Hello Franmag!

Atalante

you have mail, haz :)

3:37 am

FMitch

Morning Haz, Ata and Fran, looking at the gaps in the logs, seems to have been rather quiet this morning.

3:37 am

FranMag

hi FM!

3:37 am

Atalante

absence of puerile drivellings perhaps? *evil grin*

3:38 am

FMitch

Now now Ata, bit early for that although you ahve beenup since the crack of dawn.

3:38 am

Haz1558

Hello you two. Are you wanting to liven things up?

3:38 am

Atalante

have you checked your emails, FM?

3:38 am

FranMag

thought i could come back on and play, but the kids want me to put them to sleep! i'll see you all tomorrow!

3:39 am

Haz1558

Bye FranMag - the pleasures of motherhood!

3:40 am

jakes-mum

morning everyone

3:40 am

Haz1558

Good morning jakes-mum - how are you today?

3:40 am

jakes-mum

not to bad, got scan today which is a bit scary

3:41 am

Haz1558

Do they still make you have a full bladder?

3:42 am

jakes-mum

yes, I haveto drink a pink of water an hour beforehand, which is torture as I need the loo every 15 mins without that!!

3:42 am

FMitch

Yup read mails, love the scenarios, any one of which would be fine as a means to end the nightmare!
Hi jakes-mum

3:42 am

jakes-mum

*pint

3:43 am

Haz1558

It's not very nice, is it? Is this the first scan?

3:43 am

jakes-mum

yes, it's not a good scan though. I started bleeding on tuesday so we are going to make sure all is ok

3:44 am

Haz1558

Oh, I'm sorry, that must be really worrying for you. I hope all is well.

3:45 am

FMitch

ditto from me too.

3:45 am

Haz1558

So you're probably trying not to think about it and not succeeding?

3:45 am

jakes-mum

i'm at the stage where i'm thinking positive as I have had no cramps etc and I only bled heavily on tues, very little since then. Though I managed to slip down the stairs aswell this morning so think I really need to confine myself to bed

3:46 am

Haz1558

Cotton wool needed, I think. I really hope all is fine.

3:46 am

jakes-mum

My sister bled with both her children which is a positive sign aswell

3:46 am

jakes-mum

Thank you for your well wishes. I will be back on after and will tell you all what the scan lady says (are the doctors or nurses?)

3:47 am

Haz1558

I suppose we're so used to things supposedly 'going by the book' that we panic when things go differently.

3:47 am

Haz1558

Yes, please let us know, jakes-mum.

3:47 am

jakes-mum

I had nothing like this with my son, so maybe this is a girl?

3:48 am

Haz1558

I don't know - my two pregnancies were completely different and they were both girls.

3:48 am

jakes-mum

I'm still talking away to her as it makes me feel calmer

3:48 am

jakes-mum

Hubby still hoping for a boy

3:49 am

Haz1558

He'll love the baby no matter what. Have you seen men and their daughters?

3:49 am

jakes-mum

yes, I said if its a girl, I can guarantee she will be a daddys girl and i'll just be that woman who provides food and plasters

3:50 am

Haz1558

Don't sell yourself short!

3:51 am

FMitch

My Mother quoted an old saying the other day "Sons are sons until they marry, daughters are dauters all their life".

3:51 am

jakes-mum

I'm used to it with my son, a total daddys boy until he falls over. I like it that way cos hubby already has 2 girls that he doesn't see so Jake was like a fill for the hole in his heart so I love the fact they are so close

3:54 am

jakes-mum

but then again i'm plaster lady for my husband aswell he always comes to me when he hurts himself

3:54 am

jakes-mum

I do like that saying fmitch.

3:55 am

FMitch

:)

3:55 am

Haz1558

Are you all slipping and sliding in that house of yours? We should get the health and safety people round! Husband was always the one for administering medicine and plasters here.

3:57 am

jakes-mum

we have no banister on one side of the stairs and when I walk down with no socks on I always fall down them. But I was desperate for croissants this morning so just came down without getting dressed and paid the price. Landed quite softly though on my side as I caught the banister on the other side which slowed me down

3:57 am

Haz1558

Oh, do take care!

3:59 am

jakes-mum

ty. I'm trying but accidents just seem to follow me! I get it from my mum. She has damaged her toe and you can guarantee every day she kicks, knocks or stubs it on something

4:00 am

jakes-mum

oh dear i'm going to have to start drinking water soon. I should use the loo first shouldn't I?

4:01 am

FMitch

I owuld say loo first and then you stand a fighting chance of hanging on

4:01 am

Haz1558

This is where your pelvic floor exercises prove their worth. You did do your pelvic floor exercises?

4:02 am

Haz1558

(All females begin to do their pelvic floor exercises in sympathy)

4:02 am

jakes-mum

ummmmmm . . . . well I meant to . . . . but I was busy that day ;-)

4:03 am

jakes-mum

I hate not being able to go to the loo, you know i'll need to go the moment it hits 10:30 and I have to stop going

4:03 am

FMitch

HAving been on diuretics for the last 6 months I know what you mean!!

4:04 am

Haz1558

Tiny little pill, so much effect....

