The ENABLE (Enhanced North American Benchmark LExicon) At present, it is the most thoroughly researched and accurate reference list for club and tournament play, and it has become the unofficial de facto standard.

FMitch

'Fraid so red

4:15 am

sprite

4:15 am

Andree

But Why? she stutters, I spend so much time in there, why?

4:15 am

rolin

Haz1558

Just as long as George and I stay together.....

4:16 am

Haz1558

That Scrabbler is still making noises about him.

4:16 am

sprite

Haz1558

You've been saved from yourself, sprite.

4:17 am

kje

choose one I don't have sprite

4:17 am

JFB

Hi everyone. The problem I find is that it is American and lots o words used this side of the pond aren't allowed. Dosh is an example today

4:17 am

sprite

*crosses arms very childlike and refuses to tell the word*

4:17 am

rolin

Haz1558

Andree, thanks, you've given me a flying, leaping clue for two of the j words.

4:18 am

sprite

rolin: no, not really, in dutch terms. I am near Amsterdam.

4:19 am

Haz1558

Thanks, FMitch, good to know.

4:19 am

4:19 am

rolin

haz...what about peter...?..have you dumped him?

4:19 am

redturtlehead

My Phantom for today is castenet.

4:19 am

sprite

like George would ever be stupid enough to let go of his Haz. Tsk.

4:19 am

rolin

ok sprite..i was just wondering...cos we are looking at the north sea jazz festival

4:19 am

Haz1558

Peter - I wrote him a Dear John letter. Poor thing couldn't read.

4:20 am

o-o

phantom: discombobulate

4:20 am

redturtlehead

LOL

4:20 am

rolin

4:20 am

rolin

4:21 am

JFB

How many points for that babrab?

4:21 am

sprite

Haz, he was just being very civilized and modest, for sure. He saw Dear John and stopped reading, certain the letter wasn't meant for him...

4:21 am

Haz1558

Sprite, modest and Peter Stringfellow don't belong together in the same sentence.

4:21 am

sprite

well rolin, in the netherlands it is quite hard to have to drive more than 4 hours to someone... it is a very small country :)

4:22 am

Haz1558

And civilised? The man wears leopardskin thongs.

4:22 am

sprite

*giggles*
Ok Haz... of course, compared to George, he stood no chance anyway.

4:22 am

rolin

yeah... i know...and i have to admit..i am losing my aussie travelling brain the longer i live here]

4:22 am

lynxxx

lol..I thought you were meaning peter Andree and that Haz has lowered her standards!

4:23 am

FMitch

Oh I say, I had forgotten it was the Oxford/Cambridge boat race today

4:23 am

sprite

but if you feel like driving over, you are more than welcome!

4:23 am

redturtlehead

4:23 am

rolin

yes mitch...and with the wind..will they be in danger of sinking again?

4:23 am

rolin

4:23 am

FMitch

I was just thinking the very same thing rolin

4:23 am

sprite

my phantom today is cacti

4:24 am

o-o

that thong must go with the hair shirt

4:24 am

lynxxx

4:24 am

Haz1558

Red, nobody should have to wear those thongs. He's an 80 year old man, for goodness sake.

4:24 am

FMitch

4:24 am

sprite

4:24 am

sprite

4:25 am

Haz1558

He didn't sing, did he, FMitch?

4:25 am

redturtlehead

4:26 am

rolin

4:27 am

lynxxx

My son was great though. He was hugging and cuddling with me on the couch for goodbye and my mother scolded him: "You think you need to take handkerchiefs for tonight, when you are homesick?"
And my son just laughed and said: "I need them now already."

4:58 am

sprite

lady, it is an exciting time. Glad you are enjoying getting stuff for the house :D

4:59 am

herinfernallady

Sprite im glad your son can be that sweet. Makes me go awwww

4:59 am

sprite

so are we, lady. He is almost 12 now, very adolescent in build and behaviour, but still wants to hug and cuddle.

5:00 am

herinfernallady

AWWWW

5:00 am

herinfernallady

We even have a piano in the spare room so i can relearn it

5:01 am

Frances

Would love to be able to play the piano and the violin and the cello and and and and......

5:01 am

sprite

oh that is great. I played the piano too, but have been without the instrument for over 10 years now... would have to start anew, I think.

5:02 am

sprite

hehehe Frances, so many dreams, so little time, huh ;)

5:02 am

herinfernallady

Frances go right ahead and do it. Im sure my neighbours will love me

sprite

5:04 am

herinfernallady

I am giong to bribe them with Muffins

5:04 am

Frances

Neighbours aren't a problem infernal - I don't have any. Time is my enemy and how can you sit with a cello between your legs and play babble. The mind boggles!

5:04 am

sprite

smart and unbeatable move, lady. That will work :)

5:05 am

sprite

Frances, start with considering time as your friend... it will help.

5:05 am

sprite

a friend of mine used to say: we all have 24 hours a day. Time can never be the problem.

5:05 am

Frances

Sprite, that was said with tongue planted very firmly in cheek.

5:06 am

herinfernallady

Lol Frances

5:06 am

herinfernallady

Its a duplex solid brick

5:06 am

Frances, I know, just pulling your leg. And fireworks. The 10 was my last word. One before last was as4. I will never learn.

5:07 am

herinfernallady

Yah Dprite

5:07 am

Frances

Well done sprite. Hate to bragg but the 10 was my first - it just sort of jumped out at me.

5:08 am

sprite

that's not bragging, that is justifiable pride. *hug*

5:09 am

sprite

*justified

5:09 am

herinfernallady

8:02 am

movieman

ty again monte

8:03 am

Patxxx

TY Montreal13, I was getting annoyed at my ignorance

8:03 am

montreal13

yes scrabs - when the sabres got that penalty with less than 3 minutes left, i said the habs need to score to make it an interesting finish... and they did !!

8:03 am

montreal13

yw pat

8:04 am

Scrabbler

It hurt, Luc. Right in the heart.

8:04 am

montreal13

more than silly - doesn't make much sense at all...

8:04 am

montreal13

are the Sabres mathematically out of the series now scrabs ?

8:05 am

Scrabbler

I think we have 4 games left and are 6 points behind. It is unlikely that we will make it.

8:06 am

LadyNatts

same here, scrabbs... 3 or 4 points back of the last playoff spot

8:06 am

montreal13

the sabres play a similar game than the habs and i wouln't want to face them in the series...

8:09 am

Jandy

8:40 am

Scrabbler

Inge--that is a rather X-rated suggestion...the licking part.

8:40 am

hurshy

8:40 am

evanonut

kudos scrabs, was thinking that, but wasn't going to say it

AnnieOakley

8:49 am

Jindigo

8:49 am

Scrabbler

Some people have skunks for pets.

8:49 am

Scrabbler

Hurshy was dreaming about skunks last night.

