Beautiful icon jilli - am missing it for sure

1:47 am

westford

can you drive to the states and fly across then drive back up?

1:47 am

Just1Mar

we could but it's a hassle esp with border crossings now

1:47 am

dart001

sometimes screwy rules on rental cars

1:48 am

westford

train not much better price wise and not enough time

1:48 am

Just1Mar

we'd have to drive to either upsate ny or vermont....fly to seattle...then arrange for transport to van....is it really worth it for all that extra time? not sure it is

1:48 am

westford

it's hard when kids move so far away

1:48 am

jillibus

that at7 is in a real knot! (went to morewords too)

1:49 am

westford

but she has family there?

1:49 am

jillibus

ty flosey -- we'll be glad to get you back!

1:49 am

Just1Mar

what would be ideal is to fly to Calgary (at least for the first trip out west) and either rent a car or take the train thru the Rockies...then fly home from BC directly to Montreal

1:49 am

Just1Mar

she does and they are planning to stay with them too, when they end up there, til they can get on their feet

1:50 am

westford

now you're talking just I have heard that is the most beautiful trip

1:50 am

jillibus

sounds good, just -- can you make a side trip here?

1:50 am

dart001

banff jasper etc are great

1:50 am

Just1Mar

I will certainly try jilli...

1:51 am

flosey

The worst thing about planning these dream trips - fly to Calgary, train (or dirve) to Vancouver, fly back to Montreal - is that when you try to actually do them, you discover the airlines' other little ugly secret - one-way tickets cost more than twice as much as round-trip tickets, as a rule! My mother-in-law used to just buy two round-trip tickets - one for each pair of destinations, and throw away the unused half, and save money over buying one-way tickets.

2:01 am

westford

joshuavorbis

2:51 am

joshuavorbis

that's pretty weird

2:52 am

Just1Mar

2:53 am

Just1Mar

not sure if you're needing another ey but if you are it's prob the plural of the first ey

2:53 am

joshuavorbis

i was missing that one - ty

2:54 am

joshuavorbis

so this one is not so difficult and everyone has had their fun and gone on?

2:54 am

Just1Mar

don't think so...think it's more a sunday night grid to those who have to work tomorrow

2:55 am

Just1Mar

except for me who doesn't work..at least not anymore but wish I did for the income

2:56 am

joshuavorbis

tomorrow i (potentially) have to mow the lawn

2:57 am

Just1Mar

lol well that's a fun thing if it's your own lawn and not someone elses

2:57 am

joshuavorbis

you couldn't pay me to mow someone else's

2:57 am

Just1Mar

so if it's a nice day enjoy it!

2:58 am

joshuavorbis

3:07 am

Just1Mar

5:24 am

lynxxx

I can see. My MRP is tall! Is that a Jag jacket you have on?

5:26 am

Andree

its a most unusual jacket, all x-stitched, i bought it from the hill tribes in thailand nearly 30 years ago

5:28 am

lynxxx

I like it! The image is small which is why I was confusing it with something Jag did years ago, same colors

5:30 am

Andree

its reversable , becomes a black jacket with x-stitched pockets, i must like it too, must be the oldest thing in my wardrobe

5:34 am

lynxxx

BBS getting some coffee - and turning Torchwood off. CofE was a fantastic series but there is only so many times i can watch it

5:37 am

Andree

i watched it saturday night, tonight seems to be a rerun or am I confused

6:00 am

lynxxx

hi Jac. Is that your pooch? a shepherd?

6:01 am

Jacula

Hi Andree. It was my dog but he's been gone many years now. He was a Jack Russell x Sheltie.

lynxxx

He was a good looking dog - a good mix. Love the head

Hello there!

Andree

6:08 am

Haz1558

Thanks lynxxx - I always say that she's a much prettier version of me. It was a very happy day.

6:09 am

Haz1558

Hello Andree - nice to see the babble gathering in Sydney as well!

6:10 am

Haz1558

What's the weather doing, Jac? It keeps threatening rain here and then changing its mind.

6:11 am

Jacula

Haz - Nice at the moment - sun's out. Hail, thunder and heavy showers predicted on and off, though.

6:12 am

Haz1558

It sounds like what has been forecast for us as well. Still, it's better than last year.

6:12 am

Jacula

Marginally!

6:13 am

Jacula

We picked the wrong week last week for our summer hol.:( Mostly rain with a cold wind coming off the sea when it wasn't raining.

6:13 am

Haz1558

Last year we hardly stopped wringing out our raincoats.

Happy Bastille Day, everyone! http://tinyurl.com/5mfqjq

Oh dear - where did you go on holiday?

Jacula

North Devon.

6:14 am

lynxxx

hi Une

6:14 am

Uneaixoise

howdy, lynxxx ;-)

6:14 am

Haz1558

You'd have thought you'd be safe with the weather in Devon. Lots of cream teas to compensate?

6:15 am

Jacula

Hi Une.

6:15 am

Uneaixoise

beautiful pic, haz!

6:15 am

Uneaixoise

hey, jacs :-)

6:15 am

Jacula

Not a single cream tea, Haz. LOL

6:15 am

Haz1558

Salut, Une. Thank you!

6:16 am

Andree

hi une

6:16 am

Uneaixoise

terrific pic, andree!

6:16 am

Jacula

Well, I'd better leave my last 29 words until later. I've got gooseberries and blackcurrants to pick and a he4/6 of post-holiday ironing to do.

6:17 am

Uneaixoise

yum, jacs!

6:17 am

Haz1558

How high is the he4/6? I still treasure the memory of the he4/6 that was heading ceilngward.

6:17 am

Andree

great isn't it, thats mrp in the middle

6:18 am

Uneaixoise

yes, terrific!

