q7/48
Morning all I t6/21 and w5/18 away my time, and s6/30 parts of the puzzle but wondered if this was the w5/16 one yet? LOL
FMitch - well done. It helped me get a couple there
lol
Nice s9/36, FMitch! May I q5/18 you?
:) couldn't resist (as if I hve nothing better to do at 7am on a Sunday morning).
LOL hazzardous
only if you y5/18 at the same time
Mustn't, FMitch - it's 2 am here - my s4/5 would wake the rest of the household (neighbourhood?) which would r4/4 them!
LOL
Aww, c'mon Hazzardous, be w4/8 and crazy
OK I y5/18! I%u2019ve been t4/5!
I'd rather remain s6/21
sandbox74 - I hope it's one and not the other s6/21 ;o)
Umm, which s6/21, Sandbox? There are a couple that I kind of doubt you'd rather be! :)
Hmmm, I seem to have started something here!!! Catch up with you later have got to go and do some work :)
the one that isn't in the past hehe
hi sandbox
Later, FMitch. I should go and get some sleep!
go get some zzzzzzz it will still be here later :)
i8/60 - proud of that one myself! ;o)
good evening cat
hugabugs you are awesome..... I can hardly wait for the clue
LOL... Blaze, Is that a hint?
I do believe you are trying to I8/60 the word from me! ;o)
You bet ... rigth down to my last Z
i8/60 - To win over by coaxing, flattery, or artful talk.
oh great one I am !! I am still working with the s9/96 "the act of speaking to oneself" I can not find the letters for sputtering at all
You might find a few of those s9's in Shakespeare's plays
somethings wrong and I don't know how to fix it. every word I type is listed twice, so my score is double for every entry ?????
REFRESH your screen
WOW I wonder if that would work better when trying to get the kids to wash the dishes ??
I have a w6/39, but can't find a w6/30. Any hints?
it didn't work, I'm still getting double entries. I even closed and went off line and then came back on, but the double entries were still listed
Hugabugs - w6/30 - a little rug? :)
sorry no W 6 for me yet another ring around the puzzle tree for me
Hazzardous - great clue! got it, Thanks! :o)
Canadian wit - lol! (I'm from Ottawa)
does that w 6/39 have the same root as w6/30 ??? if not what is second letter (I8/60)
I'm from Winnipeg
I'm from the suburbs of Vancouver
wi6/39 - easily managed. (usually a sword)
Blaze - wi6/30 and wi6/39 are unrelated. Although I suppose wi6/30 could sometimes be un-wi6/39 !
tanks
r7/40
g'nite... thx for all the great clues :)
It's now after 3am here - I said I was going to bed an hour ago. My eyes are drooping and I'm starting to see the Babble board on the backs of my eyelids. So I mean it...no more words...really... I'm on my way....'nite 'nite!
Nite Hazzardous
Well, I'm off to bed too. Nite All
have a great sleep
blaze my daughter's on honeymoon there and my cousin lives there.my daughter's gone on a cruise up to seward.what a beautiful part of the world

thnx sprite, any chance of a second letter?
idiot
O5/14 and O4/4. Think it is a bit early for second letters, esp. for 4-words... don't want to spoil the fun for others.
Guess you miss the rocklike.
Got it -- thanks much sprite!
Always the hardest ones, when they are so close to another word you were proud to find :D
Ha, so very true, sprite -- I should know better than to risk Babble pride by now!
Just glad I am not the only one suffering that particular vice, lol.

Lottijw you`re getting paranoid!
I know do you think they are trying to tell us something Lotti?? Pass me another Mars Bar lol
With a rear like mine i`ve every right to be paranoid!
Being paranoid is no guarantee they are NOT after you.
You make me laugh Sprite!!! Nuff funny LOL
s7/40
ok - think i have got all the easy ones... now for some thinking! lol
Becky,s7 you have money
asl evry 1
wat
i have money
That is the clue.what you are if you have money.
i dno
ow olds evry 1 ere
Can`t have twiglet :( I`m sad now
helo how old u all ere???
I'm guessing older than you Becky lol.. i'm 24, nearly 25.
Seems like we`re all older than you
ok how old evry 1 els den
Can you have them lottijw ??Remember your "favourite" word!!!!
i no i fink u al r
evry 1 ges how old u fink i am wi way i act lmao
about 12
rli :(
I did think about that as i was typing Macadam! Doesn`t help the fact that i`ve just troffed huge bag of cheesy balls!!!!!!!
im nt 12 av a nuva ges
Well yeah about that, it's your typing skills and the things you're coming out with that make me think it.. sorry.
fat bastard
wt ya mean mi typin skills i jst usin txt language cos it quika n ppl my age can understand me
Maybe but a lot of us here are older than you as we have already established and txt speak isn't really how people would normally communicate on here.. or many other places come to think of it. :)
you are 14? People in here aren't your age so text talk isn't appropriate, me thinks
Becky, I'm new to this game but one thing I've found is that we don't communicate like we're usinga mobile phone
erm yer but its so much quika n at scool i write in full enuf so i cba wi it all tym so i fink wel i mite as wel shorten mi txt so i cn sey a lot more in a shirta amount of tym
you won't last long here with language like that Becky
and this seems to be a friendly community so swearing perhaps isn't a good way to attract attention, as I imagine you will probably be ignored
yes i am 14
i didnt swear
wen did i swear
so you consider your 7.:30 comment to be an acceptable way to converse?
dnt ignore me plz
Sorry becky, i really can't be bothered to try and decipher what you mean anymore. It may be easier for you, but its hard work to read.
wtf converse mean
Becky it's a long time since I was 14 (no mobiles then either). It's great you are trying but one thing you should keep in mind is to talk the language of the rest of the "community" -then you'll be taken more seriously
Dr God please get rid of this imbecile
Coverse.. conversation, a way of communicating.. i really can't believe you didn't know that.
converse = to engage in a spoken exchange. Anyway I am here to play, so back to the puzzle for me
Hi all, don't you think the only way to treat becky is to ignore her she is a waste of time really
ok then i will type in full and then maybe you all can understand me better, and i will not swear because it is nt necessary and i am extremely sorry if i have affended anybody but i am really not a horrible person and although i seem very thick on here i am really not and i am actually quite clever. So i am sorry again for swearing and i will not any longer.
DR GOD please don`t rest on the 7th day
Becky - ok, but it is actually offend.. just in case it ever comes up in a puzzle and you don't realise lol.
I can see your point of view mu but perhaps Becky is not used to this type of community, so if we explain then she is informed, what she does with that information is up to her.
I am not thick i have just said that but i really didn't know what it mean i coulf of worked it out but i thought it would be easier just to ask and it has actually really hurt me that u are calling me things like an imbecile and telling evryone to ignore me when non of you know me because im sure if you did you woiuldnt think of me in sure a terrible way
ok then offend i apologise
lets just wipe the slate clean and move on, if you need help with the puzzle just ask for help Becky
It must be Sunday night fever - got 3 g4/5 - can anyone give me the 2nd letter of the 4th, i've got ge4 5 gi4 5 gi4 5
any im off now to lay on my bed and cry
moozey you are right of course and perhaps now she will get on with the game and let everyone else do the same. I just got sidetracked with her chat and as it's a long time since I had young ones lost patience
i've got gi4 x 5
tks Uneaixoise - found it
Another gi4/5
see why are nearly all of you ignoring me lottijw sound like a freak who needs get a life n stop saying evil things when they aren't necessary
Becky, just chill out and carry on with the puzzle.. nobody hates you on here, if you type so we can all understand we will all help you but i don't think anyone is really here for mass conversations.. at least not until they have all the words anyway lol. :-)
we are not ignoring you Becky, we are here to play a game. If you need to go and cry on your bed then that is what you have to do. You offended people but are not happy when they offend you. Its a cruel world
i am sory but beacuse i am younger than you all you are all treating me like im about 5 year old n making out that im useless and thick and cant doi anything right just because i ask for help with the game and because i didnt know what 1 word ment !!
Some people play games in order to challenge themselves. Others play games as a means of social interaction. Some of each group have trouble understanding others in the other group.
this is all seeming a bit harsh. to change the subject, does anyone have a list of the e words please?
we all have problems with the puzzle, if it wasn't challenging there would be no point in playing. If you are struggling then ask for help but be specific eg need help on ei7/40 (which for the record I could do with help on) just saying I need help doesn't help us to help you because where do we begin as we have no idea what words you currently have. Confused you will be :o)
e4/5 , e5/12 x2 , e7/40 , e5/16 , e6/18 , e6/21.
Becky - if you want people to think well of you, you could think about changing your behaviour. zoom - the e's ed 5 12 ed 4 5 ei 7 40 el 5 12 el 6 21 en 5 16 et 6 18 Becky - if you're still there - may be you could give these a go :)
Great bio Sherb.
thnx macadam and sherb!
thanks macadam - I really can't remember what I did with my time before Babble lol
I'm thinking sherb you had a life because if you are anything like me Babble seems to have taken over
Hi guys! Just logged on and been checking out the messages- looks like someone threw their toys a bit!
I usually work long hours, but it's quieter over the summer, and I've had some time off over the last few weeks. Back to work tomorrow, so Babble limited to evenings and weekends :(
i want to type in 'olive'... lol
cathy - I know what you mean, I want to type in identity (would be 60 points!) :)
Cathy,If it makes you feel better why not give it a whirl,
LOL
sherb & cathy, know what you mean & once you've 'seen' them, it's hard to get them out of your head.
why whats wrong with my behaviour ive apologised loads for all of that
Has anyone got a clue for ei 7/40 please?
it would only make me feel better NOT to get that red 'oops' bar after I typed it!!! lol.... that can be crushing!!
Becky.. let it go, chill out. :-)
I try them anyways. sometimes there's an alternate path I didn't see before (though I don't know if alternate is the right word, since the first path wasn't actually a path)
I'm confused by this stats grid... I just inputted a word for imbecile from the bottom row appropriate letter ... it only has one possible word from it... I can't see why it hasn't blanked it as I can't build the word anywhere else!!! unless I missed something of course ?!
Claire - has the id4/5 in it no def given, but will look it up elsewhere :)
becky, nothing is wrong. everyone has moved on.
and excuse me not too long ago you were having a go at me for shorteneing my words and now everyone is saying 'LOL' which is an abbreviation of 'laugh out loud' and when i was shortening my words e.g. y-why and you- u i was been ignored and called an imbocile!!
claire dc, can't offer a clue for the ei7 - i'd not heard the word before but found it using the a2z wordfinder
ginger- the imbecile can be made in two ways, one has an extension
oh thanks trif... any clue for the word that DOES belong there then???
Thanks sherb and zoom.. i'll have a look into it more now. :-)
becky... you made your point... how about just chilling out and playing? it'll be easier!
duh sorry trif... just read your post properley .. found it ;)
o yes and i was considered as a waste of time by 'mu'
yes well i am right you areonly been like this with me because i am younger than you all
BECKY, JUST LET IT DROP.. FOR GODS SAKE!! It's like listening to a stuck record. Everyone has moved on, you should too.
has anyone posted a clue for the 8 letter... was that So?? if so is there a clue please?
you were all my age once you no how would you like it if you had been treated like i have and i am sure when i get to all your ages i will not b cruel to mi younger generation as you are all being to me !!
Becky, NOW you are a waste of time. kthxbye
yes well i want to get my point across
ginger - i8 - there was a couple of clues relly early on.
hmm... i wonder if we can send a message when someone is being a nuisance? becky... if you want to play, please play... let's move on, for goodness sake.
I really don't think anyone is bothered about your point anymore becky so either let it drop or shut up altogether as you're making the more important posts drop further down.
I have seen 3 kids past your age Becky and I have 3 more.... I would be supervising them on the net and would be horrified if they behaved as you are doing. You are inviting negative attention.
GingerUK - in8/60 to win over by coaxing, flattery or artful talk. Maybe Becky could give this a go :)
you want to get a point across, even though you are totally unwilling to hear a point? Nobody cares about your age. it's your behavior.
Sherb I doubt it!!
thanks Sherb ;)
LOL
I wish I'd stop double posting
mrk - it doesn't show on the main screen just at your end only
mrk you may see double posts your end but I am not seeing them this end
mrk- try refreshing as you are only showing up more than once on your own screen :)
That's good. thanks guys.
omg y wud u b supervisinthem on the net giv em sum space and i dont c wat is wrong with my behavior i am nt hurting any 1
lol having said that Moosey's posting is showing twice!!!!
yes supervision... ie knowing what they are up to not sitting alongside and holding hands!!!
looking at the timings it seems to happen when several of us post at the same time
Dr God.. please can there be an ignore button added, i think it would be invaluble. :-) I got the 8 word now too thanks for the clue.
ClaireDC - I am so with you on that
Here here
Refreshing may fix the double posting problem
hahaha ok im rolin on floor laughin ive ad evuf of trying to say sorry wen u cba 2 listen 2 me so i bludi wont both ano more ill jst b wat im usually lyk.....me
I wish that refreshing would fix the becky problem too haha.
Just guessing here, but I think we're being trolled by an adult with an extremely odd sense of humor. The act's just a bit too perfect. Let's ignore it and pray it either ceases or that Dr. God arrives on a white horse soon.
I can't find the i8, even though I've found 3 different ways to make the smaller version
another way for now is not to interact or respond at all
Becky.. please shut up, for the love of god. You really do show your age, you said sorry and that's fine but you wouldn't let it drop and that is why you became even more annoying. Play the game and hush up. :-)
was thinking the same mellisamay, you posted it better than I could have too!
Thank you FMitch
i dunt believe in god sori
mrk,start at the boyyom right and go up 3 i8/60
ok then hunni ill hush up lmao

