2:16 am

flosey

I just hit half way on the nose

2:16 am

jillibus

hope you didn't break it

2:17 am

flosey

lol

2:26 am

jillibus

got the pa9 -- it pays to be patient (that's not a clue)

2:26 am

flosey

2:27 am

flosey

one is a plural

2:28 am

jillibus

haven't got there yet, flosey

2:29 am

flosey

it was clued - possibly while you were out

2:30 am

jillibus

ah, maybe, but I'll wait until I see where it is, if I can stay awake

2:31 am

flosey

don't know when I've had such trouble with 4s

2:31 am

flosey

I'm fading fast

2:31 am

jillibus

I'm just having my normal trouble, lol!

2:32 am

flosey

have to be at the pool at 10:

2:32 am

jillibus

oh yes!

2:32 am

jillibus

Is it helping?

2:33 am

flosey

I'm really enjoying it, jilli, lots of fun, good group

2:33 am

flosey

well, I come out with legs feeling like rubber

2:33 am

jillibus

that's great

2:33 am

flosey

but it has to be helping

2:34 am

jillibus

I wish everything wasn't so early!

2:34 am

flosey

lol, she also has a class at 8:am

2:35 am

flosey

in the community pool

2:35 am

jillibus

I know -- even worse! There's hardly anything in the afternoon

2:36 am

flosey

I think there are other classes later but don't know the hours

2:36 am

jillibus

There used to be line dancing on Thursday afternoons but it was discontinued although well attended

2:36 am

flosey

where was that held?

2:36 am

flosey

that sounds interesting

2:37 am

jillibus

Mahon Hall, I think

2:37 am

flosey

not sure I'm ready for an hour on my feet, just yet anyway

2:38 am

jillibus

well, there isn't any now anyhow

2:38 am

flosey

wonder who the instructor was

2:39 am

jillibus

Rosemary somebody and Ila May Dickson

2:40 am

jillibus

ah, I've come to the se8/9 -- no idea but I'm half alseep

2:40 am

flosey

want a clue?

2:41 am

jillibus

sure

2:41 am

flosey

se4 and ra4 then plural

2:42 am

flosey

(or se3 and tr5)

2:42 am

jillibus

thoght that might be the beginning and got a giggle out of the possible ra4

2:42 am

flosey

lol

2:43 am

jillibus

ah, got it -- thanks

2:43 am

flosey

yw

2:43 am

jillibus

never heard of such a thing

2:44 am

flosey

I sent you a yahoo message but ignore it, I'll ask you at bridge tomorrow night

2:44 am

flosey

well, Vancouver does have a seabus to the north shore

2:45 am

jillibus

I saw it but couldn't think of the answer so I thought I'd leave it to the morning when I might be able to think

2:46 am

flosey

was most annoying - I tried getting MSN messenger back and that's all that happened!

2:48 am

jillibus

Hmf -- Laura just left a note that she seems to be getting kicked off there. What's going on?

2:48 am

jillibus

maybe that's an old note

2:49 am

flosey

oh, that is strange, that both of us were hoofed same day

2:49 am

jillibus

now I can't find your message

2:49 am

flosey

MSN suddenly appeared as my home page and I want to get back to SSNews

2:50 am

jillibus

pushy MSN! I guess you're using IE?

2:51 am

flosey

but I've been using SSNews

2:51 am

jillibus

I'll have to think -- or maybe there's a lurker who knows

2:52 am

jillibus

how to set a home page

2:52 am

flosey

ok, not to worry

2:52 am

flosey

I wonder if we're the only ones in here

2:52 am

jillibus

seems like it

2:52 am

Haz1558

No, you're not..

2:53 am

flosey

Hi there Haz

2:53 am

jillibus

Hello, Haz!

2:53 am

Sally-catlover

lol, I'm here too.

2:53 am

Haz1558

Good evening - nice grid so far.

2:53 am

flosey

hi Sally

2:53 am

Haz1558

Just don't be asking me anything about setting home pages!

2:53 am

Sally-catlover

Just like to get a bit of the grid done before I chat.

2:53 am

Haz1558

Hello Sally.

2:53 am

jillibus

hi Sally

2:53 am

flosey

lol, ok Haz

2:54 am

Haz1558

And right on cue. the phone.

2:54 am

flosey

I had to ask before and I know I wrote it down but can't find it now, of course

2:55 am

jillibus

and i can't find my brain

2:55 am

Sally-catlover

Don't use IE and can't remember, but you can certainly set your home page to whatever you want. You could always try the help pages, or google it.

2:55 am

flosey

perhaps it is taking a nap jilli

2:55 am

flosey

will try that tomorrow, thanks Sally

2:55 am

jillibus

it wants to, I know!

2:56 am

jillibus

flosey -- that's it -- just ask google

2:56 am

flosey

I'll do that, thanks

2:56 am

Haz1558

If you go into My Computer, can you not get into where you set your home page?

2:56 am

nursegladys

flosey you just right click on your ie icon and go into properties

2:56 am

3:01 am

Sally-catlover

hi ruby

3:01 am

jillibus

hi and bye ruby

3:01 am

flosey

well done jilli

3:01 am

rubyfoo

3:01 am

rubyfoo

hi and bye jilli

3:02 am

rubyfoo

bye flosey

3:02 am

rubyfoo

I really missed playing!

3:02 am

jillibus

Oh great, ruby -- I know what that's like!

3:02 am

Sally-catlover

I haven't been on the chog myself ruby, so what was wrong with the computer?

3:03 am

rubyfoo

it was making the "hairball" noise again and crossy said it was the hard drive which was about to implode and that I shouldn't use it 'til I backed everything up. Of course it was the weekend and my tech guy was unavailable. I was just dust in the fan (which is what it sounded like in the first place!

3:04 am

rubyfoo

dust bunnies for Easter!

3:04 am

Sally-catlover

Goodness! What is the hairball sound? (and you go to the PB ruby!)

3:05 am

rubyfoo

sorry, I hadn't looked at the grid is ha8 a word? lol

3:06 am

rubyfoo

sounded like a cat choking

3:06 am

Sally-catlover

Not ha8! Look at the word I changed :-)

3:07 am

rubyfoo

I'll go to the pb anyway and "see" my other naughty friends. Maybe there's leftover chocolate and some much-needed coffee!!

3:07 am

Sally-catlover

Probably still some Easter eggs in there.

3:09 am

jillibus

night all -- *poof*

3:10 am

Sally-catlover

night jilli

3:10 am

Haz1558

Sleep well, jillibus.

3:10 am

rubyfoo

hello haz

3:11 am

Haz1558

Hello ruby, rainy here today.

3:11 am

rubyfoo

sunny and cold here but tulips and daffs are opening and primrose, so it's very pretty.

3:12 am

Haz1558

That's nice, I have high hopes for our camelias, lots of buds.

3:12 am

rubyfoo

I look to haz for my 2-day forecast!

3:13 am

Haz1558

The forecast is unsettled for the incoming week, although getting warmer towards the weekend.

3:14 am

rubyfoo

your forecast is always more accurate than the local one!

3:14 am

Haz1558

Thank the BBC!

3:15 am

rubyfoo

and no thanks Mt. Blanc!

