Andree
I have no recollection of a smaller one, which doesn't mean much, my memory is not what it used to be
2:51 am
Atalante
it's definitely near the limit, drG cuts all grids smaller than a certain size. I actually thought the limit was 35, but obviously not!
2:53 am
Andree
at least i got to finish which i have not had much time for lately

3:02 am
FMitch
lol have you knotted yourself into a corner?
Hi ruby
3:02 am
rubyfoo
I guess I just don't get it!
3:03 am
FMitch
The little grids are usually tricksy.
3:03 am
Atalante
isn't even knotwork! I can deal with that. this was meant to be a nice little picture of davros. now it's a huge panoramic picture of the Torchwood hub - including the rift generator - with Davros and 4 Daleks
3:04 am
FMitch
Sounds great tho.
3:04 am
Atalante
it might be, if I can remember how to draw and colour realistically lol
3:05 am
Atalante
tis a long long time since I've done a big realistic-style pic
3:05 am
FMitch
well then it's good practice for you :)
3:06 am
Atalante
exactly - but I wanted a little, easy practice, not MONSTER PICTURE
3:07 am
Atalante
but I did learn a lot about Art Deco tube stations on the way
3:08 am
FMitch
Keep at it. HAve you been out yet today? V frosty here but lovely and bright.
3:08 am
Atalante
ditto here, and not yet. Hobbit is still fast asleep upstairs with D
3:09 am
Atalante
are shops open today? it's a bank holiday, isn't it?
3:09 am
FMitch
Sensible Hobbit. I went into the garden briefly to put some food out for the birds but that is it so far.
3:10 am
FMitch
Yes it is B holiday - I had totally forgotten, Supermarkets will be open, not sure about others.
3:11 am
Atalante
for the first time, I feel like going shopping, and the shops are maybe shut. typical!
3:12 am
FMitch
go anyway and explore, there are bound to be some and lots of sales on now.
3:13 am
Atalante
I need dog food. These things are important!
3:13 am
FMitch
you don't buy it from the supermarket do you?
3:14 am
Atalante
doggy supermarket
3:14 am
FMitch
look on their website to see the opening times then.
3:15 am
Atalante

Who stole all the vowels?

Let's form a posse and round them up.
3:54 am
Soodle
Just logged in - and the first word to hop out at me was ti4/6!! Most appropriate!
3:55 am
Merk
I don't want to sound like a cy 5, but can this actually be called a true grid? Is it our shortest ever? ....
3:55 am
Merk
I was ready to cry in my hot chocolate as I sit here all alone and forlorn, but Soodlebum just appeared. Welcome.
3:56 am
Soodle
Hi Merc - please don't water down your hot choclit! Salty tears would ruin the flavour!!
3:56 am
MissOmnibus
7 to go.... ergh and to work i have to head
3:56 am
Merk
and I have fireworks! I was just hanging around to tell someone. It took me less than twenty minutes and I could have finished faster if I hadn't been chatting with myself here.
3:57 am
MissOmnibus
grats Merk <3<3
3:57 am
Soodle
Woot Woot Merk. Fireworks is fireworks!!
3:57 am
Merk
Yes, and it would also make it cold chocolate. Well, I'm leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again ... here or in the states. So babble away for the next six weeks and I'll see y'all in February. This was a tad disappointing for my final grid in awhile.
3:58 am
Soodle
Oh Merk - wherever you are going, don't they have internet?
3:59 am
Merk
China ... yes, they do, but either I'm too busy or they are censoring it when I'm not busy.
3:59 am
Soodle
Well, you have a good trip, and we will keep the grids warm for your return!

Hi Nono. Yes, the grid is crowded with consonants, what a shame.

according to lickety it is the smallest grid ever
5:43 am

Ouch, Jean. That used to bother me a lot.

Hi Scrab. ? For all - when I point my curser on a flag in someone's icon at work, I get their country. It doesn't do that for me at home. Wonder why....?
5:49 am
EspritdJean
it's the government
5:49 am
Scrabbler
German has some really cool, very long compound words. I studied German from 7th grade - 1 yr in college.
5:49 am
Eva
You mean you just point....you don't have to click on it?
5:49 am
NonoNanette
could be the settings on your computer Jean?
5:49 am
Scrabbler
I never tried that before, Mich. It works here.
5:50 am
EspritdJean
not me Nan, that was Michnick
5:50 am