lottijw Just got one but its not working yet.
wait, the smaller version means imbecile, right? the three i5s i've found that means that don't start on the bottom right.
mrk - you're on the wrong track, it's not related to any other words :(
Cali - have you found the so9 one?
Sorry to ask for information that has only recently been posted but someone posted a website a short while ago that they use for finding words. Would you please be able to repeat this for me as I can't seem to find the message again in all Becky's inane ramblings. Thanks for your help.
oh, thanks sherb
Yep, found that one. Looking for the in one now....
a2zwordfinder.com
www.a2zwordfinder.com
Cali - can I meet you in the other place cos I need help but I don't want to spoil it for anyone else asking for any further clues?
Thanks Moozey and Sherb......much appreciated B-)
ok going there now
about to break off for a (late) lunch...been saying that for 2 hours... personally, I've enjoyed Becky's presence...it's not often I spend time with teenagers, and I guess I wouldn't be saying this if I did! :D
have y5 x 2 and y6--what am i missing? thanks
sherb, got the ei 7 one now so thanks for that. see you later.
y5x3 and thanks Cali I have finally found the S9/96 hooray
Une - y's are as follows:
y5/18x3 y6/30
great have you found the in8?
yes,I can't believe I found it though
I don't have it yet
if you use an online thesauraus and look up 'lure' you'll find it
Thank you I'll do that...
I found it!!! Thank you Moozey
the clue most use is to coax flatter but I really struggled with that one to be honest. Another clue is to lure by false representations or other deceit
you are welcome
are you there snowyowl
thanks for the i8 clue - silly question but can't see the i4/4. What's the 2nd letter?
in4/4
I have ei7, so7 and qu7... what am I missing please?
r7/40 ginger
An r7- looking for it myself!
and its a really obsure word - or at least I thought so when I finally found it.
ri7 - Anj posted a good clue I think ... sculpture consisting of shapes carved on a surface so as to stand out from the surrounding background, check google out and it is the fifth site down
Can you give us the second letter, Fmitch?
it starts from the 1st r on the grid 2nd letter is i
got it now... thanks for the clue!!!
Got it! Thanks everyone :)
don't yo ulove it when you cross off one of those real doozies!
Fmitch- ooooh yeah! :)
...yes, but sometimes the chase is better than the catch ;) Afternoon everyone :)
Hi Anj! :)
Hi Anj - good afternoon
CathB Here I am! Family back safe & sound & very tanned,have just gone home so Ishall make a start.Speak to you later.xx
afternoon Anj
...i'm overwhelmed :')
afternoon Anj
Stop it - you're making me all gooey :) Time for a coffee'n'biccy. Anyone else?? I've got all the biggies if anyone needs a hand
overwhelmed with the puzzle Anj?
lottijw,add an s to your broad yorkshire n word.
hey anj, good to see you. since you're offering, there's an el6 to do with removing or carrying away to a distance. think someone's removed my grey cells cos i can't seeit, would you have a simpler clue?
Missing an O, can anyone see which one it is?? O5/12 O4/4 O5/12 O5/12 O4/8 O5/14 O5/10 O4/4 O5/10 Ov4/7 O5/16 O4/7
Cheers Macadam done that.x
Sorry zoom, I have th e7 but not the e6. I saw the clue for that earlier but my brain went off on another tangent...
Moozey, it's an or4/4. Nice skirt btw lol
i have the e7 too, not to worry, we may just get a flash of inspiration later!
e6,to carry away to a distance.
Coooo it's an el6/21 - think of the good guys from HG Wells Time Machine and add a grunt :)
yeah, that 'carry away to a distance' is the bit i need simplifying macadam! is it possible?
Thanx Anj for the or4/4
Good clue Anj.el is a strange word.
n/ws Trif - it is a bit of a leftover lol
Thanks Anj, that's the O's done and dusted
Anj - going back to yr 9.05 posting - very true lol
harumph! won't take "olent" meaning fragrant
Anj - my icon is known as Banana Milkshake, the gif usually moves but not in here it seems
yeah, Dr. God turned off animation--guess it was adding to load time
Yeah dr god banned animated gifs it says in his logs.
FMitch, that only lasts until the chase becomes frustrating of course lol Moozey, Dr G has put the kybosh on animated gifs
oopps I didn't realise, I best speak to Dr G and see if he wants me to remove this one
Moozey- No worries. The system strips any animation out automatically.
cool, saves me from looking for another image :o)
Dr G.. any chance of an ignore feature? :-)
lol Anj
Claire DC- I've added it to my list after seeing the chat log this morning. ;)
Fantastic, it would have been handy to have back then ;-) thanks :-)
Thanks Dr God. I always knew you were all-seeing! :)
"My verses don't screw classically, they babble commonly and bluster far too nobly. In winter their lips leap." (Hugo Claus) I need a leaping lips icon!
Just found an le6/21 if anyone is looking. 'We are l..... for we are many' Mark 5:9
Anj- are you always like this on a Sunday? :)
are you tinkering Dr_God, my system has suddenly slowed right down.... I also notice a nice friendly icon on the http!
your eyeballs must have crossed finding THAT one! :)
No Lo, i'm like it all the time. Weekdays I try to keep it Anj Lite...but today it's Anj Pro rofl :)
anj thanks for le6/21 x
Good Day/Evening all,anyone got a break down of todays grid.
GingerUK- No tinkering at the moment. Friendly icon?
I've got a sctabble B in my URL but that's been there a while :)
Here you go dazza: --- Word Sizes --- 4 - 98 5 - 67 6 - 28 7 - 4 8 - 1 9 - 1 --- 199 Words Total --- --- 1st Letter Count --- D - 19 E - 7 G - 11 I - 7 L - 17 N - 10 O - 13 Q - 4 R - 12 S - 35 T - 31 V - 10 W - 19 Y - 4
Friendly URL A scrabble 'B' tile... and I am having some trouble typing in the text box too!
Ahhh... the "favicon." That should have been there the whole time (even on the beta site.) Not sure why it would have just popped up.
Anjpro- look forward to being fully entertained then :)
Never noticed it before :-O
GingerUK- You might just have a gremlin. Quit your browser and load it back up.
Customer service is my speciality :)
FMitch: FYI re "y5/18x3 y6/30" I've got 2 x y5/18
do you want some clues?
favicon - within the URL cool, can't see it but it sounds cool :o)
that's better!
although the cute little icon has gone again :-(
no, thanks--just mentioning that instead of 3 x y6, there are 2 of each
Any clues for the ys. I have one y5/18 and have monkey typed til my fingers are dizzy.
must be going crossed eyed :(
thing you might do in the Alps, vocal. Plus plural
The other y5/18 is the sameas the other but spelt differently
Just got that one right after I asked for hints.
I got 3 of y5/18 and only 1 y6/30 and my little stats bar got gray so ...
haha...anyone know any Kevun B Wilson? The Ballad of Ollie & Olga might get you a couple of Ys lol
good to know! i just knew that the "3 x y6" was wrong--thanks
Anj- a party's not a party 'til the rellies have arrived!
i've got the two tonsil teasers but not the third
oops--make that THREE tonsil teasers
You better STOP then
Anyone have a breakdown on the i's please
...now I can't stop humming Living Next Door to Alan lol
Id5/12 Id6/21 Id/4/5 id4/5 In5/10 In4/4 In8/60

