P's done and smelling wonderful!LOL

1:37 am

we have decided we MUST replace our front door. mother mac has shrunk so much she can't reach the lock with her key.

1:38 am

yay, m9, nice job

1:38 am

Oh my!

1:38 am

so that's nbt. still not 1/2 way or nbs

1:38 am

then we can go on with the front hall/entrance

1:40 am

Sounds like fun granny

1:41 am

*sigh* AND the bathroom still isn't finished. it's now too cold and wet to do what needs to be done.

1:42 am

how many years is it now?? i think it must be getting on for 3...

1:43 am

got a 9 and the 10! whoo hoo

1:43 am

oh, well done m9

1:43 am

We moved here over 4 years ago and still haven't painted the house like it needed THEN

1:43 am

and that's bingo, right column!LOL

1:45 am

we moved in here 22 years ago, had a friend do the entire downstairs interior with an airless sprayer, all in off-white - several rooms are still that same color, haha - high time for a change.

1:45 am

Oh.. you have oatmeal ceilings??LOL

1:46 am

22 years doesn't seem as long as it used to.... I was thinking of the oatmeal ceilings (textured) of my youth, and then realized 22 years ago is after I had children.

1:47 am

as a matter of fact, the (old) living room has the popcorn ceiling, I hate it! can't get the spiderwebs off it. It's getting replaced with tongue and groove wood.

1:47 am

Oh that will be nice!

1:48 am

finally 1/2 way!

1:48 am

we did that in the old bedroom, which is now the new living room, it looks great.

1:48 am

2:06 am

Hi there ruby.

2:06 am

hello peach; you are up early!

2:07 am

{{rosie}} ARE YOU STIL HERE?

2:07 am

sorry, caps, errant pinkie and touchy eyboard

2:08 am

Bearly, ruby.

2:11 am

hello ruby, in and out, doing jigsaws

2:13 am

I am waiting for DHL to pick up more documents -- going quckly crazy

2:13 am

ted

2:13 am

2:13 am

tending

2:13 am

oh, sorry. I'll be quiet now

2:14 am

i would like everyone's opinion on something. at the moment i am on a return-to-work program, under workcover. i have been told that if i become ill/sick in anyway due to my injury, while i am at work, i am allowed to go home, on sick leave, and not workcover.

2:14 am

but doesn't that ean you would lose the sick leave days that are coming to y ou anyway?

2:15 am

when I was a teacher, we had 5 days of sick leave a year and if you didn't take them, they didn't accrue

2:15 am

i mean if i am in so much pain/discomfort i have to go home and take pain meds too strong to work with, i have to use my sick leave hours

2:16 am

exactly, ruby. it doesn't sit right with me.

2:16 am

Somehow that doesn't seem fair. Who made these rules?

2:16 am

are you in a union? It sounds like something for a union rep to sort out

2:16 am

brb

2:17 am

peach, it has come from the DON and my manager. i am going to ask the return-to-work co-ordinator tomorrow.

2:18 am

ruby, work-cover and union are 2 different bodies. but if i have to do so, i will go to the union.

2:19 am

I wasn\t keen o the teachers' union, but I ould see how it could help you in this very unfair situation.

2:19 am

singe

2:20 am

I did it again. Bad nel!

2:25 am

phantom: ginseng

2:25 am

hello rbud

2:26 am

I could use some of that about now!

2:26 am

hi, ruby! (me, too!) :)

2:28 am

almost ruby, change the first vowel

2:29 am

naughty rose, stay here where you help ruby and others...*grin*

2:29 am

oops, and ty! never knew it was spelled that way

2:30 am

and plural

2:31 am

Hi all :)

2:31 am

hey liz

2:31 am

ty, rosie, weird spelling

2:31 am

{{liz}}

2:32 am

Is the fisc thing getting sorted?

2:32 am

I just keep sending volumes of paper, today to the tune of 132 euros! Waiting for DHL

2:33 am

Yow,,,,,,

2:33 am

atta girl, drown them in paperwork, they will never complain again...lol

2:33 am

this is costing a fortune and nothing is resolved

2:33 am

lol, Rose. Good theory.

2:34 am

it is making me sick

2:34 am

:(

2:35 am

awww, poor ruby. {{{gentle hugs}}} for a gentle friend

2:35 am

I have aged 10 years in two months! I look like a haggard old witch

2:35 am

From me too

2:36 am

Phew! Half way.

