North London.

2:29 am

How long since you left

2:30 am

8 years. Love to visit but wouldn't move back.

2:31 am

Its probably changed a lot even in that short time

2:32 am

I think so - we noticed changes when we were there a couple of years ago. The M25 was even more of a car park!

2:34 am

Every day you hear problems with the m25 it seems as if there are far more crimes too but whether thats just because we hear more about it now I don't know

2:36 am

I think it's the same everywhere.

2:36 am

Taking a break. Sleep well, Flosey and have a good day TQ

2:36 am

I think we hear more now because of Facebook etc

2:37 am

You too Liz

3:43 am

I am happy to share. So nice to know somebody else as crazy about reading as I. Can I remove the other series from the dropbox?

3:43 am

Yes - no problem.

3:44 am

i am still here... just 'cos i'm not chatting......

3:44 am

Glad to see you

3:44 am

lolol rose. Come on, chat with us. It will distract you from the pain. And we will enjoy it.

3:44 am

<------ here little squirrel, have some nuts... lolll

3:45 am

oh.... where did don go??

3:45 am

careful, rose, he might eat you. "Look, she is nuts, yummy!"

3:45 am

*giggles* leave that man's nuts alone, girl, you may have need of them sometime soon.

3:46 am

sprite, did you eventually read my posts from yesterday? about don's new appliance ??

3:47 am

no sweetie

3:48 am

as you know, he has to use any new appliance first which comes into our home... EXCEPT THE IRON.

3:48 am

lol

3:48 am

boys and their toys

3:49 am

he has bought a 12 speed drill press. and when i checked it out after he had assembled it, i sweetly asked if i could use it first.

3:49 am

the look i got was pure evil.... i collapsed laughing.

3:49 am

name that proper name (phantom): Jane Eyre's love.

3:49 am

I said she should insist on first use

3:49 am

roflollllllllllll what did he say?

3:49 am

very true, Liz :D

3:50 am

just the look was more than enough

3:50 am

hehehehe would have loved to see that look

3:51 am

brb. nature yodelling at me....

3:51 am

go girl, keep that chair dry

3:52 am

Rochester! Just saw the 3.49 post!

3:53 am

yayyyy Liz wins the long hot kiss from her lover!

3:53 am

:)

4:00 am

such a lovely book, Jane Eyre. I reread it once a year or so, just for the fun of it

4:01 am

Haven't read it for years.

4:01 am

I am probably weird that way. Some books are like old friends and I just have to revisit them now and then.

4:02 am

I also Reread many books. Many times.

4:02 am

:D

Morning all! I too re-read books often.

4:03 am

Hi Matty

4:04 am

4:04 am

how've you been, matty?

4:05 am

te nds

4:05 am

ouch. So sorry about that

4:06 am

Np

4:06 am

A 9 letter word would've been better ;)

4:07 am

re9/66 is one

4:08 am

So I guess at some point I need to list and find what it builds from.

4:09 am

Ha ha. Found it!

4:09 am

it ends in a spook

4:09 am

yay :)

4:10 am

100 left for later or tomorrow. Time for dinner. Hugs to all.

4:10 am

enjoy your dinner, Liz

4:10 am

matty, did you see my question?

4:10 am

Thanks.

4:16 am

I cannot seem to grey out that darn Q. Still 2 missing.

4:18 am

nm, found them. Never realised that was an option.

I'm ok! Nothing exciting or new here - just bits & pieces.

4:20 am

ah, there you are :) Okay is good! I hope the bits and pieces are coming together for you.

re9, please?

4:22 am

re + spook, apparition

4:23 am

and hi, Marc :) I hope you are well.

Well, more or less :) I'm happy for the Cubs and worried about the American election

I am very well thanks hope you are well also

4:24 am

I understand your worries. I think the whole world shares them.

4:25 am

I am fine, thanks Marc! Good to hear you are very well.

4:27 am

Sprite - ghost isn't there - further clue for re9 pls

4:28 am

hi Alleyn :) Think of the name of the criminal organisation in the Bond movies. Or: re7 something you have to earn, though youngsters nowadays want it to be given... the regard in which you hold someone. Then person who.

Sorry sprite I have not been able to get re9 from your clue Could you please clue it again?

4:30 am

Which re does it come from?

4:31 am

or: re + to look at something very closely, to in*****, + person who ending

4:31 am

it comes from the lefthand R. The re7 it builds from comes from the righthand R.

4:32 am

Thx - done

4:33 am

wtg Alleyn!

4:35 am

did you get it, Marc?

now i am confused dose it start with the 'r' in column 1 or the 'r' in column 5?

4:37 am

the re9 starts from the R in column 1. The re7 it builds from starts from the R in column 5.

4:37 am

dinner time... xoxox sprite. i hope you can re4 today.

