good heavens, Mitch - how can you type 49 words in 3 minutes!
this is getting ridiculous - hate these tiny grids
heh, wish there were more - been pretty sparse last couple days
Clues are up
somebody is using a program, I'm thinking ?
thank you, lickety !
Hi all and thanks, Lickety
would a pretty ridiculous thing to do, don't you think?
It's been done before.
well done, mitch!!! Fast as always, wtg!
thank you Lickety!
thx volley, nan - back to study
there's going to be 700 word grid one of these days....
see you soon, mitch!
I think you are probably right, harp.

ditto
WTG RURU!!
congrat ru!
well done ruru - stalled with 20 to go and ready to give up
WTG MITCHDICK!!!
Mictch had the quickest win I have ever seen here, well done Mitch
hi saanich
there was a player chuggaboom that could do grids in like 5 minutes.. bigger grids.. like 150 and 170
that guy was amazing..
Mitch is superfast too
when the big one hits.. I hope it is on a weekend :D
Sent you a couple of emails saanich
got them, what a weird coincidence!
I know.. she's a sweetheart too.. one of my favorite people
most
I think with several small grids.. we can expect a big one soon too
ty 6, please?
nm - got it
*!* ta da *!*
you're in the money nan :D
then help me with it nan-lol
YOU must have used a PROGRAM nan :D
yeah - its called fireworks forever -- needed it to find the really weird and the pt's that aren't real words
ruru gave a clue in his comment to me, sammy
good night everyone -- hopefully tomorrows grid will be a couple of hundred at least
good night nan
'night nan
I just need a giant grid and Dart to go on vacation soon
i don t like these small grids either
how are you doing Sammy.. are you better?
speaking for everyone here.. we were concerned about you
oh she's gone
hi ru. How are you tonight?
I'm fine nef.. you're up late huh?
Just trying to stay awake long enough for DH's spastic legs to settle down. I'm tired & sleepy.
ah..
I'm tired too actually
these 49 word grids just suck the life out of me :D
agreed. I'm not enjoying the little ones these days
they are either little buggers that no one solves or so easy that I finish too fast
did you finish in three minutes like mitch?
No; I just got here 10 minutes ago but am now nearly half way
BUT; I'm going to quit for the night; can't think any more so I'll try going to bed now
Niters ruru; happy Babbling!
ru - Is Mitch a paid member?
off to bed for me, goodnight everyone!
Night saanich
Yes hoot he is
.nite nef
Then why can't I find any stats on him?
Mitchdick
I think youre being gamed.
And I don't know how he can FIND a word fast enought to enter it
I dont know. He doesnt play that often
I think he used to be maniacmitch
It is possible
I was at 43 in 5..took me 8 minutes to find the others
I just went into the 500's and nothing....I don't really care but a lot of people will be upset and the grandstanding!
It doesnt bother me. I think he is just super bright
And I can accept it from you because you do it every day and know all the ins & outs. How can he do that when he isn't a regular?
Anyway, I'm dropping it. Just wondered.
g'night
Ok. He has always been fast
People like dart..dee....mitch...gremlinn...are way ahead of us plodders
hi all...I've got to get the last two before I go to bed...TY6 and FE6...anyone got a clue?
Fe 6 kind of fox
ty6, millionaire
thx granny, I should have seen that!
thx Jack, that's a new one for me.
Yw
np's joy
Now I can go to sleep zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
How are you Rose?
wth, another tiny baby grid! Good morning all :)
doing well thanx jack. and you?
{{hugs}} sprite. how was your night? how is Terra?
Hi sprite. Yes fine ty
hey Jack, long time no see, I hope you are well?
*hugs rose* The night was okayish. Terra is very sad this morning. Diarrhea and pain. Just gave him his painkiller and sat with him, then carried him up to my room in a blanket. He is lying at my feet, in his basket, in the blanket.
and you, are you recuperating from the double therapy day? And how did you and Don sleep?
