s5/22
s 6/18
s 6/36
OK, 122 words...that's more like it. Evening/morning all!
good thanks Tues. im off to England and NY for a few weeks ,so will be a spasmodic babbler
Good for you... safe journeys...
thanks, taking my laptop. so will be around,keep well. and now for todays puzzle!
ca6/24
Got Frankie |Laine's Mule Train playing on the cd here... keep on going on folks!
s6/24
Hi Everyone. Oh Blaze - you're so bubbly tonight!
Thanks hugs... how are you?? I could not resist the cute little icon...
c 7/36
Just got up from a wee nap. I was all Babbled out. But now I'm ready to go.
'Witchcraft' here, Jaqus, sung by you know who.
s7/44
Heya Hugs! There have to be some long words here, but haven't found any yet.
Dammit! It's a trap! Looks easy... isn't.
T'is.
Hi torgone! I haven't found anything over 5 yet! :o(
Well, there's a big ol' ki4/8 in there for you.
right back at you torgone.....
Aww. Sweet.
e6/24 i6/24
Aww... How sweet! :o)
wipe those s6/36es off your faces, please!
Oh geez... another case of seeing it one way but not the other. Thanks Neil.
are you being the s6/18 tonite...???
s6/30
a6/24
a6/18
Say Neil.... did anyone ever email you with that spelling variation?
Hugs no one did. I am still quite eager to find out, as the grid's spelling was the only one I've ever seen.
My websters spells it as it was in the puzzle. Perhaps the British spelling is different.
m6/30
I'm curious too. I even did some searches with variations and nothing came up... at least nothing English. R6/18
I wondered at one point if it had been confused with another word. But even then, I'm very curious as to what word that could be?
A Frankie Laine song I'm listening to, after Rawhide - My heart knows what the wild goose knows, I must go where the wild goose goes. Wild goose, brother goose, which is best? A wanderin' fool or a heart at rest? Tonight I heard the wild goose cry, Wingin' north in the lonely sky. Tried to sleep, it weren't no use, 'Cause I am a brother to the old wild goose, (Oh, my heart knows what the wild goose knows,) (And I must go where the wild goose goes.) (Wild goose, brother goose, which is best?) (A wanderin' fool or a heart at rest?) Woman was kind and true to me. She thinks she loves me, the more fool she. She's got a love that ain't no use, To love a brother of the old wild goose. (My heart knows what the wild goose knows,)
I am curious what word are you talking about ??
Sinatra, The Wave, 'the fundamental lonliness goes whenever two can dream a dream together...'
122 words. Not quite sure about the maths and the stats. I'm not sao good on that.
Ennead?
o7/36
I guess it's okay to say it now, right? The word was "ennead", meaning a group of nine. But several players expressed surprise that the "real" way of spelling it, even though (apparently) it was in the grid, was not accepted.
Blaze - I was talking about Babblers, as Mab has realised. It wasn't a word clue.
I am curious to know what spelling is considered authentic by those who were complaining.
Jac I was asking about the Hug and sfneil word... I am listening to Rod Stewart in his new colleciton of Sinatra songs...etc....
morning folks
Thanks unea ... it helps to have babble buddies
Hi Daria! Have you recovered from yesterday's grid yet?
...and Babble bubbles, yes?
You bet your sweet....babble bubbles....
sorry folks! May be only one or two understand me posting the wild goose song after the last grid.:-(
Can I get some bubbles coming from a glass?
not quite hugs, since I just finished it a few hrs ago. ;)
Carry on, Jacula. Frankie rocks!
r8/40
Bottle of Moet do ya, Hugabugs? Got some here, but don't like the stuff myself.
Frankie Laine - 'Don't Fence Me In'- must bemy theme song.:-))
On occasion... I don't make a habit of it! But after yesterday's, I feel a need to celebrate just for surviving!
Me, too, Jacula! Not a fan of the bubbly... (I actually do like flat champagne... talk about a plebe!)
I have all 133
Something earthy and red for me please.
12:44 amUneaixoise is there a clue you could give for that r 8 ??
m6/24
pinkish
Jacula, my grandmother requested in her will to have Bing Crosby's recording of 'Don't Fence Me In' played at her funeral... and it was!
sfneil, that is seriously awesome.
Lol Neil, if it were appropriate, I'd cite the track I'm listening to now - 'Strange Lady in Town'... still by Frankie Laine,
LOL ROTFLMAO
Neil, believe me, that first, followed by Lynyrd Skynrd's Free Bird and Elton John's Skyline Pigeon sure gets the message across!
UNE you rock thanks
WTF?
t8/40
LMBYS - start LISTENING to music!
Jacula - do you have any preferences?
r6/27 I think this is a first.... I have the r's done before any other letter. usually it's one of my last
faces, music, words and aromas... the last thing we all remember in our dotage. Believe me, I know! Anyone who 'knows' me by now, will know what I mean by that.
sfneil, I just noticed your question below: the word is properly spelled enneatic. Since it was actually possible to spell it correctly in the puzzle, it was a bit annoying to have the incorrect spelling be the only acceptable entry.
Jacula, I plan to stipulare for David Byrne's version of DFMI on the occasion of my own demise.
er, "stipulate"
WTFdoes Dotage mean?
s6/18 x 3
Lmyb --- WTF is not to appropriate for this chat log....
That's when you become a dotard.
We don't have that Blimey music in the States
torgone, that was subtly hilarious. Kudos!
70s heavy rock. (Preference) But as I saidm eclectic really, Glen Miller onwards does it for me.... depends on the mood and the moment. And don't forget the classics!
Jacula don't be a bitvh
n6/18
Lmybs, don't call anyone here that, misspelled or otherwise.
LmyBs, that's not nice.
wtf is a bivth??? Bitvh from helll?
I wished that this site wan't populated with bitches and cowards
I'm offended. Why are people like him allowed to post here?
Yes, do go away, vulgar person.
Dr_God are you watching ????
LmyBs, just to warn you, if you persist, you could find you're barred.
mab - I'm just keeping it real
LmyBs - what's going on here? If you are offending my friends I need you to explain it to all of us.
real does not have to mean rude.
I'm bitvh on my father's side.
DR_God's watching, have no fear.
You're friends? - CYBER GEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mab, please do not encourage him
I vote for LmyBs's removal. Who seconds?
No, Jac, it's Hevl -- where misspellers go when they kick the bukcet. Now let's all play "pretend the real keeper doesn't exist", shall we?
melisasmay: ah! consonant creep! there is no way any form of this word from the greek original would have contained a 't'. enneas ("nine") becomes ennead(-) in the combining form. Something must have happened while I wasn't looking if people think of "enneatic" before "enneadic"!
ok that's enough
sfneil your timing is priceless.... that really made me LOL
Hey fags
Ah, MM, over the Styx and beyond, eh? I get it.
Consonant creep, yes, sfneil. Nicely put!
I haven't seen this this many geeks since the Triumph went to the latest Star Wars movie opeing...which one of these buttoms calls your mothers for a rde home?
i suggest you all quit being so homosexual and start being real.
LmyBs, if we're geeks, what are you doing here?
I know of several homosexuals who are real.
He's a babylonian....and he likes it...he also likes to be taken to the boneyard.
A record for me! How long have I been logged on? Haven't loked at grid yet.
we need an "ignore" feature
Babbler - I'm drunk and you have no life
you need a "get a life feature"
LOL !!!
Dr_God this needs to be dealt with NOW
Neil - I lmow about them same no of gays. They are not all bitches.
so do you obviously if you didn't come to even play the game
sfneil - I bet you know a few homosexuals...biblically
I gurantee you the only reason i stumbled upon this lame ass site is because of my drunk friends who obviously love the cock and are into this gay shit.
Starting now I say we all ignore this tomfoolery and get back to the grid.
good call, doons
Doons, your boyfriend is about to grid your fat pimply ass.
tomfoolery? that is quite possibly that gayest word ever
Boss has been contacted.
s7/28
it is my goal tonight to get ousted from this gayness
Dr. God is the biggest uber nerd that I have ever heard of
I think the last fool that tried this was never heard from again.... and his mother was informed
that, and reach a blood alcohol level of at least .2
please somebody kick me off this site
In the meantime, if you can't iether laff up to or ignore, just contiunue to ignore,
I love how he ends his incoherent statement with a preposition...LOL
did anybody get rims?
Blaze - Your mother's mouth is full...she can't speak right now
could be worse -- could be in txt spk!
Well then why don't you just go. You'll be gone soon enough.
rim job? Blazes mother gave one to me
did you not get the t8 then?
I had about t8 inches in your moms ass last night
LmyBs -we call all do that, but that's not the point. Listening to Frankie Laine singing Granada now. Listen to it now and stop being a prat. Eff off now, and come back soon when you've gtot the point, darlin'.
the boss has been notified of that language Jacula
This is all pretty gross. Can we please get back to business - which is to have fun - not read this tacky stuff. Or am I being over-reactive ......
Stop being a silly little prat. It's not impressive, it's not funny and it's not wise. Bog off!
thank you, malise!!!
Malise - not at all. That's what we are trying to avoid.
Soooooo....... any other new 8's out yet?
Don't bother, Jacula. Somebody (and somebody's parents) is about to find out the importance of an IP address.
