Hi Ursh, hi all
hi
Clues are up
Thanks, Lickety
to 7 - wonder what ru will do with this one
good find nan
Thanks nan - Ursh too for the earlier find.
thanks for keeping me abreast of the word nan
Glad you were titillated by nan's find.
I kept nippling at the to 7 until I found it
just need the u for nbt nbs - any ideas ?
ud 4/6
u + 2 in spanish
ty liz - looking
got it tx
yw
to be honest liz.. I was hooting when I found it
I can't compete! I wish I was quicker at these puns cos they make me smile!
normally I'm a boob at it too
Or, dare I say it, groan! How's the count going?
That's a groan there, by the way.
tough year.. everyone is used to my sick humor now
I just monkeyed a drug. I think I'll retire to the PB and have a smoke . . . .
Still enjoy it though!
i cant find anything to smoke ?
Any other 7s found?
old Indian dream drug
stats jwr ?
pe6/27
Ah! Have that - never checked the meaning.
you can chew the "buttons" too.
now you know. It's an hallucinogen
I know it by it's other name
nasty taste though. What other name, Liz?
mescalin
It was in a song from the 70s - trying to remember the song
And failing - can't even remember the correct lyrics, so google isn't helping.
Once you have the melody, you have the lyrics. That;s why rap doesn't have the same effect. Mescaline comes from the peyote plant but they are slightly different alkaloids. the peyote itself is more complex ... (so I've heard . . .) . It's different the same way THC and marijuana are.
Happy Nightmare - Focus. So glad I found it.
Where did you find it Liz?
I googled 70s songs containing word mescaline and it came up. I could hear it in my mind.
Only once in a life, mescaline Floating over a mountain, like to sea Stop and faint at the sun, feel the blood through your arm Only once in a life, mescaline
Ahh. I don't know much of anything American about the 70s; spent most of that decade in Japan.
They were a Dutch Rock band. I first came across them when I was still at school
Good grief! They weren't fooling around, those songsters.
In the UK
From the album In and Out of Focus - just listened on iTunes.
Time for a break.
Couldn't find it on YouTube but I found another of the same title. Hard rock, driving rhythm. Can't make out the lyrics but who cares. It's from 87 though.
That was fun, Liz. Thanks for the pointer.
I'll see if I can find it on YouTube and post the link if I can.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=190bnN\nVuNYw
That's the one I found ... not yours. But still... it sounds as if it were 70s!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKPViU\noatqw
I
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKPViU\noatqw - you'll need to take out the /n
Oops! Should've been a forward slash!
Alternatively go to Youtube music - and search Focus Happy Nightmare.
Back in a minute
group is Opal. Ah. I keep forgetting to put any links into TinyURL before posting on Babble. That takes out all the problems. see ya
crashing -- good night
Don't like using tiny url - happier just to split the URL. Back for a few minutes. We're mad enough to feed the wild birds outside and they were creating havoc outside!
Sleep well nan
WOW. That was a one of the best descriptions of an acid trip I've ever heard. Night nan, Gotta go myself Liz. very nice joining up in the time-back machine.
Sleep well - it was fun
Going to work
Will get back on Babble in between calls. Makes the night ... more normal, less crazy.
good morning all
finally.... i have been popping in and out of here so much you can call me yo-yo.... {{sprite}} hugs and kisses sweetie.
*hugs yo-yo* Lovely to see you, my dear friend. Have had two days at Noud's, family constellations. How are you doing on your new meds?
really well. sleeping well, FM not rearing it's ugly head. exhausted though. Thom's Place Friday, all day selling raffle tickets at a local shopping centre Saturday. no church today. way too tired.
wow sweetie... I hope you are taking all the rest you can... you know you are overdoing things! Good news about the FM pain, that is awesome.
when everyone asked Don where was I, and he told them what i had been doing and why i wasn't at hurch, apparently there were a lot of guilty faces.
*church*
it would be nice if they did not let it stop at the guilty face, but actually transformed it into some action.
yeah it would. next week i have something happening everyday....and there is nothing i can do about it. i will rest where i can...
how about standing up in church and asking: who is going to do A.? And who is going to do B.?
so... how did 'constellations' go ? with Rob's issues woven in ?
I didn't bring in a question, I just assisted. So no, nothing about Rob's situation. But it was an amazing two days. Very deep processes and baffling representations. Powerful. I decided to stay home today, no meeting, body is hurting too much still. So that gives me a chance to play babble with you too :D
i am going to leave the "standing up in church' to Don. i am just too tired to handle it.
it would be a good thing if he did. Simply stating that there is more help needed to get everything done, and listing the tasks.
