2:52 am

mkl

I'm here for support. Feeling a little lonely. Nobody need any help?

2:53 am

sprite

lol mkl!

2:54 am

sprite

Still missing 3x S, 2x D, T and R now... but don't know how to ask for clues because I am still 4s, 5s and 6s short.

2:56 am

mkl

The d's are de4,5 =de5,16 =de8,50 =dr4,7 =dr6,33 =dr5,16 =du4,6 =du4,6 = and du4,8

2:56 am

mkl

Too many s words to list like that.

2:56 am

Merk

I am in the la words now on my way through the alphabet. You can clue me if you recall an especially hard or tricky one coming up later.

2:56 am

sprite

wow, but thanks for the Ds!

2:57 am

sprite

okay, hand me the fish. Missing D in action was the Dr4/7 before the Dr6/33.

2:58 am

mkl

Yep. I listed them in order.

2:58 am

mkl

All three dr words are related

2:59 am

mkl

Well, if nobody needs any more clues I'm off for the night.

3:24 am

Andree

Angb

Not a list of full words Tricky ... just the first two letters and tile points - it saves total insanity

3:25 am

sherb

the list just gives the first two letters... the point is to save our sanity... :)

3:26 am

Andree

I would almost never finish without the list tricky

3:26 am

Angb

3:42 am

Andree

3:43 am

sherb

I thought I was doing well to find one ps7... don't know what the other one is...

3:44 am

4:44 am

TrickyRic

4:46 am

Flask1

it would seem that anything is possible with enable!

4:52 am

TrickyRic

hmm

4:52 am

TrickyRic

surely ni5,14 must contain the x to add up?

4:53 am

TrickyRic

i've tried every combination with no result

4:53 am

TrickyRic

no wait my mistake

4:53 am

TrickyRic

5,12 doesn't need it

4:53 am

Frances

Ric no it doesn't

4:54 am

Frances

Think of another way to spell does

4:55 am

TrickyRic

ah got it

5:00 am

Flask1

I think it quite a good grid in as much as there's not reams and reams of the same starter letters...i.e., 60 x ce...or 45 x du......its broken up better....anywone agree?

5:01 am

Frances

Totally Flask

5:02 am

So be sweet and kind to Mother now and then have a chat
Buy her candy or some flowers or a brand new hat

Than end up like old Oedipus Rex!!

8:19 am

mattygroves

Hey Smooth - great minds think alike. I actually think I like the film better than the source comic.

8:20 am

smooth_pappa

Have never seen the comic eiter. lol

8:20 am

smooth_pappa

but it was a really good movie

8:20 am

msree

8:22 am

msree

matty, the part I liked best about that scene with River, is when you see her tightening her grip to deal with the soldiers. I'm off to read your suggestion.

8:22 am

TrickyRic

mmm muffin 'n custard

8:23 am

mattygroves

That was super Ms. I should mention, I wrote the article you are about to read :D

8:27 am

Hi all, wonder if you have media arguments about animals and fireworks - every year at this time the same arguments arise - lots of Hindus live in and around Durban and Diwali just a week before Guy Fawkes - must say less fireworks every year - especially big bangs - same in your countries??

8:28 am

bonkler

i don't think animals should be allowed to light fireworks ;-)

8:29 am

mattygroves

Oh yeah - and always a spate of injuries.

8:31 am

smooth_pappa

actually our main celebration in my city is getting bigger and bigger: http://www.rhythmandbooms.com/index.ph
p

8:32 am

ursh

kids seem able to buy fireworks that are almost sticks of dynamite - also lots of injuries - arguments is fireworks should only be allowed at organised events - not at private homes

8:32 am

Dachef

I always get fireworks at home when i leave the toilet seat up.

8:33 am

ursh

yes Dachef that deserves serious fireworks

8:34 am

8:36 am

Angelsong

hi, everyone....yesterday was an awesome day

8:37 am

Douglas

I didn't get instrument and industry, but I wanted sultry to be in the grid, someone sultry with morals lower than their knickers...

