herinfernallady

I was told today that the only Greys that can be walked about sans muzzle are from GAP

1:36 am

flosey

yes, thanks Pav

1:36 am

lynxxx

True - although you can take your grey there and have it assessed (takes a week). If OK can then go without

1:36 am

herinfernallady

ANd please if you ever decide to donate to the RSPCA Dont

1:37 am

lynxxx

why?

1:38 am

herinfernallady

Because they are nothing but murdering scum. You know the puppy farm in Geelong?

1:38 am

lynxxx

no

1:38 am

herinfernallady

Um did you see in the papers at all about the Puppy farm in Geelong area?

1:39 am

lynxxx

no - I'll google it

1:40 am

flosey

fireworks

1:40 am

PAV3

any more help needed?...

1:40 am

PAV3

lynxxx

Congrats Flosey

1:43 am

herinfernallady

Ok the RSPCA refused to take all the dogs of them on the spot, refuse to fine them and then all of sudden all dogs gone. Now they are the ''happy family'' snaps in the paper.

1:45 am

lynxxx

That sounds peculiar

1:45 am

herinfernallady

No not really they don't give a shit (excuse me) I found out with a heavy heart were the dogs went today

1:48 am

lynxxx

Seems like Animal Liberation raised the alarm last September but RSPCA found no breaches/ animal cruelty when they went there end Feb

1:49 am

lynxxx

Maybe the farm cleaned its act up after the Animal Liberation 'visited'

1:50 am

herinfernallady

Yes and now all the dogs are dead. And Animal Lib tried to take away one of the pups and the police gave it back to them so thus RSPCA can get bent end of rant

1:52 am

flosey

thanks everyone, have new icon for tomorrow so now am off to bed, goodnight everyone

1:53 am

3:06 am

FMitch

3:06 am

herinfernallady

3:06 am

KatieMcG

No it should be fine, although I'm thinking that now is not the time to remember that I should stay off the dairy when we have baked camembert for starter and chees for desert!

3:06 am

KatieMcG

Is there anything you are avoiding at the moment?

3:07 am

Haz1558

Good morning/evening all. Are we on rationing with babble at the minute? Another measly wee grid.

3:07 am

Atalante

I knoiiiiw! yay!!!

herinfernallady

HI Haz.

Atalante

3:07 am

herinfernallady

Ata can I ask then somefing please

3:07 am

Norma

Wow that sounds gorgeous .... sure we can't bring anything.... only bread seems to be upsetting me at the moment and then only if I eat to much of it fingers crossed ;o)

3:08 am

Atalante

of course!

3:08 am

FMitch

Morning Haz and Norma

3:08 am

KatieMcG

Multi task ata, eat chocolate and play babble lol

3:08 am

herinfernallady

Ok is there any object to me using the image for my ''fake'' stationary company picture for a silly class project

3:08 am

Haz1558

Hello! There are Easter eggs in this house, but none with my name on it.

3:09 am

KatieMcG

Honestly it's fine, there is bread with the starter and garlic bread with the main - chilli, baked pots, salad and garlic bread, but you don't have to eat too much of it.

3:09 am

Atalante

go for it

3:09 am

Haz1558

But call it stationery....

3:09 am

herinfernallady

Thank you. I need an image and didn't want to pee off the larger community.

3:10 am

Norma

That sounds super ... will see you later ... Kim is going to arrive any moment for our wander round town ... xx

3:10 am

KatieMcG

*rushing to Thorntons to get Haz and egg with her name on it*

3:10 am

Atalante

it might be stationary stationery ...

3:10 am

FMitch

Im multi tasking and therefore have got foundation cream on the keyboard as am putting my face on a.t.m.

3:10 am

herinfernallady

Sorry Typo my bad. Glasses not on brain in creativity mode

3:10 am

Haz1558

I've always liked Katie, from even before she became a famous radio personality.

3:11 am

Haz1558

Foundation cream? Is a courier expected?

3:11 am

KatieMcG

Lol Haz. A man I used to work with on another project emailed me to say that it sounded really good, can't tell you what a relief that was!

3:11 am

lynxxx

wow, applyng foundation with a keyboard - I've heard of a brush but...

3:11 am

herinfernallady

In my class we have to create this style manual thingy based on what we have done. Like all the computer templates. I saw the birds and went pretty must ask Ata to pinch

3:11 am

lynxxx

Hello GB people

3:12 am

Haz1558

Excellent! We have faith in you, Katie. They say Chris Evans hasn't really won over the TOGs yet, maybe you're the one to fill Terry's shoes.

3:12 am

FMitch

oh ha ha lynxxx and Haz

3:12 am

Haz1558

Hello lynxxx!

3:12 am

KatieMcG

Just for clarity is FM actually putting makeup on on a non work day? *looking down a large fluffy dressing gown and pink slippers with a head of hair like a tramp*

3:12 am

herinfernallady

FM for me AM means take you as you see me

3:13 am

KatieMcG

Lol for me Weekends means take you as you see me

3:13 am

Haz1558

My slippers aren't pink, otherwise we could be twins, Katie.

3:13 am

lynxxx

glad you were just on the radio then Katie

3:13 am

FMitch

Having probs with skin at the mo so need some cover up :(. As much as I would like to stay have to go but will be back in an hour or two.