4:04 am

Deeha

pelvic floor? what is a pelvic floor? Think mine dropped out years ago!!!

4:04 am

jakes-mum

you'd have thought after all these years they would have found a way to look inside without a full bladder. I think it's just to entertain the scanner with you wriggling about that they make you drink so much

4:05 am

jakes-mum

*blushes slightly* I never did any of the exercises after jake was born, that may be why i'm suffering now

4:06 am

FMitch

With all this pee the floor had better be laminated!

4:06 am

Haz1558

Husband does pregnancy scans on cattle using ultrasound. The cattle don't seem to be able to read the leaflet ahead of time, but he manages without the full bladder. Should he give a talk to the NHS?

4:06 am

jakes-mum

lino in my bathroom! had to put it down when little boy was learning to stand up and aim! lol

4:07 am

Haz1558

Well, there's one advantage of having a little girl....

4:08 am

jakes-mum

My sister went for her last scan a few eeks ago and followed the rules about liquid to the letter. The scanner then asked her if she wanted to use the loo before they started as her bladder was exceptionally full!!!

4:08 am

Haz1558

You can't win, can you?

4:09 am

jakes-mum

not with the NHS! I bet the celebs don't have to drink their body weight in water before their scans

4:09 am

Haz1558

That would be half a glass for Posh Spice....

4:10 am

jakes-mum

and the worse thing is you start drinking 1 hr before the appointment, and then they make you wait 20 mins after you get there cos they are running late!!

4:10 am

jakes-mum

oh no I now need a wee with all this talk. hold on a mo

4:11 am

Haz1558

We'd better make sure not to have any taps running when she gets back.

4:11 am

Haz1558

And no talk of holidays to Niagra Falls either.

4:11 am

Deeha

did I head someone whistling out there?!

4:12 am

FMitch

and don't mention the r word as Wimbledon kicks off at 11.00

4:12 am

Deeha

hear that should be!

4:12 am

jakes-mum

stop talking about taps and niagra you meanies'

4:12 am

FMitch

LOL Deeha, nice to see you back.

4:12 am

Haz1558

Venice and Amsterdam are off limits.

4:13 am

Deeha

everyt morning I swear I wont log on till I have done a bit of housework/gardeneing but as you know.....................!!

4:13 am

jakes-mum

your just being mean to me now lol. your not allowed to upset me i'm pregnant and very fragile

4:13 am

Deeha

could practise typing too!!

4:13 am

Haz1558

Oh Deeha, it''s quite normal. Don't fight it.

4:14 am

jakes-mum

we all know what you mean deeha

4:14 am

jakes-mum

ok started my mammoth water drinking now

4:19 am

Haz1558

I watched 'House' last night, first time I ever watched one through. House had the opposite problem, he couldn't urinate for three days. He'd have been a radiographer's dream. Ah, but no, he's male and not pregnant...... Still, it goes to show that the opposite extreme can be a problem as well.

4:19 am

Haz1558

Anyway, this grid isn't the quickest, is it?

4:20 am

jakes-mum

i'm down to 18 left. stumped on the z6 if anyone has a clue

4:22 am

Haz1558

I used morewords - add an opera song to the zo.

4:24 am

hydra

Hi haz and Kajesmum. I saw House too and his problem was my worst nightmare cos it once happened to me! It was so painful and so scary.

4:25 am

jakes-mum

hi hydra how are you

4:25 am

Deeha

well I must drag myself away.good luck everyone see you all later

4:25 am

Haz1558

Hello hydra - I'm sure it was nasty.

4:25 am

jakes-mum

bye deeha

4:25 am

hydra

Bearing up. My partner is still in hospital rcovering from a stroke. It's been terrible but they're letting him out for a few hours tomorrow.

4:26 am

Haz1558

Bye Deeha, see you later.

4:26 am

hydra

That's why you haven't seen me on Babble chat lately.

4:26 am

Haz1558

I was going to ask about your partner - he's making some progress then?

4:27 am

hydra

I forgot you already knew, Haz. He's making very good progress, having intensive physio, but his personality has changed. He's very angry and nasty all the time I hope that wears off!

4:27 am

jakes-mum

it's good their letting him out for a little while

4:28 am

Haz1558

I hope so, hydra - it may be that he's terribly frustrated or maybe medication is having an effect?

4:28 am

hydra

Yes. He can walk a bit now, tho still can't use his right hand much. His speech is better too. I think you're right about the frustration, Haz.

4:29 am

hydra

I'm finding this a tough grid. How about you?

4:29 am

Haz1558

You'll maybe have to be patient for a while, but hopefully all will come right.

4:29 am

Haz1558

I think it's tough as well, lots of individual words.

4:30 am

hydra

Thanks for your support! I've been feeling very alone in all this. Anyone know how MrP is?

4:31 am

Haz1558

She's on holiday at the minute, Lickety is still working but she has the children with her. She seems to be in good form at the minute, though surgery is looming.

4:31 am

FMitch

hydra, my mum was angry and very ratty after her storke, very out of character, a lot was frustration too but now she is fine. A little frailer then she was but sriving around and painting and much much better. It just took time.

