Hello flosey. I was lurking and just seen your post. I have some of my quilts that I can put in my profile. However, I am dog and house sitting for my son and using his computer. Going home later today to pick up my laptop so will put some up when I get back.

1:13 am

rururocks

how come no one every monkey-sits around here

1:13 am

flosey

wonderful Frances, thanks

1:14 am

Perhaps I should offer my services ruru.

1:14 am

1:17 am

gremlinn

1:17 am

dfmchfhf

perhaps I should go through my Gs and add Ses on to everything, I seem to always miss plurals

1:17 am

gremlinn

either add S or remove one from the ones you have

1:17 am

dfmchfhf

and... yep, missed yet another plural (winds)... fireworks! :o)

1:18 am

good morning. Happy Sunday! Another beautiful, flowery day

2:41 am

ursh

Good Morning Ruby - we have another lovely cooler day - we have had extreme heat right up until a week ago - so cooler weather a great relief

2:42 am

rubyfoo

it is funny, having friends in SAS and Oz! You are all upside down (or rightside up, depending on your point of view!)

2:42 am

crystalle

same here. Todays cooler weather is lovely

2:42 am

rubyfoo

hi crystalle. I am loving the warm spring

2:43 am

ursh

Hopefully we are going into winter - Durban has lovely mild winters but fierce summers with humidity which is very draining

2:44 am

rubyfoo

Although I've been in SA several times (on biz), I was never able to see Durban, to my regret. Was mostly in PE

2:45 am

ursh

Yes you said Ruby - my brother lives in PE and they are presently having awful drought and water shortages

2:46 am

rubyfoo

I loved going to PE, had never seen the Indian Ocean before going there the first time

2:46 am

ursh

Their house backs up on a nature reserve and they have to be careful cos puff adders are coming into their garden to drink water from fish pond

2:47 am

rubyfoo

that is scary!

2:52 am

rubyfoo

how big are puff adders, so are they easily visible?

2:52 am

rubyfoo

sone

2:53 am

rubyfoo

sorry, more coffee in the pb

2:53 am

ursh

short fat snakes but well camouflaged so have to watch for them carefully

2:53 am

rubyfoo

do they go after cats or dogs?

2:54 am

ursh

most number of bites from puffies in SA cos they are very lazy and get stood on - animals seem to avoid them mostly - instinct i suppose

2:55 am

lynxxx

they much prefer smaller american born women I hear

6:09 am

Jayk

Morning all. Wondering if there is a list anywhere? not lickety or gremlin or volley...

6:10 am

herinfernallady

Hi Jayk

6:10 am

Jayk

love the sound of those pastries!

6:10 am

lynxxx

Lickety is there. If you look at Jilli's profile you can get a new version of Expert

6:11 am

herinfernallady

Jayk it was really awesome

6:12 am

herinfernallady

I am watching The Happening. Not terrible sure of it but at the moment their Zombie Plan SUCKS.

6:13 am

lynxxx

watching a program on SBS - interesting and scary

6:14 am

Jayk

when i try to open it it says "the file is invalid or corrupted"

6:14 am

ivesy3

mine says i dont have permission to use it, but i can get the regular lickety jayk

6:15 am

lynxxx

Lickety? or Expert?

6:15 am

Jayk

expert--the in jilli

6:15 am

herinfernallady

That sounds interesting the show Lynxx

6:16 am

Jayk

ivesy--how did you get the regular one?

6:16 am

lynxxx

Did you have Expert before Jayk?

6:16 am

Jayk

no

6:16 am

ivesy3

just googled it and found it that way

6:16 am

Jayk

at least i don't think so

6:17 am

lynxxx

If you have bookmarked Lickety before, you might be better off starting afresh / googling

6:17 am

ivesy3

i have babble expert lynxx.. but it wont let me load from that link in jill profile

6:17 am

Jayk

and what would i google?

6:17 am

lynxxx

I don't know what I am talking about really - but maybe you need to get Expert from Lickety first - email him

6:17 am

ivesy3

just google lickey clues for babble

6:18 am

Jayk

every time i try to email lickety i get someone named mark

6:18 am

lynxxx

Worked for me Ivesy - don't ask me the steps though, totally confused

6:18 am

lynxxx

Lickety's name is Mark

6:18 am

herinfernallady

http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html HEre

6:19 am

ivesy3

me too, lol.. im using the regular one, have to enter the clues, but at least its a list

6:19 am

Jayk

thanks ivesy! that worked

6:19 am

herinfernallady

Jayk maybe it is costing him to use the server he has been using for free.

6:19 am

lynxxx

Ivesy - the regular one has a Bulk Add feature, look at the bottom of the list - very fast and easy

6:20 am

ivesy3

oh ok thank you will check it out

6:21 am

Angelsong

hi, all.I am using Babblle expert, and I'm getting a 404 error for lickety's list. is a list posted anywhere?

6:21 am

herinfernallady

http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html

6:21 am

lynxxx

hi Angel, read the conversations just under

6:23 am

Jayk

but lynxx--this mark says he doesn't have anything to do with the technicalities of babble...?

6:24 am

lynxxx

No he wouldn't. Lickety only writes Licketys Babble Clues or Babble Expert. DrG is responsible for writing and maintaining Babble

6:25 am

lynxxx

understand? not sure what you were asking Lickety

6:26 am

Jayk

buses

6:26 am

Jayk

sorry!

