Clue for ey7, please?
Vision containers
ty, Molly
No DREY. Sure it was accepted before, squirrels nest.
Granadan . Yes right a Drey .. squirrels nest .
drey has never been accepted. dray is
that ey7 has terrifying implications
it's not a word i like... :o|
hello all...
Aw, it's just a little washing axessory
Or accessory
i can't even put eyedrops in my eyes....they close before I can get anything in....
I start with my eyelid closed, then put the dry on the corner of the eyelid anthem open my eye.....it works for me if I am lying down.
good tip, thanks...
not dry...but drop
i figured that is what you meant...
I am not a good typist as one can see
not a problem...
Here for more. I brought my car for an oil change a mouse nest was found in the engine compartment. No surprise.
heh...i once had a dead mouse in my ventilation system in a new car....hi scrabs....
It happens. I live in the country, if that makes a difference.
I once had a drowned, bloated mouse in my downstair's toilet. Keep the lid down now
i had a field mouse in my toilet as well....
these things happened when i lived up north on a river bank...
Rodents are everywhere.
Whren we lived in NYC we had roaches. Here we have rodents
I have never had roaches, just mice, chipmunks, red squirrels, and bats. Just them.
rather have rodents, i think....bugs creep me out...
i had a bat colony in my attic....very creepy, too.....
Spiders?
especially roaches
my landlord put up a high frequency sound machine and almost all of them left....i figured the few that remained must have been deaf... ;o)
Yes, penquis, that was discovered after a bat flew across my cathedral ceiling living room.
there were literally over a hundred bats up there....it was a very large attic....i refused to go up there....
i discovered them when i started to hear strange sounds...
I didn't look but the guy used the word "colony."
never had one in my living quarters, thank goodness...
I figured it was a bird flying in front of me but I realized the wings were different.
i have had a bat fly by my head in the evening when I was out in a boat with my brother...that kinda creeped me out, too...
And it was hanging upside down from a skylight.
hah...the upside down thing was a give away.... ;o)
What kind of a bat was it?
I am sharp like that.
Hm, I think it was a Little Brown Bat?
When we were in Costa Rica we ment to a bat museum
They are adorable creatures.
i went to an insect museum in Montreal once....swore i would never go to Central America after that....
I don't like the reptile/amphibian house at our zoo.
Drops...it helps if you put them in at the inner corner of the lid
yes, have tried that, too...my eyes just close up and very little goes in....i will try aeb's suggestion next time i need to put drops in....
I put Systane drops in my eyes twice a day for dry eyes
purr
sorry
Woof
no prob....didn't have that one... ;o)
No Hurshy all day? Has anyone organized a search party?
i think she was here this morning....prior to 9:30....
You are correct. My mistake
heading out....bbl to finish....bye all...
We all quietly wait for Pen's return, and wonder why Carla has been lurking all day.
hi all. help with bu6 please
insect sight
Or a big stare
evening all! bottom row done
bottom row finished here too. was not lurking all day, didn't have internet or cell signal.
hi carla...

top e for sure, don't have it yet but I greyed the 2nd row E
nbt + hoet. 38 left, still no 7s

well done
this is a hard grid to me
thanks...
yay pen!
ty...
meanwhile at the Bee all I can see is Philadelphia....
well now that's all I see
lol...
I think I might need a hint on that EL7
el 7 - el + sometime vowel + half of a brass instrument
ah, we've seen that before, thanks
or we've seen the plural more often
yw
thanks liz....couldn't think of how to clue it...
i don't recall seeing it...
I think it helps that a family member plays that instrument!
di6/27 pls
ends with most of a word meaning stupid....
thx
Have that one - but now have the other - an adverb from the word before it! Fireworks.
Have a good day / evening everyone and thanks for the help
oh sorry...the other is just an adverb of the previous word....
well the adv was my last D there, thx
still no 4th row R and only 2 4th row M, oh, and no 3rd row U and only 1 G. have I mentioned this grid is hard?
hi all, gonna plop in
hey gwen
hi gwen....
all the center U words are up words
ok, that narrows it down, thx
upmom - you know the type
yup...
two are fours and two are dumb (related).....
nbt woot
the dumb ones each related to a 4 or to only one of the 4s?
if your up4 was wet, you might want to up5 it, and then it would be up7
found 2 g's I should've seen
thanks dan, those are dumb
how about those 2 R's?
nm
sorry....gotta go....bye all....