You're right there Torgone. That awas about to be my next point. Oh, ROFLOL. But sorry, even though I do have a houseful of teenagers and early 20s most of the time, this stupidity irritates me.... AARGH.
s 6/30 & 7/44
i7/36
It is irritating, but fleeting.
ANyway, afore we start on the puzzle stuff - is everyone in the path of hurricane Rita okay? Things didn't ound too good when I read the news earlier.
I'd like to know too - I'm watching BBC Breakfast news.
Daria, who was on earlier, spent the whole evening under tornado warnings due to Rita
lianakate's hubby is in the area, doing insurance work. Don't think he's in harm's way though. I hope.
A friend of my other half lost her house and all her posessions in Katrina. She went to her Mom's in Texas, and has now been moved on again, as far as we know.
I believe that New Orleans lost a recently repaired levee, much flooding, but no one was harmed. It's heart-breaking, all of it.
Great... a managable grid! Morning all...
My sis in law was in Houston, but she's home now, dunno how, but thank God!
sprite, thank goodness you're here. Now some of those 8s might come out of hiding! Good to see you...
It seems that Houston has been spared much of the damage that was predicted, thank goodness!
Lol, none discovered yet? Let's scare them out in the open then ;)
Ah yea, the grid! 122 words.
There's been talk of a t8, but I don't quite believe it.
I've got both the r8 and t8 that's been found thus far
A friend of mine from NO was staying in Galveston... now they're up in Dallas.
Ah, I missed the r8! It's been an, um, eventful log.
4=56., 5=25,6=25 7=11, 8=5.
the r8 is colorful
the t8 is wee
A good thing, Hugs, Galveston was hit pretty hard.
I told her that they're tracking her.
o8/50
O my, some pathetic visitors again, I see. Ignore is all you can do really. And I second all those good wishes for those in the track of the storm, and behind it. May they be safe.
got the T8 thanks hugs
Playing Glenn Campbell's Galveston n the jukebox here for all those folks.xx
tims should be a word....have they not heard of Tim Horton's the best coffee and donut shop
Tods and Tads are words, why not Tims indeed.
ROFLOL! Alright, for another 8: don't be afraid to try something stupid. Start with a tiny M4/6 and then try some snow. Then pluralize! M7/52 - M8/70.
o6/24
As should "timmus" : all the cups, wrappers etc. found along the roads near any Horton's.
It's so sad for the folks around the gulf. I feel guilty that we had a beautiful day here today.
I am not sure if their grief would be any less if we would all have suffered the same fate. At least now there are people like you and me who can spare them prayers, good thoughts and perhaps help.
I agree with Sprite... we or the ones who go to help like baggo are needed..No ying without yang
Yes, I have felt mournful for them. I want to go down to help out. It's truly heart-wrenching.
A good thought, Sprite, thanks!
morning all :) a7/36
Well let's see, 'Not There' were air raid, bar tender, tennis. rabid, defenestrate, adante & antacid. There, but not in were Brian, Edna & Diane from Britain. Anita, Anne & Rita, who are Arian, were not allowed i n either, despite being Arian.
Morning sherb, nice entree ;)
Sprite - for your m7&8... I don't get the snow part :(
morning sprite, thanks.....looks like it's a bit more leisurely than yesterday :)
sprite ty for m7&8 - I can't even use maxi-ones !! But back to normality and the simple things in life - we have some baby fish .......
Neil, at the least, poor people have been made visible to all, including our leaders; perhaps change is possible.
Hugabugs: think of what you need to travel over snow. It is really that simpel, I tried it just for fun, because it made such a funny word. Then it took!
Yeah, me either Hugs! (You'ld think you'd get the snow, if anyone would!)
Oh geez... just got it Sprite! Was working the wrong angle........AGAIN!
Malise, how great to know that the fishy babble-gremlin is still active :)
mab, that's true. I hope we have (or will have) lleaders who can learn from this!
Neil - Yeah... you'd think it would come natural to me. However, the i7/36 did... I get used to it being here.
Wow hugabugs, nice one!
One more 8 to tackle.... just don't know where though.
Would some kind person please post the stats - now that things have calmed down I can back to playing this game :)
E7/36 will take ages ;)
Going now folks. Need sleep
Sleep well, Jacula. I'll do the stats, just hold on.
g'nite Jac! Sweet dreams
Sweet dreams, Jacula!
Well I have hope that our chief blockhead will 'get it' having seen it up close for the first time: real poverty, real suffering. If he doesn't, he's not capable of ever understanding, which I consider a considerable possibility.
Good night Jacula!
Nice one Sprite... thanks
i'm afraid he has permanent blinders . . . like his mom and dad . . .
Sprite - E7 - good one. Thanks.
Today's babble stats: 8 x 5 7 x 11 6 x 25 5 x 25 4 x 56 --- 122 words --- A -- 9 C -- 12 E -- 9 i -- 7 K -- 2 M -- 17 N -- 9 O -- 8 R -- 7 S -- 37 T -- 4 Y -- 1
I expect you're right Une. So discouraging.
Ugh. mab, I fear you're right about the POTUS. I can't comment further now -- babble has consumed my brain. I'm going to bed. I'll try again tomorrow. Thanks, everyone!
does that m 7/52 start like the the state or the word plus the other clue ??? I'm monkey typing and thinking...still not getting it it.
Bless your little heart, sprite! Thanks!
G'Nite Neil - rest well and sweet dreams
No Blaze, it starts with something very small.
'Nite, Hugs! Thanks!
Night Neil.
Blaze - think skirt for the start of the M7.
Night mab.
G'nite all. I too must drag my lumbering hulk to bed. I shall try to play more later. Thanks all for the fun!
got it....just did not have the right m4/6 to start but now we are cooking with gas.... I am blazing along tonite
I shall retire, too. I've become positively morose; sleep needed. Thanks everyone.
There is another E7/36, building on E5/10. Got to do with red crystalline powder / salt.
Nitey Nites torgone....sweet dreams to you too!
Sleep well sfneil, torgone and mab.
I can't see any more words, think I should go to sleep now too. Found a c6/24, a cordial, if that's useful?
Goodnight mab... sleep well.
It is, Babbler, thanks :) Sweet dreams for you too.
Nitey-nite Hugs.
Has S7/44 been mentioned yet?
Oh, and a similar S7/28.
If it builds off the s6/30, yes Sprite
Sorry, I must read the log better. It is getting so long though, lately ;)
I know what you mean... I can't see your similar s7/28 though
Maybe similar is too strongly put. It's built the same way, takes another vowel though and another center twin.
Sprite I got the E words...they are difinitely Babble logic
morning all:) it's sunny here in UK, just thinking about those affected by Rita - hoping not too much devastation.
Found them Sprite. Thank you
Did anyone finish the Cs yet? I can't find those last two, think I tried every possibility. Even monkeytyping won't work.
Sorry Sprite - I've only got 7 of them
I only have 7 too
Sprite - I would love to help you but I have no idea how many Cs there are :(
See Sprite's post at 2:07
This is what I have so far for Cs: c 4 6 c 7 36 c 6 24 c 6 24 c 7 36 c 6 24 c 4 6 c 5 14 c 4 6 c 4 9 Dianne, a little earlier in the log the stats were posted. There are 12 Cs.
Hugs - thanks. I totally missed that when Ii had lunch> DUH. Thanks Sprite for doing the post.
Lol, I just now realise you were the one asking for them, Dianne. ;)
My grid looks like a gian C - all the outside is shaded except for the M.
I wonder if that scores, Hugs ;)
Kinda like a bingo card!
sprite, another c7 36 followed by c8 50
Sprite - I compared my c's to yours... nothing new for you. Sorry.
Speaking of bingo... I can reveal that the missing Cs must be our missing 8 and a 7, hopefully related. I am done except for those 2... can you believe it? Only missing BIGGIES??? Still can't find them, though.
Well done Sprite
sprite, check the dictionary def for your c7/36 -- it will help :)
Highlander! Would you please please give me a clue for that combo? It's driving me bananas.
insert after your 2nd c7
Grumble... that simple, eh? Thanks, melissa and highlander. Never knew it could be spelled like that. Should look up defs more often, apparently :)
Darlin', I nearly always do...for those weird little alternative spellings that make this game such a challenge!
Good tip, I'll remember that. Just was too arrogant, I thought I certainly knew what my C7/36 meant ;) 122 words / 5.05 / 1883 points it is then, for today. A bit disappointing after yesterday's giant, lol.
Thanks Sprite and highlander and melissamay... my c's are now done.
more hints!!!
7s: A36, C36, C36, C36, E36, E36, M52, O36, S28, S44. Good hunting, all of you, and thanks for the fun and sharing again. Guess my addiction has as much to do with the kind people here as with the game itself. :)
Well, I think it's time for me to get to bed. My grid looks so pretty... all the outside shaded and the c in the middle. Goodnight everyone and thanks for all your help.
Same here, sprite...have a wonderful day.
I think you should get extra points for that achievement, hugs! Good night to you, see you tomorrow :D
good nite girls.... I am still stuck on the c 8 but will continue until I get it nailed
Night hugs...my grid looks more like a bingo player losing her shirt, but there's always hope! Sweet dreams/good day...
Night Blaze! Best of luck finishing!
Got it now... i do have 50 words left for tomorrow...nite all and the good day for those on the other side of the pond.