6:27 am

herinfernallady

Dr G and Lickety are two different people. Lickety just does the clues for nothing. He does them for his wife Mr Pres.

6:27 am

ivesy3

i emailed lickety, he sent me expert.i didnt have any problems. only problem now is the error message for the clues.. happened a few times, then cleared up

6:29 am

herinfernallady

It just happens. Lickety does this for nothing so heck if it doesn't work well meh

6:29 am

lynxxx

I think Google is giving Lickety grief Ivesy. If you can get that file on Jilli's profile open and saved, it will overwrite the version you have now

6:29 am

lynxxx

You can look at the conversations just after the flip today - may shed some light

6:30 am

ivesy3

i will try again later.. i do ok with some things with comoputers, but the messages stump me lol

6:30 am

that is a stretch, molly, but I already had it! I think achy and cranky would be better

Which one Ruby? The ol will also give you the 9

Ol 9 what is it please clues please

The world has gone crazy. Both cats are sitting and sleeping together

In my opinion, a stupid 9, but the 9 today, nonetheless. It sounds like a word that would get a big red X on an English paper.

6:57 am

rubyfoo

if I was doing the grading, for sure!

6:57 am

MollyL

Herin, ol 7 is the description of being elderly. Or the state of being elderly. The ol9 is it's plural, if you can dig that.

6:57 am

digging = bad idea for that noun!

Better grid than yesterday, at least.

7:14 am

MollyL

The ti7 and 8 are not real words. To me, anyway. Put an r in front of the word that means in between. That won't work, but one who does and the the plural of that word will. Weird.

7:15 am

MollyL

Sorry, put a T in front of the word that means in between. Off for more coffee.

7:16 am

MollyL

Kind of like one who plays ti**** winks, and it's plural.

7:16 am

Here's the problem with that word from the other day- mosey. You can't pluralise it.

7:17 am

sure you can, you just add an s.

Kaplan the Magne

7:18 am

hurshy

well it just happens that in this case it's not mosies, it is moseys.

7:18 am

Kaplan the Magne

Apparently one can only mosey.

7:22 am

FMitch

Hey Haz and herin and all!

7:22 am

hurshy

hello.

7:22 am

Haz1558

Hello, FM.

7:22 am

hurshy

so i have 6 lazy i words and i have seriously no idea what else can come from that i

7:23 am

FMitch

Haz, herin and hurshy - all the h's :)

7:23 am

Haz1558

Take your lazy words and extend them in French fashion.

7:23 am

FMitch

I've got 7 of them so far

7:24 am

FMitch

Sunny with you Haz?

7:24 am

hurshy

ok that gives me two more - should it have given me all 3?

7:25 am

Haz1558

Two of the id words almost look like French for lazy woman/women if that makes se5/10.

7:25 am

hurshy

oh most!

7:25 am

hurshy

got it.

7:25 am

Haz1558

I'm still missing an i from that corner.

7:25 am

Kaplan the Magne

I have 7- are there more?

7:25 am

Haz1558

It's lovely, FM, really warm.

7:25 am

hurshy

it's most lazy

7:25 am

hurshy

unless you missed the 8

7:26 am

Uneaixoise

have 9 lazy words

7:26 am

Haz1558

All 9 are relating to the quality of not working.

7:26 am

FMitch

who knew you could be lazy so many different wasy, but suitable for a Sunday :)

7:26 am

Kaplan the Magne

I have the 8. I am probable missing a fish.

7:26 am

Uneaixoise

hey, haz, hursh, kaplan, et al :-)

7:27 am

Haz1558

There are two id8 - one is the quality of not wishing to do anything, the other is the plural of the French looking one.

7:27 am

FMitch

Hi Une!

7:27 am

Haz1558

id8/45 - first three lazy letters followed by the biggest portion possible of the s.

7:27 am

Kaplan the Magne

I don't have the french. Will keep looking.

7:27 am

Uneaixoise

hey, fmitch!

7:28 am

Uneaixoise

the "french" looks like women who are lazy

7:28 am

NonoNanette

good morning Babblers :)

7:28 am

Uneaixoise

hey, non

7:28 am

Uneaixoise

*nono

7:28 am

NonoNanette

thanks for the french looking ones Haz I had all but those

7:29 am

Haz1558

It's the same ending as in the French phrase 'Nob***** oblige'

7:29 am

Kaplan the Magne

Thank you. A lazy female?

7:29 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, Nono.

7:29 am

Haz1558

See my hint below, Kaplan.

7:29 am

movieman

what about the lower m?

7:30 am

FMitch

Ahh, the light bulb went on - thanks.

7:30 am

movieman

are they all center words?

7:30 am

Uneaixoise

they all start with mi + double consonant

7:30 am

hurshy

so whose profile has the list today?

7:30 am

MollyL

Good clues for the id 7 and 8 Haz.

7:31 am

FMitch

4 are mm the other 2 are old word for muck heap and pl.

7:31 am

Haz1558

mi6/27 - a dung heap and its plural. Clothes pegs on noses.

7:31 am

movieman

lickety does, hursh

7:31 am

MollyL

Lickety has a list today. You need to Google search "Lickety's Babble Clues" to find it.

7:31 am

Haz1558

Thanks, Molly.

7:31 am

NonoNanette

havent looked for one yet hurshy

7:31 am

hurshy

why is the link on here broken?

