How are you, ((Rose))
very much goodly, thakee for asking. and you, my friend?
ugh... thankee....
All well this end thanks. Spring has sprung but they did not tell it to bring the warm weather with it lol
silly spring...is it very cold, dear?
It is not that bad to be honest but I do like it hot though :-)
i hear you. our weather is being perfectly autumnal. such a relief.
How is your husband doing? Still doing as he is told LOL
btw, did you here that i have won my case against workcover? they have offered to settle. after lots of to-and-froing, we are now in agreement.
Oh WOW that is excellent news, Rose!!!
for heaven's sake! don't be so silly! since when is he going to do as i tell him?
And may I say about bloody time too!
*grin* yeah... and surprise, surprise my blood pressure has dropped heaps to the concern of my GP and cardiologist.
I hope now you can have more peace of mind after ll the hassle and stress they put you under.
Well I am not surprised at that at all, Rose. I think anyone under those pressures would have very high blood pressure too!
absolutely zooz. i now have enough to retire on, with not a lot of support from the government. also, europe and the UK are looking really good.
Well I know you will but please plann your money wisely, Rose. As we all know it is very hard to get money but very easy to spend lol
Plan plan and more planning is the key.
Sorry did not mean to tell you what to do. Just care that is all :-)
honey, all good. my DH is well versed in what to do. and yes planning is the key.
We have a new rule in the UK now that when you retire you can now take all your pension out in one lump sum if you want. Hate to think what will happen to those who do and blow the lot on a boat or something they do not need!
lolll... i have so many plates in the air.... i hope i don't drop any!
Ha i can just see you know with those plates on a pole and you trying to keep them all spinning lol
Now not know.
well i can also now access my superannuation to add to the [pot. and son number three wants to buy the family home.
What your home or their own home?
so all in all i have a lot of things to think on. bank finance advisor is very good, and our solicitor is also very good.
it was our home, his and mine, before i re-married.
Well these are nice things to have to think about and I am sure you will make the right choices that is best for all of you concerned, Rose :-)
thanx for your confidence in me, zooz. i am taking it all VERY slowly, looking for any snags etc as i go.
That is the best policy, Rose, take it nice and easy.
How is the pain management going, rose? Still having the infusions?
fo6, please?
we had a very pleasant surprise when our car registration ca4 up for renewal. with the pension the cost is halved.
FO + consonant + opp of good.
marc, fo + consonant + not good, rotten
thanks
roflol... snap zooz
Oh that is good, Rose, The good news just keeps on coming!!

LOL
I am doing a Sprite lol
thank you thank you finally got it
not sure if that is good or not...do you speak dutch?
Niet veel.
*giggle* better than me. xoxox
That was with the help of google translator :-)
I will need to go soon, Rose, But It was very nice to catch up with you. And to hear the good news you have recently had!
geez i miss her. i hope Caya settles down ASAP. not that i would deny Caya her mum's support.
okay zooz. are you nearly done?
For the 't' in the top right corner I have tr4/4, tr5/12, and tr4/7 what are the stats of the missing 't', please?
tr4/5
Okay I am not sure what is going on there, Rose. I did ask Ruby yesterday and she said she was fine as I was a little worried that i had not seen her on here for a while.
THANKS
Caya is having trouble settling into her new school year. sprite is running around trying to smooth Caya's path. bless her
Ah I see. Then I do hope all can be sorted out for Caya. nothing worse than not getting the school support you need when you are having trouble.
exactly. poor kid. she is now a little fish in a big pond plus she wants to move out of the family home.
Ah yes that can be very hard on the parent to let go of their young adults. It is very hard to let go I know that for sure.
I need to get going then, Rose. Great to have caught up with you. Hope you gat a nice deep sleep tonight now that the weather has cooled for you. Bye for now!
have a great day, zooz. xoxox