3:14 am

Atalante

we understand our place in your priorities

3:14 am

KatieMcG

had a wardrobe clear out last night (hubby away) and realised two things 1) I need to lose a stone before i go on holiday and 2) 50% of my wardrobe is pink

3:14 am

Haz1558

Just don't go for the Cartland look, FM. And I notice you've not told us WHERE you're going. Some of us (not me, of course) might find that suspicious.

3:15 am

KatieMcG

lol lynxxx I have a face for radio :-)

3:15 am

lynxxx

How are you Ata? You have been busy? haven't seen you for ages.

3:15 am

Atalante

alternately busy and ill!

3:16 am

lynxxx

Katie sounds like she is doing a Cartland look too

3:16 am

KatieMcG

*muttering that if babble god worked at my place he would know that tossa is a real word!!*

3:16 am

FMitch

Going to get the last few bits I need for tomorrow, so nothing special. Ata/Haz ready yr email.
TTFN.

3:16 am

herinfernallady

Thank you Ata. I can't believe that it is a Saturday night and I am designing a fake advertisment

3:16 am

Haz1558

Toodle-oo FM!

3:16 am

lynxxx

Still ill?! not the same thing surely Ata?

3:16 am

KatieMcG

Bye FM have a good day

3:16 am

herinfernallady

Enjoy FM

3:16 am

lynxxx

bye FM

3:17 am

Atalante

apparently so! it just whacks me for a day or two at random intervals

3:17 am

Atalante

if I've overdone it the day before

3:17 am

herinfernallady

hugs ata

3:18 am

Haz1558

Ata, read the e-mail yet?

3:18 am

Atalante

just read it yes .........

3:18 am

lynxxx

Crazy. Good reason for me to make sure I get my shot

3:18 am

Atalante

joy of joys

3:19 am

Haz1558

Now looking back...

3:21 am

Atalante

Hobbit is asleep with her head under Sily's catnip mat

3:22 am

herinfernallady

awwww

3:22 am

KatieMcG

that could be interesting when Sily notices

3:23 am

Atalante

yes, it could ..

3:24 am

KatieMcG

I've just had to put the water in the bath on for Casty she refuses to drink the fresh water downstairs and insists on the tap in the bath for her fluids

3:24 am

herinfernallady

sigh I have to use IE

3:24 am

Atalante

silly girl!!

3:25 am

Sally-catlover

Hi everyone. Small grid again today.

3:25 am

KatieMcG

an issue in the mornings when you want a shower and she wants a drink

3:25 am

KatieMcG

Hi sally

3:25 am

lynxxx

better than drinking from the toilet though

3:25 am

Haz1558

Hello Sally. Want to join a protest about the size of the grid?

3:25 am

Atalante

best friend's tortie sits at the end of the bath tub / shower and delicately drinks while you're showering

3:25 am

lynxxx

hi Sally

3:25 am

Sally-catlover

Just read back in the chog. Were you on the radio this morning Katie?

3:26 am

sandrafrances

are ther any more clues on the cr 5/22 pls. i have been monkey typing for ages

3:26 am

Atalante

cr5 has no vowels ...

3:26 am

Sally-catlover

That was my first word, from the chog!

3:26 am

KatieMcG

No Thursday evening on local radio for a work thing, I thought I had got away with it but got caught at 4pm to record it!

3:27 am

sandrafrances

i know that and also i have gathered the middle letter

3:27 am

Sally-catlover

So when do we queue for the autographs?

3:27 am

Haz1558

cr5/22 is a welsh word for crowd, I think. cr, a high scoring consonant, first letters of a definite article, or the letters you see at the end of ordinal numbers.

3:27 am

Atalante

what did they make you talk about?

3:27 am

Haz1558

(Now desperately trying to remember if ordinal numbers is the right term. Maths was a long time ago)

3:28 am

lynxxx

I certainly wouldn't be correcting you

3:28 am

KatieMcG

two affordable housing schemes in Leicester and why it was a good idea for 1) affordable housing as apposed to the empty apartments in the city 2) the council to put their land in for a pound

3:28 am

Haz1558

Well done, lynxxx, my children learned that lesson early on....

3:29 am

Atalante

oooo good old council!

3:29 am

KatieMcG

luckily when the election is announced (probably Tuesday) we will go into Purdah so will not have to do anything else until mid May

3:29 am

sandrafrances

got it thanks very much Haz

3:30 am

Haz1558

Glad you got it, sandra, it's been in before but a long time ago.

3:30 am

lynxxx

lol not for that reason Haz (though I hold you in high regard of course) I just don't think they even knew about ordinal numbers in my day! never heard of them

3:30 am

KatieMcG

wow so have I ty to Haz and my Monkeys

3:31 am

Haz1558

*smug* Of course, Ata's grandfather probably coined the term.

3:31 am

Haz1558

Katie, do you mean that all civil servants just down tools until after the election? Drinking tea and knitting becomes the order of the day?

3:32 am

Atalante

probaly

3:32 am

Atalante

we had chocolate cake at KWT on Tuesday

3:32 am

Haz1558

Home-made or bought?

3:33 am

Haz1558

The civil servants will probably have cake-making competitions.

3:33 am

KatieMcG

unfortunately what we do is try and do our normal job, without letting anyone know what we are doing so nothing can be seen as political, it all becomes a bit of a nightmare, on the bright side we can't take any public speaking gigs which gets me out of opening an Extra Care Conference - yeah!

3:33 am

Haz1558

And home-made jam competitions. It'll be one long eating contest.