8:50 am

evanonut

i had a close encounter with a skunk, and it didn't get me. if a skunk gets you, are you skanked?

8:50 am

Jindigo

i have always thought was a strange pet to have - just like monkeys

8:50 am

Jandy

And Vicuna, thanks too for the clue... chat going so fast I didn't see it... but it was the right one!

8:50 am

hurshy

i dreamed that this sort of know-it-all teacher where i used to work was saying he knew just what to do about the skunk problem, and then he got sprayed in the face

8:50 am

Scrabbler

Or skanky?

8:50 am

Jandy

Hi Jindigo!

8:52 am

Vicuna

"To see a skunk in your dream, suggests that you may be driving people away or turning people off. Alternatively, it indicates that all is calm." So take your pick.

8:52 am

Jandy

OKAY!!! Down to 17 without the list... phew... going to be asking for clues if I'm going to make it all the way.

8:52 am

Scrabbler

Fascinating, Vicuna.

pabtrek

Scrabbler

Of course you can do it, Jandy.

8:56 am

o-o

Freud was big on dreams

8:56 am

Scrabbler

Sarah, the most th6

8:56 am

Vicuna

Jandy, just because it's baloney doesn't mean there aren't a million silly people eager to be taken advantage of if that's what you're looking for in a career!

8:57 am

Scrabbler

Freud was a cocaine addict too.

8:57 am

phaeton

Morning

8:57 am

8:57 am

Scrabbler

Hi phaeton

Jandy

I'm not a cocaine addict, Scrabbler... honest... I just drink!

8:57 am

pabtrek

Jandy

Hey Phaeton

8:58 am

Scrabbler

As PT Barnum said, "There is a sucker born every minute."

8:58 am

Vicuna

What did Freud say came between fear and sex? (joke)

8:58 am

phaeton

NM, found it

8:58 am

hurshy

i think they didn't used to know quite how bad cocaine was... in fact i think it was first touted as a non-addictive medicine...

8:58 am

Scrabbler

Jandy, maybe you would do better at dream interpretation IF you were a cocaine addict.

8:58 am

Aloyisius

it used to be in coca cola

8:59 am

o-o

coca cola and aspirin

8:59 am

EspritdJean

8:59 am

AnnieOakley

I used to have repetitive dreams when i was a chld that I was trapped by a fire on my left, a high wall on my right and behind, and didn't know what was ahead...it was very scary. Meaning Jandy??!!

8:59 am

hurshy

and sinatra sang, "some they may go for cocaine... i'm sure that if i took even one sniff it would bore me terrifff-ically too... but i get a kick out of you..."

8:59 am

9:01 am

Jandy

Okay Annie... I would say that at the time you were living through uncertainty and complexity; changes were happening around you that made you unsettled and unsure of the future. The fact that the dream stopped meant that you were feeling more secure or perhaps felt you had more control over your own situation and safety...

9:01 am

I have a da4/6 and pl.

I'm a little afraid to ask if there was any truth at all in it, Annie!

congrats, littlebit... i'm signing off too. Happy babbling, all.. see you next grid.. who, first a clue

9:11 am

Jandy

Well, lil, I think it might mean (given that I believe from you that you have a nice new bloke) that you are saying your goodbyes to the ex, and doing a little bit of mourning for what's gone, but showing that you're ready to let go and move ahead. I don't think it means you're still attached to that person or wish to go back, which might be the obvious. There you go!

good night, Jandy

9:29 am

Put an A in front of your et5

9:30 am

hurshy

people like david koresh are handy. whenever you feel like you're crazy, you can think to yourself, "well, at least i don't think i'm the messiah!"

9:30 am

rolin

aah...ty gramma

9:30 am

gramma

Babble, branch davidian? Where did you come up with that one? The mind is a funny thing

9:31 am

hurshy

oops, i shouldn't have filled that in... sorry

9:31 am

gramma

rolin,yw

9:31 am

rolin

are there only 2 x so?

9:31 am

o-o

9:32 am

Atalante

I imagine it must be quite enlightening thinking one is the Messiah

9:32 am

rolin

ok...ty..so thats the s im missing then

9:32 am

gramma

so- grasses, misspell apologize, and sauce for Chinese food

9:32 am

rolin

no its not...move on..*sigh*

9:33 am

hurshy

enlightening implies learning of truth, doesn't it? so if you are NOT the messiah, then, i don't see how thinking you are is going to make you more likely to know true things

9:33 am

lil*monkey

good clue and LOL, hurshy!

9:34 am

Atalante

but presumably ppl who think they are the messiah truly do think they are, and therefore are also believing that they are party to enlightment

9:35 am

gramma

Some people think they're God because they hear voices and they're not crazy? so they must be hearing the voice of God

9:35 am

hurshy

yes but it doesn't matter how much they believe it, it's all an imaginary world. i wouldn't think you would be such a relativist as to think that it's better to be happy in false beliefs...

9:36 am

rolin

nah...what about that guy who took his believers into the desert..built a community...'was told by god' to sleep with various women including a 16yo and his son's wife...told everyone a date for the end of the world..and when that didnt happen he told his believers it ws the end of HIS world becsause he had been reborn... gimme a break...hes a con man

9:36 am

Atalante

but if you know nothing else and truly believe you are the messiah, the enlightenment - for them - is real

9:36 am

gramma

Off to the shower! Good luck w/the grid and have fun

9:36 am

kje

wow, this is a deep conversation for a saturday morning - GM all

9:36 am

10:05 am

hurshy

10:05 am

kje

hurshy - did you see the article in The Onion about the cats calling truce over the paper bag war?

10:05 am

hurshy

lol, no :)

10:05 am

Dorens

my two really don't get along. It''s been 5 years, and I wish I could do something about it, but I havepretty much given up

10:05 am

kje

it was hilarious

10:05 am

kje

I'll go get the link for you

10:06 am

hurshy

well mine are 8, and they have gotten better within the last year, i think, so, i guess you never know!

10:06 am

rolin

10:07 am

hurshy

it's a word that appears in agatha christie a lot... to do with wills..

10:07 am

Dorens

well, glad there's hope. Lucy was 6 when I got the baby, and she still hasn't totally forgiven me for bringing him into the house

10:07 am

hurshy

there is also a related te7 (that was my last 7)

10:07 am

kje

here it is... http://www.theonion.com/content/news/k
itchen_floor_conflict_intensifies

10:07 am

rolin

i have the 7 of that hursh..cant seem to extend it

10:08 am

hurshy

yes, that was the same with mine dorens, mitten was an only cat for a few months, and was mad when i brought in cinder. (person who, rolin)

10:08 am

kje

and here is another onion story called "war on string may be unwinnable" - also very funny cat story... http://www.theonion.com/content/node/3
7503

10:08 am

hurshy

but then after a little while mitten got over it and wanted to be friends, but then cinder had classed her as a big meanie and wouldn't.