Fine thanks, just busy. Trying to do this on my phone. Frustrating grid as well!
we both slept well thanx. poor Terra. such a shock!!
takes a lot of patience, doing this grid on a phone, I bet :)
am glad you slept well. And the poor body?
it's actually not to bad, surprisingly.
it is so touching to see terra needs me close by. When I move, he opens his eyes and checks if I am still where he wants me to be.
wow awesome, rose! You did very well :D
awww, bless him
i did take it very easy in the pool. worked in water up to my chin.
wise decision, rose. This way it could benefit you, in stead of making you miserable for days.
physio agrees that i should remain in the deeper water for a few more weeks. i start with 1/2 weights next week.
wow awesome. Good progress there.
and she is going to encourage don to get in the pool as well. he needs it for his lower back.
oh, smart thinking.
top two rows greyed out *smug*
yay you sprite
lol, yeah right. Tricky little bugger, this grid
k's are easy
yeah, got them right away. Didn't even nag about them today.
phoned my love... terra wasn't very chipper early this morning either, but was eager to eat. So that is a good thing.
sorry sweetie. good that Terra is eating.
Just thought I'd come back here for a few minutes and say hi and hugs :)
Sorry to read that Terra's not too well :(
don was working on my laptop. every time i open a new program, the sound turns itself on.
oh rose, all those squirrels, lol
hi {{hugs}} liz girl
hey Liz! A big *hug* for you and for your husband :) I hope you are both fine.
We're fine - as ever! Hope all's good with both of you and your families.
yeah poor terra was attacked by two terriers yesterday, Liz. So sad. Nothing broken and no open wounds, thank God. But hurting badly allover.
Excitement! It actually poured for about 15 minutes.
Ooooh! Poor Terra. Bad terriers!
love to hear you are doing well, Liz :) Yes, I and mine are fine. Sons is having some attitude problems atm, but nothing major. All the rest is good!
roflol @ excitement!
Boys and their attitudes - hope he hurries up and gets over himself!
We've had so little rain over the past 18 months - the ground is desperate for rain.
oh dear... then 15 mins isn't going to make much of a difference, I fear.
problem it will run straight off, liz. what you need is a couple of days of drizzle only, which can soak into the ground.
ain't that the truth. And of course, easy-going caya is the one seriously considering moving out when starting at the university. And troublemaker Tim wants to study from home...
it helps - it really did pour - thunder and lightning too! Never really get drizzle here! It either rains or it doesn't. Sometimes it pours for about 30 secs. it's very weird.
That doesn't surprise me - she's the mature one - ready to spread her wings!
*programs rain to drizzle*
No, preferably not! Except possibly at night! Funny how the sky was so blue this am - perfect beach walking weather!
* doing indian rain dance*
too true, Liz! She is all enthusiastic... there are a couple of universities here in the netherlands that offer American-style bachelors and masters. Even with dorms and mensas and all that.
Thanks Rose - hopefully there will be more rain this season!
Caya will do very well, I'm sure.
But I still only want it to rain at night! Call me selfish!
and i'm doing it in slow mo...hopefully you will get slow rain...lol
oh yes. She is highly intelligent and emotionally mature. She will find her way.
lol!
*prim face* I certainly hope you are wearing your tutu, rose!
Tim will grow up too - just takes longer for boys - but you know this anyway!
so typical...the younger female is more mature than the older male. * sigh *
still doesn't hurt to hear it again, Liz, lol. Sometimes we kinda despair!
No not her tutu! Full feathered headdress! Perhaps with the tutu!
of course i am sprite. it fits my left leg only, perfectly.
Attractive, I'm sure!
no perhaps about it. I don't give a shit what she is wearing otherwise. As long as the tutu is on!
yeah. That left leg. Man, I could kiss that leg. In the tutu, of course.
lol
ROFLOL...oh my, you two!!
Tutu, headdress and warpaint!