3:33 am

Atalante

I'm not sure ... it was from a members' day the day before. but it was very yummy! the week before we had Christmas Cake (don't ask) and a cheese board

3:34 am

Haz1558

Okay, I have to ask. Christmas cake? In March?

3:34 am

Atalante

no idea. someone brought it in LOL

3:35 am

KatieMcG

they had a sausage off (a sausage tasting competition) at one of our offices on Thursday. We are seriously thinking of having a Tart off when Ringo leaves

3:35 am

Haz1558

You've got Ringo Starr working with you? No wonder you've got showbiz aspirations!

3:36 am

Haz1558

Although he doesn't give out autographs any more, does he?

3:36 am

lynxxx

and who is Ringo's tart?

3:36 am

Sally-catlover

Adjusts glasses. Ah! TART! Read that as starting with an F for a moment.

3:36 am

Haz1558

That's no way to talk about his wife!

3:36 am

KatieMcG

luckily my Ringo is a much more cheery fellow :-) He was the one who went for my job and didn't get it so he is moving on. I'll miss him but at the same time am a little bit relieved he is going

3:36 am

Atalante

is he too famous to sign things?

3:36 am

KatieMcG

lol sally, even we would draw the line at that

3:36 am

lynxxx

silly Sally - don't you know it is always about food here

3:37 am

Haz1558

He's got fed up, apparently, 300 years of signing Ringo has affected his equilibrium.

3:37 am

Sally-catlover

True lynxxx.

3:38 am

Atalante

oh the poor man

3:38 am

KatieMcG

in a homage to corby we were going to do fried confectionary (i.e. deep fried mars bar) and wanted to call it the Big F Off, but again I had to put my managerial foot down. lol

3:38 am

Haz1558

Let's face it, Ringo went mad because of autographs, Paul got married to Heather - proof of madness.

3:39 am

Sally-catlover

I've heard of but never eaten a deep fried mars bar. It sounds revolting

3:39 am

herinfernallady

Thank you once again Ata. Off again

3:39 am

Sally-catlover

Has Ringo really gone mad?

3:39 am

KatieMcG

Ringo has his birth name which no one can pronounce so he changed it to Ringo by deed, I can only assume that he was very very young at the time

3:39 am

Haz1558

I wonder how much alcohol the first mars bar frier had consumed?

3:40 am

Haz1558

Ringo Starr? Not so much mad as grumpy, I think.

3:40 am

KatieMcG

I have never eaten one either but honestly they do sell them. Seemingly dipped in batter and fried, and works with most chocolate bars

3:40 am

Atalante

isn't that a Glaswegian thing?

3:40 am

KatieMcG

Ringo Starr does seem very very grumpy

3:40 am

KatieMcG

That's were is started Ata but Corby is little Scotland afterall

3:41 am

Haz1558

I don't think it ever featured on Rab C Nesbitt, though.

3:42 am

Sally-catlover

There are so many "nearly" words in this grid today. Nearly tench, nearly newt, etc.

3:42 am

Atalante

Scotland is prettier than Corby ...

3:42 am

Haz1558

Or maybe the English people couldn't understand - they used to write in to Points of View demanding subtitles.

3:43 am

Atalante

there's a da7 that's one of my fav animals though

3:43 am

lynxxx

what Elmer Fudd called Scrabblers pets is sort of here

3:43 am

Sally-catlover

ty for the hint Ata. Looking

3:44 am

Haz1558

Ata's favourite animals are probably prehistoric or endangered fish.

3:44 am

KatieMcG

half way, better be off to cook and clean (a womans work is never done lol) hopefully be back later to finish)

3:44 am

Atalante

them too. these aren't though. they are cute and furry.

Haz1558

I was wrong - a form of hyrax.

3:45 am

Atalante

they live on Table Mountain

3:45 am

Haz1558

Bye Katie - don't forget to get dressed. You never know when the paparazzi might turn up.

3:46 am

rubyfoo

wometime is a good portmanteau word - for a pregancy maybe!

3:46 am

Haz1558

Look at Cherie Blair, the morning after the election....

3:46 am

rubyfoo

hello, was interrupted

3:46 am

KatieMcG

lol Haz, don't you worry the curtains will remain closed! *poof*

3:46 am

rubyfoo

gd morning haz and ata and katie

3:46 am

Haz1558

Good morning, ruby;

3:46 am

Atalante

hi ruby!

3:46 am

Sally-catlover

I'd rather not look, Haz. Good morning ruby!

3:47 am

lynxxx

hi Ruby

3:47 am

Haz1558

Do you think the servants in no10 just stood by to let her make a fool of herself?

3:47 am

Sally-catlover

She wasn't in No 10 though, was she? Somewhere they lived at the time. It was a shudder moment.

3:48 am

Haz1558

I must check....

3:49 am

lynxxx

I only saw the other day they have Downing street fenced off. Here I was thinking it was very 'of the people' to just have a bobby at the door for protection

3:49 am

Atalante

still, someone should have told her not to open that door ...

3:50 am

Atalante

yep, big black railings at the end of the street

3:50 am

hurshy

opening the door in a state of undress is awfully mild compared to the latest scandal we have in the states...

3:51 am

rubyfoo

what now? the church or more?

3:51 am

Haz1558

You can click on my icon now to see the pic. I'm swaying towards it not being no 10.

3:51 am

lynxxx

hi Hursh, do tell

3:51 am

rubyfoo

we have Monica Bellucci, 8 mos pregs on the cover of a French magazine this AM -- she is so beautiful, usually, why would she do that? She can't need the money.....

