Thank you, Dee
Good morning, IG.
Hi, Scrabbler
Morning, all :-)
Hi, Une
hi all
Hey!!
Taking pups out to pee in ice and snow.....back in a bit.....
sounds fun (not)
Whew! Fastest they've ever peed.....13 degrees!!
I bet. I am surprised they didn't just decline.
It's hovering around 20 here but the snow was all but a no show.
7" at my house!
we still have snow left over from earlier this week, but it looks like a half inch for my area in DC. maybe not that much
I am happy not to shovel. But I wish they would plow
Gave up on shoveling yesterday.....as fast as I shoveled, the "path" filled up with snow and sleet!
ugh I remember a storm like that here years ago. . .but then I was years younger. I shoveled so I wouldn't have to shovel twice as much later
Bitter cold today but no precip.....yay!
I am happy that I upgraded the insulation in my kitchen this last fall. It has been paying off this winter. Next is ceiling fan reconfiguration--since I don't like A/C
it's always somethinge
Good Morning from snowy NH
i would think an old codger could be codgy
hi river
hi hursh
maybe codgery :D
it says enable wouldn't take that either :(
oh well so much for coined words
Be thinks this grid is a bit of a stinker.
you have a cold? :)
(i joke because you said "be" instead of "me")
Typos may be why this one is tough.
well i'm definitely finding the Cs tough for other reasons also
The G's are troublesome too.
Found a member of the Camelidae family.
The Master Gardener strikes again.
Ahh, but this is not a plant.
Oh, who are you, HarpJane the animal blurter? : D
I really don't see any such animals. But maybe it is more obscure
not llama
hahaha well done bichon!
You guys will never see it. I had to look it up.
thanks Bea! had to google to find it
It is about as obscure as they come.
I didn't see it after looking it up!
not guanaco
Well there you go folks
PB full of fresh crow
haha yes it is bichom gu7
This is why we don't post our guesses without trying them first
doh!!!
and hope we don't have a typo when we do try them
Step away for a sec and look what happens...
well I have nbs now.
texan...had to try it.
Well it does accept a version of it.
Found a sloth.
Had to say that for Molly.
hehehehe
Mr. X is getting a work out today.
yes, I was surprised to the see that
and HOET is in the grid
It is about time. That letter has been lazy for far too long when in previous grids.
Are the two Rs hard to find words or am I just being blind today?
they were easy for me because i had recently been shopping for this item
they are hard to find for me. . . but I am not the best player
it's like a sort of a shawl type thing, i think it must be like a spanish or portuguese origin
ru5/12 and pl
Where did you but them, hursh?
spanish kicked me over the edge. . . nbt
buy
Ah thank you, Hurshy!
I think I tried every combo apart from that haha.
i was looking on ebay, ended up finding something at Savers that worked for me for only $3
see i had tried on a really good one at savers and not bought it and then was kicking myself ever since. so the one i got is fine but i sure wished i had bought the other one when i had the chance. shopping for it online was less good because i couldn't tell how thick/heavy they were
I like to buy my products in the shop so I can see them. The only thing I will buy online without looking at it in person are books.
A woman saw a picture of hand made table and chairs online and thought they were a bargain price so paid for them When she received them she was shocked to see they came in a little box. She had purchased dolls house furniture haha! Bless her.
you have to read the details. I just missed buying a box rather than the object it used to hold.
There are loads of examples like that on youtube. Some are quite funny. Glad it is not me though.
What is HOET?
Half On Each Tile.
Thanks!
I am down to 17 left and still no 7 lettered word.
That 7 is the camel relative.
gu7 zooz
Oh! Okay. Was going to say all I can think of is llama haha
Nope still not getting this one lol will try a little longer.
hrllo
Zoozzoom, i love the story of the furniture! Wonderful. I also like to see what i am buying in person.
um, let'd try this again....hello
hello
I dont know the camel relative. Cant think of an animal starting with gu.
Hello T Owl! â¤ï¸ðŸ¦‰
hey zooz...did you check out that band yet?
gull
Finally got the GU7 thank you!
good morning all
Fireworks for me.
yay!
But gull is not in grid. Struggling. Any clues for what happens after the gu? Ty. All clues welcome
whoohoo zooz!
it is just an animal that starts with gu
HI JE
HI TEACH
I saw pictures of them but did not hear any music from them. Gives me the name again and I will see if they are on youtube. Please.
hi teach!
Hello, Teach!
googled the camel relative
the band is wet leg, the song here is chaise longue
beautiful snowy morning - especially since I do not need to go outside
Same here, Teach went to nhpbs.org in the end to find the word.
lol a local place name is an actual enable word!
Ah okay. Will go and check them out now. Thanks.
yes, the sun is shining brightly, the air is clean, the snow is fluffy and the neighbor cleared the driveway...
i have a few other bands i am liking now, i will tell you when next i see you.
pung
They seem quite good! I am listening to it's too late. The videos are rather unusual I kind of like that. What other bands were you thinking of sharing?
i need to think. i am in the midst of performer reviews for the festival in August, so a bit muddled. i will say i like the new music from my morning jacket.
the video for chaise longue is really interesting. i heard them interviewed about their music.
the acts i have reviewed so far- local tier- have not been very memorable. some singer wongwriters, a pop S/S with lots of tv song placements...
but here is something to amuse you. wet leg appears on my acquaintance boilen's best of 2021 list.
tinyurl.com/2p895ysn
Just watching an interview they did right now. They seem rather shy and you can see they are not used to being interviewed lol. Will check out the tinyurl in a sec. Thanks again.
you're most welcome. it's nice to tqalk with a fellow music lover.
in the interview i read, the one told how the other asked her just to dance for the video. it's hilariously self conscious
the videos have a kind of post modern vibe.
They seem to be very grounded which I like. I hope they do not lose that.
what a strange and wonderful video! thank for sharing.
there is a broadcast of a bowie birthday tribute here you can see on line at noon our time. it's about 11 right now
phantom: expanse
Okay so 5pm for me then.
normally i would be there for it but covid forced a rerun. here is the link:https://xpn.org/events/free-at-no\non
i did not attend this one so i am looking forward to seeing if they live up to the hype.
Candy Volcano yes?
yes.
i've looked for live videos but all i find on youtine are teasers and promos.
but it sounds like it will be good music to clean by.if such a thing exists :/
Nah I will forget about the cleaning and just enjoy the music haha!
the snow plow just came through, so i will have to undo their mischief to my driveway
Oh Yuck! Good luck with that.
let's hope they are good. i work at nearly all of these shows and only a few wow me
nah, this is an easy one, and it's that brilliant blue sky after storm weather.
need to move. see you!
Thanks for the recommendations, T owl toodle pip!
Hi all. Back for more. Would love stat and clues for one of the 6s. Ty