4:32 am

FMitch

*driving

4:32 am

hydra

That's good to hear, FMitch. I was starting to feel he didn't want me around, but I think he's lashing out at everyone and everything.

4:33 am

FMitch

You just need buckets of patience and optomism hydra and don't neglect yourself.

4:33 am

hydra

I'm going for a massage in an hour. I really need it.

4:49 am

Haz1558

christmas song pink

6:12 am

carleekat

and not the beer can chicken either... oh..and hubby refuses to mix fruit with meat ( i have NO idea why...but damn is it ever limiting to the whole culinary experience )

6:13 am

lynxxx

Pink - co5.20 is to cringe away

6:13 am

Karys

carleekat......did some chicken kebabs that had been marinaded in garil, oil and lemon juice with a few herbs, they went down well.

6:13 am

pinkhatlil

the co5 i need flosey...i have the xmas one already but thanks

6:13 am

Karys

and hello everyone !

6:13 am

mrpresident

yep, get a whole chook, stick garlic slivers, lemon slices and butter under the skin... rub salt and rosemary on the outside and bake... basting often.... yumbo!

6:13 am

flosey

ok, think chicken

6:13 am

carleekat

( once again..that meat fruit thing... drives me NUTS and I am after 17 years running out of creative options)

6:13 am

pinkhatlil

hi karys

6:13 am

Hi Karys

hi karys

6:14 am

greenbayladi

hi karys

6:14 am

carleekat

sounds great... i woud LOVE it... hubby would not even attempt to try it

6:14 am

mrpresident

not a lemon man?

6:14 am

Karys

carleekat, try omitting lemon juice and adding tomato sauce

6:15 am

Karys

for marinade

6:15 am

pinkhatlil

thank you

6:15 am

Karys

or soy sauce

6:16 am

carleekat

not a meat/fruit combo man no orange glazed chicken...no lemon...no cranberry... no raspberry glaze...no fruit..period

6:16 am

greenbayladi

the last an please

6:16 am

carleekat

( only fruit I get away with is wine )

6:16 am

Karys

my daughter isn't either

6:16 am

carleekat

done the soy/ wine/ tomato sauce with garlic to death

6:17 am

Karys

indian spices ?

6:17 am

carleekat

( I love indian...kids love it..he hates it ) <sigh>

6:18 am

NonoNanette

carlee, try italian dressing as a marinade for chicken then keep basteing with it while cooking

6:18 am

Karys

change hubby ?

6:18 am

mrpresident

ok, how about 40 clove garlic chicken... take a whole chook and brown it in a pan with butter... add brandy and flambe... then stuff the chook with about 40 cloves of unpeeled garlic cloves and put in a casserole dish... cover and cook on low for 2 hours ... seive the garlic and serve as sauce over the top... melts in your mouth!

6:18 am

carleekat

nice idea...but a bit $$$$$

6:19 am

Karys

OOh MrP....did that 2 weeks ago for friends, it was really great, they loved it !!

6:19 am

lynxxx

Greenbay - if we aren't using a list and have not finished then it is really hard for us to know if we have the one you are after. Can I suggest that you give the whole value of the one you are after - eg an4.8

6:19 am

lynxxx

Yummo MRP

6:19 am

carleekat

sounds good ... ( now I feel like am complaining..sorry ) but going up to 90F here..and I don't have a/c... oven on for 2+ hours will roast all of us along with the 40 cloves of garlic

6:19 am

flosey

that sounds great mrp

6:21 am

carleekat

hence the BBQ request

6:21 am

mrpresident

or my favourite... get chicken breasts.... wrap bacon or ham around them and toothpick them into place... halve roma tomatoes and line a baking dish with them... mix olive oil, white vinegar and balsamic vinegar and pour over tomatoes. place garlic cloves around and some rosemary. Place the chicken on top and back for about 45 minutes.

6:21 am

flosey

carlee, try it on a spit on bbq, garlic should stay in place if pinned at end

6:21 am

carleekat

that sounds...definitely possible Mr pres

6:22 am

mrpresident

it is soooooo yummy!

6:22 am

Karys

could you cook that in a pan one the barbecue carleekat ?

6:22 am

mrpresident

7:32 am

Uneaixoise

7:33 am

Anniebrook

feather, left, right, confusing to me, teacher kept taking pencil out of my left hand and putting in my right hand for an entire year, done me in

7:33 am

featherbee

lol, that's ok!

7:33 am

Inge2

Feather--two variations on spelling the same ra4. The 1st is r + all vowels. THe 2nd substitutes the sometimes vowel. Think rugs

7:33 am

Anniebrook

feather, am lefthanded to this day but can do many things with my right that I cant do with my left

7:34 am

featherbee

ah, i thought i tried that vowel one! must have had them in the wrong order. ty!

7:34 am

featherbee

got em both

7:34 am

Inge2

:)

7:36 am

flosey

I'm same Annie - swing golf club, baseball bat, etc. right handed

7:37 am

Anniebrook

flosey, I can write righthanded but I am much more comfortable lefthanded so it worked out...many years ago

7:38 am

flosey

ah, I can't write R/H nor can I swing L/H

7:38 am

Inge2

the theory is, you're born either right-handed or random-handed. If you are born random-handed, you have a 50% chance of being right or left handed

7:38 am

featherbee

how long is the NO word?