3:51 am

Atalante

if it was the night after the election, it would have been in their old place, i think

3:52 am

Atalante

is copying demi moore's pose from Vanity Fair, ruby

3:52 am

Atalante

but why they are doing that, I don't know

3:52 am

rubyfoo

I know, but Demi was a lot younger!

3:52 am

Sally-catlover

lynxxx, when I was a child it was like that, not fenced off and with a bobby at the door. I remember walking down Downing Street and looking at the door. Pre-terrorist days then (well, until they saw me, of course!).

3:53 am

rubyfoo

and also Demi was photgraphed by Annie Lebowitz

3:53 am

Haz1558

Yes, it was the door of her Islington home, not no 10.

3:53 am

hurshy

republicans. first it was the house for christian men to live in and have bible study, in which it turned out lots of them were cheating on their wives and helping each other cover it up. now the latest is that apparently a bunch of republicans frequent lesbian bondage themed strip clubs in hollywood.

3:53 am

Atalante

I suppose people are allowed to frequent lesbian bondage strip clubs if they want ...

3:53 am

rubyfoo

that's a hoot! talk about a narrow niche!

3:53 am

Haz1558

For purposes of research, of course.

3:54 am

Atalante

as long as they do their jobs well in the day

3:54 am

Sally-catlover

Post. brb

3:54 am

rubyfoo

are they hiring?

3:55 am

hurshy

not these people, ata. it doesn't, um, fit. like for instance, the guy who was visiting lots of prostitutes while voting against gay marriage as an attack on the sanctity of marriage.

3:55 am

lynxxx

you want to work in a lesbian bondage strip club Ruby!?

3:55 am

Atalante

yes, that's a bit ....

3:55 am

hurshy

most of these guys base their jobs on moral purity, particularly in sexual matters, so...

3:55 am

rubyfoo

just kidding! raofl, if you could see me!

3:56 am

Atalante

but I do hate it when we have huge headlines about people's private lives. I couldn't give a stuff whether my MP was going to lesbian bondage strip clubs as long as he does a good job from 9-5!

3:56 am

rubyfoo

I wouldn't care what they do for "fun", but the hypocrisy of it drives me a little crazy

3:56 am

hurshy

but again, if your MP's main agenda was to regulate people's sexual lives...

3:56 am

Atalante

but yes, if that goes fundamentally against what they stand for, then ...

3:57 am

Haz1558

You'd take the fun out of 'Have I got news for you' if you didn't poke fun at the politicians.

3:57 am

rubyfoo

yes, like the American Republicans!

3:57 am

hurshy

remember, we started off with puritans and never really got over it.

3:58 am

rubyfoo

I never found the da7, ata's animal....

3:58 am

hurshy

rhymes with famous tv dog, pl

3:58 am

Atalante

there was a story in the papers today here about some guy who got done for fraud and was put in jail for 3 years. but the headlines were OMG GUY HAS SECRET BONDAGE CLUB!!! OMG!!!

3:58 am

Atalante

um ... I really don't care what he does with his private time?

3:59 am

Haz1558

da7 - plural word, almost like d plus plural donkeys, but put another vowel in.

3:59 am

rubyfoo

too funny

3:59 am

hurshy

oh but ata, i forgot, i think they were using gov't money to GO to the strip club, so, there was ALSO that.

3:59 am

rubyfoo

I never saw the word before, but am writing it down!

4:00 am

rubyfoo

sounds like Eliot Spitzer, the dope!

4:00 am

Atalante

now THAT'S another issue! And veyr wrong

4:00 am

hurshy

no wait, it wasn't gov't money - just party money. still.

4:00 am

Atalante

still. it wasn't collected for strip club visits

4:01 am

hurshy

the donors presumably didn't have that in mind, no.

4:02 am

hurshy

it's really a miracle we have the president we do. seems like the only politician who's also basically a good guy.

4:03 am

Atalante

no, it's just the stories about him won't come out until he's dead / out of power

4:03 am

hurshy

and then people try to ruin that... some blogger-turned-foxnews-commentator had at one point blogged that obama was only faithful because his "marxist harpy" wife would go lorena bobbit on him if he weren't.

4:03 am

Haz1558

Well, must take a break to get civilised looking. Back shortly.

4:04 am

lynxxx

freedom of speech has a lot to answer for - that is disgusting - I hope she comes and slaps his face

4:05 am

hurshy

oh ata, you underestimate the zeal of the opposition. there was some mild dirt about a questionable real estate purchase that came out during the campaign... you can bet that anything he does remotely wrong would be sniffed out and used as grounds for impeachment in a heartbeat.

4:05 am

Atalante

yes ... but also the really bad stuff tends to stay hidden ...

4:06 am

hurshy

monica lewinsky...

4:06 am

Atalante

he didn't come out of that too badly ... not really

4:07 am

PMS

s

4:07 am

Atalante

I'm quite sure that a lot of stuff is kept hidden in all governments. It's why a lot of documents have 25 year rules on them etc etc

4:07 am

hurshy

no, not at all, just lost credibility and had even more trouble getting anything done...

4:07 am

hurshy

but that's state decisions and policies - not personal wrongdoing.

4:07 am

Atalante

could have been worse though ...

4:08 am

hurshy

everyone still snickers about it, it's the main thing they associate with him... quite the proud legacy for a president

4:09 am

Atalante

at least he has a personality. Look at Gordon Brown :P

4:10 am

hurshy

we don't look at gordon brown - presumably for that very reason.

