*grin*

4:37 am

grannyrose

babrab, it means herin and i can do lunch

4:37 am

herinfernallady

But that isn't the sodding point. EVERYONE but 2 people were in the chat as everyone else got sick of it. And im just quoting what was said back to me

4:37 am

herinfernallady

when I polietly brought up the issue

4:38 am

herinfernallady

YAH Lunch

4:38 am

sprite

don't let one person rattle your cage, lady.

4:38 am

Andree

herin you can close chat, everyone has their own ways, i just lurk

4:38 am

grannyrose

whoot, tgi's ? what time?

4:39 am

herinfernallady

Except Rose. I can't eat unhealthy as my behind needs to lose 10 kilos before may

4:39 am

sprite

it is a weird notion, that one should have to close the chat just to not be bothered by one or two endless listers.

4:39 am

Andree

wish i could come to melb and join you both

4:39 am

Andree

and bring mrp with me

4:39 am

grannyrose

hey, we'll walk it off with retail therapy!

4:40 am

sprite

but it is becoming more clear all the time that when the High And Mighty has spoken and run off, the subject is closed to all who might possibly oppose.

4:40 am

grannyrose

oh, andree, wouldn't that be great! * sigh * one day.....

4:41 am

Andree

it would be such fun rose

4:41 am

herinfernallady

I needs a pretty dress for a stupid wedding.

4:41 am

herinfernallady

Snicker sprite

4:42 am

herinfernallady

I am to tired to care

4:42 am

grannyrose

hmmmm, thinking, maybe herin and i could come up one weekend.......

4:42 am

Atalante

who is the High and Mighty??!

4:42 am

sprite

I don't snicker, hun, I laugh freely. And think of the seed of good sense in my profile text.

4:42 am

herinfernallady

ROADDDDDDDDD TRIP

4:43 am

Andree

that would be great rose

4:43 am

herinfernallady

Then I could go to house of fetish and get my corest

4:43 am

sprite

sounds like fun to me

4:43 am

o-o

okay, lets everyone take a deep breath or several

4:43 am

herinfernallady

I need to find the dress i want to wear. I had a dream about it. Thick velvet matterial

4:43 am

grannyrose

nooooo, was thinking more like flapping our wings, and if that doesn't work, we'll hop on aplane.

4:44 am

sprite

I'd love being able to fly. By myself, not by plane.

4:44 am

Andree

i have a broomstick rose!!!

4:44 am

grannyrose

i hope you mean corset, herin, can't picture you in a corest

4:44 am

sprite

am breathing, BabbleRabble, all is well

4:44 am

herinfernallady

mmmmm I don't need to a broomstick. I am powered by bitchwitch LD

4:45 am

Atalante

who is the High and Mighty??! *am utterly intrigued*

4:45 am

grannyrose

hey, did my mother leave hers behind again

4:45 am

herinfernallady

**coughs haz**

4:45 am

Andree

deep breath sounds good babble

4:45 am

herinfernallady

buahhhaha Granny maybe she left it with my mil

4:45 am

sprite

what is a corest?

4:46 am

Atalante

what on earth did Haz do??!

4:46 am

Atalante

(corset)

4:46 am

herinfernallady

Thank you

4:46 am

Andree

haz is hardly ever on and when is is a great cluer

4:46 am

grannyrose

lol, herin, i wonder if they have met?

4:46 am

sprite

just scroll back if you want to know, Ata

4:47 am

Atalante

I did. I can't see anything to deserve such a thing

4:47 am

sprite

and hi to you

4:47 am

herinfernallady

So lunch next fridays Rose?

4:47 am

grannyrose

oh yes, herin, what time?

4:48 am

herinfernallady

um

4:48 am

herinfernallady

idono

4:48 am

Andree

no me either ata

4:48 am

grannyrose

1pm sound ok?

4:48 am

sprite

so we differ in opinion. I can certainly live with that.

4:49 am

Atalante

but Haz isn't allowed to differ in opinion?

