only problem is that hubby and i arent agreeing on this = he just wants to let it blow over and i sure as heck dont

1:55 am

GroovyKiwi

wohoooo half way finally lol

1:55 am

mrpresident

good on you kiwi. the police won't take it lightly

1:56 am

GroovyKiwi

the police have said that unless we can prove kieran DIDNT throw the first punch then they cant do anything

1:56 am

dcseain

i'm with you on this, kiwi. I think hubby has it wrong.

1:57 am

mrpresident

does the bully have a history??

1:57 am

dcseain

has the school no records of the pattern of bullying/abuse?

1:57 am

GroovyKiwi

oh a big one - he only got suspended for 1 day

1:57 am

ursh

Groovy - we had a bad spate of school bullying earlier this year - tv program picked it up and found first team rugby players are taking steroids causing bad aggression issues and lots of fights and injuries and even a death so our schools have had to look into the drug issues in sport

1:58 am

~ Natasa ~

Hi all

1:58 am

dcseain

his history is not enough to claim self defence on kieran's part?

1:58 am

GroovyKiwi

good eve natasa happy babbling

1:58 am

GroovyKiwi

guess not dc

1:58 am

dcseain

hi, natasa

1:58 am

mrpresident

persue it kiwi... don't let those pricks get away with intimdation... they will only keep doing it

1:58 am

GroovyKiwi

but im going back to see the youth aid officer on monday

1:59 am

dcseain

hing is a food, but not acceptable.

1:59 am

ursh

The "hitter" is into a strength sport - they need to test him for steroids

2:00 am

mrpresident

yes ursh, absolutely!

2:00 am

~ Natasa ~

Hello everyone

2:00 am

dcseain

having been on medical steroids part of last year, and had some anger issues, you're absolutely right, ursh!

2:00 am

GroovyKiwi

i have friends who have friends in the same boxing club and they said that they would sort him out

2:00 am

GroovyKiwi

because hes using his skills outside of the ring he can be busted for it

2:01 am

dcseain

well, that's something.

2:01 am

mrpresident

i hope that kiwihubby sees that your son needs support, not to turn the other cheek... it is awful to be bullied

2:02 am

GroovyKiwi

its not so much that mrp he knows i have a very short fuse and thinks i need to calm down

2:03 am

ursh

Well good luck Kiwi - the investigations in SA showed clearly bullying was often sport/drug related and in all the more serious cases the "bully" was a first team, usually rugby player

2:03 am

lynxxx

what does your son want to happen Kiwi?

2:04 am

GroovyKiwi

he doesnt know

2:04 am

GroovyKiwi

he knows he wants to go back to school but it seems that the bully is out to get him again when he gets back or so his mates tell him

2:05 am

~ Natasa ~

Kiwi does your son get bullied?

2:05 am

pigeonman

Thank god for the three letter endings.

2:06 am

GroovyKiwi

2:06 am

~ Natasa ~

2:07 am

dcseain

useful skill that, kiwi, i study Bagwa and TaiQiFa for that purpose.

2:07 am

GroovyKiwi

we are looking at hapkido

2:08 am

dcseain

hapkido is a good form for defense. I have friends in Colorado who study that, and we have many schools for that here, too.

2:10 am

3:13 am

sprite

how dare they!

3:13 am

herinfernallady

I know rude. I was talking pretty tulips

3:14 am

dcseain

my browser does that at home sometimes, the chat log bogs my ISP, making the browser choke.

3:14 am

sprite

no manners, those kickers.

3:14 am

herinfernallady

I thought it was babble as even licketys stopped working

3:15 am

sprite

I used to have that problem, but no more with Lickety's browser. I don't even use the 2nd letter tips, but I love the smoothness of how it works... and the lickety Add feature... and of course the extra fireworks, lol.

3:15 am

sprite

it works fine here, lady

3:15 am

herinfernallady

I couldnt even log into licketys or mozilla or ie7

3:15 am

3:20 am

mrpresident

franmag sent me a whole lot of videos on the day of her sister's accident for me to put up in babble fireworks next week... should I still do it???

Or should I ask someone else to do videos??

3:20 am

~ Natasa ~

hi mrp

3:20 am

sprite

jilli, in a short while lickety will add the links to the list and you can see them anyway :)

3:20 am

dcseain

i vote for use them, as she bothered to send them, even on that day.

3:20 am

herinfernallady

Mr Pres i would do it maybe say Frans sister Tribute?

3:21 am

sprite

oh mrP... I really don't know. Maybe better to hold on to them for a while?
I think my selection can bind us over for a little bit longer?

3:21 am

jillibus

I'll try to do that sprite, and yes, I think you should put up fran's choices

3:21 am

dcseain

how would we do frans sister tribute?

3:22 am

herinfernallady

Well i mean err. Fran sent them thus i think um errr errr

3:22 am

dcseain

any of you have the last ni5/12?

3:22 am

dcseain

3:23 am

herinfernallady

I think i know what i mean

3:23 am

herinfernallady

NO more Q words

3:24 am

dcseain

Finally, the AC is kicking back in. It was way toasty for a bit. I shudder to think what it'll be like next month when they turn on the heat.

3:24 am

herinfernallady

DC is your office Season controlled not temp controlled?

3:25 am

sprite

and they are not all funny, jilli... some are quite serious, but interesting. Yesterday's was one of my favorites, a savant autistic man telling about how he experiences numbers and other things. It is amazing.

3:25 am

herinfernallady

holly crap i just saw 62 S words

3:25 am

dcseain

the norm here is AC 15 Apr-15 Oct, heat rest of year

3:25 am

dcseain

we're in a temporary room, 45 computers and upto as many peoplo, and twice as many flat-screen monitors

3:26 am

dcseain

3:26 am

herinfernallady

bler

3:26 am

dcseain

the 52 7s didn't scare you?

3:26 am

herinfernallady

no

3:27 am

dcseain

happily, i work nights, so not more than 12 of us at a time.