7:32 am

FMitch

Talking of which HAz, have you watched any of the Filthy Cities series yet - I will be i-player'ing the 1st one this afternoon.

7:32 am

MollyL

The link on this page is broken. Dr. God needs to fix that.

7:32 am

Haz1558

I've seen the trailers, not sure whether to watch or not. It'll depend on whether it's on at a suitable time.

7:32 am

FMitch

Don't know hursh but there is a new link for babble expert if you use it (saved it in my profile)

7:33 am

FMitch

I think it is 9pm Haz hence i-player.

7:34 am

hurshy

i don't use expert i just get his printable clues. but thanks.

7:34 am

Haz1558

9 pm? Sure the evening's only getting started.

7:34 am

FMitch

Must go and stir the cooking put. Back in a bit.

7:35 am

hurshy

what is Filthy Cities? something informative, or something trashy?

7:35 am

Haz1558

It's very informative, hurshy, giving a historical analysis of how cities such as Paris and London developed their systems for sanitation.

7:36 am

hurshy

well that's a relief. i didn't want you and FM sullying your minds :)

7:36 am

Haz1558

It's written and presented by Dan Snow. You'd find details on the BBC website.

7:36 am

Haz1558

New York features as well so we've not left out the New World.

7:37 am

Haz1558

No, our minds remain unsullied. ish.

7:37 am

hurshy

i hate new york.

7:38 am

Kaplan the Magne

Why do you hate new York?

7:38 am

Haz1558

I've never been so I couldn't possibly comment. My daughter visited it recently and she loved it.

7:38 am

Haz1558

Vegetables need to be looked after - off I go!

7:39 am

hurshy

it's cold hearted and mean and the buildings are tall and everything feels so crowded and the traffic is terrible...

7:41 am

Kaplan the Magne

Central ParK! The Metropolitan Museum! Hidden streets with little gardens! Street musicians! Blends of people! Washington Square!

7:41 am

Kaplan the Magne

Queens!

7:41 am

Uneaixoise

Ditto what kaplan said! :-)

7:42 am

Uneaixoise

and great people-watching! :-)

7:42 am

hurshy

sorry, just won't ever like it. i don't like chicago either. i can't stand the hemmed-in feeling.

7:42 am

NonoNanette

Every place has it's good and bad points, I think NY City has more than its share of good points

7:42 am

herinfernallady

Wow my kitty just pushed a rather heavy bag from one end of the coffee table to the other

7:42 am

MollyL

I'm with Hursh on New York. It's the hemmed in feeling plus all the noise.

7:42 am

Kaplan the Magne

Soho! Noho! Upper East! Warm vibrant people! Just stay out of Time Square !

7:42 am

Uneaixoise

ok, gotta run pick up donated food for soup kitchen *poof*

7:43 am

MollyL

Probably because the "city" I grew up knowing is DC. And there are no tall buildings there.

7:43 am

hurshy

i prefer european cities. rome... madrid...

7:44 am

NonoNanette

FM thanks for the link to the mended Babble Expert!

7:44 am

hurshy

thanks for the backup molly :)

7:46 am

hurshy

i always thought i couldn't be the ONLY person who objected to new york, and now my suspicion has been confirmed.

7:47 am

MollyL

My husband got off the train en route from Canada to here in New York. It was 6AM and he said it was the loudest place he had ever been at that time of day. Give me a place with quiet mornings any day.

7:48 am

hurshy

amen to that

7:56 am

MollyL

I think some people take a shine to that kind of environment, and some don't. Me, I need to see the sky.

Bless you, FM and hello everyone

8:26 am

FMitch

Hey Annie!!!

8:26 am

Angelsong

uusue, which version of Babble Expert do you have? the link in yur profile will not pull it up.

8:26 am

Anniebrook

FM, How does your garden grow? I have been lurking of late.

8:27 am

FMitch

It is full of springness, sun, flowers and blossom Annie :)

8:27 am

webatx

Ok ty

8:28 am

FMitch

I used the link that BR gave out earlier (it's in my profile) and it worked fine.

8:28 am

Anniebrook

FM, Just lovely. I know you are enjoying it.

8:28 am

car.eeyore

Does it just replace my other Babble Expert?

8:29 am

FMitch

It is just a relief to see blue skies and sun for a change. Hope all is well with yo uand Bobby?

8:29 am

uusue2

hi, angel, the link should open (or download, depending on your settings) a zip file which you can unzip and then run. It will install the new version of babble expert that Lickety posted last night. I just tried it again (in Chrome) and it worked.

8:29 am

Anniebrook

Yes, I have the link working on AOL and I will try it on chrome.

8:29 am

uusue2

FMitch has the same link.

8:29 am

uusue2

car. I don't know what it does with the other Babble Expert since I didn't have it.

8:30 am

Anniebrook

Bobby is well but his father passed away March 11. He has his moments of sadness but overall he is doing okay.

8:31 am

FMitch

It is the same expert as before as far as I can see - it just works now *grin*

Sorry to hear that Annie.

8:31 am

uusue2

angel, I just tried it with Firefox and if you choose "save file" that should work as well.

8:32 am

crosshair

oh! almost forgot,here is crossy famouse book quote of the day!...

8:32 am

crosshair

We may sit in our library and yet be in all quarters of the earth.