6:18 am

lynxxx

Bye Jac

6:19 am

Jacula

LOL, Haz. Not too bad now I've sorted out what doesn't need ironing. There will be a pic., on my blog, of everything I had to wash. (When I get round to writing it.)

6:19 am

Jacula

BBL. Happy Babbling.

6:19 am

Uneaixoise

must take the pups out -- BBL

6:21 am

Haz1558

Enjoy your dinner, lynxxx.

6:22 am

Haz1558

It looks like you and me, zoozz. We can talk about them now they're gone.

6:22 am

zoozzoom

LOL...as if we would do a thing like that. :-)

6:23 am

Haz1558

Oh come on. It's not as if there are people lurking or that this chat log is preserved forever.

6:23 am

Haz1558

We can speak freely.

6:26 am

Andree

i'm listening

6:27 am

zoozzoom

hahaha..knew there was lurkers here

6:27 am

Haz1558

I forgot you were still here, Andree! How did you enjoy meeting up with grannyrose? Was she as you imagined?

6:28 am

zoozzoom

what is this lickety chat for on expert..when i click it it covers the original chat area with a blank box..and nothing happens.

6:29 am

Andree

it was fun, we had lunch then walked around the harbour and rocks area

6:29 am

Haz1558

Lickety chat used to be operational - if you had expert you could click on it, enter a password and chat away from the main chat log. It's maybe out of use now.

6:30 am

Haz1558

And I bet the conversation didn't flag for a minute, Andree.

6:30 am

Andree

then we took them to their boat, hope they have a lovely trip, i went to vanuatu once, thought it a horrid place, but i didn't tell them that

6:30 am

zoozzoom

thanks haz..saves me trying to use it then.

6:31 am

Haz1558

No problem, zooz.

6:31 am

Haz1558

That was very tactful of you, Andree. Hopefully it has improved - what was horrid about it?

6:37 am

zoozzoom

BBL

6:38 am

Andree

it was over 20 years ago, so don't remember the details but it seemed very bare compared to other tropical site and so expensive even by today's standards

6:38 am

Haz1558

Bye zooz.

6:38 am

Andree

bye zooz

6:39 am

Haz1558

Hopefully it has improved since that time, Andree.

6:39 am

Andree

6:39 am

Haz1558

to5 - a gemstone?

LynnNate08

at 7?

6:43 am

Andree

hi kje

6:44 am

Andree

my last word de6 please

6:44 am

Haz1558

at7 - plural of a word meaning susceptibility to allergy. Or, run together the preceding at4/5 with pastry products.

6:44 am

Haz1558

de6 - a tyrant or dictator, de plus a word meaning to stain or to see from a distance

6:45 am

kje

like at6 dermatitis

6:45 am

Andree

thx haz

6:45 am

Andree

and fireworks

Haz1558

Congratulations Andree!

6:45 am

woohoo andree!!!

6:46 am

sadie52

congrats andree

6:46 am

LynnNate08

didnt get the at 7?

6:46 am

LynnNate08

perhps a diff clue?

6:46 am

Andree

you really are the clue queen haz

6:46 am

Haz1558

If you have the at4/5, in your head add the sometimes vowel and then make it plural.

6:46 am

Haz1558

I'm out of practice, Andree!

6:47 am

kje

wonder what that crown looks like? engarved with babblets?

6:48 am

Haz1558

As long as it has diamonds.....

6:48 am

kje

babblets and monkeys!

6:48 am

kje

diamonds for eyes

6:48 am

kje

and i dots

6:50 am

Andree

off to bed for me, its school hols and i have taken tomorrow off work so i can take the kids out for the day

6:50 am

kje

have fun andree

6:50 am

Andree

i am tossing up between iceskating and a movie

6:50 am

kje

be active!

6:51 am

kje

and take pics, cuz we wanna laugh ; )

6:51 am

Andree

goodnight and happy babbling

6:52 am

Haz1558

Good for you! Ice-skating sounds like something you could supervise from the sidelines, movies might give you the chance to snooze. Although I hate how loud they make soundtracks these days. Do they think we're all deaf?

6:52 am

Haz1558

Bye Andree.

6:52 am

kje

i have asked them to turn the volume down in the past... and other times have stuck tissues in my ears... if it hurts, it is too loud!

6:53 am

Haz1558

Oh good, I'm not the only one. Seriously, it is so loud that I can't 'hear' what people are saying.

6:54 am

kje

i think it is a sign we are getting old haz

6:55 am

Haz1558

That's possibly true, but I did read an article somewhere that said that the sound people are so pleased with all the effects they can do that they pile on the sounds, without thinking how badly it muffles the dialogue. Or we could just be getting old.

6:55 am

kje

yes.... I can see that

6:55 am

Haz1558

It actually makes me reluctant to go and see films in the cinema.

6:56 am

kje

and the laugh tracks on TV are too loud too... besides being annoying

6:56 am

Haz1558

Yes, and they insist on broadcasting ads at top volume as well.

6:56 am

kje

there is a theater near me that is called the lounge... all seats are sofas, chaises, and bean bag chairs... and the have a bar

6:57 am

kje

that is my kind of theater ; )

6:57 am

kje

we sound old and crotchety... we should stop! LOL

6:57 am

Haz1558

But is it still loud?

6:57 am

kje

i Have only been twice, and so far so good... saw Up and Che

6:58 am

Haz1558

We have a series on BBC here called 'Grumpy old women'. Give the ladies any subject and they can grumble about it. It's terribly comforting to know that you're not the only one to rage about things.

6:59 am

kje

LOL haz - sounds... ummm... uplifting

7:00 am

Haz1558

It's very funny. Quite a few of the women interviewed are writers/actresses/comediennes so it's grumbling with humour rather than grumbling with attitude, if you know what I mean.