3:27 am

herinfernallady

thats 58 of them and most will be ER or S or ING

3:27 am

sprite

not at all, dc... they are so promising! And there is this ending that helps a lot for most, lol.

3:27 am

dcseain

yes, thi ING has been good for those.

3:28 am

sprite

penalty box, dc?

3:28 am

herinfernallady

and it doesnt help that i am finding words quicker than i can type in

3:28 am

sprite

slow down the brain and speed up the monkeys, lady, lol

3:28 am

herinfernallady

3:34 am

sprite

I love it when real biggies are relatively normal words :)

3:35 am

dcseain

the er10 was new to all of us here at work. We'd never seen it before.

3:36 am

sprite

true, I did not know that one either. But the 9 and 11 are relatively 'normal' to me.

3:36 am

dcseain

i agree.

3:36 am

dcseain

i've still 2 mor 9s to go.

3:36 am

sprite

same here

3:37 am

sprite

oh, wait, only one. One is very close in meaning to the 11, lol.

3:37 am

herinfernallady

fcking stupid sob i just got booted

3:38 am

herinfernallady

IF i get booted again. Farewell ill be back later

3:38 am

dcseain

yes, that's the 9 i have.

3:38 am

lynxxx

Infernal - it's not just you, I am having Babble go down too (at the same time as you)

3:38 am

herinfernallady

mmmm

3:39 am

herinfernallady

That was the pg version of what im thinking

3:39 am

dcseain

so it's an issue in Oz only apprantly. May be a router outage over there.

3:39 am

sprite

dc: there is one 9 there that has the same form, only not again. The other 9 has a little bit the same meaning... making warm again.

3:40 am

herinfernallady

Sprite is it another RE 9? as in 2 re 9s

3:40 am

sprite

yes lady

3:40 am

herinfernallady

mmm k

3:40 am

sprite

one is ra9 and one is re9

3:41 am

dcseain

ty, sprite, i'd not looked beyond the d.

3:41 am

herinfernallady

and the third?

3:41 am

sprite

yw :)

3:41 am

sprite

no third yet here

3:41 am

herinfernallady

ok

3:41 am

dcseain

re9/84 is the last

3:42 am

herinfernallady

Can i have a clue for that pleasE>

3:42 am

dcseain

i don't have it yet, but i have either side of it. If i get it, i'll clue.

3:43 am

sprite

I keep wanting to draw that T and that H together.

3:44 am

dcseain

i keep wanting quiet, bit it's phantasmagoric today. I want requiem, too, but alas.

3:45 am

herinfernallady

nearly at 100

3:45 am

sprite

lol, i only found 126 so far

3:45 am

herinfernallady

I have been booted twice

3:49 am

sprite

this is really fun. If one ending does not fit, the other does, most of the time. Wonderful.

3:50 am

herinfernallady

I was calling the tulips Sprite flowers today

3:50 am

dcseain

wow. my last 148 words are worth almost as much as the first 220.

3:50 am

sprite

awwwww lady that is so sweet!

3:50 am

herinfernallady

They reminded me of you.

3:51 am

herinfernallady

There was this awesome fire coloured tulip.

3:51 am

sprite

owwww! I love those!

3:52 am

herinfernallady

The visitors were really rude. There is a section of tulips below the main area that you could sit among ( if you wanted, i didnt) and people were siting on the beds in the main display area despite the big 'stick to the main path' sign.

3:52 am

sprite

some people...

3:53 am

dcseain

oh, much larger display than the one here in the spring.

3:53 am

herinfernallady

This is were we went

3:53 am

herinfernallady

http://www.tulipfestival.com.au/

3:54 am

dcseain

oh my! we've nothing of that scale. Our bitty tulip display competes with the cherry blossoms, though, so i'm not surprised that it's smaller.

3:54 am

sprite

wow, that looks like holland indeed!

3:55 am

dcseain

looks exquisite.

3:55 am

herinfernallady

Its very pretty. Lots and lots of people. I said to the boy they needed to create a talking plant so it barks at people ' get of the garden' My boy bought me 5 tulips too

3:56 am

o-o

re 9.84 -- add to stop (as in, it is 5PM; time to **** for the day); and the participle or gerund ending

3:56 am

sprite

LOLLLL good idea.
And which tulips did you get?

3:57 am

sprite

thanks BabbleRabble, will go look. First idea did not work... not the Q word :)

3:57 am

herinfernallady

um. I got me a red one, yellow one, queen of the night, a pink one and an orange one he picked them

3:57 am

herinfernallady

Thanks babble

3:57 am

dcseain

d'oh. i'd tried w/out the gerund, and didn't thing it'd take it with. ty, babrab

3:58 am

lynxxx

it is Sprite

3:58 am

sprite

wonderful, lady! Can you grow them from bulbs where you live? Or is it too hot?

3:58 am

sprite

is it? Then why doesn't it work here?

3:58 am

herinfernallady

No its not too hot to grow them but it was very sweet to get flowers

3:59 am

sprite

yes, a sweet gift indeed

3:59 am

jillibus

thanks for the re9, babrab -- how about the 11?

3:59 am

dcseain

a spot of copper, like a penny, in the water keeps them fresh longer.

3:59 am

It was a lovely day outside too.

Sprite - you may be trying it with a double t? single only (its actually not ending something but more payment for something)

4:01 am

yesssss that is what I try... and it does NOT take!

4:02 am

sprite

dc, I have that one. I mean the one BabbleRabble clued first.

4:02 am

4:35 am

sprite

guys, I am kinda certain there is a word like panini... but it will not take. Am I delusional or not?

4:35 am

Haz1558

It is, FMitch, though one to catch the unwary. I was caught out talking about control pa5/12. Who would have thought lingerie could prove a downfall?

4:35 am

FMitch

I think it's a double n.
LOL Did the elastic go?

4:35 am

sprite

most Victorian people, Haz.

4:35 am

Haz1558

The Italians love their paninis but maybe enable isn't cosmopolitan enough.

4:36 am

sprite

ok, thanks Haz :)

4:36 am

sprite

Haz could not control her control pa5...

