Hello y'all.
hi Peach
How are you, lynxxx?
nbt/nbs
very well ..but looking forward to some Spring warmth
you might have to wait lynx.. we haven't given up on summer here yet :D
Our weather has been very weird.
i do know shit from shinola, bit lickity says no
Is that a Brand name?
it's an ooooooooooooold american expression. popular in the 50's
shinola was also a brand of shoe polish... probably still around today
yup- just googled it
BBL - going to see if I can transform a total failure in cooking
good luck Lyn - maybe you'll have discovered something new
Dear flosey, I have lost my grandaughter.....she passed away last Friday. After fighting this thing for ten years.
ah Peach, so very sorry to hear your sad news, God be with you through this dreadful loss
I feel badly telling you because of your daughter....I am still praying for her. Angela had something sarcoma...they told her it was a very rare kind of cancer.I do hope your daughter fully recovers. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner....I didn't want you to worry more about your daughter.
I am so sorry for this tremendous loss, peach. Your granddaughter was much loved.
Thank so much, Bugs.

good morning all
good morning Sprite
*hugs flosey* How are you today, dear lady?
fine thanks Sprite, have had a busy but good day, and you my dear Sprite
that is good to hear. I hope you have time to rest up. I am fine, thanks :)
good morning my darling {{sprite}} and good eve to {{flosey}} hugs and kisses in abundance to you both.
*hugs rose* Hello my dearest friend. Good evening to you and Don. How have you been, the last few days?
as you know flat out, but have taken it fairly quietly today.
and do you feel that you get better while resting? Or does it feel like a bottomless pit?
and apart from carving hunks out of myself, the rest is okay... lolll
oh dear... what've you been up to now? Playing with knives again?
no, am feeling better for resting. and i have started doing extra walks every other day, around the block, just strolling but not stopping or needing to stop.
awesome, rose. All good then. You are going strong, love. Am so glad!
funny you should mention knives. the set in the church kitchen are extremely sharp and i wasn't watching while i wiped a blade clean between cutting the sausage rolls to size.
Hi there Rose, and hugs dear friend - trust they are only taking what you no longer have use for! and good for you with the walking - keep it easy
r
roflollll @ flosey. Good one! That'll teach her to play with knives. Wiping blades clean, rose, my dear... only with the sharp edge away from you... and with care...
hi there Nanette
and the other night i brushed past don's set of tall drawers, and removed a few layers from my forearm. of course, being on aspirin, the areas wouldn't stop bleeding.
ouch, no indeed. And wow, Don must be really hard, if brushing past his pair of drawers hurts that much!
lol Sprite - must be the sharp crease Rose presses into them!!
indeed. That's what you get for ironing. I never do.
don has ordered rubber edges for all the sharp corners around the house. there was blood every where because i didn't notice straight away did i ?? oh no !! just bled all over the place.
presses, as irons
haha you two.
oh rose... LOLLLLL... okay... I will agree... a rubber might help for preventing pregnancy. But for preventing severe bleeding?
ah Rose, do take better care of yourself
^^ what flosey says
oh dear heaven.... sprite !!
yes dear? *blinks innocently*
*throws squishy tomato at sprite* you know what....lolll
I have no idea. Will be cooking curry today, but no tomatoes needed, hun. *throws back*
and the last time you were innocent was prolly three seconds after you were born... naughty girl...i am gonna have to come over there and beat you severely with a wet tissue.
ohhhh please do! *pant, pant*
roflollll.... flosey, please cover your innocent ears.
lol Rose, INNOCENT???
*grins*
cooking curry this morning, then off to the Lion King musical this afternoon. Once home, just cooking rice and heating the curry. Easy does it.
you two are so naughty.... *wonders if maisie has a stitch in her side from laughing*
hehehe give flosey her due, rose. She is naughty in her own way!
sounds like a lovely day Sprite, enjoy - would love to join you for supper
would love to have you, flosey
I promised to translate a recipe for you, didn't I? Was it the curry?
wouldn't it be fun
it would. Who knows, some day!
yes, I do believe it was Sprite
okay, will do!
tyty
also something for the slowcooker... darn, can't remember. But it will come to me when I check the printed recipes.
ah yes, I believe that was it Sprite, the slowcooker one
I'll translate both. Not today though :) But soon.
which earns me a trip to the PB
*places bottle of sangria and red wine in PB *
thanks Sprite - in your own good time
ohhhh sangria!
when you and Don return, rose, I'll make another batch of sangria spiker.
it will be my pleasure, flosey :) If you drop me a small email (addy in profile), I'll send the translations to you.
will do, and thanks
oh my I found an 8 all by myself :)
yayayayayay !!! well done sprite. which one?
the aq8
ah, and another one. The italian sounding one
same as me... loll... g'day sister
sister of my soul sharing a brainwave with me :)
again the same order as me
one to go
two italian sounding 8 letter words
oh, okay. Mine was in8
the other is a pasta
ah! That should help, let me see. Not that many tiles left.
got it, thanks darling
well done you honey
and fireflies. Not a bad grid. I am off to make the curry. *hugs rose and flosey* Have a lovely evening, a peaceful night and a blessed day.
WTG SPRITE!! have a lovely day, enjoy The Lion King. xoxox
79 to go but must get to bed, good night all and Have a wonderful day Sprite
Good morning. First ruin-through -- 111, nbt and nbs.
But l think the well has run dry
Hello, Ruby, Just started here so only have 54 words.
Hello Zzozz. I think summer is over, alas!
Yes I think so too. At least it is still mild at the moment!
It may have been record-breaking heat, but l didn't mind
Hoping for an Indian Summer here!
I'm close to making a fire but, for the moment, 2 sweaters and a blanket do the trick
Bless you, Ruby, You keep yourself warm. If you need a fire going get one started. If it gets too warm you can always put it out.
No, l'm too lazy and no help today to carry in wood
This isn't too bad
There's enough for a short fire, but, hopefully, the afternoon will be warmer.....
That should be good then.
And besides the "meals on wheels yucky lunch", l've found a food truck that will deliver kebabs later. How great is that!?!
nohs
Wow! You are on a winner there, Ruby!
sorry
Should only be sorry if it is a real word, Ruby :-)
I had the kebabs last weekend and although they were too spicy, ther addition of some yoghurt helped
Meat on a stick, delivered to your door. It doesn't get much better than that. : D
LOL
That's what l thought, but these are Turkish and they're full of salad and sauce, all enfolded in a huge pita. Sloppy, but tasty
I was expected dry meat on a stick, like in New York....
expecting*
They do take-away meals delivery around here too and some people have meals delivered at 1am!
This is rare for here, and only avail able, briefly, on the weekend.
I remember when I was a little bot we used to get a fish & chips van go around our area and you could go out to the van and buy fish & chips right outside your home. It was great!
lt's almost time for red boxes, so l'll see you later
Boy*
Take care, Ruby. Nice to see you.
I'd love that or eeven pizza, but héla, not possible
hélas*
Here.
lol
Ah Alas just googled it :-)
Of which 'google' is in the grid today :-)
Okay down to 74 words. Back later. Happy babbling everyone!
Back
Bizarro lunch arrived and was shared with "monkey-boy" who walked the pups and fed the fish
I think someone could make a lot of money with the rolling fish & chips/grill type van. So many people don't cook anymore.
I think you're right, but noty here. The village is too sparsely populated and the people are too cheap!
The food truck comes on weekends in the post office parking lot; it's on the only through road and caters to tourists
The village is so small that when they tried to have an outdoor market on weekends, it couldn't survive
good morning all
Good morning to you!