Angelsong

8:39 am

Douglas

8:39 am

Charm

Uneaixoise

wow, angel, an amazing day indeed! :-)

8:41 am

msree

matty, you still around? Sorry it took so long to read the review, I got sidetracked by some toast. Nice review. I always enjoy hearing what sci-fi fans think of the film. I'm a Browncoat and have no objectivity whatsoever.

8:41 am

8:43 am

Charm

Hey Smiley

8:43 am

Angelsong

we spent the entire day together, and it was so good to have time to look back at where we've been and plan for the future. I loved buying the baby things. it's something I didn't get to do for my first grandchild, because of circumstances that I had no control over.

8:43 am

msree

Morning Smiley.

8:43 am

Angelsong

I bought a bassinnette, bottles, outlet covers, blankets...wonderful fun.

8:45 am

Charm

The best thing someone gave me when my son was born was an ice pack. It's shaped like a pig face, covered with fuzzy 'fur'. Keep in the freezer and put on boo-boos as needed.

9:03 am

bunnyvicious

On my first cup of coffee so can't think up a good clue, but the def for the te 7/36 is a yellow, crystalline, water-insoluble solid, C7H5N5O8, used as a chemical indicator and as a detonator and bursting charge in small-caliber shells (word reminds me of a te fish we have in the grid often).

9:04 am

72 Temple Owl

hi bunny...*thinks has she forgotten anyone*

9:04 am

mattygroves

Hey Jacula - I've had a look at your profile - I'm looking to get rid of a rather nice (though probably not extremely valuable) 1950s Mahogony dining table - would freecycle be the answer?

9:33 am

mattygroves

Cool icon by the way

9:33 am

Poor bonker! Not seeing st4/4s?

9:43 am

Dachef

Heres a discussion point: when was the last time we saw the letter "b"? Everything else comes up regularly, even the Q and Z, but the b seems to be MIA. Has Doctor God perhaps lost that one down the back of the sofa?

bunnyvicious

And I meant ICON!

9:45 am

Dachef

Over the Miami Dolphins

12:42 pm

Douglas

There is a Radio Shack commercial where a seated blindfolded man is identifying products as they bring them in his presence...

12:42 pm

stidmama

it's a shame I suppose, that I hate the colors of the Dolphins so much that I can never bring myself to root for them...

12:42 pm

Biltong

Could I have a clue for that in9, please?

12:42 pm

stidmama

except when they play against the Raiders. I am for any team that plays the Raiders.

12:43 pm

Douglas

They just showed a picture of that giant metal bean thingy in Chicago...

12:43 pm

Douglas

It's not industry, Biltong

12:43 pm

stidmama

the in 9 is plural the in 8 which looks like "obstinate" to me, but can't access the dictionary...

12:44 pm

Douglas

That doesn't help, does it?

12:44 pm

Biltong

no Douglas :(

12:45 pm

stidmama

the dictionary I finally got says "v.t. -- 1. to make hard, harden.... 3. obdurate"

12:45 pm

Eggcorn

12:50 pm

Biltong

hi jean

12:50 pm

Douglas

Now I feel just as sure as I'm sure that my name
Isn't Willow, titwillow, titwillow
That 'twas blighted affection that made him exclaim
"Oh, willow, titwillow, titwillow"
And if you remain callous and obdurate, I
Shall perish as he did, and you will know why
Though I probably shall not exclaim as I die
"Oh, willow, titwillow, titwillow"

12:51 pm

stidmama

hello jean!

12:51 pm

12:53 pm

metaleather

12:54 pm

metaleather

I can "rewrite" or "dress up" most anything... but to have to be the first to plop words on paper or screen... please, NO

12:55 pm

Eggcorn

I am writing about writers who write about the writers that participate in National Novel Writing Month, without being beaten.

Jacula

9:28 pm

Jacula

Kate - you might write an es5/14 for your English teacher.

9:29 pm

kristinc

no kidding jac! so bad now that my denist makes you pay the whole thing up front whether you have insurance or not

9:29 pm

Kate44

9:29 pm

Reese\'s

9:29 pm

Jacula

9:29 pm

Jacula

y/w, Kate.

9:30 pm

kristinc

yep, we're talking about getting a different dentist, at least one that takes insurance (not that that will make me want to go any more)

9:31 pm

Jacula

What time is it in USA now? *Prepares self for several different answers.* Is it still November 5th there?