2:37 am

yay liz....and ruby, never!!!!

2:38 am

2:38 am

2:38 am

ruby, which tiles are you missing?

2:39 am

2:40 am

2:40 am

2:43 am

ty, nice clue, rose

2:43 am

*smiling at you, dear*

2:44 am

thank you so much == 92, nbt and nbs

2:44 am

what would I do without my friends????

2:44 am

yay, ruby. well done

2:44 am

same as me, drown or shoot myself....

2:45 am

exactly

2:45 am

Ty for the clues, Rose :)

2:45 am

so....we all keep each other afloat, held high, ......lots of hugs

2:46 am

np's liz.

2:46 am

and paddling as fast as we can!

2:46 am

not backwards though.....*giggle*

2:47 am

hey ruby like a duck, calm and serene above water, paddling like fury below?

2:47 am

it's funny, people here keep saying that swimming is the best exercise but what if you can't swim....I'd sink like a stone in this frezing lake

2:48 am

Your friends will throw you a rope

2:48 am

ruby, my DH is the same, no matter what the temp. is, he sinks like a stone, he simply cannot float.

2:48 am

one can hope.

2:49 am

The only place I could ever swim (and not well at all) was in teh warm ocean at Miami Beach

2:49 am

oh, my dearest one, no need to hope, know that it is true.

2:49 am

lol, one day i am going to take himself to the dead sea.

2:50 am

I guess it's a question of bone/fat ratio.... my father was the same but my mother could float wy on top of the water. Maybe she was closer to heaven.....

2:50 am

that's where I would like to go

2:50 am

It's an awesome experience

2:50 am

good, will pick you up on the way through...lolol

2:51 am

you were there, liz?

2:51 am

Want to go back with my hubby

2:51 am

liz, you have swum in the dead sea? what was it like?

2:51 am

Yes but a long time ago

2:51 am

I'm sure it's still as salty lol

2:52 am

Can't swim - you just float hands and fett sticking up in the air.

2:52 am

my guess is nothing has changed, liz

2:52 am

The waters kind of oily

2:52 am

I would love that

2:52 am

And it's warm!

2:53 am

hmmm....question....if the water is so salty, how long can you stay in it? i wouldn't want to be pickled...

2:54 am

it's reputedly wonderful for eczema and psoriasis

2:54 am

Lol!

2:54 am

I'm already pickled, anyway

2:54 am

The mud baths there are good too.

2:54 am

rofl, ditto, ruby

2:55 am

i didn't mean that pickled, i meant as in pickled pork or corned beef....

2:55 am

Bbs

2:55 am

later liz

2:55 am

it's funny that with all this current trouble, I am drinking very little. The idea of alcohol makes me feel sick

2:55 am

bye liz

3:01 am

3:06 am

see you tomorrow, ruby

3:06 am

peach, how you doing, hun? can i help you?

3:42 am

Yw

3:42 am

yay boat

3:42 am

{{{dianne}}} hello hun

3:43 am

thanks , what a weird word

3:45 am

okay, just checked the definition...si4 of the board where qu5 is situated...must be a chess term

3:46 am

Rose, how are things going?

3:54 am

dianne, having difficulties, in that managers will not recognise workcover claim...they say if i have trouble getting through a shift, i must use sick leave, not workcover...:(

3:56 am

Hello everyone

3:56 am

what exactly is "workcover"?

3:57 am

Hi Rose, that doesn't sound right - your case manager get involved surely?

3:57 am

hi lynxxx

3:58 am

Workcover - 'insurance' paid by a company to the government to cover workers who get injured on the job

3:58 am

hi Andree

3:58 am

its what we call workers compensation

3:59 am

Well if you were hurt/injued on the job then it seems reasonable that the workcover would apply.

3:59 am

i paid out many thousands over the years for my drivers and never got to claim a single cent

4:05 am

dianne, management are now saying if we are unable to get through a whole shift, we are to go home, using our sick leave, not work=cover payments.

4:06 am

hi Rose - that must be upsetting for you. (hugs) And your WC case manager says?

4:07 am

which from my perspective is totally wrong. i wouldn't be going off sick/sore if the injury had not happened in the first place.

4:07 am

liz, will hopefully talk to her tomorrow, when i am supposed to work my next shift.