morning form arkansas
Hello, Arkansas. I'm an expat Arkie myself.
Jen- lol! Wish I knew how to do the same...... :)

Ginger - Kiss me Hardy!
Thanx sherb :-)
it's a wrestling hold :)
Hey Sherb.... which borough are you in?
Lo, interesting mental picture forming here lol
Mmmmmm, the minute I posted that I knew it was a mistake....... :)
Ginger - I'm in Camden, just north of Primrose Hill (not very primrosy round here, though...) :)
I'm in Sutton
I'm in Carshalton but work on the Southbank
moozey, I got a lo 4/7 that comes after the 5/18 and sounds like a mortgage
ah, the north/south divide...I've heard of Sutton, but never been there, lol actually, I'm a Middlesbrough lass originally, so only masquerading as a southerner :)
It's OK LO, my imagination is in its cage. The mental picture was just at odds with your icon lol.
and I'm a Yorkshire lass! My dad is from Middlesborough, he was brought up where the old Ayresome Park football stadium was!
got that one trif
My Grandpa worked at the steel mills outside of Redcar right through the war
amazing...I was born a few hundred yards from there, and still have family in Middlesbrough...they're planning to bulldoze a large part of that area for development, maybe a good thing, but sad nevertheless...
Pleased to meet a fellow Arkie. I'm retiring soon and I want to go home......
Redcar! ah, memories of summers on the beach, paddling and admiring the views of the steel works... lol seriously, it's a much underrated area, a real hidden gem...let's keep it that way :)
It's okay Anj, a free imagination is always a good thing! Like today's icon, btw :)
Moozey, Trif, i've got an additional le4/7, lo4/5 and lo5/12 (although i'm having doubts about the lo4.5 - i've got two but I still need one L)
lol Sherb. back to the puzzle?
FMitch - no, actually, still supposed to be having lunch...I just thought I'd have a 'quick' look at the puzzle...! where are you?
Thanx Lo. I'm going to see them again in October :)
Sherb you should know that one look and you are hooked! Im in Berkshire
Are there 5 x li4/5 and 2 x li4/4?
Lo, i've only found 2 of each and i've only 1 L to go. Or should that be go to L lol ?
lola - 5 li's total...2 4/5's and 3 4/4's :)
Oh dear...my missing L was de big puddytat :( Excuse me while I just sob gently in the corner for a mo...
Thanks guys! Anj- overlooked that one too :(
Still missing 2 L's. Are there 2 x lo4/5 and 2 x lo5/12?
lo4/4 x 2, lo4/5 x 2, lo4/7 x 2, lo5/12 x 2, lo5 18 :)
lola - the lo's :) lo 4 5 lo 5 12 lo 4 5 lo 5 12 lo 4 4 lo 4 4 lo 4 7 lo 5 18 lo 4 7
Don't worry, just found them *smacks forehead* (again!)
Thanks sherb! Guess if you irritate someone enough they take pity on you :)
Thanks Anj. Sorry, didn't see your post below sherb's :(
Lo, I was more thinking 'say"'ouch!" before I have to hurt you' kinda thing lol
lola - I just didn't trust myself to work out what was what...Babble making me crosseyed... x-)

Did anyone see Kingdom of Heaven? I was quietly impressed...
Hello all! :) just logged myself on... but finding no joy with the 8- or 9-letter words... any clues would be v much appreciated ta!!
Haven't seen that yet but thought it might be interesting. Did the elf get to use his bow again? Hahaha!
No, just waved his sword and looked broody...
Aaah, standard action hero stuff then.
Good morning al -- It really hit me today as I looked at all the UK flags this time of day; the area of total destruction from Katrina on our Gulf coast is about the same sq. miles as the UK --- wiped out --- oh my ..
usually have to wait for films to come out on video, or even tv, these days...tend to fall asleep in the cinema...it's either the long hours I work, or age... :D
Also, my son is heading up to Mobile Alabama and Hattisburg, Mississippi, this week for at least two weeks with his boss and co-worker to start some of the cleanup in a church and two schools ....
I'm missing a Q and a Y: qu5/18 x 2, qu7/48 and yo5/18 x 2, yo6/30. Please will someone put me out of my misery!
please help with the 8 and 9! also only have 1 7-letter word :'(
lola theres a q4/9
tedybeth - there's been a lot of coverage here of the devastation...hard to comprehend the scale of it... good luck and best wishes to your son :)
I'm missing an S & a T and they're either a 5 or a 6 :( Lo, the Q4/9 sounds like a square, the y5/18 is a different spelling of alpine al fresco karaoke :)
lola - there's a yi 5/18 too
S9 one person spouting on stage i8
Tedybeth, agree it's scary. Our definition of local means within a 5 mile radiius. You can add one or two zeros to that definition stateside and it's still not easy to comprehend.
Thanks guys, got them both :)
Damn! Sorry Lo, mis-read your post. It's the yi5 meaning to surrender... Moment of myopia there :(
can't get i8 or s9 :( i'm terrible at this! any more clues?
Just-jo i8 to persuade
just-jo - so9 is someone speaking 'sol'o and it uses the qu too :)
just-jo shakespeare. as in one person talking?
Yes, the scope of destruction is almost more than the mind can take in - that's why it helps me to have a comparison for it! Wasn't ever to good at solid geometry!!! I always thought we'd see mass destruction in California from an earthquake --- but this seems even worse than I would have imagined from that. Now it's time to move forward - and pray for mercy!!
mu thanks for that clue!!!
No prob Anj :) How about some help with my last E to make up for it? ed5/12 ed4/5 ei7/40 el5/12 el6/21 en5/16.
alimitch glad it helped
lo et6/18 - last one I found. A 6-pointed star who's rays are wavy. Sounds like a perfume word word as well ;)
haylo evrybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ta Anj, will work on that :)
...or Place de l'Et.... in Paris...
Any help with the s5 & s6s?? I have: sl5/12 x 2 so5/10 so5/12 x 4 so5/16 st5/10 st5/16 x 2 and so6/21 x 2 so6/30 st6/18 st6/21 x 3 st6/27 x 2 Brain is currently whimpering in the corner :'(

when i asked for clues no one would help me
maybe you need to be more specific? i'm stuck on two 7-letter words. ask for clues like that and perhaps people will help you then becky
Becky, usually if someone wants a clue, they will ask for a specific letter, not just a general "help".
I'm too busy trying to do it myself to give any clues!
just-jo - e17/40, no def available, but has an id4/5 in it...and ri7/40, sounds Italian, architectural term :)
how do u no how many of each lettered word u need and how many letters
and check the chat log ;)
clues for the e7 and r7 would be very much appreciated! thanks guys! :)
Becky - if you click 'Show all Messages', you'll see the full chat log. The list showing the number of words is usually posted early in the day. Good luck. :)
sherb, is that the 14/5 that means lazy? or the other one?
i mean the i4/5 sorry!
just-jo - the other one...
Becky - you kow why you are not getting help and yes there are some of us still her from earlier in the day so yes we remember th eain you were then!
wel how do the people know who have typed them in the chat log
l have the qu7, so7 and ei7 but not the ri7 do you need those?
we have programmes to make the stats
How many 'qu' qords are they then?
have a look in the chat log, you'll find the stats
Guys - dont waste yr time responding to Becky - it will just wind you up.
WEL HOW MANY HAVE U FOUND
the ri7 means: sculpture consisting of shapes carved on a surface so as to stand out from the surrounding background
ahh its fun baiting these people :P
Atalante - your icon looks how I feel! :D
all the Qus thank you. how about you?
SHUT UP FMITCH I DIDNT ASK U SO KEEP OUT OF IT