9:33 pm

Jacula

y/w daisy. Hope the clue worked.

9:33 pm

kristinc

gotcha...not far at all from me
St. James is always a stop when we are giving tours to visitors since it is so pretty and has a great view of downtown!

9:34 pm

Reese\'s

hello zeekers, new face

9:34 pm

stidmama

I cancelled my last dentist appt because my dentist is dying and I don't transition well -- though I know he chose his replacement carefully and I have heard good things about him. *sigh* I dislike losing good friends to cancer...

9:35 pm

stidmama

hello zeekers!

9:35 pm

zeekers0102

hi. i play on and off. usually leave the talking to you guys though.

9:35 pm

tndaisy1960

oh Stid, I'm sorry :(

9:35 pm

kristinc

how sad stid!

9:35 pm

tndaisy1960

Jac, I found your Pres. clue:)

9:35 pm

stidmama

it happens. I need to learn to go with the flow better, but this feels really raw. My teeth can wait a few extra months!

9:36 pm

Jacula

stid - my dentist retired early and there's now 'a new broom' sweeping through his surgery. This new guy doesn't seem to believe in giving much in the way of treatment to his nhs patients.:(

9:36 pm

tndaisy1960

Stid, he's playing at his desk if you want to call.

9:36 pm

stidmama

okay, I have 56 words left to find. Need to buckle down or I won't finish (and I really want to finish today). Back as soon as I have a list...

9:37 pm

kristinc

57 here!

9:37 pm

Jacula

Stid - same thing has happened at my doctor's! My old GP retired because he couldn't cope with the computers and not being able to chat with or visit patients (and he is only 55). His partner (2 yrs' older than me) is still there, but he seems to be letting himself get swept along by the new brooms in there.

9:37 pm

stidmama

nonono daisy! the last thing I will do when I am stressed is make phone calls. *wry grin*

9:38 pm

stidmama

so sorry about that Jacula. Wish people were more aware how change affects others.

9:38 pm

Jacula

Me too, Stid, on both counts.

9:38 pm

tndaisy1960

ok :)

9:39 pm

Jacula

Can I help you with your missing words, stid?

9:39 pm

kristinc

how sad to loose such a caring physician jac!

9:39 pm

stidmama

I will let you know Jacula -- probably though! :-)

9:40 pm

tndaisy1960

done! and I can clue too, til he decides he's hungry

9:41 pm

stidmama

YAY daisy!

9:41 pm

Reese\'s

good bye everyone, time for some shut eye, going in early.

9:41 pm

tndaisy1960

was beginning to wonder if I'd finish, since he's not felt good and been on the couch for a big part of the day.

9:41 pm

Jacula

kristinc - Yes, I am sad to lose him. I didn't visit often but he was a friend as well as a GP do me. Years ago, he kept nagging me to have a tetanus booster because he knows I'm a gardener. I hate needles and he knew it! He turned up in my front garden one day, and I was out there gardening, and stabbed me with the booster! These days, he'd no doubt be struck off for assault or something. Back then, I thought it was a very ingenious (though sneaky) way of giving me what I needed.

9:42 pm

kristinc

bye reeces...have a great day tomorrow!

9:42 pm

Jacula

Well done, Daisy!

9:42 pm

Jacula

'Bye Reese's.

9:42 pm

stidmama

sweet dreams, Reese's!

9:42 pm

tndaisy1960

*bows* glad to be done with it in case I hvve to be busy elsewhere

9:43 pm

kristinc

Truly a good man then jac, though I'm sure it didn't seem like it at the time. Hopefully you'll still see him in other capacities.

9:44 pm

kristinc

ah! a word I loathe is in here...the ps4/5! The only word I loathe more is pfft!

9:44 pm

lbdawger

congrats to finishers, had to answer an email. dentists...i love mine, she's great, doctors...don't have one, have a pa who is also great.

9:46 pm

Jacula

kristinc - I muttered about him a bit when he 'blackmailed' me when my next tetanus booster was due.. I'd taken my (then) young son and baby daughter in for their injections and he told them, 'Mummy needs an injection first and so she's going to have hers first to show you both it doesn't hurt.' And then looked at me and said, Aren't you, Mummy?' grrr, mutter, mutter, you son of an unmarried mothers etc.

