Do you have a couple of ta words in the same format, hurshy?
i haven't done T yet but i just found them :D
that is, i did the BOTTOM T but i haven't yet touched the left one
and by the way if you like a challenge that is always a good one - trying to find all of a lower letter without touching an upper one of that same letter
Too clever for me!
well like i said it is only if you ENJOY a challenge :)

Morning all! Has anyone stats for the Es in the first column, please?
thetop one is ed 5/12 I don't have the bottom one
Thank you Diane!
Hi matty I'm not usually here in the middle of the night but I could not sleep :-(
That happens to me sometimes. It's 10.52 am here...and I'm still in bed drinking coffee and I've just eaten a crumpet. Very lazy Saturday morning
Sounds perfect to me!
I've just had a cup of tea and am going to try this sleep thing again. I just did 163 words and it's a fun grid so far.
I shall finish my coffee whilst trying to get halfway - we'll see whether halfway or bladder comes first. Once bladder calls I shall shower ;)
(TMI?)
Maybe matty, but made me chuckle
Glad to hear it! I'm all showered, dressed and relieved now ;)
Why isn't realtor recognized??
You can't form it with this grid though
Never mind, yes you can , it's early
:)
It's a registered trademark.
There are words I try every time if they're in the grid even though I KNOW they don't work. Oreo is a classic one
I still don't have the E in the bottom left corner - does anyone have stats for it, please?
et6
Thanks Kallia - looking. Is it et6/18?
yes it is...diagonal
sort of
Found it, thanks!
yw

Anyone have the single e word right under the D in 1st column?

Thank you ladycece
you really didn't need it :)
HA but thank you anway
Are you near Tampa?
Ocala
I'm a fan of Siesta Key, and used to vacation there often before this stupid virus.
so sorta close to Tampa!
I have a friend who goes there also. I've never been but it was a place I was planning to go until....
I have a childhood friend who lives in Tampa, she came to meet me in Siesta Key last time I was there. It's an amazing beach!
If the virus ever ends, we should all meet up there :)
great idea
Boom!
Hi Bzz!
Hey, monkey. How was your holiday?
It was super quiet :( My workplace has had an outbreak, so I had to cancel plans to have dinner at a friend's house. Can't risk possibly spreading the virus.
How was yours?
I'm sorry, but I understand. I hope everyone at you workplace is better soon. My bil went to rehab after heart surgery and contracted the virus.
It was quiet as wel. Just Mr. Bea, Momma and me. And too much food. Our grands are back onsite school, so daughter said they would be staing away.
Right now we have 3 positive patients, and 2 positive staff. All being quarantined.
Taking an oatmeal break. BBL!
mornig all! fiblet (n) a tiny lie

Looks like we might have some sun today.

I just have 7 from that A
nipple words :-)
nipple
dan, I always miss those and you always seem to get them ;)
I will say that I missed the longer or4/4 words at first
that is enigmatic. or4 that is longer than the nipple words?
fe7 and fe8
well I found one AU so now I have 7 from there. moving on!
ah, now I get what you're saying. I did find fe7 quite easily. did not have the 8, thx
dumb question maybe is the fe8 hooked to the 8?
Yes. One who

and never dumb questions!
hi folks
Welki!
bea!
I hope you are doing well today.