10:08 am

Atalante

poor mitten!

10:09 am

hurshy

marty came just two weeks after cinder so mitten was feeling receptive by then.

10:09 am

rolin

got them..ty

10:09 am

Dorens

well, baby likes to jump on Lucy when she comes in (she is indoor/outdoor), but then again she has always growled and hissed at him for absolutely no reason -- and so it goes

10:09 am

hurshy

thanks kje :)

10:12 am

hurshy

i dunno why mine seem better now, unless it's because they are alone when i'm at work in a small apartment. maybe they had some knock-down drag-out fights to settle things a bit.

10:12 am

cool girl

hi everyone im so happy i got the 10 letter all on my own

10:12 am

hurshy

i'm not at work in a small apartment - i should have reversed those prepositional phrases...

AnnieOakley

hi again...back from eating

10:17 am

Atalante

I could, but I choose to be monty pythonesque

10:17 am

Dorens

but then we might think it had trouble being on time

10:17 am

hurshy

i want to be chancellor of the ex-chicken

10:17 am

Atalante

do chickens ever have to be on time?

10:18 am

Dorens

10:18 am

hurshy

10:20 am

Actually, I was reading much of europe will suffer, but GB wll not do too badly...we'll see. No sunbathing at all last yr...miserable...i hope it's hot this yr

10:32 am

hurshy

i heard that the trend in the future (for the whole world) will be that we will have fewer storms but when we do have them they will be worse

10:32 am

bluemonkey

10:35 am

Raithby

sorry

10:35 am

AnnieOakley

got that 1!! LOL

10:35 am

hurshy

i also saw a dude on CSPAN give a talk about how if you go back billions of years and look at the warming and cooling patterns, you'd find that we have been in a warming trend for a long time, and that human activity will push the peak of the trend a little bit higher (of course a little bit in his terms may still be very deadly for humans), but that he expects that after that it will turn down and we'll have another ice age.

10:36 am

bluemonkey

how does the number s for help work?, i have 6 of 7 j's and need another one

10:36 am

Atalante

lol not quite billions :P but basically we are in an interglacial period right now, and so yes, the trend is generally down towards another ice age

10:36 am

AnnieOakley

10:41 am

Lizsark

10:41 am

Lizsark

no sorry Annie - its just stuff local to my area (geographically speaking)

10:41 am

redturtlehead

Hi everyone!!! My landord has decided she just couldnt stay away, so 4 days from my moving out she is here doing stuff outside the house, I feel trapped.

10:42 am

katrynwise

Hi Haz... Liz you really confused my son, he thought you were "hazing" someone...... ha ha

10:42 am

Lizsark

Ah! Haz I had the most amazing time :)

10:42 am

redturtlehead

She has been here since 0830...I am wondering how long she can manage to stay and trao me.

10:42 am

Lizsark

lol Katryn

10:42 am

AnnieOakley

how brilliant for you. Hi RED!!!

10:42 am

Haz1558

It seems to have been a marvellous experience. Toyah didn't show up to greet your return?

10:43 am

redturtlehead

Hi Annie.!!

10:43 am

Atalante

liz, if you ever get any books on Lihou Island (Guernsey), would you let me know???

10:43 am

Lizsark

Sadly, no, she pulled out at the last minute again LOL

10:43 am

Haz1558

She's such a fader, that woman.

10:43 am

Lizsark

hmmm I did have one on Lihou but I think I sold it - would have to have a look

10:44 am

Lizsark

LOL Haz she's such a lightweight

10:44 am

Haz1558

She probably had to get another facelift done or something. No sense of priority.

10:44 am

Lizsark

is this grid hard today or is it just me???

10:44 am

AnnieOakley

Aren't the Brits doing ell in world indoor cycling?

10:45 am

AnnieOakley

*well

10:45 am

Haz1558

That's an understatement, Annie. WORLD CHAMPIONS.

10:45 am

Lizsark

its been great hasn't it Annie

10:45 am

AnnieOakley

so right...i'm so enjoying it...

10:45 am

redturtlehead

Liz, this grid is so much nicer than yesterdays, for some reason.

10:45 am

Atalante

*dithers*

10:46 am

Lizsark

I'm struggling with it today Red. Yesterday I was ok although I didnt finish

10:46 am

Haz1558

If you were Scots, Atalante, you'd be havering.

10:46 am

redturtlehead

I didnt finish yesterday, I got very annoyed with it.

10:46 am

Lizsark

Why are you dithering then Ata?

10:46 am

Atalante

but I'm not :D purely English

10:47 am

redturtlehead

but now I am trapped until this landady eaves because I hate her, and I am unable to say anything nice to her. so I must stay indoors and babbe.

10:47 am

redturtlehead

rather than pack up the car.

10:47 am

Atalante

cos I don't know whether to go shopping or not. I want to, but not sure I can be bothered to move

10:47 am

Haz1558

That's a new excuse for babbling.

10:47 am

Lizsark

no stay here Ata

10:48 am

AnnieOakley

keep babbling red...think of us instead of nasty landlady!

10:48 am

harpjane

hello

10:48 am

AnnieOakley

Hello jane

10:48 am

Atalante

but I need new sh*** for doggy walking! Mine have more holes than material

10:48 am

redturtlehead

Yes, it is a new one for me too! My company made a deal with her to get her to stay away for the remainder of my leace but I see she couldnt wait 5 days.

10:49 am

redturtlehead

I just wish she would announce loudly when she leaves.

10:49 am

Haz1558

Then you have to shop, Atalante. It's for Hobbit.

10:49 am

AnnieOakley

how awful...she must be bad...a stalker landlady!

10:49 am

redturtlehead

Ata, shop for sh*** online.

10:49 am

Atalante

we wouldn't want Hobbit deprived

10:49 am

Haz1558

True.

10:50 am

AnnieOakley

Ata...go tomorrow...it'll be quieter then...and we can have u longer

10:50 am

Haz1558

Back shortly...

10:50 am

Atalante

I usually do, red, but there's a discount shop nearby that sells *cheap* doggy walking sh***

10:50 am

redturtlehead

She is just fine, I have the house all a mess though and am mopping for my departure so I dont want her to see it unti it is mopped.

10:50 am

redturtlehead

Ok I see your point ata...

10:50 am

Atalante

but husband isn't here today to whine at me going shopping LOL

10:50 am

redturtlehead

How is the Mouse?

10:51 am

AnnieOakley

then SHOP TIL U DROP!!! ha ha! LOL!!!

10:51 am

Atalante

the mouse seems to have gone quiet recently. or, more like, the husband seems to have gone quiet about themouse!

10:52 am

redturtlehead

Smart Husband....Now you have done some magic flea getting rid of and mouse getting rid of. Dont tel l hubby, I found a tick on me yesterday!

10:53 am

Atalante

ick! ticks are ick

10:53 am

Lizsark

emergency

10:53 am

redturtlehead

It was ick. but, it is part of letting dog on the bed...I suppose.

