5:32 am

Eva

I've been searching and searching for the wi & ey 10's. I'm assuming that they are compounds-the wi probably the liquor and the eu the vision thing, but am blind to them.

5:35 am

Kateq

eva, there is no ey 10--there's an ey 8 + 9

5:35 am

Eva

okaythen. Il

5:36 am

Eva

I'll settle for those(':

5:36 am

Kateq

think cosmetics

5:37 am

Eva

that's-that gave me the 8!

5:37 am

Kateq

and the wi 10 = the coldest, builds on wi 6

5:37 am

Kateq

ey 9 is plural

5:38 am

Eva

thanks kate! Got them both now and the wi

5:39 am

herinfernallady

Hi Mitch, Ishult! Thanks for those clues, still woring on the li10, but got the others

5:49 am

Eva

so, about that li10......

5:50 am

Douglas

old-fashionedy word for think, suppose...

5:50 am

lshult

the only definition I can find for the li10, is a plural of a type of diarrhea.

5:50 am

FMitch

li10 = li +e5/10 + 3 letter ending - can't think of anyproper clues sorry.

5:50 am

lshult

well you did ask!!

5:51 am

FMitch

Babble is always a learning experience some yuckier than others :)

5:52 am

Douglas

nyet on viet...as a dictionary word that is

5:57 am

Eva

don't mind the yuckiness-just that I can't figure itout. Have a vague memory of a kind of bacteria that sounds like the wi purple vine, and I think that's probably what this is, but can't get the spelling down. Is the es5/10 the chemical one?

5:58 am

FMitch

e5 - to go in :)

5:58 am

GraceM

ah, found the li10! Starts with an untruth and ends with an alt spelling of the opposite of exits.

Uneaixoise

it's the french word for outfits

8:27 am

8:27 am

stidmama

leighprefect

Morn mama

8:46 am

stidmama

hello leigh -- doing okay?

8:46 am

rolin

ya know...peanut butter is something i never got into...praps it was cos i worked at a bulk foods shop as a kid..and had to serve it out of vats...

8:47 am

TheFiz

gee leigh - don't know about you - but I sure could go for a story....

8:47 am

stidmama

well, as a young child, we lived next to a peanut farm in South Carolina. I used to pull the plants out of the ground to get to the raw peanuts.

8:48 am

leighprefect

Well enough, I suppose. My mother just called, very upset, and asked me to go down to the body shop where they are keeping my sister's car and to dispose of it because the insurance company does not want to look at it. I don't know if she was upset about that, or something else....but being 600 miles away, it's a bit difficult to stay in the loop!

8:48 am

TheFiz

*mouth waters at thought of anything peanut-related - vats included*

8:48 am

stidmama

Oh Fiz! I don't have the time to give the story justice right now. I promise to come on later and do it, though1

8:48 am

TheFiz

I'm kidding - I don't have time to give the story its due attention, either - just a few minutes to get a start on the list!

8:49 am

stidmama

oh leigh -- I am so sorry. didn't realize your sister had been in an accident. Hope she is okay at least.

8:49 am

leighprefect

Fiz- You're more than welcome to listen to the story when mama is willing to tell it. I have to go shower and get myself together and go take care of this silly car business.

8:49 am

TheFiz

Leigh, that sound awful - is your sister ok?

8:49 am

rolin

hmmm...dunno fiz...when ya bending in from the waist over this huge tub of peanut butter.,,,scooping it into a jar....tended to lose its appeal for me..lol

8:49 am

featherbee

hi stid!

8:49 am

featherbee

oh no leigh

8:49 am

TheFiz

*mouth still watering*

8:50 am

stidmama

hi feather! *tosses some spanish peanuts at Fiz*

8:50 am

rolin

lol..youre a hopeless case then fiz...

8:50 am

lizbethem

funster should be a word

8:50 am

featherbee

i'm in and out...laptop on the couch cushions, i'm helping daniel with puzzles

8:51 am

leighprefect

Oh yes. This was a few weeks ago. My brother and dog were in the car with her. All were shaken, but okay. It was all her fault and she was careless. My relationship with my sister is.....strained, at best, and this was the proverbial nail in the coffin with that. Take your life into your own hands, but involve my dog, and more importantly, my brother, and I've nearly a mind to beat the bloody pulp out of her.

8:51 am

featherbee

how old is she leigh?

8:51 am

TheFiz

*mouth full of sticky peanut* my sifter ish a terrible driver but has somehow avoided serioush accidents thus far...knock wood!

8:51 am

stidmama

I am so sorry about that leigh. Still, "shaken but okay" is the important part.

8:52 am

rolin

feather...creating a new babbler?

8:52 am

esquian

what's today's theme? retro candy?

8:52 am

leighprefect

19. Yes, they were all very lucky. I should take pictures of my brother's clothes he was wearing that day. He was the one that suffered the impact. The glass from the window shattered all over him. My mother washed his clothes and they came out looking like swiss cheese gone extra swiss.