good MORNING
Hi Ruby
good morning to you Ruby
((sukee))
Hello Marc
What idiot in their right mind blasts music at 5:45 AM? I know, my upstairs neighbor...
Ivesy, are you still here -- hello to you
anyone know the stats for that other 'r', please?
That's crazy Sukee! Perhaaps he is still partying from last night...
I haven't even started yet
No, it just started about 5 minutes after I got up. I pity the people who live closer.
hi ruby, sukee and all...
Hi ivesy
It's re5/12. Take the last letter off the 6
thanks
I guess the music could be worse, it is music I may like to listen to but it's a bit ridiculous.
>Maybe he starts his day by dancing around his living room to get the blood moving....
Starving a bit this morning, I have to go for an ultrasound that was cancelled last week. It's at 10 and I can't eat anything before
or it's his/her alarm clock that goes on for 20 minutes or so :)
It seems to have stopped, for now...
How about chewing food and spitting it out?
lol
I'll survive, there is a Tim Horton at the hospital so I will load up on food after :)
Too bad you don't have the gristly meat I was served all weekend; you could have chewed it for an hour with no discernable break-down lol
Doing great so far, 4 and 5 letter words :)
cr 5/18 clue please
rhymes with not hard
cr + not seldom
hello lynxx
hi Ruby!
cr 5/18 clue please
Ruby just gave it
how are you? Is your weather good at last?
and me, and me!
sukee doesn't miss a tricik!!! lol
oops, yes, and you :)
Lovely weather, OK during the day and quite cool at night
and you,snap
and Spring has sprung for you yet?
I am waiting for spring to really arrive. There are flowery glimmers, but it's freezing at night, too early to plant stuff
Our weather was lots of rain yesterday and about 10C. Today is supposed to be sunny but right now it is -1.
Our planting season doesn't start until almost the end of May :)
Today is just grey....flowers, dogs and I all need sunshine!
cr 5/18 clue please
That's like where I lived in upstate NY. I tend to plant too early (or have planted, no longer can do it myself°. One year in Binghamton, I planted tomatoes in my tiny garden and then it snowed in May
Gran cr & opposite of hard = s***
How did I not see that!
clued a couple of times around 5:12
I put tomatoes in and planted some Morning Glories yesterday. I love the planting season.
I think it's warmer there; we still risk frost at night
I oinly feed the fish every couple of days
and the heron comes for his lunch, Chez Ruvy, evry day. I don't mind because he's magnifique!
and there are plenty of fish in the pond; we started with 23 tinies and now there are 100's, some of them a foot long
waiting for lunch; the regular lady is on Holiday, so the sub must be struggling
Ruby, maybe if you hired someone to cook for you, you would get better meals.
23 left, taking a (hopefully) lunch break
I pay the commune and this way there's no shopping or clean-up or planning involved. And, occasionally, it's very good
I have someone to shop, someone else to clean and walk the dogs, someone to cook dogs' dinner -- that's all the "someones" I can stand
I'm Lucky to have so much help, but it's tiring having people in and out all day
(I must sound like a spoiled brat, sorry)
There once was a spoiled brat named Nellie, Preoccupied with her small belly, She wanted good good, But was in a bad mood, And for her lunch spooned out jelly

Byz clued
i am loking for urp. or, errrp. :/
already tried the flightless bird.
Haha, two "sick" siblings just arrived and are so boisterous. They are clearly not really sick. An example of worried mothers with not-so-sick kids. These kids are here with colds for a week.
it can be hard, sometimes to know when to doctor and when not. some are better at this than others.
but boisterous behavior is a big clue
These kids won't even cooperate to get weighed in.
hahah how old? boys?
I hate that.
Boy and girl, 4 and 2. Most sick visits to pediatricians are what we call "peace of mind" visits. These keep us in business.
sounds like boys
BBS
wow, four and two. that mother has her hands full
Been there, done that.
bless you.
my sil had hers 16 months apart. but she never seemed overwhelmed.
The oldest is in kindergarten, the mother is working on an MBA, and she dumped the father last year. I like the Dad and he brought the kids in. Mother has always been a bi***.
BBS
me too. Later
four in kindergarten? wow.
see you all later
It is so windy today
rut

Compound word.

I have 1 left and I'm stumped. CU7? please.
dog + beginning of indian spice + not dad
Or CU + rude word for semen +vowel.
Hope that was not too rude a clue.
*aghast*
CU + consonant + rude word for semen + vowel.
Sorry will never clue like that again.
ty
*says seven hail maries*
I'm afraid I appreciate the awkwardness of the clues but I don't get what it is.
Best leave it at that then, Gramma.
*checks zooz's video collection*
turmeric and ginger family of plants
there used to be a "video" store near my office that had a sign in the window reading "adult action movies" our favorite pastime was choosing names for suck movies...

Very true!