Hi Anne
5:50 am
Eva
I have to click
5:50 am
Eva
Actually I have to click on the person symbol and pull the whole profile up.
5:51 am
bojazz
don't work here - the flag thing, that is
5:52 am
Eva
now how am I going to get my brain warmed up?
5:52 am
NonoNanette
cy5 maybe a person with a nasty attitude
5:52 am
NonoNanette
FIREWORKS here!
5:53 am
Michnick
No Eva, this is besides bringing up the profile. At my office I don't have to click, just point but at home - nothing brings up countries. Odd.
5:54 am
bojazz
thanx Nono
5:54 am
Eva
It's the difference between the office gremlins and the home gremlins. I mean you really didn't buy all of this nonsese about microchips and servers, did you?
5:55 am
Scrabbler
Yippee Nono!
5:55 am
bojazz
you using the exact same software Eva
5:56 am
Michnick
Gosh, you must be right Eva. My home gremlins are the most mischiveous little demons.
5:56 am
Scrabbler
Gremlins, that's it. They do cause so much trouble, don't they?
5:56 am
Eva
and dybbuks. even worse
5:56 am
Michnick
I wouldn't mind so much if they'd only straighten up my desk when I go to bed.
5:56 am
bojazz
yes - have them in my head
5:56 am
Michnick
Dybbuks, make the mess on my desk in the first place.
5:57 am
NonoNanette
guess I'll go do sudoku puzzle maybe that will be a bit more challenging today
5:57 am
NonoNanette
happy babbling everyone
5:58 am
Eva
I had a virus for two months which really had me thinking about exorcism of dybbuks. How deos one tempt a dybbuk out of the body anyway? Place some great cheesecake across the room?
6:00 am
Michnick
No, Eva, they don't like dairy. A good steak might do it.
6:00 am
Eva
anyone need any clues before I dematerialize?
6:00 am
Eva
with onion rings and fries I would guess
6:01 am
Michnick
Yeh, but if it doesn't work, the onion rings might give you heartburn!

argh how frustrating! Do you have time on your hands though, while working there? Sounds pretty intense.
6:07 am

Concord, nc...just up the road from Charlotte
6:07 am

think of the outside of the pie, Scrabs
6:07 am

I do have time, usually, as the "no show" rate is high.
6:07 am

or the top of a closed in pie
6:07 am
Eva
We have been longing for the desert. Maybe Arizona or New Mexico.
6:08 am

The youth orchestra insisted in black skirts - one knee length for daytime concerts and one full length for evening concerts - buying skirts that you can sit in with a tuba (or a cello) between your legs is impossible. I adapated skirt patterns, and ended up handing them out to the mothers of all the cellists and all the female bass viol players. They looked like a team!
10:07 am

you should patent the pattern and sell it online

4:35 pm
Nancy Boy
It was interesting...bit contrived (I thought) and touchy-feely but lots of explosions and fires to keep my generation interested. The 3D might have been a waste though..
4:35 pm
Nancy Boy
Ooh fireworks by accident. Made me jump!
4:35 pm

as long as there are explosions! I won't fall asleep, then, at least

Nancy Boy

4:38 pm
Nancy Boy
well that's what I thought, Ata! I'm pretty bad with 3D but the focus in Avatar was about creating depth of image more than making stuff jump out at you and having the audience flinch back...which I appreciated!
4:39 pm
Atalante
oh phew. maybe I can deal with that
4:40 pm
Nancy Boy
yes, it's a lot more comfortable than expected :)

6:02 pm
Pinikula
perhaps she might have preferred a touch of lace on the edge?
6:02 pm
Pinikula
well, welcome back, welki...glad you could join us!
6:02 pm

the cone of shame!!! i know some men who should wear one ... the symbolism of not being able to reach would be profound

Nancy Boy
put down those tissues ladies, I will rip them in half in the blink of an eye
6:03 pm
Pinikula
ROFL...NB * hiding needed tissues *
6:03 pm

6:05 pm
Nancy Boy
vogue, Welki?!
6:05 pm
welki
<-- is an old hag. you probably don't recall voguing.
6:06 pm
Pinikula
...I'd fear that every arm movement would be like dipping a wing to change direction!
6:06 pm
Pinikula
Isn't "vogue" what Madonna did in that one song?
6:06 pm
welki
yep, there ya go .... ru paul, going vogue (a spoof on palin's going rogue)

6:08 pm
Nancy Boy
LOL. Well if it's anything to do with a) fashion or b) posing, then yes. I am able to do that whilst flying. When I'm old I'm going to take very great care to die in a fetching pose.

6:09 pm
redturtlehead
I was sure after yesterdays 60ish grid, we would have a regular one, but this! showed up instead.
6:10 pm
welki
the mincing overdone walk that models do down a runway
6:10 pm
Pinikula
too funny, welki...and I hate that s/he looks better that a lot of women!
6:10 pm
Pinikula
welki...I think you're referring to CATWALK
6:10 pm
welki
he's too sexy for his dress, too sexy for his hair, too sexy
6:10 pm

6:11 pm
Pinikula
CAKEWALK Def = a promenade or march, of black American origin, in which the couples with the most intricate or eccentric steps received cakes as prizes.
6:12 pm
Atalante
how odd!
6:12 pm
Pinikula
so maybe you're, in fact right, welki...just never heard it associated with modeling
6:12 pm
SamanthaJoy
Grah! I'm missing one six letter C word. I would hate to have to resort to Lickety for a 30-word grid!

6:13 pm
Pinikula
* thinking * would a grid with 'pictures' do us any good?
6:13 pm
welki
or leave hairballs
6:13 pm
Nancy Boy
actually, no, for me it's cats. They are extra calories I -won't- be tempted by...I own some exceptionally tight trousers that require legs to have the approximate dimensions of lollipop sticks :)
6:14 pm
SamanthaJoy
oh, before I go: The Flying Attack Squirrel of Doom is a brilliant story, thanks for linking to it. And i'm outta here. *poof*
6:14 pm
Nancy Boy
and even if they did, Ata, that would satisfy both my cravings at once!
6:14 pm
welki
my legs have the approximate dimensions of redwood trees
6:14 pm
Pinikula
I'm with welki!
6:14 pm

Pinikula
You're welcome, Sam!

That is why thispuzzle is small because of lack of vowels.