4:49 am

herinfernallady

Yes

4:49 am

Andree

we are all different with differing opinions, would be awful if we all had the same thoughts

4:49 am

grannyrose

dinner ready, bbl. herin, if you are gone when i get back, will ring you next week

4:49 am

herinfernallady

Oh hang on next friday

4:49 am

sprite

as much as I am

4:50 am

herinfernallady

ROSE I THINK I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT

4:50 am

sprite

wow lady, easy :)

4:50 am

Andree

i feel i have missed something here, but don't enlighten me

4:50 am

herinfernallady

Wrong friday Yes rose

4:50 am

grannyrose

nnnnnnoooooo! what about next friday? and darn, what time your appointment?

4:51 am

Atalante

I'm confused. All she said was that there's more than 1 way of playing babble, and each way is equally valid. And if the way babble is being played at thet time doesn't suit you, well come back later or hide the chat. Wasn't it? Did I miss something?

4:51 am

grannyrose

whew, can go and eat, cya

4:51 am

sprite

bye rose, have a nice dinner

4:51 am

lynxxx

Please, let's not attack one another. Everyone plays differently. Let us all respect that - and each other. Remember "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all" would be a good motto here

4:51 am

o-o

there have been some things simmering in here for a long time .. no one will win by getting in people's faces

4:52 am

Andree

i am confused too, haz was lovely to me when i started and so helpful with clues

4:53 am

Andree

agree lynxxx, and its a great motto

4:53 am

Andree

and hi lynxxx

4:53 am

sprite

or by dropping a line about how people SHOULD behave and then running off. That is my opinion.

4:53 am

herinfernallady

Well isn't it a bit bloody rude that just 2 people get to have the whole chat for ages.

4:54 am

lynxxx

Ata, Ata...tell me is Afterlife big over there? great show! I get to see it now after Dr W & Torchwood

4:54 am

herinfernallady

right im going to shut up now

4:55 am

Andree

oh dear

4:55 am

Atalante

better than not saying anything

4:55 am

sprite

I agree, lady, but I have wasted already too much energy on this, as on the whole high and mighty thing. I'll shut up and will hide the chat, in spite of the many lovely persons here who I love to chat with.

4:55 am

Atalante

yes, I agree, herin, it's entirely rude that 2 people hogged the chat. But to be blunt shit happens

4:55 am

Atalante

Afterlife? Never heard of it!!!

4:56 am

herinfernallady

as i said SPRITE COME BACK

4:56 am

Andree

sprite don't go we love you

4:57 am

herinfernallady

Seen After life it wasn't on long

4:57 am

Atalante

I want to see DOllhouse

4:57 am

lynxxx

mmm made in 2005 Ata. Really nice acting by Lesley Sharp

4:58 am

Atalante

*looks it up*

4:58 am

o-o

how totally disingenuous

4:59 am

Atalante

interesting. will have to find that

5:03 am

lynxxx

Ohhh - Dollhouse looks interesting. Must ask my daughter if she has heard about it. Big Josh W fan

5:04 am

Atalante

does she like Dr Horrible? Josh W's last effort. It's soooo brilliantly funny

5:07 am

westford

hi Sandy & Liz

5:13 am

Lizsark

hey my favourite ever word is in the grid :)) ne4 Goose

5:13 am

Atalante

I was just writing to you on fb :)

5:14 am

Lizsark

Ata I've been a plonker....

5:14 am

Atalante

LOL

5:14 am

Lizsark

I sent you that package I told you about - and this mornning found the brochure on my desk (duh) - I'll send it separately. *Blush*

5:15 am

Atalante

*sporfles* :D

5:15 am

Andree

hi sandy and liz

5:15 am

Lizsark

Sqooshy floofy sporfles indeed

5:15 am

Lizsark

hi Lynxxx and Andree

5:17 am

Atalante

I'm trying to find Geradl Durrell's description of a Bedlington. it's so funny

5:18 am

lynxxx

hah - te6.21 the madagascan an8.40 is here

5:18 am

Lizsark

Ahhh Gerald Durrell - I' a big fan

5:19 am

lynxxx

some-one has a Bedlington?

