4:15 am
REG
Hang a lo*** at the next light.
4:15 am
FranMag
just spelled different ways
4:16 am
Haz1558
Oggy - there are 4 of them that sound like the Sun King. I have three of them. lo5/12 - the proper spelling, lo5/12 - change the last letter, lo5/10 - looking like a British toilet with vowels attached
4:17 am
Haz1558
Hello Franmag - are you well?
4:17 am
FranMag
i have 11 left and for the life of me can't imagine what they could be

4:27 am
Haz1558
Sorry - I must have been thinking of someone else. Still, you've got variety there!
4:27 am
JFB
Hi everyone - been lurking off and on for a while -rotten words but great cluing as usual!!
4:27 am
Haz1558
Good morning JFB.
4:28 am
FranMag
i can't clear the grid methodically the way some people do, i'm always all over the grid.
4:28 am
JFB
*thinks* Should cluing have an E or not**
4:28 am
Haz1558
I use an e, JFB, but always have a debate with myself...
4:29 am
FranMag
it looks right without the E though
4:29 am
Haz1558
Fran - I'm with you. If I see a word I put it in, no matter where it is.
4:29 am
FranMag
both work in the grid
4:29 am
JFB
Thats the way I do it as well
4:31 am
JFB
Thats my time up for a while - off to clear out the spare bedroom. You can tell I'm a working wife on holiday can't you!!
4:32 am
Haz1558
Have fun. Spare bedrooms have a remarkable capacity to become dumping grounds!
4:33 am
JFB
Don't they just! we've visitors soon so it has to be done. I'm organising a surprise 60th. birthday bash for my husband and need some where to put guests
4:35 am
Haz1558
Isn't he going to ask questions when he sees the spare bedroom ready for guests? But a lovely idea for him. (I always find the garage a useful dumping ground as well)
4:36 am
JFB
The chances are he won't even notice but he's used to me getting these sudden bright ideas - he ought to be - its our 36th wedding anniversery the day after his birthday!
4:37 am
Haz1558
Oh good idea - he's unlikely to forget his wedding anniversary with those dates.
4:37 am
FranMag
jfb, our anniversary is on my husband's birthday! we did that so he would remember.
4:38 am
JFB
As soon as his birthday cards start arriving he buys an anniversary card!!
4:38 am
FranMag
see! it works
4:39 am
JFB
Our daughter was born inDecember as well so we always end up with more cards than Clintons!
4:47 am
FranMag
yay! done!
4:47 am
Haz1558
Congratulations!
4:48 am
FranMag
went to the list for last 4, couldn't stand it anymore!
4:48 am
FranMag
any clues before i go to bed?
4:49 am
Haz1558
I'm at the same stage you were a while ago - 12 to go but don't know what to ask for!
4:50 am
Haz1558
I usually succumb earlier than this (I'm the sort who reads the end of detective stories because I can't stand the suspense)
4:51 am
FranMag
once you get the list i'm sure you'll whiz right through the last ones.
4:51 am
FranMag
well good night haz and spangles! it seems we're the only ones here.
4:51 am
Haz1558
I'm looking through the chat log to find clues for some of them. Once I've exhausted that, it'll be the list for me.
4:52 am
Haz1558
Sleep wel, FranMag - Spangle is snoring happily away. Soon I'll be the only one awake around here....
4:52 am
FranMag
the 9 is a great word, i'm tucking it away for future use.
4:52 am
Crone
need some help with the last 4 - ga6/39, the 2nd gl5/24,lo5/10 & lo5/14? any takers?
4:53 am
Haz1558
ga6/39 - is to turn a liquid into another form
4:53 am
Haz1558
The second gl5/24 changes the vowel in the middle of the first one
4:53 am
Haz1558
lo5/10 - a British toilet plus 2 vowels to make it sound like the Sun King.
4:54 am
Haz1558
lo5/14 - British toilet plus the first two letters of the seeing organ
4:55 am
Haz1558
You're welcome, Crone.
5:04 am
pida 1
mornin everyone...