4:08 am

Wel, let us know the outcome of your conversation. Good luck.

4:09 am

aww,thanx dianne. will definitely do so tomorrow night.

4:09 am

Keep your chin up and stand up for your rights. You def aren't a shirker

4:10 am

and thanx liz....

4:12 am

good morning, babble friends

4:12 am

i think it crazy that they expect you to work a full shift

4:12 am

hi sprite

4:13 am

hi Sprite

4:13 am

{{{{sprite}}}} xoxoxox

4:13 am

hi Andree :) Hiya rose *hugs*, what a nonse5 you have to battle with at work :(

4:14 am

andree, i'm supposed to work 10 hours, am only working 9 hours...lol

4:14 am

*sigh* yes i know....but i have God on my si4...;)

4:14 am

they are so full of it, rose. Get all the help you can get and make sure they don't bully you into doing more than you can, or in going home.

4:15 am

i think you should be home and not using up your sick leave either

4:16 am

not a lot management can do, considering my surgeon is the medical director of the facility. :)

4:16 am

yay for that

4:16 am

lol

4:17 am

is it all the management or just your new supervisor?

4:17 am

and btw, i was told on tuesday, i wasn't allowed to wear dangly earrings. only studs and hoops...lol...some of my studs are pretty flash..

4:17 am

hi lyn :) xxx

4:17 am

hi Sprite

4:18 am

liz, all management...but as i said i am going to check in with my return-to work officer. she is so good.

4:18 am

she better stand up for you. This sounds like bullying to me.

4:20 am

I think the new supervisor is trying to prove how 'capable' she is and the others are just too lazy to say anything

4:20 am

so...we are not allowed to wear our own hats, restricted on our earrings, and our shoes must not have any holes/gaps in them, like crocs, they must also have a heel and a strap to hold them in place...talk about 1984, georger orwell.

4:21 am

offer to show her your underwear, so she can decide whether that is up to her views?

4:21 am

Kevin is in! s**t!

4:21 am

can we see a trend here?

4:22 am

good grief, liz!!! really????

4:22 am

yeah, what lyn says... an overachiever.

4:23 am

wonder what she is going to say to one of our surgeons who does not wear knickers???

4:24 am

my bet? She won't, cause he/she is a surgeon.

4:24 am

Geez - Kevin or Tony - what a choice (not that personality has any bearing!)

4:24 am

yeah!!! and the surgeons rule because???

4:25 am

I am out of the loop... what's with the Kevin and the Tony thing?

4:25 am

i am wondering the same thing sprite

4:25 am

Government here Sprite...elections coming up and our current PM has just been voted out by her party

4:25 am

*giggle* lyn....sprite, 2 of our politicians...they are striving for prime ministership of our country...

4:26 am

often I wonder how it comes to be, that the future of our country will be decided by such little men...

4:27 am

okay, dinner ready...will bbl. {{hugs}} and {{kisses}} to all

4:27 am

enjoy, rose :)

4:28 am

Bye Rose. Taking a break myself - BBL

4:28 am

bye for now, lyn

4:29 am

o my god and i have missed the news

4:29 am

if it is anything like ours, it will be repeated at least 4 times next hour

4:30 am

i know but i will put the telly on

4:31 am

good idea

5:07 am

am loving this grid. Such great words :)

5:18 am

hi Sprite, late start here but so far so good

5:19 am

hiya dizgrannie :)

5:26 am

fireflies. That was one lovely grid :) Am off to hang up the laundry. Have a peaceful evening, dizgrannie (and Andree and rose and lyn), and a nice day tomorrow. *hugs*

5:32 am

Good day. Anyone around?

5:37 am

Me is here with 7 left

5:38 am

Wow, good for you. I need 108 and am seeing very little now.

5:46 am

F/Ws, had to go to Lickety's. Just remember to past tense and use gerund ending on a lot of words.

5:48 am

Too many repeat letters are confusing my brain--I's, E's, N's...

5:57 am

good morning everyone:)

5:57 am

Hi Crossy!