3:16 am

Atalante

*pops in quickly* trying to decide where to walk the mutt. Husband should walk her really but he's asleep. I swear he has sleeping sickness

3:16 am

rubyfoo

like a marmot!

3:16 am

Haz1558

Good morning, Ata.

3:17 am

diann

good morning, how many words ared there today??

3:17 am

Atalante

marmots have sleeping sickness?

3:17 am

rubyfoo

256, diann

3:18 am

Haz1558

256 today.

3:18 am

rubyfoo

they just sleep 27 hrs a day

3:18 am

Atalante

yep, he's a marmot

3:18 am

rubyfoo

zeins

3:18 am

rubyfoo

sorry, blowing myself up!!!

3:18 am

Atalante

I met up with a friend yesterday who lives "near" you, Ruby. Near in the greater European sense, she lives in Neuchatel

3:19 am

rubyfoo

my neighbors daughter and sil teach at the university there

3:19 am

rubyfoo

it's about 2 hrs away

3:20 am

Atalante

well actually she lives in La Chaux-de-Fonds which might be even a bit nearer. I hope to visit her this summer, I'll have to pop in!

3:21 am

rubyfoo

that would be lovely!

3:21 am

Atalante

I somehow have lots of friends in Neucha / Lausanne area

3:22 am

rubyfoo

we go to Lausanne for doctors and good Italian food

3:22 am

Atalante

I love Lausanne. It's a great place. Ooops. Pup pesting level has turned up a notch. Be back after walk!

3:23 am

rubyfoo

see you!

3:23 am

Haz1558

See you later, Ata.

3:24 am

rubyfoo

I prefer Lausanne to Geneva; it's more of a "real" place

3:31 am

Andree

hi everyone

3:31 am

Andree

hope you all had a happy easter

3:31 am

Haz1558

Hello, Andree!

3:31 am

rubyfoo

hello andree

3:32 am

Haz1558

Yes, enjoyable family lunch yesterday. We had the emergency line over the weekend so it was a mixture of work and play.

3:33 am

Andree

i have been away staying with my sister , my brother in law had a 4 heart bypass out of intensive care today so i came home

3:33 am

Haz1558

Best wishes for his recovery, Andree.

3:34 am

rubyfoo

mine, too, it must be scary for your sister!

3:35 am

Sally-catlover

And mine Andree. My husband had triple bypass a year ago, and I know how your sister must feel.

3:36 am

rubyfoo

all thise talk of hearts -- ao5!

3:36 am

Andree

he is doing well now , still great pain, had a leg clot and had to be taken back to theatre, my sister now has a friend to stay, she lives more than an hour away and i had to get back for work tomorrow

3:36 am

Haz1558

And its latin plural, ruby.

3:36 am

Sally-catlover

lol, I hadn't noticed that yet ruby. ty

3:37 am

Sally-catlover

Oh!!! And PB ruby for he 5/12 :-)

3:37 am

rubyfoo

yes, saw that, too

3:38 am

rubyfoo

oh no, again!!! bad ruby

3:38 am

Sally-catlover

But there's also he 6/21 :-(

3:38 am

rubyfoo

I think we've guesses today's theme..... :(

3:38 am

rubyfoo

and its plural, sally

3:39 am

Sally-catlover

yes, have that too ruby

3:39 am

rubyfoo

this grid looked esy at first but it isn't!

3:40 am

Sally-catlover

I'm over half-way now, but may have to go and do something useful and come back.

3:40 am

Haz1558

It's a lovely grid, ruby,don't be discouraged.

3:41 am

rubyfoo

yesterday was the first time I missed since I started in Dec, but only 3 or 4 fireworks! :D

3:41 am

Haz1558

Yes, but think of the enjoyment you've had, and all the advice!

3:42 am

rubyfoo

especially the advice!!!!!

3:42 am

rubyfoo

and the laughs

3:42 am

Haz1558

Yes, the laughs are therapeutic.

3:43 am

rubyfoo

especially around here!

3:43 am

Sally-catlover

I used to feel that I /had/ to do the grid each day, and /had/ to finish, then I realised one night I was falling asleep over the keyboard, so I do it if I can, and I try to remember it's only a game, and if I can't do it because of time then <shrug>, so what. No kittens die as a result.

3:43 am

rubyfoo

good attitude! I've stopped looking at my ranking, once I realized that by not finishing it didn't matter how well I did

3:44 am

rubyfoo

but doing at least half of each grid is very therapeutic for me

3:44 am

Andree

i never worry any more, its just a game and we should all just enjoy what we can do and not fret over what we can't

3:44 am

Haz1558

There are only a few who are concerned with rankings.

3:44 am

rubyfoo

I think each of us gets something different from the game and chat!

3:44 am

Sally-catlover

And it does get easier, because you do learn words that pop up again and again. (like my favourite sr4)

3:45 am

rubyfoo

when I started at 260 I was horrified, but then I started to figure it out and now it doesn't matter

3:45 am

rubyfoo

(just put the monkeys to work on that Sally)

3:45 am

Haz1558

Yes, sr4, the backward knights.

3:46 am

Sally-catlover

the backward knights?

3:46 am

Haz1558

Look at the word....

3:46 am

Sally-catlover

Oh! lol

3:47 am

rubyfoo

in the Indian ocean?

3:47 am

Haz1558

I just think of gormless men in armour.

3:47 am

Sally-catlover

I was telling ruby that when I was visiting my grandson recently he has a play mat with the alphabet on the floor. I knew I was in trouble when I found myself looking at it and making babble words out of it:-)

3:47 am

rubyfoo

he'll learn to spell in anagrams!

3:48 am

Haz1558

My family don't believe half the words are real.

3:48 am

Sally-catlover

Well he will if he inherits my genes!

3:50 am

Andree

your family could be right haz

3:51 am

rubyfoo

it's like learning a new language

3:53 am

Haz1558

Okay, taking a break, I'll be back later.

3:53 am

Andree

bye haz

3:53 am

Haz1558

Bye for now..

3:53 am

rubyfoo

bye haz

3:53 am

Sally-catlover

bye Haz

3:53 am

Sally-catlover

Haz is in the grid today :-)

3:58 am

4:15 am

Good morning/afternoon/eveningg, everyone.

4:15 am

See, they misspell wods.

4:15 am

Christine

and words, even.

4:21 am

lynxxx

Hello everyone. Sally - that is so funny

4:22 am

Andree

hi lynxxx

4:22 am

Sally-catlover

hi lynxxx

4:22 am

lynxxx

hi Andree, how is everything up there

4:23 am

Christine

Goodnight, all.

4:23 am

lynxxx

goodnight Christine

4:24 am

Sally-catlover

night Christine

4:24 am

Andree

i have been on the central coast with my sister since wednesday, my b i l had a quadruple bypass , he was moved to the ward today and i had to come home for work tomorrow

4:26 am

lynxxx

That's an awful way to spend a break but good to hear he is on the mend.