I'll ask if you kissed that left leg next year!
if I were a weather god, I'd hurry to bring her rain!
oh and a rose between my teeth. which colour do you think?
Pink of course.
From your garden.
jeezz Liz, you are no help. You will have to ask me while she is here, not after!
Matches the tutu!
pink works for me
That is next year, isn't it!
if ebola and other scares allow, yes
Writes on calendar!!!!
good :D
we will start planning in the new year.
You just have to grab opportunities - can't live life based on fears - obviously don't take stupid chances though.
I have a wedding in London in April - wish we could afford to be there again so soon.
as everything in life, you have to find the middle road. Don't hurry into danger... don't live out of fear.
ahhhh so close, Liz!
If we could, then I'd force Rose to match her timing to mine!
wouldn't that be awesome!
Dreams - when I reply to the invite, i'll suggest that perhaps a lottery win or a benefactor would be good. Don't have high hopes of either though!
Lightning flashes and a bit more rain!!! Thunder rumbling!
airplane tickets would do, Liz, lol
Sure would.
I knew it. That rose. She delivers every time, doesn't she.
But they won't happen without the win or benefactor.]
rose, be sure to stop dancing in time! We don't want Liz to rain away!
Yay Rose and her dancing :)
Take a lot of rain to rain me away!
ha!! i knew i could do it!! lol
Thanks Rose - rain's fading now.
Like I said - 30 second bursts of rain!
that was quite a bit of magic there, rose! All over the continent!
Rose magic is powerful magic.
raindrops keep falling on my head~~~~
our hail storms are like that. Intense hail stones for maybe a minute, and then it is done.
I'm singing in the rain.
I'm laughing at clouds... so high up above
I'm outta here now - only came by to say hallo to both of you. Hugs to you both! Hopefully a bigger grid tomorrow!
ipsy wipsy spider climbed the water spout~~~~
somewhere over the rainbow~~~
*hugs* dear Liz! Hugs your husband too from me :)
That's what hubby says - in UK it's eensy weensy spider!
It's raining men ... that'd be the day!
{{hugs}} liz girl. lovely to see you as always
we say klein klein kevertje
halleluya!
lol! Hugs and bye :)
PS. Hugs to Terra too
fireflies. The fox was my last word. And the odd Ye words took me a while too.
will do, Liz :)
WTG SPRITE!!!!
Same as my last word - but I really am going now!
Congrats!
lol, that Liz
hope Terra continues to improve, and that your day is okay. what is on the agenda today?
rose, I am off, more Terra time. *hugs* and lots of love. For you and for Don. Today is just Terra. I cancelled everything else.
{{hugs}} my darling. *gentle pats* for Terra, and lots of kisses for you.
neno
Soooo sorry.
Almost, Pat
hello? {{rosie, are you still here?}}
Hello Diane
I have not stopped running around for 3 days.
sitting down for 5 minutes
{{hugs}} ruby
{{you are the dearest and seetest, rosie}}
I SENT YOU A QUICK THANK YOU NOTE YESTERDAY, BUT HAVEN'T HAD A MINUTE TO WRITE YOU A PROPER LETTER.
awww ruby. did you like you gift?
tHE GOOD NEWS, THOUGH, IS THAT I JUST PICKED OUT THE WALLPAPER FOR THE "REFRESHMENT" OF THE HOUSE SO THAT BY THE TIME YOU ARRIVE, IT WILL BE SPIFFY AGAIN
i saw your email, dearest
ohhh. what does it look like?
only you would have thought of the lizard!!! I love it
I got as close as I could to the old ones; the new ones are a little bit brighter
It is a massive job and I have to start removing stuff from the walls on the weekend. The guy will start in the kitchen/breakfast room
I'm keeping the same palette as we will be leaving some of the old paint and wallpper
I have to take down kitchen curtains (they've never been cleaned and are filthy) and move all the fragile stuff to a safe place
nice darling. i am so looking forward to seeing it.
it's a big job. the time is fast approaching for me to pack all but the bare essentials in my kitchen and laundry.