5:58 am

6:03 am

Yesterday I made my decision--time for a new car! I brought my car to the auto shop and, when I was told that the rear suspension needed to be dismantled and rebuilt, I knew it was time to ay goodbye to this car. :-(

6:03 am

tip start feture,auto hill decent assist,ac,sirus sat radio,cruise control,heated seats,freedom to..etc,etc

6:04 am

yes,you told me it is starting to become amoney pit

6:04 am

top

6:05 am

you were debating a jeep as well i remember.IF you lean that way,you better move fast.the stable of 2013,s is amost sold out and they will be taking orders for the 2014 year..at 8k more

6:05 am

168K miles, and I bought in 8 yrs 3 mo ago

6:06 am

must be nice when an entire model year sells out:)

6:06 am

I will get another SUbaru--probably another Forester.

6:06 am

my current car turned 9 years this may just past

6:07 am

I had hoped to pass 200K with my Subaru but our winters are brutal

6:07 am

Hi, crossy and Scrabbler! It's only 4 am here but am trying to get in a bit of grid play before starting work this morning...second day on new job.

6:08 am

Hi Mimi. Getting better at interpreting the fast-talking doc?

6:08 am

howdy,mimi:))

6:09 am

I haven't had her yet. But it's always difficult at the beginning learning a new system. By the end of yesterday I was getting the hang of it.

6:09 am

((crossy))

6:10 am

I am looking at the Subaru Legacys--compact/non-SUV--but then I would need a new kayak roof rack.

6:10 am

hehe,i will be able to toss my kayak right on top of the jeep:))

6:11 am

out the door price,with all the add ons,taxes,extended warranty and a set of winter snows on rims is 29k

6:11 am

The Legacys have naked roofs. Imperzas too, I think.

6:11 am

Wow!

6:11 am

for reference,my 2004 echo was 21 k out the door

6:11 am

*Impreza

6:13 am

I am hoping to spend less than 22K for a gently used SUbaru. I will shop Saturday and my local sister will come along to help. Usually my Dad did all of the research and went to all of the dealerships first, then told me my best options.

6:13 am

i bought my echo at a bad time however,just before the big 3 went belly up.it was not a buyers market

6:13 am

i want minty fresh this time.love that new car smell

6:14 am

I'll see what my options are.

6:14 am

so how used? a demo model or one 2 years old?

6:15 am

i have to return my demo by 9 am this morn cause even that was sold

6:15 am

Evening wonderful wordjunkies!

6:16 am

Hi, moon!

6:16 am

howdy moonwolf.07:15 am here and a nice day shaping up

6:17 am

Honestly... I cant see the clock, atm, but Im still up and it prolly counts for someone ^^

6:17 am

Hey, crossy, we're expecting 117 degrees Saturday and Sunday...may break the record for the dates....UGH!!

6:17 am

yup,it does moonwolf.for our west coasters,it is still 4 am;))

6:18 am

Youre in AZ, too, huh? lol

6:18 am

ouch mimi!!

6:18 am

78 and sun today for the great white north

6:18 am

And still no rain in sight....

6:19 am

Hi Moonwoof

6:19 am

mimi,you guys should all just bail out and let the place go to toal desert

6:19 am

Crossy, I would like a pre-owned vehicle with < 20-30K miles unless I can get a better deal on a new car.

6:19 am

total

6:19 am

117 degrees!

6:20 am

so,1-2 years old

6:20 am

We have 3-4 days of thunderstorms ahead.

6:20 am

Am just hanging on until early next year. Then hoping to move either into the mountains or to northern California where I can become a nuisance to ruru.

6:21 am

There is a 2012 Forester--RED!--with just under 8K miles, but manual transmission. How quickly can I learn to use that?

6:21 am

I was here the day it hit 122 degrees years ago...if you went outside it was actually difficult to breathe.

6:21 am

ruru needs a mother figure to keep an eye on him anyways

6:21 am

less that a month you will have it down pat scrabby

6:22 am

Yeah, go live near Ruru!

6:22 am

All these years of being in Phoenix I've constantly missed California.

6:22 am

most people I know who've learned a stick only took a week or two to get comfortable with it

6:22 am

Crossy, I want my new car on Saturday! My auto mechanic said that my rusted rear ball bearings are rather dangerous.

6:23 am

it is not a bad thing scrabby

6:23 am

aside from the heat, Im actually really enjoying phoenix

6:23 am

But I would need to drive home (90 minutes) from the dealership with manual transmission.

6:23 am

they can be indeed.ever have an entire rear end go out of a car while driving it??? it is not pretty...

6:24 am

good training for you scrabby

6:24 am

Moon, are you here visiting for a bit?