4:30 am

Andree

easter thursday seems to be a bad day for our family , its 3 years on the same day since my other sister had her brain tumour removed

4:30 am

Andree

i am not destined to be enjoying the easter break

4:31 am

lynxxx

I remember that. It seems like yesterday. Time flies so fast as you get older

4:32 am

Andree

its started to grow back and she has just had 7 weeks of radiation

4:32 am

Sally-catlover

I'm so sorry about that Andreee. (((hugs)))

4:33 am

Andree

its benign sally so not too much of a worry

4:33 am

lynxxx

Oh no! I suppose it is too early to see if it has worked. Do they plan chemo/ops as well? I am so sorry Andree ((hugs))

4:35 am

Andree

no chemo for benign tumours, the radiation makes the tumour smaller and saves the prospect of more urgery

4:35 am

Sally-catlover

Eek! Just realised how many P words there are today. I'm sure there can't be that many in the dictionary.

4:36 am

lynxxx

Good to hear its benign. Still 7 weeks of radiation is fairly aggressive isn't it. Is she having any side effects from that?

4:37 am

Andree

not this time , she is fine and happy not to have surgery

4:44 am

Andree

i still need 26 p's, i suspect i won't get most of them until i put the list up

4:46 am

lynxxx

and I must be missing some sort of ending - I've only got 3 7's - and nothing bigger

4:48 am

Sally-catlover

There's an se 8/40 and plural which is a combination word, se 4/4+ a wet weather

4:48 am

Sally-catlover

or se 3 meaning ocean and a vehicle!

4:49 am

lynxxx

you are making me laugh Sally

4:50 am

Sally-catlover

good :-) Can't really see a common ending among the 7's I have.

4:50 am

Sally-catlover

Have you got the ve7 which is a game meat?

4:50 am

lynxxx

I found another couple of 7s in the v's

4:51 am

lynxxx

yes TY also another ve7.40

4:51 am

Sally-catlover

I have a ve 8 as well.

4:52 am

lynxxx

ooh must be my last v - TY

4:58 am

Andree

thx for these tips sally

4:59 am

Sally-catlover

np

5:01 am

Sally-catlover

Phew! Just got my last A word. 38 left :-(

5:03 am

Sally-catlover

Hint: lots of words to do with circulation of the blood today, and the organ which pumps it :-)

5:04 am

lynxxx

thanks Sally

5:06 am

Andree

there is also the drug used to thin the blood

5:07 am

Sally-catlover

Yes, just found that one Andree. There is certainly a theme here :-)

5:13 am

Andree

back in a bit

5:22 am

lynxxx

Taking a break too - hold the fort please Sally

5:23 am

Sally-catlover

OK! Sneaks into PB for remaining Easter eggs while no-one is looking and whistles nonchalantly, dribbling chocolate down her chin.

5:28 am

Soodle

Never underestimate the lurkers, Sally..........

5:28 am

Sally-catlover

Wipes face hurriedly. You were saying?

5:28 am

Soodle

They may be quiet, but they observe all..........

5:29 am

Sally-catlover

The spies are everywhere. I should have known when I saw the black helicopter hovering ...

5:29 am

KatieMcG

*scribbling a note to Haz about PB raiding*

5:30 am

kje

yes, I am willing to serve as a witness if needed... it was with malice and forethought

5:30 am

herinfernallady

Hello

5:30 am

Soodle

Ve haff vays of making you confess...

5:30 am

Sally-catlover

lol. I see the thought of stolen chocolate gets you out of the woodwork.

5:31 am

Sally-catlover

Oh, no! Not the chocolate thumbscrews again!

5:35 am

herinfernallady

err hello?

5:35 am

Soodle

Hi Herin. I am on guard-duty at the PB. There have been a few raids on the choclit....

5:35 am

KatieMcG

off to a model train show (please don't ask, it is a sign of love for my husband!) see you all later!

5:36 am

Sally-catlover

Bye Katie. Well, all that chocolate has helped my brain power and I now have fireworks. Yippee!!! Soodle can relax her guard as I must be off. Thanks for the laughs everyone.

5:37 am

KatieMcG

congrats sally

5:37 am

Sally-catlover

Enjoy the model trains :-)

5:37 am

Soodle

WD Sally

5:38 am

KatieMcG

ahhhh just realised it is a word, scooting off before sent to PB *poof*

5:38 am

Sally-catlover

I had to list at the end. Just too many words otherwise and real life intrudes.

5:40 am

Sally-catlover

Any clues needed before I poof?

5:41 am

Soodle

No thanks, Sally - I will trundle on.

5:41 am

Sally-catlover

Ok then, byeee all.

5:49 am

herinfernallady

ok my net company is offically not working right sigh

5:50 am

dromano66

can anyone give a clue for the pa9?

5:50 am

herinfernallady

Don't have it sorry

5:51 am

dromano66

ty anyway

5:55 am

sandy211

dromano - extend the pa4/5 above

5:56 am

herinfernallady

and my net is broken

5:58 am

Haz1558

pa9/60 - extend the one who overtakes (pa6/21) with the last three letters of the number before ten.

6:00 am

Soodle

Nice one, Haz - thank you

6:01 am

Haz1558

You're welcome. How's the toothache?

6:01 am

Soodle

I am absolutely murdered with it. Been up all night. Panadol extra has zero effect. (Not that I am moaning, or anything...)

6:02 am

Haz1558

Is it an abcess?

6:03 am

Soodle

Yup. My face is swollen, throbbing and very interesting looking....

6:03 am

Haz1558

And I take it no emergency dentist/pain clinic available?

6:04 am

Soodle

Not a hope. I will struggle on till tomorrow. My Granny was right. Be true to your teeth and they never will be false to you....LOL

6:05 am

Haz1558

That's a shame - my sympathies! If you presented yourself at casualty, what would they do?

6:05 am

Soodle

They would charge me â‚¬75, and tell me to see a dentist tomorrow!!

6:06 am

Haz1558

That's not a plan. You should live up north!

6:06 am

Soodle

Tell me about it.... This country is gone to hell in a handcart....

6:08 am

Haz1558

We're hardly a shining example either, but we do have dental pain clinics. I hope you get some relief at some stage.

6:08 am

Soodle

Thanks Haz.

6:15 am

Haz1558

Right, back to the housework for another while. I'm adopting the fresh eyes see fresh words approach. Back later.

6:26 am

herinfernallady

SOrry to hear your owies Soodle.

Hi there Haz! and Volley.

9:36 am

Haz1558

Hello, Volley and FM.

9:36 am

VolleymomDee

hi fm!

9:37 am

FMitch

Hi Volley, nice to see you.
Did you ahve a good day yesterday Haz?

9:37 am

VolleymomDee

is periwinkle still here?

9:37 am

Haz1558

I did indeed, thanks, FM. How about you, did the travel arrangements work okay?

9:38 am

FMitch

Everything went perfectly, was a lovely time :)

9:38 am

Haz1558

That's great! Did they like your new abode?

9:39 am

FMitch

Mum who said don't cook too much managed to eat a 3 course meal and enjoy 2 glasses of bubbly and Step dad ate with gusto too. Yes they love the house.

9:39 am

Haz1558

I'm glad it all went so well and it's so much nicer when people eat with enthusiasm instead of picking over their food.

9:40 am

Haz1558

You could probably tell that Mr Haz is not a picky eater.

9:40 am

FMitch

LOL, how could he be with your wonderful cookery!

9:41 am

Haz1558

Oh, he was well brought up - his father led by example.