hi ru
hello rubes how is the dog doing?
He's off and on licking, but otheerwise OK. I'm re-starting him on dermipred this evening, waiting for it to be delivered
Thank you for asking
oh.. good he needs steroids
I don't think people who don't have dogs understand
that should break the habit
They seem to work
he will need more water though
sounds like it is allergy related.. did you look for foxtails?
There are always 3 bowls, butl'll tell him
Looked but didn't find any
He's always had skin problems intermittently
he'll probably drink a lot more water.. good.. you can put your finger in between the pads and the toes and feel for them.. they are pointy
what? "google" isn't a word? I thought it was a quasi-math term eons ago.
I have to check Dylan every day
l'll try that
la 5/14, pls
Cheddar Omelet and chicken apple sausage anyone?

it is part of my vocabulary trif...I just wanted to give you a firm clue
I'm just dicking around....
Trif..if you're going to go head to head with ruru you're up against stiff competition!
yeah, as usual I will probably end up getting shafted.
and with that I must get ready to go to a family party. Excuse my premature withdrawl....
that's trif.. in and out.. in and out of here :D
She woody have stuck around for more banter, but she had to go play nice with the clan.
I think she was just trying to coitus some trouble
Another glib erection in an otherwise docile chat

we probably shouldn't be poking fun at trif :D
"google" will be acceptable one of these days - hi all