7:39 am

sprite

4 letters

7:39 am

featherbee

ty, better be able to monkey that then!

7:39 am

Inge2

you can tell which you were born as by looking at the direction the whorl in your hair on your head goes: clockwise: right-handed. counter-Clockwise: random-handed

7:40 am

featherbee

i'm pretty sure daniel's left handed, and he swirls clockwise

7:40 am

Uneaixoise

no4/5 the status quo

Hello Jac

9:12 am

Jacula

Hi, Annie and everyone. Just another brief visit. 7 to go...

9:12 am

72 Temple Owl

hi jacs!

9:12 am

Anniebrook

Temple, I am doing very well

9:12 am

Jacula

(Words, that is, not visits!)

9:12 am

Aloyisius

have any of you heard of using extra strength downy softener sheets to deter mi4.6? Now that we don't have cats, mi4.6 are a problem

9:13 am

Frances

New one on me Aloy

9:13 am

72 Temple Owl

i have. we tried it in the office

9:13 am

Frances

Did it work?

9:14 am

Aloyisius

did it work, TO? I will go out and buy some today if it did

9:14 am

pinkhatlil

hey pabtrek, wb jacula

9:14 am

72 Temple Owl

well those who had them claimed they did not see any. however, when there is a nest between the desk stacks, it's just a matter of where they go

9:15 am

72 Temple Owl

so it will repel them but not eliminate them

9:15 am

Aloyisius

h'mmm, well I was not happy at all when we got back to find that the critters had nested in my kitchen towel drawer!

9:16 am

Aloyisius

the idea was given to me by my daughter who got it from her mother in law in the UP.. said it repels them

9:16 am

72 Temple Owl

that is not good. i guess it would keep them out of that area, but they will go somewhere else

9:17 am

Angelsong

callan, are you still here?

9:18 am

Jacula

Aloy - I'll lend you my Hunter cat; he catches at least 2 mi4 per night. (Outside, that is!)

9:18 am

72 Temple Owl

and very eco- freindly solution, too! tee hee

9:19 am

Jacula

There is a sonic device you can get to deter mi4. Don't know if it affects pets though.

9:19 am

Aloyisius

ty Jacula.. sounds like a great hunter! Does he leave "love gifts" on the steps for you? Our cats would do that

9:20 am

Jacula

Aloy - indeed he does.. and he announces his arrival with them. The more muffled the call, the bigger the prey.

9:21 am

72 Temple Owl

well fols - time to either dive in with a vengeeance, or come back later. since i have oodles to do i will stop for now with 41 left. befoore i do, i think the pest repeller may work, it's work a try, they are inexpensive

9:21 am

Jacula

See you later, TO.

9:21 am

Aloyisius

ok, TO.. see you later.. and I will report on the efficacy of the dryer sheets! (-:

9:22 am

72 Temple Owl

i had one in the garage, after infestation, they did not seem to come back. then again, i had cracks filled

3:07 pm

dcseain

huh. i didn't know the fr5 was a word in English, though i know it from Spanish.

3:07 pm

CsCdeFounder

formica is a word, but it's a proper noun

3:08 pm

dcseain

formica is a genus of ants, also

3:08 pm

Cathyar

oh... tks cscde

3:09 pm

CsCdeFounder

that's what i was referring to, dcs, but i've only ever seen the word as a proper noun before

3:09 pm

Cathyar

so...it should still be a valid word then!?!

3:09 pm

Cathyar

i thought it was some sort of element

3:09 pm

Atalante

formica has either a F or is a brand name, or both

3:09 pm

Cathyar

or a type of metal maybe

3:10 pm

Vicuna

They allow a few Latin words, such as genuses, but not many. It's pretty arbitrary which Latin (and foreign) words they allow.

3:10 pm

Cathyar

*retrieves dictionary to look it up*

3:10 pm

Atalante

take the first 3 letters off and you get a mineral ;)

3:11 pm

Atalante

if you look on my dA account, you'll see the colours other people had :)

3:11 pm

Cathyar

my dictionary shows it with a capital "F" and it's a laminated, heat resistant plastic used on tables etc..

3:11 pm

Vicuna

I love the blue and green, even if they "should never be seen!" lol

3:12 pm

Cathyar

ahhh and if u leave off the "a" at the end, it IS a valid word! :)

3:12 pm

Atalante

blue and green ROCK. as long as you do it right

3:12 pm

Vicuna

Oh, then it's the acid the ants make. Thanks for the tip, Cathyar!

3:12 pm

3:15 pm

Cathyar

3:16 pm

Vicuna

Bye, mom23 and Cathyar.

3:16 pm

Atalante

because I asked DrG which were the 5 biggest grids ever in babble history, and used those on the cards *grin*

3:17 pm

CsCdeFounder

there are only 130 words in this grid, vic

3:17 pm

CsCdeFounder

oh, nvm, read that out of context

3:17 pm

Vicuna

Oh, you sneaky thing!

3:17 pm

Atalante

I know *sneakiness*

3:18 pm

Vicuna

You know I never do the huge grids any more! But now I'll have to go back in history and find this one. I wonder whether I did it on its day?