9:41 am

FMitch

Anyway he needs to keep his strenght up for his vetinary skills ;)

9:41 am

Haz1558

Yes, he's working today again.

9:41 am

Aloyisius

Happy day after Easter, Babblers.. (-:

9:41 am

Vicuna

Hello, all!

9:42 am

FMitch

Greetings Aloy!!!!! and Vi tooo how lovely :)

9:42 am

VolleymomDee

hi aloy, vic

9:42 am

Haz1558

We had the phone over the weekend. The funniest phone call was the old lady who had previously worried about giving her cat shingles. This time it was to ask whether she should give it an egg. It had already had one egg this week. I said no. (Hard-hearted or what?)

9:42 am

Haz1558

Hello Vi and Aloy, nice to see you both!

9:42 am

EvaNadine

mornin babblers!

9:43 am

FMitch

Do cats eat eggs? Never heard of such a thing.

9:43 am

Haz1558

Hello EvaN - they're all gathering in.

9:43 am

Aloyisius

enjoying a "bouquet" of babble icons

9:43 am

Vicuna

Do eggs give shingles?

9:43 am

VolleymomDee

no, chicken pox give shingles (same virus)

9:43 am

FMitch

All of these questions will be answered on the next episode, to stay tuned :))

9:43 am

Haz1558

Apparently this one loves eggs - didn't ask whether it was boiled, scrambled or what, but I thought it better not to risk anything. She just likes a chat, I think.

9:44 am

FMitch

phone brb

9:45 am

Haz1558

What of the Twins of Glory, Vi?

9:45 am

Vicuna

If chicken pox give shingles, then maybe chicken eggs do too.

9:45 am

Vicuna

Glorious, Haz, thanks. =D

9:46 am

Haz1558

Maybe they do, VI. This old lady is a frequent caller - she's besotted with her cat, lives alone and worries about every little thing. She had shingles herself and was afraid she was going to give it to the cat, but she was reassured on that point.

9:47 am

Vicuna

You need to hook this woman up with another of your frequent callers so they can chat amongst themselves.

9:48 am

Haz1558

A kind of support group?

9:48 am

VolleymomDee

fireworks! Now I have to do chores :(

9:48 am

Haz1558

Well done, Volley!

9:48 am

Aloyisius

congratulations, Volley, wtg!!!!

9:48 am

VolleymomDee

ty!

9:48 am

FMitch

Congrats Volley!!

9:48 am

VolleymomDee

glad to have lickety for this one

9:49 am

Vicuna

Yay for VolleymonDee! ... or maybe not yay if chores ensue.

9:49 am

FMitch

T'was Mum on the phone with more plating suggestions :)

9:49 am

VolleymomDee

hope you all have a great day!!! *poofing with hugs*

9:49 am

Haz1558

Bye, Volley!

9:49 am

VolleymomDee

lol I'll save a yay for after chores lol

9:49 am

FMitch

or planting even!

9:49 am

Aloyisius

ah, for your garden.. how is it coming along, FM?

9:49 am

Vicuna

As in silverplating, or as in arranging food on a plate?

9:49 am

Vicuna

Oooh, not plating at all. lol

9:50 am

Haz1558

I wondered - I was trying to think what you were going to get silver plated.

9:50 am

FMitch

There is much burgeoning going on :)

9:50 am

Vicuna

Oh, here, too. I love just going around and seeing what's sprouting now!

9:50 am

Vicuna

It's utterly luscious.

9:51 am

FMitch

She brought over 3 pots of cyclamen so I will plant them under the hedge as they love the shady side of a garden.

9:51 am

Aloyisius

so lovely!

9:51 am

Vicuna

Lovely.

9:51 am

Haz1558

Do you know what colours yet?

9:52 am

FMitch

She has a huge patch of them in her garden so had got the gardener to dig some up for me. Umm eith er purple or white.

9:52 am

Aloyisius

it will be a surprise

9:53 am

Vicuna

The white are my favorite. I have a few and they are spreading [very] slowly.

9:53 am

Aloyisius

are they hardy over the winter?

9:54 am

FMitch

Yes the are Aloy.

9:54 am

Vicuna

Florist cyclamen are not hardy here, but there are hardy ones.

9:54 am

Aloyisius

ooh.. taking notes

9:54 am

Haz1558

They're such delicate looking flowers that they don't look as though they should be, but miraculously they are.

9:56 am

FMitch

The sun has finally decided to show its face, yay!

9:57 am

Uneaixoise

i have hardy cyclamen!! They really ARE hardy and they spread :-)

9:57 am

FMitch

Hi there Une!

9:57 am

Vicuna

Hello, Une.

9:57 am

Uneaixoise

hey, fmitch :-)

9:57 am

Haz1558

I know! We started off the day with rain, but the wind has got rid of the clouds and we have sun as well. A great drying day for laundry!

9:57 am

Haz1558

Hello, Une.

9:58 am

Uneaixoise

hey, haz, check out latest pic of my mom's senior springer -- looking good, eh?!

9:58 am

Uneaixoise

howdy, vi :-)

9:59 am

FMitch

Haz did I tell you that I have decided to remew the lease for another 12 months and the landlady has given the go ahead for me to plant the garden as I wish?

9:59 am

Haz1558

She certainly is - how old is Derby?

9:59 am

Uneaixoise

"he" . . . I think he's 11 now

9:59 am

Haz1558

That's great news, FM, you're putting down roots, literally.

9:59 am

Aloyisius

Hi Une! Haz, I have a load of laundry started with just that intention.. using Mother Nature for the "dry cycle"

9:59 am

Vicuna

Oh, that's fun, FM!

9:59 am

Uneaixoise

cool, fmitch!

9:59 am

Haz1558

He - I realised afterward that it was probably he.

9:59 am

Uneaixoise

howdy, aloy!!

9:59 am

FMitch

Lovely pic Une.

10:00 am

Haz1558

There's nothing like laundry dried outside. I've even got mine ironed already.

10:01 am

Aloyisius

ironed? newbie for me, lol

10:01 am

Vicuna

My laundry line broke. I've got to get it fixed in time to take advantage of the good drying weather we have here. (Sigh. One more chore.)

10:01 am

FMitch

Doffs hat to Haz's domestic skills. I have my cleaning lady coming in the morning *grin*

10:01 am

Aloyisius

my line is strung between two palm trees

10:02 am

Aloyisius

Aloy turns green with envy reading FM's post

10:02 am

FMitch

How exotic drying yr laundry between 2 palm trees!

10:02 am

Aloyisius

phantom: hosier

10:02 am

Vicuna

I hope you left room for your hammock between two palm trees!

10:03 am

Vicuna

Phantom passion. Sounds so sad. ;)

10:03 am

FMitch

Oh now that is a much beter use of 2 palm trees Vi, good thinking! Break out the cabana boys!

10:03 am

Aloyisius

Vicuna, I am using the hammock on my lanai table.. it is very colorful and makes a lovely cover

10:04 am

Vicuna

ANd better for backs that need firm support? lol

10:04 am

Aloyisius

lol.. very firm!

10:05 am

FMitch

Vi love your icon, simple but effective - one of your creations I presume?