4:36 am

Haz1558

No, elastic holding firm. I was preaching self-righteously about the need to wear control pa5/12 to avoid putting endings in the chat log.

4:36 am

dcseain

so enable says we may have tacos, but not panini. wtf.

4:37 am

herinfernallady

4:47 am

sprite

4:47 am

FMitch

There is something very satisfying about the spread of grey across the tiles.

4:48 am

Haz1558

Yes, you will. It's only someone with a sc8 knowledge of vocabulary than you who would have difficulty.

4:48 am

movieman

wb, lady

5:37 am

sprite

5:37 am

herinfernallady

got nandos i swear the woman that runs the place is evil

5:37 am

dcseain

WTG Sprite! :D

5:37 am

loredana

woopee!!! Sprite well done

5:38 am

movieman

Good for you Sprite!!!!!!

5:38 am

herinfernallady

Woot sprite

5:38 am

loredana

well i would not eat her food Herin

5:38 am

movieman

I may have to cheat to finish this one!!!!!!

5:38 am

sprite

cheating how?

5:39 am

herinfernallady

Sadly it was that or macas or bain mari of death

5:39 am

movieman

By using the word list and the first letter clues

5:39 am

loredana

lol herin

5:39 am

sprite

as atalante told me when I was a babble rookie: only looking up the actual words is cheating. The rest is... research :)

5:40 am

dcseain

shift turnover and nearly time to head home, with 92 left. catch yall later. :)

5:41 am

herinfernallady

I use more words and word match. I dont class anything like that cheating. Cheating is using a program to solve this thing

5:41 am

sprite

bye dc!

5:41 am

herinfernallady

bye dc

5:41 am

loredana

bye dc take care see you soon

5:42 am

dcseain

i agree with lady. {poof}

5:42 am

sprite

I sometimes use a2z. Not even that easy without 2nd letter clues, but very helpful.

5:42 am

movieman

In that case, he4/5 I go then!!!!!

5:42 am

herinfernallady

I dont use the list till i have about 7 - 16 left. I use more words and enter HE** and words pop up and i hunt them down

5:43 am

sprite

ok guys, I have to go. Have fun and count your blessings. I count mine and you are one of them.

5:43 am

herinfernallady

Take care Sprite

5:43 am

movieman

Or I could just use my mate punster's grid for assistance!!!!!

5:43 am

o-o

be well, sprite

5:45 am

loredana

bye Princess take care hugs

5:45 am

Andree

bye sprite

5:53 am

jwr

eq(the 'u' is a side dish that comes with the dinner) + Thing + unwelcome picnic guest

5:54 am

jwr

expanding Thing = what one calls a Thing

5:55 am

herinfernallady

ta

5:56 am

jwr

I know what ta means -- is there an informal reply? I've always wondered...

5:56 am

herinfernallady

Shortened thank you. I think informal. Im stuffing my face at the moment

5:56 am

jwr

piner

5:59 am

Eva

good morning all. jwr, I don't get the "u"that is a side dish?

5:59 am

herinfernallady

Hi Eva and Merp

6:00 am

Eva

hi herin

6:00 am

jwr

sorry, the 'piner' was a slip of the fingers. Speaking of shortening, Dear herinfernallady, do you have a shorter name? The "ta" is understood ; what I was wondering was whether there was an informal "you're welcome."

6:01 am

herinfernallady

It was a shortened thank you and Herin is ok

6:01 am

jwr

Hi Eva -- too smart for me britches. All I meant was that the "u" came along with the "q" gratis.

6:02 am

Eva

ah so

6:02 am

herinfernallady

Is there just 3 SH words please

6:05 am

NonoNanette

Truffle Pie question....does anyone know what size pan is needed?

8:22 am

herinfernallady

um

8:22 am

hurshy

really big, so you can have lots of truffle pie

8:23 am

lideola

if the pan size isn't specificied in the recipe, that usually means a standard 8 inch pie pan

8:23 am

dcseain

i'd imagine round, possibly deep dish if you have the volume.

8:24 am

herinfernallady

Um make up the mix and then see. I was trying to think of the size in inches

8:24 am

chiley

Thanks

8:25 am

grannyrose

8:25 am

herinfernallady

HI RMC i was again in you neck of the words at th tulip farm

8:26 am

8:54 am

NonoNanette

woohooo Lori, Congrats!!

8:54 am

Haz1558

No, it's not the he4/5 you're adding the e to, it's the ra9 that is the description of heat or light given off in this manner.

8:54 am

hurshy

ohhh

8:54 am

LoriP

that was a fun, but frustrating grid.

8:54 am

Haz1558

Haz1558

A dinosaur to climb down? At least he let you.

9:05 am

Atalante

9:06 am

Haz1558

A hazard, though. I'd have stayed at the top and whimpered.

9:06 am

9:24 am

Jacula

'Hi & 'bye, herin. Sleep well.

9:25 am

grannyrose

sorry guys and gals, my PC just went on the fritz. had to reboot in order to say goodbye properly.

9:25 am

hurshy

she didn't say 62 letters, jac, she said a letter have 62 words :)

9:25 am

hurshy

ok i cannot figure this ha7/32, is it very weird?

9:25 am

emusing

yeah, i meant the s has 62 words!

9:25 am

mom23

ha7/31 - in more of a rush/hurry

9:27 am

pabtrek

just luck hurshy

9:28 am

hurshy

oh, you shouldn't say that, you should come up with some outlandish reason so we all think you're brilliant

9:28 am

Atalante

when are you going to put marty back up? he's much more decorative than that man!

9:28 am

hurshy

marty is up at sudoku all the time

9:28 am

hurshy

and james roday is VERY decorative and yummy

9:29 am

pabtrek

okay, let me see, considering the clues you had asked for earlier, i deduced the only ha you could be missing was the ha7/32, how's that

9:29 am

Atalante

miiiitten then

9:29 am

wasgij5

e

9:29 am

Haz1558

But can marty REALLY compete?