texting is for dummies
Hi Becky, I see you're back! Have you got many words yet? There aren't too many in txt speak though ;)
i use text language on text messages, but not on other methods of communication
u jst type sad!!!
as I said before guys - igonre the "fly" and enjoy the usual chat and the puzzel - internaction will only lead to more usless wiffle.
yer i can spel ya no jst cos i type in txt dunt mean im thick im a brunette nt blonde ;)
fmitch ur da biggest geek ive herd on ere get a life
i'm a brunette too. but i know many a clever blonde.
FMitch - good advice, I know, but it's hard to resist... :D
i know what you mean sherb ;) good fun!
I agree with mitch I could use help on no6/27, please
Becky, I take offence at your language. There is absolutely no need for swearing or abusive comments in this game . I realise that you are only 14 but immaturity is no excuse for your behaviour today. You were on earlier and being nasty to people and seem to be determined to carry on in the same vein tonight. People come here to play a word game and enjoy themselves, maybe even to escape from "real life" for half an hour........or 4 hours. I personally do not want to listen to the rantings of an abusive 14 year old who thinks that the who world is out to get her or be nasty to her. Play nicely or go away. Feel free to be abusive towards me if you must because I refuse to take any of your rantings personally.
I know Sherb I managed earlier today but this evening cant resist baiting - cos its so easy - never been called a geek before! LOL
just e-mailed Dr_God about the troll... hopefully they will be off soon.
no6/27 - you read these...
Everyone.......sorry for the long post but she is really getting on my nerves.
ok then mi sxi geeks i beta b off i reli do hope i tlk 2 u all in the nt so near future but i need 2 b getin redi im goin out wi mi m8s 2 get very pissed n stoned bubi mwah xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

no worries, found it at last!
it looks like it should be what the king does to a faithful soldier, but spelled alllll wrong.
Can anyone tell me what the 8 letter starts with please?
is there a list of s words anyone?
well that's the end of Babble for me
Thank you I seem to be missing the obviious stuff today
Zoom ... in8/60 ... to cajole
Thank you!!
Sorry, I meant that for MadXSer ...
So apparently I missed all the drama when I went out!
thnx airbeagle, i had that one, do you have a list of the s words?
Thanks for the help..........I got it!!!!!!!
so8, ri8, qu8 and in8
Apologies, Zoom, I don't.
oops that should be so9
calicomo, are you sure about that qu8? I only show a qu7 and Dr_Gods stat only show a single 8 letter word, not 4.
glad to know i'm not alone then! should i ask becky?!
LOL!!!!
sorry, you are right
LOL zoom! Makes you wonder where the parents are in these cases, huh.
Sorry, Zoom, it's too late to ask Becky ... she's off to get stoned with her m8s. ;-)
Zoom - dont please!!!!!!!!!
i show Ei7x1,In8x1,Qu7x1,Ri7x1,So7x1,So9x1,
if i was b's, i'd be hiding in a cupboard!!

Wel said Moosey - BrandyJack - know it's time for me to go when I have seen you on line first thing and you are now back. Have fun all and I guess I will see you in the morning :)
thank you brandyjack, at least i know what i can't see now(?!)
While I have the stats, still looking for the most of the words myself. Only 73 so far.
bye FMitch
I have 105/1282 and I'm seeing words that aren't there.
Night Moosey
Aah, brandyjack, another shattered illusion. I pictured you logging on, cracking your knuckles and finding all the words in about an hour and a half!
Well, my stat generator does use the complete list of words so technically your are correct. I'm just too stubborn to look at the list. Not going to let a silly program outsmart me. Especially one that I wrote..
Good for you brandyjack! I would have to peek after a few hours though-lol! Do you give the list to someone else 'til you've finished?
Besides, my eyesight is so bad I've only just now figured out what your buddy icon is. All I could see was golden flames before.... You would think that after looking at a grid full of upside down, backwards and sidways words that I'd be able to distinguish waht it was.....
I'm anxious chocolate eating now - this is not a good sign. I'll be on the wine next...can anyone help me with the last V before I check into Babble rehab! I've got: ve 4/7 x 3 ve 5/16 ve 4/8 ve 5/18 vo 5/16 vo 4/7 vo 5/18
as for the list, no it's on my hard drive. I can see the filename, I just don't open it. no point. It's the chase that counts. I no longer dedicate the hours necessary to finish the big puzzles, but some of the smaller ones I do. I do however have the complete 2nd letter list open and visible which makes solving them that much easier. Allows the infinite monkeys methodology a chance of success. Although my dyslexic fingers cuase more grief...
Ve 6 - ,Ve4x4,Ve5x2 Vo 4 - ,Vo4x2,Vo5x2
Brandyjack- lol! I think it might be the grid to blame, it certainly does odd things to my eyes after a while :)
well, off to buy some futon and mattress covers....
Cheers brandyjack, see you later :)
...oh no. Do I have to be anxious to eat chocolate now?
Thanks Brandyjack - got it. Is it just me or are the little words the worst to find?
No, but you do have to share!
I can e-mail you a Texan Lo ;)
Have no idea what a Texan is :(
Anj - any excuse will do for chocolate eating!
finally... getting to start
Lo, it sure is a mighty chew :D If you've only been over here a couple of years that probably won't mean anything (or then again, it might...) as they've been out of production for years. Rowntree have just done a limited run again tho' :) :) :)
I thought it was a Yorkie that was a mightly chew, or am I getting my chocolate bars mixed up?
hkw31 - good speech. Ah, I see it's chocolate past 7 :)
Thanks Anj. We get a Tex Bar in SA. Sort of like wafer and aero chocolate, anything like that?
wish i could get my hands on a raisin and biscuit yorkie right now..... lol
I'll nip out to the corner shop, get one and email it to you cathy, if you can track me down some biltong :)
Lo, bit firmer, with no crunchy bits. They used to be real teeth pullers in the old days. Sherb, Yorkie is not for girls, apparently. Don't know which ad genius thought THAT one up lol.
why, thank you very much, lola! now... if only i knew what a biltong is?!
Lo do you but biltong over here?
ahem.... HIGHLY dispute that comment, anj!!! lol...
I meant buy!
lola - think you can get biltong in Chobham Surrey Shop there.
Biltong is a cured meat delicacy from south africa! No Anj, don't see it in many of the shops here.....lol! Also am very fussy about my billies- must be dry and have a good flavour.
been staring and staring at this thing, and only just got the 'loo' word!
lola... is it a bit like jerky?
Cathy, you are brilliant! Hadn't seen that. Yorkie on it's way.....lol!
lol... very easy to get a yorkie around here!
Cathy- I think so but I've never eaten jerky, so not sure :)
ohh -and me Carhy - ta. You can get Biltong at our local market, can't stand the stuff myself though.
Cathy, i've got a big one in my fridge :) Hey Lola, check this out: http://www.sanza.co.uk/apps/shop/index.asp?m_id=3 I was hunting Cherry Ripes one afternoon and stumbled across this.
i have never eaten it either... but it is seasoned and dried meat, generally beef or turkey, and looks like leather to me!
if it's in your fridge, then it's BEING WASTED!
...i'm cross-breeding it with a twirl, a cherry ripe and a king size kit kat :)
Anj - you have a big one in the fridge - Cathy and I are speechless I think
Cherry Ripes! If ONLY we had those in the UK!
Well folks, 1789 for 146 and I am calling it a day, off to a BBQ instead. Good luck to all those babbling on through the night...
Can I get a clue for the ei7? Please!!!
Anj- thanks for that! Might do some shopping later, although it does make me feel a little homesick :'( Now, about the big one in your fridge.....
hkw - have fun Atalante, check out the link in my 1:19 post Fmitch - cold shower, now!
fmitch... all sorts of comments were going through my mind... i decided to play innocent!
you can also get them through www.cybercandy.co.uk
cannot get the 8 or 9 any help
Hi all, can anyone tell me which one I'm missing? oi 5 12 oi 4 4 ol 5 12 ol 5 12 ol 4 8 ol 5 14 ol 5 10 ol 4 4 ol 5 10 ov 4 7 ow 5 16 ow 4 7
I just want to be able to walk into a shop and buy them whenever I want!!
mickie, the ei7 sounds like someone who is a big fan of Billy with the sneer (ex Gen X, Rebel Yell 'n' all that)
ron, it's an inv8 (to lure, maybe deceive) and an sol9 (monologue)
S9/96 = dramatic speech intended to give the illusion of unspoken reflections
Mary 0r 4/4
Got the last O, it's an OR4/4, staring me right in the face.
Agree Atalante, we can get Fosters, 4X, VB & Carlton so why no Cherry Ripes? Cybercandy looks good - check this out: http://www.aquarterof.co.uk/
mary - it is an or 4/4
Thanks, Anj!
Thanx cmith and Jax, found it by babbling.
mary ow 5 16 clue: a night bird you allow
Anj- missing ve5/18. How about one of your "specials" ;)

Mary, looks like you need a wi6/30
Mary, looks like a wi6/30. Chocolate sticks you have without 'tea' ;)
Nooooooooooooooooooo! I looked left instead of right and thought I couldn't get that *hiding head under desk in sheer embarasment*
I tried to be gentle...
*muttering* stupid, stupid game.....
Mary - there is also a wo 4/8 I don't see on your list
Thanks to both Anj & Hugabugs. As usual it's an easy one that I should have seen. Oh well.
got the 8 thanks now for the 9
Jax, the Wo 4/8 is shown on the list, it's the first WO listed. Anyhow, I have the total of 19 W words per the stats. Thanks all. Still have to work on my D's, R's & T's
ty Mary - sorry I missed that
I just finished my R's. I have the T's and D's... and it's not looking pretty. :o(
Methinks there's a whole lot of chocolate-munching going on at the mo'... lol
Anj - just lots of smokin' and coffee drinkin'
Oh, and did I mention hair pulling?
*still hiding under desk*