5:06 am
Crone
haz if you're still there could you clue ga6/39 again for me please - last word.
5:06 am
metaleather
hi pida
5:06 am
pida 1
mornin metal
5:07 am
Haz1558
ga6/39 - to make a liquid into a more vapourous form. Think of petrol and put on the ending used with de to make something godlike.
5:12 am
Haz1558
You're welcome - and congratulations on finishing.
5:12 am
metaleather
you're done Crone? hooray Crone!!

Hi everyone. Please could I have a clue for the fl9 - not getting the bean
6:00 am
Eva
biltong-reallyhard to clue without spelling out-starts with the red white and blue-you might want to google french beans and then change the last vowel
6:00 am
Eva
maybe someone else will come up with a better clue
6:01 am
Biltong
no problem, I'll hunt for it. The french bean in your clue helps
6:02 am
ursh
how about it ends like the full name of a soft top car or ends like full name of Chev motor car
6:02 am
lizmac
Bilt fl ours is red/white & blue/2nd vowel /4th vowel/ then to allow
6:02 am
LoriP
fl = the fl 4/9 + ch*vr****

6:38 am
Dorens
hmmm we could almost have igloo here... speaking of native american heritage...
6:39 am
ursh
ok ty metal got shoelace working on mice and men
6:40 am
Dorens
i don't know what it means if I could guess that second ag 5/14 right away from your clue there....either you're a great cluer or I've been playing babble too long
6:40 am
metaleather
yw ursh.... it's from the writings of Robert Burns and is usually spelled with a Y at the end, but not this time

8:00 am
Ankhorite
Thanks, Annie. I had one done 7 years ago which hurt; they tell me that techniques have improved and this one won't hurt. I'm kind of excited about it; they'll implant a lens with lots of correction so I won't wake up blind... as I have since age 7! Blind w/o glasses, that is.
8:01 am
Ankhorite

11:12 am
stidmama
I like it when the power goes out and it's quiet. But we need a generator for the well, so that blows it pretty quick! and also for heat...
11:13 am
flosey
yes, the silence - together with the pristine snow is so beautiful
11:13 am
klaurel
:) I could live without the snow, tho
11:13 am
stidmama

3:51 pm
kalea
what do you teach?
3:52 pm
mirandapan
English (what else?)
3:53 pm
kalea
that's quite a leap from english teacher to priesthood
3:53 pm
mirandapan
Do you think so? I sometimes wonder if it's an inevitalbe trajectory (for me)
3:54 pm
mirandapan
*inevitable
3:55 pm
kalea
maybe so.......my hubby had a music degree when he went to theology school.......he's been an anglican priest for 25 years
3:56 pm
mirandapan
Really! Wonderful coincidence, then, meeting you here. I'm not usually on this time of day.
3:56 pm

3:56 pm

Great icons, you two. Cathyar, did you get Dr God or did the kids leave on their own?

