What worries me Douglas is why the world knows that he gave her a book of poetry ...
2:57 am
Douglas
It was in the Starr report, I think...
2:57 am
metaleather
what worries me more is the obsession with the sex life of a politician... as long as he gets/got the job done as relates to his office, his private life (as long as he didn't harm children/animals/the helpless etc. ) shouldn't be considered

We in NZ are pretty blase about that sort of stuff. But we have an interesting item at the moment of whether our PM's husband is gay or not, and why, if the rumour is true, he was escorted back from the US, and is the PM as well?
3:01 am
metaleather
he could be bi... or he could be her "beard" if she is also gay, or she could be straight and willing to accept his being gay ....

Any Lord Of The Rings fans out there? If so, go to www.bendshire.com They are building a shire type community in Bend, Oregon

Atalante
weeing. a lot. she normally goes 3 times a day, totally regularly. yesterday she went abotu 5 times then wee'd 2 times on the floor in the night which is *unheard* of for her. and she's off her food - even roast chicken!
3:21 am
Haz1558
It sounds like a bladder infection. Antibiotics will sort her out. But she loves going to the vets, doesn't she?!
3:22 am
Atalante
oh yeah! just *loves* it! actually, she's not tooo bad, we walk through the local cemetery to get down there and she gets to chase squirrels for a few minutes :)
3:22 am
mkl
Flask, did you find the ap7,36?
3:23 am
marso
morning all :) how many today?
3:23 am
Haz1558
Well, I hope she gets sorted out quickly. Puddles of piddle are not pleasant, never mind a doleful dog.
3:24 am
Atalante
tell me about it ... and doleful spaniels are heartrending. am going to phone vet any second for an appt
3:24 am
mkl
Gotta run. Night all.

Douglas
ee 4/6 is anuthr varient spellling
3:27 am
Haz1558
And is anuthr a variant spelling also?
3:27 am
Atalante
3:30 this afternoon. I love my vets
3:28 am
Haz1558
I suppose it's quicker to get an appointment with the vets than the doctors. People always seem surprised when I can give them an appointment for the morning clinic - provided there are spaces,that is.
3:29 am
Douglas
Is it just me, or do you think that Esteban guy who sells guitar lessons on TV is really named Steve Schwarzinsky?
3:30 am
Atalante
its still wonderful though being able to get an appt so quickly
3:31 am
ursh
i am stuck on the first re6/21 before the one that sounds like a blood group

3:36 am
Atalante
um Haz ... people might not want to read this for icky vet stuff ... is there any brilliant and clever way to get a urine sample from a spaniel? or is it as hit or miss as it sounds??? receptionist said to *try* and get one if possible ...
3:36 am
Haz1558
I take it you've mopped up the evidence from this morning?
3:37 am
Atalante
yes *sigh*
3:38 am
Haz1558
Then it is going to be hit and miss! As big a container as possible, watch her like a hawk and move in rapidly when she looks about to do something. She, and the neighbours, will think you've taken leave of your senses, but sure, it's all for a good cause. Good luck!
3:39 am
Atalante
LOL I assumed that that would be the case! Just wondered if the professionals knew any better!
3:40 am
Haz1558
No, I don't think there is any special way!
3:41 am
Atalante
*goes off to find a big container*

Morning All...glad to see a smaller grid today for time's sake.

Good morning, Odin. My thoughts this morning, as well.
3:43 am
Odin
Mornin' Haz. They were large for a couple of days and quite frankly my brain needs the rest!
3:45 am
Haz1558
I know! I've resolved to be good today as my kitchen cupboards need some attention. I'm having a visitor staying next week, and you know how they like to inspect kitchen cupboards.
3:45 am

I always knew those wide and shallow Lakeland plastic boxes would come in useful one day ...

3:47 am

Douglas
Isn't that the third one?
3:57 am
Haz1558
Sorry - I told you I can't count. Try an anagram of the torn up sh5/14

ch6/30 is a rather nasty burrowing flea, anike. Think Cuban guerilla leader Ch* *uevara then add 2 vowels. Whole word sounds like you are telling him to scram.
6:21 am

Jacula
anike - last 2 co words sre animals that look like giant guinea pigs.
6:47 am
Frances
anike
co5/20 is a large, South American, aquatic rodent + plural
6:48 am
hydra
Think of a three letter word for shy, then the sound you make when you smell a bad stink and hold your nose! (spelt differently)
6:49 am
Inge2
hmm... that would be capybara, but that's not a co. Must be a different word for the giant south american aquatic rodent in Britain.
6:49 am
Jacula
Anike - actually, the co's look like giant rats (aquatic beaver is another name for them). The capybara is the giant guinea pig. Sorry about that! Shouldn't try to clue and work at same time.:(

Bye Jac - see you tomorrow
7:00 am
Jacula
Frances - I like garlic but it doesn't like me. It lowers blood pressure and, since I have naturally low b/p, I have to be careful how much of it I ingest.
7:01 am
Jacula
Anyway, I'd better get some of these jobs done. See you all tomorrow.
7:01 am
Eva
Anne, are you lurking?
7:02 am

Manjqari, sp means it starts with the letters s and p- the first number is the number of letters in the word-- the second number is the total of the points. Add the points of the letters in the word. In a four letter word it is the total. In a five letter word it is multiplied by two, six letter word by 4, etc