7:00 am

kje

actually i have no TV at the moment - mine ate a DVD then dies

7:00 am

kje

yes, I can see that it could be funny

7:01 am

Haz1558

How very greedy of the TV. TVs have changed so much, you only seem to get things that look like computer monitors - or cinema screens.

7:02 am

kje

mine is (was I guess) about 7-8 years old, so not slim and sexy... I guess i will have to pry the dvd out... it will not be pretty

7:03 am

Haz1558

I would have absolutely no advice to give on how to extract a DVD from a dead TV.

7:04 am

kje

forceps?

7:05 am

Haz1558

That did come to mind.

7:05 am

Nef

Good morning. I figure any machine that does more than 1 thing at a time (a TV with a DVD player, for instance) is probably smarted than me and will have 1 function fail long before that machine gets old

7:05 am

kje

this grid is amazingly fast

7:06 am

Haz1558

Good morning Nef.

7:07 am

Nef

Morning Haz. And kje. I would suggest forceps too

7:18 am

ey7 - what you see right before fainting

7:18 am

Haz1558

ey7 - the seeing organ plus a word that can either mean a stain, or to see something from a distance.

7:18 am

7:18 am

LynnNate08

ey 7/40?

7:18 am

kje

LOL jean

7:19 am

Haz1558

Is there an actual term for that? The closest I've come to ever fainting is seeing flashing things and hearing weird noises in my ears.

7:19 am

LynnNate08

ty

7:20 am

kje

actual term for fainting? syncope

7:20 am

LynnNate08

ty

7:20 am

Haz1558

No, actual term for what you see before you faint - is it ey7?

7:20 am

kje

no - no official term

7:21 am

kje

there is a term for the blackness that comes over your eyes in certain stroke situations - amarosis fugax

7:21 am

rolin

7:24 am

Haz1558

So the cartoonists don't have it so far wrong.

7:25 am

kje

nope

7:25 am

kje

i got up, skied down the slope, and kept seeing sp5s for at least 10-15 minutes... quite exciting

7:26 am

Haz1558

That probably wasn't what you would have advised anybody else to do after fainting, was it?

7:27 am

kje

sure, why not - most fainting is actually benign

7:27 am

kje

unless you hurt yourself when falling

7:27 am

Haz1558

But the blow to the head?

7:28 am

kje

no damage... and was fine in a few minutes... after that, it is just watching for signs of concusion

7:29 am

kje

nausea, vomiting, neuro deficits

7:29 am

Haz1558

Fair enough.

7:30 am

LynnNate08

po 6/24 please?

7:30 am

kje

and it was the bunny slope - could hardly have them come and carry me off! LOLOL

Haz1558

Good afternoon FM. It's a nice grid, a few surprises along the way.

9:46 am

Haz1558

ey8 - what you see with plus what you might put in them to medicate or soothe.

9:46 am

FMitch

hmm OK I dive in and let you know!

9:46 am

Haz1558

Umbrella up ready for the splash.

9:47 am

THank you again

9:52 am

Atalante

*bellyflops*

9:52 am

Haz1558

That's okay.

9:52 am

Haz1558

Posture, Ata, posture!

9:52 am

Boobear

Hi Haz and FMitch and Ata

9:52 am

Vicuna

Hellloooooooo!

9:52 am

Haz1558

Hello Boobear.

9:53 am

Atalante

*groans* I've been packing!

9:53 am

Boobear

hey Vicuna

9:53 am

Haz1558

And Vicuna! Hello to you as well.

9:53 am

Vicuna

How is everyone today?

9:53 am

Haz1558

Ooooh, packing! The debate, what to take, what to leave, how heavy is the case, how many liquids can I have.

9:54 am

Haz1558

I'm very well, Vi, and all the better for seeing you.

9:54 am

Haz1558

How have you been? And have the children accomplished major triumphs lately?

9:54 am

Vicuna

*blushes* Why thank you. It's lovely to see you, too. Daughter all safely graduated, I see?

9:54 am

FMitch

ATta & Vi!!!!

9:55 am

Vicuna

Indeed, their TOG genius knows no bounds, of course.

9:55 am

Haz1558

Daughter is indeed safely graduated.

9:56 am

Haz1558

No limits to genius, Ata can attest to that.

9:56 am

Boobear

Congratulations to your daughter Haz

9:56 am

Haz1558

Thank you Boo. She worked really hard and deserved to do well.

9:57 am

Vicuna

And now that the session of swimming lessons is over, I am no longer freezing them blue on a daily basis. (The cold only serves to stimulate their prodigious brains all the more, of course.)

9:57 am

Haz1558

Well, it's well know that fish is brain food, so any kind of activity which attunes them to fishiness can only be good. You are a wise mother.

9:58 am

Haz1558

*well known

9:58 am

Atalante

My cat is insane

9:58 am

Vicuna

Thank you, thank you. =D

9:58 am

Vicuna

Is this news, Ata?

9:58 am

Atalante

not really ....

9:58 am

Haz1558

Should you not attempt to make them continue with swimming lessons? You'd hate for any prodigious brain cells to atrophy from disuse.

9:59 am

Vicuna

In what ways has the insanity been manifested this time?

9:59 am

Haz1558

Has she eaten something she shouldn't have?

9:59 am

Haz1558

Has she taken to going up the chimney?

9:59 am

Atalante

she's just leaping around the room, howling

10:00 am

wildcat17

she knows you're leaving her

10:00 am

FMitch

you are leaving her, she knows it!

10:00 am

Haz1558

And have you rung the vet? People should always ring the vet at the first sign of anything different.

10:01 am

Vicuna

Well, for the next 3 weeks they're taking other fun classes that are at the same time as the swimming, so they can't do both. TOG-boy is doing "kitchen science" and TOG-girl is doing some dance thing. I trust those will be stimulating in some way or other. And they leave me with time at home alone, which I find immensely stimulating.