4:09 pm
BettyAnne
gl5/14 & gl5/16 please
4:09 pm
Ankhorite
Cath, you can't find the 8 because there isn't one. Would you like clues for the 9?
4:09 pm
kalea
gl5/14......to revel in having won
4:09 pm
Ankhorite
BettyAnne, maybe I gl*** cuz I'm finished and you're not!
4:10 pm
kalea
gl5/16......sugary coating for food
4:10 pm
mirandapan
Yes, we are, Tea--she just pops up everywhere!
4:10 pm
Ankhorite
Betty, it's a type of cake frosting. GL + highest card in the deck.
4:10 pm
kalea
hiya Tea.........from your town, eh?
4:11 pm
BettyAnne
Thank you all so much. You've been very helpful as always.
4:11 pm
Ankhorite
"Bp." ?? Is that how you abbreviate Bishop? Is this unique to Anglicism? I have never seen it before.
4:11 pm
Dark
that helped me too
4:11 pm
Cathyar
lol...oops...i did mean the 9. and yes ank...i'd love a clue please? :)
4:11 pm
Aloyisius
Hi Everybody, Just popping in to ask about BJ's list; does anyone know what happened to Brandyjack? Is he on vacation. Certainly hope he is not ill..
4:12 pm
kalea
sorry Aloy.....i don't know
4:12 pm
mirandapan
Yes--that the abbr. I didn't know it was particularly Anglican though
4:12 pm
TeaNCrackers
she does. She was at one of my dear friends's weddings and they were so enthralled and happy to have her there.
4:13 pm
kalea
i hear she's a lovely person
4:13 pm
TeaNCrackers
the time that I met her, she was very nice and was so happy for this couple.
4:13 pm
shmoozanne
clue for the other ag5? I have a + gl4/6
4:13 pm
kalea
lol Cath........add a consonant to the front
4:13 pm
Cathyar
got that one kalea...it's what made me try it. lol
4:14 pm
Ankhorite
Clue the 9: FL (banner) + ch*ver**** (the car brand)
4:14 pm
Ankhorite
I'm wading through the sites which are angry about her. All that can be said for them is they sure are angry. *sigh*
4:14 pm
Cathyar
ty ank...that IS a word i've heard of b4, but i'd never have found it alone.
4:15 pm
EnemyisME
fl 9 -- start with the abbr for a southeastern US state with a panhandle --- add the abbr for the study of the Earth: ***logy .... and end with is called when a tennis serve touches the net
4:15 pm
Ankhorite
YW, Cath. It's a weird one. I didn't come up with that clue myself, someone did it this morning and I thought it was the easiest.
4:15 pm
kalea
the US and Canada have both been censured many times for their stands on women and gays........may as well try for more......lol
4:15 pm
TeaNCrackers
the wikipedia article on her is a good one
4:16 pm
Ankhorite
Enemy's clue is best if you want to work for your letters -- I get to the point where I'm just desperate. :)
4:17 pm
Ankhorite
Tea & etc, here's a good history on the general topic:
http://www.religioustolerance.o
rg/femclrg14.htm
4:18 pm
Ankhorite
But Ineed help understanding: "1855: The Bishop of Maryland "sets apart" two deaconesses" -- does that mean two women were honored, or two women got dumped? "sets apart" ??
4:18 pm
shmoozanne
2nd gl5/24?
4:18 pm
Ankhorite
Okay, I see "Bp" now, but have found another site which uses just + to indicate the title. Is that right? Is that common?
4:19 pm
Ankhorite
Shmooz, sometimes my eyes gl*** over.
4:19 pm
kalea
gl5.....just change the first vowel, schmoo
4:19 pm
Ankhorite
And if you have that, change the vowel.
4:20 pm
Ankhorite
I remember the "Philadelphia Eleven." *sigh*
4:21 pm
shmoozanne
gl5/20?
4:21 pm
kalea
gl5.......full of paste
4:22 pm
kalea
Ank, i have seen the + quite often
4:22 pm
mirandapan
Ankh--"sets apart" means they were granted that status
4:22 pm
AprilD
hey roomies
4:22 pm
AprilD
hey Ankh, did you get my email?
4:23 pm
TeaNCrackers
hi april, hi scatty
4:23 pm
Ankhorite
Yes, April, I am looking for my photos to send you so you can diagnose the poor thing yourself. Thank you so much!
4:24 pm
Ankhorite
Kalea, Miranda, thanks for the lessons in nomenclature!
4:24 pm
kalea
hello scatty
4:24 pm
AprilD
Ankh, master gardener's are a real resource, and usually free
4:24 pm
scatty
hi kalea, isstid around
4:24 pm
shmoozanne
ga5/16, anyone?
4:25 pm
Ankhorite
Poor tree. :( It's been struggling since we moved here. Last year, many cones & fresh growth at the top; we hoped it meant a return to health, garden person said "death throes."
4:25 pm
kalea
sorry..........have to go tend my poor sick hubby.......see you all later
4:25 pm
Ankhorite
Scatty, I haven't seen Stid yet today.
4:25 pm
Ankhorite
Bye, Kalea!
4:25 pm
kalea
no scatty, she's not
4:25 pm
scatty
ank, did you change the soil,
4:25 pm
AprilD
it happens Ankh...plants teach us the cycle of life
4:26 pm
Atalante
she was around for a bit, not long though
4:27 pm
AprilD
I just popped in to say hi, I got fireworks at like 1:30 this morning.
4:27 pm
Ankhorite
Scatty, it's a 30 y o blue spruce -- changing the soil isn't going to happen. :(
4:27 pm
scatty
she might be on later. don't have the energy to sit here and do the grid tonight, will have a go tomorrow, be back later on
4:27 pm
Ankhorite
Bye, Scatty -- this is an unpleasant grid anyway.
4:27 pm
scatty
can see what you mean ank
4:27 pm
AprilD
Ankh, you mentioned a drought, but spruces are pretty tolerant of that, and the older ones find moisture deep down.
4:28 pm
Ankhorite
A three-year drought -- we weren't here to help, it was just ending as we arrived. :(
4:28 pm
scatty
bye for now, need a comphy chare
4:28 pm
AprilD
bye scatty
4:28 pm
scatty
comfy i mean
4:28 pm
mirandapan
Had to step out, Ankh--Most Episcopleans are pleased with the new bishop--our inclusive stance on women and gays and lesbians causes distress in the wider communion--that's probably where you're getting the vitriol--along with those parishes who have pulled away in the U.S. We remain firm in inclusivity.
4:28 pm
AprilD
bye cluers, I will chat with you more about that later Ankh.
4:29 pm
Ankhorite
Thanks again, April.
4:30 pm
Ankhorite
Yeah, Miranda, I'm getting that only three dioceses are still being so harsh. Quincy, Illinois -- hey, I've been there. Quincy is not exactly a cutting-edge community on the human rights front. :(
4:32 pm
Ankhorite
*still reading* Awww, you guys had a fuss about contraception? Where can I learn more about that?
4:34 pm
mirandapan
I don't know--not an issue now. Is that a Wikipedia article?
4:35 pm
Ankhorite
No, I'm still on the website, which mentions it as an historic controversy. I didn't know Anglicans got whooped up about it, and would like to learn more.
4:36 pm
Ankhorite
You must forgive me, but all these references to "primate" are a bit unsettling for someone whose default setting is "apes & monkeys."
4:37 pm
mirandapan
I know--it makes an interesting picture--the primate of the church--sorry I don't know about the contraception issue--it doesn't show up in the published histories, most of which I've read--that could be that it's not considered the biggie.
4:38 pm
Ankhorite
Access to contraception is an issue in my (retired) professional life, that's why I'm so nosy. :)
4:40 pm
mirandapan
Ah!!! Not certain where you are, but it's a big issue in Utah, Ankh--even at the university, where students have to go to the health center to get stuff
4:41 pm
mirandapan
...for contraception
4:42 pm
Cathyar
yay...found the 7!
4:42 pm
shmoozanne
anyone have ga5/16?
4:42 pm
Ankhorite
I'm just outside DC, so we get all the federal politics about it; and went to Georgetown (R Cath) where it's a continual fuss, esp about selling contraception in school store.
4:43 pm
Ankhorite
Schmooz... ga + ***erior motives
4:43 pm