Anj - You're soooooooo right!
LOL! Okay, just finished the W's - by my self!- so I'm feeling a little better :)
...stress, swearing, palpitations, insomnia :(
I dont know why but I thought my word list and stats were up top..now they are on the bottom , where I cant monitor them. Are they supposed to be there?
lianakate - try refreshing, and they'll go back to normal
Any clues for the wi6/39 and st6 (I have st6/21 x2 & st6/27x2)??
mary your wi 6 30
Chris, the wi6 means east to use, handle ro manage and is an extension of the wi5/18
Another typo... I may as well just blank out all the letters on my keyboard for all the use they are to me :'(
thanks, i did refresh..Now i found a word ..i dont think i can spell..lol, sol word..9 letters..but it is missing one..if I am spelling it right
Lianakate, don't forget the Qu counts as two tiles :)

ron, do you have the wi5/18 that doesn't mean increase girth?
yes
Thank you, brandyjack :)
Thank you Brandyjack
Could anyone tell me why this puzzle won`t take gilet!!!!!!!
Because it's spelt with 2 L's. Howzit!
it wont take ciel either
It`s spelt with one l,in the dictionary.
spell it right. Ceil 'i' before 'e' except after 'c' unless it's an 'a'
Aah. No idea then!
ron, put a Y on the end of it :)
not according to scrabble australian no 4
as for gilet (another name for a jacket), it looks to be a recent import from either italian or french. Hasn't been used long enough to be accepted in the english directory.
i've had my gilet for a couple of years!
this game uses the Enable dictionary which might be different from all the scrabble dictionaries.
And all this time I've been wearing a gillet! My spelling is so bad I'm surprised I ever find any words - lol!
...unless of course you also have wi5/18 associated with a certain coyote & Acme...which uses the same letters but won't like the Y, no siree... The wi5/18 root sounds like free-w..... as on trundle along in neutral :)
any excuse to corrupt the real English language
Just to let everyone know - I took care of a little problem a few of you had with a certain someone this morning, and there should hopefully be no more problems in the future regarding that certain someone. ;)
and which one do you consider the 'real' english language? Chaucerian, Shakespearean, Victorian, British, Canadian, American or Australian? Want an exercise in bafflement? Try reading a 400 year old cookbook. I'm glad those people knew how to cook, because they were useless at writing.
brandyjack - Thanks for that list. I finally finished.
Thanks Dr God, she was giving me a headache!
aaahhaaa read the v as an s
Thanks, Dr God!!!
Thanks Dr God thats a relief!!!!xxxx :)
Brandyjack - isn't it gillet??
400 year old cookbook? Sounds like 'The Joye of Snackes' if I remember my Pratchett :) Certain someone?? Has the redoubtable Becky been at the message log again??
Anj- she got even worse.... if that's possible. Was really quite offensive. Yeuch :(
I bear growled at her....
Chris, not that i've seen. I googled it and it came up that way. Had to look a bit to find one that wasn't capitalised which would have invalidated it. Something like Tillie's and Kleenex which are a trademark and always capitalised. Could be a similar situation here.
lets hope she doesn't come back under another name or even worse she brings her friends
i,ve had it, time for some R and R got 3/5ths great to have joined in the banter even if l am a died in the wool english man .if you are in Vancouver Brandyjack loved your city and surroundings
telic should be allowed too - but maybe thats too scientific for enable!
or should I say m8's LOL Thank you Dr God
p.s. and lilo!
roncook, other side of the continent for me. Well, sorta. down in the middle of the great lakes actually.
Moozey, you and Ginger had my sides splitting with your comments back to her! I couldn`t get any words for laughing. Thanks it made good comedy reading:)
A Book of Cookrye by Edward Allde, 1591. Originally Published 1584.
Right, got more coffee in preparation for finding the last T's and R's! Anj, are you still there?
Lottie - we aim to please :o)
I`m glad about that. Some people make this site all the more worthwhile :)
Whoops, had an attack of real world for a few minutes there... Bear growled huh? Excuse me folks, while I take a little paddle back through the posts...
lotti- don't think I'd play as much as I do if it wasn't for the chat log. It's a great place for a giggle :)
Help! Stuck for one word only, an NE6, have the birthmark one. Can't see the other for looking, a clue would be much appreciated.
<yawn> Snoozy Doogle awoke at 3:00 this afternoon and therefore missed this morning's excitement in the chat log. What happened??
Yeah thats true! Although it`s my mothers fault i`m an addict:)
ne6/18 wrestling or the Admiral at Jutland.
Hi zade, long time no see! The other ne6 is your famous sea captain (no, not brandyjack!) :)
many thanks Brandyjack and Lola100, i must be blind!!
Atalanta - the T word you mentioned is an acceptable word. Doogle you missed someone throwing their toys out of their pram, literally
Doogle- check out the logs at around 11:45 (I think) if you want to see what all the nonsense was about :)
Battle Royale this afternoon I see :) At least the rest of us in this little corner of cyberspace get along like one happy family... So who's turn is it to do the washing up?? lol :D
no washing up in this game, just washing out....
Yes, I've just finished checking out that scintilating repartee. Glad I missed it!
get fish and chips...no washing up...MMMM
Hey Bear, i'm going to see Steve Forbert at the Folk House next Sunday.
Good idea tbear, but none of those yukky mushy peas for me, thanks!
hmmm, fish and chips. didn't know there was a non-greasy kind.... In which case, what's the point?
Brandyjack...you eat them wrapped in paper straight from the chippy
Fish & Chips always taste better when wrapped in newspaper. I think that's some archaic bylaw in this country :)
no mushy peas...just mayo for the chips
Oh no! Just salt and vinegar on mine please :)
What kinda musak Anj..might join you
What about chippe sauce??? Or is that just a scottish thing? OK then, gravy at least :)
the crispy bits are the best
i don't think vegetable ink counts as your daily servings of vegetables. We do have a restaurant here in town called Britannia that deos make the most dwonderful fish and chips, and yes, they do wrap them in newspapers. Have to spend the extra for the haddock though as it is simple irresistible....
Brandyjack plaice is the best
my wife and kids like the mayo on the chips too. I prefer gravy and/or ketchup. And sea salt with malt vinegar... Think that's the end of the pork roast for tonight. Britannia here I come.....
I love the english cod, but that's because we don't get much of it in SA :)
I've already had mine...but after talking about it could easily start all over again. Enjoy it Brandyjack
Noooo, dabs are the best flat fish - more flavour. Haddock is nice but I prefer Pollack when I can find some :)
Just read all the shenanigans from the earlier chat log. It does make one wonder about some people!
Do you get kingklip out here?
Bear, Steve Forbert is a singer-songwriter in the Dylan or Richard Thompson mould. I'm not that well acquainted, but an old friend of mine is and reckons it's worth a visit. Tickets are £15.50
Yay Zade, you got a little blue handbag (am I the only one who thinks that's what they look like?). Awful, wasn't it?
lola..I take it that's a fish....No we don't that I know of
I thought they looked like the legoland boys and girls. Guess handbags just aren't my style.... Besides, the one my wife totes would crack the back of an ogre....
I just got caught up on the log. Someone's temper tantrum was annoying waste of log space IMHO. AS much as I love all of the improvements, the chat log refreshing every few seconds is driving me NUTS. It made reading the whole log take much longer. Is anyone else annoyed by this? Why can't we refresh ourselves as needed?
hi Swimmy how are you doing? I've just completed the puzzle and thinking of making a cup of tea
Beat you by 30 secs there Moozey. Currently enjoying some PGT and (*gasps*) no chocolate :(
My pink handbag isn't showing? I have 101 words, lots to go yet LOL
Hi Lola, i could do with a handbag, the amount of junk i carry around. It would have to be Louis Vuitton though, not a lego one!
swmbo, you have to enable your profile to get it to show. I didn't realise you can click on the handbags...
At the risk of making a fool of myself yet again tonight I am about to ask for help. I am missing an ro5. I have to displease or disturb (ala becky!) and wandered.
Swimmy you have to go into profiles and add some details
Forgot to check Show Profile. Must go look over what I have to see what I need to look for LOL
the handbags are little head and shoulders of either a girl or a boy depending on your sex. I thought you finished ages ago Anj
Lola, very similar to your wander one, different end.
Lola, try another ending to your 'wandered' :)
Anj, the hints you gave earlier for the wi5's didn't pan out for me. Got a 'for thick people' version?
Aaah, thanks babe ;)
haha, I did NOT put my age in as 35. Must go check profile again...
Oops- babes (plural) ;)
I'll try: 1) make a bigger gap 2) use, manage - as in power 3) the call of the w...... different spelling Any better??
can anyone help with a wi5/18? I have one that you can do with a sword.
Surely you are not THAT old Swimmy??
I wouldn't want to mislead anyone LOL
Ginger - do you have the wi5/18 which is I will need to wi.... my skirt if I eat any more Mars bars
s'ok, got that one now... now to work on the wo's!
or do you need the wi5 which is Trickery; cunning.
Thanks Moozey... got them now... any hints for wo's?
Got to go. Have fun people, and no strops please!
Ginger, there are 10 of them :) wah ha ha ha ha :')
which ones are you looking for?
Bye Zade! Come back soon :)
ok...back for more brainache
Thanx Anj...
wo 4 7 wo 5 16 wo 4 7 wo 4 9
Woo Cathy - the Yorkies are on ice :)
I have also had trouble with the birthmark one...
wo4 will not abbreviated wo4 St John's Wo.. is a herb
lol anj.... have been sick the last few days so reckon i need some chocolate therapy!
another wo4 is An unforested rolling plain; a moor. The wo5's are generally plurals
swmbo, think of a d6 word for empty or lacking (as in d..... of faith) and swop the D for an N :)
thanks moozey!
Perfect Anj!!! I was trying to make nevi fit LOL
so venti is not a valid word....who's going to inform Starbucks?
As a fairly newcomer, does the list of correct words for each puzzle get published anywhere.
AMN, if you go to yesterday's puzzle and click on the list of the person who is at the top, all of that day's words will be listed...
Cathy, I got in a but of a frappe about that one as well ;)
lol anj.... they just finished running a Green Tea frappe over here... it was excellent but it is, sadly, no more.. :-(