3:18 pm

FMitch

Sorry Vicuna, I have to disagree, mine is the best but then I am biased.
Ata they look lovely as a collection too.

3:18 pm

CsCdeFounder

i'd love to do a grid that had 500+ words in it

3:19 pm

Vicuna

Which colors did you get, FMitch? The reddish purple like in your sunset?

3:20 pm

Atalante

Vi: 2005-12-18 go look :)

3:20 pm

FMitch

LOL good guess, mine is the bottom middle, blues and gold. Which is yours?

3:20 pm

Atalante

no! FM had something *completely* different than you'd expect!

3:20 pm

Atalante

you soooooo nearly got a pink one, Vi

3:21 pm

FMitch

Thats me all over Ata, full of surprises :)

3:21 pm

Atalante

it was lovely though to use those colours. I never use those colours together, it was *fun*

3:22 pm

Vicuna

lol, Ata! I'm glad you refrained. The other day I got a gift for organizing all the art projects for a camp that was a fundraiser for "Habitat for Humanity." they gave everyone lovely ceramic bowls, and of course what do they hand me but the pink one. Sigh. My life would be better if I'd just get over the pink aversion.

3:22 pm

Vicuna

Mine is bottom left, if I remember the placement. Light blue and light aqua green.

3:22 pm

Atalante

actually, I nearly did you two. a proper one and a pink one for a giggle

3:23 pm

Atalante

if you 2 open that page again, I'll try and remember who got what

3:23 pm

FMitch

Oh that is a pretty one.

3:23 pm

Vicuna

Lol. I really don't mind pink in moderation!

3:23 pm

CsCdeFounder

just checked out that 12/18/05 grid...that would've been a lot of fun to do, in my opinion

3:24 pm

Atalante

3:25 pm

Vicuna

Nice. I like those rich reds a lot, too.

3:25 pm

FMitch

Thats very interesting as the colours in Haz's are similar theme to the one I sent her.

3:26 pm

Atalante

I really liked haz's one too

3:26 pm

Atalante

really?? oooo

3:26 pm

Atalante

those colours obviously suit her

3:26 pm

FMitch

We both chose similar palettes!

3:27 pm

Vicuna

Hey, FMitch, no fair doing Babble cards on the side!

3:27 pm

Atalante

it is funny how people see other people in similar colours, Ive had it happen a good number of times

3:28 pm

FMitch

Sorry Vi I did 2 for humans and 2 for dogs (Hobbit and Spangle), didn't really have time to do any more this time round.

3:28 pm

Vicuna

lol. Well, I hope Hobbit and Spangle appreciate them!

3:29 pm

Atalante

hobbit's is proudly "stuck" to her dog bed!

3:29 pm

FMitch

What a giggle!

3:30 pm

CsCdeFounder

sorry if i asked this before, but do any of you play other word games online?

3:30 pm

Vicuna

I was using my computer printer to do the back side of the cards and it stopped working right after I did 2. But it seems to be okay again, so I plan to finish up the others soon. Really. I promise!

3:31 pm

FMitch

Nope CsCd, one is more than enough for me.

3:31 pm

Vicuna

I don't, CsCde, but lots of others do. If you don't get any suggestions this time around, ask again when there's a different crowd chatting.

3:32 pm

Atalante

*giggle* refresh for a tired tired dog

3:32 pm

Atalante

I play weboggle

3:32 pm

Karys

excuse me for butting in, and being extremely nosy, but what are you ll talking about please ?

3:33 pm

FMitch

Vicuna I was an ATC virgin before this and could so easily get sucked into the whole concept :)

3:33 pm

Atalante

its a wonderfully fun and productive idea isn't it! and it makes you feel all warm and happy inside

3:34 pm

CsCdeFounder

wasn't really asking for suggestions, vic, as i've played practically every word game on the net...was just wondering if anyone played other word games besides this, is all

3:34 pm

Vicuna

I've never done it before, either, FMitch.

3:34 pm

Atalante

lol sorry karys! we're talking about artist trading cards - little cards people make up and exchange - any type of art, just fun and happy things

3:34 pm

Vicuna

Karys, stidmama organized an exchange of "Artist Trading Cards" among babble players.

3:35 pm

Karys

3:35 pm

3:38 pm

FMitch

Brill ta, love your Hobbit icon - that is one tired puppy.

3:39 pm

Atalante

I used to be part of an ATC forum, but I realised really quickly that actually I only put effort into cards for people I know and want to create something for. So I dropped out of there, and was so pleased when Stid started this

3:39 pm

Hi Liz, just saw Toya on BBC1 she mentioned something about a nasty woman on Sark lol

3:42 pm

Lizsark

Uh oh, hanging my head in shame

3:42 pm

Vicuna

3:42 pm

FMitch

Don't you dare hang your head!

3:42 pm

Atalante

3:42 pm

Sandieangel

Lizsark

Nah, secretly I have an ego the size of a London bus...just like a famous 80s pop star

3:43 pm

KnightTime

hello all

3:43 pm

Lizsark

I brought shame on myself Ata by offending the pop goddess that is Toyah

3:43 pm

KnightTime

back to get my last 8 words

3:44 pm

FMitch

and her "people" got all hffy.