My car was towed to Toyota and it's going to cost $500.00. All because a drunk pedestrian run into oncoming traffic and in order to avoid him and not kill him, I had to drive off the road.

It seems that some bureaucrat in the NHS has decided to cut funding to the clinic that saved her life.
7:57 pm

evanonut
stid, you may keep him unchecked till mid january.
7:59 pm
stidmama
hello hodag!
7:59 pm
yme
msilver - did you get the info about the pedestrian? Maybe you can take them to court for the costs. Reckless endangerment or something?
8:00 pm
stidmama
okay, let me know if I need to put him on my "list" (actually maintain several lists... the kids are temporarily off their usual one this evening!)
8:00 pm
Jacula
Hi Stid. Have you mailed me via BabAnon yet? I think we talked about that the other night?

stidmama
Dark, ya' done good! See you tomorrow!
8:02 pm
Jacula
Stid - I think we were going to exchange e-mail addresses but I was/am unwilling to put mine up on here and so I said if you messaged me through the ez mail on BabAnon we could get in touch? Forgive me if I'm mistaken, it was a bad night for me (anniversary of Dad's death).
8:03 pm
stidmama
I think that may have been someone else. my email is always in my profile, toward the bottom.
8:03 pm
Jacula
Hi & 'Bye Dark.

zo4/9 is the larval form of a crab (the seaside kind!). zo5/20 is of that form and the following zo.20 is the plural of the larval form. First 3 letter of the zo word are the Christian name of actress Zo* Wannamaker.