I'm not having him touch the paper in the bedroom, guestroom or living room as those were all purchased in the US but the bedoom paint has to be re-done.
The idea of the amount of work is daunting but, on the other hand, it needs to be done and I'm not getting younger (unlike you! lol)
oh, yeah, right....lolol
I'll try to write later
{{rosie}}
i will look forward to it, sweetie.
nearly time for bed. bye all. nasty itty bitty grid with a couple of weird words. enjoy....lol
For the 'e' in far left column for one I have en4/5 what are the stats for the other 'e', please?
what's wit these tiny gribds?
nuts!
yes?
I need a clue for fe6, please?
I like the name gribd
Hi kids. Nutty, how are you?
hey scrabsy! as good as ever I was :-)
fine just looking for the fe6 which is my last word?
marc, change the last letter of the herb fe
fe6 is the name of a type of fox
good morning everyone
Hi Crossy
got it thanks and done, see all of you at the next gribd
ty for fox scrabby
Bye Marc
hows the new bun bun scrabbler?
So sweet and cuddly..and currently loose down here now. I let him out of the cage for the first time on Monday and he loves sprinting around.
lol, I considered getting bunnies, until I read about the difficulty of damage control. puppy is so much easier!
Tradeoffs--you must housetrain him, bring him outside, have vets bills.
oh yes, definitely! but when you're trying to make your house sellable, it seems the better choice. plus they bark at strangers.
Someday I will get a dog, maybe in 15 years if/when I retire.
with your hours I can see retiring being important so the doggy can have the needed attention.
with me working from home and my husband running all over the country for work, I like having my four legged alarm system
Yes. I would like a buddy to be on the trails with me, but I am not home enough right now.
one thing is for sure, leash training on the trail is a $^%&*
I have been hiking with my friend's 2 dogs. The Choc Lab is a maniac. The little ball of fur is not so bad.
we switched to the gentle lead, helped massively.
geez another tiny one- sigh. good morning all
Her dog has a harness around his chest, but he is big and strong.
Hi Wolvie
yeah scrabs, that's why the gentle lead, if they pull it starts to turn/trip them
Is that where the leash connects in front?
yep, doesn't hurt them at all.
I have yet to read Game of Thrones(it is on my short list) but I see that there seems to be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth over the length of time it is taking Mr. Martin to pump out the next book in the series. To this end i thought I would bestow some modicum of comfort to my babble buddies who are in the throes of palsy over the long wait. Keep in mind that Tolkien took a grand total of 17 years to pen Lord of the Rings into its final first release format. Even so more alterations would be added over the years in subsequent releases, and the tale would not be finished into the final copy we know and love today untill well over two decade had passed;)
I agree that patience is needed for well-written books.
I agree with one article author who told the fans to get over themselves and he can live as he pleases
10 left for later. Enjoy the day, kids.
bye scrabs
ta scrabsy
When you are God of your written universe you can live as you please:)
but for the record, I would have written a kinder universe
heck no! I am God of my novel, but I am not a merciful one:)
Stephen King once got a letter with a picture of a teddy bear tied up and gagged that said "Finish The Dark Tower Series or the bear dies" : D
nice
lol! I remember when he wrote about that
He also got a letter from a young teen dying of a terminal illness asking if he would share the outcome of the final book with her because she would not be around when it was finished.
But even i can anser that one. As a writer, you discover that your tale will often take on a life of its own after a while and sometimes you are as surprised as anyone else over what paths the storyline takes. in truth it is often that case that it is not known, even by the one who writes the story, what the final outcome will be.
same as an artist crossy, what you see when you start and when you finish are two different things. also what you think you made and what others see are two different things.
I have a book in the works. it is over 80% complete at this point and I have not the slightest idea how things will end up, and to be honest, I like the mystery:)
writing a book is a beast of a task, reading one is a pleasure. in the meantime I guess I have reports I'd better read. good day.