Yes! Been here for about half an hour..........what a struggle.

Have you guys finished the As? If so can you post the list? I am having a terrible time with them.
I'm still missing 2 As but the ones I have are a5/14, a4/6, a5/14, a4/4, a5/10, a4/6, a6/18. do you have any others?

no way !!!! struggling with 50 left had enough for now !!!
blaze - one is to do with spots, afraid i don't hace a clue for the other.
me too - brain's fried & i must do something i was meant to do today - hopefully see you later?
Blaze - if you have the A7 just fiddle wth the 5th letter of that word. I'm still hunting the 2 As after the A7 (the spots are over my eyes).
diane - skin condition - usually affecting teens
Zoom - I am now feeling totally stupid - how did I not see those 2 words? DUH!
i know the feeling only too well!!!
taking a break now, don't finish too quickly dianne, i know i'll need lots of help when i come back - good luck!
Did you get both K words? I only have one - Ki4/8.
Movieman has returned having had a looooooong rest after yesterday's marathon, anyway, to cut a long story short, could ne of u kind folks give me assistance with the 7's and 8's? I am forever in your debt... Muchos gracias...
Dianne - the other k sounds like a boy's name...
movieman - M7 and M8 - small winter "transportation".
dianne, they're both ki 4/8s - one sounds like a boy's name, the other's a sign of affection.
movieman - Mr. Kringle and I both thank you.
Movieman has returned having had a looooooong rest after yesterday's marathon, anyway, to cut a long story short, could ne of u kind folks give me assistance with the 7's and 8's? I am forever in your debt... Muchos gracias...

Good Morning! Lot's of 8's today!
Eve,it`s an in4/
aimzee short of writing the words out in full for you which would spoil it for everybody the best thing you can do is google a2z and look for your words there!
Macadam, thanks. I was mixing the clues up and looking for the m8 with that description. Now I see the light! At least about the obi box, but not about the m8. Still stymied by that one. Any good clues?
afternoon peeps - this ones a bit like pulling teeth huh? all those i's, all those n's, but somebody has hidden the g!!!
Tiny sliders for feet in the snow
DUH! I already had that one. I guess I have all the 8's and just didn't know it. Time for a bath and to move this very creaky body. Plus the cat is going to bite me if I don't feed him.
Eva head for the bathroom quickly and avoid those sharp little teeth.Relax-aaaah.
right, can anyone help with my missing i? i have: 4/4x2 4/6 4/8 6/24 7/36
how many words again?
Have him on a diet - I kept thinking he had just gotten fluffier (only a mother would be so blind), but the vet wasn't fooled. When he starts eyeing the computer mouse hungrily I know I'm in trouble.
Poor thing.I mean you.It`s hard to say no.