Damn PB for me :-(
Oh good grief, Harry lol
:) bye!
Hey, Ru! Your name is in the grid. This is making me cross-eyed, I didn't get enough sleep...
lol Harry!
Sounds like, Kamanjah will need a nap later to make up for lost sleep.
phantom: cobra
I got it with MoreWords thanks for trying to help me.
I shall. I'm a night owl who woke up with busy brain after about 4 1/2 hrs sleep.
See you all tomorrow.
Bye, Gramma, take care.
thanks Kama I missed that.. it's my grid and erda's
urgh way too little sleep. hope you can sleep deeply tonight.
Not seen Erda here for ages.
I think she stopped playing
last I heard.. she was in so-so health
I hope she's ok
Yes I hope so too.
you have created a new cluing category now zooz
Have i ?
yes.. porno cluing
Oh lol yes I am sorry about that. Could not think of another way to clue it.
well...well..
you probably made gramma's day :D
I am pleased to say she did not understand a word I was talking about...Thank goodness :-)
I got it from that clue tho. Guess I shouldn't admit that...lol
cu 4/8, pls
Edge of a pavement, Bichon.
ty zooz
Welcome.
Glad it helped you then, Kamanjah :-)
And never admit anything in front of, Ruru. You will never live it down!
oh please.. this is just the beginning zooz :D
I kept trying the ingredient in turmeric, but didn't have the right letters to finish the word...
yes.. I think zooz was thinking about spicy stuff too
lol
See what I mean.
I think I will have to stealth babble in future LOL
Good morning, all!
Okay time for me to head on out again. thanks for the laughs!
Hello & bye, Judi :-)
Hi Judy, by zooz - at least I got some laughs from getting up too early!
*bye
Who the hell made up this grid? Arrrgh!
Small and evil.
Emphasis on evil.
2 left for me.
Done. That was not fun.
Good on ya, Scrabbs. I still have 26 left. But, it's time for lunch. Off I go! *POOF*
is Licketys cheating?
Many player have their own interpretation of what constitutes 'cheating. " Some feel that even the type of cluing done in the chat is excessive, while others welcome the help. Lickety's is a tool like any other. Each person will play the game differently. Use what works for you.
Good answer! Even 83 words is TOUGH to ace.
Nicely put, crossy!
:)
Suze!!
Not all of us aim to finish the grid every day, either; I often go for nbs, nbt, and at least half the words; then I declare victory and go do something else :-)
Been a while since I have even finished one. :)
hi, crossy!
Nice to see you :)
Good to be here! I've been in the background off and on but haven't chatted for quite a while.
fo 6/36, pls

hi mo pie, tough little grid today
I may actually finish it though.. maybe
hi all. i need clues for the 7s. ty.
i dont understand the clue for cu 7. not at all. dont know dog types. any help?
fireworks!
it's not a breed of dog, it's a general term
yeah mo!
fa7/48 - sounds like something you do to a bone, minus the 1st R
eat a bone??????huh?
ty got the fa. great clue but all i could think of was a dog eating a bone due to other clue for cu7 that was a shaggy dog. do you know that one? i need a different clue for that one.
cu* is a slangy term for a mangy dog + slangy term for man's semen + 1st vowel
start with left-most C and go west
when you get it, you'll see why it's kinda hard to clue lol
'i guess "man
I guess "man's semen" is kinda redundant lol
ou7/48 is a compound, not in + the thing on the front of your head
It's a clue bonanza
outre
dame
came
whoops!
hello....
been there, done that, ann.....
ty for ou 7

*Everyone quietly celebrates Pen's "done"
ty, molly...
i cant get the cu 7. darn. starts iwth dog and that is where i am stumped. mut? or rut? or what is that dog? and also left most C is top row C. is that the one to start with? there is no U near it. i am so confused.
i got the cu 7. Start with the right side c, and move to the left. ty.
curcama...most of the clues led to that
i dont have any 6s! i cant belioeve it.
change second vowel.
um....i am done....
Or curcuma...how do you spell such a weird word
yeah pen! molly to the pb with you.

sperm clues now?
anyone have any clues for 6s? i have none. ty
anyone have any clues for 6s? i have none. ty
I just got my first 6. It is one of the two southern r's, re6/21
I got it from "religious" earlier
um
uh oh...
baptist? isnt that was southerners are?
further clues weclome douglas
revival not in grid. reborn not in grid. hmmm
For better or for worse, I'm trying to get 1 letter from each tile, followed by 2 letters from each tile, and so on. It's highly inefficient, but I am entertained.
douglas any clues for the re 6? please? ty
merce
oops sorry
re5/12 is a prefix of re6/21
ok so clue the re 5 12 please. does it have to do with religion?
RE 6 / 21 - person of the church
add consonant to RE 5 before it
ty got it now. ty.
got the re 5 and 6. ty ty.
I portrayed a re6/21 when I portrayed the Rev. Dr. Daly in Gilbert and Sullivan's The Sorcerer
A re6/21 is someone who keeps you on the re5/12 side of things.
Woo Hoo! Off for two-and-a-half weeks :D
cold use some help with the ou7 please
ou7 - not in + front of skull
sorry, not getting the ou7 clue
ah, just saw it - thx!
yw
wow
that last one took forever to finally monkey
but FW at last
can clue briefly if needed
ok, I'm off - happy babbling
I didn't make it to nbt-2, because a word I thought was a word for the eastern c was a word for the southwest c
I'm not going to reach nbt-3, because I've reached the halfway point and declared moral victory. Happy Babbling all! *poof*