6:24 am

Nope! This is where Ive landed for a little while. Im still travelling a little bit for work a cpl of months a year, but we'll be in AJ for at least a cpl of yrs

6:26 am

Phoenix has a lot to offer in many ways. I've been here 30 years. What part of town are you living in? I'm at 7th St. and Bell Rd. in northern Phoenix.

6:26 am

Apache Junction

6:26 am

But close enuf to phoenix that I dont hate it and can get a phone signal lol

6:27 am

Have you gone on the Apache Trail yet?

6:27 am

Ive been working here a cpl of months a year for the last 18, or so, but we've moved here from MN for a bit

6:27 am

yup. and peralta and all thru the superstitions. I was a big hiker for a while

6:28 am

I was wondering if AJ stood for Apache Junction. I live in Phoenix as well, all my life.

6:28 am

hiya!

6:28 am

Hey :)

6:28 am

It's nice out there. My son and his family live in Mesa. When I first moved here I was located in Tempe. For 17 years lived next door to Cave Creek/Carefree.

6:29 am

Three Phoenicians here at once!

6:29 am

Ive traveled most of my life, for the most part. So this is an excellent change

6:29 am

lol nice! Ms Scrabbler!

6:29 am

Yep, Scrabbler...three of us at the same time...what are the odds against that?

6:30 am

A bit of trivia....there are more boats per capita and more golf courses in Arizona than anywhere else in the U.S.

6:31 am

Weird huh?

6:31 am

On my profile it says I'm from "tierra del calor" which means 'land of heat' in Spanish.

6:31 am

And we have more pools than anywhere in the US.

6:31 am

People are always surprised about the boats but they forget we have lots of lakes, especially heading north.

6:32 am

Boats in Phoenix? Aren't you in the desert?

6:32 am

True

6:32 am

Very much desert, yup

6:32 am

But with what mimi said, plus the snow birds, etc, the boats add up.

6:33 am

List of lakes in AZ: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_l\nakes_in_Arizona

6:33 am

Can you believe it's going up to 117 this weekend? I just wish we'd see some real monsoon activity soon. I so much miss thunderstorms. Can't even remember the last time we had rain.

6:33 am

I even know people who own boats here, but only use them in other states.

6:33 am

We had more rain in the first 2 wks of June than we usually get in an entire June.

6:33 am

the last time we had rain out here (tho thats a bit different than phoenix) was only a month or so ago

6:34 am

But it was early morning and brief. Definately not monsoony

6:34 am

I'm looking forward to the monsoons as well. Make for gorgeous skies.

6:35 am

You always get more rain there than I do here, moon. Early next year I'm planning to move either to northern CA or up into the mountains on the Mogollon Rim....will see how bad real estate prices are in CA....already know it's much higher there.

6:36 am

It is, yea. But still. If its where you want... That may well be worth it. The mountains there are gorgeous too

6:36 am

I finally passed halfway, just in time to get ready for work. Bye, kids. Enjoy the day.

6:36 am

Bye Scrabbler :)

6:36 am

hagd scrabbler!

6:36 am

Bye, Scrabbler!

6:37 am

the news broke last night at about 11:30pm

7:43 am

8:16 am

and there's no h in that last clue

well i do have one that appears to be the plural of the bible book

8:17 am

now that Ive looked there's no h in any of the g words

8:20 am

then you're missing the medieval civet and the alt spelling of a medicinal root

well... when I typoed the ge5/14 that was kinda the same in my head lol

8:21 am

8:22 am

Sorry Im not very good at cluing =\

8:22 am

Im dreadfully out of practice

8:23 am

maybe it would help to say it rhymes with the kitchen table set.

okie dokie! never thought of that!

9:35 am

I'm pleased that DOMA is unconstitutional and the CA Prop 8 case has been voided and remanded with insturtions that no standing. It's been a verklempt kind of morning.

9:35 am

ty, kje and moonwoof

9:35 am

I wouldn't have either without the clue!

9:35 am

I was pleased to hear that too, DC

9:36 am

yep, dc... not pleased with many of SCOTUS decsions this week, but glad to see DOMA overturned... wasn't sure it would happen!

9:36 am

I'm disappointed that it only applies to California!

9:36 am

agreed. About both DOMA and some of the other moronic choices, this week.

9:37 am

With the current court, that's rather the best i was hoping for at this time. Lack of DOMA will make the state laws much more easily challengable.