*straw sneaks in from nowhere* Hi Swimmy :) How are you??
first 7 should be se7/52
I'm fine. Happy to see a 'doable' grid today. I don't even bother trying the whoppers as I have no chance/time to finish them.
This one's a bit messy tho :/ Some nasties lurking about...
lol, I put yours right next to you honey! Hi swmbo :)
what? i have all the 7's and the only se7 is the one i've listed . . .
The m is the only 7 with 52 points.
my apologies, got my scribbles mixed, it is 7/28....
no prob . . . if you want to cleanse your palate, check this out: http://www.worldbeardchampions hips.com :-)
is there something online that works all these out?
Oh my! There is a beard team usa.....
hmmmm.. only 37/294 atm
104/1462 .... concede defeat! good nite
lol!!!!
Ohnoooo, they're coming to Brighton in 2007. I'm not sure the locals take to the hirsute down there lol
Une - thanx for the s list, it helped me enormously (another game completed!!!!!!!). By the way, in case u haven't found that missing s, def. is Spanish term for mr. Muchos...
thanks movieman :)))
anj - dunno bout that - I once went out with a girl from Brighton, and her personal habits when it came to being unshaven went almost beyond the extreme! Makes me shudder even now to think about it!!
Having a problem with the i's, I have: ic7/36 in6/24 in4/4 in4/4 is4/6 Can anyone point me in the right direction?
i've got that one . . . must be something else . . .
could anyone give me a clue for the se7/28 please?
chris, you're missing an i6/18 :)
chris p- in6/18.
chris p maybe plural of a place to buy drink is one? old word for it.. used for some hotels now. if that helps
Lol Dachef. Nothing like bristles to spoil the moment
missing an sa5: sa5/10 se5/10 si5/10 sk5/22 sm5/2 sn5/10 so5/10 so5/14 so5/16 st5/14
i meant to say i'm missing an s5--not necessarily an sa5 . . .
are there two eo6/24s?
could anyone give me a clue for the se7/28 please?
Une, I have 2 x so5/10's. i think you are missing the plural of the last so4/4.
une I'm missing the same and rapidly going crackers,
that was it--thanks, lola! Bye, all!
Unie, I think it's another so5/10 and it's the plural of your last so4/4
Cheers Une, have fun :)
thankyou lola, do you need anything in return?
Thanks ferrari, still plodding thru' them, will shout later :)
just-jo / Lola - any clue on that in6/18 - blowed if I can see it!!
chris: it means to assert or demand something... hope this helps! :)
chrisp - in6/18 - to be very firm about something. would you have any idea on the i7?
Thanks Just- jo. I can't believe that worked! I really didn't think I could do that word. One more i to go - any clues?
zoom - i7 very cold
any clues on the i7 - i've read the posts about thinking cold etc & still don't get it! any clues for babble retards please?
zoom - ends with the ne4/4
DOH!! thanks chris - how blind am i?
Sorry chris p, thought you were only missing one! ir4/8.
Thanks lola - all i's now completed!
can anyone help with my final e? it's the en6/18. Pleeeease!!!!
thanks for the ir lola100
just-jo - can't give you a definition, i don't know it, but try a2zwordfinder
just-jo en6/18 is Greek for union
Don't worry zoom - been there, done that!
thanks for the wordfinder hint. I've been doing this the hard way for the past week!
*shakes head* I've got to learn to listen to that little voice that says 'are you sure you entered that word earlier?'
artlady, you're a nobler animal than me - i need all the help i can get!!
thankyou ferrari :) any clues for the se7/28?
had several of those today anj. just an r6 from the bottom left to go
I'm done, but it doesn't feel like a result :/ I think the competitor in me wants a 500 plus words monster to get his teeth inti lol :)
result, I'm on a roll; 122/5.05/1883. does anyone need a clue cos my exercise bike calls, it's either that or the ironing . lol
Know what you mean Anj. You really earn those *woohoo, I'm finished* yells when it's a biggie :)
bottom left r6 .. italian composer i think?
zoom,not nobler, just inefficient!
I know what you mean Anj, got to wait until tomorrow now boo hoo.lol
ferrari is it the stuff they put on violin bows
macadam yes it is
Good one.Now you can ride your bike .With music I hope.
macadam last night's SG1, Jack O'Neill then an episode of Hustle I' never seen lol
no one tried writing a babble solver yet? i guess the dictionary for it would be a problem??
and yes :) i know that defeats the whole object :) sorry
My hubby wrote a Babble solver (Babble uses the "Enable" dictionary) but I refuse to use it :)
bodkinz - a bit like sudoku solvers as well.
I mean, where would I get my daily dose of frustration and angst from if I did?
sudoku i am good at without a solver.. but dictionary stuff.. nah :) sudoku i am good at as long as it doesnt involve tabling and x and y thingies
since I found babble sudoku seems very boring got to go, bye bye all, happy babbling lol
Sudoku is just finding its way over to this side of the pond -- my hubby has started doing it. I prefer Babbling though :)
lol Lola, ferrari... this one is more of a polite handshake than a full on chequered flag, chest-beating accomplishment :)
sproing.. yes.. it is good till you get to your limit for that puzzle.. then it is like.. i can do most... and i can't get any further... but with babble you get hints and clues
Ferrari,I`ll join you.
damn.. i'm drinking and got work in 6 hours.. ouch
Am now being dragged away from Babble by hubby who in6 s that I go on a bike ride with him. T'ra for now!
Oh Loooolaaaaaa :) You ok babe??
the only Sudoku I do these days is the biggie in Saturday's Independent, haven't managed to win anything yet though
Yeah, fine babe! Been surfing a bit..... left you a message at last :)
I've just noticed lol. Is the LastFM site looking OK to you? Mine is just a text version which is weird to navigate...
sudoku only held my interest for around 1 month... babble i think will hold my attention for a lot longer.. maybe i should register... the stats seem like a good way to go futher :)
Looks okay to me but did keep freezing on me earlier.
Yes, register. There's a young man whose mother would like him to earn more money out there....
Mine is looking distinctly unwell. I've managed to force-load the GUI but the formatting is all wrong. I can't even get to my messages at the mo :/
bodkins- it's well worth the very low life time subscription fee and Dr God does a wonderful job of keeping us all happy :)
Oh dear! I was about to go and try the radio again but maybe I should wait 'til the site feels better lol!
any clues for that t 8, I have 3 to go and that is one of them
Anj, when I clicked on the radio (okay, I couldn't wait!) I got a message telling me it wouldn't be working 'til tuesday as they are moving the streaming system server by car from Vienna to London!!!! Could that be causing your gliches?
ok i just regged :)))
I have 3 to go. 1 is the t 8 and 2 r's, not sure which. Willing to trade...
jax, for the ti8 think small and the loch **** monster :)
Lola, no I checked out the forum. There's a problem with the weekly charts generation programme interfering with the static server. It will clear up once the charts have run for the 800,000 plus users (lol) The radio is off-line until the streaming server gets in from Vienna
ri 4 6 ro 4 4 ro 4 4 ro 5 10 ro 8 40 ro 6 18 ro 6 27
Lola - thanks. I am such a dolt. I was looking for my message, didn't think it posted and realized I was looking at the prev 50! lol
hello everyone.....am here...but in and out whilst doing 'housey' things !!!
Karys, what like doing a loft conversion lol ?? :) Welcome to Sunday *maniacal laughter*
Go bodkinz!!! Welcome to the babble club, hope you said goodbye to your life!
Thanks Lola - Done! Can I help anyone?
Hi karys :)
You're welcome jax :)
ri 4/6 to do with wheels

lol lola i have no life ;p (work, sleep and computer online) less of the sleep... work is only as long as it takes to finish the job
now i just gotta sort out an icon for myself.. hmmm
Karys, careful...we have two birthdays next week so you might be asked to bake a cake lol Lola, that chart prog isn't getting enough processing juice which is why the site is mostly plain text. Will get to your message later babe ;)
good 4 you bodkins...it makes the log so much more colorful!
http://datorn.e.kth.se/wm-icon s/index-48x48.html nice site.. but huge.. soooo many 48x48 icons
ok done ;p i am an 8ball ;p
I have all the o's except the one that originates from the top left hand corner. Any clue would be helpful, even the # of letters...
swbo- I think it's what you find in the desert?
o5 - a desert island, a place of peace and tranquility
water place in the desert
Anj, no worries babe, just asking you about music, nothing urgent :)
lola: thvm!!! Sometimes you can't see the forest for the trees!
Can anyone please help with the o's? I need one more. I have oa 5 10 on 4 4 or 5 10 os 6 24 os 7 36 os 8 50 os 4 4
You're welcome swmbo :)