10:05 am

Aloyisius

daughter and s-i-l had a very scary encounter with a huge diamond back rattler on a trail in AZ day before yesterday.. 2 feet away

10:06 am

Vicuna

Yes, it is. But I was just thinking how much nicer your colored version is!

10:06 am

FMitch

Eeek Aloy!

10:07 am

Vicuna

Yikes, Aloy! Rattlers are definitely best enjoyed from a distance!

10:07 am

Aloyisius

this one gave off a very loud rattle, making them both jump out of harm's way, fortunately

10:08 am

FMitch

Am glad that I live in England

10:08 am

Haz1558

No snakes at all on this side of the water!

10:09 am

Vicuna

It's quite civil of rattlesnakes to warn us, though.

10:09 am

Aloyisius

daughter stayed behind to keep an eye on Mr. Rattler (so she could warn their friends who were behind them) while s-i-l hiked ahead as they had to pick up the pooches from their "day spa"

10:09 am

Haz1558

Who's going to ask? Day spa? For dogs?

10:10 am

FMitch

Thatns to Saint 'whathisname' Haz?

10:10 am

Aloyisius

I saw a timber rattler hiking in CA, but nowhere near the size of the one they encountered... lol, Haz.. yes, they have day spas for dogs..

10:10 am

hurshy

none at ALL? then why did i read about one in 'talboys'?

10:10 am

FMitch

I was but you did it for me, thanks :)

10:10 am

hurshy

you just mean no deadly ones, right?

10:10 am

Vicuna

No snakes at all in Ireland.

10:10 am

FMitch

Hi hurshy

10:10 am

Haz1558

Patrick. Ordered them out. We haven't even got adders or grass snakes.

10:10 am

Aloyisius

nicer than "kennels" for boarding.. they exercise them and pamper them.. hi hurshy

10:11 am

Vicuna

Hi, hurshy.

10:11 am

Haz1558

So, in reality, Spangle and Hobbit live in day spas, except that they don't really know it.

10:11 am

hurshy

patrick... ordered... them... out... ???

10:11 am

Boobear

hi all

10:12 am

Aloyisius

exactly, Haz

10:12 am

FMitch

So the legend goes hursh

10:12 am

Aloyisius

hi Boobear!

10:12 am

Haz1558

Clearly you're not up to date with your St Patrick stories, hurshy.

10:12 am

hurshy

hi vi, hi haz, fm, alo, boobear

10:12 am

FMitch

Hi Boo.

10:12 am

hurshy

ok, so none in ireland, but what about england?

10:13 am

FMitch

The adder is the most we have to worry about.

10:13 am

Vicuna

When I was a kid living in Ireland for a year my class painted a mural of a woodland scene on the school wall. Naturally I put in a snake in addition to the various birds, foxes, squirrels, etc... It was only much later that I realized how bizarre the other kids must have thought that.

10:13 am

Haz1558

They probably thought you had got the perspective wrong for a worm.

10:13 am

Haz1558

Or is it proportion?

10:13 am

FMitch

lol Vi

10:14 am

Haz1558

Whereabouts did you live in Ireland, Vi?

10:14 am

hurshy

so ireland is where i should live, then

10:14 am

Vicuna

Galway

10:14 am

Aloyisius

we have lots and lots of snakes.. most of them are "friends", like the black racer... except when it sneaks in the house

10:14 am

hurshy

*shudder*

10:14 am

Vicuna

Spent a summer in Northern Ireland during college, though.

10:14 am

Haz1558

It's pretty scenic in Galway, isn't it?

10:14 am

Vicuna

I like snakes, except, of course, poisonous ones at close range.

10:15 am

Aloyisius

it was under my computer bag in the den... I think they heard me all the way north when I discovered it

10:15 am

hurshy

i don't like any of them at any range whatsoever

10:15 am

Haz1558

Really? Whereabouts in NI? We may have passed each other and not known.

10:15 am

hurshy

i have trouble even dealing with pics of them

10:15 am

Uneaixoise

(sorry if i missed any comments or questions -- phone call!)

10:16 am

Haz1558

I'm with you on that one, hurshy. I'm really not keen at all.

10:16 am

Vicuna

The Burren is just amazing, like another world. ANd of course the castles scattered about with reckless abandon is a dream come true for any fantasy-loving US-ian.

10:16 am

hurshy

even the WORD bothers me. i call them BCs instead. (bad creatures)

10:16 am

Vicuna

Well, we started up in Belfast, but spent most of the time in Newcastle. I was working with the Ulster Quaker Service Committee.

10:16 am

Haz1558

But that's the thing, we get complacent about our castles.

10:17 am

Haz1558

Newcastle and the Mournes are very scenic as well.

10:17 am

Vicuna

That would have been the summer of 1989, I think.

10:17 am

Uneaixoise

complacent about castles! oh, my ! LOL

10:17 am

Aloyisius

daughter will be in Ireland this summer, must ask her for details as to location

10:17 am

hurshy

is there a newcastle in ireland or do you mean the one in england by the border of scotland?

10:17 am

Haz1558

I grew up three miles from Carrickfergus - the castle there is 12th century and it was only as I grew up that I started to realised that it's quite something to have something that old.

10:18 am

Haz1558

There's a Newcastle in County Down in Northern IReland as well as Newcastle upon Tyne.

10:18 am

Vicuna

I absolutely love the landscape and history there.

10:18 am

Vicuna

There's also a Newcastle suburb of Galway, which is actually where we lived there, funnily enough.

10:19 am

hurshy

newnewcastle, newnewnewcastle...

10:19 am

Haz1558

1989 - trying to remember what I was doing in 1989. Being a young mother, mostly.

10:19 am

Vicuna

Lots and lots of castles - quite a few of them are bound to be "new"! lol

10:20 am

Haz1558

I think we were complacent about them because we didn't realise that other people didn't have them - or at least people from the States etc.

10:20 am

Vicuna

People always take their own treasures for granted, I'm afraid.

10:21 am

Vicuna

Environmental as well as historical, unfortunately.

10:21 am

hurshy

so tweazhuh youw wuv...

10:22 am

Hello, red. Are they done online?

hurshy

of course she is, she's the Queen of the World!

10:44 am

Haz1558

I've always hoped that i was your favourite.

10:45 am

Haz1558

But I've seen you saying the same thing to other girls when they give you clues. But maybe you didn't mean it for them.

10:45 am

Haz1558

I can see that you're writing with sincerity font this time.

10:46 am

flosey

good morning everyone

10:46 am

Haz1558

And is the bacon maple cure? That's my favourite.

10:46 am

Haz1558

Good morning, flosey.

10:46 am

Aloyisius

hi flosey!

10:46 am

flosey

hi Aloy

10:47 am

flosey

Haz, remember that old..........when I'm not with the one I love, I .................

10:47 am

crosshair

of course,hickory smoked and maple cured..there no other kind for crossy:)\

10:48 am

Haz1558

I've just googled it, flosey!

10:48 am

flosey

ah, you didn't remember it! don't remember who sang it

10:48 am

harpjane

hello

10:49 am

flosey

10:49 am

Aloyisius

hi harpjane

10:49 am

Haz1558

When I'm not ne4/4 the girl I love the girl I'm ne4/4. From Finian's rainbow.

10:49 am

flosey

ah, that's it

10:49 am

Haz1558

Not ne4/4 the girl I love, I love the girl I'm ne4/4.