10:53 am

Uneaixoise

what?

10:53 am

redturtlehead

Liz, i hope you are alright?

10:54 am

Lizsark

hang on

10:54 am

Scrabbler

Hi kids---I am in between chores (housecleaning). How is everybody?

10:54 am

AnnieOakley

oh dear...what's wrong with Liz

10:54 am

Atalante

I'm so glad we don't really have ticks here

10:54 am

redturtlehead

hi scrabbs...

10:54 am

Uneaixoise

hey, scrabs!

10:54 am

Kazozz

hi scrabbler!

10:55 am

redturtlehead

I was surprised to see them in NM, its so dry and such, but I suppose they are here.

10:55 am

redturtlehead

Hi Kazz.

10:55 am

Atalante

ok. I will go shopping. But only when Liz is back adn safe. and if I have Â£1 somewhere for car parking

10:55 am

AnnieOakley

Mind you, with global warming, maybe we'll get them?!

10:55 am

redturtlehead

Whats new Scrabbs?

10:55 am

Lizsark

ok nightmare! Its one for you this Ata. Simon just rang me from home....

10:55 am

Kazozz

hows it going red?

10:55 am

Atalante

there are a few sorts here, but not in vast quantities

10:55 am

Lizsark

Oscar broke into the pantry and has eaten seven large easter eggs and all the bars that go with them

10:56 am

Uneaixoise

worst is tick dropping from tree

10:56 am

Atalante

OSCAR!

10:56 am

redturtlehead

good Kazzoz, except for Landlord lady who has showed up unexpectedly...but I think she is done.

10:56 am

Atalante

vet

10:56 am

Scrabbler

Haha for Oscar!

10:56 am

Uneaixoise

onto head or shoulder . . . ICK!

10:56 am

Lizsark

Chocolate is soooo poisonous to dogs though Scrabb

10:56 am

Scrabbler

I have a migraine and am waiting for the naproxen to work.

10:56 am

Atalante

I'd hoick him off to the vet for *that* much chocolate

10:56 am

Uneaixoise

Oscar must be soooo happy!!

10:56 am

Lizsark

Ata our vet is in Guernsey, next boat is on Monday

10:56 am

redturtlehead

Is Oscar a dog? are the bars chocolate? Use Hydrogen peroxide to get oscar to vomit.

10:56 am

Atalante

or at least phone them and ask what you can do

10:56 am

redturtlehead

Sorry Scrabbs, I have a spring cold, which stinks.

10:57 am

Lizsark

Oscar is a very bad labrador :)

10:57 am

Lizsark

I will Ata, right now

10:57 am

Scrabbler

Oh, I didn't know that chocolate was involved. So now you have to calculate the amount of ingested chocolate for his weight, to see if he ate a toxic amount.

10:57 am

redturtlehead

Hydrogen peroxide will make Oscar Vomit.

10:57 am

Atalante

he is. but he needs to puke that chocolate up

10:57 am

Jacula

Hi folks. Back from wet and windy shopping. Liz - Osccar needs an emetic before that chocolate poisons him.

10:57 am

redturtlehead

Thats a ton of chocolate.

10:57 am

Uneaixoise

FYI years ago my cocker ate a whole bag of chocolate kisses and was fine . . .

10:58 am

redturtlehead

Hydrogen Peroxide works well as a doggie emetic.

10:58 am

redturtlehead

I swear it.

10:58 am

redturtlehead

I swear it.

10:58 am

Atalante

I think generally dogs are ok, I've seen a staffie eat 4lb of chocolate before and be perfectly well. but its not worth the risk

10:58 am

Uneaixoise

the good thing is that Oscar's a big dog . . . also, was it DARK choc? that's supposed to be what makes them sick . . .

10:58 am

nbjasmine

good morning everyone. ae7 help plz/

10:58 am

redturtlehead

oops didnt mean to swear it twice.

10:58 am

Uneaixoise

antique spelling of et6

10:58 am

Atalante

not many ppl have handy supplies of hydrogen peroxide here though, red

10:58 am

Uneaixoise

*et5

10:58 am

Scrabbler

And AE word--what a concept. I must check that one out.

10:58 am

redturtlehead

Really?

10:59 am

Lizsark

He is big Une - he's 40kgs of solid muscle (and chocolate). Ata, Scully once ate a whole box of Quality Street chocs and was fine

10:59 am

redturtlehead

Ok, so I see its not a common thing to have in the house...

10:59 am

Scrabbler

**looking for et5**

10:59 am

redturtlehead

well, he will be quite the energetic labt hen.

10:59 am

Atalante

lol yeah .... littel brats. I'm sure he'd be fine, but its not worth risking it if you can get him to throw it back up

10:59 am

Uneaixoise

my cocker even ate all the silver paper on the kisses . . . and was still fine . . . she was my goat dog! LOL

10:59 am

redturtlehead

Scrabber think of putting peope out.

10:59 am

Uneaixoise

et5 is old-timey anesthesia

11:00 am

Atalante

I have some, red, but I think I'm the only person I know here that does!

11:00 am

Uneaixoise

(I have some too)

11:00 am

Scrabbler

Oh, that kind of "out". I was thinking "evict".

11:00 am

Lizsark

Not as clever as Scully my old cocker then Une - she left the wrappers! I never worked out how she unwrapped them!!! My son will be devastated this time though. All his easter eggs :(

11:00 am

redturtlehead

I probably dont have any myself, but its dreadfully good for cleaning up blood.

11:00 am

nbjasmine

thanks all

11:00 am

Uneaixoise

Hydrogen peroxide, that is--not et5!! LOL

11:00 am

Jacula

Salty water will probably do the trick, Liz, to make him sick.

11:00 am

maddline1

et5 used by docs on patients to keep them still

11:01 am

Atalante

yes, very salty water, if you can get it down him

11:01 am

Uneaixoise

too funny, liz!

11:01 am

redturtlehead

Thats a Grat IDea Jac! everyone has some salt.

11:01 am

Uneaixoise

speaking of pups--gotta take mine out--later!

11:01 am

redturtlehead

Going to peek outside to see if landllady is GONE.

11:01 am

Lizsark

Thats a good idea.

11:01 am

Lizsark

I have the sea lol Red

11:02 am

Lizsark

good luck Red

11:02 am

Scrabbler

It is sunny and bright here, and the snow is held up in the tree branches, so it is beautiful. I need to walk to the mail center later.

11:02 am

Jacula

Salty water in a large syringe or squeezy bottle should do it.

11:02 am

AnnieOakley

Hope Oscar's ok Liz

11:02 am

Atalante

what did the vet say??

11:02 am

Lizsark

me too annie. I'm going home to find out....bye all

11:02 am

Scrabbler

No pup to take me for a walk though. I could stuff Sebastian into my shirt, but he would be so scared.