Artlady, you answered that one yourself lol Think of another word for help :)
Yeah Anj, me too! They came on the scene after I left SA and I've only discovered them recently. Think I may be doing some long distance purchasing soon.....
ANj, thank you. I kept going at it from the wrong direction.
the as 6/18 to help
nice bodkins. one of my favorite artists did a work called "Something on the 8 Ball"--Stuart Davis.
thank you kindly artlady :)
Prego
Husband just moaning at the loss of daily sudoku! Babble wins........
babble wins here too... daily sudkoku only lasted a few weeks... can't even remeber who pointed me in this direction
...help?
What's wrong Anj?
could somebody please repost a list of m's and s's? i've just returned to today's puzzle after a much-needed break, and my computer is being stubborn and slow!!
Weird, log isn't posting... :/ Lola, Djangomusic.com is a good site if Amazaon don't have a cd, i've found :)
Im missing 1 x t and 1 x k. I have 3 x t4, and the k word that Anj and Lola keep passing over the log. Anybody help?
just-jo, I think Dr God might be fiddling behind the scenes as my message log just went tilt. Dachef, it's a kr4/8 that's a wavy dagger and sounds like a name :)
dachef the lip to lip one or the name one?
my name with a k instead of a ch ;p
shortened Christian or christopher with a k instead of a ch
Thanks babe, will go and check it out :)
cheers ladies and germs, got the k - just one last t to find......
Still have none of the 8s. Any chance of first two letters PLEASE..............
the stats for the t one dachef???
Hi again everyone. Back for more...again...
os is one alleyn
I'm missing one - I have ti4/6 ti4/4 ti4/7 any clues would be much appreciated. Im always willing to do swopsies but my clues are notoriously obscure!!!
Charliesmom... Hi!
blood suckers, can and small are the clues for those 3 dachef
Dachef, it's a ti8/40 - this is a very small clue :)
dachef, a Ti8/70 meaning smallest
i apologise .. am a little tiddly here.. excuse me
cheers guys - aaaaaand, I'm done - 122 words. Now what on earth am I gonna do for the rest of the day? Really should've strung that one out a bit longer....
Well done Dachef ...
hmm 43 words here.. lol.. but if i can help anyone i will
Any clues for the os/7 my last O please
Im having no luck with this small clue for the ti! Tiniest isnt there... Im stumped - brain freeze today
It's the quality of being tiny that you're looking for.
8s to go: ca8/50 - places to bet/gamble with an extra S mi8/70 - what a Cooper S would use to do winter sports os8/50 - songbirds - google 'passerine bird having specialized vocal apparatus' ro8/40 - colour in the cheeks? like a flower... ti8/40 - extremely small
first 4 are right
granadan, it's the state or property of being very small ...
davetins - plural of your os7/36
Thanks Haz... got it
anj thanks :)
I think we're all suffering from a 'Babble Hangover' after the monster yesterday. After a while your brain simply rebels.....
Thanks Anj, was looking for that ca8 for ages!
Dachef, That's the one I'm looking for???
Hey, it's what we do lol :) Hi Miyavi, the Babbletrix definately has you, doesn't it? lol
yup, anj...in it's stranglehold. I think it wanted some fresh young blood
hmmm a cooper makes barrels?
davetins - soz dude, getting confused. the os7/36 is a seabrid. Add on your ci4/6 and you should get it.
dachef thanks, got it
Bodkinz, I meant the car lol My grandfather was a cooper by trade :)
thanks for the '8's Anj.....brilliant clues !!
Good morning everyone? Or everyone who survived yesterday's puzzle...
Anj youre an angel.
Hi Everyone! Hey, did you find that the grid just looks normal now, that you're so completely used to it?
Hi Jera ..just about awake now :)
lol, Jera! Babble seems to be a lot more dangerous now I've started playing...much more flying food missiles. I hereby apologize for disturbing the peace!
That's okay... when the food starts flying, I just take a flashlight intot he closet & keep looking for words...
I still prefer the old tiles - but its better than the half and half job ;-)
(jumping up and down with joy) over halfway finished! and the day's not half over!
Anj - thank you! Got one and will stay working.........
Right, I must be going. See you all tomorrow :)
Was it a stinker yesterday then? I didn't play coz was up in Manchester watching the Reds get humiliated!
could someone please post a full list of n's and a full list of s's??? thankyou!! :)
bye lola
yes alleyn got the bird too ? :)
Boysaway - just a tiny puzzle of 388 words!
See you tomorrow Lola
Did anyone finish it?
is there an no6 in there somewhere? if anyone has it, give me a clue?
I didn't have time to play yesterday either... it was tough resisting! The birthday party was a great success... Gwyd is officially 4 now!
pleeeeeeease could someone post a full list of n's and a full list of s's??? thankyou!! :)
I think about 30 people made it to the end ..
must be off now guys and gals - I have to pack - going to Albert Hall 2moro for the Ashes Presentation dinner (oo-er), and then off to Cyprus for a week on Tues. Lifes really tough at the mo. See you all next week - heres hoping theres no 350 word monsters while Im away!
'bye Lola , take care :)

Have a good week Dachef, sounds fun ...

Today's babble stats: 8 x 5 7 x 11 6 x 25 5 x 25 4 x 56 --- 122 words --- A -- 9 C -- 12 E -- 9 i -- 7 K -- 2 M -- 17 N -- 9 O -- 8 R -- 7 S -- 37 T -- 4 Y -- 1

Evening all, May not have been so many words today (thank goodness) but it's still taken a bit of doing.
got about 5 minutes to find 1 x mi5/14, 1 x mi5/22 & 1 x mu6/30 - can anyone help please?
got the mu6/30
mi5/14 plural of 4/6
mi5/22 plural of 4/10
thanks fmitch, don't know how i missed that one! any clues for the mi5/22?
thanks again, you're a lifesaver. my last word is an so5, i think. can you help again?
got that wrong, i think it's se6/18
darn and I had just typed such good clues for the so 5's
se6/18 plural of 5/10 perhaps?
Sorry, sorry (hangs head in shame!)
if not that one then how about a part of an alarm system
no, got that one. is there another or am i back to so words?
is there a simpler clue for a technophobe?
don't know much about alarm systems!
def: A device, such as a photoelectric cell, that receives and responds to a signal or stimulus.
um...anybody have an english translation for what FMitch just said?!
thanks, but you're working with only a tiny brain cell, am monkey typing frantically but getting nowhere!
zoom, one of the five se...... is touch
LOL Miavi I have to say that is the definition behind the word and not me being totally geekish
I Can't find the se5/10 and presumably its plural se6/18.....anyone help please ?
boysaway, you're magic! fmitch - very good clue, just a bit subtle for my tiny mind. Thnaks for everyone's help. my family'll be relieved to hear they're going to get fed after all!
karys - spanish word for MR.
Karys - think Spanish gentleman/men
can I ask for the complete list of "c"s? thanks in advance
Anyone feel like posting the 7 letter words with clues? (I have all the 8s) Thanks
FMitch....thank you....why can't I see the obvious ??
havn't even got 1 yet Boysaway
Correction...have 3.....can't see either....I have an 'o' and 2 's's...but you probably have them already