9:46 pm

9:47 pm

9:49 pm

kristinc

9:49 pm

Colhad

I'm sitting in front of a fan :)

9:50 pm

Jacula

No need to rub it in, Colhad. LOL. It's cold in UK and USA now.

9:50 pm

kristinc

go figure colhad! quite the weather varieties in Babble I suppose.

9:51 pm

stidmama

Is are conquered, moving on the to the L words.

9:51 pm

Jacula

Had a nice, relaxed Sunday with a roast beef dinner and caught up on some TV, Colhad. Did have to do a few chores, including ironing, but, all in all, not a bad day.

9:52 pm

tndaisy1960

I's shouldn't be too evil I don't think

9:52 pm

Reese\'s

I still don't get the whole clue thing with the letters and numbers

9:52 pm

tndaisy1960

L's that is

9:52 pm

Colhad

ahh, so plenty to keep you busy then Jac :)

9:53 pm

Jacula

Stid - the only L word you've really got to watch out for is the stupidhead plural of la6/18 (la7/28).

9:53 pm

stidmama

Reese's ... you were going to go to sleep early, remember? LOL

9:53 pm

stidmama

Ls are gone

9:53 pm

Reese\'s

yeah well I was on a roll! lol

9:54 pm

kristinc

okay, Reeses (although I'm contributing to the delinquency of a minor)...

9:55 pm

kristinc

when I was complaining about the ps4/5, that meant the word had 4 letters and was worth 5 points total

9:55 pm

stidmama

thanks Jacula, that "almost" caught me up, then I remembered the babbler's maxim: plural everything, then again in Latin!

9:55 pm

Colhad

I stumbled across a site called Tams11, lots of online games, few word games, MumboJumbo is my favourite, but I think you get a 30 day free trial, but I think it'll be worth paying for a membership http://www.tams11.com/

9:55 pm

Jacula

Reese's - If the word to be clued was 'queen', it would be qu5/16. qu because it begins with 'qu'. 5 because it has 5 letters. 16 because it adds up to 8 and 5-letter words are worth double the points.

9:55 pm

kristinc

do you know where to get the list of the first two letters of words and their point values?

9:56 pm

stidmama

ME 5/14 is too hard for me today. Help please?

9:56 pm

tndaisy1960

the word for middle, with dbl vowel

9:56 pm

Reese\'s

ty all but no i don't kristin

9:56 pm

stidmama

sounds like a good site, Colhad -- too bad I can't afford to keep up with my regular games! :-)

9:56 pm

kristinc

me5/14=I was going to major in pre-me*+double vowel

9:57 pm

stidmama

thanks, got that one... and the 6 after? (since it's not plural

9:57 pm

Jacula

Colhad - I've bookmarked the site to look at later. Thank you.

9:58 pm

stidmama

nvm monkey got it

9:58 pm

kristinc

okay, you can get the list in a few places...
the links are at the bottom of the page: Babbler's Annoymous, click on general and then stats or Lickety's Babble clues. Look at them both as they offer different options. Hollar if you ever need more help.

9:58 pm

Jacula

Good monkey!

9:58 pm

stidmama

on to the N words!

9:58 pm

lbdawger

not a night for me to chat, so going to log off. hope to see you all on the morrow. Nighters and good luck

9:58 pm

Colhad

that's ok, I can't believe the amount of word games there are on the net

9:59 pm

Reese\'s

ok ty kristen i'll go now be back in a bit

9:59 pm

kristinc

9:59 pm

tndaisy1960

10:00 pm

Jacula

Night, lbd.

10:02 pm

Jacula

Really, Nat? Double well done then!!

10:02 pm

10:03 pm

stidmama

homework. brb

10:03 pm

Reese\'s

whats brb

10:04 pm

kristinc

So you see the list of possible words then reeses?
You can either copy the list into notepad or word or you can open 2 windows at the same time.

10:04 pm

kristinc

be right back

10:04 pm

Jacula

Oh, just realised you probably meant my icon as well as your fireworks, Nat. Was just wondering how long you'd been up and playing. LOL.