8:33 am

FMitch

good one crossy - you could almost say the same about the babble chog.

8:33 am

uusue2

nice, crossy.

8:34 am

MollyL

Wow Annie, strange somewhat sad synchronicity between us. My husband, who passed away last year? His birthday is March 11.

8:34 am

crosshair

this is very true fm

8:36 am

graygoose

A book in the hand is worth two on the shelf.

8:36 am

FMitch

So what are you going to do with your day off today crossy and how is the weather there?

8:37 am

FMitch

lol goose

8:38 am

crosshair

we have our first real rain of the season and it is nice to see.i think i shall dawdle away the morning with this grid,then some laundry calls then maybe a nice drive in the hills and a stop for some fish and chips along the way

8:38 am

FMitch

Excellent re the lunchtime/afternoon activities.

8:39 am

Flask1

Hi all....clue please for en7/32?

8:39 am

uusue2

speaking of geese (which led me to the usual one in the grid) the Hawaiian goose apparently doesn't have a plural. I know that I know this but I have to rediscover it frequently.

8:39 am

movieman

without a finish, flask

8:40 am

FMitch

Flask - infinity

8:41 am

FMitch

oh uusue the number of times I have done that with various babblets, drives me nuts - I should know better after all these years!

8:42 am

crosshair

think thats bad? ever find yourself all done and in cluing mode,when all of a sudden you find yourself scanning the grid for more words?!

8:42 am

FMitch

Glad to say I haven't done that one crossy.

8:42 am

Mr Bob

good morning

8:43 am

crosshair

howdy bob

8:43 am

ivesy3

does anyone know why when i try to load the new babble expert i get a "u dont have permission blah blah blah?

8:44 am

uusue2

probably something to do with permissions on your computer, ivesy, are you logged in as administrator?

8:44 am

ivesy3

yes, i clicked open as administrator.. very frustrating

8:44 am

NonoNanette

ivesy you may have to close the old one first

8:45 am

ivesy3

ok will try again.. u think it matters if its google chrome or internet expl?

8:46 am

Sam

Morning all. Does anyone know where I can grab a copy of expert? I was the one who goaded Lickety into creating it, and now he won't answer my emails begging for a new one. I lost mine in a PC meltdown last year.

8:46 am

NonoNanette

possibly I think you have to use IE. I know it doesnt work on firefox

8:46 am

NonoNanette

Sam the link is in my profile

8:46 am

Sam

Thanks, Nanette!

8:47 am

crosshair

and it is also running fine on chrome

8:47 am

NonoNanette

no problem

8:47 am

NonoNanette

ok Crossy I wasnt sure about chrome

8:47 am

uusue2

it's downloading a file onto your computer, ivesy, so once it's downloaded I don't think it should matter how you got it.

8:47 am

ivesy3

ok tried internet get same thing..says can open website but doesnt have permission... and thats run as administrator ahhhh

8:48 am

uusue2

I tried to download it using firefox and it worked (at least to the point of asking me if I wanted to run or save the file - since I already had it I didn't go farther than that)

8:49 am

ivesy3

emailed lickety , see what he says

8:49 am

NonoNanette

i just downloaded the mended one this morning when i found the link in FM's profile. Had no problem with it except I had to close the old one so that I could delete it from my desktop

8:49 am

crosshair

when you download expert,go to the file it downloaded in,copy it and paste it to desktop and try selecting extract here and the yellowgif will show on the desk and waway you go

8:50 am

uusue2

ivesy, if you send me your email I can email you the zip file - send to uusuzanne at yahoo dot com

8:50 am

NonoNanette

its the zip file that the link in my profile is for

8:51 am

ivesy3

ok uusue will do that now

8:52 am

72 Temple Owl

hi all.. i opened the file, now what?

8:52 am

crosshair

do you see the yellow icon on your desk?

8:53 am

72 Temple Owl

i don't know anything about expert. will i still need a list?

8:53 am

crosshair

no

8:53 am

NonoNanette

expert is all enclusive list and all

8:53 am

72 Temple Owl

no icon. i opned it, i did not save it

8:53 am

crosshair

it is built in

8:53 am

uusue2

there should be an option like "extract all files", TO, if you do that it should run automatically.

8:54 am

Flask1

can someone put the link up please?

8:54 am

72 Temple Owl

ok and would i have to have opened it or don loaded it> i only opened it

8:54 am

NonoNanette

its in my profile flask

8:54 am

Flask1

am not able to access profiles

8:55 am

uusue2

it's on its way to you, ivesy

8:55 am

NonoNanette

ok then here it is: http://r46.me/BabbleExpert20110410.zip

8:56 am

ivesy3

ty uusue

8:56 am

72 Temple Owl

ok i just ran it and it is open. surprised that i had to lof in to babble again

8:57 am

uusue2

yes, I had to do that too, TO but then it worked fine.

8:57 am

72 Temple Owl

ok so other than having vlue son the same page, what is the advantage?

8:58 am

ivesy3

ok uusue it worked tyvm!!

8:58 am

uusue2

It's really easy to send words back and forth between Babble and the clues, TO, just click the buttons at the top.

8:58 am

uusue2

and if you want to word hunt without the clues you can click on the yellow vertical bar and they will hide.

8:59 am

NonoNanette

and as you type in the words they will automaticly be added to the clues list

8:59 am

72 Temple Owl

this is too much for me

8:59 am

Sam

Or open Lickety Add, and it will populate both lists simultaneously.