11:02 am

Lizsark

I'm on hold at the mo Ata

11:03 am

AnnieOakley

Bye Liz...hoe all goes ok

11:03 am

Atalante

Welcome, bubbles. Read the Help section and scroll below to Lickety's Babble Clues

3:46 pm

Ping

hi lin and haz

3:47 pm

Lindrickway

hi ping

3:47 pm

Atalante

bloody dogs!

3:48 pm

Haz1558

Yes, indeed. It probably wasn't too big a problem - and yes, soda crystals or Ariel tablets on the tongue would have done the trick.

3:48 pm

Lindrickway

i just had to bath mine atalante, he turned from white to mud coloured!!

3:48 pm

Atalante

7 easter eggs! silly dog!

3:48 pm

Lindrickway

wow now that is greedy!!!

3:49 pm

Haz1558

People panic a bit about chocolate - it's only harmful if they eat huge quantities of a particular type of chocolate.

3:49 pm

Lindrickway

good job haz!!

3:49 pm

Atalante

I'm glad he's ok. I know dogs are generally fine with chocolate, but 7 eggs and the associated bars seemed a bit ...

3:49 pm

Haz1558

And by the sound of Oscar's history, he could eat a cement mixer with impunity.

3:50 pm

Atalante

how much choc would they have to eat to have a problem? I always feel guilty about letting HObbit lick a morsel of chocolate sauce from my hand, though I know I shouldnt

3:50 pm

Lindrickway

mmmm chocolate, that would be nice!! (;

3:50 pm

Atalante

3 cement mixers, with cement

3:50 pm

Lindrickway

LOL ata

3:51 pm

Lindrickway

you are making me hungry guys!!

3:51 pm

Haz1558

LOTS of chocolate, although it would have to be balanced with size of dog. Put it this way, husband has been in practice for 28 years and has never seen a case.

3:51 pm

Atalante

thats good. why do they bother making dog chocolate then?

3:51 pm

autumn moon

when my rotti was a baby, only about 50 pounds, she ate a whole pillowcase full of halloween candy. Had the poops for a week but that's it.

3:52 pm

Haz1558

Theobromine (thiobromine?) is the danger ingredient.

3:52 pm

Atalante

thiobromine / bromide

3:52 pm

Haz1558

I knew you'd know.

3:53 pm

Atalante

i think, anyway!

3:53 pm

Haz1558

It sounds like a Greek man, doesn't it?

3:53 pm

Lindrickway

hi autumn

3:53 pm

Atalante

lol yes

3:54 pm

Haz1558

Or would it be Theo Bromopoppadopulous?

3:54 pm

autumn moon

Hi Lind.

3:54 pm

Atalante

just thinking that

3:54 pm

Haz1558

Or Theo Bromopoopalotapus.

3:55 pm

Atalante

who's the theo guy on dragon's den?

3:55 pm

Haz1558

The man who never needs a laxative....

3:55 pm

Haz1558

He's Theo Kathetes or something.

3:56 pm

Atalante

not greek enough really

3:56 pm

Haz1558

Theo Paphitis

3:56 pm

Atalante

Theo Bromopoppadopulous would be better

3:58 pm

Haz1558

Let's hope he never turns to professional sports - they'd need two lines to get the name on the shirt.

3:58 pm

Atalante

lol yes

3:59 pm

Haz1558

You saw that FMitch has closed the PB for renovation?

3:59 pm

4:00 pm

Haz1558

4:01 pm

Haz1558

We should draw up a shortlist of candidates.

4:01 pm

autumn moon

Oh hello Vicuna!

4:03 pm

Vicuna

What are you plotting today, Haz?

4:03 pm

Lindrickway

oh in that case i will run all the way autumn!!

4:03 pm

Atalante

brb I need fooood

4:03 pm

Haz1558

We're wondering who is going to cut the ribbon on the new PB. Fmitch has closed it down for refurbishment.

4:04 pm

Lindrickway

JJ Burnell please haz

4:04 pm

Vicuna

What, weren't the ankle irons rusty enough?

4:04 pm

Haz1558

Who is JJ Burnell?

4:04 pm

Lindrickway

from the Stranglers haz!!

4:04 pm

Vicuna

And will the ribbon be pink in honor of the Cartland personas?

4:04 pm

Haz1558

I think she just felt the need for some changes.

4:05 pm

Haz1558

Excuse my ignorance, Lindrick....

4:06 pm

Vicuna

It's springtime, and a young woman's fancy turns to interior decorating...

4:06 pm

Lindrickway

only this once Haz (; LOL

4:06 pm

Haz1558

I don't know what colour the ribbon will be. Perhaps made up of flags of all the nations represented?

4:06 pm

evanonut

heh...i like this. how does barack get people to register to vote? register to vote and get a chance to play 3 on 3 b-ball with him.

4:06 pm

Haz1558

JJ Burnell sounds like a business man. You wouldn't associate him with The Stranglers.

4:07 pm

Lindrickway

LOL

4:07 pm

Lindrickway

Nuttyyyyyyyy

4:07 pm

Haz1558

That sounds okay to me, Dr Nut. Robert Mugabe is getting dead people to vote for him.

4:07 pm

evanonut

mugabe must be a republican then, i've heard they do that from time to time

4:08 pm

Atalante

and a lot of them at that

4:08 pm

Haz1558

Mugabe is in a league of his own.

4:08 pm

Vicuna

Well, you know Haz, most people just aren't that sensitive to the concerns of dead people.

4:08 pm

Haz1558

People who have been dead for 20 years are registered to vote. And they'll all vote the same way.

4:09 pm

evanonut

dead people have been voting for years and years, and they're bound to vote more and more as voting goes electronic

4:09 pm

Vicuna

You have to give him credit for reaching out to a constituency that is so often ignored by today's politicians.

4:09 pm

Atalante

a whole town of 11000 people are registered to vote. they are all dead

4:09 pm

Lindrickway

well i'm gonna go finish my book before I go out for dinner, so I'll catch you all tomorrow, Have Fun!!

4:09 pm

Haz1558

Yes, a few dead people here and there. We're talking about thousands upon thousands of people who wouldn't have voted for him in the first place.

4:10 pm

evanonut

yeah, next they'll go for the mentally handicapped, see if they can't steal their votes too

4:10 pm

Atalante

makes you wonder why he bothers, he's going to win dead voters or not

4:10 pm

evanonut

28 years now, why even put up the farce of a vote?

4:11 pm

Haz1558

Because he claims that he taught Britain everything there is to know about democracy. It would be funny if it weren't so tragic.

4:11 pm

MLFAN17

Hello

4:11 pm

Atalante

and the average life expectancy of a woman there is now 34 years

4:12 pm

evanonut

really, boy, means i only have less than 5 to go

4:12 pm

Atalante

scary, isn't it?