Reminds me of what a woodcarver told me "I find a piece of wood that speaks to me and I begin to carve. I do not set out to make a wolf or an eagle--I merely release from the wood what is already hidden within"

I don't enjoy these tiny gribds. I still don't finish and have nothing to chew on.
((ruby)) I know, two of these tiny things with sharp teeth in a row;(
There is now snow on the nearby mountaintops

Hello Molly
Hi Ruby
big fat snowflakes are falling outside my window:)
duck!
Yes, there is not so much an act of creation as of setting free what is already there:)
I have never wondered why people with money winter in Florida
last place I would go if I had money to run from winter
Good morning people
howdy,sukee
Hello sukee
We have rain, I think, can't tell right now
I think this grid is worse than yesterday.
both are evil, nasty ankle biters with sharp teeth
I think I got down to 4 yesterday, with this one I'm losing interest at 14 left
and a big ye 4/8
time to lie down
*woof*
28 left and I think I have to try the list
I fear something is amiss in Babbletown. Two tiny grids in a row. Now I'll actually have to do some work today
Hi bichon
Crossy hates tiny grids:(
So, here it is fog, no rain, no snow.
snow has stopped here and turned to rain, no accumulation to speak of
crossy is not the only one who hates tiny grids
just a whisker above the freezing mark now:(
It's 4 here, going up to 9, so not bad.
But, I'm in all day working so it does not matter.
Yup. At this late date we take what we can get.
List is being very helpful
Down to 5, going to make some breakfast.
Good Morning - what is up with these tiny grids. Fireworks to quickly
off I go to work
It's "Babble - The No Fun Version"
Like your Michaelangelo reference Molly. That was a great book.
What is with all these small grids?
t4 are ye5!
godthaab, was just about to type that exact question. On the plus side, they go so fast I can actually finish them.
fw
Oh no, not again!! 48? :P
*FACEPALM* Wow. One more word than yesterday.
we're getting there.
yesterdays grid was 24 and today we have 49?
Yesterday had 48.
godthab i am wondering the same thing ughh
right
oh sorry
but still another small grid? bummer
i am out poof
It is the curse of the weemees
:D
We do not curse. We just stand around being cute.
As long as people post weemees we are going to have wee grids
a vicious rumor!
Etwee brutus?
lol
good one!
Yawn. Fireworks.
Very good Judi.
And still unfulfilled.
you're awesome.
That happens sometimes. ;)
Here's hoping for a more bountiful grid tomorrow! See y'all! *POOF*
amen!!
hello
Hi Harp
hi all, stuck with 11 left
Me too Peri...stuck at 10 left
Good Morning. I'm stuck at 14 left.
Oh, now 8 left
I still can't get NBT; that lone E has me stumped (4th row, 3rd column)
ED 4 babblet
ED 4/6
thanks Zoozzoom. Sometimes the kind of stare right back at me.
lol I get that a lot.
Thanks, Zoom. Hi, everyone
Hello, Jaxx :-)
Hi jaxx. I'm so tired of staring at nonexistent words right now I feel like I'm cross-eyed. (in other words, time to chat a bit)
But I'm going to grab some coffee first. BRB
day of disaster today: the valve on the bedroom radiator blew off and a jet of hot water shot into the air and on to the carpet. Husband dried out the carpet turned off water and heating and here we stay. No water, no loo, no constant cups of tea.
Back. There isn't a shut off at the radiator jaxx?
Oh dear not ideal at all. Can you not call out a plumber although they are exspensive.It is getting chilly outside.
It's chilly here too, I'd hate to be without heat --- or water (& toilet)
No. he went to buy a replacement valve but can't fit it as whole thing is a mess. My brother-in-law is a plumber but I think he is still in Egypt on his holidays. Nigel has gone to his house to see if he is back yet.
