anike. maybe you need to reboot? sometimes that helps.
Can I do that on a tablet.?
hmmm, not sure.
i can list letters if you like.
Thanks but I will keep trying. Don't want to waste your time.
Anike, I find that rebooting anything electronic helps when there's a problem.
Some things have to sit for a minute or two so the memory can clear

You too Rose. I have to go and do some cycling because I begged off taking dog for walk today. My "kids" are very insistent t the moment.
Happy babbling everyone.
i cannot see the al6!
Ms McGraw & I had a ***icure this arvo
Am not that far down yet but I will take that with open arms! Thank you, Lynxxx! Hope you are well?
hi Zooz - lovely to see you. Everything is fine down here and happy that Winter is slowly exiting.
Goo Morning everybody. I'm rooting for Dorian to head straight west onto the properties of you-know-who!
Yes it is cooling down here so it will not be long before you get the beautiful sunshine & warmth back. It is always nice to see you, Lynxxx :-)
Hello, Ruby!
Hi Ruby
<I am very happy to see you!
Perfect weather here, cool in the mornings and almost hot in the afternoon. We could use some rain, but I'm not complaining with what's going on elsewhere
The weather here is sunny but only around 17c although that is better than being cold. I call this perfect conservatory weather lol. Well it would be if I had one haha!
If I order plants for next year's garden, is that a good sign of optimism?
toff
whoop
no more chat from me, but I can still read yours
LOL I love that sense of humour of yours, Ruby! Yes order those plants :-)
Make that word into a sticky sweet, Ruby!
I already did! LOL
My task now is getting through next winter though there have been time of late when I didn't think I'd mke it through the night
Glad to see your spirits are a little lighter this morning Ruby. Order those plants
Yes you have not had the best of time health-wise Ruby. Let's hope your health improves with the medication you are on.
Hello, Chrissiedee! long time no see. I hope you are keeping well?
Thank you both. I'm trying hard to keep Churchill's "black dog" away
Hi zooz. I am thank you
Talking of dogs I bet your two, Ruby are starting to get their thick coats back again now.
Don't usually have time to chat in the morning but no work today
Even without rain, there are still many roses, enough to cut for Inside and enough to look at, outside
Ooh A day off work! Nice. I hope you have a great day off then, Chrissie!
Hope you both have a good day too. Must make a move now
Rufie is going in tomorrow for grooming and a check-up. He looks like he belongs to a homeless person because I can't groom him properly.
I bet they look lovely in your home, Ruby!
Enjoy yourself, Chrissie!
((Chrissie)) It was nice to see you. Take care.
Aww will Rufie be okay with the grooming service? Or is he likely to get snarky?
He gets lots of tranqs first, then vet picks him up on her way to the clinic. She'll probably have to further sedate him because he doesn't like her She'll bring him home at the end of the day and I'll pray for a good outcome as he is my favorite
Bless. i wonder if he knows what is in store for him. It will be okay he will be glad once he has been all smartened up.
epial
not a word so do not bother trying LOL
I'm trying anyway. Isn't that the definition of Madness, trying Something over and over and hoping for a different outcome?
Haha! Trust me, Ruby, you are not alone in doing that. I for one just cannot help it if I see one in the chat log even when I know it is not a valid word I will still give it a go....Just in case you know!
I thought I had a 7 but no….
I found it a few minutes ago. What letters were you starting with?
ha like the light bulb. I felt so smart for 20 seconds!
You are smart, Ruby. You just felt smarter for 20 seconds :-)
You are too nice!
The 7 starts with a number. It is a compound word if that helps.
Thanks, but once I reach ha**, my goals are few and simple.
Thank you zoom!
That is all that matters, Ruby!
You are most welcome, Dpomfr :-)
Well my time is up and I still need 26 words. Will try and come back later to see if I can find anymore words. Take care ((Ruby)) Always a pleasure to see you! Happy babbling everyone!
62 words so far. Bye zzoozz, very happy to have seen you!

Last night I was wheeling my trash can out to the curb, and my neighbor came out on his front porch to tell me there's no trash pickup today. So I wheeled the can back in. Now the trash truck is here picking up trash. Thanks a lot neighbor!
I hate when that happens. Which schedule will the trash company follow? It is never consistent.
I know right?!?!
Is Dorian coming up your way?
Hard to tell, Scrabs. I'm in coastal Virginia, about an hour and half from NC border. The weather idiots are already predicting rain for Thurs and Fri here.
Be safe.
It's looking like the OBX might take a hit.
Yes I'm stockpiling water already. I have a Brita pitcher so I can filter water and pour into other containers to save.
Just bought the mondo pack of TP, and I have plenty of peanut butter. I'm good!