This game brings great pleasure and great pain (mainly from banging you head on the desk going Doh!!!!) thanks guys
good day all...hope all are well...
Hi Everyone... I'm back to finish up what I started.
Hi Hugs! I hate this grid. It's making me feel very stupid.
Hi Neil - I agree. The words are coming few and far between. I keep wanting to do seascape and escape, even though there's no P.
You should see my grid. I've got only the outside and the C shaded. It looks like a big O.
sfneil - I am glad you said that as it took me quite a while to day to finish this grid. Hi Hugs and Baggo
Hi baggo and Hugabugs - not so many as yesterday :)
Wow. That's way better than mine.
Hi Chessy - not so many... but much harder to find.
This grid is killin' me. And, its hard to concentrate when my Falcons are playing!!
hi fm, hi chessy,
I found the S's a nightmare!
keep wanting to put in mission and scion ...
FMitch, any chance you'd share a two-letter list of s's with us?
Is there an N list anywhere?
ixnay on the "c" list.. i found one already
That would be so appreciated.
Jo, there was one posted at 8:06 a.m.
I'll offer up a c list.
FIREWORKS! I just finished my first puzzle!! Now if only the Bears can win...my day will be complete!!
I'd really love that, Hugs!
Could I get hints for the st5/14 and the st6/24 please!
Way to go artlady - isn't it just a good feeling!
Congrats, Artlady!!
Sure will post the s's give me a mo
mickie, st5/14 describes someone who is indifferent to emotions
Got it, thanks Chessy.
Thanks, sfneil, you saved me again! You're my hero!
ty sfneil...great clue...just starting out late last night...kids put in my words for me...and head is a bit shattered at the moment...
S listing posted at 11.05 by Anj
Thanks to all for the great clues and posting the letters and points. I can't wait until tomorrow...oh, wait, I actually have to work tomorrow...less time for Babble...
Thanks, FMitch!
And the C's are: ca 4 6 ca 7 36 ca 6 24 ca 6 24 ca 7 36 ca 7 36 ca 8 50 ca 6 24 ci 4 6 ci 5 14 ci 4 6 ci 4 9
Have to do some housework, can't just babble all day:( Enjoy the rest of the weekend everyone!
And thanks, Hugs!!
ty fmitch...hows the weather in ca today sfneil?? my brother lives north or you in monte rio
thanks hugs... I'm done for the day
Another beautiful day here, baggo! We get our best weather around this time. Monte Rio is a lovely spot!
it's rainy here, feeling rita...yes i love where he lives..we are thinking of moving out there to be near him...he's so close to the ocean...i really love that area..and the city is awesome..
baggo, where are you again? memphis, was it?
Here is an "n" list ne 4 4 ni 4 6 ni 4 4 ni 5 10 ni 4 4 ni 4 4 no 4 4 no 6 18 no 4
no i'm in indianapolis..
oh, sorry... confused again!
Baggo, somehow ... Atlanta has managed to stay clear of the Rita rain.
does anyone have a clue for ca7/36 please - I have the 2 that are gambling dens ...
no prob sfneil...happens.. jo i'm glad cause katrina got you guys..
Hugabugs, thanks again!! C's are toast!
Chessy double up the second consonant in the gambling dens.
And don't forget the plural! ;)
I think most parts got a lucky. It could have been much worse, that's for sure. The governor has closed schools Mon and Tue in Georgia in order to conserve fuel and energy. Wild, huh?
Hi guys -- am trying to wrap up and trhe only C I've left is the ca6/24 appearing directly after the ca8/50. In what I'm sure will be a massive d'oh moment, can anyone provide a clue for it? Thank you!
I've got that one neil & the plural, must be missing another one?
ok, i gotta get off for a bit...thanks for the clues...i'll be back in a couple hours...to finish... 8-/
Babble is SO much better on RoadRunner! While evacuated from Galveston, I've been reduced to dial-up. YUK! Couldn't even post in chat log. All words doubled. Error message on every correct word. I tell you, it was miserable!
See you later Baggo!
Gwen, are you back now?? How did Galvestone take the storm?
melissamay, it's a blackcurrant drink, often added to white wine to make kir ...
wow jo, how odd...won't happen up here i'm sure...my daughter is scared though that when i leave next sunday one will come while i'm there...see ya hugabug
gwen, great to see that you are safe...roadrunner is the bomb isn't it!
oh yes Chessy ca7/36 "resembling cheese" (huh?) anyway, add a three-letter suffix to the ca4/6...
can anyone help with st5 /14 and I assume the st6 is related
Galveston was spared, thank God. We got power back late last night. I came home today.
Welcome back. Glad you and Galveston are safe!
Good to hear, Gwen!
Gwen, I just saw your profile. Love the description of your location!
sfneil - great, that did the trick, thanks:)
GingerUK, yes they are. Think "very indifferent" and pluralize.
no worries, Chessy! Glad to help
Chessy, thanks for the clue. I don't drink much so I'll have to ponder it!
thanks Jo :-)
st5/14 & st 6/24 one who is indifferent and free from passion (and plural)
melissamay, try googling :)
melissamay, the liqueur is often called "creme de ca6"
d'oh de google! Thanks guys. That was driving me much le mental.
And the S's are down. Just 2 i's and 5 a's to go.
can any one help with an A7?
Hi tri - I can't help as I don't have it yet either.
melissa may - think frame of a car, but drop second letter.
ok guys you know my clues can be a bit obscure but the a7 is an ac7/36
Bagged the S's at last!
ac plus a vowel and then the pointy thing in the middle of your face LOL
Downed the i's!
FMitch - thank you. That did it for me! Got it.
Off to get some coffee, then will come back and tackle the A's.
glad about that Hugs!
have the A's or I's been listed?
Hurry neil... I need 3 more A's!
sa5 /10 anyone? Please :-)
sa5/10 & sa6/18 The Indian antelope noted for its beauty and swiftness. It has long, spiral, divergent horns.
thanks for the help on the a7, another new word for me! Thats me finished!
or "hire a hit man" but drop the first letter
Well done trif!
Thank's Hugabugs
Glad to be of help! Is there an A list?
Have just realise that I have made it into the top 100 in the stats! *blowing my own trumpet v quietly here* lol does that make me a really sad devotee of babble?
I'd say it makes you a great Babble Pro! ;o)
ah but not at the dizzy heights you are at!
'A' list was posted at 7:20 a.m.
Thanks Chessy!
would like an 'r' list if at all poss?
Rolling out the R's ri 4 6 ro 4 4 ro 4 4 ro 5 10 ro 8 40 ro 6 18 ro 6 27