Lib -- my icon for architecture was also a building by I.M.Pei (plus a Montrealer friend, Ray Affleck) -- Place Ville Marie in Mtl and its underground city.
8:12 pm
Jacula
lib - If you keep on keeping track of my stuff, I'll be happy to try to keep track of yours.;)

8:13 pm
libarebel
Did your friend co-design, Jilli?
8:14 pm
LoriP
That's not good Jill, at least you aren't supplied by NS Power, where ants and crows can take down the grid... Good luck!
8:14 pm
Jacula
Rolin had a great building for her architecture theme, Gaudi's building in Barcelona - Sagra da Familia. It's made me want to go and see it.

8:16 pm
Jacula
Also want to see the incredible roadside supports and apartment buildings he's designed around Spain.
8:16 pm
jillibus
Yes, Lib -- hewas a very talented guy who died too young. Designed Place Bonaventure also and the McGill U library in which I had a small influence. We were at a party and I was fresh from NY, charmed by the green copper roofs and grey stone walls in Montreal. Althoug in those days pristine glass was in fashion, Ray listened and the library has a green copper roof and grey stone walls, sort of!

Jacula
It's way past my bedtime, diney, but the thought of either sleeping on the sofa or joining my sick beloved in his sweat-soaked bed...
8:38 pm
EvaNadine
mmmm.....yummy......
8:38 pm
LoriP
Gee Jac, you say that so poetically.... :)
8:38 pm
Jacula
He's burning up with fever and sighing in his sleep + groaning, coughing, and grinding his teeth... and then he wants to cuddle up to me (furnace though he is right now)...
8:39 pm
Jacula
Lori - Why, thank you. I am a published poet, btw.:)
8:40 pm
EvaNadine

My daughter and I were discussing earlier, what's this thing with men and women with cut ponytails either side of their head? I stuck my hair up like that at start of day because I had cooking to do.

8:59 pm
Jacula
It's not an actual schoolgirl they want, I think. Any male in here now correct me if I go wrong with my theory. They have memories of schoolgirls who aroused them some way when they were schoolboys. However, they want the girl with the knowing look in her eye as adults, but maybe she should look like the schoolgirl she (or 'that' schoolgirl) once was??

I got my schoolgirl theory thing wrong at the end as my son came in and spoke to me, thus distracting me. I meant to say, they want the schoolgirl with the knowing look in her eye (that is the older woman imitating a schoolgirl).

Jac, you don't read like a pervert. but we do question the people you hang around. *wink wink* Jilli, i shoveled 4 times this morning getting the various doorways cleared.
9:05 pm

9:06 pm
lbdawger
I'd settle for the 30's
9:06 pm
Jacula
Stephie - I thought you meant in the 1970s there, for a moment. I was back watching Georgie Bestt haring around the football pitch.
9:06 pm
lbdawger
Jilli, i sure hope someone comes by to clear your walks and doorways for you.
9:07 pm

Poor you in Arkansas, going below the 70s! Gaaa...

9:09 pm
jillibus
c'mon over, jac, there's lots
9:09 pm
Jacula
lbd & jilli - In today's litigious UK no one clears the pavement/sidewalk any more... you see, if you have cleared it and someone slips on it they can sue you. If you haven't touched it, they can't. How can that be right?? If I keep on saying that some kind of civil revolution is 5 years' overdue in UK, you may now see why.