10:01 am

Haz1558

Could Hobbit have accidentally chewed her tail?

10:01 am

Vicuna

Our cat does that a lot. I never realized it was insanity - i always thought it was normal.

10:02 am

Haz1558

Kitchen science, you say? Is that what we used to call cooking?

10:02 am

Haz1558

You should ring the vet and hold Sily to the phone so that they can hear her howling.

10:02 am

wildcat17

hobbit wouldn't do that

10:02 am

Vicuna

(Actually, when Nightshade leaps around the room howling she usually does so in conjunction with her ongoing attempts to eliminate all potential energy from the room.)

10:02 am

Haz1558

It'll be the key to diagnosis.

10:03 am

FMitch

Hobbit cound't chew her tail it is just too waggy

10:03 am

Vicuna

Kitchen science means little experiments using kitchen-type ingredients, such as baking soda and vinegar. But yesterday they did make their own bread and butter.

10:03 am

Atalante

I have the Fan on. This is insufferable for Sily

10:04 am

Vicuna

She's not a fan fan then, i guess.

10:04 am

Haz1558

Kitchen science sounds good. I don't know if I'd like to sample baking soda and vinegar.

10:05 am

Atalante

noooo it encourages wind-up-tail-ness

10:05 am

Vicuna

You don't eat it, silly. You watch it foam up like a volcano. Much excitement.

10:05 am

Atalante

hobbit couldn't *reach* her tail!

10:05 am

Boobear

clue for po6 pls

10:06 am

Haz1558

I know, but where's the fun in making something if you can't eat it afterwards? Or maybe small boys just like the drama of it all.

10:06 am

Haz1558

po6 - what's left after you smoke weed.

10:06 am

Boobear

ty

10:06 am

Vicuna

*sternly* Not all fun is edible, Haz.

10:07 am

rururocks

a passed out Michael phelps?

10:07 am

Haz1558

Well, it should be. If I were a benevolent dictator, I'd decree that all fun should have an element of edibility.

10:07 am

Haz1558

Who is this Michael Phelps you're so unfond of, ruru?

10:08 am

Vicuna

I like the way you think... But it sounds as if it might be just the teensiest bit dangerous.

10:08 am

Haz1558

I laugh at danger.

10:08 am

Haz1558

And then flee.

10:08 am

Vicuna

You laugh at it, and then you take a lick.

10:09 am

Vicuna

Michael Phelps just won a boatload of gold medals at the last Olympics, and has confessed to smoking pot at some time or another.

10:09 am

rururocks

I don't dislike him Haz....

10:09 am

Haz1558

Ah! Now I understand.

10:09 am

Atalante

because we all really really care

10:10 am

rururocks

I just like taking potshots at him..lol

10:10 am

EvaNadine

*passes by the chog to see that, apparently, haz has been living beneath a rock*

10:10 am

Vicuna

(potshots. get it? Potshots?)

10:10 am

Haz1558

It's a bit like us with Jordan/Katie Price. Except that we really really dislike her.

10:10 am

Atalante

Northern Ireland's nearly under a rock

10:10 am

Vicuna

It was one of her experiments in edible spelunking, EvaN!

10:10 am

Haz1558

And greetings and salutations to you, Evan!

10:11 am

Haz1558

Listen, they've discovered that Ballymena is sitting on top of geothermal springs or something. Soon we're going to be producing enough power for the world.

10:11 am

Vicuna

Cool!

10:11 am

Haz1558

Okay, maybe that's a tad exaggerated but even so - exciting stuff!

10:12 am

Atalante

will LIam Neeson open them?

10:13 am

Haz1558

Ballymena Times quotes 'Ballymena is lieterally sitting on a hot bed of energy and plans are firmly in the pieline to tapi it, making ours the first town in Ireland to harness deep geothermal energy.

10:13 am

Haz1558

*literally

10:13 am

Atalante

literally! goodness me!

10:13 am

Haz1558

Liam Neeson may well apply to be the first to switch on or drill or whatever they're going to do.

10:15 am

Haz1558

I can tell that you're all deeply impressed and jealous. Who needs kitchen science when you've got boiling water on tap from 2 miles below you?

10:15 am

Vicuna

I'm jealous!

10:15 am

Vicuna

ANd it's not bad having Liam Neeson on tap, too.

10:15 am

Haz1558

It's only natural.

10:15 am

Atalante

geyser land!

10:16 am

Haz1558

Yes indeed. They'll be talking about hot stuff from Ballymena and they won't just be talking about LIam.

10:16 am

Atalante

if you're really lucky, maybe Ian paisley will stand in for Liam

10:17 am

Vicuna

Ha.

10:17 am

Haz1558

I can't see him drawing the same crowds.

10:18 am

Haz1558

Maybe the travellers will get wind of this and camp out at the drilling site, only moving when they get recompensed...

10:18 am

Atalante

does Ian Paisley Jr live en Ballymena?

10:19 am

Haz1558

No, he lives in Belfast but is around quite a lot for photo opportunities/helping aggrieved people.

10:19 am

Atalante

didn't he get fined / arrested / something last week?

10:20 am

Haz1558

He got fined for refusing to disclose the name of an informant.

10:21 am

Haz1558

It'll hardly ruin him, it was something like Â£5,000.

10:21 am

Atalante

sounds like a good plan. disclosing informants tends to lead to big booms

10:21 am

Vicuna

I think we lost FM. =(

10:21 am

Haz1558

In this case his informant was a prison officer who had given him information regarding a killing in prison of a high profile thug.

10:22 am

Haz1558

FM may be steadfastly working her way through the grid. Such dedication! Such focus!

