the one hurshy was cluing about trumpeting sounds
scratch that, the one i was cluing IS a medieval type of trumpet, i just didn't know

same here...
I only have 5 4's left. I hate that.
i should look for my 16 missing fours...
5-11-14-17-2-1 this is why I hate this grid, too many 6s and 7s.
that must be nice - have 18 left
had enough - heading for the list
ooh...found my last 9....
what was it, pen?
an 9/60....
do you want a clue?
is it an against word finally? sure I'll take one

ty pen
tyvm pen
yw....accidentally found it... ;o)
hi all
how are you feeling bichon?
i am having a lot of trouble with the Rs, especially ones from the left column....
hurshy was so close earlier with against Dolly the sheep
I need 7 + 2 R's. they are no joke.
yes, i had tried that earlier, too...
hi all. bichon are you feeling better
my big trouble tiles are D, M, R. as in more than 4 left.
hi peri...
well, found a regular word r4
they are problematic for me, too...
ty marigold. A lot better, but weak
glad to hear you are better, bichon....
glad you are feeling better bichon -- not the kind of holiday memory you want
After 3 years and the vaccinations and boosters, I get it
yep, and at least you didn't feel bad on the trip
In retrospect, I did toard the end
we went to a neighbor's dinner party last night and this morning the host was going to go on a bike ride with us but said he had a bad cough and sore throat, so I guess I have it coming.
I wonder how many of the other passengers did?
how big are those river cruise ships?
Yes, 7th one we went on
which ones bichon -- I only found 4 that didn't duplicate part of one we had been on
found a fabric!
We used Avalon Waterways. Two of the cruises were other than Europe [Asia and South America]
we were invaded by senior citizens with backpacks last week...cruise ship was in the harbor....
carla....what are the stats for your fabric?...
we used viking: Europe, Russia, China
ooh....guessed and found another 8....si 8...
90 left bbl
bye peri...
de5
and I have been trying to make up things for si8, can you make a clue?
oh...have the fabric then....
sure...build on the ambulance noise....
ok, was headed in the right direction at least
got it. was trying to make upper right corner ending work
have you made that upper right corner ending work with other words?
some, hold on and I'll look
can almost make linoleum....
well, I had to look up two that hursh was talking about. there's io6, on6, co6. I think that's all I have
have the CO....will look for the others...ty....
found them....the ON was new for me...
found an R finally - in wrinkle creams, etc
got that one, ty....
still have one 8 left
duh....found the R fruit....still missing one 8 as well....
I did try ra6et in case it wasn't a proper n4 anymore
phantom: reunion....
I did have phantom union but not reunion. have had a lot of -nion phantoms
yes...
stalled at 67....this grid is making me feel dumb...:o(
listing....
45 left here, just went back to connections. will try to finish squaredle and then get busy. might come back to this tonight.
not that I will see any more words then
see you later then...
anyone have the de 8?
yes....want a clue?
yes please
ends with the ending of the word TV.....
thank you
yw...
this grid is slowly killing me
it's awful...
some stupid pt words...
hi again. Can't find some of the words even with the lickety assist
i can relate....down to 27 with a list but have skipped some words...
same here but with 32
still haven't found the right ending for the si 8 that begins with the emergency vehicle sound
it ends in the lower left quarter of the grid...
well when I got through the list, I still have 10 to find...
do you have the un 8?
yes....it's a piece of money that hasn't been made yet....stupid word...
ty pen - that gets me down to 7
how about the ti 6?
don't have that one yet...
ends like the beginning of the duck
ty....got it...
metal + duck beginning
missing three R words after the fruit....are they related?
yes, root word + pt and p
*pl
ty....found them....
down to 4...
ra 6 = resentment
good
missing the mu 6-7 that follow what you shove in the bell of a horn to muffle the sound
it's almost like a revolution at sea...
I'm about to throw the towel in on this one. 170 left...oyvey
it's a killer...
do you have the second ar 6/18?
ty pen
yw...
sorry game stalled - I will look
first mu 5 please?
i am down to 2....re 5/10 (second one) and the ar 6/18 (second one)....
ar 6/18: like the bear but with a different first vowel
oh no that is the 3rd one - don't have the 2nd one either
found the R word...
do you have the 1st mu 5?
I also need the lo 7/40
nm - found
just add the gerund to the previous four...
so, looking for the same ar 6 as you, the first mu 5 and the si 8
the si builds on the ambulance noise...
the MU starst with dirt and ends in a vowel...
yes I just can't find the ending -- it uses the entire 5 letter ambulance noise, doesn't it?
got the mu, ty
yes....and then heads south in the grid....make sure to use the last letter of the noise with the letter in the second column....
got it - ty - sure I typed that before
so we are both looking for the same ar 6 now
is it the one that is like the talk show host AR6 Hall?
no....
comes from the top A....
ar + a connection between bones j****
ty bea
ty....
yw
rehi - darnit, I already have that one
and finally finished - not a fun grid. hagd everyone - off for lunch
thanks for all the help :)
funny i thought of that earlier but ended with the other N and didn't see the T....
i am done as well....a real slog today...
thanks for the help....going back to watch Buffalo roll over the over-rated Dolphins... ;o)
bye all....
I feel like I should shout every time I close out a tile.
this is not an easy grid
It's one of the hardest I have ever done.
So many vowels and so many out of the ordinary words.
phantom snerd
terne
sorry
14 left...
anyone here to give a clue for un8?
Good morning - un8 - Un + loose pocket change + pt
Bless you, liz...
yvw
brutal! I may need to take a day or two of rest...
Really difficult grid
ooh I was missing the right i, and just got all 4 in one shot.
if anyone is still out there, i need a clue please for the last two an words, an 7 and 8
are they the against word first or something else. my last two words in the monster