9:29 am

hurshy

marty is the handsomest of all the things in the world

9:29 am

Atalante

not with the cat of glory, certainly

9:30 am

hurshy

but i am a sex-deprived woman and i like looking at james roday, so there he stays.

9:30 am

Haz1558

Unless he was the original, the inspiration, the muse.

9:30 am

Jacula

LOL, hursh.

9:31 am

Jacula

hursh - this is about the only net site where you could say that and not receive a load of suggestive e-mails after.

9:31 am

Haz1558

You haven't seen her e-mail inbox though.

9:31 am

hurshy

lol, i suppose so - i am not on a lot of net sites. lucky we have so few men

9:32 am

Jacula

True, Haz.

9:32 am

Atalante

she might be saying that deliberately to garner interest!

9:32 am

Jacula

She might indeed, Ata.

9:32 am

Haz1558

Then we'll have to keep an eye on her.

9:33 am

Atalante

dont we always?

9:33 am

hurshy

i'm saying it cause it's so. but, if any of the few men who babble do happen to look like james roday, they should speak up.

9:33 am

Haz1558

The problem is the time zone. We have to sleep sometime.

9:33 am

Atalante

where'storgone when you need him?

9:33 am

Jacula

*Waits for all the men to appear...*

9:34 am

rururocks

I haven't a clue as to who James Roday is to start

9:34 am

hurshy

but one never knows who's lurking, haz, as you found out with fmitch last night

9:34 am

hurshy

<--- james roday

9:34 am

Atalante

fm? lurking? never!

9:34 am

Haz1558

That's true. Caught about caught out....

9:34 am

Jacula

and I caught her out, too!:)

9:35 am

Haz1558

The shame of it all.

9:35 am

Jacula

Incidentally, Haz... have you checked your napper for foreign objects today? *grins*

9:35 am

hurshy

y'all are so hard on haz. whereas, i was as gentle as could be.

9:35 am

Atalante

what happened?

9:35 am

hurshy

i used the word "quandary" and haz thought i had spelt it wrong

9:35 am

Haz1558

I bear up bravely. No sunglasses atop the head.

9:36 am

hurshy

she asked if it was a US spelling

9:36 am

Jacula

Oh yes... kwondree.

9:36 am

hurshy

and i very nicely said, why, how do you spell it?

9:36 am

EspritdJean

isn't it quandry?

9:36 am

Haz1558

That's what I thought, Esprit. It's quandary. Like boundary.

9:37 am

Jacula

Yup, it has 2 a's.

9:37 am

Atalante

just outrageous, haz

9:37 am

EspritdJean

I'll be dipped, you're right

9:38 am

Haz1558

I know. I was ra9/72 blushes.

9:39 am

hurshy

oh dear, we are too funny

9:39 am

Jacula

Thanks for that 9, Haz.

9:39 am

Atalante

I bet! next you'll think that adding an e to a 4 letter word gives a 10 letter word!

9:39 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, Jacula.

9:39 am

hurshy

lol

9:39 am

Jacula

I thought the discovery of the sunglasses was the funniest.:D

9:40 am

Haz1558

Ah, but she understood once I explained nicely.

9:40 am

Haz1558

Maybe I'm turning into Posh Spice - sunglasses ready at all times?

9:41 am

Atalante

that would be sunglasses *on*. even at night

9:41 am

hurshy

is she the one with david beckham?

9:41 am

Jacula

Nah, Haz, you just forgot they were there. *grins* It's her age, you know.

9:41 am

Atalante

thats the one

9:41 am

Jacula

Hursh - yes.

9:41 am

Haz1558

That's the one, hurshy.

9:41 am

hurshy

she's pretty

9:41 am

Atalante

she's hideous

9:42 am

Haz1558

It's my age - it has to be that because I can't blame Fmitch.

9:42 am

Jacula

pretty awful, hursh! She was okay before she became a plastic stick.

9:42 am

flosey

good morning all, am just going to dive into this grid - will have to head back to bed soon

9:42 am

Jacula

Haz - don't worry. You're in good company.

9:42 am

Atalante

yes, she used to be pretty

9:43 am

Jacula

Hi, flosey. Good luck.

9:43 am

Haz1558

In the blue corner, we have Atalante. In the red corner, we have hurshy. A clean fight ladies.

9:43 am

hurshy

i dunno, i only saw her when ali g interviewed her. she seemed pretty and she laughed a lot

9:43 am

hurshy

well who wouldn't laugh a lot, he's a riot

9:43 am

Atalante

oh ali g. she probably laughed cos she didnt understand him

9:44 am

Haz1558

I look at Posh Spice and I look at someone like Judi Dench - so much older but more beautiful, to my mind.

9:44 am

Jacula

Right. 89 words are hiding from me and it's time I got back to the gr5/16. BBL.

9:44 am

hurshy

curses on s's!

9:44 am

Jacula

Or Phyllida Law, Haz.

9:44 am

Jacula

TTFN

9:44 am

Atalante

I agree. Or Emma Thompson.

9:44 am

wasgij5

h

9:45 am

hurshy

or fred dalton thompson

9:45 am

Haz1558

Yes! She has such character and beauty in her face. She's Emma Thompson's mother so it bodes well for her.

9:45 am

Atalante

its probably different over here, hurshy. you're not all fed up with her. we get her on the front page every time she takes a cr*p

9:45 am

hurshy

ohhh, she's your paris hilton

9:46 am

chiley

Really? Judi Dench is Emma Thompson's mother?? I never knew that

Atalante

9:46 am

Haz1558

No, Phyllida Law is Emma Thompson's mother.

9:46 am

hurshy

i dunno, i don't think anyone could be as annoying as paris

9:47 am

Atalante

just you wait .....!

9:47 am

Jacula

No, chiley, Phyllida Law is Emma T's mum. Judi Dench is Finty Williams' mum.

9:47 am

chiley

Oh...I misunderstood

9:47 am

Jacula

Really going now. *poof*

9:47 am

hurshy

she never says anything but "that's hot". and she wanted to trademark the phrase!