10:22 am

Atalante

I havent even started :D

10:23 am

Haz1558

No, you've been too busy packing and tormenting cats.

10:23 am

Vicuna

Don't get mixed up and pack the cat and torment the suitcase.

10:23 am

Haz1558

No, because suitcases have feelings too.

10:23 am

mom2han8

help with the 7's please?

10:24 am

mom2han8

I have none!

10:24 am

Atalante

I maanged to pack 4 items of clothing yesterday before .... *quickly changes pic*

10:24 am

Vicuna

Remember those old Samsonite commercials with the gorillas jumping on suitcases? Such dreadful cruelty!

10:24 am

Haz1558

I'm sure they groan when they're fetched down and dusted off. They know there are hard times ahead of being filled and pummelled and flung about and squashed by other suitcases.

10:24 am

Vicuna

to7 - pl yellow gemstone

10:25 am

mom2han8

thanks... that's one down, LOL.

10:25 am

Vicuna

On the other hand, they live to travel.

10:25 am

Haz1558

at7 - plural word for a susceptibility to allergy. (make the at4/6 into an adjective, kind of and plural it)

10:26 am

Vicuna

Alas, how swiftly is my morning flown. Time to fetch the darlings already. Have fun, everyone!

10:26 am

Haz1558

This must be the contradiction they face. To stay at home, unused but safe, or venture forth, used but possibly abused.

10:26 am

Atalante

there. new pic

10:26 am

Haz1558

Fare theee well, Vi! Say hello to the TOGs for us.

10:26 am

mom2han8

don't have the at 4/6.

10:27 am

Haz1558

ey7 - what you look through, plus what makes a dalmatian dog distinctive.

10:27 am

Haz1558

at4/6 - Humpty Dumpty was this in relation to the wall.

10:27 am

Vicuna

(it's at4/5, actually)

10:27 am

Vicuna

ANd now, farewell!

10:27 am

mom2han8

oh, ok... I'll try it... thanks... for the other two!

10:27 am

Haz1558

at4/5 - I beg your pardon, my fingers and figures get themselves into twists all the time.

10:28 am

mom2han8

thanks... got it!

10:28 am

Haz1558

Well done!

10:29 am

mom2han8

anyone want to clue the other z? I have the one that means the letter.

10:29 am

Haz1558

Ata, when do you actually fly off? (We'll say fly off, although we know you're being deported again)

10:30 am

mom2han8

NM... got it, duh!

10:30 am

Atalante

11:05 tomorrow morning. With Sily in my bag

10:30 am

Haz1558

From Heathrow? What time do you need to be at the airport?

10:31 am

Atalante

H'row yep. About 8am

10:32 am

Haz1558

An early start! Are you staying overnight somewhere or just going up in the morning?

10:32 am

Atalante

just going up in the morning, it's about 2 hours from here

10:33 am

Haz1558

And I take it you're excited?

10:33 am

Atalante

I feel so awful. Hobbit hasn't left my bags all day. She is just flopped over them

10:34 am

Atalante

yes and no. yes, obviously, but I hate leaving the mutt

10:34 am

Haz1558

I was wondering how she would be reacting. Do kennels beckon?

10:35 am

Atalante

they do indeed :(

10:36 am

Haz1558

I know you know she'll be fine, but it doesn't really help, does it?

10:36 am

Atalante

no! it's *so* silly

10:37 am

Haz1558

Do you have to take her?

10:38 am

Atalante

no. thank goodness. I thought I would have to, but I've managed to persuade D into doing the deed

10:39 am

Haz1558

That's a relief for you, I'm sure. She will be okay, and doesn't she get out at weekends?

10:39 am

FMitch

phew for that Ata, sorry back again :)

10:39 am

Haz1558

Ah, welcome back FM.

10:40 am

Atalante

I cant bear taking her. It rips my heart to shreds! Don't I sound like MrP? Yes, she'll be fine, and D will pick her up at least 1 weekend

10:41 am

FMitch

Have a good flight Ata and we will miss you but look forward to seeing you in the the time zone!

10:41 am

Atalante

I'll still be on yahoo im and email, if not babble so frequently :D

10:41 am

Haz1558

I've only taken Spangle that once but I was as hard-hearted as can be and didn't look as she was led away.

10:42 am

Atalante

oh yes. you simply can't look or else you can't deal with it at all!

10:42 am

Haz1558

Oh yes. does it mean that you'll be on babble later than usual? You are still going to babble a bit, aren't you?

10:43 am

Atalante

this kind of time is probably the most likely, or during our night

10:44 am

Haz1558

That's good. It would be difficult to store up six weeks worth of babble news for you.

10:44 am

FMitch

Ata promised that she would be babbleing at some point - so I her hold her to that!

10:44 am

Haz1558

I wish it would dry up a bit outside. We had really heavy rain a while ago and it's still wet underfoot. Or maybe the geothermal springs have sprung a leak, what do you think?

10:44 am

Atalante

Walter just had a tantrum during his hour of home-schooling

10:45 am

Haz1558

Well done, FM, on extracting that promise.

10:45 am

Haz1558

Walter is being home-schooled? When did that start?

10:45 am

Atalante

just during the summer. so he's ready to go up a grade or something in the autumn

10:46 am

Haz1558

He just needs to eat fish or have lots of swimming lessons.

10:46 am

Haz1558

Vicuna's twins are thriving on their fish/swimming quota.

10:47 am

Atalante

He cut his shape in half and sulked

10:47 am

FMitch

I have to be off, Ata dear, safe flight and see you on the other side! So good to see you on Saturday :)!!
Haz look forward to catching up with you in our time zone :))

10:47 am

Haz1558

Sulked because he didn't mean to?

10:48 am

Atalante

bye dear! have you been enjoying your cherries?