5:20 am

Atalante

I can't find it, I'd have to re-read the books to find it. Bear in mind I read these books about 15 years ago - but Geralds aunt (who like spiritualism) had a pack of Bedlingtons and they would surround her, shivering and crying and looking pathetic

5:21 am

Lizsark

He had a wonderful way of writing. We go to the "zoo" whenever we are in Jersey

5:21 am

Atalante

we met a Bedlington on the beach this morning :)

5:22 am

lynxxx

very cute looking

5:22 am

Atalante

of all his books, I remember the bedlington description above all!!

5:22 am

Andree

89 left, at a complete standstill, back later

5:23 am

Lizsark

Bye Andree

5:23 am

Atalante

they *tremble*

5:25 am

phandmd

non ne

5:25 am

lynxxx

hi Phand!

5:26 am

Atalante

I'd love to go to the Durrell zoo. One day!

5:26 am

Lizsark

Its lovely. Not very big but they do such amazing projects

5:27 am

sandyloo

where is durrel zoo at?

5:27 am

phandmd

good morning

5:27 am

phandmd

hey, Lynxxx, I have an application in to adopt a greyhound!

5:27 am

Lizsark

Sandy its in Jersey in the Channel Islands GB

5:28 am

Atalante

it's a true zoo in the meaning that it's keeping animal populations viable and well. and researching animals.

5:28 am

sandyloo

is it special in some way at?

5:28 am

Lizsark

Its called a wildlife conservation trust really, but we all call it the zoo

5:28 am

Lizsark

they've been saving species from eextinction for 50 years

5:28 am

Atalante

yes, that's better. very conservation based. which is wonderful

5:29 am

lynxxx

oooh Phand...have you chosen one yet? where are you getting it from?

5:29 am

Atalante

oops brb

5:29 am

Lizsark

http://www.durrellwildlife.org/

5:29 am

phandmd

I applied to Blueridge Greyhounds

5:29 am

phandmd

I haven't picked one yet.

5:29 am

phandmd

They kind of pick them for you. My home visit is sometime next week

5:32 am

lynxxx

Torch & Kiss look nice. Wow they check you out at home too - that's great

5:32 am

sandyloo

I believe greyhounds can make great pets. In australia you can adopt them too, but the law requires that they are muzzled in public

5:33 am

phandmd

They don't have to be muzzled in public here, but I think they recommend it at first inside the home if you have other animals

5:33 am

Lizsark

Really Sandy? They dont have to be muzzled here. There is a rescue centre for greyhounds in Jersey that rehomes dogs from the UK . One lives here on Sark. No muzzle - very placid

5:33 am

phandmd

which we do, we have 2 cats

5:33 am

phandmd

I have wanted a grey for years, but didn't think my husband would agree. But he talked to someone about them and agreed!

5:34 am

sandyloo

they are placid and have great natures- but as 'sight hounds' they can go after little dogs-or so they say

5:34 am

lynxxx

In Victoria and a few other states you don't have to - as long as they have come through the GAPs program Sandy

5:34 am

Lizsark

I love them :)

5:34 am

sandyloo

GAP?

5:34 am

phandmd

I am hoping they prove to be a good match for our family. I believe they do.

5:35 am

Lizsark

right I really have to go and sort the house out. I took the morning off work to blitz the place and look at me sitting here....

5:35 am

lynxxx

Greyhound Adoption Program - one in each State. They 'test' each dog

5:35 am

sandyloo

aah that sounds sensible

5:36 am

Lizsark

have fun :) bye everyone :) Say bye to Ata for me when she gets back

5:36 am

sandyloo

they do have lovely natures

5:36 am

phandmd

have a productive day

5:36 am

lynxxx

Have a look at the sites Sandy, esp the Victorian one, you'll fall in love I guarantee

5:36 am

sandyloo

foxhounds are illegal to keep as pets

5:36 am

lynxxx

bye Liz

5:37 am

sandyloo

I used to hunt lol that is why i mentioned that

5:37 am

Atalante

oh poo I missed Liz

5:37 am

sandyloo

we fell in love with all of thehounds

5:38 am

Atalante

foxhounds aren't illegal to keep as pets here

5:38 am

phandmd

I don't think they are illegal here either

5:38 am

Atalante

they certainly aren't ideal pets though

5:39 am

sandyloo

they are not suitable as domestic pets as they definitely hunt to kill -they would kill our chooks and our cat

5:39 am

LoriP

G'd morning Babblers! Bigger grid today, yea!