8:53 am

TheFiz

Leigh I'm really sorry. That's not the kind of thing anyone wants to go through, and it certainly doesn't sound like it's helped family tensions at all....

8:53 am

Anniebrook

rolin, i think daniel has been giving feather clues

8:53 am

TheFiz

lol annie! yes, esquian - childhood candy, actually...

8:53 am

rolin

lol...hey...with 279...i wouldnt mind if he gave ME some clues..

8:53 am

stidmama

{{{leigh}}} that's the scary thing -- when you realize how very close things came to being worse...

8:54 am

leighprefect

Heh. I believe it has brought my mother and I closer and for that, I am happy. My sister is not the sharpest tool in the shed. *giggle*

8:54 am

Anniebrook

leigh, i am glad that everyone is okay....what a stressful time for everyone

8:54 am

stidmama

*pout* I want a helper, too! *stomps foot*

8:57 am

stidmama

Actually, Annie, we bought 6 disposable aluminum pie pans yesterday so we can make and freeze pies for the winter months... :-)

Boo for hiccups....

10:37 am

Flask1

Yes JFB abd Parsec....its a hard one today......but we do have a slight disadvantage ......in that it is based on an American dictionary!

10:37 am

Dorens

ha flask, not any american dictionary I've ever seen!!

10:37 am

Flask1

I waste a lot of time putting words in that ARE words...but not according to enable!

10:37 am

parsec

A *bad* American dictionary. =)

10:38 am

leighprefect

Flask- There are a number of french words in today's grid.

10:38 am

Flask1

Dorens....Enable is American!

10:39 am

Flask1

yes I have seen them too......

10:39 am

leighprefect

I believe Dorens means that there are some words that even most american dictionaries do not carry.

10:39 am

Dorens

yes, flask, so they say. but I've never seen it....and I work in a school....

10:39 am

leighprefect

rotl being one of them, I'm sure...

10:39 am

Well considering the guy that built the site is American it's not such a surprise I guess:)

10:54 am

Flask1

Hi Haz....its a hard one today!

10:54 am

Haz1558

I've just realised that Spangle the dog can also serve as an icon for candy (we had Spangle sweets many moons ago)

10:55 am

leighprefect

How are you today, Haz?

10:55 am

Flake bars, JeeWhiz, are flakes of choccie all stuck together in a bar. They make a lovely mess when you eat them. We stick 'em in the tops of icecream cornets, too, and call 'em '99s'.

11:15 am

TheFiz

stomach, hip, and shoulder...

2:13 pm

Miyavi_fan

2:16 pm

Nef

The problems with peircings is if you develop an allergy to metal (like *I* did) then if your ears end up scarred it won't show much

2:16 pm

leighprefect

*gags on dog stink*

2:16 pm

bleugirl2

the stigma is going away. there are 40,50, 60+ yr olds getting piercings and tats.

2:17 pm

TheFiz

i got my ears double pierced with my grandma when i was 12 and she was 75. we're going back this year for her 90th - but i don't have much room left.

2:17 pm

bleugirl2

i am allergic to everything it seems, but my jewelry hasn't caused problems. only if i try the cheap stuff. it can be a problem though.

2:17 pm

leighprefect

A boy's secret piercing is never going to be his belly button

2:17 pm

bleugirl2

that's awesome. my mom didn't get her ears pierced the first time til she was 39.

2:17 pm

TheFiz

leigh - can you febreeze the dog directly? (and is a girl's secret piercing ever going to be her belly button? )

2:17 pm

Miyavi_fan

I've let the holes in my ears close up, and I'd only really like a lip ring. It'd have to be a nice, dainty one though...XD

2:18 pm

oggy

fe8 is extended from fe4/7

2:18 pm

RocDragon

2:18 pm

featherbee

2:18 pm

bleugirl2

2:18 pm

Miyavi_fan

Leigh...knowing this guy, it really could be *blinks*

there are no boundaries with him...

2:18 pm

Babbler

My Mum's allergic to all metal except gold. When she was young, she had her ears pierced all the way up the sides. But she didn't know she could only wear gold and her ear swelled up. She's still got scars. : /

2:18 pm

TheFiz

miyavi, please send me pictures if you do it - i always wanted one and never did it, and i feel like i'm too old or whatever to do that now.

2:18 pm

leighprefect

LoL. I don't think that would get rid of new stench

2:18 pm

featherbee

2:18 pm

2:19 pm

onyx

2:19 pm

leighprefect

Shampoo will make him smell better, but not his butt

2:19 pm

wassup

2:19 pm

featherbee

there was a rumor about febreeze being harmful to animals...so much so that now febreeze has a thing on their bottles saying it's safe, which it is. check snopes.com

2:20 pm

ls1

yeah - and they even advertise that you can use it on dog bedding - dangerous

2:20 pm

leighprefect

Nef- Therefore, you wouldn't be my grandma, you'd be my mom!