9:47 am

Haz1558

Bye Jacula!

9:48 am

Atalante

Victoria just pouts and wants worldwide fame for it

9:48 am

Haz1558

Now, now, Atalante. Don't forget her singing career.

9:48 am

Atalante

oh! how could I forget!

9:48 am

Haz1558

And she's a great fashion icon now.

9:48 am

Tinascratch2

Anyone offering up clues to the sc8's, pretty pls?

9:48 am

Atalante

and her books. such a great author

9:49 am

Haz1558

And she writes books to tell us how to dress.

9:49 am

Haz1558

'Girls, get yourself down to Versace, quick smart'

9:49 am

Haz1558

'Here's a great plastic surgeon you MUST try'

9:50 am

Atalante

heres a great diet! dont eat for a year!

9:50 am

carra

hi everyone!

9:50 am

EspritdJean

tina

9:50 am

carra

i think paris did trademark "that's hot" even sued some company for using it

9:50 am

NonoNanette

hi carra

9:50 am

Haz1558

'When you get tired of those shoes, buy another pair. Who wants to wearthe same pair of shoes for more than 2 hours?'

9:50 am

carra

hi nono

9:50 am

Atalante

'but actually I eat fish and chips every day! I'm just so lucky to have a great body'

9:50 am

EspritdJean

she tried to trademark it, but I don't think successfully

9:51 am

hurshy

i don't pay much attention to paris or i would join the quote competition

9:51 am

hurshy

i'm SURE she's worse.

9:51 am

Haz1558

This is Victoria talking, hurshy.

9:51 am

Tinascratch2

thx esprit - got that one without too much squinting and whining :)

9:51 am

hurshy

i know

9:52 am

hurshy

and i want to demonstrate how paris is wrse

9:52 am

EspritdJean

:-)

9:52 am

EspritdJean

paris is a waste of oxygen

9:52 am

Atalante

they are both horrendous

9:52 am

carra

. "That's Hot!" (Paris Hilton) - Hilton owns the trademark to the phrase "That's hot," which was registered on Feb. 13th.

9:53 am

Haz1558

So, waitresses, presenting a hot curry will have to find something else to say?

9:54 am

Atalante

maybe "that's hot" is different. just de-emphasise the h

9:54 am

Haz1558

'This is ra9/72 he4/5. Please take care.'

9:54 am

hurshy

i say "heavens to betsy!" a lot, maybe i should trademark it.

9:55 am

Atalante

betsy's probably already trademarked it

9:55 am

hurshy

i just don't understand how someone could give her a trademark for a phrase that other people have used before. it maketh no sense.

9:55 am

Haz1558

I bet Betsy got there first.

9:55 am

Atalante

ha ha haz, I did send you the explosive dogs sign didn't I?

9:55 am

hurshy

lookit the great minds thinking alike

9:56 am

magzel

ac 8 please

9:56 am

Haz1558

You did, Atalante. And yes, our minds must run on similar lines most of the time.

9:56 am

Haz1558

ac8/50 - if you have ac5/12 - add the singular date in March that Caesar was to beware of.

9:57 am

hurshy

gah! how can i not find any more s's when i have 11 left! i am a dolt! (TM)

9:57 am

carra

9:58 am

toadandtoadette

oh thank you Haz

9:58 am

KristineNas

<gasp> 368

9:58 am

Tinascratch2

I hear you. I feel completely lost today on this! 4 ltr words are eluding me (eyes rolling at myself)

9:58 am

Atalante

that ac8 was my first word today :)

9:58 am

magzel

thanks haz

9:58 am

carra

ack

9:58 am

hurshy

figures.

9:58 am

Haz1558

You're welcome.

9:58 am

Atalante

and I've put the explosive dog sign in my pic for everyone's amusement

9:58 am

KristineNas

you can say that again

9:59 am

Haz1558

Just to confirm that our minds do think differently, ac8 was NOT my first word today.

9:59 am

carra

cant concentrate with all this banging..... since 730am... its 11 now lol

9:59 am

carra

they are putting new siding on the house

9:59 am

Atalante

wow, carra. tantric banging?

10:00 am

Tinascratch2

Eek, carra - how can you stand it?

10:00 am

Haz1558

Ear plugs are great things.

10:01 am

carra

no idea.. but its started to bother me a bit now.. i might go for a walk or something

10:01 am

hurshy

this GRID started to bother me

10:01 am

carra

starting

10:01 am

carra

lol

10:01 am

Tinascratch2

Agreed haz - gotta nice pair of them myself (husband snores like an outboard motor)

10:02 am

Haz1558

I hear you....

10:02 am

Atalante

oooh continuing snoring saga - husband has now been referred for sleep studies. he now thinks its important to sort out as I persuaded him he might have sleep apnoea

10:03 am

Haz1558

He may end up with one of those machines, in that case.

10:03 am

Tinascratch2

Oh, I hope they find some way to help him (and you) out, Atalante. Know lots of folks that have benefitted, including the CPAP machine haz mentions

10:04 am

Atalante

maybe ... we'll see. they have sleep testing machines here that people can bring home and do the studies there, for a few nights. much easier than going to hospital for sleep studies

10:04 am

hurshy

one more word and i can get the list

10:04 am

Atalante

though I got very annoyed with the dr when he said that "social snoring" isn't an issue. to me, its certainly an issue, if not a medical one!

10:04 am

Tinascratch2

what's your criteria for that, hurshy?

10:04 am

wasgij5

d

10:05 am

hurshy

doctors have this weird thing where they don't seem to think that sleep is very important. i had a hard time getting sympathy for my sleep troubles.

10:05 am

Tinascratch2

social snoring not an issue?! puh-lease.

10:05 am

Atalante

they always tell you sleep is important, but never actually help you when you can't sleep

10:05 am

hurshy

oh, it varies tina, today i want to get to 50 left.

10:05 am

Haz1558

He probably means that it's a problem for you. It'll only be tackled if they think that it's a problem for him in not getting enough sleep.

