . was left here when the Chinese couple next door moved away

Violet is the most destructive cat ever. I'm off to buy a new stair carpet tomorrow. She's clawed it through to the wood.

4:47 pm

he spends a lot of time staying cool under my car or nestled under my shrubs :-)

4:47 pm

yikes

A tuxedo cat. That would be a dinner- jacket cat here.

4:48 pm

seriously? LOL

4:48 pm

he's a sweet kitty -- and gets along well with the neighborhood dogs :-)

No. We just call them black and white.

4:48 pm

ooohhh LOL

4:49 pm

BRB

4:49 pm

any hints with the Pl8?

I think black and white cats are the best. Luckily Violet,s out in the garden so hasn't heard me say that. Lol

4:50 pm

pl8...what kids wear when they are outside having fun

Pl8 clothes children put on to frolic in.

4:51 pm

Oh dammit, off the PB for me

See you in a minute with a cocktail.

4:53 pm

here is something interesting,a u.s law commercial said the word "garnish in taking money from a pay cheque(we think of that as what you do with a salad you garnish it with bacon bits etc) we we use garnishee for pay deductions

I've got 40 left and It's bedtime here, so I'll say goodnight all.

4:56 pm

garnish food...to add something to it (bacon bits on salad)...garnish a pay check...add something to it (a deduction)

4:57 pm

Good night GG

4:58 pm

Wait am still struggling with Pl8 children's play clothes...

4:59 pm

Yes, mama...thank you. =) I think it was stress making things worse.

7:19 pm

yay leigh!!!

7:20 pm

I am glad you are feeling better -- do you like peanut butter cookies? Grant made me some last night (I was feeling deprived of sweets), and instead of 1 cup of white sugar and one of brown, he used two cups of white and 1 1/2 tablespoons of molasses. The BEST PB cookies ever -- in case you like PB cookies.

7:21 pm

ok, gonna go to bed soon - hagn all!

7:21 pm

sweet dreams kje!

7:21 pm

anyway... *share PB cookies with everyone, puts extra in the PB box*

Leigh, being a Devils fan, I would assume you are used to stress. As in, nail biter endings. : )

Mmmm...sounds wonderful.

And of whom are you a fan, Molly? ;)

For the first couple of weeks after you first signup you will see the tile stats and word stats below the grid. After that you will have to go pro to see those fields. They will show how many words you have left and how many start from each letter in the grid.