fw
should have found musical term, but was looking the other way.
LA6 = LA + Go4/6
wtg mixi, congrats!
congrats mixi
Would never have known a Latin musical term.
shent
Not a go4/6 for doing that
musical terms are Italian.
No, just some of them
This is a list of musical terms that are likely to be encountered in printed scores, music reviews, and program notes. Most of the terms are Italian, in accordance with the Italian origins of many European musical conventions. Sometimes, the special musical meanings of these phrases differ from the original or current Italian meanings. Most of the other terms are taken from French and German, indicated by "Fr." and "Ger.", respectively.
And there are American and Spanish musical terms as well.
All this has me vibrattoing with excitement
And now we are back to the turgid comments. Witzelsucht!!
Shudda, coda, wuddah
good morning all
hi nan
hello nan
does anyone see on the today's puzzle NaN+ hours left? what does that mean?
????
have seen it in the past, ru - I just ignore it. Today it says 11+ hours left, but just made fw, so .. think I'll mosey off if no clues are needed and get some eek work done
11+ hours left to the flip
mine has an hour glass and NaN+ hours left
so, Happy Babbling - see you next grid!
hopefully that isn't regarding OUR nan
:D
*Wonders if she has eek work to do
I certainly hope so too!
I go the la 6/7
So glad you go it
tymolly
I hae ag 5/14 ending in e can I get a clue for the other ag 5/14 please?
ending in s
Just a suggestion, when you say you got the ag5 ending in e, you have clued a word with three letters. Mostly, people just try to clue words with the first two letters.
ty dose
i was asking for a clue molly :)
*whoosh*
loonie is a word -- just wish I had more of them
Hiyas, kiddos!
i take it you aren't referring to crazy people then. what is a loonie?
... oh stop being so Canadian eh! ...there are enough foreing units of currency allowed in this game already without adding two more
... a loonie is a 1$ Canadian coin
it has a pic of a lo4 on it?
and that was foreign
and we also have a toonie
.. our national bird
you guys are so cool
what is a toonie - didn't know that one
... it's got a polar bear on it ... the mint wanted us to call it a bearie ... but already having a loonie who would resist calling a 2$ coin a toonie\
$2 coin
see we take money way too seriously in the states
I'll take your money. Seriously.
... so Canada is the only country in the world which can honestly say its currency is loonie toons ... because we've got both of them
... there is talk of a 5$ coin ... the question is ... whatever will we call that one?
calling it a toonie reminds me of that old joke about Yugo inventing a station wagon and calling it a Wego
foonie!
... that's just what I was thinking
... that would mean we could have foonie money
quintoonie!
... too long
... would be shortened to a quint ...
yeah but it's funny to have the formal latin combined with the goofy "oonie"
would anyone like to join me in listing out the 7s ?
i have: ag7, la7, ri7, tr7 x 3
AG 7/36, IN 7/36,
ah, in7, thanks, i wouldn't have thought of chopping the end off that 8
that just leaves two more
i have TR 7 x 2 - i have TR 7/36 and TR 7/28 - both pls - what am i missing?
... three sounds
another 28 pt meaning 3-colored
oh or sounds yeah, funny how our minds go different directions
... must admit my too often goes in too many different directions ... I'm just not as good at as as some
sounds makes more sense, but i was thinking of 2-colored cars being called two-_______ and so i went that way
thnx - got it
+
+
The in7s have me stumped.
when a guy says wanna come up and see my in 7-8? - say no!
in + *** you're it + most of a wild cat
... in + the little slip of paper which the store staples to clothing items and puts their price on + an old Chinese unit of distance that is about a third of a mile I think
I'm sure I"ve never heard that invitation before, Nan.
... you've never been to Rome then?
Alas, no.
how many IN 7s ?
Found them. Ty.
... one that I'm aware of but I'm still missing an "i"
also missing an I and also missing two 7s
... but it is an in7/36 in8/50 combo
have that one
only 1 IN7 and 1 IN8
thnx montreal
... yeah ... there is only one in7
np
Lost after the Chinese unit of measurement. Glad I already have the word.
Foreign units of measure and coins. Double torture.
yep...and i guess Canada is not foreign enough....
so judy -- does it depend upon the italian?
I suppose so, Nan. Although, I wouldn't have to be in Rome.
Well, as they say, when in Rome...
Hubby would probably insist on coming with me. Tsk. Such a third wheel.
Ri8?
ri8 tubular pasta
Ty, dan.
sure
*Plays Tubular Bells for the tubular pasta
Ag7?
* would rather just have the pasta *
Gotta throw in the towel. I have litter boxes to scrub. See y'all tomorrow! *POOF*

ag 7 please?
pissed off in italian
:D
actually a musical term in italian
don't know italian other than musical terms
oh -- mmmm
Ends like a French fry vegetable, but we have been corrected
it is a musical term to ag like a washer
ty ru
<--- speaking of had to buy a new washer
my other washer crapped out after three short years
ga 6 please?
which one?
first one please?
not guy + the beginning of a small thing
Same three as the second, ending like street violence
*!* -- ty molly & ru
time to produce some lunch - see you at the flip if I'm still awake.
are the first ti6/7 a combo?
Yes indeed they are. Obscure, oddball words.
monkeyed 'em! ty Molly & lickety and all cluers - that's firewords
have any of you folks ever had a word show up in your list that the letters were not in the puzzle...I just had the word "participation" show up, really strange!!
me again, after I wrote about the strange word...it vanished!
That hasnt happened to me
I was doing a grid once and had more words than what was listed and it changed and deleted those words
Weird. I just looked at my word list and it had the word witzelsucht. Then, suddenly, it was gone. Gremlins.
google is not a word?
googol is a word...
but not in the grid
nope....
i am done...
it was an easier grid than it first appeared....for me, anyway...
Barney Google, with the goo-goo-googley eyes
ag vowel po****es are good mashed or baked...ag7