4:10 am

Atalante

we try not to, too

4:10 am

Sally-catlover

One thing worse than seeing Cherie at the doorstep in her dressing gown would be Gordon Brown doing the same.

4:11 am

Atalante

absolutely!!!

4:11 am

hurshy

she had on a dressing gown???

4:11 am

hurshy

well then what's the problem?

4:11 am

Atalante

honestly, I'd rather have a president who shagged his interns in the Oval Office than a prime minister who is - nothing. Not even bland.

4:11 am

Atalante

google the pics, hurshy, you'll see

4:12 am

hurshy

the Nothing... it's like in the neverending story...

4:12 am

Atalante

but we don't have Atreyu to save us

4:14 am

hurshy

bad hair day... can't tell for sure from this pic but i guess the gown was open?

4:16 am

Atalante

I hope not. that would have been even worse

4:17 am

hurshy

well then what IS the problem???

4:17 am

Atalante

um. look at her. what if michelle obama opened the door looking like that?

4:17 am

hurshy

some people would be critical, then the feminists would jump down their throats.

4:17 am

Atalante

the day after they were elected into the white house

4:18 am

Atalante

well we just get the critical bit

4:18 am

hurshy

clearly you need better feminists.

4:18 am

lynxxx

Can't get past 17. Bidding you all goodnight - bye!

4:19 am

Sally-catlover

I think it's partly shadenfruede. She isn't popular, so to see her looking like that cheered everyone's day.

4:19 am

Atalante

absolutely

4:20 am

hurshy

she looks like she'd have made a good comedy actor

4:20 am

Atalante

it wasn't a bad thing, just one more embarrassment

4:22 am

Atalante

firebirds!

4:23 am

Sally-catlover

Yay for Ata!

4:23 am

hurshy

me too!

4:23 am

Atalante

copycat!!

4:23 am

Atalante

yay smurshy!

4:23 am

hurshy

well you knew i wanted to be like you :) other than the whole science geek bit...

4:24 am

Sally-catlover

Yay for hurshy too!

4:24 am

Atalante

only cos I get to see Dr Who tonight :P

4:25 am

hurshy

no, not cos of that, cause you're brilliant!

4:25 am

Atalante

well yes. LOL. *smug*

4:26 am

hurshy

and now i must see if i can get back to sleep and not have the bad dreams i was having before i woke up. ttfn and no spoilers re: the doctor tomorrow!

4:26 am

Atalante

will try! sleep well!

4:26 am

Sally-catlover

Good night, sweet dreams hurshy

4:30 am

FMitch

Hi again, back from my quick shopping trip.

4:30 am

Atalante

helloooo

4:30 am

Sally-catlover

hi FM. brb

4:31 am

FMitch

Hi Sally
Hey Ata, how are you feeling these days, better I hope?

4:32 am

Atalante

better than yesterday. had another flopped out on sofa boiling hot - freezing cold day yesterday

4:32 am

FMitch

oh poor dear! this is dragging on and on for you :(

4:33 am

Atalante

tell me about it!!

4:33 am

FMitch

HAve you been back to the Docs?

4:33 am

Atalante

no, it's "only" been 6 months, and I suspect they'd only really get interested in a few months

4:34 am

FMitch

twit!!! Go to the Dr!

4:34 am

Atalante

*grumble*

4:35 am

Atalante

my blood test results are always all ok, so dunno what they could do

4:35 am

FMitch

Never mind grumbling :)
Saw a lovely elderly springer this morning, a tad portly but the tail was still sproingy.

4:36 am

Atalante

the tails never stop!!

4:36 am

FMitch

I moved the furniture around in the sitting room yesterday, looks much better.

4:37 am

Atalante

if I actually thought the dr could do something to help, I'd be there like a shot. But they won't, they'll just take more blood, declare it fine, and tell me to rest

4:37 am

Atalante

yay!

4:38 am

mrpresident

hi all :) long time not here, but happy to be playing this game

4:38 am

FMitch

Atalante

4:44 am

Brookie

Okay, super busy, lucky if I get half the grid done each day. Working on a huge editing project that's taking up most of my babbling time! The things we have to sacrifice to earn money...

Flask1

Hi all......

6:34 am

Nancy Boy

*whispers* anyone around to clue the other two 7s, pleases? I have the to7 and the first sa7

6:34 am

Nancy Boy

Oh, hi Flask :) you're saying hello into an empty void this morning. There's nobody!

6:36 am

hydra

Nancyyyyyyy! I'm here. Can't help, tho. I have same 7s you have

6:36 am

Flask1

Hi Nancy, the only 7 I have is the da7....flowers!

6:37 am

Nancy Boy

Hiya, Hydra! Been lurking? :)
Flowers, Flask? Thanks, I'll think on that one!

6:38 am

hydra

Oh! I have a da7 which is a hyrax. Is that a goat? Haven't got the flowers. Yes, Nancy, I blocked the chat and got on with my words. Coward that I am!

6:38 am

hydra

Or is 'flowers' a clue, Flask, 'cos it is a well known flower with one change of letter?

6:38 am

Flask1

they grow on the grass......spelt with an extra snake letter in the middle!!

6:40 am

Nancy Boy

Got it! Lovely. Thanks, ladies :)

6:41 am

hydra

Yep, that's the one I have. Just got the other sa7. Last letter is one letter up from previous 7.