8:59 am

uusue2

anyway I have to go get dressed, we are meeting with some friends about getting horse trails in the county forest preserves - not my thing but SO is very interested. I will continue to grade papers while they talk.

9:00 am

not to make you worry crossy but i have found many errors in h&r block returns--very few people in life are NEVER wrong

9:24 am

crosshair

same 30 dollars then,this way i do not have to imput everything

9:24 am

jmcnrick

then red if you clicked the check return button and you reported all of your income you will be fine

9:24 am

72 Temple Owl

yes my ex was irs and claimed the same about them, je

9:24 am

crosshair

one year they found an extra 1000 dollars for me,so i owe them lol

9:24 am

jmcnrick

everyone makes mistakes

9:24 am

redturtlehead

Indeed It is possible for everyone to be wrong. My Mom and turbo tax this year had a HUGE arguement.

9:25 am

redturtlehead

They made an error, and to undo the error, it took them 3 weeks and someone had to write a new code.

9:25 am

jmcnrick

I almost always can find money for new clients in their old return

9:25 am

72 Temple Owl

red how did your mom get hold of them to do so? LAst year they did not take that credit and i got more back from irs. irs letter is jarring

9:25 am

redturtlehead

My only concern JMC is that more and more of the 403B are not really sending clearly marked forms, like "THIS IS FOR TAXES" ah well.

9:25 am

jmcnrick

my goodness red! what a pain

9:26 am

72 Temple Owl

Haz1558

Yes, I know, the last letters of the water carrying device.

10:34 am

vanillaslice

clue pls for id7

10:34 am

Haz1558

Or how about M**** who led the children of Israel out of Egypt, but put an I into the start of his name.

10:34 am

rururocks

the most lazy vanilla

10:34 am

Haz1558

Unaccountably, I have had no invitation, ruru.

10:35 am

rururocks

oh.. I am shocked!

10:35 am

vanillaslice

ty

10:35 am

Haz1558

However, I have bought my outfit for my daughter's wedding, so if they realise their mistake, I'll be ready.

10:35 am

Aloyisius

must have been a terrible oversight

10:35 am

rururocks

lol good thinking

10:35 am

Flask1

GOT IT!!!!

10:35 am

Haz1558

You can't get the staff these days.

10:35 am

Flask1

thanx Haz!!

10:36 am

Haz1558

Excellent, Flask!

10:36 am

crosshair

that would be it

10:36 am

crosshair

almost

10:36 am

Haz1558

Glad you got there.

10:36 am

Aloyisius

when is your daughter's wedding, Haz? how exciting (-:

10:36 am

Flask1

so am I

10:36 am

rururocks

they were afraid you would pull PRince Charles' ears

10:36 am

Haz1558

It's at the beginning of August, Aloy - 16 weeks and 5 days, or so I was informed this morning.

10:37 am

Aloyisius

indoors, I hope?

10:37 am

Haz1558

Oh absolutely. Very few people would chance an outdoor wedding over here.

10:38 am

Haz1558

Hopefully we'll have the opportunity to have photographs taken outside etc, but you'd never bank on being able to be without rain.

10:38 am

rururocks

really? in August?

10:39 am

Haz1558

You've obviously never lived in Britain, ruru.

10:39 am

rururocks

I have never been to England true.. I do want to visit Scotland some day

10:40 am

crosshair

rain...fog..mist...drizzle..dampness..
...

10:40 am

Haz1558

The weather just isn't dependable enough. It could be brilliant sunshine, it coul be dull and damp, it could be chucking it down. So, we err on the side of caution and plan for indoors.

10:40 am

rururocks

<---is now officially stuck with this grid

10:40 am

rururocks

um I see.. good plan

10:41 am

crosshair

our inuit people use over 200 descriptive words for snow,and i am sure you guys have a bout the same for rain lol

10:41 am

Aloyisius

brb.. brunch has arrived.. think I'll keep this hubby

10:41 am

Haz1558

The gardens at the hotel (17th century castle, just to make all the Americans swoon) are lovely, and it's right at the coast, so if we get decent weather it makes for nice photo opportunities for the le7/32.

10:43 am

inge

Is the only available clue list the one in Licketys profile > When it is printed we cannot sue it, the clues are too close together

10:43 am

godthaab

Haz, I just saw that you were from Ballymena. I was there this summer. My wife's family is from there.

10:44 am

inge

troll aboard

?

10:45 am

crosshair

not sure inge..we shall see

10:45 am

godthaab

Yes. We had a great time looking up relatives there. We found two of her fourth cousins there, as well as her mother's cousin, who is 90+.

10:46 am

Haz1558

inge, try dfmchfhf's profile.

10:46 am

inge

but Gremlin's list is for April 5

10:46 am

Haz1558

How long ago did your wife's family leave? And where are you from yourself.

10:46 am

rururocks

lickety is working again for another site

10:47 am

Haz1558

inge, try dfmchfhf instead - go to rankings and do a control F.

10:48 am

godthaab

They left around 1923. Do you know McKillens?

10:48 am

Haz1558

Who doesn't know McKillens!

10:48 am

godthaab

Me, my family is from Russia, Romania, Austria.

10:49 am

Erda

Help on Mi 6,21 please??