4:38 am

re9: again prefix + glasses to look through *****acles + person who ending

4:39 am

RE 9 comes from the first column. Just extend the RE7/36

4:39 am

Hello, Sprite :-)

4:39 am

enjoy your dinner, darling

4:40 am

zooz! *hugs* hallo dear man, how are you doing, and how are the parents holding up?

4:42 am

4:42 am

Of course I wrote all that in the add word box lol it did not like that.

4:43 am

She is on antibiotics. Will not say on here as I do not have her permission to say. I know you will understand that :-)

4:44 am

of course, no worries, zooz. Will hold her in my thoughts and prayers, if that is okay.

4:44 am

She would like that I am sure :-) And thank you, Spritey!

4:45 am

How are you keeping? Have you got rid of that flu yet?

4:45 am

yes, the flu is behind me, only still tired but that will pass too. Thanks for asking :)

4:46 am

That is the problem with flu it takes ages to regain the strength back.

4:47 am

We had the first night of frost this morning brr.

4:48 am

I do not have it, Marc.

4:50 am

I hope she will have a good day with lots of love and being spoilt rotten, zooz

4:51 am

Just a little gathering of family members with balloons prty poppers and cake. Nothing too fancy sa she is like me or I am like her lol we do not like nothing too major!

4:52 am

4:52 am

We always try and spoil her, Sprite but like me not too keen on being over fussed with lol

4:53 am

lots of hugs would be good ;)

4:54 am

Yes we like that at Christmas too! a nice relaxed time with family have dinner watch TV and just chat about old times lol

4:55 am

They get tried very quickly so nothing to over taxing is the way to go.

4:55 am

same here. The kids love it. They can spend the holidays with the 'other' parents and then at some other day spend a lovely 'christmas' evening with us. We don't care about the date. Not about huge meals either.

4:55 am

Too*

4:55 am

no, it is a waste of their energy to overdo it.

struggling with the q's here

6:34 am

maddening

6:34 am

6:35 am

good morning. I just started

6:35 am

hi ruby

6:35 am

((bichon))

6:36 am

I'm eating and playing

6:36 am

good morning friends! An unexpected free period to start my day - a lovely thing

6:36 am

and Rufie is trying to sh***

6:36 am

((trif))

6:37 am

rufies is trying to what?

6:38 am

Hi Ruby. I am about in the middle.

6:38 am

silly story to share - I have a friend who teaches in Avon, a nearby town. They are too small to have a successful football program at their school, and so is the next town over, Holbrook, so they are thinking of combining their two teams to make one bigger team. Guess how long it took the students to figure out that if you combine the two town names, you can name the new town the "A-Hols?"

6:38 am

hi bichon and Jayk - the last two qu's are not followed by a vowel - qu + 3 consonants

6:39 am

hahaha -- 5 sconds!

6:40 am

seriously ruby...I have to admit, I laughed.

6:40 am

ty JBV

6:40 am

hellO emt etc.

6:40 am

hellO emt etc.

6:41 am

hello jbv

6:42 am

hi ruby, hi everybody

6:42 am

How could you not laugh?

6:42 am

ruby I've been watching Engrenages on netflix - love it! really gritty and dark but I love listening to the French

6:43 am

so superior to what passes for prime time tv here

6:43 am

that's funny Trif. Reminds me of when my SILbuilt a treehouseforhis boys andtheircousin,Connor, Dominic and Alistair...alistair came up with a brilliant name for it...Condomali....

6:43 am

I'll look for it. For the moment, my Netflix isn't working on the laptop

6:44 am

Hello Kalia

6:44 am

it was on french tv - canal plus

6:44 am

they were around 7ishatthe time

6:45 am

Hello Ruby

6:45 am

I'm sure it's on my satellit but i am too lazy about watching French-language TV;

6:46 am

I miss being a teacher (and working, in general)

6:46 am

did you ever see the film Entre les Murs - it's about a French teacher in a high school

6:46 am

you might like it

6:47 am

I have written that down!!!

6:47 am

I'll look for it but the name-changes can be very confusing, e.g. Trainwreck was listed as Crazy Amy

6:48 am

Trif, you might like it - I found it a little disturbing - many differences between French and US high schools come to light

6:48 am

the g is eluding me...count please?

6:48 am

in English it was "The Class"

6:48 am

but the kids are the same everywhere

6:48 am

ge 5 and 6

6:49 am

thanks jbv - on the hutn

6:49 am

hunt

6:49 am

At this point, I Watch a lot of dopey movies and series, too many real-world problems. I even like Parks and Recreation which always makes me laugh. They run it 4 at a time without commercials or a laugh track

6:50 am

ruby do you know about the website imdb - if you enter a film name you'll see the original in whatever language

6:50 am

I'm probably losing IQ points every week!