Sounds nice. There's a Boston Tea Party place in town here that does some weird stuff. I've had both cinnamon and aniseed teas there. You could conceivably poison yourself in there if you were addicted to the leaf lol
aniseed sounds interesting...not sure how it would be as a tea?
You guys ever tried rooibos tea?
Can't say i've had the pleasure Lola
what is in that, lola?
wont take alternate word for jimmy a lock
It means red bush and is a tea made from a shrub that grows in SA. You can get it at Tesco and I believe it's quite popular in parts of Europe. Bit of an aquired taste though, but no caffeine.
No caffeine? But I like sleepless nights, cold sweats & twitching...
Why do you think I've swapped to coffee since discovering babble?!
lol...I try to limit myself to one coffee a day but I do met freinds in Starbucks & Cafe Nero and almost always succumb to a white chocolate mocha
Anj- my real weakness is coca cola. Can drink gallons of the stuff and love it first thing in the morning for breakfast :)
Hi all! I've read Anj's kind clue for wi6/30 at 1:36 several times and still don't get it -- and I can't tell whether it's because I'm not British or not bright. Any other clues to be had? Thanks in advance!
oop... dozed off...
melissamay- sounds like a baby pig :)
MelissaMay - in Winnie the Pooh there is a little pink character that sounds very much like the wi word you are looking for :o)
Moozey- great minds?!
yes lol
...I did a clue at 1:36??
An abbreviated head piece with hair on it...
Oh my! As I suspected, it's "not bright." Moozey and lola, thanks for having great minds. :)
you did Anj and it was quite a good one actually but of course it it Babble time not local time
melissamay- lol! You're welcome :)
Ah...Chocolate sticks you have without 'tea' ;) Sorry, it's been a bit of a choccy crusade today. Think savoury snacks that you get at hatches, matches & dispatches. Also come in marmite and curry flavour in you're in a pub. ...and you should still take off the T :)
Anj, this is the one I meant: Mary, looks like a wi6/30. Chocolate sticks you have without 'tea' ;) and I thought the second sentence was the clue, so you can imagine my confusion!
Are there chocolate sticks called that too? I've heard of the marmite (yuck, devil's poo) ones but no chocolate.
marmite on toast with baked beans and cheese on top..... ohhhhhhhhh yum
I am SO confused! "Think savoury snacks that you get at hatches, matches & dispatches. Also come in marmite and curry flavour in you're in a pub. ...and you should still take off the T :)"
the chocolate ones are delish
Need us to send you some marmite and heinz baked beans too? :)
They make CHOCOLATE twi6/30's? Must find!
i have marmite (thanks to visiting family) and i have managed to find myself PROPER baked beans (Heinz vegetarian).... so you are reprieved!!!!
I'll send you some swimmy so you know what we mean but the wi word add a t in front of it gives you a snack we get over here in the UK made from wheat and is coated in either marmite or curry or (my fav) Worcester Sauce. Please note the T word is not in today's puzzle
howEVER, chocolate pig-like w/6's without the T sound wonderful!
...i've created a monster!
Sorry, should have said t wi6/30. Very excited about my new discovery :)
ooops my mistake the chocolate ones I was thinking of are called Matchsticks
Phew!!! I thought it was a hint for a word. Sometimes it is hard to tell the difference beyween hints and jokes *sigh* thanks Moozey.
i love matchsticks too... we can get them here
Lola, they are VERY moreish. Even more than mini-eggs. Nibble at your peril :)
you can't beat choc mini-eggs, I mean they are made of chocolate!!!
...and covered in a crispy candy shell :)
Cadbury's creme eggs.......... aaaaaah :)
How do you eat yours???
and how do you eat yours?
LOL
bite the top off, eat the filling, and then the rest,,, and YUM
Eat off top of chocolate, lick out creme, eat rest of chocolate. Repeat as necessary, sometimes quite a lot :)
didn't want to admit to eating more than one.... lol
Yup, gotta go with Lola on this one. There's no dainty way to eat a creme egg. Besides, they're dangerous when they are only wounded...
Need help with last Q please, I have the quo4/9 & 2 5/18's.
Cathy- it's amazing what you'll admit to in a chat log :)
Jera, it's a qu7/48 - past tense of your first qu5/18 :)
qu7/48
Jera, I am missing the same Q I think.
I think I may quite whilst I'm ahead as Anj seems to post a nano second before me each time LOL
quit
ty, Anj, feel better with Q's done!
Sheesh!!! I had the past tense on but not its root!!!
I like Kinder Surprizes. Chocolate AND a toy LOL
That makes a change Moozey. I usually proof read my posts at least 3 times just to ensure I miss at least one typo lol
Well I shall hit the hay as work beckons on the morrow and it is going to be a very busy day. Nytol
Just worked out that it is only 113 days 'til we can buy creme eggs based on the fact that they came out on boxing day last year. Will have to track down those other chocolate thingies in the meantime :)
I am missing a 7 letter word. I have the qu7/48, the ri7/40 and the so7/40. What does the 4th one start with???
Goodnight moozey :)
we get creme eggs all year round :o) Anj - cheeky you are obv. a fast reader lol
'nite, Moozey...
swm- ei 7
swmbo- ei7/40
Swimmy its an ei7
OH, THAT demned one!!! I have tried to find it, but the hints so far have been as cryptic (to me) as the word itself...
See, I didn't even got on the podium for that one. What the hell, it's not the winning lol ei7 - but you know that already lol Take care Moozey :)
Brandy jack where in Canada are you getting those great fish and chips ???
swm - e then an i4/5 then 2 letters, ends in c
not cryptic but sorry if that is too obvious.
Place called Britannia located in Trenton
I SWEAR I entered that word a long while back!!! Thank you Jax
good night folks hope tomorrow is less fraught!
even tho We are on opposite sides of Canada.... we have great fish and chips too
Blaze, you are in BC, right? Cape Breton here
Yes I am in rainy BC today
Right chaps, finished the puzzle and should get some shut-eye. See you all tomorrow :)
Sunny here today. I am right on the ocean, so we get a lot of breezy days
Me too. 'Nite Lola. 'NIte everyone...
swmbo... was toying around with the idea of moving to canada when my work permit is up here in the US.nova scotia really appeals to me - how is life there?
nitey nite good sleep to you see ya later
nite anj and lola
Life is grand here, but it is semi rural so no conveniences/annoynances of the big city. What kind of work do you do?
i work as a behavior specialist with people with developmental disabilities - i am in pennsylvania atthe moment... love the thought of being back by the sea!
Good evening/morning/afternoon fellow Babblers. Signing in at 137 words I see it's been a chocolate munching, hair tearing, brain bamboozling day here. Nothing different happening then.:-)
These words are a struggle today... the phonic words sound great
Jacula that would be right.... as I head for the chocolate cupboard
Hi everyone from Atlanta, GA. I've been here off and on today and have almost reached my goal of getting HALF the words! :)
Cathy 22w, that sounds like a skill that would be easy to find work in around here. If you get closer to a decision, let me know, I will send out feelers etc. for you...
Blaze - I have a cappuccino choccy bar here - twice the caffeine hit. Shall I send it over?
evening all ;o)
Just been looking back a bit at the log. There's an ei7/40? Oh b. hell! 'Lilo' and' 'lilos', and 'twiglet' are not accepted by the fegubrious Babblegrid. Why not??? LOL.
Evening Bobsta. At least at this time of the night you're not ignoring customers in our top of the range hifi shop. LOL.
Erm, I meant *Your shop.
Very true jacula. having to get on late tonight cos i'm on a course for most of next week and i'm not sure if there is a wi-fi connection at the hotel. how are you?
So is everyone pretending they know what fegubrious means or am I just stupid?? (It's not in my dictionary!)
nice picci btw
LOL. It's a word I just inventend. A kind of Jabberwock word. Dunno what it means but I think it describes the Babblegrid.
naw, it's just another 'f' word.
i'm with jera on that one!
Or even just *invented. LOL
Whew. Of course, with Babble, I deal with lots of words not in my dictionary. It's sad when you can't even cheat right.
BrandyJack, you know me too well! LOL. Piccy? Well thanks Bobsta. I saw what you said about drinking purple stuff making your hair fall out.:-)
that would be great, swmbo... i also worked with teenagers with behavioral difficulties before this, if that would help. i would prefer to have a job before applying for a visa - would save my savings getting a bashing!
It's a nice word though, isn't it (fegubrious)? Shall we invent a proper meaning for it and see if it appears in a new dictionary in about 2-3 years' time?
That sounds like fun, Jacula! We used to play crazy scrabble in college, where we would invent words from the letters we got. We came up with some doozies (& fooled lots of people)!
Dear Babble fiends, I'm missing an no4 and 5 -- I have the textile -- may I have a clue?
Fegubrious: A nice way of saying F****** difficult babble game
Better be careful Jacula, Becky got dealt with for having a to6/18 mouth......
lol bobsta.... hey... i have lost count of the times i have typed my chat in the word box!
A what mouth BJ? My maths on this isn't good.
2 more words to go! I need a te 5 and a sl 5. Questions - I have 2 te 5/10, can anyone give me a point value for the last te 5? And are both sl 5's, 5/12's? Thanks. Willing to trade....
it's one of today's words. It's a to 6/ 18
Gosh - just ask a question and I finally figure them out on my own. Sheesh. Anyone need help before I leave?
Ah! The place you visit when you first wake up. Got it BJ.
Struggling to find my last L. please could someone lead me to it. I have Le 6/21 Le 4/4 Le 4/7 Li 4/5 Li 4/5 Li 4/4 x3 Lo 4/5 Lo 4/4x2 Lo 4/7 Lo 5/18 Lo 4 7 tyvm
Its an lo 5/12. an lo 5 with another letter on the end
Well Jax - you could post your entire list of words but that might kinda spoil the fun of finding them. A list of v's might be good though.
I mean a lo 4/5 with another letter on the end
Does anyone happen to know how to prevent the downloading of icons everytime there is a new message posted? I like to vies the messages, but whenever there is a new one - my machine is really slowing down and reloading every icon. Please help - this also affects my playing.
A list of Ns would help me much if you're offering, Jax. :)

I was checking the rankings yesterday (after I became a 'pro' [Oh, LOL, have you any idea over the pond what pic that conjures up to we Brits?]) and found there's a JacKula.
I did - but the icons after the names is where the problem lies....
Thanks Jax.
I'm sure there's a hide buddy icons (avatars) thing somewhere.