10:49 am

sallyds

How do you get to Lickety's profile? I can't manage it from rankings.

10:49 am

phaeton

te7 please?

10:49 am

godthaab

That is one of my wife's fourth cousins. We met him and he was Very Hospitable.

10:49 am

Haz1558

Ah, so you're more of a European mixture.

10:50 am

Haz1558

This would be McKillens of shoe fame? I know the family, his sons were contemporaries of my husbands at school.

10:50 am

Haz1558

te7 - the feeling you get when under stress

10:50 am

godthaab

Yes. There is even some distant royalty via my grandfather's brother. Are you in Ballymena right now?

10:50 am

phaeton

ok...lickety says i have all the S's but the grid is not greyed out...?

10:50 am

Haz1558

I am, yes.

10:50 am

periwinkle

hello all

10:50 am

Haz1558

I've been living here for 29 years so am still a bit of a newcomer.

10:51 am

godthaab

Shoes, yes that the place.

10:51 am

Haz1558

Hello, peri.

10:51 am

periwinkle

I am able to get lickety's clues but cannot get Babble Expert. I have the http

10:52 am

godthaab

Is it Thomas (the third) son of Matthew (?) that you know?

10:52 am

Haz1558

phaeton, check that your entries in Lickety correspond with what's entered in babble, you may have missed one or something.

10:52 am

Haz1558

Yes, Thomas and David who's currently in Zambia.

10:53 am

godthaab

What's the weather like there? We are in the middle of a thunderstorm.

10:53 am

phaeton

thanks Haz...that worked for the S

10:53 am

Haz1558

It's lovely and sunny today, very springlike.

10:54 am

godthaab

Wow, what a small world. You must mean the father of Thomas that you know. I think they all called Thomas.

10:54 am

Haz1558

I've always said that Northern Ireland is such a small place that you should never say anything about anyone because you're probably talking to someone's second cousin.

10:55 am

phaeton

te7...the number pluraled and add ***imate ending?

10:55 am

phaeton

nm...got it~!

10:56 am

godthaab

Do you know Noleen Hall?

10:56 am

Haz1558

I don't think so.

10:57 am

godthaab

She's from Dunnyvadden (sic) which is my wife's mother ancestral home. We found Thomas McKillen through her.

10:58 am

Haz1558

I've heard of Dunnyvadden.

10:59 am

godthaab

I think it is about four miles outside of Ballymena. You have to search for it. I don't even think there is a sign for it.

11:01 am

Haz1558

I think it's up near Tully which would correspond with the McKillen connection.

11:01 am

Aloyisius

.. back. Haz, my mind is conjuring up some lovely scenes of the wedding - what a venue!

11:02 am

Haz1558

Husband is a large animal vet, godthaab, and he knows every inch of this place and all the townlands.

11:02 am

godthaab

Hmmm.. which Thomas do you know? Thomas runs the store, his father is Matthew, and HIS father is Thomas. Yes it is near Tully.

11:02 am

Haz1558

It is very picturesque, Aloy, I must admit.

11:02 am

Haz1558

I know the Thomas who's the son of Matthew.

11:03 am

crosshair

crossy has a sudden desire to read james herriot:)

11:03 am

godthaab

That's the guy we met. Doesn't he have little kids who are about 10?

11:04 am

rururocks

do you like your future son in law Haz?

11:04 am

Haz1558

Yes, he has quite a few children and they had 'a wee late one' who is probably around that age.

11:04 am

Haz1558

I like him very much, ruru. He's very calm, polite and has a good sense of humour.

11:04 am

rururocks

that's nice

11:05 am

Aloyisius

how did your daughter meet him?

11:05 am

rururocks

haz.. have you heard from Atalante.. I haven't seen her here in months and months

11:06 am

Haz1558

Funnily enough, he's the younger brother of her best friend. They've known each other for years and then gradually it all became more serious.

11:06 am

Aloyisius

perfect !

11:06 am

crosshair

i,s incinerated! yaaa!

11:06 am

godthaab

Say Hi from Gary and Barbara in Canada next time you are in the store.

11:07 am

Haz1558

Atalante is working, ruru, and doesn't have as much time to babble as before.

11:07 am

rururocks

oh.. I miss her humor and wit around here

11:07 am

Haz1558

I will, Gary, I'm sure Thomas will be interested to hear of the connection!

11:07 am

Haz1558

Aloy, google Ballygally Castle for a proper look at the reception venue.

11:08 am

Aloyisius

will do, ty Haz

11:08 am

Haz1558

I miss her as well, ruru, we used to have long conversations about all sorts of things. Still, she loves her work so that's good.

11:09 am

Haz1558

She and I share the same sense of the ridiculous.

11:09 am

rururocks

I am amazed I have continued with this game every day myself

11:09 am

Aloyisius

omgosh.. gorgeous! even a link for "weddings".. so huge!

11:09 am

Haz1558

Save for the New Year 2009 wobble.

11:10 am

rururocks

yes you do.. the two of you chipping in together was hilarious

11:11 am

Aloyisius

wow, the Loch **** monster is in so many words

11:11 am

Haz1558

Aloy, you can now understand why I was asking for cheques to be sent for information about Lickety... It's the Daughter's Wedding Fund.

11:11 am

Aloyisius

LOL.. so elegant - cheque is in the mail

11:11 am

Haz1558

Excellent!