10:48 am

Atalante

sulked just because, I think

10:48 am

Haz1558

Will do, FM.

10:48 am

Atalante

oh no - cos MG told him he'd cut his shape in 2, and walter denied it and sulked

10:48 am

Haz1558

Sulking is fun for a while but it gets a bit boring after a while.

10:49 am

Haz1558

You're making me laugh to the point of Spangle being disturbed.

10:50 am

Atalante

loooool poor spangle

10:50 am

Haz1558

I just love the idea of Walter denying what he had done.

10:51 am

Atalante

yes!

10:52 am

Haz1558

Chlldren throw tantrums over the strangest things. Our girls used to stage elaborate games and then one would find one tiny imperfection, call the whole thing off and end up with both howling in frustration.

10:53 am

Haz1558

An imaginary dinner party with imaginary guests once had to be abandoned because of a missing toy fork.

10:54 am

Haz1558

No amount of pleading could get that dinner party back on track. Not even changing the menu.

10:54 am

Atalante

oh yes. everything can be perfect and then .......

10:55 am

Haz1558

DISASTER!

10:56 am

Atalante

complete and UTTER disaster! terminal disaster

10:56 am

Haz1558

No happiness ever again.

10:56 am

Haz1558

Must investigate Spangle barking. Back later!

4:31 pm

gapeach

Well, the longhaired chichuaua( I know that is spelled wrong" was "Mistress of the Manor...so she let him right off that it was just that way. And the Westie, his name was Phil (after Phil Collins) was my daughters dog....but when she moved north I wouldn't let her take him....he would have been alone all day....and I just loved him too.

4:32 pm

A friend sent me a quote from a 1904 Hospital board meeting describiong what student nurses needed to bring for nursing training today. It's not nearly as cute, but it is good!

9:05 pm

I've just come back off holiday and I had he5/14 of washing to do and now a he4.6 of ironing.

Today's theme is your favorite vacation sp4/5 Jacula

9:07 pm

redturtlehead

Well, I never got changed since movie posters, so I do apologize for Jesus Christ Superstar.

9:07 pm

Jacula

LOL, Min. I'd post a pic of the Maldives, but I haven't been there... yet.

9:08 pm

Nef

"The 1904 N___ Hospital Annual Report included these instructions for nursing students: â€œWhen coming to the Hospital they shall bring with them the following articles: Three wash dresses, six large white aprons, a supply of plain underclothing, two bags for soiled clothes, one pair of scissors, a pin ball, napkin ring and a time piece is almost indispensable. Nurses are required to wear noiseless shoes. After acceptance, the Training School uniform is worn while on duty. Material for dresses will be sold at cost price.â€

9:08 pm

Jacula

Well, the pic of my old dog was taken in North Wales and I do feel hiraeth if I'm away from there for too long.

9:09 pm

redturtlehead

A napkin ring was indespensible?

9:09 pm

Jacula

Anapkin ring?? And as for the plain underwear, who was going to see it?

9:09 pm

Jacula

Also, why a pinball?

9:10 pm

Nef

kind of interesting isn't it? I wondered about the "pin ball" at first too; but on re-reading it I think it meant it was for pins

9:10 pm

Jacula

I assume to plain underwear was to put the 'sex-crazed' mal medical students off?

9:10 pm

redturtlehead

Oh, like a pin cushion.

9:10 pm

Jacula

Ah, a pin cushion?

9:11 pm

Nef

when you look at those old pictures of nurses; you wouldn't ever think that THEY would have worn anything BUT plain underwear!

9:12 pm

redturtlehead

these days we all seem to be showing off all our unplain panties...

9:12 pm

Nef

well, the "young" ones anyway,red.

9:13 pm

redturtlehead

indeed, sometimes I wonder how the new scrubs are even practical...

9:14 pm

Nef

back in the old days (when I was a student nurse); we had dresses that the buttons were removeable for washing. There were button holes on both sides of the front of the dress and the buttons were held on by what looked like mini short bobby pins.

9:15 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

(looks up, sees underwear chat, goes back to book)

9:15 pm

redturtlehead

Ok, sowe were never practical.

9:15 pm

Nef

and we had an "Alice in Wonderland" type of white apron that went on over the top

9:15 pm

redturtlehead

BDG, it is historical Underwear.

9:15 pm

redturtlehead

Nef, you are kidding.

9:16 pm

redturtlehead

I have never even worn the proverbial nursing cap.

9:16 pm

Jacula

I remember my Mum removing Dad's shirt buttons before putting shirts through the mangle/wringer. This was after rubber buttons went out of fashion and plastic ones came in. Imagine that, having to sew all the buttons on shirts after every wash!

9:17 pm

redturtlehead

This is all so insane, I think I would have just sort of washed them, buttons on.

9:17 pm

redturtlehead

and had a lot of busted up buttons.

9:17 pm

Trifioso

jac, a lot of dry cleaners still remove the buttons and reattach them for each wash. they have too - the chemical melt the buttons

9:17 pm

Nef

nope. red, our uniforms were "cleaning lady blue button up the full front" dresses withthe big white starched Alice in wonderland aprons. The aprons buttoned at the waist in back and our bandage sizzors were tucked through that back

9:18 pm

Jacula

Red - Mum did in the end. If we heard the occasional 'crack', she'd just say, 'Oops!' and sew a new one on.

9:18 pm

Trifioso

lol - I am wearing my dad's old scrub top right now!

9:19 pm

Nef

she'd take off and resew buttons each time? WOW. I'm impressed! Most of the removable buttons had these little metal button pins in them

9:19 pm

redturtlehead

wow....

9:19 pm

Jacula

Trif - if it's your job to be a button sewer-onner (if there is such a word) fair enough. But, for the average busy mother and housewife, that's a bridge too far.