I dont get the up clues at all…………hmmmm
bye pen
hi
Are those actual words wtih up?????? Please send help
Hi
I have a 5/7 up combo
a 4 as well
Moo please send me a clue for it. Ty. I have a up 4 that i have no idea what it is or means.
Do the up words have double cons?
the other two I have refer to the dewaterfication process :)
and no
Ouch. I would not know anythiung about dewaterfication
ty, moolingwa, nbs at last
my up 4 is a milky sap. So guess i am without any of the words that relate.
KFC and McDonald's merged and now you can order a McLeg
Cute
Ok back to the up wrods. Dues the up 7 have a word that is the last 5 of the word? And is there double cons?
well the up4 I have is apparently a hair style
no double consonant
the 7 shares 4 letters with the 5
up5 is up + opposite of wet. then past tense
Ok ty
Ty. Got the 5 and the 7 from that clue. Ty.
didn't have the other one, so thanks
Still missing bottom corner A words and the i words for first column i.
I go away for a few minutes and miss moo and mkg entering
hence the "dewaterfication" clue -- took me a second
hey hoke, happy Saturday
Got the id. Ty
Ty to all cluers.
I try my best to clue without being obvious :)
i have two from bottom A: ar5, knights wear it for protection, and ar6, the place where they make the ar5
moo's a very subtle cluer
happy saturday to you too
perhaps the knights "love" their ar5 ;)
I do try
still need 1 lower M and 1 G for HOET
I need 1 P
again, took me a second
bottom row done, woot
HOET
subtle yw Gwen :)
me too gwen
germory - a little kid
yes, and me too right now...got the plague again
oh no, bienvenido a miami
two plane flights, two plagues...getting to the point I'd rather not fly anywhere
I wondered why you were here on a Sat night
had it all week, not quite as bad today
I have not had a lot of playing time this week
i need two Gs for hoet, argggggggggggh
glad today is somewhat better
haven't played much either...
and thnx
holy crap moo!!
yeah, it's kinda frustrating
masked up and everything at the airport and on the plane
But there was this woman coughing up a lung at one of the beaches I went last week, and I wonder
mr. homie had it right after you the last time I think. he thinks he's still good for a while. I told him not!
doctor said 3 months or thereabouts, but there's new variants
always
Could also be flu, haven't had a fever
masking is great but also, never touch your mucous membranes (at least until you wash your hands)
39 left here and still no HOET. not faring much better at the bee.
Yeah, brought sanitizer as well Gwen...but missed something somewhere obviously and it was in Miami which has a lot of visitors from all over
28 left here
4OFOET
we went tent camping last night and it started raining at 2am and our tent started leaking, so we came home today.
one word away from hoet -- squinting at that letter G
yeah, leaky tents are no fun
awwwww, sorry hokie
have a couple of odd g's so far...2 remaining
hoet at last, 39 to go
yeah, still need a G and an M
have 4 M's
did almost get swum into by a manatee tho
well I've tried a lot of odd g's
and also got to hang out with lemurs for about 20 minutes, which was really cool
9-7-5-2
maybe you got a lemur disease
14-17-7-1
well I did start feeling off immediately after, which seems too soon :)
also hung out with a couple of young kangaroos there
in miami?
yeah
maybe roo flu then
kanga flu
ðŸ˜
20 to go
36
7-6-5-2
just accidently clicked your profile and read the cat's thought - is that supposed to be me? 🤣
no idea :)
well, I never know what day it is
just found 6 t's
and 2 more, just one T now. 29 total. 8-14-6-1
I decided to change it up
well, there's an odd G past tense
I have all my T's
prob something stupid on my T
yeah, maybe even "presidential"
oh, you said one T
perhaps helen might know
nope
or the one where you just change one letter from Helen's place
I have 2 where you change one letter, depends on which letter.
one where you stepped and one 3 pointer
was thinking the latter
the alternate spelling one, the last t
32 to go, i have had enough, bye all
so, the campground we were at is in nat'l forest and has no cell signal, yet last night in the middle of the night I had LTE and was able to play this on my phone. (I've heard of this, something about network traffic). Anyhoo, can't rem. what I typed at 3am.
good night, gwen!
night gwen
19 left here
I actually have that UK word today!
woot
how about the receiver of the ty3?
looks like it's actually a fish, but yes
oh, perhaps you're missing the second t...it's a common word, but easy to miss
and the one who does
is it an anagram of the first t?
no
hmm, the first 2 I have are anagrams.