10:04 pm

Jacula

Reese's - brb means 'Be Right Back'.

10:04 pm

Reese\'s

ty kristin and jacula

10:08 pm

Jacula

Incidentally, we've weighed 'Hunting Cat' and have decided to give him half as much again with each meal. It's stopped him pinching 'Homely Cat's' grub but it hasn't stopped him hunting. However, he only ate the head off the mouse he caught earlier, rather than everything bar the gall bladder and the tail and feet.

10:08 pm

Jacula

:((

10:09 pm

Jacula

Oh, and he didn't bring a bird home either (feathered variety).

10:10 pm

Reese\'s

clues for al,5-10 plz

10:10 pm

kristinc

Although ours is not a hunter jac, I do have one that is pushing 20 lbs I'm sure but he's also just huge to begin with...he was nearly twice the size of his sister by 4 weeks. So it is hard for me to know if he's really overweight or not.

10:10 pm

Jacula

Reese's - a + not early.

10:11 pm

Reese\'s

ty Jacula

10:12 pm

Reese\'s

ok now I'm actually leaving for bed. goodbye

10:13 pm

kristinc

goodnight reeses...well done figuring out all the lists!

10:13 pm

tndaisy1960

nite Reese's

10:14 pm

Jacula

kristinc - male cats are generally larger than females but, in the case of our two, an extremely short-legged fluffy, part-Persian female and a big, rangey, long-legged Short haired, part Siamese mog, the difference is palpable. Kira (Homely Cat) is so short-legged she looks like a panicky climber about to top Everest as she occasionally decides to look for me upstairs... I half expect her to demand oxygen, ropes and extra crampons to supplement her outstretched claws. She has ru4/5ed my stair carpet!

10:15 pm

Jacula

One day, I must video her climbing the stairs.

10:16 pm

tndaisy1960

*sigh* I suppose I should go fix His Lordship some dinner, even though he hasn't asked for it. might bbl, depends on what he's doing.

10:16 pm

kristinc

yes, I think ours is borderline at this point because he is just naturally a big guy...my parents have a "homely cat" twin to yours then because it is quite the affair to see her get up the stairs. She is 14 though.

10:16 pm

Jacula

Okay, daisy.xxx

10:16 pm

kristinc

okay daisy...sigh...fix something good :)

10:17 pm

Jacula

kristinc - Kira is somewhere between 8 & 10.

10:17 pm

Jacula

Both my cats adopted me as strays, so I can't be exactly certain of their ages. Hunter cat is now 4/6, I guess.

10:18 pm

Jacula

daisy - do a quick pasta meal or microwave something for him.

10:18 pm

kristinc

ours are extemely spoiled 2 year old siblings and they don't look or act at all related

10:19 pm

Jacula

Just going to dress my icon and profile ready for Lalique.

10:20 pm

kristinc

enjoy jac :)

10:23 pm

10:51 pm

Jacula

Stid - have you ever heard of the old Welsh 'transgression' (si*) eaters who ate food off the body of the deceased at funerals in order to absorb all the sins of the dead one?

10:52 pm

stidmama

Ss are DONE!

10:52 pm

Jacula

No matter, stid, you got the words.

10:52 pm

10:54 pm

Jacula

It was the only food they got, stid, except what they could pick and catch for themselves. However, the death rate was high then so, I guess, they wer akin to the ta* collectors of modern day.

NatLT

I actually don't waer much red, but I do like it, she was great, she let us pick our own dresses and just had us all be in the same color

11:28 pm

stidmama

yes, the short days make it more difficult to see how it sits on the ground and how it relates to other buildings and the plants (for me that would be important)

11:28 pm

stidmama

Very smart on her part -- you stay friends, and the dresses are something you can wear again.

11:29 pm

stidmama

and I am getting really really tired. Not going to make it to flip, I am afraid. See you-all tomorrow, I think.

We did look at a few houses in the dark, but we liked the inside so much that I am sure the outside wasn't that bad either.We can always go back in the day to look at the outside.We still have many more houeses to look at also. Even though I really liked house that we saw today and would like to buy it, but too soon.