4:12 pm

Vicuna

Because as long as he pretends, the rest of the world doesn't bother him too much.

4:12 pm

Haz1558

Life expectancy goes down, inflation goes sky high. What a dreadful shame.

4:12 pm

Vicuna

In that case, evano, I'm dead already, and therefore presumably already cast my vote for Mugabe.

4:13 pm

Atalante

oooooo bad Vi!

4:13 pm

evanonut

4:14 pm

It is one of those frequent reminders that I'm darn lucky.

Hello, mlfan.

Can i get a clue for AE 6 please

4:15 pm

MLFAN17

Hello Vic how are you?

4:15 pm

Haz1558

A British woman has just had her first baby - she's 57. I felt faint at the thought. 70 when the child hits her teens.

4:15 pm

Vicuna

ae6 - alt spelling of anesthesia

4:16 pm

Vicuna

Yikes.

4:16 pm

sandr

she looks good for her age tho haz

4:17 pm

Haz1558

She'll look worse after a few sleepless nights.

4:17 pm

EspritdJean

that's insane

4:17 pm

Vicuna

I guess it worked for Sarah and all those women in the Bible. Of course they also lived to 300, or something, so 70 must not have seemed too bad.

4:17 pm

EspritdJean

"just becane we CAN doesn't mean we SHOULD"

4:17 pm

phandmd

tac e

4:17 pm

EspritdJean

but Sarah didn't have IVF and an egg donor

4:18 pm

Haz1558

The baby was the result of IVF treatment in Russia. I think British clinics have an age limit.

4:18 pm

Vicuna

Is the baby healthy?

4:20 pm

EspritdJean

the baby is from a younger egg, it will probably be fine

4:20 pm

Haz1558

Yes, I think so. She's quite tiny.

4:20 pm

Vicuna

Well, that's good then.

4:21 pm

sandr

it doesnt look good tho when the hospital at first thought she had a stomach cancer really

4:21 pm

Hello Judi.

4:31 pm

Vicuna

I see the appeal, but ultimately, what would be the point of playing the game if one doesn't intend to find the words oneself? Just come on in and chat.

4:32 pm

Haz1558

The points! You get points whether you find the word yourself or not.

4:32 pm

jillibus

I have to go and pick up Her Majesty the Cat from the vet's where she had a beauty treatment (de-matting fur) and manicure (nail-cutting)

4:32 pm

Hi Judi!

MLFAN17

jill poor kitty

4:32 pm

Perm? color?

Be sure to bow low, jillibus.

4:33 pm

Vic yeah probably polka dots lol

4:33 pm

Vicuna

Oh right, Haz. I forgot the satisfaction of amassing meaningless points without using my own brain! Silly me.

4:33 pm

Judi

Glad I have short-haired cats.

4:34 pm

MLFAN17

Haz are yo making fun of me?

4:34 pm

jillibus

They gave a light sedative. She will feel much better when those mats are gone -- they irritate the skin. She is so old she has stopped grooming her long hair.

4:34 pm

Judi

Vic - are you have a crisis of Babble faith er what?

4:34 pm

Haz1558

MLF I was responding to something that Vicuna said.

4:34 pm

any help with the de5/18 please.

4:35 pm

Oh dear, am I rocking the boat or something, Judi? Never mind my piffle.

4:35 pm

Vicuna

de5/18 - rot

4:35 pm

Haz1558

de5/18 - caries

4:36 pm

Judi

No boat rocking. I was just wondering how anyone could question the purpose/point/existence of Babble. Having said that, I'll now be looking over my shoulder for the Anti-Babble Cult de-programmers.

4:37 pm

Atalante

she's GORGEOUS, jill!

4:37 pm

Haz1558

Are the Anti-Babble people goodies or baddies?

4:38 pm

Vicuna

I never questioned the point of Babble! I only questioned the point of typing in lists of words not found by oneself. Sounds more like dictation than a game to me. But to each his (or in the case of Babble, mostly her) own.

4:38 pm

Vicuna

She does look regal, jilli!

4:38 pm

Judi

Anti-Babble baaaaad! Pro-Babble goooood.

4:38 pm

jillibus

Isn't she? I'm afraid she won't look so good after those mats have been cut out.

4:39 pm

MLFAN17

jill it depends on how bad they are

4:40 pm

Haz1558

Jillibus - you're doubting the artistic skill of the vet/nurse?

4:40 pm

pablo blanco

thanks for the de guys! I was going the wrong way again!

4:40 pm

MLFAN17

I have seen some really bad looking cats after those have been cut out but it happens

4:40 pm

jillibus

But I hope her fur will grow back and I'll be grooming her every day to prevent more of them

4:40 pm

Haz1558

Glad you found it, pablo.

jill wait and see lol

BRB

4:42 pm

jillibus

Haz -- the groomer warned me when I took her in. If they had given her a full anaesthetic they could work them out but I'm afraid of that in her delicate hyperthyroid condition, so they'll do what they can without upsetting her too much.

4:42 pm

Haz1558

Well, hopefully it won't have been too traumatic for her. They'll do what is safest.

4:43 pm

jillibus

Right, Haz :)

4:43 pm

Well, I'm off to wash my hair. Must groom for a Wine and Dine night in town tonight. Told hubby he can dine and I'll wine!

4:52 pm

Scrabbler

We got new snow a few nights ago--Thursday. We got 4-6 inches and it made things beautiful. The trees are still holding the snow.

4:52 pm

Haz1558

4:52 pm

JBV

thanks, vi, i'll keep looking

4:52 pm

Yay for Haz! (However belatedly that may be.)

4:52 pm

Scrabbler

Congrats, Hazel.

4:53 pm

Haz1558

It feels like a long time ago. I really liked this grid.

4:53 pm

Atalante

oh! that deserves smugness, yes

4:54 pm

Haz1558

It's only relative smugness though - I've finished, others were announcing their words left to find. You'll all be joining in the smugfest sooner or later.

4:55 pm

Scrabbler

I will soon be smug, after I find these last 4.

4:55 pm

Scrabbler

Is the 3rd ce5/12 related to the one before it?

4:56 pm

It differs only in the last letter.

TY, I had not gotten to that vowel yet, Haha.

ok, i'm close to begging now - still need two more st's - I have 5 with a in the third position and 2 with e - which one am I missing = PLEASE

st7/32 is what you're looking for

praise2him

5:30 pm

JBV

that's funny, Ata

5:38 pm

JBV

what is it, we don't even consider 3-letter words anymore?

5:39 pm

Atalante

I think so. When I play scramble, I find it sooo hard to even consider 3 letter words

5:39 pm

LadyNatts

you all play scramble on facebook?

5:39 pm

Atalante

yep

5:40 pm

JBV

well, for anyone who is still solving - don't bother to look for the following phantoms: cacti, cascade, catheter, acacia, shred, tact, etc. and good luck everybody - hope you all finish

LOL nutly! I should really be working on your story...