9:37 am

also cool what happened in Austin last night, though suspect that will not be the end of that bill

9:37 am

So *far* beth. It always has to start somewhere

9:37 am

Fully agreed, kje. I got little sleep due to following that last night.

9:37 am

Lots of tough women hanging in to the very end!

9:37 am

In Texas, I mean

9:43 am

9:43 am

oh, that's all of them LOL

9:44 am

9:46 am

take the second se4.4 and add gerund, moonwoof

9:58 am

in case anyone has not seen the news, both the US supreme court rulings on gay marriage were pretty definitive. DOMA is overturned, and the opponents of same-sex marriage do not have standing to appeal the overturn of the ban on prop 8 by the lower court.

9:58 am

tadone!! finito!! challenging grid for me today.

9:58 am

kennedy wrote the decision re: DOMA.

9:58 am

i'm back. had to go read about DOMA and Texas. NC has backed off on clean water requirements from Lake Joran, where my drinking water comes from. more stupidity.

9:58 am

so sorry to hear that mixi!

10:00 am

They are also setting rules for tracking which is still illegal. The coal companies own the southern bit of this county too.

10:00 am

ding dong, the DOMA witch is dead!

10:00 am

i have a friend in NC and from what i hear from him you guys have been having to deal with a lot of stupidity lately there. he's been arrested in the protests.

10:01 am

(i bask in the vicarious glory of having a friend arrested for protesting)

10:07 am

speaking of the wizard of oz, am i the only one who looks at the edward snowden thing and feels like dorothy watching toto leave the witch's castle, going, "he got away! he got away!" (ok yes, it may not be over yet)

10:07 am

sea levels can only rise so much with out the approval of the legislature. after that what can you expect???

10:08 am

*hugs mixi in sympathy*

10:08 am

So far, he's gotten away, Hurshy. I hope he makes it to Ecuador.

10:09 am

i heard he was also thinking about iceland. if i had to be exiled, i think i could go for iceland. my grandparents visited there and said good things.

10:09 am

def iceland over ecuador

10:09 am

4:57 pm

badge showing rank would have been better, ain't hindsight wonderful

4:58 pm

yes joso, but any clue is better than none :)

4:59 pm

it's different here as i've seen people write en6/7 as officers in the army here but in the uk, it is a flag on a naval ship

5:01 pm

so it does sometimes get confusing with the different meanings over the pond for you and us

5:03 pm

But don't you Brits and Canadians spell things the same way. (My husband used to say Canada was a beard of England)

5:04 pm

en6/7 is also what most ships flags are named too

5:05 pm

no, i think the Canadians spell more like the Americans.they say alot of your words. i think they are more like you than us

5:06 pm

I need 2nd se7/36 pls. what that one clued?

5:06 pm

molly, you both tend to have alot of food the same and other things but they are still their own country(i don't want to fall out with any Canadians) :)

5:07 pm

Oh I don't know about that L. Canadians use a lot of British spellings and phrases.

5:07 pm

peri, gerund ending on the se4/4

5:07 pm

nm

5:07 pm

ty lil

5:10 pm

when i've heard them speaking on holiday, they sound more like you and the phrases, but i must admit i haven't seen alot of their spellings.but saying that, alot of our ex-servicemen moved out with their families after the war, plus alot who had met canadian women during.my mam was on a ship to canada but it was one that got blown up, luckily enough, my nan took her off before it sailed and said if we're going to die, we'll die together

5:11 pm

As an east Canuck, I use the US dictionary on my computer.

5:11 pm

no need to thank me peri, you'd already found it...i must remember to count to 20 before clueing you..lol :)

5:12 pm

last te7/36 pls. I do not see it on morewords

5:12 pm

lilli that is an awesome story about your nan.

5:13 pm

Hi everyone just starting and glad to see you are aboard the good ship lollypop.

5:13 pm

5:13 pm

fw, bye for now

5:15 pm

hi cath, yes it is and luckily enough my nan did as the german's still bombed it even though it had wounded soldiers and children on it with a big red cross on the top.hundreds of children drowned because of it.my mam and nan then had to deal with alot of bonms dropping but my nan is 96 and my mam is 72 now:)

5:15 pm

Yay!Wtg peri!! bye and tc

5:16 pm

hi ((gmere))

5:17 pm

Hi lilliann. Quite a story of survival and carrying on in spite of mean people.