My own personal dinner tonight - made just for me an no one else (which is unusual) - 5 varities of lettuce, chopped cucumber, thinly sliced spring onions, orange segments,cold, sliced duck pieces and tomato ciabatta bread. Heaven! Followed that with pears, pumpkin seeds & plain Greek youhurt mix.
9:15 pm
Ping
that sounds wonderful to me!
9:15 pm
lbdawger
as my hubby would say..."where's the meat?"
9:15 pm
Jacula
Ping - it was!
9:16 pm
Jacula
lbd - the meat was in the duck!
9:16 pm
lbdawger
he's such a beef eater, fowl doesn't count as meat. it does sound delish tho jac
9:16 pm
Jacula
lbd - but my other half would not have liked the orange, nor the salad.
9:17 pm
Jacula
lbd - I love steak (if not messed about with other than black pepper and vinegar).
9:18 pm
lbdawger
Jac, i've finally gotten Hubby to eat veggies with his dinner. He thinks pork and beans are a veggie.
9:18 pm
Jacula
My other half's saying about fruity things with meat or salad is, 'Fruit is meant to be served in a pastry case with custard.'
9:19 pm
lbdawger
Jac, LOL it must be a genetic code thing in men.
9:20 pm
Jacula
lbd - It must be. God bless 'em!
9:20 pm
lbdawger
also veggies must be overcooked and mushy to be palatable to him...gross!
9:21 pm
Jacula
lbd - Have you got him to eat 'interesting veggies' yet? ie. not just plain boiled or steamed? I am gradually working my way towards that with my captive male thingey.;
9:22 pm
Jacula
lbd - sprouts, carrots or cabbage - max 10 mins in a saucepan or 8 in a pressure cooker. \Any more renders them my ex-MIL style. Tasteless mush.
9:23 pm
Jacula
Mind you, I don't like the new trend for steraming but still raw vegs. I either want them raw in a salad or cooked in a hot meal.
9:26 pm
lbdawger
I've baked asperagus, and he's liked that, but then they were wrapped in bacon!
9:27 pm
lbdawger
veggies in stews or soups he's okay with, yet he loves stir fry with the veggies crisp? go figure
9:27 pm
Jacula
Incidentally, when we were in Crete on holiday in the summer, I went to the family restaurant to taste the moussaka. Beloved told me it was fine, but something was missing. I knew what was missing. Maybe I'll tell them some time.

9:32 pm
lbdawger
i can eat aubergines if the skin is removed. i think it may have been an herb or some other ingredient.
9:32 pm
Jacula

9:48 pm

Wow! Gorgeous! Did you take the photo?

oldhousejunky
hi 4 - not hers but hi* + consonant
9:55 pm
Ping
thanks, junky
9:55 pm
Jacula
Ping - what is on the island now? A 94-year old caretaker who was robbed whilst he slept. All the contents of the Churcgh were taken and so the Church is kept locked now. The remains of the very lively community that found themselves dumped there, the strangely small graveyard for all those that died., (Explanation when I finish my holiday blog). Also, a guide on that trip who's grandad was on of those that made a family and thrived on the island.The island had a cinema, and all sorts, long before the rest of the Greek islands had such things. If there were any members of the original community left ther today they WOULD be Babblers, I have no doubt about that.

11:55 pm
jillibus

11:55 pm
TeaNCrackers
how come relarion doesn't have a flag and a little pink person?
11:56 pm
relarion
That's odd, I thought I did have a flag...
11:56 pm
stidmama
hi all, what's the consensus on tomorrow's grid? big or small?
11:57 pm

11:57 pm
MaverickWill
It's tempting to shout "Oy, oy, oy", but it's too early...
11:58 pm
stidmama
hi relarion! you know the San Juans are just as snowy as Jill and Flosey's islands... several districts up there cancelled school for tomorrow already!
11:58 pm
stidmama

11:58 pm
jillibus
Hi again stid -- hi oggy -- I guessed 397
11:58 pm
TeaNCrackers

oggy
hi stid, hows things
11:59 pm

11:59 pm
stidmama
"Lots" is relative, Tea! LOL we have more than we usually get this time of year. Most of our snow happens in January, so over an inch already seems like a lot. Of course it melted, and then froze...
11:59 pm
relarion
I know, Stid, this is our 3rd trip, will be a good test of whether we REALLY like it..