5:49 pm

Atalante

5:49 pm

evanonut

uh duh yeah...everyone wants to hear it

5:49 pm

stidmama

how's the weekend for you? first day in the last week (since Spring started) that we haven't had frost and/or snow in the morning here!

5:50 pm

stidmama

only three spinning word, ro 4/4, 6/18 and 7/28

5:50 pm

evanonut

5:50 pm

Atalante

hmmmm! where are my last 3 r's then!!

5:50 pm

stidmama

5:50 pm

evanonut

wuss

5:51 pm

stidmama

5:51 pm

stidmama

hmph. *withholds daily ration of rum from recalcitrant nut-pirate*

5:51 pm

Atalante

5:52 pm

evanonut

5:52 pm

Atalante

I hate that sh** and re-sh**. I always forget them

5:53 pm

stidmama

yeah, I don't mind the sh**, it's having to do it again that annoys... *grin*

5:53 pm

euphie

I am totally stuck now - 6 words to go. Any clues for st 7,32?

5:53 pm

stidmama

nutly, called me bad name. three days in brig!

5:53 pm

Atalante

i just have a complete blank about it

5:53 pm

stidmama

last st 7 was my final, past tense the last st 4

5:54 pm

stidmama

and to make the past tense, euphie, you need to double the last consonant on the 4

5:54 pm

euphie

ty again stidmama

5:54 pm

Atalante

2 left!

5:55 pm

stidmama

I love how the denmark and england flags are almost negative images of each other... I need to change my flag again. Where shall I sail the brigantine today?

5:55 pm

Atalante

papua new guinea

5:56 pm

stidmama

that sounds like a nice place... okay! *dreaming of papaya nectar and guava juice*

5:56 pm

stidmama

did that work?

5:56 pm

Atalante

no flag!

5:56 pm

stidmama

hmph. blank flag... maybe new zealand instead.

5:56 pm

Atalante

fireworks! listless!

5:56 pm

Atalante

cook islands!

5:57 pm

stidmama

okay, this will do for today

5:57 pm

stidmama

YAY atalante!!! *sails to jolly olde england to share grog and tales of derring-do*

5:57 pm

Atalante

very pleased to do it listless

5:58 pm

kje

congrats atalante!!!

5:58 pm

kje

hello all - back to finish this thing off 15 left -

5:58 pm

stidmama

that is quite an accomplishment, atalante. You're really stumped on how to finish that project, yes?

5:58 pm

stidmama

go kje go!

5:58 pm

Atalante

yes ...

5:59 pm

stidmama

I hate when I get partway on something and then it all comes to a standstill. It makes me feel rather useless.

6:00 pm

Atalante

oh yes, I don't know whether to watercolour it (which is bound to go wrong), stipple it, I'm not good enough to do this justice!

6:01 pm

euphie

are there any rule regarding which tile the grid uses as starting point if the same word can be started of two or more tiles?

6:01 pm

stidmama

the uppermost, left-most tile that will make the word is used, euphie

6:01 pm

Atalante

the "first" one in the grid - up and left is considered first

6:02 pm

stidmama

can you use a liquid mask for watercolors? I know some people do that with good effect

6:02 pm

euphie

thanks atalanta - that actually helps me :-)

6:02 pm

stidmama

stippling with colored pencil would be pretty, though

6:03 pm

Atalante

its a 3d picture - steps going back into some woodland, but I want it to look 2d, if that makes sense?

6:04 pm

stidmama

I think it does make sense, but not sure what would help you accomplish that goal. I really need to get my paints and crayons out again. This year "working" has really slowed me down artistically.

6:05 pm

Atalante

nor me! maybe I need to sleep on it

6:05 pm

kje

wow, these t's are laborious

6:06 pm

stidmama

yes, they were kje! need help?

6:06 pm

stidmama

I have about ten more minutes to help clue

6:06 pm

Gadget

How can there be that many "h's"? Don't see most of them...

6:07 pm

stidmama

hello gadget! I was the same -- until I hit the list

6:07 pm

euphie

My monkees have gone on strike - they typed every combination of CA 5,12 without any luck - could you help me get them back...

6:08 pm

stidmama

ca 5/12: in india, people are classified according to their ca*** (a social stratum)

6:09 pm

euphie

sorry - I meant AC 5,12

6:10 pm

stidmama

oh ac 5/12 is like the acid in vinegar: the "one" card in a deck + first two letters in the "bull" constellation

6:10 pm

Alexis35

wtf i have entered words like sorry and heads and it says its not a valid word, i'm a 1st timer, someone clue me in

6:11 pm

louuol2004

the letters have to touch each other alexis!!

6:11 pm

euphie

alexeis - the letters have to be connected to each other

6:11 pm

stidmama

alexis -- read the help file. words are formed from tiles that touch each other. although all the letters for those words are in the grid, the tiles do not touch.

6:11 pm

stidmama

a good place to get ideas and an explanation of how this works is http://www.freewebs.com/angelsong/

6:12 pm

Alexis35

Thanks guys

6:12 pm

Atalante

yes. sleep. I need to sleep. and hopefully inspiration will strike!

6:13 pm

euphie

ty stidmama - you are a true friend. My monkees have agreed to come back if they are garanteed 8 hours of rest each night

6:14 pm

stidmama

YAY euphie?

6:14 pm

stidmama

those monkeys are quite demanding, aren't they! LOL

6:15 pm

euphie

my monkees claim they have been abused for the last week or so :-)

6:15 pm

stidmama

sleep sounds good atalante, sweet dreams and see you again soon

6:16 pm

kje

Fireworks!!!

6:16 pm

stidmama

I have about three minutes *dragging feet, not wanting to leave* does anyone else need help?

6:16 pm

stidmama

YAY kje!!!!

6:17 pm

euphie

well - embarassed to ask - but perhaps a small clue for the ts word

6:17 pm

kje

thanks stid!

6:17 pm

stidmama

ts is like the first s4/5 word, just put the T in front

6:18 pm

Atalante

never be embarrassed to ask!

6:18 pm

stidmama

it's "the 18th letter of the Hebrew alphabet" according to webster's online

6:18 pm

Atalante

*really poofs*

6:18 pm

euphie

thanks again stidmama

6:18 pm

kje

see ya later - gonna try to stay awake for the flip this time : )

6:22 pm

Alexis35

6:22 pm

pugmama763

thanks for the greeting Stid,Ithought everone bailed for a minute

6:22 pm

stidmama

depends on the person alexis, some of us work for a long time and get all the words (the number of words changes daily), others work to get just a certain number of words each time

6:23 pm

stidmama

SE 5/10 is a fishy one....

6:23 pm

stidmama

tr 6/24 I think you can get on points --

6:24 pm

stidmama

no, I was going to leave about 8 minutes ago, but -- you know *hangs head in shame* it's hard to leave and go do other stuff

6:24 pm

euphie

thanks stid - i actually thoght i had typed in se 6,24 but obviously not .