6:41 am

Nancy Boy

DUH. How did I miss that. Thanks, Hydra! That's my sevens vanquished, then

6:42 am

hydra

Easy to miss cos they are unfamiliar words. I'd never heard of the one with the plural ending.

6:43 am

Flask1

sorry about the spelling confusion.....

6:44 am

Nancy Boy

Leaves me with 18. Should probably try and fit breakfast in at some point today, too ;) or some sleep!

6:44 am

Nancy Boy

confusion, Flask?

6:44 am

hydra

What a great photo of you, Nancy. You look like a model.

6:45 am

Nancy Boy

Thanks, Hydra! We have a friend around here who works as a photographer, so we got use of her studio and professional lights and stuff, all her photographic witchcraft :)

6:46 am

hydra

It worked really well for you. Wonder if her lighting could iron out my wrinkles???

6:46 am

Lady Biotch

I was going to say the same thing love the new hair NB looks great!

6:46 am

Scrabbler

NB, you are adorable!

6:46 am

Nancy Boy

I miss having my longer hair, though. I keep catching myself brushing my shoulder blades ;)

6:46 am

Nancy Boy

why thank you ladies ;) *preens*

6:47 am

hydra

I'm sure we all want to give you big hugs!!!

6:48 am

hydra

gosh, that cr5,22 is a peculiar word. It sounds Welsh.

6:48 am

Nancy Boy

LOL Hydra! Wow, I'm so flattered ;)

6:49 am

Nancy Boy

does it have ANY vowels in it?!

6:49 am

hydra

No. But one of the consonants is pronounced as 'oo' in Welsh.

6:50 am

Nancy Boy

thanks ;) scanning my phone contacts for anyone welsh now!

6:51 am

hydra

Rhymes with 'strewth', Nancy!

6:51 am

Nancy Boy

got it ;) thanks, Hydra!

6:51 am

Scrabbler

TY, hydra.

6:52 am

Nancy Boy

I kept trying to sucker the Y into it...never would've gotten that

6:52 am

hydra

Well, must dash. Partner just come in with a rabbit. (Not alive. For culinary purposes only!)

6:52 am

hydra

Bye, all. Happy Easter! See you later *poof*

6:52 am

Nancy Boy

Happy easter, Hydra!! x

Yikes. I won't tell my dear bunnies that are hoing around my house.

morning, oh man, another small grid....Dr God if you can control this at all, could we have a 200 word grid???

6:53 am

Scrabbler

Hi Red

6:53 am

Nancy Boy

I wondered if that might offend some adorable floppy ears Scrabbs ;)

6:53 am

Nancy Boy

Hi, Red!

6:53 am

Hi Scrabbs.

6:55 am

redturtlehead

I know!

6:56 am

redturtlehead

I think I may go over to titusville this Monday for a Space shuttle launch...

6:57 am

redturtlehead

Scrabbs, your buffalo hockey team is in the grid!!!

6:57 am

Nancy Boy

oooh Red, definitely! I may be a nancy boy but the prospect of all that grease, oil and metal is still awesome and manly

6:58 am

redturtlehead

Well, the last time I tried to go, it was freezing, and crowded, and failed to go off! sooooo

6:59 am

Nancy Boy

How regularly does it happen, Red?

7:00 am

redturtlehead

well, the program is ending, so this is one of the last. Used to go off every 3-4 months or so sometimes more often.

7:00 am

EspritdJean

love your photo NB

7:00 am

redturtlehead

hi jean.

7:00 am

Nancy Boy

wow, that's crazy. So where are the shuttles headed?

7:01 am

Nancy Boy

Thanks, Esprit! It was the best of the bunch, managed to escaped capturing the enormous bags under my eyes ;)

7:01 am

Scrabbler

TY for the clue, Red. I have not been seeing much in this grid yet--peripheral vowels are the problem.

7:01 am

EspritdJean

no, couldn't be cuter

7:01 am

redturtlehead

THe Space Station.

7:01 am

EspritdJean

gm turtledove

7:02 am

EspritdJean

red, that sounds like a "Jaywalking" question...Where is the international space station located?

7:02 am

Nancy Boy

that's so mental. Space kind of scares me. Like oceans. Too big!

7:02 am

Nancy Boy

Well I try my best Esprit ;)

7:02 am

redturtlehead

well, Jean, I dont know exactly, somewhere in Space!!

7:03 am

EspritdJean

I know, but some people will answer: Um, Russia . . . Um, Nevada, etc

7:03 am

EspritdJean

(((NB))) that's all any of us can do

7:04 am

redturtlehead

This is sad, but true Jean.

7:04 am

EspritdJean

someone sent me an email the other day of Jay Leno asking pretty obvious questions like that and it WAS pathetic

7:04 am

Nancy Boy

LOL Esprit! I'll admit for a moment I was thinking "oh, above England!" ...good job I've got a good photo 'cause the brains are lacking ;)

7:05 am

EspritdJean

;-p

7:05 am

redturtlehead

Jean, I see those, and I always wonder where did he find those people....

7:05 am

redturtlehead

I also wonder if they find someone who knows the answers do they shwo ti... because it isnt funny if you know the answers!

7:05 am

EspritdJean

they walk among us Red, and they VOTE and they REPRODUCE

7:06 am

redturtlehead

I wish they would not vote.

J. C.

Snatched it back again? It works on MSN/Windows Live then - if it works?