10:06 am

Atalante

yeah, I know. it was irritating though, it felt very dismissive!

10:06 am

Tinascratch2

oh, man. I'm fixin to give up and get the lists now and I've got over a hundred left :)

10:06 am

hurshy

there tis!

10:06 am

Tinascratch2

You are mighty

10:07 am

hurshy

i wouldn't get it now if it weren't that i have to go to my sister's baby shower in not very long.

10:07 am

Haz1558

No, you'd rather torture your brain for hours!

10:08 am

Haz1558

I torture my brain for hours WITH the list.

10:08 am

hurshy

indeed. i love brainal torture

10:08 am

Haz1558

Atalante

11:48 am

72 Temple Owl

11:53 am

Tinascratch2

Trying not to resort to the lists. Must. resist. the. list.

11:53 am

Dorens

i can send you the blue box, owl, but not the bigger diamonds

11:53 am

Dorens

11:53 am

Dorens

i just can't go to it until i have half the words, and i just started.. have a long way to go

72 Temple Owl

12:00 pm

Tinascratch2

vaguely remember high school French :) I'll think about it for few more minutes then beg for another clue if I can't crack it

12:01 pm

Nef

Hi all. Made the mistake of starting before looking at the number of words in the grid today. Please tell me it's an easy grid! (only have 359 left to find! :D

12:01 pm

72 Temple Owl

hey nef, lots of gerunds

12:01 pm

Dorens

72 Temple Owl

12:04 pm

flosey

12:04 pm

Nef

12:05 pm

72 Temple Owl

12:30 pm

grammaterri1

12:32 pm

Nef

Thanks, gramma. I've put in 100 words in 1/2 hour (including the ones in chat) so it helps if people are tolerant today. I need all the help I can get some days! :D

72 Temple Owl

aw good night, liz! se you tomorrow!

3:28 pm

Jacula

Hi, Haz. Where did you spring from?

3:28 pm

Lizsark

3:28 pm

Haz1558

I bounded in, Jacula, like some old-fashioned heroine.

3:29 pm

Haz1558

I'm just looking in to say hello. And have a read back in the chat log archive, of course.

3:29 pm

evanonut

did haz say she has heroin abound?

3:29 pm

Jacula

LOL, Haz. Loins girded, I hope?

3:30 pm

Jacula

I'm sharing the Thornton's choc/fudge bar. It's in my icon.

3:30 pm

Haz1558

No, I said I'm a cricket heroine and I hit a boundary.

3:30 pm

Sandieangel

3:30 pm

meliae

pi 7/40 please

3:30 pm

Haz1558

I take it the bar is delicious?

3:30 pm

jwr

Just up after a rough nite. The grid has become the 2nd most vital activity after waking. Are you over pi6/27 Mel? If not, try the medicine that would have cured Camille, without the terminal vowel.

3:30 pm

Jacula

Yum, yes, Haz.

3:31 pm

Haz1558

I do love Thorntons - their toffee is great as well, though it has to be rationed for the sake of dentistry bills.

3:31 pm

meliae

only pi I have left is the 7

3:32 pm

jwr

sorry, not seeing clearly. It was a qu6/27, not pi. I are not squared yet.

3:34 pm

Haz1558

pi7 - some people are ambitious enough to try to make things small enough to fit on top of one of these.

3:34 pm

Jacula

Haz - I had to give up eating toffee years ago for that very reason. I used to love black treacle toffee. I hated 'Bluebird' toffee, even though I don't (or didn't; the factory's closed down now) live far from the factory. Mind you, I am also near to Cadbury's.:))

3:35 pm

Jacula

Thanks for that pi, Haz.

3:35 pm

Haz1558

Yes, I can agree with you on the treacle toffee. And you're welcome to the pi7.

3:35 pm

Sandieangel

did anyone see my request for a clue to the ha5/12 plz?

3:35 pm

meliae

thank you haz

3:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

nut are you writing your script for next time?

3:36 pm

meliae

Just finished all the QU words who was looking for clues?

3:36 pm

Haz1558

ha5/12 - puts a plural ending on the preceding ha4/5

3:36 pm

Jacula

jwr - Hello again. Don't worry about earlier - we all accidentally type words in and, as a newbie, you're just learning the ropes anyway.

3:36 pm

evanonut

script? i don't script really

3:36 pm

meliae

plural the ha 4/5 Sandie

3:37 pm

Haz1558

72 Temple Owl

3:43 pm

meliae

arggh just made it to the RE words, shall I pour myself a drink now?

3:43 pm

Haz1558

It's strange how babble affects some people and not others. Dr Nut - could some people have been vaccinated against it? How did we miss out on the vaccination programme?

3:43 pm

Jacula

Good id4, Mel.

3:43 pm

72 Temple Owl

at least dr. god could put up a banner - abondon all hope ye who enter he5/5

3:43 pm

3:43 pm

3:43 pm

Haz1558

It depends on the drink, mel.

redshoes

Finonn played her last night, but I already had plans. =(

3:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

SHOES!

3:44 pm

evanonut

3:44 pm

Haz1558

Aha, am I right in deducing that jwr is English?

3:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

i am going to see chris smither - i think.

3:44 pm

meliae

I am thinking a good shot of Scotch is what this grid needs!

3:44 pm

Jacula

Haz - perhaps your hubby could set up a clinic for we not quite humans (Babbleonians) and vaccinate us?

3:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

never mind the grid, hand over that fifth

3:44 pm

Haz1558

I look forward to hearing your (un)scripted answer, Dr Nut.

3:45 pm

meliae

rofl TO

3:45 pm

Jacula

Haz - with words like gawd and going potty, I'd say it's a safe bet jwr is English.

3:45 pm

Haz1558

Jacula - have you SEEN the size of the needles he works with?

3:45 pm

redshoes

we had a concert festival thing a couple of weekends ago.. got me pretty concerted-out. over 130 bands!