10:49 am

Riverdance

brings te4/4 to my eye

10:50 am

Haz1558

Just be glad it's not Vicuna singing it.

10:50 am

Haz1558

A lovely girl, a fine babbler, but not a note in her head.

10:51 am

flosey

lol, poor Vicuna

10:51 am

flosey

hubby is that way!

10:52 am

crosshair

lol,i can talk the birds down from the trees if needed,but alas my singing sounds like golf balls rolling around the bottom of a dust bin:/

10:52 am

Haz1558

But does he know it himself? Vicuna can't be persuaded that she's not worthy of singing operatic ar5/10.

10:53 am

Riverdance

Im sure Mrs Crossy loves you anyway

10:53 am

harpjane

what's the letter count on the top O? please?

10:53 am

crosshair

she is the one i talked down from the trees for my very own;)))))

10:53 am

hurshy

10:53 am

Kateq

one four letter word

10:53 am

Haz1558

It's funny, our older daughter was always able to sing perfectly in tune, right from she was very young. We didn't realise that this was unusual until we attended her first school concert and heard this cacaphony of noise from the other children.

10:54 am

harpjane

thanks

10:57 am

Aloyisius

enjoyed the company.. fireworks send me to the clothesline.. (-: bye Babblers, see you next grid.

10:57 am

flosey

lol Haz, all kids love to sing, seems they're unable to hear that they could be off key, they just sing their little hearts out

10:57 am

Riverdance

congrat aloy

10:57 am

Haz1558

Bye, Aloy, happy drying.

10:58 am

hurshy

being an administrative assistant... the buck doesn't stop here, which is nice, but when someone needs information urgently that i do not have, it is not so nice

10:58 am

flosey

ooh, tks for reminder to look at clock, have to leave in 1/2 hr. for an hour of pool exercises

10:58 am

Haz1558

I know, flosey, but it was noticeable that as they got older the tune became more prominent.

10:58 am

flosey

oh, ouch

10:58 am

Haz1558

Are you under pressure today, hurshy?

11:02 am

crosshair

common flosey,you are busted,but i have scrabbled eggs with cheese and bacon in the pb

11:02 am

flosey

lol, wondered when someone would pick that up - and in uppercase too!

11:02 am

flosey

breakfast sounds wonderful Crossy

11:03 am

flosey

can I ask for a clue from the PB?

11:03 am

Haz1558

Of course.

11:03 am

flosey

can't find the last te6

11:03 am

hurshy

well, apparently there is some question about money that was donated to the med school by a certain corporation. we also received a grant from this corporation, and our legal dept and public relations and so forth want some info about that so they can respond to media inquiries.

11:04 am

Haz1558

te6/24 - same structure as se6/24 - looking like the start of a heavenly creature.

11:04 am

Haz1558

Or te plus Mr Nader minus an L.

11:04 am

hurshy

it's annoying, cause it's really nothing to do with us, but everybody wants an answer right away, and people are out at meetings and stuff

11:05 am

crosshair

thats why when i donate,i do not let the left hand know what the right is doing.when donations become a chore,the big boys will back out:(

11:05 am

flosey

thanks Haz, that's it

11:05 am

Haz1558

And they can't just tell the media 'No comment' I suppose.

11:05 am

crosshair

poor hurshy

11:05 am

flosey

oops, no, had that, there's another one after it

11:05 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, flosey, glad you got it.

11:05 am

hurshy

well, they can do whatever they want - only it's not my place to suggest that to them!

11:06 am

Haz1558

There's te6/18 before it, looks like a plural for preceding te5/10. (te plus three letters of precipitation)

11:07 am

flosey

yes, missed your first clue, sorry, things moving too fast for these old eyes

11:07 am

Haz1558

No problem.

11:08 am

crosshair

we have a huge philantropist(sp) by the name of peter munk he has given millions and millions to our hospitals and all you see of him is a teeny tiny plaque buried in some corner

11:10 am

Haz1558

He's obviously giving for the joy of knowing that the money makes a difference than for anything else. Good for him.

11:10 am

crosshair

indeed

11:11 am

crosshair

one thing i did find out was he outfitted an entire prenatal wing with all the hardware and the cost of installation..just when you think the big cats are tightwads lol

11:12 am

flosey

49 to go, have to get ready now, bbl

11:12 am

crosshair

tc flosey

11:12 am

Haz1558

See you later, flosey.

11:12 am

flosey

how fortunate you are there crossy, to have such a well equipped facility

11:13 am

Riverdance

bye flosey - enjoy your swimming

11:13 am

Haz1558

Many cancer charities do depend on the generosity of the corporate donations, but there's always the knowledge that they want some publicity out of it.

11:14 am

Haz1558

It's unusual to have a no-strings attached donation like that, but it's great that there are still people like that around.

11:16 am

crosshair

indeed it is:) makes one feel better bout the world;)

11:17 am

Haz1558

OKay, I must shift myself and the hound to get a bit of exercise and fresh air. Enjoy the rest of the day and this very nice grid. Bye for now!

12:53 pm

Riverdance

chocolate is a gift from the gods

12:54 pm

Nancy Boy

chocolate is part of an intricate calorie allowance that I prefer to substitute with alchohol ;)

12:54 pm

welki

i don't care who gives chocolate to me :)

12:54 pm

Riverdance

Hi Nancy Boy - they go so well together too

12:54 pm

Nancy Boy

*alcohol

12:54 pm

Nancy Boy

typing on my phone - break at work!

12:54 pm

hootowl

when I was a kid I gave it up for lent and never went back. I do eat an occasional candy bar but prefer peeps - just sugar!

12:54 pm

welki

<-- makes a chocolate martini with a wee bit of espresso flavoring

12:55 pm

Riverdance

ohhh welki - yum

12:55 pm

welki

expensive to make, but worth it

12:55 pm

hootowl

now alcohol is something I can enjoy. Except rye and gin which I am allergic to!

12:56 pm

Nancy Boy

ughhhh...can't stand ANY coffee flavoured things at all. Including coffee!

12:56 pm

hootowl

Took a few headaches to figure that one out

12:56 pm

welki

fine .. will leave the espresso out of the equation

12:56 pm

Riverdance

we just had chocolat martinis on girls weekend.

12:56 pm

hootowl

like coffee and tea

12:56 pm

Riverdance

what is your drink preference Nancy

12:56 pm

Nancy Boy

much better ;) keep talking about nice drinks, though. I've been pulling pints of beer for old men all afternoon.

12:57 pm

Nancy Boy

I'm very partial to mojitos, Mom, but will generally consume any kind of spirit + mixer combo. Can't stand beer!

12:58 pm

Riverdance

well what else do those old men have to do - I'm waiting to get out of work for my nicely chilled chardonnay. Im not a beer lover either

12:58 pm

hootowl

I used to make my own beer in NY. Afraid to try here cause the water is so different

12:59 pm

Nancy Boy

oops...break over, now back to pulling pints of beer for aforementioned old men, and contending their disapproving glances at my flamboyancy ;) later all!

12:59 pm

hootowl

Can't drink wine. Too bitter. And I sometimes get headaches. A sweet or semi-sweet can do.