2:20 pm

7:48 pm

7:53 pm

Jacula

I'm fed up with playing Boggle when I've finished Babble as I'm sure a lot of them use the cheat program. It just isn't possible to type in over 100 words in the time allowed.

7:54 pm

Jacula

And I really can't see the point in using the heat program. I mean, where's the challenge in that?

7:54 pm

featherbee

gah, help with the se5/10?

7:54 pm

mrpresident

I can't work out how they cheat! it would take too long to get the words up wouldn't it??

7:55 pm

Anniebrook

feather, se 5.10 a net or a french river

7:55 pm

featherbee

ty!

7:55 pm

Jacula

MrP. There is a cheat program and you just paste the grid into it as far as I can see. I've never used it though. Like I said, what would be the point?

7:55 pm

featherbee

i always miss that one

7:56 pm

Jacula

feather - I guess you also need the se6/18 to go with it? One who frequents that river?

7:56 pm

Jacula

Peri - stupidhead word - add a consonant to vi4/11.

7:58 pm

mrpresident

7:58 pm

featherbee

hmm, mo6/21, after the dash dot code?

7:58 pm

Jacula

I must be old-fashioned, MrP. The only way I like to see my name climbing up the rankings is by earning it.

8:12 pm

Jacula

beebee - close your eyes, think of a palm-fringed beach with white sands and hear the sound of the waves lapping on the shore. Take a deep breath and smell the sea air.... relax all your limbs and then open your eyes and look at the grid anew. (If the cat or the dog, or the kids, or the hubby haven't leapt on you by then.)

8:12 pm

Ping

Jacula

It was very nice. Paul and I are both on antibiotics now (he, because he trod on a Scorpion fish on the last day) and me because the pilot who took us there landed so steep and so fast he did my ears in + I have infected mossie bites. But, it was lovely really! LOL.

8:17 pm

Jacula

I'll go and find a relaxing pic for you all.

8:18 pm

mab

oh no! I'm glad the rest was nice, but it sounds like you need a vacation from your vacation to recover from your vacation. yes, yes, pics!

8:18 pm

8:21 pm

Can someone tell me, does the un 7 have anything to do with the un 5 before it?

8:23 pm

Jacula

The boat is 'Venus'. She took us to the island of Spinalonga (more on that when I do my travelog when I get Paul's parents' photos to add to ours). That sapphire sea is the Aegean Sea.

8:24 pm

featherbee

nope, nothing at all leigh. think metal

8:24 pm

emusing

8:24 pm

8:27 pm

Cathyar

reeses...mmmmmmmmmmmm

8:27 pm

Cathyar

clue for li10 pls?

8:28 pm

Jacula

leigh - the we's mostly have to do with pigs, sausages, a weird spelling of a cereal crop, going, and a compass point (+ a film with cowboys in it). Thrn there's what water does to you...

8:29 pm

leighprefect

Hmm...which of those are the first set of 6/30 and 7/44? =P

8:29 pm

Jacula

li10/70 is a most unpleasant word. It has to do with undigested food in faeces.:-( It's a medical term.

8:30 pm

featherbee

ok, i hate the vowels. have i mentioned that?
i'm going to cave and just ask for ones that are probably fish.
first in5/10?

8:30 pm

Nef

leigh, you want the weird spelling for hot dog +plural

8:30 pm

leighprefect

Cath- li + opposite of exit + a three letter plurual

8:30 pm

Jacula

Start with the legal term li4/4 and than add a word that sounds like towelling nappies (but take out a middle consonant).

8:31 pm

Nef

Feather, that's part of what I clued for jms

8:31 pm

leighprefect

Thanks Nef and Jac. I'm now done with this crazy grid. =)

8:31 pm

featherbee

the in******ing person? no, have that, i need the first one

8:31 pm

Nef

BTW, I admire you for getting an 13y/o boy hooked on word games

8:31 pm

Jacula

An unpleasant aside - I wonder why they don't cut the crap and call sweetcorn li10/70. SORRY!

8:32 pm

featherbee

lol jac!

8:32 pm

featherbee

heh, it was easy, i just showed him the site!

8:32 pm

Cathyar

fer sure have the first part of the li10, but the last 3 plural letters are killing me... medical term...must be a latin ending?

8:33 pm

leighprefect

Cath- Clued by Haz earlier as plural for the place where dead people lie.

8:34 pm

Jacula

Cathyar - the ending is like a long-running show, or a show of many parts that you might have been watching: a ser***.

8:34 pm

Cathyar

ahh...ty jacs

8:35 pm

Jacula

y/w, Cathyar.

8:36 pm

featherbee

8:37 pm

featherbee

Nef