9:20 pm

Nef

I totally agree, Jac

9:20 pm

Jacula

I remember those metal pins, Nef. But in my grandfathers' shirts, not my dads - apart from his army stuff.

9:20 pm

Trifioso

I think there are women who do just that! mind you, *I* don't do dry cleaning at home, just regular wash!

9:22 pm

Nef

well, our nursing caps were fairly large; they were the kind often seen in old movies and 1960's TV shows

9:23 pm

Jacula

If the Stepford Wives want to sew buttons on, let them. I won't be joining them 'cos I'll probably be gardening, Babbling or writing a book.

9:23 pm

torgone

Isn't "dry cleaning" when you scratch something off with your fingernail?

9:23 pm

redturtlehead

wow, no cap. i never got one.

9:23 pm

Trifioso

lol - just about tor!

9:24 pm

Jacula

I have a 'sewing session' after every ironing session. Anythings that needs repairing gets done. Then there are the impromptu sewing sessions when daughter has a dress strap/zip emergency and such like.

9:24 pm

Jacula

Torg - LOL! re the drycleaning.

9:25 pm

Nef

One of my Uncles used to tease his wife that she wore his clothes out by ironing them so much. She would iron sheets and pajamas even; but he did get her to stop ironing his underwear shortly after they were married

9:25 pm

Jacula

How did he do that, Nef?

9:26 pm

Trifioso

yes,my MIL was like that - ironed EVERYTHING even tee shirts and thelike

9:26 pm

Nef

to me (now at this point of my life) I'd throw something out rather than iron it. I do not like to iron anymore

9:26 pm

Jacula

Incidentally, it's the washing process that makes clothes thin and go into holes. Especially the harsh modern detergents.

9:26 pm

Trifioso

i actually don't mind it - you do get a nice sense of accomplishemnt

9:27 pm

Nef

she was ironing his undershorts and used starch on them too. He just let her *know* in no uncertain terms he didn't want his "tighty-whiteys" sironed OR startched

9:28 pm

Trifioso

harsher detergents now?? wow, I am surprised. I guess I always imagine all the lye, and borax and bluing I used to hear my grammy speak of would have been way harsher, but maybe not.

9:28 pm

Jacula

I iron teeshirts, trousers, jeans, knicker gussets if they need it (for comfort!) I also iron blouses, shirts, skirts and a lot of other things, but not towels, tea towels, duvet covers, sheets etc.

9:29 pm

Jacula

Trif - have you ever read the list of chemicals in modern washing liquids?

9:29 pm

Trifioso

i iron tablecloths and napkins, but NOT sheets or tea towels

9:29 pm

torgone

The fabrics were weaker ..

9:29 pm

Trifioso

I guess not jac. bummer

9:30 pm

Nef

I just hang everything before they wrinkle! :-D

9:30 pm

Jacula

Torg's right there.

9:30 pm

Jacula

Cotton is the thing that usually develops pin holes with today's wash liquids.

9:30 pm

Nef

there are so many additives in a scoop of detergent it's amazing to me.

9:31 pm

Trifioso

I need to get a new washing line. want one of those spinning ones, I think Can't decide whether to go with the kind where the lines are parallel, or the kind shaped like an umbrella, with concentric circles

9:31 pm

Jacula

Nef - if you have the space to hang everything for a family of 4 or 5, you're lucky.

9:32 pm

Jacula

My rotary airer (spinning washing line) is and upside down umbrella with 4 sides.

9:32 pm

Nef

I remember making soap as a kid; then my Aunt and Grandma would shave off a piece of soap for flakes. It didn't take a whole lot and they'd say that if there were suds; you were using too much

9:32 pm

Jacula

Nothing drys washing like a good straight old-fashioned line though!

9:33 pm

Nef

I agree withyou on the straight lines, Jac. I liked them better than the umbrella shaped one I have now

9:34 pm

Jacula

If you use a rotary airer, peg stuff onto every other line on each side. Dries stuff quicker.

9:34 pm

Jacula

Ah grating soap. I remember that, and then came LUX Flakes...

9:34 pm

Nef

but doesn't handle nearly enough stuff that way

9:35 pm

Jacula

No, Nef, but when the outside stuff dries, you just move stuff around.

9:35 pm

Nef

LUX flakes? Is that a British brand?

9:36 pm

Jacula

I guess it is if you don't know it, Nef.

9:37 pm

Nef

I find that the umbrella shaped lines take longer and don't handle as much laundry as the straight lines

9:37 pm

Jacula

Apparently, LUX originated in Australia.

9:37 pm

Trifioso

hmmm. I think maybe the straight one would work faster. I had to get five trees taken down this fall, and thus lost my clothesline!

9:39 pm

Nef

Trifi, if you do hang clothes, get an old-fashione straight line pole and use that. I'm really not a fan of this umbrella one at all

9:39 pm

Trifioso

seriously? I loved the one my MIL had in ireland.

9:39 pm

Jacula

I've had a straight clothes line ready to go back up when I have 3 posts to hang it from for about 2 years now. That's what I used to do when I first moved here - concrete line post to tree to other concrete post. The washing dried brilliantly.

9:40 pm

Trifioso

my laundry is on the second floor, and sometimes I toy with the idea of setting up a line like you see in old new york - out the window, across the driveway, and attached to a tree. two stories up. what a hoot that would be!

9:41 pm

Nef

Your MIL had an umbrella one? Did You use it much; or was it the facination of something different

9:41 pm

Trifioso

no, I used it all the time. seemed quite utilitarian, and didn't use up as much lawn space

9:41 pm

Nef

Trifi; that would be wonderful to see!

9:41 pm

jmcnrick

hi all

9:42 pm

Trifioso

hi jmc!