ms. apple, the singer is in the grid - but federal is not
hokie!
The Kinks "girl" is in the grid
and the answer to your first part, welki, if we're doing NTPN, is Fiona.
...she walked like a woman, but talked like a man
ding ding ding
took me a while to find that - i need more coffee
*belated dings for fiona apple*
:D
Two words from having the bottom row grey...
I'm not seeing the bottom E. Need 3 T and 2 B for bottom row.
but finished first pass. got halfway on all tiles except that bottom E. 96 left still.
1 T, 2 B and 1 E for me
et6.18
found 2 more T's there
keep wanting to make etoile but it's not there
Oh! My missing T was my fish!
Bottom row grey.
ha! that's the one I was missing too. :D
found the e
is it a regular word?
it's in the grid pretty often
(but not a word used in everyday conversation)
ah, got it
now just the 2 Bs. already made up a couple there.
i don't have them either
The only weird ones in the Bs are 4's
those are the 2 I made up then
I'm assuming all BL
Yes
Do you have a 6?
yes
Three 5's
ok, missing one. my brother just called so I guess I'll BBL.
I don't yet have an eight - can anyone give me stats for any eight (ideally one that is a word I've actually heard of), please?
some say halos, other say nipple rings :D
Thank you!
matty, how can I say this delicately, one who gives BJs
very delicate. subtle nuance, pg 13 rated
haha
well, someone had to say it - i chickened out with nip rings :D
hi all. any clues and stats for 8s welcome.
two were just given, mkg
I literally just clued fe8.
I assume welki's is ar8 but haven't found it yet
correctamundo
ty
Ha! I only have two 8's...The pg 13 words.
I've been off looking for leftover recipes.
not seeing the clues for 8s............can you tell me what time they were clued? sorry
fiblet...a teeny tiny lie
The ar6 and ar7 can be made into au7 and au8.
Bless you, Haz!
You're welcome.
ty haz. trying to find them. ugh.
thx, haz, but I am being dim. ar7 is not turning into au8 for me.will try a different ending.
got it, thx
ta8 - created by a material expert.
got the au words! ty
Thx!
tr8/45 - brought to you on wheels
Thank you!
You're welcome.
ooh, just found the girl scout cookie
Thank you, Carla
Looking for the tr8
ugh not getting the tr or ta 8s. sorry guys.
yeah, I have tr7 that fits the clue and ta6 but not getting the 8s
tr8 - think of Mr Rogers and his transport.
The TA - think tinker ta6 soldier spy
ta8 is the way a man's suit is made.
Gotya - thanks! Have 4 of the 5 eights now
Carla - i'm not seeing thin mints in the grid ;)
i have the ta 6 but dont see an 8 from it.
it's the shortbread
Make it pt
I think I found the shortbread - thanks!
oh my. ty. i was using wrong R for the ending. ty
got it.
missing the bottom corner e word. help please.
was totally going the wrong direction on the ta, so I finally saw it the other way
et6 - e plus a bird claw.
I love the way the Brits say aluminum
aluminium
ty haz. got it.
We spell it differently as well - aluminium
What gets me is how the Brits say lieutenant - there's no F in that word!
leftenant, yeah, what the heck
I don't know either (re lieutenant, unless it relates back to the original French).
I had Bea's breakfast suggestion today. Warm sausage stuffing with cranberry on top. Amazing.
also missing that L word for the 4th row L.........darn! every word i think if is the top L. help welcome. ty
I just had turkey breast with sausage stuffing, cranberry sauce, mayo and lettuce on Jeff's home-made bread
I'm going to make a casserole with the leftover dressing, potatoes and cranberries
Google knows all...According to military customs, a lower ranking soldier walks on the left side of a senior officer. This courtesy developed when swords were still used on the battle field. The lower ranked soldier on the "left" protected the senior officers left side. Therefore, the term leftenant developed.
right now we only have leftover dressing left.
I'm.....not convinced ;)
I saw a recipe for dumplings made from the dressing.
Matty, that is referred to as THE sandwich in my family around this time of year. As in, Have you had THE sandwich yet?
Also, muffings.
muffins form dressing.
The bread fresh out of the oven really made it
I made mine in mini loaf and muffin pans this year
Throw them in the frezer.
Stuffins are great. I make them in mini muffin pans for an appetizer.
mr. homie and I will probably finish them off today
mkg - that L in the fourth row is le4/4
I reheated everything last night. Now I need to get creative.
ty
I made a vat of turkey soup yesterday.
got it haz. ty
That's good.
This grid needs and S.
amen bea
53 left. Need to get to the Farmer's Market...
Good morning everyone
bye bea!
morning, car
hi all. help with ta8. saw the clue but it did not help
ta8 - 'My suit is expensive, it has been individually ta8 for me'
ty haz
ty Haz and I already had the base word "sigh"
You're welcome.
I still can't find tr8, and I have tr7
tr8 - find the cart used in shopping expeditions and past tense it.
british shopping that is hokie
Or Mr Rogers bus.
Or the mode of transportation in San Francisco
Truber
damn it
:D
I guess the tr7 is not related then? now I'm even more confused.
No, forget about the tr7. Look at tr 6 instead.
Or, say that the internet nuisance is untruthful as well.
Or was untruthful to be precise.
Ding ding ding went the tr7 Ring ring ring went the bell
I found the TR 7/40 right away...its a great word
got it, thanks to all
I was thinking tr7 thing with wheels
that you pull behind a truck
now just have to figure out how to make ar8
got it, 8's finished!
Well done!
..it takes a village...