11:12 am

Aloyisius

is this the only daughter or must you start another fund too?

11:12 am

rururocks

that's a lot of farm animals to take care of to pull off that wedding.. methinks

11:12 am

Scrabbler

Good day to all.

11:13 am

Haz1558

I have another one! She's three years younger and has all sorts of fancy notions about weddings. We'll probably pay her to elope when the time comes.

11:13 am

Haz1558

Hello, Scrabbler.

11:15 am

Scrabbler

Yep, Ruru--patterns! I look for patterns.

11:15 am

Haz1558

He's a magnificent talent. Have you been following the golf, Scrabbler?

11:16 am

Scrabbler

Somewhat but more so today.

11:16 am

rururocks

he's the new guard haz..

11:16 am

Haz1558

We're so proud of what he's already accomplished and yet has stayed pretty down to earth.

11:17 am

rururocks

and he hasn't been caught with hookers like you know who

11:17 am

Haz1558

I actually remember watching a local programme about him when he was only 12 and the presenter saying 'Remember the name, Rory McIlroy'

11:19 am

Scrabbler

I saw an interview with him and he is quite mature for his age--he's just 21!

11:19 am

Scrabbler

OK, my hiking buddy just called so I must get ready. I shall return later.

11:19 am

Haz1558

See you later, Scrabbler.

11:19 am

Aloyisius

have fun, Scrabbler!

11:20 am

Scrabbler

We are going to the Erie County Forest--lots of trails deep in the woods. There is an island where we have lunch.

Good grief. Any chance of a clue, Pug?

plural the ol7 if you have it

2:11 pm

jesdraggon

thanks, pug

2:11 pm

Looking.......

2:11 pm

ChampFit

geez louise!

2:11 pm

jesdraggon

enable thinks so... but i'm not sure how trustworthy enable is :)

2:12 pm

ChampFit

no joke! Soodle, are you watching the Masters golf tournament at all?

2:12 pm

pugmama763

happy babbling, maybe back later for last 13

2:12 pm

jesdraggon

bye, pug

2:12 pm

ChampFit

bye pug!

2:13 pm

Soodle

Keeping an eye on it, Champ. Is the Rory still doing well?

2:14 pm

ChampFit

He's now tied for the lead with some cute young S. African

2:14 pm

Soodle

Golly. I got the OL 9. (Having just spent the weekend minding my elderly parents, I should have got that long ago... LOL)

2:14 pm

ChampFit

They're both adorable...the little golfer kids!

2:15 pm

Soodle

I saw Rory being interviewed about his preparation for the Masters. Wow. Talk about strategy....

2:15 pm

Soodle

LOL Champ. Fun-sized golfers!!

2:16 pm

ChampFit

He was so calm and collected! Amazing! Had some mis-cues today. Yes, fun sized! :)

2:19 pm

Soodle

I'm not a golfer myself, Champ, so I am not glued to the TV. I'm only taking an interest from a 'national pride' point of view!

2:19 pm

ChampFit

The co-leaders are 21 and 26. WOW! And Tiger seems to have woken up. Yes, I only follow occasionally. My dad was passionate about his golf!

2:20 pm

Soodle

Like I said, I just spent the weekend watching my parents - both of whom were avid golfers, back in the day. I am happy to be golf-free now, and babbling away :-)

2:22 pm

ChampFit

How are they, soodle?

2:24 pm

Soodle

Champ, I am not trying to be faecitious (sp?) but if they were horses, they would have been shot long ago! They are both in their 80's, and between them have numerous health problems. But I am very very glad they are both sill alive and kicking!

2:25 pm

Shirlockc

anyone have the lickety URL?

2:25 pm

dan2bit

in my profile Shirlockc

2:25 pm

ChampFit

Got it! That's funny that you say that. I always told my mom I'd never put her in a home...I'd shoot her first! She didn't really appreciate that, though. ;)

2:26 pm

Soodle

That was very tongue in cheek about the horse thing.... If I didn't laugh, I'd cry!

2:26 pm

jesdraggon

yay, lickety's back! :D

2:26 pm

ChampFit

really? scampering off now...

2:26 pm

Soodle

Hello Dan. Hows the mini-Dan?

2:27 pm

ChampFit

PRAISE THE LORD!!!!

2:27 pm

dan2bit

baby2bit is great - her first birthday is (gasp) less than month hence

2:27 pm

jesdraggon

so soon, dan? wow

2:28 pm

Soodle

Your profile pic is just adorable. I have no doubt she is Babbling....

2:28 pm

dan2bit

yes it has flown. but, it also seems like she's always been with us

2:29 pm

dan2bit

she is obsessed with keyboards, laptops, phones, remotes - anything with buttons

2:29 pm

Soodle

Isn't that just the way with kids? Before you have them, you can't imagine life with a kid. Then they arrive, and you just can't visualise life before them. Mother Nature at her very best!

2:30 pm

Soodle

And, as for Lickety - He is as welcome as the flowers in Spring!

2:30 pm

ChampFit

Then, they hit 16, start to drive, and you want to beat them up all the time! Wait...that's just me. :)

2:30 pm

dan2bit

hahah Champ

2:30 pm

wildcat17

just like her nickname dan ... how cute

2:31 pm

Soodle

Nope, Champ. I'm with you there!

2:31 pm

ChampFit

I don't really beat them, but there were pats on the rump when they were little and would do something dangerous, for sure!