9:42 pm

Nef

hi jmc!

9:42 pm

jmcnrick

that is one of the things I miss about my husband -- he did all the laundry.

9:42 pm

Jacula

Unfortunately, both line posts were casualties of ex-hubs garden redesigning (where the path went) and never got rebuilt. The tree is still there but is almost dead. Beloved (new partner) wants to chop it down, but I think pollarding (taking the top off) would do the trick to rejuvenate it. And he still hasn't put me 2 new line posts up.

9:42 pm

Trifioso

If I could do it out of the back of the house, I might actually do it, but out the front of the house? maybe not

9:42 pm

jmcnrick

and I told him if he wanted ironed shirts he had to do them during football games

9:42 pm

Nef

LOL! I let my DH cook; but he is NOT allowed to wash clothes or do laundry!@

9:43 pm

jmcnrick

my mil gave me lecture about using cold water to wash and I told her to tell her son ans she nearly fainted

9:43 pm

Trifioso

lol jmc - I sort of made a point of ahem, "never" getting his shirts right --eventually he resigned himself to taking them to the cleaners. I did all the other stuff, just not his shirts

9:43 pm

Minveryork

Hi jmcnrick! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

I never iron anything. If it is wrinkled I don't really care

9:44 pm

I HATE ironing shirts, though, I have to admit that after years of doing so, it doesn't take a minute to do.

9:44 pm

Jac; I hear you loud and clear. I need the fun here some nights

9:59 pm

Jacula

French for 'left' (rather than right), jmc.

9:59 pm

Nef

sorry jmc. I don't have it

9:59 pm

10:00 pm

Jacula

EEk - actually,I think it's right. Gauche is left.

10:00 pm

Jacula

Isn't it?

10:00 pm

jmcnrick

well no matter I got the right word

10:00 pm

jmcnrick

but dereche is right in spanish

10:00 pm

Jacula

You did.

10:01 pm

Jacula

It's a long time since I was in school doing French.

10:01 pm

Trifioso

I think I am going to get the list....this is taking me forever

10:02 pm

jmcnrick

my french teacher passed me if I promised never to take french again

10:02 pm

Jacula

ey8 = what you put into your seeing orbs wen they need soothing.

10:02 pm

Trifioso

that is so mean, jmc!!!

10:02 pm

Jacula

LOL, jmc.

10:03 pm

Jacula

My stepdaughter's German teacher is still learning and 'step' is ahead of her and so the teacher checks with her when she says something. How mad is that?

10:03 pm

jmcnrick

the strange thing is that the same thing happened to my brother at a different school

10:04 pm

Jacula

jmc - you and your bro must have either a very bad grasp or very bad accents.

10:04 pm

Trifioso

how is your stepdaughter settling in, jac?

10:05 pm

jmcnrick

no my brother had a fairly good command of french -- I just think the teachers were snobs about the Texas accented french

10:05 pm

jmcnrick

I had a fairly limited grasp I confess

10:06 pm

Jacula

As well as can be expected, Trif. She loves the school, though she was asleep beside the sports ground during sports day earlier. I heard the whole commentary from in our garden. 'Your house won!' said I when she got home. 'Did they?' she said. Then,'How do you know that?'

10:06 pm

Jacula

LOL

10:07 pm

jmcnrick

I keep tryin mosh in these grids Do4 enable ever update?

10:07 pm

Trifioso

I am so glad she is doing well. you are such a special person, giving her a chance to have a better life

10:08 pm

Jacula

Well, jmc, the vowel sounds are important when speaking any language. You have to become an actor when speaking in another tongue, even if it's just a town's accent away from you.

10:08 pm

Jacula

You have to step out of yourself and become a character or personality in the other accent or language.

10:08 pm

jmcnrick

well I am content with my spanish

10:09 pm

Jacula

jmc - 'Enable' doesn't accept thewword 'mosh'. LOL

10:09 pm

Jacula

Enable has obviously never attended a rock festival.

10:09 pm

jmcnrick

I know but I think mosh is a word of today!

10:10 pm

Trifioso

nudge for the at 7, 32 please?

10:10 pm

jmcnrick

add a pastry to at 4

10:10 pm

Jacula

10:12 pm

Jacula

at + vowel + pastry-topped eats.

10:13 pm

Trifioso

thank you! :)

10:13 pm

Jacula

ey7/40 = seeing orbs + a cooking pan.

10:14 pm

Jacula

y/w Trif.

10:14 pm

Jacula

po8/50 = plural of the po6/24 plant food.

10:15 pm

Jacula

sa6/24 = sa + what you do to get a drink into a glass from a bottle.

10:16 pm

Jacula

Well, that's enough unasked for clues.

10:16 pm

Jacula

I was just guessing what might not have been found.

10:22 pm

jmcnrick

oops so I was not PC when I said my Mother had gone nuts?

10:23 pm

Jacula

I think peopl have been taught to be far too sensitive now. Our sensibilities are far more protected than our bodies, lives, homes, streets....

10:23 pm

Jacula

I don't give a sh*t about being PC.

10:24 pm

DR1965

jmcnrick

10:25 pm

ShadowHyrst

agreed Jacula; 'rights' are assumed and protected, when in reality, its just life...and I'm nowhere near being PC because I still call the postman, postman, and and spoksman, spokesman, regardles of male/female...but I still open the doors for ladies and say thankyou...

10:25 pm

DR1965

I watched the moon landing in an inner city setting, in Louisville. A bunch of the folks watching stood up and booed when Armstrong made his "one small step" comment. The space program was taking funds away from other programs that could have repaired the inner cities after the riots, etc.

11:45 pm

harpjane

Then LAST year, it came almost full circle as I played in an orchestra that did a program narrated by Buzz Aldrin!