...just google "camel relative" ...
Ty. Great clue doseffing

Gee sophie, i tried that and didndt get it.
But got it from camel relative. Ty.
Still missing so many tiles. Any clues for the o word second column o? Ty
mkg.... took me to crossword puzzle words
hang on I have that one

animal
ty for the gu bird droppings clue dos - well done :)
good morning everyone :)
Hey, Nan!
wheeee i love how pretty the snow is
... I didn't have the nerve to give it so I just repeated the clue that I got it from originally ...
... well 3o kilometers north of here they got 20-25 centimetres of it yesterday ... I'm sure that they'd love to send you some to make it really pretty ...
phantom: gamut
well we've got our own already haha
... ah well ... I missed it ... but I'm between two snow belts that got nailed...
we have 19 degrees this morning, so don't think any of the 7 inches we got will be melting soon
hovering on the melting point here which could make things dicey with 2 feet of snow on the ground.
... yeah ... sorry Sophie ... checked the weather network for Nashville and you're not losing much snow for the next two weeks ... sorry
thanks, dos, as long as the electricity stays on, my doggo and I should be fine :)
... do you use the electricity for heat or just to run the motor on a gas furnace? ...
tough grid - stuck at 41
... down to 32 but can't argue with the tough grid assessment ... ah well ... time for lunch ... luck to all who continue the struggle ...
20 here, yeah, stinker was the right word
dos, good question, I just moved here in July.... but I do have a gas bill, so.....
downsized to a townhouse, my poor dog wants to run around in the snow, but there's not a big back yard like she's used to.....so instead of the zoomies, it's just more of a ZT.
is there a leash rule in your complex Sophie?
hello all
hi aslindy, nan
hi bichon

ru + part of a yellow tropical fruit
thx cyber, i have too many of those tropical fruit right now

Nan, I was, sorry,,,,,,, just noticed what your icon was.... very cute
Splenda discussion, I missed it?

A diabetic's best friend

hi all help with U words please
hi all
found un5/12
tough grid for me
ough grid for everyone I think. Hagd :)
UN4/6 = un + country code for "down under"
it's also plural.
I have one GO word left, 5 letters?
never mind
messed around on the keyboard and got it, thought I had tried it before

Fw!!
sa 5/18, pls
nm
Hi everyone! How yall doin?
I am stuck on the MA6 -- not the pet, the other one
nm just monkeyed it
always thought manx was a cat, try it every time
That is a proper noun Meatball. From the Isle of Man.
Hi joy
oh?
Why can't I see the R's??
OTOH there is a U.S. state in the grid that should be a proper noun, but it's acceptable because it's also the name of a type of barbeque or something. Weird.
Because they are weird, carla.
but other proper nouns with non-proper noun meanings are accepted
*gives hokie new glasses*
they are ridiculously hard hokie
do you need a clue?
I need a clue for the MU5
type of sweet wine minus the last letter
ty ch!
thanks ch

it's a musical instrument from the middle east if that helps...

ho6 is something you eat at the ball game
oh for .... lol! Duh. Thanks, joy.

first 4 letters of the man in red's name then vowel + consonant

We all need a little spoon feeding now and then :)
I'm glad you didn't spoon feed me that HO6, though, because I do not like them. 😊
And that's FW for me!

Will just go off and make then eat breakfast and come back to the new grid.