3:45 pm

meliae

ooops still need the RA 6/21 please, I get a reprieve before the dreaded RE words

3:45 pm

Haz1558

I thought so - the potty clinched it for me. And dear knows what you'll come back with now.....

3:45 pm

72 Temple Owl

cool! imagine 10 days of that!

3:46 pm

Haz1558

ra6/21 - not quite shining as brightly as ra7/32

3:46 pm

redshoes

3:46 pm

72 Temple Owl

yep

3:46 pm

Jacula

Haz - he must have some teensy weensy needles for hamster etc. It can't be all horse syringes, surely?

3:47 pm

redshoes

wow. sooooo much

3:47 pm

evanonut

phantom - panties

3:47 pm

Haz1558

Well, you're probably right, Jacula, though he injects more heifers than hamsters.

3:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

are you saying you are not using underwear? and it's not really a phantom dear

3:47 pm

Jacula

EEK! Just realised Haz asked me if I've seen the size of her hubby's needle. *Off to get a coffee!*

3:48 pm

meliae

3:51 pm

Jacula

Haz - Oh, yes. It can be true.

3:52 pm

72 Temple Owl

3:52 pm

hurshy

3:52 pm

Sandieangel

3:52 pm

Haz1558

3:52 pm

meliae

3:53 pm

meliae

re 5/14 please the first one

3:53 pm

hurshy

ooh is there going to be a podcast with nut reading babblets? that should be amusing.

3:53 pm

Tinascratch2

Okay, keep having to step away to handle child-related craziness. :) But I see now that I have only 20 lefts!

3:53 pm

Jacula

Haz - I prefer an inspring to and outspring in my mattress any day!

3:53 pm

Sandieangel

Oh ty - finished the i words now.

3:53 pm

jwr

Gotcha Jac! An unregenerate anglophile perhaps. Fell in love with the words -- still the world's greatest children's books -- and the daring concepts of alternate spellings and men riding around in trucks (excuse me, lorries) looking for telly-tax-avoiding antennae. Never got to GB; didn't want to spoil the Dream.

3:53 pm

meliae

IN+3rd vowel +1st vowel

3:54 pm

Haz1558

There should be room made in gymnastics for the inspring and outspring discipline, I think you're right, Jacula.

3:55 pm

Jacula

Ah! So jwr is NOT English but an Anglophile. Bet you read Enid Blyton?

3:55 pm

Tinascratch2

I still have in7,32 - clue available for the second one of those (I could swear I asked about this one hours ago)

3:56 pm

Jacula

Now diving into grid to seek last 56 words. S-P-L-A-S-H-!

3:56 pm

Haz1558

But if you read Enid Blyton, where are all your exclamation marks? She loved them!

3:56 pm

72 Temple Owl

that which cannot be redacted, in latin?

3:56 pm

hurshy

pi7 please?

3:56 pm

ypsigirl

Finally got past the half way point........186 words down, 182 left... quite a long one today....

3:56 pm

Tinascratch2

that is, Is there a clue available for in7,32 #2?

3:56 pm

Jacula

Oh!! She did, Haz!!! Spiffing!!!!

3:56 pm

Haz1558

in7/32 - the second one is - in, four letters for what a man does to make a newspaper fit for reading, wrap it up with a vowel.

3:57 pm

Haz1558

pi7 - a compound word, so small that some people try to make things to put on top.

3:57 pm

Jacula

pi7 - top of a dressmaking tool.

3:57 pm

cybernan

pi 7: compound word: attach + above your neck

3:57 pm

hurshy

lol, now i feel like a pi7

3:57 pm

Haz1558

I knew I was leaving childhood behind when I started to be critical of Enid's exclamations.

3:58 pm

72 Temple Owl

ok i am fading later all

3:58 pm

Haz1558

3:58 pm

EspritdJean

person who is not very bright is a pillock

4:00 pm

grant

Clue for the first ca7/36, anyone?

4:00 pm

Haz1558

re5/14 - sounding like precipitation, describes a monarch's function.

4:00 pm

hurshy

well then that's just the same as the pi7 that IS in the grid. i can be either.

4:00 pm

EspritdJean

ca7/36 something kitty plays with

4:00 pm

EspritdJean

4:02 pm

Jacula

(That was re the pillock answer, btw, Jean.)

4:02 pm

jwr

No torture would make me confess to Blyton, tho a handful of grid clues perhaps... What I will admit to is -- way way back -- three years working in interior villages of what was then called Mysore; only other English speakers were ozzie missionaries who had been isolated there 4 3 generations & spoke only strine-biblical. Bye, luvs. Back in a couple of hours. Gotta go plant a window box.

4:02 pm

72 Temple Owl

4:05 pm

hurshy

4:05 pm

meliae

thank you Grant

4:05 pm

72 Temple Owl

4:05 pm

hurshy

4:05 pm

Guessed dunny -- the Aussies (is that more acceptable than Ozzies?) were, unhistorically speaking, highly puritanical, sci fi-ishly world-forgeting by the world forgot; wouldn't have used ANY euphemism for bodily functions. I'm so gone. Right NOW !!!!! (soBlightonly there!)

Jacula

Apparently, she (principal) sends people out to check for unauthorised vehicles and then disciplines students who transgress.

4:51 pm

Haz1558

That's good - first year can be a bit of a learning curve..... I'm surprised the principal can have so much personal authority. They wouldn't have stood for it in the 60's.

4:52 pm

Jacula

Haz - she's in a student flat with 4 others... 3 girls and one poor, unfortunate lad. (Well, he will be when all the girls synchronise their monthlies and are PMTish all at once).

Me - Well, I admit I wept buckets in an empty house after my son and ex-bro-in-law and her b'f drove her off lastSunday. A van for son and ex-bro and her and b'f in the mini (ppacked to the gills). So far though, she's kept in touch and been home often (it's only a 35-40 min drive). I realise, however, that's it's probably the b'f (who's at Uni in Birmingham) who's keeping her coming home.