nice that you are here. xoxox
nice to be here :D I missed you. Will answer your email later today too.
np's honey. only if you feel you have to do so. just seeing you here is soooo good.
answering your email will be a pleasure, no worries.
when will your life go back to manageable activeness?
not for another 6 weeks or so. it's because i now have cardiac rehab Tuesdays, and lenten studies Wednesdays.after Easter all should settle a little.
all good things, but a bit too many. *sending rose a truckload of energy*
Ru if you are around, remember 8am tomorrow morn my time.
diz, g'day honey. how are you doin?
hey Rose, holding up ok...miss Hubby heaps, but have had g/kids staying with me to keep me on my toes.
poor sweetheart. i am sure you do. prayers and gentle hus heading your way.
*hugs*
thnx xx
hi dizzy, so very very sorry to hear about your loss.
ty sprite
adap t
good one. Hiya flosey *hugs* how are you, dear lady?
oops, sorry
and heeeerrrreer's FLOSEY !!!
BIG HUG for a lovely lad. xoxox
ugh *lady*
*amazed at how fast sex changes are made in babble*
not good tonight, went to bed 2 hours ago with a good strength sleeping pill but no go!!, bad headache but sleep eludes me
aw that is nasty :(
poor flosey
sure is, but tks for sympathy, Sprite and Rose
we're here to keep you company, and to hug you until you get sleepy.
ty ty ty
the fencing pa7 is my new word learned for today
Morning
pads
sorry!
morning matty! *hugs*
Hugs back! It's a cold, bright, sunny morning here
whoot!!! hugs matty and also to your other 'alf.
here as well. We've been having days like that for almost a week now. Very cold, but lovely winterweather.
He's looking after his (senile) mum last week and this as his sister, who is her full time carer, is on holiday. It's been tough!
And hugs to Rose and Don!
wow that is taxing. Great that his sister can take a well-earned break though.
So he's up north and I'm here (I have to work during the week so...) but anyhoo, I'm in bed with coffee and Babble :) How are y'all (I've caught up on the chat - so gentle hugs to both for what I've read!)
it is tough to take care of an older relative whose mind has deteriorated. gold stars to himself for giving his sister a break. don's sister had to be beaten into submission before she would take her mother for more than a few days.
don's sister needs her ass kicked daily, by a very big strong man. Just sayin'.
Jeff's been doing it last week and will do it all next - back a week from today. He finds it really hard because it's like there's a bratty alien who has taken over his mum's body
not easy at all, poor Jeff. Dementia is like bodysnatchers and pod people for sure.
Yeah - and Jeff (and his sister) really almost worshipped their parents for their upbringing. Jeff's dad died in November and now there's this alien who looks like Margaret but isn't
tell im to hang in there matty. he DOES get to hand his mum over to his sister soon. just imagine what she goes through, every day.
must be hard for them, to cope with all that loss
What's the stats for your PA7 fencing term (I have the wiki article open fencing to try to get a clue) ;)
pa7/36 :)
Yeah - she's 85 this year, Dennis was also 85 when he died - so it's not wholly unexpected but never easy
pa7/36
and even harder when your parents were great parents and great people
Yep. My mother was slipping into senility when she died but she'd agreed to go into assisted living and she never got so far down that road and never so aggressive
You do mean fencing the sport, not the job of putting a fence up ...
fencing the sport, yes. One of the moves.
fireflies. Not a tough grid.
I've only just begun
a big *hug* to both of you, and one extra for rose :) Have a blessed day and a peaceful night... and rose, darling... take care of yourself as best as you can, okay?
Have a wonderful day, Sprite
flosey, if you are still here, *hugs* and I hope you will be able to sleep soon, and that your headache will be gone upon waking.
WTG SPRITE !!! xoxox for a special person.
night matty. the week will be over very soon and you and himself will be back together. hugs for you both.
thank you Sprite, so sweet of you, headache is starting to wane, not throbing
Have a good night and sleep well - talk soon! xx
have found 51 words, 109 for tomorrow, head seems to be calming down so will try to sleep now
Good night all
Okay first run through and have 33 left to find. Still need one more 7. Will have to wait untill later. Happy babbling everyone!
Oh great. Get out your Scot word lists, boys and girls.
Good morning (for you, for me it's a very cold afternoon)
Chilly and rainy here, but at least it's not snow, thank God.
Coldest night so far,but dry
I hope your cold days and nights are over soon.
Me too, enough is enough
lt's great for sleeeping, but not much else*
I'm already thinking about what to plant and how to fix up the patio when the weather gets warmer.
The garcden guy is coming next week to prepare the garden and clean up the winter detritus
dale
dales