5:20 pm

well, it was a story like that all over Europe gmere.my nan and her family lived in south London and got bombed regularly so they were use to their Anderson shelter, but quite often they'd just shelter under the stairs.my mam never knew her dad until she was 4, and that was after the war

5:21 pm

Glad we are all here now.

5:22 pm

it was a very tough time for all the countries involved and families of all servicemen/woman,doctors,nurses etc, they gave us the lives we have today and i know that i am very grateful for what they all sacrificed for us, it's a shame that a lot of the young peopl today don't feel that

5:23 pm

There was a news woman on tv last evening who did not know what a "stove pipe hat" was.

5:24 pm

lol, only takes a tiny bit of imagination, wouldn't you think

5:24 pm

hi everyone, just in for last few words

5:25 pm

top hat gmere

5:25 pm

hi flosey

5:25 pm

Yes lilliann. But where was she during the studies of Abraham Lincoln?

5:26 pm

5:27 pm

hello hello again

5:27 pm

5:27 pm

5:27 pm

We all have gaps in knowledge but that is so much a shared culture/time piece.

5:28 pm

that was very interesting, lill

5:28 pm

well, i must admit i guessed at top hat, i wouldn't know'stove hat' as we don't learn about Abraham Lincoln here

5:29 pm

5:46 pm

thanks, got the e, still looking for the n

5:47 pm

what you fish with sue

5:47 pm

hair ****

5:48 pm

I have an ne4/4 ending with a double consonant that looks like it fits those definitions but it doesn't come from that n

5:48 pm

yes, it does, sue

5:48 pm

that is from the centre n

5:49 pm

the other one repeats itself,

5:49 pm

it's from the first column n, you want

5:49 pm

ah, got it, it's the ne6/21 past tense that comes from the center, thanks!

5:49 pm

you can get the word we all have from all n's so it is confusing

5:50 pm

the ne6 comes from theN below the central N

5:50 pm

so finally I have nbs and nbt, this grid has too many n's, e's, and t's in it

5:50 pm

it is a twisted grid.

5:51 pm

it certainly is annie. i was sailing through it to start but definitely slowing down for my last 20

5:52 pm

I bid you all a good night. Bye dear babblers

5:52 pm

night, annie!

5:52 pm

it does sue.you look at a grid and think 'yay, a decent grid that i can go through without too many problems and then they bite you in the as'!! :D

5:53 pm

6:02 pm

have ed 4-7 and 4-9, but they come from a different e

6:03 pm

6:03 pm

those Es are confusing - try en6.24 & 7.36 Nan

6:04 pm

6:31 pm

6:39 pm

6:42 pm

it's like a few weeks ago i bought a hanging basket full of strawberries with pi

6:43 pm

Growing medicinal herbs has gotten to be an "in" thing.

6:43 pm

oops, sorry, pink flowers. mine normally have white and they're not normally in a hanging basket, but all my neighbours have hanging baskets with flowers so i wanted to be different

6:44 pm

he 5 pls

7:16 pm

i was never good with fractions or maths actually, gladly the bairn is doing really well, she definitely doesn't take after me in that subject :)

7:17 pm

I'm glad I only taught primary maths - some things - like ratio - I wasn't that far ahead of the kids I taught!!!!

7:17 pm

that is a silly word, as in he5 what we have instead of walls

7:17 pm

Teaching maths actually helped me understand it much better.

7:18 pm

the shrub bushy thing

7:18 pm

Duh! Of course!

7:18 pm

i've never heard of it that way though

7:18 pm

But a silly word, as you said!

7:19 pm

Must've tried the e ending on that a number of times!

7:19 pm

And then there were the s's and the t's!!!! Another 13 of them!

7:20 pm

lol for the ratio, i never understood that either, in fact i didn't understand alot in maths. i could do it in my head and then one day i got all my answers wrong in primary and i got upset and never could do it after that. i could do it ion my head but not write all the workings out on paper

7:21 pm

let m eknow what you need as molly has desserted us!! :D

7:23 pm

definitely not.my daughter didn't do well in her sat at the end of primary but in all school work she's spot on, but saying that in the last 2 years since she went up to high school, she seems to be doing really well in the end of year tests and all year round school work

7:24 pm

That's great. Bet she's looking forward to the holidays though. Even though I know she likes school.

7:25 pm