5:39 am

phandmd

chook?

5:39 am

sandyloo

chooks! they lay eggs!

5:40 am

phandmd

5:40 am

sandyloo

hi lori

5:40 am

lynxxx

hi Lori

5:40 am

sandyloo

yes phan, its an aussie chicken

5:41 am

phandmd

I see.

5:41 am

sandyloo

we have called them chooks since for ever!

5:42 am

LoriP

No list? Shirley must be the end times.

5:43 am

sandyloo

in fact i have to put ours away soon . we let them wander about during the day, but at night the fox would get them. lucky that lately our border collie has decided she hates foxes

5:43 am

Atalante

doom! doom and gloom!

5:43 am

sandyloo

At , todays grid is quite nice

5:44 am

5:46 am

sandyloo

5:46 am

LoriP

5:46 am

westford

how're you sandy?

5:46 am

KristineNas

And there is 1 i hiding from me too DAMNGIT

5:46 am

Atalante

I thought you said you fed the coffee to the cats there for a moment

5:46 am

KristineNas

DANGIT**

5:46 am

phandmd

we had one of those days yesterday, Sandy, today it is cold again and will be for a few days

5:46 am

sandyloo

5:47 am

westford

5:47 am

sandyloo

5:47 am

LoriP

lol I did too Ata. Caffeine kitties.

5:47 am

westford

that would not be good ata lol

5:47 am

phandmd

I am a bigger fan of heat than of cold

5:47 am

westford

fuss budgets wouldn't drink it anyway

5:47 am

Atalante

caffeine stoned cats is a scary thought

5:48 am

lynxxx

Ata - Jess loved Dr Horrible, and says Dollhouse gets better after about 6 episodes becoming 'pure Josh W'.

5:48 am

phandmd

not that I like intense heat and we are in a quite humid area, which make the heat even worse

5:48 am

Atalante

oh great! I hope we get to see it soon

5:48 am

sandyloo

if you lived here it would be the opposite phan , we have had very very few days under 33 since december, its too much

5:48 am

westford

I'm sure I'll be complaining about the heat and humidity sooner than I'd like

5:49 am

sandyloo

i adore our winters , they are very mild and enjoyable

5:50 am

westford

builder called today he's framed up the new porch in Maine 12' x 20' it's going to be so nice

5:50 am

Atalante

Hobbit's got her booster / check-up today. Wondering whether to mention that her breathing is very "nasal". And she snores. A lot.

5:50 am

phandmd

I would mention it, why not?

5:50 am

LoriP

I love your profile west. :)

5:51 am

lynxxx

Yes, may as well get your money's worth

5:51 am

Atalante

I hate feeling like one of those dog owners who mentions every tiny scratch and problem!

5:51 am

LoriP

You should, I would think.

5:52 am

LoriP

Peace of mind, and all that.

5:52 am

phandmd

I would, especially if it is a change

5:52 am

Atalante

but if I had nasal passages as long as hers, I think I'd get snotty too

5:52 am

lynxxx

I am sure vets appreciate pet owners who care

5:52 am

Atalante

hopefully it will be the pretty Irish boy vet. I forgot to ask. BUgger I shoudl phone and ask

5:52 am

sandyloo

I like hearing about dog health problems, lol

5:53 am

sandyloo

5:53 am

sandyloo

I just love those irish accents

5:53 am

Atalante

5:55 am

Atalante

5:56 am

LoriP

Doh, missed an obvious word. Thanks again Lynx

5:56 am

Atalante

there's a horrid german vet at the practice and hobbit absolutely hates her. she growls and barks and refuses to be nice

5:56 am

phandmd

Did you ask like that? "Is my appt. with the pretty Irish vet?"

5:56 am

LoriP

I read a thingie that said we just skim over the written word, as long as the first and last letters are sort-of in the right place (?), we can 'read' the word, no matter how scrambled the letters in between --- just as well, considering my typing.