It is not only chillier than it has been for some time but it is absolutely pouring down.
Well I hope you can get it fixed soon.Although you could have a nice duvet time on the sofa with your husband ;-)
No rain has reached here yet.But i know it is on the way.
I have gone the more sweater route, Zoom, although the duvet thing sounds nice. These days though I don't think the two od us could fit on the sofa! lol
of even
My house is crap at keeping the heat in.So when it gets really cold outside, I just go to bed early with a hot water bottle and read a book :-)
and here in northern mid-America we have bright sunny (& windy) skys and temps of 40 F, (5 C for you guys). I prefer the sun to rain
Good job it isn't last night as we had a bonfire party with loads of kids drinking pop and the loo in constant use.
Oh My1 That would have been miserable!
Ours is well insulated, thank goodness so the heat of cookoing and from freezer and fridge take the chill off. The parrot, though, is huddled in a corner of his cage looking woebegone.
cooking even. can't blame cold hands.
poor parrot, give him a blanket! ;-)
He's got feathers!
I prefer older house as they tend to be built better than these new crappy houses, like the one i have :-(
jaxx, I'm noticing my left hand isn't typing as well as it should these days; so I won't comment on other people's mistakes
This is a terrace too which helps. If all else fails I shall go and pester the neighbours until they let us in.
He would be a birdseye parrot if he lived in thi house, Jaxx..lol
zoozz, can you add insulation to the walls?
Yes I am going to try and get it done next spring/summer time.
My left hand is bandaged up after scalding myself. Hopefully the bandages will come off tomorrow as it has been three weeks since I scalded it.
I thought at the time as it being a new build, it should of come with insulation.
Is it still under guarantee? Can you complain to the house builder's federation?
I have heard American homes are built to a much higher standard to ours here.
Our house is stucco with plaster walls & I'm told that if we try to insulate the walls it would be noticeable whether we did the inside or the outside. So we piled on roof insulation to an R-60 and that helps
No past that time, Jaxx :-(
wow, zooz. That's horrid!
What a shame. If you are an older person perhaps you could get some help from the government?
I am sure I get the wall insulation free, I will be going for that.But I also have economy-7 heaters...total waste of time and money.By 9pm they are stone cold.Cost me £625 last year to use.
Do they not have a boost later on in the evening?
what is that, zoos? gas, electric or ???
hi
Electric, Nef.
hi sammysmom
Hi, sammysmom
Oh yay! Sam and Julia are no longer described as back yard pests. : D
They do, Jaxx.It does nothing special.
Electric heat is pretty expensive here in MN; but I think it's cheaper the farther south you go in the US. We have natural gas heat in our house
lol I did find that rather amusing at the time though, Molly :-)
: D
Have you tried the reflective panels behind them and closing the curtains before it gets dark. You can get insulated curtains.
hi Molly. How are you today?
Hi Nef, no complaints. And you?
Can get nothing behind them as they are not like radiators..Must admit I do not have lined curtains.That could help I am sure.
I had better nip out and buy some food befor the rain comes. Toodle pips for now.
doing good. A cousin of DH's is stopping by soon; and a friend has asked us out to her cabin for the weekend; so DH is semi-excited.
we have insulate linings on some of ours and they are pretty good.
Nice that you have a chance to get away Nef, you deserve it.
Bye, Zoom
bye zoozzoom
I'm looking forward to it too. Except one of her dogs was ill this AM; so we may have a car filled with dog gas tomorrow for the 3 hour trip.
Do you think we should use gas masks or Fabreze? ;-)
visitors here; BBL
Both. And keep the windows OPEN, no matter how cold it is.
LOL, Molly! I'm hoping whatever has upset the dog's gut will have settled down by then or we might have to have them open (and it's very chilly here & will be tomorrow too)
It took me forever to find my last word; I'vebeen working on it for nearly 30 minutes! Good Luck to the rest of you; Happy Babbling Everyone!
congrats, Nef
Hi Annie; how are you & your sone today?