Presenting Iggy Martin and his Blues Band. In the ring we have Macho Nacho the Mexican wrestler. It's very versatile name
Sorry, gramma! Was to excited when you said you had a new grand, I didn't read the rest...
LOL! That might be a lot for a little guy to live up to! But I'm sure he will be able to handle it!

ep6/27
ep6
as in a book
ahhh thanks
oh, it's in a book? i thought that's where they got those pens that you use in an emergency for an allergic reaction
cut up an ep6 and whittle out all the ep.......
I had to use an epipen a few weeks back
Are you allergic to bees, ru?
Nuts
Mmm. Some one slip you one whne you weren't looking?
hence my difficulties breathing yesterday :D
yes at a restaurant after I asked about it three times..
geez
what do they think, people are just joking about it?
They need more training for sure.. it was awful for me
Was it actually a nut or an oil?
pistachio in a dessert
Sorry you had such a difficult time! And I know how awful those attacks can be...
I'm on baby duty...Guess I need to pay attention to the baby...=)
time for me to head out too. take care bzz
Let's hear it for the trolls!
what trolls?
I guess it takes one to know one huh old serenity
Herin lies the truth I guess
i'm confused
per serenity's note in her profile, i looked at yesterday's chat
sukee said one thing that could be construed as rude, to/aboout Marc, but that's about it
as someone who remembers the days of major chat drama, that seems like a very minor incident
and the definition of a troll is someone who intentionally comes to a chat JUST to bother people, or if a person or persons is/are so disruptive (like a whole classroom of kids) to the chat that nobody else can chat normally. the fact that one person bothers another just due to personality clash or saying the wrong thing now and then doesn't make that person a troll.
it's pretty inevitable for humans to say the wrong thing or misunderstand each other. talking about it and forgiving each other are usually good tools for handling those situations.
(end of hurshy's two cents)
hi
Howdy, all.
in a normal world yes hurshy that's true.. but that doesn't roll here as people are stuck with resentment for a long time and can't move on
hi cami and Hi judi
Great how is your day..
much better than yesterday :D
I'd sue the resturant, Ru. That is inexcusable.
They need Gordan Ramsey screaming in their faces, "you could KILL someone!!"
i could have used Ramsey.. i couldn't breath enough to yell though
has anyone got a clue for the wi5/28 please?
Get older, medusa.
While smartening up.
Thanks Judi
Hursh, did you really not see anything pretty awful in yesterday's chat? I thought most of it was reprehensible.
sorry if i offended anyone .. i was just protecting myself
Not you specifically, ru. The tone was, in general, pretty unpleasant.
The repetition of (paraphrased) "HOW DARE YOU SAY SUCH A THING" is kinda eye-rolling
Fireworks! Glad I missed all that drama yesterday.
'Grats on fireworks! And grats on missing yesterday!
could I have the stats for the z please?
zo 5/28
Thanks Hursh for bringing that up. Quite frankly I did not know where Sukee was coming from when she made that comment. I do apologize to everyone if I have either seemingly ignored a request or have been rude or unpleasant in any chat.
Thanks got it
I've never seen you be either one. I have seen people get upset when people who ask for clues don't give them as well, or at any number of other such "offenses", and I think you got caught in that net.
A "friend" brought me pastry from her restaurant with Phantom nuts. I was sick for two days I keepan epipen in the fridge but didn't see the nuts
Speaking of nuts …………...
I have friends who are allergic to onions and one of them once got caught by a PIECE OF PIE that she ordered for desert in a restaurant. Fucking allergens are EVERYWHERE.
I've developed all my allergies in the past 10 years and I'm old!
Ugh. How terrible! Just to start getting sick, randomly, because you're doing the same things you've been doing all your life.
ho5/32 please?
That's what happened with both oatmeal and peanuts.
Ends with a double consonant, medusa
OATMEAL?
thanks
oatmeal, raw peas and nuts, but I think they're all taxonomivally related
Ghod. That's . . . . I am generally not a worrier, but I go camping sometimes far from civilization and I am sorta terrified that on one of these trips I'll discover that I'm allergic to something, and that discovery will come because I can't breathe anymore.
You should carry an epipen when yu go camping
fo5 please
Can't. They're by prescription only in the US, and I have no actual allergies so can't get prescribed one.
kind of like a book of modeling books, usually a port****o, but change the last letter
fo5 -- It's similar to a word usually preceded by "port", as in an artist's portfo5". But change the last letter.
thanks
Even if I could get one, ruby, they're stupidly expensive here. But yeah, I'd generally consider one part of a normal first aid kit.
Aaaaand firewords. See y'all tomorrow.
*poof*
last do5 please
got it
8 left
first al5 please
nm
Does the ho5/32 end with the same double consonant or two different ones? I'm really stuck trying to find the right combination for it. It should be easy from the letter count, but I'm being very blind here today. Many thanks
de5/22 please
Jax it’s the same
Thanks got it. Only combo I can't have tried
nm. fireworks
Good afternoon … could someone give stats for the 7, please...
tw7/60
thx, Carla...
should have seen that one...
I think I've mentioned before I have celiac, and while getting glutened won't drop me dead like nut allergy, it will kill slowly over time and make me sick in the meantime, so I feel you allergies people's pain. I don't even like to eat out at restaurants anymore because it's such a chore.
bojazz, I missed it as well when I was playing.
have to remind myself … all words don't start with a consonant followed by a vowel...
yep, which is why I said earlier I would never look for a dh word if I didn't see it in the list first.
I also have trouble remember words can start with a vowel until I see them in the little squares below the grid. :D
vowel starting are always tough (aside from the babblets) and I tackle them first and try to get them off the board...
smart. they are usually the ones I have the least of when I go to the list and I usually have to skip and go back.was super happy today there was only one e.
Tw7 clue please?
Number + what you do to the dry laundry before you put it away
Thanks!