12:59 pm

Riverdance

I just made my own wine - waiting for it to age properly age - getting tough looking at those pretty bottles

1:00 pm

Riverdance

watch out for those old men Nancy

1:00 pm

hootowl

oh Nancy be as flamboyant as you like.

1:05 pm

Soodle

Doh boo> Use your snake letter....

1:05 pm

welki

a commoner

1:06 pm

hootowl

a song of praise - lots of vowels in the center

1:07 pm

welki

well boyhowdy, i learn something new every day .. thought it was just a fancy schmancy way of spelling that commoner/laborer word .. thanks, hoot!

1:08 pm

Vicuna

Heh, actually, it isn't the song of praise, either. That has diff. final vowel. This one is some metrical thing.

1:08 pm

Vicuna

Just looked it up.

1:08 pm

hootowl

ok - I wondered where you got that from. yw

1:09 pm

Vicuna

Hello, again, folks.

1:09 pm

hootowl

ok Vi - then where did I get that idea from?

1:10 pm

Vicuna

Because the song of praise is exactly same except a diff final vowel. I thought ti was an alt spelling myself, which is why I just looked it up!

1:10 pm

welki

BUT, the more important question is: Did Boo get the word?

1:10 pm

hootowl

aah - i get it - tx

1:11 pm

hootowl

boo - where are you?

1:11 pm

Vicuna

Poor Boo is singing metrical songs of praise to serfs!

Anniebrook

Except for typing them back in does anyone know how I can fix this?

1:25 pm

only bad thing about this 5 day weekend i've had is that today's the last day of it and back to the tar pits tomorrow

1:29 pm

Anniebrook

It is a program that Lickety set up. Equity (bless her) sent it to me and my daughter (bless her too) did whatever you do to get it going. You can tell I know absolutely nothing about computers.

1:30 pm

welki

you need to ask lickety to send you the link, mom. i was scolded for giving out the url

1:30 pm

Bugsaw

I couldn't agree more welki

1:30 pm

EvaNadine

Hip-Hip HOORAY!!
i have finally been approved for the training that i have been trying to get for about 10 months!!

1:30 pm

welki

(not that a good spanking isn't in order every now and again *LOLOL*)

1:30 pm

Bugsaw

about the holiday and work, not the scolding!

1:31 pm

Bugsaw

YAY for EvaNadine

1:31 pm

welki

i could really get used to staying at home, bugs ... really

1:31 pm

welki

wtg evanadine!

1:31 pm

Anniebrook

good for you EvaN

1:32 pm

Bugsaw

1:32 pm

EvaNadine

i start tomorrow + training lasts for the rest of the week. if i pass the test at the end, i will receive my certification!

1:33 pm

welki

were you able to get an estimate?

1:33 pm

Riverdance

excellent Eva

1:33 pm

hootowl

Happy for you. What is the training?

1:33 pm

Bugsaw

Not yet but I have all the forms to fill out

1:34 pm

EvaNadine

Software Tester Certification training

1:34 pm

welki

are you close to retirement age ... or willing to take the (very severe) cut to benefits in exchange for early retirement?

1:34 pm

hootowl

aah that sounds good

1:35 pm

EvaNadine

im sure it will fun times...hehe

1:35 pm

Bugsaw

I am 59 now but my husband is 67. If I wait until I am 65, we may not ever have any time together and I might regret that more. Just gathering all the info

1:36 pm

welki

you'll have to wait until you turn 60, but it sounds like a plan, bugs

1:36 pm

Riverdance

good for you bugs - life is too short - enjoy your time together while you can

1:37 pm

welki

carpe diem, folks

1:37 pm

Bugsaw

but you have to apply 6 months before you turn 60

1:37 pm

Boobear

clue for ph4/6

1:37 pm

hootowl

if you have the 5 lose the last letter

1:38 pm

welki

if you can, then do it ... like mom said, enjoy your time together. we've all heard the stories, the woulda, shoulda, couldas

1:38 pm

Riverdance

p + pooh likes his ***ey

1:39 pm

Bugsaw

my older sister was advised to take it at 60 and invest the payments even while she worked because, if she did it right, she would make more from her investment than the larger pension would be

1:40 pm

Riverdance

my folks were lucky enough to retire in their late 50's and had 15 years together before my dad passed when he was 70. They expected more but at least had all that time to travel and enjoy each other.

1:40 pm

crosshair

indeed,bugs,live smaller if needed but enjoy time with each other

1:40 pm

crosshair

money is useless when your dead

1:40 pm

1:41 pm

J. C.

1:41 pm

welki

i thought that your CPP is based on earnings .. either while working or saved/retirement pension earnings .. so, if you're working and collecting, how could that work out?

1:41 pm

Bugsaw

I agree crossy. Life is such a gamble

1:41 pm

stephie86

thank you

1:41 pm

crosshair

wife and i live much smaller now than before and we never regret it

1:42 pm

crosshair

i was making 65g,s in the city but up north i make around 30..but live better

1:42 pm

hootowl

I am taking a break - bbl - good luck everyone

1:43 pm

welki

did you have enough savings to see you through the transition portion of changing lifestyles?

1:43 pm

welki

because we've talked about it, too ... but worry what might happen if we think we might be able to live on less and find out that we made a boo-boo

1:43 pm

crosshair

just enough,but by the time we got rid of the high end toys,there was more than enough

1:44 pm

crosshair

its amazing what you think you need,and what you really need

1:44 pm

welki

*rolls eyes because she so knows about those high end toys*

1:44 pm

Nancy Boy

back on break. again. cause someone spilled beer on me *cross*

1:45 pm

crosshair

like that bmw that was 65 thousand and a ton to insure,i now drive a toyota echo and save thousands a year

1:45 pm

crosshair

poor nb

1:45 pm

Bugsaw

I have been saving for my "old age" since forever but I don't know when old age starts and I can start spending some.

1:45 pm

welki

would love to live on a lake, no neighbors within earshot, back east ... ahhhhh

1:45 pm

Nancy Boy

I smell like a brewery crossy! and can't type with much accuracy on this mobile phone

1:46 pm

J. C.

Hello NB. :)

1:46 pm

Riverdance

but I'm sure you still look good nancy

1:46 pm

J. C.

MSN?

1:46 pm

welki

yeah, we have the vehicles, the rvs, the whole magillah ... but we didn't have them when we were young (there's that sense of entitlement rearing its head *lol*)

1:46 pm

Bugsaw

I am thinking I should travel now while I have the opportunity to without high insurance for health problems and then have the memories in old age

1:46 pm

J. C.

And welki...

1:46 pm

Nancy Boy

JC! Caught me for another 15 minutes - don't have the typing speed for msn! I'm typing via the mobile at work :)

1:47 pm

welki

yes, jc?

1:47 pm

J. C.

Ah. I gathered that after I said it.

1:47 pm

J. C.

Was saying hi, welki - been a while.

1:47 pm

welki

yes, it's been about 24 hours since we last said hello *lol*

1:48 pm

Nancy Boy

Is that Albie?

1:48 pm

welki

albie must be all grown now

1:48 pm

J. C.

Yes. He is a year now - tempus fugit.