3:44 pm

Lizsark

all I did was write on my blog that she had pulled out of a local Taverners cricket/celeb match here on Sark - thr truth! And I got a call from her PA to ask me to remove said offending sentence

3:45 pm

Atalante

LOL! how silly!

3:45 pm

Lizsark

IT would be funny if it wasn't so unbelieveably sad LOL

3:45 pm

Lizsark

better things to do and all that...

3:45 pm

Atalante

that really is just stupid

3:45 pm

Lizsark

3:46 pm

Lizsark

3:46 pm

Atalante

LOL! *giggles a lot*

3:47 pm

FMitch

Oh it didn't when I tried yesterday.

3:47 pm

3:48 pm

Atalante

I can't believe I'm watching old episodes of Family Fortunes. Its such a stupid programme

3:48 pm

Lizsark

3:49 pm

Atalante

Good evening Haz!

3:51 pm

Lizsark

3:52 pm

Atalante

3:52 pm

Haz1558

It was fantastic. Some commentators had to eat their words!

3:52 pm

FMitch

Oh what have I missed?

3:53 pm

Atalante

henin crashing out, gasquet beating roddick

3:53 pm

Haz1558

It was the most brilliant day's entertainment, FMitch.

3:53 pm

Lizsark

Gasquet beat Roddick in the mens quarters and henin crashed out too

3:53 pm

Lizsark

oh lol sorry Ata

3:53 pm

Atalante

great minds write alike :)

3:53 pm

FMitch

Crumbs, even to a non avid tennis watcher I understand the excitement there.

3:54 pm

I love it when both players raise their game.

3:54 pm

I can't believe I just said crumbs, how Enid Blyton of me :)

3:55 pm

Deeha

Dont like mens tennis any more they just stand on the back line and smash the ball over. But that re-run yesterday of Borg and McEnroe had me on the edge of my seat

3:55 pm

Haz1558

Deeha, some of the men still come into the net.

3:55 pm

Lizsark

oh I loved it Dee, I thought Gasquet was brilliant

3:56 pm

Lizsark

LOL FM you'll be wearing a pullover and drinking lashings of ginger beer next

3:56 pm

Deeha

dont see that lovely finesse very often - the lobs and the drop shots and the volleys

3:56 pm

Haz1558

Apparently Federer likes to watch Gasquet most of all the male players. Roger's opinion is good enough for me.

3:56 pm

FMitch

Only if you throw it properly I find, then you have to reel them in gently.

3:57 pm

Haz1558

AND Miriam Bartoli claimed that she was inspired by seeing Pierce Brosnan watching....

3:57 pm

Lizsark

yes that was funny

3:57 pm

Haz1558

Marian - see, I'm still too excited even to get the names right!

3:57 pm

CsCdeFounder

does this mean there are no baseball fans here? lol

3:57 pm

Haz1558

If I knew Pierce was in the crowd, I'd just give up and watch him.

Hello Haz....you ok ?

4:00 pm

4:00 pm

ra6/21 - an animal, not noted for its colour

4:01 pm

FMitch

Night Liz
Isn't it interesting Karys

4:01 pm

Deeha

I read it in amazement too. I have put it on my favourites so I can go back to it. But dont understanf=d about the swapping yet

4:01 pm

Haz1558

Karys, I'm fine, thanks.

4:01 pm

Deeha

I know Atalante if I watch the womens I have to do it with the sound off!!

4:01 pm

smaller

ah man! that hurt. thanks haz

4:01 pm

Karys

no Deeha....not sure about that either yet.

4:02 pm

Haz1558

You're welcome, smaller, those critters are elusive.

4:02 pm

Karys

Mitch, I have to tell you I made my first bracelet !

4:02 pm

Haz1558

Jewellery wars.....

4:02 pm

FMitch

Karys that is excellent news, you didn't hang around!

4:03 pm

Karys

was Mitch got me 'inspired' !

4:03 pm

Karys

I had to do a practice one, now I have more idea.

4:03 pm

Karys

But now, I want to have a go at little cards !

4:03 pm

Haz1558

That's great - everybody's becoming very creative.

4:03 pm

Atalante

basically, people either swap cards one to one, like I send one to FM adn she sends one to me, or there can be a group swap - where say 10 babblers get involved, and I make 1 card, and it goes to 1 of those `10 babblers, or any combination really

4:04 pm

Haz1558

So could I do a fancy recipe card? Does doing it on the computer render it null and void?

4:05 pm

Atalante

the cards are a very good size for everyone, because *anyone* can fill a 3.5" x 2.5" card if they want. but you can still get really beautiful and original things in that space

4:05 pm

Karys

So, if I get creative again this week and make little cards do I have to make a certain amount all the same ?

4:05 pm

Deeha

I wouldnt mind having a go too. Let us know if there is to be an 'event'.

4:05 pm

Haz1558

Ah, there are rules about size..... A boiled egg recipe card?

4:05 pm

Karys

Not according to the info Haz, puters are acceptable

4:05 pm

meliae

could I have a clue for the ca 7/44 please, and hello everyone

4:06 pm

FMitch

There are no rules really apart from the size you can make whatever design in any medium you want, is that right Ata?