6:25 pm

pugmama763

I know quite well,WE ARE ADDICTS HERE!

6:25 pm

6:26 pm

pugmama763

what kind of game ?word too?

6:26 pm

stidmama

I haven't been there, alexis -- have far too many games I play already!

6:27 pm

Alexis35

yup, its like text twist but it is 8 letters and you compete against about 15 players and you have 1 minute to unscramble as many words as you can, some stiff competition on their, its called multi eight

6:28 pm

euphie

not so competitive here - but very friendly

6:28 pm

pugmama763

Dear Stid ,would you please clue me on the lonely C a5/14?

6:28 pm

Alexis35

yea, only thing is there's no chatting

6:29 pm

stidmama

the CA 5/14 that comes after the 6/24 is ca + vowel + repeat first syllable...

6:29 pm

louuol2004

woo hoo...half way and i havent looked at the list yet!!...quite proud actually!lol

6:30 pm

stidmama

10:37 pm

Jindigo

22 Pink

10:37 pm

Jacula

No, not jealous, he's just a not very nice cat. He was licking her foot and she shook it to get him off because it tickled. Any sudden movement makes him lash ot - inveterate hunter that he is.

10:37 pm

pinkhatlil

lol jilli, time will tell

10:37 pm

Jacula

*out

10:38 pm

westford

she had some nerve moving her foot after he was cleaning for her ( I'm sure that's what he was thinking)

10:38 pm

jillibus

see, it's 8:38 pm here

10:38 pm

Jindigo

make that 21

10:39 pm

Jacula

He needs psychotherapy. His Mum , who he'd stayed with way past time to go, was killed on the main road right next to him. I know what his problems are.

10:39 pm

pinkhatlil

jac do you you feel disorientated with the clocks going forward?

10:39 pm

westford

oh poor kitty

10:39 pm

Jacula

No, Westford - he is a cat with a foot and sh4 fetish. He bonks my shoes!

10:40 pm

pinkhatlil

hehehe

10:40 pm

Jacula

pink - No, not so far.

10:40 pm

Jacula

Do you, pink?

10:40 pm

jillibus

happy to say my dear Susiecat came through her mat-removal very well and still looks lovely but somewhat skinnier.

10:41 pm

pinkhatlil

nor do i, maybe its because i slept through it

10:41 pm

jillibus

I guess I'm talking to myself

10:41 pm

pinkhatlil

does anyone know what i can do about my cat weeing on the sofa's?

10:42 pm

westford

thanks I finally got those 2 7's

10:42 pm

Jacula

Jilli - I did see you earlier saying your cat was having her matts removed at the beauty parlour.

10:42 pm

westford

geez pink

10:42 pm

pinkhatlil

sorry jilli, iwas writing as you posted, what has the cat lost weight. what is mat removal

10:42 pm

pythonx

Jillibus, my sister had to have her very furry cat shaved because of matting. Her husband couldn't look at the cat for days without bursting out laughing.

10:43 pm

Jacula

I resisted the temptation to post what we had to do to our lovely (now deceased) black Persian cross, Kira, after she got banned from our local grooming parlour.

10:43 pm

jillibus

jac, I was so worried about the anaesthetic but they gave her a very light dose and got rid of all the mats

10:44 pm

westford

pink is it a new cat or a new sofa?

10:44 pm

pugmama763

if nobody needs more clues ,this pug is ready to turn into a pumpkin....

10:45 pm

pinkhatlil

she is getting on my nerves, i dont want her to come in at the mo, but where its cold and rainbing alot i feel i have to let her in: running the risk of cat pee. It belongs to the landlady

10:45 pm

Jindigo

Thanks for all your help Pug - 20 to go for me. have a good evening.

10:46 pm

Jacula

jilli - I'll post the pics of what my Other Half had to do to Kira once a year, because she just would NOT be groomed. I'll put them on flickr at some point. She, too, was a cat with problems. She'd been abandoned by those she trusted at least 4 times that we know of before she found me.

10:46 pm

pugmama763

citric based sprays & bitter apple works for dogs , don't know about for cats

10:46 pm

westford

I've heard moth balls will keep cats off the furniture but you have the little one to worry about

10:46 pm

pugmama763

YW jin ,last chance ..

10:46 pm

jillibus

pink, she is a very old (nearly 19) longhaired calico in frail health who has stopped grooming herself so dead hair had accumulated and wound around itself making mats which hurt the skin and must be removed

10:47 pm

pinkhatlil

i bought my own 3 and 2 seater sofa's and moved my landlady's 2 seater upstairs in the doorway, which is fairly new. Willow has been in the family for nearly 5 years, so she knows, and it doesn't happen at mum's house

10:47 pm

Jindigo

no its ok - thanks though. :)

10:47 pm

westford

good night pug thanks for the help and take care

10:47 pm

Jacula

jilli - That's what happened to my Kira. She was much older than the original vet who checked her out when we first got her, thought.

10:48 pm

westford

do females make territory?

10:48 pm

westford

mark

10:48 pm

pinkhatlil

awwww jilli..is she ok now?

10:48 pm

pugmama763

good night my fellow Babblers,catch you on the morrow! POOF!

10:49 pm

pinkhatlil

my cat does west, she is always fighting whether it be dogs, other cats or foxes

10:49 pm

jillibus

anyway, Susie now still looks lovely -- no humiliating shaving -- a wonderful groomer from England, lol (midlans I think)

10:49 pm

Jacula

I'd say we still miss her, but she hasn't really left. She absolutely loved cheese and, when my Other Half, who is not given to flights of fancy, was making pizza this evening, he said she was rubbing around his legs all the time. And I know I often go to pull out a dining chair and it's heavy 'cos she's sitting on it, like she always did before she died.

10:50 pm

pinkhatlil

if they do mark territory she can do it outside lol

10:51 pm

jillibus

sorry about typos -- doing this by the light of the monitor only -- respecting the world dark hour, 8 - 9 pm.

10:51 pm

gfball84887

If you dont have the pro version of Babble, do you still accrue points?

10:55 pm

Jacula

Jilli - I don't think my Kira, who arrived when the time was right to love me like my dog did, will leave me until I get another dog. I think she's putting I want a dog thoughts in my head now, though I haven't been ready for 12 years or a bit more to love a dog again. I miss having a female cat, too, because, before Kira who was totally mine, I've almost always had a half cat (a female that belonged to someone else but spent half her time with me).

10:56 pm

pinkhatlil

yes gfball

10:57 pm

jillibus

Kipling said "Don't give your heart to a dog to tear..."

10:57 pm

Jacula

Besides which, I have a sack and a half of cat litter to use up! Male cat never 'goes' in the house unless it's absolutely unavoidable.

10:57 pm

Jacula