Debsluvsmusic - Have you got broadband?

thx cathy and jacula - I will look around. You would think that since I work for a software co - I would know these things - but I am just an educator :)
jacula - yes, I have broadband and cathy yes the flags
hi everybody, little bit p...ed , 29 words to go will I make it? anyone want to take bets. I hope brandyjack has done a 2cnd letter post
i am not sure you can hide the flags, that's all
hi ferrari - yes he did back around 3 or 4 pm I think
would massively appreciate clues for the 8 and 9 letter words
Jax thanks for trying to help jax but the only L I can use is on the third row second from the right according to my stats. and I am now ready to concede defeat and go to bed
thanx jax
Hi Ferrari. Wedding soon, eh? Yes Jack has done the stats for that.
Thank you so much, Jax!
I am only looking at the last 50 so it is better - I will search around for something later - right now, I better get busy - I only have 100 words :)
I'm a typically stubborn Taurean and haven't even tried to use my new-found, paid-for stats on here. I prefer my own way of doing things for now.
Ferrari - are you on hotmail or MSN? Cos I'd really like to hear about the wedding etc.
huh mu - then then I was sending you after a different lo I guess...
Jax I had one last look and (Jeronimo) there it was thanks for your help
cathy - so 9, a speech given by one person, sometimes in the middle of a play (that is my defination, not a formal one) inv 8 - kinda like to wheedle something out of someone
oops definition
Congrats mu!
wedding 8 days ago,my god how time flies, we had a fantastic day and the mother of the bride didn't disgrace herself thank god. they were stunning bless them

jacula yes it is
Debluvsmusic - looks like you need another gi4/5
ferrari..ty, i got it while juggling diff spellings around..TY! Tough word.
Jacula, start at the lower right and work up and left.
French for 'sun' but without the 'e' is the start...
oops..the only thing holding me back was that damn..E..i thought was in it..
jacula it is there and you have spelled it correctly
Got it thanks, brotherCane.
have you all got it now?
I haven't!:-( Typed the squirming in word in but it says 'no'.:-((
got it hugabugs - thx
Just working my way through BrandyJack's 2nd letter list now.
thank you for the 9 letter clue! phew!
and the 8 letter one!
okay..i have alll my w's . with the exception of the biggun..for 36 pts..(wouldnt you know)..i know its wi, but thats all..I would be ever so grateful..if, well..(whispered)..you could "clue"me in.
I j8st found it..YAY....
You know it's late when you start typing Messages into the "Add word" box =)
which is the squirming word? I ' ve been logged on 20 mins and I haven't put a word in yet, faffing about as usual, do you think that could be a valid word? not today obviuosly
haha..energy..i do that when its NOT late..(am sooooooo glad i am not the only one)(
high energy... i was just making the same comment earlier!
Can anyone help me find the v05/18???
past tense of the vo4/7
Thanks Brandyjack. I always thought the vo4 was a noun, but apparently it must be a verb too...
vo5 is a shampoo
How much is $9.95 in English £ sterling?
haha, yes that is what I thought too!
vo4/7 - The winning of all the tricks during the play of one hand, as of bridge; a grand slam. I only knew the rodent definition. I knew that using past tense as the clue would get you the word, whether it was tecnically correct or not. It does appear as though tit is correct.
errrr..how much IS 9.95 in british sterling?...i have NO idea..sigh..was that a clue?
5.42 GBP
Dr God - I might get yelled at for asking... but... would there be any chance of some type of emoticons with the chat at all? something that would convert a :-) to a real one!
i had to go change my profile..there was something i was hiding from you all (God forbid)
What were you hiding Lianakate??
cathy22w- Emoticons, eh? Not a bad idea. I'll think about it. What does everyone else think?
lianakate, it's still in your profile. lol
about the synchronized swimming team? geez Gwen..my bad..(heh)
brandyjack, why is the vo4/7 anything to do with bridge,even the vo4/8 doesn't make sense.
Hi Gwen!
Dr_God. Know a chap on Beeb Radio 2 here in UK that could explode this site with members if we tell him about it. He did it for 'Friends Reunited' but, in my mind, and that of the founder members who were there at the start this may not be for the better (for the members). Should we tell him about you or not?
Hi Swmbo. About to go home, need any cloos?
that's the primary definition of the vo4/7. I only knew about the rodent myself. I am not a bridge player. Click the word and see what dictionary dot com says about it.
yikes - Emoticons, yes they would be cool - but I am having enough problems with the other icons and the flags after the names. But I will keep working on that when I have some spare time
Thanks Gwen, but I still need 70 words, I may have to just give up *shrug* I like the shorter games better.
need clues for di6, sl6, te6, and ti6
I have to go put dang dawgs in pen, ..dont let anyone get in my stats positon..HAHAH
Jacula- If you have some pull with a radio chap, yank away. ;) We can never have too many players here at Babble.
brothercaine, ti6, small yellowish moths whose larvae feed on wool or fur
I prefer the longer games. If I don't finish, at least I'm not sitting around for 5-6 hours bored out of my skull..
Brother Caine the sl/6 is someone who is averse to cleanliness.
Well, yes, Dr_God, I can 'yank' (*blushes* but not how the UK follks might take that word!) but it might make you a multi-millionaire and us lot unable to talk to you because you've taken on a whole load of people to run the site for you.:-(
thanks, i needed that
I've added a few nifty little links to the order upgrade page that link to current currency convertion (say that ten times fast) rates. So hopefully we won't have any more "how much does it cost?" problems.
Jacula- I'm a one-man show. I'll always be here. ;)
Dollars are generally around half and a bit more than £'s sterling.
brothercaine, te6/18 The rearmost segment of the body of certain arthropods
Dr_God. You'd better be JT 'cos I'll hold you to that if you become a multi-millionaire.;-)
I'd be satisfied being a multi-thousandaire at this point. ;)
I'll get in touch with the radio guy this week, prob. later today. Still not sure I'm doing the right thing though.
You do realise it will bring trolls on site as well as many new members don't you, Dr_God?
Gwen, how DO you get those words??? You can keep the hints rollimg LOL
More chaps, lasses and blokes is always a good thing.
Thanks Gwen and Snowy; got 'em.
Jacula- Due to the-one-who-shall-not-be-named this morning, I've built a decent "blacklist" system, so I can handle trolls. ;)
I finally joined pro babbler how did you go about picking your pictures.?
um..those who live "under the bridge" in Michigan..(not yoopers)..are called "trolls" just a little nonsense info.
Looking for my last Y. I have all the alpine singing ones...
Dr_God. I've not read right back to this morning's postings as we had guests today and we've been busy.
Goodnight & goodluck all. Am giving up now @ 131/1586. Many thanks for all your stats & clues. Looking forward to joining you all tomorrow for another grid.
swmbo, the clue really is to give up.
Goodnight snowyowl. I know you'll be silent as you fly past on your way home. Just don't shriek when you get there. LOL.
Can anyone help with di5 and di6?
yi 5 18 yo 5 18 yo 6 30 yo 5 18
di/5 Compounds that contain two hydroxy groups, generally assumed to be, but not necessarily, alcoholic. working on di6 myself.
Dr_God how do we go about picking pictures after we join pro?
Click on "My Profile"
Dr_God. Meant to say that while I was in a local bookshop on Thursday last week I saw a card with loads of beardies like yourself all in a pyramid on a bike or something. meant to buy it and stick it on my profile pic as the 'Babblers' Pic' but forgot. Will not forget this Thursday though.:-)))
Thank you I'll have hubby help now not too good on computers
Thanks, BrotherCaine for the di5!
Thanx Brothercaine and Jacula! So obvious when pointed out!
speedfreak - go to 'my pictures' on your computer and find a centralised pic of whatever you want us to see. You can then either shrink it down to 98x98 pixels or let the site do it for you. But, be warned, if you do let the site do it, your pic may end up long and thin.
Babble: asymptotically approaching frustration
Still need di6 please!
Sorry Mickie, can't help. Don't have it myself yet. This fegubrious grid won't give it to me!
greetings all.
Just got a pic of my 8 month old up loaded and wanted to see if I did it right.
di6: bilingual, e.g., a di6 person, publication, etc.
mickie, I don't have it either :(
di6/24 A di... publication is any edition in which the content is presented in two languages on the same page or on facing pages.
Sweet Minski!
Okay, thanks! I think I am ready to call it a night. I am all babbled out!
I haven't found the 8 or the 9 yet. Any help would be appreciated. TIA.
i8: wheedle: influence or urge by gentle urging, caressing, or flattering s9: dramatic or literary form of discourse in which a character talks to himself or herself or reveals his or her thoughts without addressing a listener.
in8 means to lure someone into doing something so9 is to carry on a conversation with ones self.
Thanks. Got the 9. Working on the 8.
Got the 8. thanks.
Help, Dr. God -- my grid is missing again -f5 isn't working for me. What am I doing wrong?
Grid just popped up -- thanks!!
for the di6, a person who speaks multiple languages is said to be a poly...., so a person who only speaks two languages is a di....
Well I can't get 'lingual' to work in the grid.:-(
divide it in half . . . the first half is what you do with a shovel . . .
Just wanted to say what a perfect Sunday night, holiday tomorrow, NASCAR race on and large Babble puzzle, NICE!!!
Thanks Uneaixoise, got it. That's another new word I've learned.
first time here, and so far I love it! Maybe I'll even get a few words....
ohhh great clue SWMBO - I never would have found the s one without a clue