1:48 pm

crosshair

a good example is when we do replace furniture we go to the antique shoppes instead of new..my computer is on a 1920,2 roll top desk.the lock is broken on it and someone tried to paint it in the past,so i got it for 45 dollars.i stripped it down to bare maple,rubbed murphys oil soap into it and it is a thing of beauty

1:49 pm

Riverdance

they are better pieces than new any day

1:49 pm

J. C.

Hmmm. I didn't say hello 24 hours ago, welki? Or did I?

1:50 pm

J. C.

I was here very briefly...

1:50 pm

J. C.

Didn't finish the grid. No time.

1:50 pm

welki

for us, it's simply frightening to consider leaving our jobs and home with the hopes of being able to find a reasonably priced home and reasonably paid jobs in an area that would suit our needs

1:50 pm

crosshair

it is a gamble to be sure

1:50 pm

welki

j.c., we chatted for a couple of minutes

1:50 pm

J. C.

Goodness, did we? Must be losing my mind. :P

1:51 pm

J. C.

Sorry...my mind's on a lot right now.

1:51 pm

welki

you were chatting with NB, too

1:51 pm

Nancy Boy

well who could forget that ;)

1:51 pm

Bugsaw

housing is very cheap in the maritimes welki but it is very cold so your heating expenses would be increased.

1:51 pm

crosshair

i was doing courrier for a big phone company in the city and on my way to my first heart attack,i dumped it all moved north and now run a service station for half my old pay

1:51 pm

J. C.

Could be. Probably with a few more, here and there.

1:52 pm

welki

how'd you find your new neighborhood? job? hit and hope?

1:52 pm

Bugsaw

absolutely crossy, do what makes you happy, not what makes the most $

1:52 pm

crosshair

sold the beemer as we left the city,rented a u-haul for our irreplacable things.then set up house 300 miles north

1:53 pm

crosshair

yes,hit and hope

1:53 pm

crosshair

find the area you love first,then the job

1:53 pm

welki

bugs, i've researched n.s. extensively and you're 100% right .. and it's unlikely that jobs will be handed over to newcomers when oldtimers are also looking for work

1:54 pm

Bugsaw

yes but if you want to retire there and live off the income you saved from where you are now, it could still be worth it

1:54 pm

Bugsaw

it does look beautiful tho

1:54 pm

Nancy Boy

omg crossy...reminds me of the summer spent in korea working as an escort.

1:55 pm

welki

we considered buying a place now, but i'm a little squirrely about having renters in "my" house

1:55 pm

crosshair

one of my key ploys in filling out a resume and job hunting is that in the resume i put this.."i offer any prospective employer 5 free hours of work at no cost or obligation to either party to determine if we are suitable for each other"

1:55 pm

J. C.

You were an escort, NB?!

1:55 pm

crosshair

it has worked twice so far

1:56 pm

Bugsaw

I agree crossy. I did that once and it paid off

1:56 pm

welki

but --- there has to be work available if you want your resume to be read. (and for me, i'm looking to get a job that doesn't require much of a resume. if i move, i'm done with my "career," i want to go fishing first and work second :)

1:57 pm

crosshair

i got that hint from a book written in the 30,s during the depression

1:57 pm

Bugsaw

Nancy what did your father think you were doing there?

1:57 pm

Nancy Boy

Never again. Yep. I worked in the korean version - not the same as western! basically, you get paid to sit around and have a few drinks with people. thought it would be fun - wasn't!

1:58 pm

J. C.

Ah. A little relieved - that it doesn't mean the same as it does here. ;)

1:58 pm

welki

i interview well, have had no problem obtaining the jobs i've applied for .. but again, there has to be some work available, and enough for both the people who already live in the area and folks like me, newbies

1:58 pm

Nancy Boy

it was very appearance-orientated - you had to look perfect every evening, and be the complete life and soul. Plus, a lot of the women thought I was 'for hire'

1:58 pm

Nancy Boy

oh no JC! thought I should clarify ;)

1:59 pm

J. C.

Or they hoped you were. ;)

1:59 pm

J. C.

And yes, a little clarification is a fine thing. Sometimes. ;)

1:59 pm

Phoenixbaby

Crossy--that's a great idea.. I might try that

2:00 pm

crosshair

i thought of escorting in my youth..but having to carry around all that change for 5 dollar bills got tiring ...hehe

2:00 pm

welki

anyway, i think Bugs should consider retiring early to have some time for the fun things she should be doing :)

2:00 pm

J. C.

Other times, keep them wondering - works for me.

2:00 pm

J. C.

HAHAHA, crosshair!

2:00 pm

Nancy Boy

it's a completely different world - escort bars prefer femme guys because they're less threatening. but I had to be very polite to a lot of horrible people, in a language I barely knew ;)

2:00 pm

crosshair

:)

2:00 pm

welki

i know what you mean, crossy. my husband said, "$38.25? Who gave you the friggin' quarter?!" ... and i said, "They all did."

2:01 pm

crosshair

LOL

2:01 pm

Bugsaw

I don't usually interview well welki. I get too nervous and sound absolutely stupid. So I finally said, "I wouldn't hire me either based on the way I sound, but I know I can do what you want the way you want it done, so how about giving me a day without pay to show you what I can do." They took me on and I never looked back.

2:01 pm

crosshair

it does work

2:01 pm

Nancy Boy

LOL Crossy - I used to get home exhausted from dancing with them all! basically, you do anything they want. scary.

2:01 pm

Riverdance

You seem way to young Nancy to have done that

2:01 pm

welki

wow, bugs .. that took some major league cajones to make that challenge to them!

2:02 pm

Bugsaw

thanks for the vote welki! I am recording it on the + side

2:03 pm

Nancy Boy

right, break is over - Mom, I was 18 ;) anyway, bbl!

2:03 pm

7:14 pm

7:15 pm

7:16 pm

Jacula

Sorry, can't spell tonight, so I shouldn't make fun of others. I'm tirdof word tornado on FB, where I've only met one person in a game willing to chat.

7:17 pm

LuvWordGames

don't worry Jacula it was a cute joke

7:17 pm

redturtlehead

i have never played word tornado. is it good?

7:17 pm

crosshair

babble is much more than just a word hunt;)

7:18 pm

redturtlehead

true cross, I really have been amazed at how great we babblers are. When I was on assignment in New Meixco I was miserable and the babblers kept me going!

7:18 pm

Jacula

It's a good game once you get the hang of it, but I think they're a bit cliquey in there. Maybe same could be said of us, up to a point.

7:19 pm

redturtlehead

no, we are pretty friendly. THough there are a few who irritate the bejezus out of me....some may saythat of me too!

7:20 pm

crosshair

im sure ive rubbed some peoples fur the wrong way also;)

7:20 pm

Jacula

Professional Scrabble is the worst place to be - it's dog eat dog and no one cares if the letter combinations mean anything, only what the score is. Babble is much better.

7:20 pm

redturtlehead

I would hate that, I would lose.

7:20 pm

crosshair

ive tried pro scrabble and your right..too cold for me

7:21 pm

redturtlehead

I like babble because its a game that eveyone can win you know!

7:21 pm

Jacula

red - with so many players and chatters, it's inevitable that some of them will irriate us some of the time and others all of the time. But, despite that, I think we do bloody well as a community!

7:21 pm

cybernan