Clues please for the eo 6/24 and eo 7/36
welcome back Neil.
Have I mentioned yet that I HATE this grid?
Thanks, Hugabugs, did you finish the A's?
eo plus a letter plus is/46
Hugabugs- in some ways I am glad I missed it then - only ever have time for an hour or so Babbling and the big ones like that put you off
is4/6 i mean
sfneil -is it that bad - I have only just started !
Umm... you've mentioned it a few times now Neil. Yep... all done for today.
Thanks yet again plurple :)
CATHB it may not be bad for you, but I think it's giving me an aneurysm!
Interestingly, the eo6 & eo7 is in regard to the original transvestite
We don't want that Neil.
No, Hugs. No we don't.
no prob Boys ttyl guys.
See ya plurple
So long plurple! Ugh. How can there be an in4 that I can't see??
Sfneil think boozers!!!
I have that one, mo... but isn't there another?
neil - A small, usually ornamented box that is hung from the waist sash of a Japanese kimono
boozers??? do you have the ornamental box worn on an obi?
sorry I havent got that either!
Thank you, Hugabugs... one I left to go!
try the start of a musical piece minus a letter sfneil
that in4 reminds me of the old nursery rhyme Mary Mary
Could someone let me know what I is missing? Thanks! in6/24 in4/4 in4/4 in 6/18 ir4/8 (and curse this stupid grid!)
Just completely baffled by the ae words - help!
is4/6
Boysaway they all have to do with a very long period of time. Also spelled starting with 'e'
ae words - think neverending time.
sfneil, head slapping time! Thanks
oh sorry, i left that off somehow. I also have is4/6, but still missing one i!
Neil, do you have the ic7/36?
No Hugs, but thanks!! Will go track it down.
It's indiginous to my area! ;o)
Got him, Hugs! Thanks again!
Anytime Neil! :o)
Hah! Take that, Rs!!
What do you have left Neil?
any clues for the ac7/36 please
Hi All - any clues on the in 6/18?
Hugs, a lot! I have 1 n, 9 ms, 6 os and 2 ts left to find!!
See FMitch's clue at 1:45
spellit - when you demand something from someone
Neil - that's not so bad.
Thanks, Hugs! Could you be a dear and point me toward my missing n? ne4/4 ni4/6 ni4/4 ni5/10 n i4/4 ni4/4 no4/4 no4/4 Thanks !
Will do!
no 6/18 between your 2 no's
Neil - no6 The cognitive process; cognition.
Thank you both so much!! Pegged it!
The downside of finishing early. What do you do with your babble fix the rest of the day? Just came on to lurk. lol
jax - you are so right! Only another 9 hours to wait. ;o)
Starting in on the Os now... I will lick this d*** grid, yet!
please a clue for the ac7/36
Great! I've finished. First time for ages. Unfortunately back to work tomorrow so unlikely to finish again until next week. Well, that's life!!! Have a good week.
ac 7/36 add to what's on your face + 1
Mo - See FMitch's clue at 1:45
mo - related to a small saclike division of a gland
hugs - so you get in first thing then new grid comes on? I have to wait until morning or after work. sigh
Linda0 thanks i will work on that
Jax thank you too
Jax - yeah... I've always been a nightowl. At this time, I'm not employed (working on that) so I can stay up pretty late.
Hugs - I would say 'lucky you' at least from a babble perspective but I'm sure you want to work too.
Jax - I was with a company for 21 years then they decided to reclassify the requirements for my position. I was no longer "qualified". They did give me an extensive package though and I'm on salary continuance.
Hugs, that just sucks.
Would someone take pity on a pood dial up user and post the stats?? Crashes my system to try to view all messages.
I was devastated. But now I try to look at it as an opportunity for a new beginning. Umm... anyone hiring?
Hugs - that is such a bummer, I have heard so many people have that same experience. I am glad they gave you a good package.
Hugs that's awful! Good luck to you!
What I'm really gonna miss is those 6 weeks of vacation a year!
uh, that would bee poor dial up user... Hugabugs, what do you do?
I've had my first summer off since high school. Right now I'm working with a career consultant putting all my stuff together. The company was nice enough to add that to my package.
Hugs - where are you in Canada? I am sorry to hear that you have corporate A** holes like we have in the US. What kind of work do you do?
I'm an Office Manager with extensive experience in accounting, all administrative aspects including payroll and benefits.
try teaching?you'd get the summers off. you can tell the state of the economy by how many Phd.'s are working in the local public schools.
Jax - I'm in Winnipeg, Manitoba
Well I don't know of any jobs, certainly not in Winnipeg! But I will let you know if I do (I'm in Michigan)
hehe... If i could get a green card, I'd be willing to relocate!
Ok I will keep that in mind, but then again Michigan has 2nd highest unemplyment in us right now so...
Ugh. One last t and I will be done with this vile grid! I have ti4/6, ti4/4 and ti4/7... what am I being blind about now?
I have a friend who just moved from Detroit to Las Vegas because of that (and to escape the winters.)
Neil - the wee ti8/40
sfneil - the same one that was my last t - an ti 8/40 related to being very small
Well folks my son is calling, apparently I'm supposed to have a life outside of babble so let me go see what that is...
See ya later Jax!
Well, that is an apt description of the condition of my brain!! Thanks so much you guys!! I'm done with this heinous grid!! Hurray!
So long, Jax! Thanks!
Congrats Neil... well done!
Thanks, Hugs!
So what do you have planned for the rest of your day?
Excellent sfneil, enjoy the rest of your day :)
I think I'll get some lunch, and then maybe walk out to the ocean... it's such a nice day here...
That sounds so nice!
Enjoy those sea breezes, I've just finished too. Wahay!
Thanks so much again to everyone who were so helpful today!
Congrats, Chessy! Good job!
Way to go Chessy! See you later Neil. Enjoy your day.
Greetings, fellow Babblers!
Thanks, Hugs! Good luck in your job hunt!
Thanx Hugs, good luck ...

Oh no... bye sfniel... sorry I missed you! But congrats on finishing already!

need help with my last A, ac5/14, I have the skin condition.
i am short of an e7/36 and a 6/18 ...help would be much appreciated thank you
mo - a/6/18 - to help
Periwinkle they are granulations or berries according to my dictionary
Mo e7/36 pl of E/6 24
oops periwinkle i have that one but i thought there was another eo7/36 sandypops
yeah there is a longer version of eo/5/10
ic
sandypops thanks for your help ....is there anything i can help you with?
yeah is there supposed to be a y word there?
I've tried numerous time to get to the stats - I am unable to do so due to my dial up connection- would someone PLEASE post them and not refer to where they are?
Hi Sweetie - here you go.. Today's babble stats: 8 x 5 7 x 11 6 x 25 5 x 25 4 x 56 --- 122 words --- A -- 9 C -- 12 E -- 9 i -- 7 K -- 2 M -- 17 N -- 9 O -- 8 R -- 7 S -- 37 T -- 4 Y -- 1
There is a y word - y4/7
Oh Moozey - thanks a MILLION darling!
you are welcome, how you doing and how is G doing too?
got the y word fanx everso
is there more than one e/24
Oh, he is doing fabulousy well! I am beginning to feel the events that have happened - oh, and Mark's grandmother passed yesterday morning. The stress has begun to show it's toll - I'll be okay though.
sandypops there is a y4/7 .. cant find a meaning but i think its a Scottish word ...and its plural
I am sooo sorry to hear about Mark's Grandmother but at least she passed on knowing that G was well and improving in leaps and bounds. You take care of yourself YOU are important too.
There are 2 e/24's
the e/6/24 I have cannot be made plural in this grid :(
the e/6/24 I have means to enclose may I have a hint for the other please?
im looking for the 2nd ca6/24 any help please.
still working on the a/5 - berries or granulations, cannot figure out the ending. Am I dense?
Gotta tell you Moozey - all that has happened in the past month gives new meaning to the phrase, "when it rains it pours"... at least as far as I am concerned.
periwinkle the other one is transvestism and is an eo6
eo7/36 is the plural of it
finallly got the ac/5. was lookin in the wrong direction :)
well you have had an amazingly trying time the past month and you have managed to get through it. It certainly has made me think and put things into perspective.
Going nuts here over the in4/4 (not the pubs) and the in6/18! Any help appreciated
12 words to go... I'm looking for a K next, I have pucker!!
spellit - if you will in**** I will give you a clue
I've had a hard time - and have questioned why I have been unable to cry - I realised today speaking with Jona (the woman who cared for Graham before the ambulance arrived) that I am unable to cry because so many others shed tears FOR me. All of my friends, all of the support (YOU included) have gotten me through. I am a very lucky woman.
definitely blessed on many counts
You have pucker, you need Mr. Christmas

periwinkel....sorry I mistyped the mi word and yes there is an mi 4/8 not about skirts....my sincerest apologies
buzzy - the 4th t is a ti 8, it relates to being very small