:)
I just need to straighten up some things
1st col gray!
yes, clean up those t's
still need two D's
still need 5 on the lower D
should I give you a flood of clues?
need 2 on that one too
no, that's okay...I'm sure you don't want to relive your night
there's a weird 6 I picked up from the chat - of course it's scottish
of course
good point, but that was my subtle clue or your response was too subtle for me
oh, I already had it :)
the first subtle one :)
I'm guessing you need the scottish one
och aye
found one
wasn't scottish tho
was it divine?
holy crap, you got it!
2OFOET
still no HOET
I am mystified by that M
need 2 more there
5-12-6-1
just made up a set of M's, so HOET!
okay, completed the m with a couple of made up words
heh
ha
5-4-4-2
3 or less on each
no, I lied. still need 4 lower P
still 2 or less
ok, now 3 or less
L C B E U RRR GGG P MM DDD PPP S
D E L C B M R GG DD PP SS
think I will make some popcorn and see if that helps
I'm sure you'll be finished when I get done popping
and if it doesn't, it'll still be delicious
I am somewhat handicapped by wooden head syndrome
second row grey
I'll entertain any guesses for the 2nd row E and U
bird's nest and stress effect
ok, got the U, thx
and the E, always miss that
2nd row gray!
you need an eagle's eye to find it
apparently don't have one
at least you didn't stress about it ;)
true
and yes, I know that's in the grid
never crossed my mind to be honest
winston is very excited about this popcorn
heh
not really finding anything at this point
still have 5 4s, probably should try to find those
I found a D, but still 18
14 here
I also have 5 4's
found my last :
er L
oh yeah?
yeah
found a d
found a p
what was your L?
plural of a 3
oh, I think I have that
there's another 4 that's often easy to miss
btw, I think the other day you posted something about being surprised lucifer wasn't a proper noun?
yes...
they were a nickname for matches amongst soldiers around the first world war if I recall correctly
there was a song from that time called "A long way to Tipperary" that mentions it
I didn't know you fought in the first world war. you're old.
probably too old to recall correctly
really ancient
interesting though
I helped build the pyramids
and I saw stonehenge just after they finished it
that is pretty ancient
yeah...I look young for my age
did you ever play that timeline game? I always forget about it and then I can't remember it. maybe I can find by googling.
1.22 WPT
2-3-4-2
yeah I did
can't remember the name either
decided to list. the missing B is NOT bugdom, though it should be.
didn't try that nope :)
I found it, it's like wikitrivia. tomjwatson. com
now you got me playing it
my L was a one who does
it's very addictive
equaled my best of 11
and two of my fails were ones I almost went one over which was the right answer
my best is 16, but I usually get around 5
yeah, I just got two 5s in a row
I'm really struggling lately with the bee
don't even have the pangram today
was my last word to hit genius
got 11 again
did you finish the g here?
no
ok, not seeing my 2 with the list but I'll just look them up
oops, broke it :)
broke what?
wikitrivia
it's okay, just reloaded it and started again
ah
ok, should have had 2 of these p's
can't get the s either. will play a couple of rounds of the wikitrivia and see if that helps.
Just got 14
and 4 ancient greek things,,,got three of them right, but got a bit arbitrary at the end
didn't get Plato's birthdate in the right order
11 - 2 of my misses were like 50 years apart
just missed one by 6 years
No mention of lucifers in It's A long Way To Tipparery, but there is in Pack Up Your Troubles In Your Old Kit Bag
that old classic
still 11 to go
still those 2 g's
94 to go here
2 Gs and 2 S's
hey HH
hi :)
HH!
carla
not finding this a very fun grid at all
hmm, found one of the g's finally by looking it up
pretty ugly one
me either, HH
so my last word is aussie according to the flippers
struth mate?
grayed the bottom row!
guessed the 3rd letter and was able to find it on best word list
ah, found a g
was it aussie?
not that I'm aware of
was a 5
then you may not have it so I won't say
is the i word obvious? and the left hand R?
it took me a long time, so not really obvious for either. id4 and ro4/5
both took me a really long time
ty carla.
59 to go.
well, think I'll head out...good to seeya hoke, sorry about your water adventure
bye mool
bye moo, hope you are feeling better soon
50. I think that's enough for me.
good night!