ty haz

rehi
hi...
should i just use the list for my last 13? hmmm
wondering if I should for last 52.
i found it a very accessible grid, at the flip
<-- she's in the grid! Rilla :D
well I'm 3 T's away from having bottom 2 rows gray. just so many there, it's probably something easy.I'm also sure there are probably some I entered that didn't take as usual with the big ones
got the 4 prefix?
there are 6 th words
have all th, not sure about four prefix
4 prefix is also a fishy, a neon t----
that's what I thought but that's bottom T
i thought that's what you said you needed lol
if it is 3 left T, well, i am missing 3 from there also! :D
sorry, I didn't specify which T in bottom 2 rows, did I
are all 3 u's ur?
yes
thx, dolly
yw
ok, lunch break over. still 52 for later. :D
oho, my last word was a girl scout cookie
ty hurshy!

hi again :)
hi nan
fial
Shortbread.....yummy
no shortbread in the grid?
what are the stats?
hi cyber
hi une
hi peri
ho hurshy
i meant hi not ho sorry
I guess there is a cookie somewhere in the grid -- girl scout apparently. Don't know where the shortbread comes in
i think the girl scouts have a shortbread cookie
trying to find those middle ar's -- no luck -- any clues please?
Doubt it -- other than the mint, they all taste like cardboard :)
cyber it starts with tr
or christie's cremes which are just as bad
i just googled it
cyber i have ar 5 and a ar 6/7 combo
clue for the 6-7 combo please?
If you get the ar6/18, the two 7's and the 8 following start with it
ends in coca c***
The ar6/18 has to do with female anatomy
cyber is trying to figure out the clue for a girl scout cookie
ty -- thought that was an au word
its the tr 7
yw
have no idea what the girl scout cookie is
blah isn't in the grid
cyber ends in fo4 tin fo**
oh - the shape on the cookie :)
i guess
ty mlf
yw
I think maybe they don't sell those in Canada
did you get the word gil?
have all the ar's now
I think so
tr 7 -- the girl scout symbol
")
i hve3 ar word
have
but as a shortbread maker, I take exception to them being called shortbread :D
I'd forgotten that it's a Girl Scout symbol - I just think of it as Celtic
drop the u from the au 7-8, then try different endings for the ar 7-8
yes well --- everyone wants to be a scot :)
i dont have the au 7/8 combo
except hurshy who wants to be irish and molly who is irish
Maybe it's just Christian, actually
do you have the ar 6-7? add a u
i now have the au7
and the au8
use a different ending for the ar 6 for the ar 7-8 combo
i have it already
2 ar 7?
yes
ar 6, 7. 7, 8
a's annihilated
hello...can I get help with the di7...either one

I just have one

there is a 7 right after that di6 carla
double the consonant

the last 3 fe 6's begin the same. The last one ends with a fib
ok, got it now, thx
yw - anything else?

add a consonant to the li 5 before it

Congratulations penquis on your fi4/5works display! YAY!
good evening friends. my oh my, what a grid! my first 8 was eyebrow raising!
on a more pleasant note, secondo's real name is in the grid!
Hi Trif
hi lynxxx
is the bottom lone e an eo?
no - do you want stats?
yes please, mercy!
et6.18. I am gone - good luck
thank you! and take care
realtor is too a word.
Apparently, it's trademarked, which would make it a proper noun, I think
Huh. Who knew?
I don't think it's used in Britain - they have "estate agents" instead, I believe
I learn something new every day.
hi all. back to try to get half way done. ugh. with NBT and NBS i cant even ask for clues.
i have only one F word for the F in fifth column. it is fu4 8. would love clues for any others. ty
mkg. fu5 fu + not walk. then for fu6 add a vowel
fr4. fr + two vowels not the same
fr5. fr + most of what you give to a landlord + vowel
you give a landlord rent? money? hmmmm. not seeing it
monkeys not working for this one.
got the others though so ty.
why doesnt it take freon? is that a brand name?
still need 7 words
Actually, freon is trademarked too
ty
ok reached half way. whew.
congrats!
night all
I thought realtor was a word...
Trademarked, apparently
really??
According to the definition at Oxford Languages
googled it-- not so-- Enable disabled it...
didn't look there, just looked up google def.
Specifically designates a member of the National Association of Realtors
relier
oops sorry
does one have to be a member to be just a plain realtor?
Technically, I guess so
weird...
In England, I think they call them "estate agents" or "real estate agents"
fw! Good night, all.
night Gillie - it is 7am here - day just starting