4:06 pm

Atalante

basically the only rule with ATCs is they should be 3.5" x 2.5", but hey, even that's bendable LOL

4:06 pm

Vicuna

I am making completely different ones for everyone, Ata made variations on a theme.

4:06 pm

Haz1558

I should look up the info then.

4:06 pm

Haz1558

ca7/44 - combine a means of transport with the price you pay for a ride in it.

4:06 pm

Karys

You see, this suits me, I can do 'small', but lose it on large !

4:07 pm

Atalante

they've evolved into a lot more, but the original purpose was simply to swap art with friends, without making the process too arduous for all concerned. so everyone gets beautiful pieces of art, but mini :)

4:07 pm

Deeha

I do small too, anything nitpicky suits me!!

4:07 pm

meliae

thank you

4:07 pm

Vicuna

There were 7 Babblers signed up in the swap stidmama originally organized, but FMitch is sort of doing it on the side, and we're gossipping about it in the chat a lot in hope of drawing other people in...

4:07 pm

Haz1558

You're welcome, meliae.

4:08 pm

FMitch

Deeha, we have been posting cards to eachother.

Karys thats what appealed to me as you can try out different mediums.

4:08 pm

Karys

Please may I join ?

4:08 pm

Vicuna

Yay, Karys!

4:08 pm

Atalante

of course, karys! *hugs* talk to stidmama, she's officially In Charge

4:09 pm

Deeha

I havr got so many hobbies on the go at the moment but this rteally intrigues me. Might even get my pans and paints out again

4:09 pm

Vicuna

(Hmm... have to get thinking about another card, then, don't I!)

4:09 pm

Atalante

and as fm says, you can just *play*. I've done cards that are stencils, just words written on the cards, watercolours, pencils, all sorts of things. I've seen amazing cards with fabric samples, stickers, everything

4:09 pm

Karys

Thank you, I will, now I have a big problem, bracelets, artwork, Babble, housework, husband....

4:10 pm

Deeha

forget the last two..............!!!!

4:10 pm

Vicuna

You can certainly drop housework from the list, at the very least.

4:11 pm

Karys

Can't forget the last Deeha, only just got him, he's new yet !

4:11 pm

FMitch

Yay Deeha, dust off yr paint brushes.

Haz get Spangle to make paw prints, you could use those :)

Vicuna

AAAARRRGH! Printer not working in a different way now!!!!

4:11 pm

Atalante

what's housework?

4:12 pm

Vicuna

Yeah. Mine's pretty nonexistant. I had the father-in-law staying for the past week, so I tried to make it look presentable. Really I did...

4:12 pm

Haz1558

fr5/16 - plural word relating to the tongue. fr plus an old fashioned woman's name (Mrs Sharples)

4:12 pm

FMitch

Dunno Ata, sounds foreign to me.

4:12 pm

Karys

Could have forgotten him this week, have hardly seen him, am golf widow as well today.

4:12 pm

Haz1558

Have you seen the size of Spangle's paws? No way would they fit!

4:13 pm

Atalante

oh it is! strange cyclist people going mad in the kent countryside

4:13 pm

Deeha

I am tempted Atalante must look up the route. It must be about a once in a lifetime event eh?

4:13 pm

Atalante

nose prints then :)

4:14 pm

Vicuna

Wait... the Tour de France is in Kent this year?!?

4:14 pm

Karys

just going to get a drink

4:14 pm

FMitch

... or fold paw print in half vertically and stick to card so you see 1/2 on the front and 1/2 on the back

4:14 pm

Atalante

yeah ... its coming up the really straight road from the M20 to Canterbury. we're going to try and find a place to watch there. just to say we were there!

4:14 pm

Sandieangel

anybody got a clue for the oc5/12 - got the one relating to the sea

4:14 pm

Haz1558

Those French have no sense of direction.

4:14 pm

Haz1558

The Tour de France was in Ireland once, or was I dreaming?

4:15 pm

Atalante

I think it was, yes

4:15 pm

FMitch

I remember watching the Milk Race when i was little, great blur of speeding colour and then gone.

4:15 pm

Vicuna

oc5/12 - o + The sixth day of ----tion

4:15 pm

Deeha

where do they go from Canterbury? Straight down the channel tunnel?!

4:15 pm

Haz1558

oc5/12 - oc plus the beginnings of not false, or Spanish for royal

4:15 pm

4:16 pm

Sandieangel

4:16 pm

Atalante

4:16 pm

Vicuna

Ata, if you're in the crowd, hold up a little "Babble" sign or something when the cameras pan over you.

4:16 pm

Atalante

hobbit will be there, just watch out for a black spaniel trying to trip up the cyclists!

4:17 pm

meliae

PR 7/36 please

probably, i thought double cream was available all over the world

5:44 pm

carleekat

i've never heard of it

5:44 pm

tinks

we do get whipping gream here - not sure of the difference, you can use double to whip

5:44 pm

tinks

ooooh, that sounds bad!!