2:31 pm

Shirlockc

thx for the URL dan2bit

2:32 pm

jesdraggon

not just you, champ. i wanna beat my co-worker's 16 year old regularly ;)

2:32 pm

ChampFit

They probably need it then, jes!

2:32 pm

Soodle

Pats on the rump never did anybody any harm whatsoever.

2:33 pm

ChampFit

My 16 year old is currently grounded for lying to me. She was roaming the streets of the neighborhood at 2 a.m. Luckily, her older brother saw her, so she came home to face the music. We are having TOGETHERNESS now!

2:34 pm

jesdraggon

yeah, her daughter got pissed recently when they told her she was no longer allowed to drive their truck (after 4 tickets!!!) and grabbed a knife and ran off into the woods...

2:35 pm

ChampFit

a knife? hmmm...that's not ideal. :)

2:35 pm

Soodle

Ouch, Champ. 16 is such a tricky age. I have a 16 yr old daughter as well...... But luckily, we live out in the country, so she can't get anywhere unless I drive her, so I still have a modicum of control.

2:35 pm

jesdraggon

yeah. i dunno what she thought she was gonna do.

2:35 pm

ChampFit

She drives. She was supposed to be at a friend's house. There's a curfew of midnight here, so luckily the law is on my side. A policeman could've arrested her for being out. So...I win!

2:37 pm

Soodle

Oh, Jes. That must have been scary..... Teenagers are so...... teenagery!

2:37 pm

wildcat17

child's minds trapped in adult bodies

2:37 pm

ChampFit

I find it funny that her 24 year old brother is the one tattling on her, as if HE didn't ever do anything wrong!

2:37 pm

wildcat17

never a good combination

2:37 pm

Soodle

Jes, did she come back of her own accord?

2:38 pm

jesdraggon

no, her dad called work, and mom left work early and went and got her bf, and they all went out in the woods looking.

2:38 pm

jesdraggon

found her and hauled her back home.

2:39 pm

ChampFit

GOOD GRIEF!

2:40 pm

jesdraggon

yeah. i rather think the beatings may have needed to be started earlier... you know, 12 years ago or so...

2:40 pm

jesdraggon

kid has serious attitude, and not a lot of forethought.

2:40 pm

ChampFit

Insurance for a teen driver is a nightmare. After 4 tickets, don't they suspend your license? And yes of course, beatings!

2:41 pm

ChampFit

I find that many of them just don't consider consequences. Mine know about them, but so many of their friends don't think that extra step ahead!

2:41 pm

Soodle

Oh my, Jes. (Dan - avert your eyes..........) Being a teenager is just such a Jumble. Hormones, growth spurts, insecurities, trying to assert yourself, sheesh. I would't go back there for all the tea in China!

2:41 pm

jesdraggon

we joke (her mother and i, the mother knows the issues are there) that she bred for show-quality, not work-abilty. Both her daughters are drop dead gorgeous, and absolute nightmares.

2:42 pm

jesdraggon

yeah; that's why she's not allowed to drive. then she got pissed that dad wouldn't let her take the truck ANYWAY, despite having gotten the notice of suspension just 2 days prior.

2:43 pm

ChampFit

Glad they didn't cave.

2:43 pm

jesdraggon

yeah. still... they're in for a rough few months with her, i think.

2:43 pm

Soodle

What a lovely way of describing her - Show quality, not work ability! Says it all!

2:44 pm

ChampFit

If only she could be frozen like that. So much easier!

2:44 pm

jesdraggon

yeah... she'd do great in a show-ring ;)

2:45 pm

ChampFit

OK...I don't have a single word for the s in the first column. Help!

2:45 pm

wildcat17

sc5 and 6

2:46 pm

ChampFit

and again, I am obviously blind! Thank you wildcat!

2:46 pm

Shirlockc

2:48 pm

2:53 pm

ivesy3

lol... plz.. my sister is already have panic attacks.

2:53 pm

ChampFit

Is she doing race day registration? There are any number of people that will show up and try to register that day. No kidding. If she wants to take them, she needs to be ready.

2:53 pm

jillibus

Inge -- are you using BabbleExpert or are you a Mac person? Lickety's clues are just as they always were. Don't give up! What are you finding difficult?

2:54 pm

2:55 pm

ChampFit

That's great! Good for her. Bet it more than doubles next time.

2:56 pm

ivesy3

i think it will too.. this is the first in our city, though they have them in bigger places around us.

2:57 pm

3:15 pm

crosshair

3:15 pm

ChampFit

it's not all that mild, and yes crossy, I was an idiot! Reading in the water, and time went by me. First time out this year.

3:15 pm

3:15 pm

ChampFit

Taylor's coming to Houston in November, tickets just went on sale, and tweens everywhere are going berserk!

3:16 pm

ChampFit

I know crossy. Did my stupid stunt for the summer. Next time, more careful. Lost my mind, I think!

3:16 pm

my belly looks like 2 doctors were bored and had a game of x,s and oh,s

3:16 pm

jillibus

my cousin's hubby died of melanoma (avid golfer in NC) -- crossy's warning very much taken to heart.

TO. You start out lazy and then when you have lazed long enough you enter a state of laziness and become a lazy person. Then you are beside yourself and there are two of you, so you go to France and you are beside your self there and that is how you become the most idle person of all.