The busier you get the more time you spend here? Hmmm. The busier I get the less time I have to spend doing anything online - better time management needed, perhaps? :P

we don't do fancy but we do big. i'm trying to downsize but meeting resistance. my MIL is upset only two veggies and two kinds of potatoes this year.

hey torgone! just the guy i was hoping to 'see' today ... i waver between mac/pc, but needed to replace an older pc today and bought one with windows 7. does firefox 3.6 have incompatibility issues with this version of windows? I've searched for answers, but can't finagle a way to successfully install the browser onto the pc

8:19 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

8:20 pm

welki

i've tried saving the install file on my desktop and running it from there (on advice from some support forum) but that didn't work

8:20 pm

welki

8:24 pm

Trifioso

8:27 pm

Riverdance

what is fishville

8:27 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

my best advice is to cozy up to mputer nerds whenever possible, then when you need puter help, they will help you out and not charge $120/hr to do so 8-D

8:27 pm

Minveryork

I desperately need something sweet right about now, but there is precious little in the house....

8:30 pm

Riverdance

8:30 pm

welki

8:30 pm

Minveryork

Phantom words for me today were recess and resist.

8:32 pm

Barb's Horses

I keep thinking i see screw...but it isn't there

8:32 pm

Minveryork

It was a badass grid,but not as badass as yesterdays

8:32 pm

Riverdance

O + double cons + vowel

8:32 pm

Minveryork

Guess that you're screwed on that one Barb's Horses

8:32 pm

Jacula

I thought both grids were not too bad.

8:32 pm

Barb's Horses

lol yup

8:33 pm

Riverdance

Ot4/5 - think eye

8:33 pm

Minveryork

Hello Jacula! That is because you are a pro at Babble.

8:33 pm

Barb's Horses

thanks got that one now mom

8:33 pm

Minveryork

se 4/4 is se plus to be. se 4/5 sounds like intercourse

8:33 pm

Jacula

I tried Word Tornado on FB yesterday and today. Someone played the word QOPH against me. I don't think that's cropped up in Babble so far.

8:34 pm

Riverdance

clue I was given today was - Os_ think indiana natives

8:34 pm

Trifioso

no chocolate chips. Settling (and I do mean settling!) for dragging apple slices through secondo's secret jar of nutella

8:34 pm

Jacula

I'm not a pro a Word Tornado, which seems to be full of professional Scrabble players who are more insterested in points than what words mean.

8:34 pm

Minveryork

Finally, that sc 4/7 word is plus weep Barb's Horses.

8:35 pm

Barb's Horses

wow have to scroll back and read...one sec

8:35 pm

Minveryork

What is Word Tornado.What is the point of the game

8:35 pm

Jacula

Min - it's a game on Facebook. I haven't managed to find a 'how to play' or 'rules' part yet.

8:36 pm

Jacula

It seems to be like Scabble.

8:36 pm

Riverdance

I love this game and will stay with it

8:36 pm

Minveryork

Jacula, have you played Scrabble Blast? I used to play

8:37 pm

Jacula

You play against people you don't know. Just random really. 6 Babblers are members, but none has been looged in when I've been there.

8:37 pm

Riverdance

I also play wordsplay

8:37 pm

Minveryork

I agree w/Momneedshelp. Don't need any more word games. That is why I stopped playing Scrabble Blast.

8:37 pm

Riverdance

I dont do FB often

8:38 pm

Riverdance

Wordsplay is a quick 3 minute game - get as many words as you can in that time = stressful at times

8:38 pm

Minveryork

The only other word game I play is Boggle. Don't like to compete with others when I do word games which is why I like Babble and Boggle (it's really WordTwist).

8:39 pm

Riverdance

what is the site for boggle

8:39 pm

Minveryork

Wordsplay sounds like WordTwist, the boggle game I play Momneedshelp. It is also a 3 minute word game.

8:40 pm

Jacula

Gosh! I haven't played Boggle for ages.

8:40 pm

Barb's Horses

k got all the s3/3 words at the top under the y....but can't figure the os...indiana native

8:40 pm

Trifioso

8:41 pm

Riverdance

8:41 pm

Jacula

I prefer Babble to any other word game I play. You can clue, chat, look back on chat missed, the community is a good one.... need I go on?

8:41 pm

Minveryork

os 5/10 is os plus a comparative ending Barb's Horses

8:41 pm

Minveryork

os6/18 is the plural of the os5/10 word Barb's Horses

8:41 pm

Riverdance

Os+ ha*** when I play word games

8:42 pm

Minveryork

Finally, the ow4/8 is ow plus *outh*east Barb's Horses

8:42 pm

Jacula

os5.10 - a willow branch. os6.18 is the plural.

8:42 pm

Minveryork

You don't need to go on. I totally agree w/you Jacula

8:42 pm

Riverdance

I love babble too jacula - I was sooooo addicted to wordsplay but since I heard about this game - prefer to be here

8:43 pm

Jacula

Min - I thought you would.xx

8:43 pm

Trifioso

I agree totally, jacula! Babble is a game, it's a community, it's heaven!

8:43 pm

Jacula

Momn - so glad to hear that. We're a nice bunch.

8:43 pm

Good Enough

oh mom i forgot that you played wordsplay. i like this better too. thanks Kaplan for the referral

8:43 pm

Jacula

Trif - couldn't have put it better myself.

8:44 pm

Jacula

Dr_God - Do I get commission for this? LOL

8:44 pm

Riverdance

The best - I had a real bad afternoon and the first thing I thought of was to get here to be with my babble friends to lighten the load (as they say.)