7:59 am

lynxxx

True enough Chris, just went back to your previous post and I had read it OK not even recognising that various had been spelled incorrectly. Just as well for me too, I never check spells before I send

8:02 am

Christine

Apart from the obvious (vasriou), my spelling's okay, except that after 48 years here, I still sometimes think in English /English as opposed to American/English.

8:02 am

lynxxx

don't we all!

8:03 am

Christine

shoot, forgot I plugged-in the kettle, about 20 minutes ago ....

8:05 am

o-o

Explain the difference, please. two players are present at the flip. One asks for a clue and is told it is too early. To gives clues so early spoils the fun for players who want to find words on their own.

8:06 am

o-o

Five hours later, two players start on the grid. One asks for clues for all the large words and gets clues. The other wonders why the clues since it spoils the fun for him/her.

8:08 am

LoriP

Back! G'd mornign again Babblers.

8:08 am

Aloyisius

hi BR.. I turn off chat when I want to scan the grid without clues.. I guess that is an option for everyone.. so, the "one hour" after the flip no-no for clues is just for chatters, must be..??

8:08 am

BR each to their own i guess

8:09 am

welcome back LoriP

8:10 am

LoriP

Tell ya' what. All this crap simmering just below the surface, is ridiculous

8:10 am

o-o

Well, the option of turning off the chat is available at the flip too

8:10 am

loredana

yay let it all float to the top hey LoriP

8:10 am

Singling out anyone, for offering the practical alernative of CLOSING CHAT is idiotic.

Takuma Sato

howdy folks

8:15 am

LoriP

Chat ebbs and wanes here, and it's a beautiful thing. Sometimes laughs, sometimes sadness, you name it. Sometimes it's like a friggin' Dear Diary, with things best left off a public forum. It is what it is.

question for all the crafters/sewers in the chog today...
for those of us who have zero (and i mean ZERO) sewing abilities, would you recommend the no-sew glues or the iron-on fusible webbing stuff for hemming tops/skirts/trousers, etc? any other ideas?

8:47 am

Aloyisius

10:36 am

hlj25950

hello stid

10:37 am

Judi

For anyone who is thinking of seeing "The Watchmen"... don't. It's one of the worst movies I've seen in ages. Horrrrible.

10:37 am

stidmama

thanks for the warning, judi (not that we see movies...) seems so many of the bit budget films aren't that great.

10:38 am

stidmama

so I need help on the E in the fourth column please, middle row.

10:38 am

stidmama

any or all...

10:38 am

Atalante

really? everyone else has said it's amazing!

10:38 am

Judi

Very graphic violence, nudity. 10 years ago it would have gotten an X rating. I'm no prude, but this stuff didn't help the movie at all.

10:38 am

stidmama

grey top left corner!

10:39 am

Atalante

that's watchmen for you lol

10:39 am

Judi

Definitely not for kids under 17. Total crap.

10:39 am

stidmama

Judi, I had a similar reaction to a book that was required reading this quarter! It had some lovely writing, but the graphic nature of the sex and violence was quite disturbing.

10:39 am

LoriP

er 5, rigid? heh

10:39 am

Judi

I like my superheroes super and heroic.

10:39 am

stidmama

I think people are confusing "liberated thinking" with smut.

10:40 am

stidmama

certainly the (much younger) other students in my class hadn't noticed how offensive it was, but I suspect they watch things like "girls gone wild"

10:40 am

Judi

I have nothing against smut, in the proper context. ;)

10:40 am

stidmama

oh gee, speaking of smut, eh lori! thanks!

10:40 am

Atalante

but watchmen aren't meant to be heroic and sparkly ...

10:41 am

LoriP

: D

10:41 am

Judi

Having never read the fanzines or comics, I guess I wasn't properly prepared for the movie.

10:41 am

Atalante

um ... they certainly aren't happy and sparkly

10:42 am

stidmama

ooooh. I found the pa 7

10:42 am

Hi for a few minutes! Trying to juggle a few minutes' Babbling in with two active four year olds...