WRONG BOX!
OOPS
Ooo, I would love to have a "clean up the detritus" guy
He's terrific, a schizophrenic who takes his meds!
He is one of my "angels" without whom l couldn't survive here
l would like to do the gardening as l used to, but now l can barely make it to the fishpond!
There's a lot of French slang in here: condom, bzd guy, and more LOL
l teach Fr friend English bad words; they teach me Fr ones
I'm glad you have "angels", Ruby.
l do as much as l can, but there are days when that's VERY little

np
ouch! my left big toe just starting hurting for no reason
Oh Deeha.... Snowmageddon is predicted here....I''m unsure whether to heed the warnings or not....
Oh no! Soodle, I would say Head the Warnings!
well, I have 7 left, I am going to go take a nap. I didn't leave work early for no good reason...
I've been laughing at the "Beast From The East" thing all day.
Lol, Hannah!!!! You're 14!!!! Wait another 40 or 50 years & every bone/joint in your body will ache, for no apparent reason!!! Sorry, Han, but it's a fact! :-/
ik
its usually my right big toe that starting hurting for no reason
ive had a few other thing start hurting for no reason, like the other day shooting pain was going along both sides of my pelvic bone
Gout
what?
Oh Molly- we're all persecuted with weather warnings. The Beast from the East..... for goodness sake.... As usual it will probably be a non event....
The weather people like to be Drama Queens about such things.
Hannah... if you have health concerns, go see a doctor. Trust me! If you self diagnose on Google, you'll drive yourself nuts. Have a parent/ guardian take you to a qualified medic.
im not self-diagnosing myself, it was only that time so im not worried
oh im getting surgery on friday, i need to get my nose cauterized
Oh my
its ok, my brother had got it and he´s just as annoying as he was before
Yeah
but me personally, im a little nervous, because its my first surgery
I have incorrectly diagnosed myself with several brain tumours, cholera, galloping influenza, diphtheria, & insanity among other interesting ailments. Medical evidence has proved me wrong on most !
was insanity one of the ones you got right soodle :D?
The jury is out on insanity....

GA peach, a fancy electric car? He and Edison were rivals
And wow Min, end of February and you are just getting done with your winter break? We were done with winter break months ago.
I agree that was quite funny, Molly
I am glad it is at the end of February. We get back Xmas break at beginning of Jan so I do not need another break right away. My next break will be Spring break in April.
So you have Christmas break AND winter break?
I had to break up the critters.....sorry. Now I have to find where I was....LOL
Yes, we get three weeks off during the school year&then some other long weekends in between. Hope to be in my new apt by my next vacation. Then I'll have good break.
similar to schools here....usually about 9 days at Christmas (counting weekends), a week in Feb., a week in Apr. (always the week of the third Monday of the month).....no Easter break to speak of....
Yay for the new apartment!
Well I actually do not have one yet,but I've been looking.

Time for a new life for Min. I'm all for that.
T's Trampled! 6 left

dilly dilly!.... ;o)
Thank you very much MollyL! I wish babblers lived closer so I could invite you all to my "New Life" party.
we can always party in the PB.... :oD
<---Trying to figure out what dilly dilly means. Min, you have a great NEW LIFE party. We will be there in spirit.
been watching too much TV here....it's from a series of ads....
lavender's blue, dilly dilly. English folk song
in the ads it's means like "here, here!"....
I don't think it has any specific meaning. The rhyme and song date back to the 1400s
the ads take place hundreds of years ago as well....