5:44 pm

carleekat

but am wondering if it makes a "stiffer" whipped topping..whipping cream is very light once whipped

5:45 pm

tinks

It is quite heavy, lovely on top of gooey puddings, trifles etc

5:46 pm

tinks

Otherwise just poured as a lovely creamy gloop

5:46 pm

carleekat

ok..well we whip whipping cream...but..it is pretty "light" it stays stiff..but is very light

5:47 pm

carleekat

clotted cream

5:47 pm

tinks

I guess that must be the difference, both whip, double whips thicker....

5:47 pm

I think like most brit reality tv - they are all about getting the public to phone vote, and so get money from the calls. Your shows seem to be more show based and don't charge in the event that you can vote - thinking American Idol on that one

6:13 pm

Cathyar

lol feather! floam!

6:13 pm

Housemates get tasks to determine how much money they have to spend on supplies

evanonut

7:41 pm

Jacula

Lots of those (recycled teenagers) on the day we went there. Most where wearing their gnome hats. Only a couple of ladies refused, saying it would 'spoil' their hair. (Hair that was set & lacquered to within an inch of it's life and wouldn't move in a gale force wind! Spoilsports!) They ask you to wear gnome hats as you go round so that you don't frighten the resident gnomes.:)

7:41 pm

7:50 pm

lbdawger

i'm not overly fond of them, mostly cuz of my allergies, but this dude is fun to watch. he was down in our back area nose to nose with a deer the other day.

7:51 pm

Jacula

feather - so far this season I've been presented with 2 baby blackbirds, 3 baby sparrows, a squab (a baby pigeon - wondered what the hell that was! Looked like a baby Dodo!), countless mice (both dead, nearly dead and alive) and a very bad-tempered shrew (well, who could blame it?) that bit me when I tried to rescue it.

7:52 pm

featherbee

poor shrew! lol, what a collection!

7:52 pm

Jacula

Never got chance to do 'The Taming of The Shrew', as the shrew got eaten. (Not by me, I hasten to add.)

7:52 pm

featherbee

we get mouse heads randomly deposited around the house. it's a lovely sight.

7:53 pm

GroovyKiwi

good afternoon and happy babbling everyone

7:53 pm

Jacula

feather - have you noticed that cats never eat the gall bladder (well I think that's what that little yellow thing is) or the feet or tail ends?

7:54 pm

Jacula

Hellow, Kiwi.

7:54 pm

lbdawger

hi Kiwi

7:54 pm

evanonut

i don't notice anything like that jac, i step around it and pretend i didn't see anything.

7:54 pm

featherbee

that's what that thing is? eww.

7:54 pm

Jacula

Nutty - I generally clear them away (or their remains) for a 'bin burial'.

7:55 pm

featherbee

random entrails all seem the same to me.

7:55 pm

lbdawger

gross anatomy of mice...i'll be back in a bit when the topic changes.

7:55 pm

Jacula

Sorry, lbd!

7:55 pm

Jacula

8:52 pm

pam

8:52 pm

renfield

is nutty buddy raising he** again?

8:52 pm

Jacula

pam - to be honest, I'm not sure that anything we do as human beings, other than ruining rain forests, actually makes that much difference to the state of play re the climate of the planet. If you look at the geologists' charts, all we have done is come towards the very end of yet another mini Ice Age and what we are experiencing now, weatherwise, is quite normal for that.

8:52 pm

stidmama

hoist the mainsail! lower the the jib! haul anchor! batten hatches! ahoy! avast! arrrrr.

8:53 pm

dawg!

8:54 pm

renfield

hey stid!

8:54 pm

Jacula

pam - exactly. Those do make a difference but not as much as you might think. I wish I wasn't on my 'naked, alien computer'. If I was plugged into my old one, I could show your the geological stuff.

8:55 pm

pam

I have looked at some of it, jac, I know that we are not as a species eradicating the environmental soundness. But I think we are not acting as responsibly as we know we should

8:55 pm

pam

Large companies, with resources, should be more mindful of waste disposal

8:55 pm

evanonut

holy heck is he spoiled now

8:56 pm

evanonut

he wants his pills in a cup like the hospital does.

8:56 pm

LynnNate08

8:58 pm

Jacula

pam - It would help a lot if the 'developed world', when it invades areas of untroubled rain forest with untroubled people and then troubles the people with images of the 'modern world'... the money, money, money world, would not just tease them with the prospect and leave them to find their own way, but help and advise them how best to do it without ruining their immediate environment. Of course they're going to chop the trees down, with no better advice.

8:58 pm

stidgmere

Oooh. So now the good behavior starts. We do not come from pirate stock--I've been told it was horserustlers.

8:58 pm

stidmama

Mother, may I present my dear friends nut and ren? they're not reall y pirates...

Jacula

9:00 pm

stidmama

*grin* she's not kidding girls. If you ask nicely she might throw in the bailing bucket...

9:00 pm

9:01 pm

Janiece

9:04 pm

evanonut

i say ren is scurvy, and that we should toss her into the grid wearing mafia shoes.

9:04 pm

Janiece

We're total opposites in some way - he hates fruit with meat (it should be in a pie served with custard!). He hates all the TV programmes I watch, but not all of them, and vice versa.

9:51 pm

jillibus

We learned to take an interest in each other's likes...