Jacula

Back now, just been priming stepdaughte to listen for garden noises in night, since she, like my son sleeps at back of the house. Why? Someone or something, and we don't think our surviving delinquent cat could have achieved the feat, managed to uproot water hoses and most of the parts of our waterfall in the garden last night.

5:51 pm

Mom

oh Jacula, that is terrible

5:51 pm

Jacula

I'd query that remark, jess, re squirrels an raccoons.

5:57 pm

Jacula

A red squirrel, which, sadly, we no longer see he4 (only up in Scotland and a few other places) is a handsome fella. The grey is just a thug.

5:57 pm

Jellen

Ruru, someone prepares a magazine is an ****or

5:57 pm

Atalante

red squirrels are lovely

5:58 pm

periwinkle

Chippmunks stink when kept in capitivity.

5:59 pm

periwinkle

5:59 pm

doxy1lover

5:59 pm

Jacula

Not as much as ferrets stink, but they do stink.

5:59 pm

jesdraggon

and squirrels bite like crazy. but i don't keep either as pets, i just watch them outside.

6:00 pm

Jacula

Ata - Yes, I know. That's why some of the greys are ginger.

6:01 pm

Atalante

saw one the other day - perfect grey, but with a white underneath. think that must have been a hybrid

6:02 pm

flosey

25 to go, taking another break

6:02 pm

Jacula

Ata - yes... I meant. Occasionally (Barry White music he4) a man squirrel meets up with a lady squirrel... one is grey. One is red. But that doesn't matter. Love is all around! They get lost in love... LOL And then the ginger thugs emerge.

6:03 pm

Mom

hurry back Flosey

6:03 pm

Nef

this grid is wearing on me. I just got back from caring for my neighbors 5 month old baby

6:03 pm

Atalante

Jacula

Yes, lol, Ata. Glad you got it.

6:04 pm

Atalante

this hybrid one was v strange though. not ginger at all. just grey, but with white underneath parts

6:05 pm

Jacula

That's what family therapy was designed for, Ata. The unfortunate consequences of the meetings of the greys and the reds. LOL

6:05 pm

Nef

re: squirrles; we have some black squirrels here and a couple of albinos. I've never seen black squirres before; has anyone else?

6:05 pm

Jacula

Ata - could wel be an interbreeding.

6:05 pm

Atalante

france has dark brown ones

6:05 pm

jesdraggon

yes, the farther north you go, the more common they get, nef. quite a few in canada

6:09 pm

Jacula

Nef - I think it's the result of black, domestic rabbits being released and raped in the wild. I say that because domestic rabbits, generallly do not survive when released into the wild by fed-up but not very rabbit savvy owners.

6:09 pm

periwinkle

that would be it Nef

Nan - No. As I said, she visits about every other weekend. But, as I warned her Dad would happen, she's not that frquent now... places to go , people to see. I did warn him what having a teenaged daughter would entail.

6:22 pm

You open the wrappers (carefully, so as to conserve the paper for future use) and then you find the presents... ''under-eye cream to prevent age-related bagging', 'Welcome to the knickers that support your sagging baby belly. Your 20-year maternity leave is over. Time to shape up, you fat cow!'

6:57 pm

Jellen

Bye, Mom

6:57 pm

Mom

bye bye Jellen

6:57 pm

Jacula

No HRT for me, black ko can cause liver damage, not tried red clover yet, soya isoflavines do cr*p all, and sage oil, so my Mum , who is in her 70s and still having hot flushes and night sweats, tells me 'repeats on you'.

6:58 pm

Jacula

Her friend, who is in her 80s, says same.

7:00 pm

Jacula

However, P's Mum opted for HRT and was symptom-free for the 12 years she took it.Then new, young doctor breezed in, said, 'Youv'e been on that for far too long. No more for you!' And then the same symptoms blazed in. Better to brazen it out and get rid, I think, in the early years.

7:00 pm

timhorton

guess we just live with it

7:02 pm

Jacula

Tim - a flannel rinsed and wr5/22ed out inn cold water and folded to fit your brow is the mst effective thing for night sweats. Combine that with throwing the covers off, lying on your back etc.

7:03 pm

Jacula

If there is a hopeful or predatory male around when yu are in that position... well, say whatever... it'll be an hour till your next hot flush.

7:04 pm

timhorton

lol

7:04 pm

Jellen

ca 7/40, either?

7:04 pm

Jacula

There you go the, tim. Back to my 'h' words...

7:04 pm

timhorton

i found one thing that helps a bit

7:05 pm

timhorton

i shower before bed and wear baby powder

7:06 pm

Jacula

Baby powder doesn't smel sexy though, Tim. But, yes, you're right.

7:07 pm

Jacula

I'll stick with my cold flannel and smelling of woman (like Hilda said to Stan in Coronation Street).

7:07 pm

7:30 pm

DR1965

7:30 pm

jesdraggon

then again, he's a nutjob, and she's very bold.

7:32 pm

Kitties have star signs, just like homo sapiens does, jess.

7:32 pm

jesdraggon

i find more corelation between color/breed and personality in cats than i do with birth date, i think.

7:33 pm

Some are fiery, some are more cautious and some, if they are Libra, can't make their blinking minds up!

This is a work thing for me: never give a Libra a choice of drinks as you do the round for the vending machine. Every one else will have chosen coffe with or without, tea - same, hot chocolate, bovril, whatever....

7:37 pm

7:38 pm

Um ta i think i know what i mean but i have trouble with words and thinking today

8:52 pm

featherbee

his latest thing is making sure nick is covered properly with a blanket. earlier today (it was warm here) i didn't have one on him. Daniel felt he needed one, so he put his (Daniel's) lovey on nick's legs. the lovey is a little blanket that daniel sleeps with. think a small version of linus' blanket.

8:53 pm

HOBART'S biggest department store became a raging inferno yesterday afternoon when a fire broke out in Myer in the CBD.

The historic building was gutted by the blaze as thousands of onlookers crowded the cordoned-off streets to watch.

The building is one of Tasmania's most historic, dating back to 1836.