8:44 pm

Trifioso

now jacula, would you be so kind as to reach over here and take this nutella away? I am so totally scarfing it! major chocolate jones today!

8:45 pm

Jacula

*Swipes Nutella over The Pond and out of Trif's reach*

8:46 pm

Jacula

I won't eat it 'cos I hate the stuff, by my stepdaughter will snaffle it.

8:46 pm

Trifioso

thanks love! okay, back in a few to finish my last 12 words -- have to switch laundry loads, and PCs!

8:46 pm

Jacula

Momn - that's how it is here.

8:47 pm

Barb's Horses

so lighten away Mom....>>hug<< to feel better

8:48 pm

Jacula

Oh, looking out of the window, I see the week-old hard boiled egg I chucked onto the lawn has gone. Foxes must like those, too.

8:48 pm

Riverdance

Jacula - many people really need this game - including me for more reasons than you can imagine

8:49 pm

Riverdance

thanks Barb - what help do you need

8:49 pm

Riverdance

eggs on the lawn - I would have turkeys jumping at them

8:49 pm

Jacula

Barb's Horses

8:50 pm

Jacula

Momn - Oh, I don't need to imagine.xx

8:50 pm

Jacula

Barb's Horses - which 'o; do you need?

O= small bug you get off your dog

9:00 pm

Barb's Horses

got os5/10 os6/18 os4/4 ot4/5 ow4/8

9:00 pm

Jacula

All ex-hubby could think to say when the cake was borne out of the kitchen by a smiling waitress, was, 'There are 13 candles on that cake!' It was a joint birthday meal for my daughter and her Dad (my Ex). He was 55 and she was 23. I didn't really want to risk putting 78 candles onto a cake, and so I thought candles spelling HAPPY BIRTHDAY would be fun. My son counted the candles, too, apparently. But his sister didn't and neither did their grandparents, who were also present.

9:00 pm

Riverdance

o+ double cons + first vowel

9:00 pm

Barb's Horses

got that one

9:02 pm

Barb's Horses

it's the first os 4,4 I am missing I think

9:02 pm

Riverdance

9:02 pm

Jacula

1st os4/4 is like the plural of the red flower for lovers, but without the first letter.

9:02 pm

Barb's Horses

9:03 pm

Barb's Horses

9:04 pm

Barb's Horses

9:04 pm

Jacula

Oh, and that's another thing about Babble, people you have never met give you lifetime membership, or pay for aa Babblecast or something.

9:05 pm

Jacula

I did get my own membership.

9:05 pm

Barb's Horses

yes someone paid for mine...I am forever grateful who ever it was ...was very kind indeed

9:05 pm

Jacula

Barb - don't you know who it was?

9:05 pm

Riverdance

Is that something different than pro

9:05 pm

Jacula

BTW, it wasn't me.

9:06 pm

crosshair

many babblers have been gifted with subscrips;) sets us a cut above;)

9:06 pm

Barb's Horses

it wasn't you who paid for me...? well whoever it was I still would love to thank them...sat around for a week in shock that someone would pay for me and not even know me...truely nice people on here

9:08 pm

Riverdance

the folks here are the best

9:08 pm

Barb's Horses

Actually kind of funny at the time cause I was just going to ask my hubby if we could swing it so I could join...and then lo and behold I noticed I was a member and could add a picture

9:08 pm

Jacula

Momn - that depends on whether you're thinking of LicketyPro and beinga ProBabbler. LicketyPro is free by e-mail and a link, but won't give you lifetime membership to Babble. Lifetime membership to Babble is a different thing, and any member can pay for another if they want to. And that's a frequent occurrence.

9:09 pm

crosshair

babble is much more than finishing a grid:)))

9:09 pm

Jacula

Hi Crossy. Got a bacon sandwich for me? I just fancy one now.

9:09 pm

Riverdance

I bought my lifetime membership to Babble a few weeks ago when my 14 day free time expired - I couldnt do it without stats

9:09 pm

Riverdance

that is true crossy - but I needed to be a part of it all

9:09 pm

crosshair

lol mom,i went pro after 3 days

9:09 pm

gwenski

Hi everyone! Got any help for the da6/7?

9:09 pm

Barb's Horses

I know it isn't a large cost but right now with me not working for the last 1 1/2 things are tight. I could get rid of my horses...but then I can't do that as they are part of my family...silly as that sounds to some

9:10 pm

Barb's Horses

hi gwenski

9:10 pm

Barb's Horses

oops make that years

9:10 pm

crosshair

9:10 pm

gwenski

9:11 pm

Riverdance

9:11 pm

10:28 pm

jmcnrick

"when does the service begin?"

10:28 pm

Minveryork

Been saving them since twelve'o'clock this afternoon

10:30 pm

jmcnrick

"right after the worship ends"

10:30 pm

I am actually taking the train to Phillie to see a play about an old family friend Molly Ivans

10:31 pm

Trifioso

10:31 pm

Trifioso

I love molly ivans!!!!

10:32 pm

jmcnrick

traditionally we have a regular meeting. we exchew holidays (holy days) because all days are holy

10:32 pm

jmcnrick

*eschew

10:32 pm

jmcnrick

but we tend to let the kiddies have their fun

10:34 pm

So if a black cat crosses your path one day and then another black cat crosses your path going the other direction, do they cancel eachother out?

10:44 pm

aebmusica