The only letters I'm finished with are R & D. Working my way through. Getting late though.
Got the Es.
Got the Qs.
Oh, my fingers are cramping up, my breath comes in short puffs, and I am breaking out in hives! Mercy!!!
Arrghh! I'm down to the s9 and a d4. Any hints on the 9?
49 words. Each one is obtained with my life's blood... Woe is me!
s9: dramatic or literary form of discourse in which a character talks to himself or herself or reveals his or her thoughts without addressing a listener. coff coff
S9 - Shakespeare wrote many famous ones.
i am gonna try like hell to get the ei/7..and then..i quit. any clues out there?..(am begging)..ha
CSA thanks so much! CanNOT believe I couldn't see that!
E7 - something to do with manga/anime. Monkey typing was the only way I stumbled onto it.
ei6? OK, take the first three letters of a kind of goose down and then the last three letters of a person who abuses alcohol. try that
OH and put an 'o' in the middle...
sfneil - I was hanging my head in shame when I finally found it - former English major!
There is an i4 in the middle.
why not just take the last four letters of the alchohol abuser?
CSA: Humanities here, but equal shame!
But of course, Brandyjack, but you are not DYING, I am, that is why I make silly mistakes. coff coff
I am looking for an so6 that is not dirty or something that has been worked out. Anybody?
Just tesing my icon...
Er. Testing. Hi!
After some intense digging.... ei7/40 - Derived from Plato, who probably inherited the concept from Persians, who in turn probably inherited it from Egyptians. The ancient view of vision was very different from ours. Ei..... vision is the ancient term. Ei.et.. is what the term became with the movement from qualitative to quantitative.
Hi sarcasticah! Cute icon
So6 - "A gold coin of the Roman Empire used in Europe until the 15th century. Also called bezant. Printing. A virgule; a slash."
Thanks! I love Invader Zim...
it's past tense of what you're doing here - you s***** to get all of the words, or rather your s***** to get them all yesterday
hmmm, gotta check my coin collection, see if I have one of those.....
Dr_God. I am having a problem. I am trying to enter a word, and it keeps saying I've used it. But it isn't in my list of words. Can you explain?
no no no, she wants the SO, not the ST....
Sorry SWMBO - I misread - thought you were looking for a different word
Never mind. I refreshed and it came up.
Help please!!! di 6 any clues or value?? thanks
Got the so6, thanks! and also thak you cadfan your heart was in the right place. I think I may have rallied a bit...
Di6/24 - brandyjack gave a definition at 8:09.
di6? a word that means to excavate plus a word that means a piece of land.
correction: brandyjack's post at 8:19. silly fingers....
Stats are FINALLY all grey! Thanks for the help, CSA! Going to have a cocktail now...
I think I'm missing a to6 - I have the loo, the work and the spanish one.
sfneil - have a sip on my behalf.... And I'll raise my tea.
To6/21 - past tense of a to4/4.
to 6 name of a city in ohio to 6 carried something
to6/21 is the work one.
There are 4 To6's!
I've got 12 words left to find. A do4, en5, gi4, id6. le4, lo4, lo5, no6, so4, te5, to6 & tr5.
Forget the to6. Just found it.
thanks for the to6 - found it.
tr5 think of treasures
Thanks, calicomo, got that one now.
en5 - concluding portion of a work of prose/poetry. id6 - pl. of your Id6. te5 - end of a goal oriented project. tr5 - treasure tr***. Have to let us know which ones of the others you have....
en5 - a messenger
Got the en5 now thanks, syncopate & CSA.
The gi4s only differ in the last letter
need a little help on the T words. Looking for TW4 (the first one, not the "second" one) and TE4. Any hints?
thanks CSA and Swmbo done!!!!!
Tw4/8 - a small branch of a tree.
Te4/4 - no def, but sounds like more than one phone. Or 'nyah, nyah, he **** mom on you.'
cant find the le6,keep falling asleep
ferrari - I've got that one. Think French & foreign....
8 words left for me now.
think! how do you do that
CSA - thanks so much - go them both (but still sooo many to go).
do4 (not the out of work handout, the mother who loves to much, the idiot or the thing of small value.
Do4 - "A small Dutch coin, worth about half a farthing; also, a similar small coin once used in Scotland; hence, any small piece of money." Think Nike's slogan "Just ****."
Maybe Do4 - "half rotten."
el6, id6, lo4 (not the stone, the lengthy thing, the many things, the kissy thing or the low chap).
Done for tonight--112 words using my feeble mind, your great clues, and some lucky keying! Anything over half is a real treat for me! Thanks to you all! Does anyone know of a BA chapter?! 'Cause I've been addicted for a while!
El6 - "To remove or carry away to a distance, especially so as to conceal. To take (oneself) to a distance."
Id6 - pl. of Id5. "A foolish or stupid person" - could be my middle name.
jacula theres an 8 and a 5 which havent you got? I need a ti6 and a to5, what's the total for today?
jacula - look in the "lo4 and found"
Lo4 - **** my keys. Or **** my mind! Think tv show.
Thanks CSA. God the id now. Was jsut going wrong way on grid to get it before.
May I have a hint for te6 please?
God?? meant *got
the stone? the many things? the kissy thing? the low chap? what letters do these start with please?
It's 11:30pm and pumpkin-time for Minski. I have 53 words left to find. 146 words for 1800 points.
Lo She Who Must Be Obeyed.
OK, I have the lowly chap, but the others do not seem familiar...
calicomo - Admiral _____ at Trafalgar, only with a t
Jacula, you called?
Looking for some help on the NE6 - I have the man's name - any hints for me, please.
thank you got it!
I don't think I have the kissy thing. I usually remember kissy things LOL
calicomo - it's all about the last segment of a body. Easier way of putting it may be to say that it everyone had the mobile phones powered up and someone called them the first part of the original word in plural, they could be said to have their ***s on.
ne6: A congenital growth or mark on the skin, such as a mole or birthmark.
Thanx Jacula, got more words. Feeling positively peppy
is there a ti6?
swmbo - thanks - I ogt it. Now how about a good nudge on the LE6?
I have one last st6. I have things taken unlawfully, past tense effort, scattered, emotionless, and powerful. Any clues? I also have one last so4 -- I have 4/4X3, 4/5, and 4/7, and am getting monkey typing carpal tunnel. Thanks for any help!
melissamay - wearing a st5/10
Sorry! Just got distracted by the little pink handbags after the flags. Those are our profiles then?
le6: to go off and join the French Foreign Le****
Oh, and a blue handbag now belonging to a chap. ROFLOL.
Torgone, thanks! Ack.
Like it? It's Prado!
Oh! I see they are heads and shoulders now, not handbags. GIGGLING FIT TO BUST.
Torgone - You mean Prada. LOL.
I don't know handbags....
I think I've got 7 words to go but I'm laughing so much I doubt I can find 'em now.
sigh I still have 36 to go
I don't know many words tonight either - 74 to go.
Well, torgone, I guess you wouldn't, would you?
st6: Having or wearing a st5 (add an 'ed')
melissamay change the ending of of your st18,it becomes an st21, is there a ti6?
You are doing better than I am Callie; I have 44 to go. I keep telling myself to go to bed...
ti6: small yellowish moths whose larvae feed on wool or fur
Erm, control yourself woman and think what words you've got left to find. Erm, erm... el6, le4, lo4, lo5, so4, te5, to5.
swmbo - I always forget to go in that direction - thanks, thanks, thanks. Still need a LI4 (not beach, falsehood, musical or owing) and one each LO 4 & 5 (plus others). UGH
ti6 small yellowish moths whose larvae feed on wool or fur. All I'm missing of s is one s4. I have 4/4X3, 4/5, and 4/7. Can't find it anywhere!
Dianne, what about the King of the Beasts???
ferrari - add the first person singular between the penultimate and last letter of your ti5/12.
thanks jacula, just a to5 to go, my computer's being so sloooowwww
swmbo - how did I miss that? It was staring at me :) Thanks.
Missing two ol5s -- have the butters and 2 ageds. Anyone have them all? Values or defs would be so helpful!
Dianne, they always are. We need to put together the Laws of Babble, e.g. 1. The more obvious to word, the longer you must look it.
1. The more obvious to word, the longer you must look FOR it.
2. As soon as you ask for help, the answer becomes evident.
melissa may I think there are 12 s4s
Sorry ferrari, I meant so4s. I'm out of my babbling mind.

Last word -- one de5 -- got the cattle and the condescension -- please help if you can! Thanks!
Doesn't matter now. I'll check what it was all about in a bit.
Never mind -- got it! O happy day!