6:50 am

sometimes mindless tv is a needed break from reality

6:50 am

Yes, my son told me about imdb and it can be very helpful

6:51 am

Last night I saw The Last Man on Earth, 4 épisodes. Annoying actors, but sufficiently escpiest to suit my dour mood

6:51 am

so if you enter "entre les murs" I think "the class" will pop up http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1068646/?r\nef_=fn_al_tt_1

6:51 am

escapist*

6:52 am

nbt, tra la la

6:53 am

Abd another silly series started last week "This is Us" (or something. Not bad!

6:53 am

that's getting rave reviews here - haven't seen it

6:54 am

The awful one for me, and although not even Catholic, I was offended, by it, The Young Pope with Jude Law. Horrible!

6:54 am

Was that the right name?

6:54 am

Trif is a smarty pants!

6:54 am

This is Us is quite a hit over here, ruby - it's great!

6:55 am

I had no idea, but I loved it, especially the fat sister!

6:55 am

She's beautiful!

6:56 am

emti: pls drop me a not via e-mail

6:56 am

notte*

6:59 am

I'm happy with a snoring dog at my feet in front of the fire

7:00 am

I really like it. I needed something to get into, and it came along at just the right time

7:01 am

man oh man, why do free periods go by so fast?

7:01 am

That's how I felt, Trif, and it's very nice that they run multiple episodes

7:01 am

ruby, i don't have your email.

7:01 am

mine is bakingisparadise@gmail.com

7:03 am

thank you

7:03 am

this election race is giving me bad dreams

7:04 am

Oh, ruby, same!!! I think most americans have had stomach cramps for weeks now.....Im REALLY scared of how this might go

7:04 am

I am very much looking forward to the political ads ending

7:05 am

Me too. I almost dread next Wednesday.

7:06 am

It is making me sick; I even dreamabut Trump!!

7:06 am

seriously.

7:06 am

that would certainly make ME sick, ruby!

7:06 am

I'm with Trif here. Each morning I wake up sick. Mr. Bich will be in Death Valley on a Sierra Club service trip and he will be spared all of this.

7:07 am

My son is in New Zealand, but he probably was a Sanders holdout!

7:08 am

Im going to vote today after work. This early voting thing is a big help!

7:08 am

New Zealand, the place to get aways from all of this. When we were there there were no US papers

7:11 am

Whee!!! Good morning!

7:12 am

I just heard a strange noise in the kittchen and had to rescure a litttle bird who had blundered in

7:12 am

goodness!

7:12 am

So sweet and passive; I was able to pick him up easily

7:12 am

how did it get in ruby?

7:12 am

hello car...

7:13 am

I keep the kitchen door open for the dogs

7:13 am

Hi!

7:13 am

doesn't it get cold?

7:14 am

Sometimes birds just walk in and, in summer, when I keep the front door open, they fly in

7:14 am

Yes, but I stay by the fire in a blanket or two

7:14 am

I love being able to handle them, it is always thrilling

7:15 am

Sounds so funny. Birds in the house

7:16 am

Once it was a female hawk and she let me carry her out without a struggle and she weighed about <5 or 6 lbs.

7:16 am

Wow!

7:16 am

Heh...the incorrect measurement of the Kessel run is in the grid today!

7:16 am

And bats

7:17 am

HI CAR!!!! I only have a minute of this free period left, but it's lovely to see you!

7:17 am

Hello!

7:17 am

7:20 am

What is Kessel?

7:21 am

7:21 am

Its a planet that Han Solo claims to have flown in less than 12 pa6/24s...but that is not the correct measurement to use.

7:22 am

hahaha car. I'm too old to know that!

7:22 am

don't have the re 6 ruby

7:23 am

No, you're not! Its from the very first Star Wars movie that came out in 1977!

7:23 am

7:24 am

Somehow, I never saw that movie

7:24 am

7:24 am

I need the first re 7/32, the one after the money you pay your landlord

7:27 am

10:00 pm

10:01 pm

I know.. it was quite a game.. sigh

10:02 pm

Yes it was. long suffereing cubs fan here too

10:02 pm

and some people think baseball is boring . . . go figure

10:02 pm

not that game, no way!

10:02 pm

indeed!!

10:03 pm

I didn't care about the series at all this year --- until the last game (too much other stuff going on to pay attention to the games right now). I'm thrilled the Cubs got it!

10:05 pm

FW!!! back at the flip! :-)

10:05 pm

From that 1st home run I knew it was going to be quite a game. Like many cubs fans I was just happy they were playing game 7

10:06 pm

well, I've been a Tribe fan for egads, over 50 years.. but if we had to lose, I'm glad it was to the Cubbies

10:07 pm

Yay, Une.. congrats

10:08 pm

U did have the title in 1948. Both teams did play very well. I honestly never thought I would see a Cubs World Series in my lifetime.