11:35 am

rbud

HI, Monkey!

11:37 am

Vicuna

You shouldn't juggle computers or four-year-olds. It is bound to end badly.

11:37 am

kje

lol vi

11:37 am

MonkeyGames

I suppose you're right. (Resentfully shuffles feet but sees wisdom).

11:37 am

FMitch

Greeting Vi, how are you and your brilliant offspring?

11:38 am

Vicuna

Sets a bad example, too. I know you don't want the four-year-olds juggling the computer.

11:38 am

cooking implement+top card+vowel

11:38 am

Hi MG

11:38 am

Vicuna

Greetings, all!

11:38 am

Vicuna

The brilliant offspring are brilliant, thanks! =D

11:38 am

maybe the 4-yr-olds could sub for monkeys on the keyboard?

11:38 am

FMitch

Hey mm, whats the latest from the film world?

11:38 am

MonkeyGames

That's true. What was I thinking?

11:39 am

Vicuna

Had their recital last weekend and we all survived - even enjoyed the experience. Phew!

11:39 am

movieman

Saw Watchmen last Sunday Fmitch

11:39 am

movieman

Anyone see my pa7 clue?

11:39 am

MonkeyGames

Mine just keeps spelling his namd, given the chance, and the guest cannot be relied upon not to stand on the laptop...

11:39 am

FMitch

Oh what did you think, saw Jonathon Ross reviewing on earlier this week.

11:39 am

Vicuna

Good point, rbud. But you know that statistically speaking it takes a million of them.

11:39 am

MonkeyGames

I'll leave them to the V-Tech kid-resistant case for now.

11:40 am

MonkeyGames

I saw it, MM! Thanks!

11:40 am

i thought it was bloody good mitch, can't wait for the dvd

11:40 am

Atalante

I think she was expecting t to be happy and shiny superheroes

11:40 am

MonkeyGames

Hey, Ata, shouldn't it take neriad? In addition to mythical folk, isn't it a class of sea slugs or something??

11:41 am

FMitch

It's a very dark/gothic comic mag crossover to the big screen, looked ood but not something I owuld go see though

11:41 am

Atalante

you're spelling it wrong!

11:41 am

joshuavorbis

got all those damn c's now

11:41 am

MonkeyGames

Ahhh!!! Is the correct spelling in the grid?

11:41 am

Vicuna

Diff combo of vowels, I think, MG.

11:41 am

Atalante

I can't wait to see it

11:41 am

joshuavorbis

i didn't like watchmen all that much, but then again i never read the comics

11:41 am

FMitch

I am drawn towards the new clint Eastwood movie

11:42 am

FMitch

Hi there josh, not a fav genre of mine either

11:42 am

movieman

The next big movie on the horizon is the Star Trek movie

11:42 am

11:43 am

MonkeyGames

Cool, I found it too now.

11:43 am

FMitch

11:43 am

Aloyisius

so, is the ad5.14 fishy? spinning wheels here

11:43 am

MonkeyGames

Nothing so simple as smooshed glasses... .... Started with normal pinkeye caught from a string of neighbors. Then it turned into a secondary bacterial infection, also with massive tonsillitis. Antibiotics, two kinds of eye drops, etc. Now the pinkeye and all that are gone but my left eye stings all the time and I see blurry out of it, so the doctor is sending me to the opthalmologist.

11:55 am

Oh, bye vi!

Thanks. Now that the actual infection is gone and I can do nifty stuff like swallow water again, I am not suffering... but I am concerned. Probably just corneal scarring that will heal itself but I'm glad I can have it looked at.

3:53 pm

Atalante

3:53 pm

The FDA is so overly picky about insect presence in all foods. Grind them up small enough and no one will know.

3:53 pm

Atalante

3:53 pm

Aussieme

Open the freezer, and have whatever falls oput first !!

3:53 pm

I have heard that, Vic. Serves the aphids right for being such klingons.

3:54 pm

Vicuna

Poor Hobbit, eating spiders.....

3:56 pm

Judi

I would think starfish would be toxic as well as distasteful.

3:56 pm

Atalante

3:56 pm

Atalante