(and thank you)
Hi Nef,...we are fine. Bobby had a birthday yesterday and we are taking him out for lunch on Saturday.
Oh, that sounds good! How old is he now; and does he get to pick where you're going? :-)
Nef, He is 49 and, yes, he picked where he wants to to..Applebee's, so Applebee's it is
LOL! At least that's a nice place for you to go without being too pricey!
Happy Belated Birthday to Bobby : )
Yes, it worked out well.
Thanks Molly, I will tell him.
(sorry, phone call) Please wish him a happy belated birthday for me too, Annie.
Thanks Nef, will do.
DH is trying to find something for lunch; I think I'll go & do the same. Take care, and Happy Babbling, Everyone!
<poof>
bye Nef
Oh, Annie, I'm sorry that I didn't remember Bobby's birthday. Bad nel..... I'll send him a belated greeting tomorrow
If I send one by e-mail, could you print it out for him?
Oh nuts, just looked at the time
Is it time for nuts? *Passes our pecans and almonds*
Silly, Molly, nuts are for kids.
It's so sad when there is a small grid and no chat. All the opportunities for off color jokes get missed.
who says nuts are for kids
yeah. boooo
gosh I love this new job. low stress and no overtime
oooooh. sounds nice.
whatcha doin'?
*F*I*R*E*W*O*R*D*S*

I finished last night and the baby is asleep right now, so does anyone know some other fun and similar word games that I can play online :) ??

not a comment but a typo.
Gran Mere, I almost fainted : O
Sorry Molly. Trying to get a word ending and somehow it got posted instead of put on the "not a word, you dummy" list.
It's okay Gran Mere. Somehow, I knew you were not prone to such outbursts. : D
Having a quiet day in the great Northwest. Torrential rains this morning and high winds in some of the areas but so far we have two new maple leaves down in the yard. Not too difficult to rake up.
Quiet days are good. Small grids are not so good for avid Babblers, but for 'dabblers' like me, occasional fireworks vindicate my attempts. I'm happy to report fireworks, :-)
good evening folks!
Hello Ph!
We just recently switched our cell phones to T-Mobile, and let's just say, wew are not pleased with their level of competence.
By the way, while we were in Hawaii, we got to see their famous goose.
I think the dam's due to burst and give us a 630 word grid
*63
Oh my! To have seen the Hawaiian Goose in person must surely give you some sort of Babble honour...? Like Glorious Goose, or Goose-Finder-supremo....
Soodle is a Babble Dabbler
How WAS Hawaii, geese aside, PH?
Oh ew Phan, What made you switch to T-Mobile?
How was Hawaii? Isn't that kind of like asking someone How was Heaven?
Well, my impression of Hawaii is Jack Lord saying 'Book 'em Dano'. Lots of waves, grass skirts , ukeleles, & surf boards. I'm conscious that I might just be stereotyping an entire community....
Hi, soodle. there are more Hawaian Geese at Slimbridge than there are in hawaii these days.
Oh, you really were thinking of Heaven then, being as Jack Lord has not been with us for quite some time.
Hi Babble friends, lots of small grids lately!
Hawaii was AMAZING! The highlight was swimming with Manta Rays and a Turtle.
Nice! Hawaii is on my bucket list. How wonderful for you!

Thank you. Thinking.
You have to be an old Babble player or into North American mammals to get that one Phan.
If you get the ye6, the fe6 is very similar ..
And yes, I'm old ..
FINISHED!! VERY EXCELLENT!
Yay godthaab!
I thought it was an African fox ..
It is, I meant to write North African
Silly me, thinking there would actually be a North American mammal in one of these zany grids
OMG!!!!!!! A TYPO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
If it's not hairy-nosed or Maylasian, Babble doesn't know it ..
Yes, a typo. Send me to the dungeon for scurrilous typists.
the fox was new to me, very educational!