(I got it from much monkey typing)
katmayo - please don't ever post words that are in the grid!
signing off -- g'night all!
Thank you Doogle for you kind post.
This is only my 2nd day playing and have not read all the rules---Heil Doogle! goodnight
katmayo - Hey, I'm just asking you to not list words that are in the grid. Not meaning to be mean or anything, but I think you realize that the rest of us are trying to figure the words out. Hokay?
Perhaps a kinder and gentler posting would have been more appropo... sometimes there are new people who may not realize the rules, or are so caught up in the game they type it in error. To err is human...
I apologize for the ruffling of feathers. I thought that by using "please" I was not being blatantly impolite. No rudeness was intended.
I'm going blind and just can't see most of the se's. I have the spanish mister, the deep blues, the detection machine (s). Could some kind soul spare a few clues?
good evening all, just back to finish up? were o's posted earlier...stumpin me tonight..
hi doogle..
Heya Baggo. How are ya?
good and u?
Quite well, thanks. Been to the horse races, seen the Seldom Scene, had breakfast in bed in a Bavarian-style chalet, and did most of my Xmas shopping. An atypically busy weekend for me! Seems kind of surreal when I write it all down...
well how great is that...i worked, went to a 6 course french meal, drank way too much, grocery shopping..gto extremely wet in the rain from rita...not near as fun as you, nor as impressive when written down... 8-/
The eating and drinking certainly sounds good! :)
ooooh it was wonderful! the dranking fun until i woke up and had 3 kids to take care of..that are usually so quiet until my head hurts...patience patience patience...love the eye by the way...
s/b drinking...dranking...sounds like babble word for sure...
anyone know the total points or have all of the s6's..missing one and it's my last word...
here is what i have... se6/18 x2 sm6/36 so6/24 st6/24 su 6/30
Wish I could help you, Baggo... :(
thanks doogle...i'll keep at it...8-/
Same here. I'm missing the same one along with a lot of e's. For e's I've only got ea4/4,eo4/4 and en6/24. Can either of you help?
here is my full list of e's..(easier that way) ea 4 4 en 6 24 en 6 18 eo 6 24 eo 7 36 eo 4 4 eo 5 10 eo 7 36 eo 6 18
Thanks baggo! Everyone else must be asleep. Good idea.
you're very welcome eve...
Baggo, This is what I was able to piece together from lola and anj's posts earlier. sa6/18 se6/18 se6/ 18 se6/18 sm6/36 so6/24 st 6/24 su6/30
ty brandyjack...i just found anj's earlier post of the ss's i have the sa one, it's an se18, that i shall begin noodling for...ty ty again...;)
baggo, Am I right that you are missing one of the se6/18's? I have 2 of them. One is an electronic detection device and the other is the plural of males south of the border. Can I trade you for the sa6/18 which is what I am missing?
now which border might we be talking about............
oops- sorry for the vagueness - the North American border.
Sa6 is plural of the sa5/10
yes, and wouldn't it be lovely if I had that sa5, but I've struck out terribly with the sa's tonight. I keep wanting to find sasquatch, or however you spell it, and hallucinating things which don't exist anywhere in the puzzle, let alone the universe.
Just a few minutes and then I'm going to hang it up. I'm not going to finish anyway.
members of the clan of hashishan, with some missing pieces
eve, teh sa5 and sa6 are antelopes..(def) but think of a smart mouthed child with only one consonant in the middle.. blaze did you just come on cause your icon just changed...
Yes, Blaze - we do monitor your icon for change. It's how we keep tabs on you. ;)
and you know doogle, with that eye staring at me..it lets me know you're watching...brandyjack you went back to your old one too... 8-/
I have k4/8 could I have a clue for the other k please
they are both k 4/8 one is a symbol of affection the other is Santa's first name
Kr4/8 Sikhe (sp?) ceremonial sword
Thank you, I got it.
I think I go that missing se6/18 when I fat-fingered another word... Braided cordage formed by plaiting several strands of rope fiber or similar material. Plaited straw, grass, or palm leaves for making hats.
Thank you all! Finally got the 2 sa's!! Couldn't find the antelopes in google, but the clan of hashishan kept haunting me and suddenly AHA! Now I can go to sleep.
Going to sleep thinking of that clan is not a very settling thing.....
Hi everyone! I'm missing the first se 6/18 that can be expanded to an se 7/28. May I have a clue?
How many se 6/18's are there?
May I have a hint for the r8 please
cadfan there are a total of 3 se/18
There seem to be 3 -- I have one for Spanish gentleman and the other for electronic device.
3. The one I just found, the spanish male pronoun, and some elecetronic device.
Thinking of hashish, on the other hand, is indeed soporific. I began to look for other words and slapped myself upside the head with a stern NO. This is just terrible for the neck, shoulders, back. I need a masseuse after I play.
Oh, duh, yes, I have 3
Ah brandyjack, I see your posting right below for my missing se6! Nevermind, then :)
calicomo, think of what could be said about one's cheeks after playing out in the cold...
calicomo, think of an adjective for the color of the sky at dawn.
Actually a noun that describes the quality or state of being that adjective. I know... picky Doogle. :)
doogle, you nail me everytime....lol
Very right - I knew something was wrong but couldn't think of how to say it. Many, many years since grammar classes.
Goodnight.
night eva..
Got it thank you. That's all the r's
I've passed 1000 so I can go sleep now. Good nite all. Thank you for the help.....
doogle, total points...1883
That implies completion, Baggo. Congrats! Me, I'm a-slogging. :-|
yeah finished up...need any help?
baggo, I could use some help getting the first ac5/14 -- the clue berries or granulations was posted earlier but I still can't find it. Thanks!
melissamay...how about this... one of the small sacs or saclike dilations in a compound gland
baggo, thanks very much for sticking around to help me find that!
And... done. Whew. This one was unusually tough for its size. G'night all.
Can't get that ac word (sac)... how does it end?? I can't make -us reach...
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
ty... also need that long t, please... no est to end like I thought at first...
Jera: it ends with the feature in the middle of your face.
Jera: synonym for smallness.
I can't believe I can't find those middle 2 lettlers...
jera what are you looking for?
The long ti... can't hook up beginning & ending...
Jera - think the most wee of scottish lakes... ;)
ti plus a letter plus last five of ro8/40
jera think of bubbles in your wine
You're very kind to think I have ro8/40, LOL!
the quality or state of ones cheeks after being out in the cold...(ro/8)...how's that doogle?
hahaha okay... hmm.. it uses the 2nd to last row, all letters except O an N from the last row, and an E S S from some other rows.
you have 5 minutes, GO!
Or how about a type of foil, a woman's name, and an extra sibilant at the end.
ty plurple, I was trying to end with nose... no wonder it wasn't working!
doogle should've known you'd do it better...lol
Both words use the same ending. Think teeny and pinky.
hahah no problem Coco!
Truly pathetic today... I wasn't feeling well & slept this afternoon...
ha. The nose bit was part of mab's clue for the a7. I was wondering if those 2 clues would get mixed up.
nose goes with your ac. Add vowel before it.
now get the ro8/40! same last 5 letters
jera, but you know the good thing is that a new one starts in a few...8-/
Waiting in line for the new grid to appear... :) Morning all!
hello sprite....get in line....not sure who's first
Hi Sprite. There's a line now?? You will be served when your number is called. :)
baggo - not a few, in 1!
Yeah, but I probably lost my top 100 spot... been hanging on by my toes for a while...
