1:03 am

flosey

yes, me too jilli, very glad to see Lickety

1:04 am

gapeach

Hi there, flosey.

1:04 am

flosey

hi peach

1:05 am

flosey

how are you doing?

1:08 am

gapeach

Pretty well today. How are things with you?

1:09 am

flosey

good thanks peach, going over to Vancouver to see my girls for a few days - Friday to Wednesday

1:09 am

gapeach

Oh, good for you, flosey. Is that far from your house?

1:10 am

flosey

ferry ride then bus from the ferry to centre of Van. where they will pick me up

1:10 am

gapeach

Sounds great.

1:11 am

flosey

unless I decide to fly - takes about 20 minutes to downtown Van. (float plane) we'll see

1:12 am

flosey

the long way takes about 3 hours all told

1:12 am

jillibus

lol, peach, the ferry ride is an hour and a half plus 35 minutes getting to that terminal plus waiting time -- so it is far from flosey's house!

1:13 am

gapeach

The plane ride sounds like fun. Have you ridden it before?

1:13 am

jillibus

float plane is great in good weather but the forecast is for heavy rain and it was foggy up here tonight, flosey.

1:13 am

flosey

yes, when I was over helping daughter when her son was born, I flew home weekends to be with hubby

1:14 am

gapeach

What is your weather like tonight?

1:14 am

jillibus

it's foggy here, peach, as I just said.

1:15 am

flosey

was wet, but no rain that I remember

1:15 am

jillibus

Rain is in the forecast

1:16 am

gapeach

Well, I hope it will be better flying weather before you go. I love to fly but try not to in winter.

1:16 am

flosey

so, will likely take the ferry - there's a nice buffet lunch on the ferry, and I'll take a book along

1:17 am

flosey

it is more expensive, but so much faster

1:18 am

flosey

being retired, time doesn't always matter so much

1:18 am

jillibus

The way the ferry fares are rising, flying may end up cheaper!

1:18 am

flosey

lol, yes, afraid we're in for a few hikes with the ferries

1:19 am

flosey

wonder if they'll take away the free seniors sailings jilli

1:19 am

jillibus

stupic BC Ferries and gov'ts -- it IS our highway system.

1:19 am

flosey

seniors ride the ferries free Monday to Thursday

1:19 am

flosey

yes, of course it is

1:20 am

jillibus

but our cars don't!

1:20 am

flosey

I'm not driving

1:20 am

jillibus

oh, yes, that's much cheaper. I can't do that easily.

1:21 am

flosey

I don't know Vancouver well enough to drive and don't need a car while there

1:22 am

jillibus

Lucky you, flosey. I have to find my way, hence the GPS. Which got me into trouble at Xmas.

1:22 am

gapeach

Maybe you will meet some nice people on the ferry. I love to talk, makes the time pass more quickly. I was flying once and noticed a bunch of people in the terminal.....I've never seen so much gold all in one place in my life. I was seated next to one of the band members...he was trying to read a Louie Lamour book....poor thing....little did he know he was going to be talking for the next 45 min. Turned out to be the Tepmtations and the one I was talking with was Melvin Franklin. He was a great to talk with. I didn't know who they were until we landed and my daughter picked me up and said that they were performing here that afternoon.

1:23 am

jillibus

I bet he enjoyed talking, peach!

1:23 am

flosey

very interesting, peach

1:23 am

Bugsaw

Hi ladies. What happened with the GPS Jilli? I always trust mine in Vancouver

1:23 am

flosey

hi Bugsy

1:24 am

jillibus

nbt -- hi bugs!

1:25 am

gapeach

He seemed to be enjoying himself.....told me about touring abroad. He died a few years ago. Only Otis Williams is left of the originals.

1:25 am

gapeach

brb

1:25 am

Bugsaw

hi flosey. My sister and her husband went on the ferry to have lunch with their son in downtown Vancouver to celebrate them both being seniors. The whole day cost them $1.50 for the bus!

1:25 am

flosey

yes, we seniors do have some advantages

1:26 am

flosey

but what a thrill to have met him, Peach

1:26 am

jillibus

bugs, I was trying to get it to work on Dec 23, after leaving the ferry heading for the Tsawwassen Inn. Missed seeing a red light. Crashed into a car crossing in front of me. Totalled my Toyota. Thought you knew.

1:27 am

Bugsaw

I knew you had crashed but not how the GPS was a part of it. I am sorrry

1:27 am

jillibus

Too bad my son and family don't live in Vancouver but in Mission.

1:28 am

jillibus

Moral -- if you want to fix a GPS, pull over.

1:28 am

Bugsaw

absolutely jilli!

1:29 am

gapeach

It was, flosey.

1:30 am

Bugsaw

I met Paul Brandt once when I was working as a cashier in a store and he just came in. I had no idea who he was but the other cashier was going nuts because she was a huge fan.

1:30 am

jillibus

Bugs, that's right -- but hard to do when near an intersection amid streaming traffic offloading from the ferry.

1:31 am

jillibus

Who is Paul Brandt? I'm a mjusical dinosaur.

1:31 am

Bugsaw

I tried to let her serve him then and she was too excited. He just laughed at us arguing about who would serve him.

1:31 am

Bugsaw

He is a country singer jilli

1:32 am

Bugsaw

a good natured country singer in fact

1:32 am

jillibus

No wonder I never heard of him -- not into country sining

1:32 am

jillibus

*singing

1:33 am

Bugsaw

me neither. that was why I was clueless. Then I was worried that he was insulted so we were quite the comedy team

1:33 am

jillibus

or country sinning ;-)

1:35 am

Bugsaw

I must be off to bed. Another busy day tomorrow. Happy Babbling

1:35 am

flosey

good night Bugsy, sweet sleep

1:35 am

jillibus

any clues availabe for the bo7 & 8?

1:35 am

flosey

don't have them jilli

1:35 am

jillibus

Gnight bugs -- I'm busy tomorrow too.

1:35 am

gapeach

Sweet dreams, Bugs.

1:36 am

Haz1558

bo7 and 8 - Irish drum(s)

1:36 am

Haz1558

Or maybe not, the singular is right.

1:37 am

flosey

thanks Haz, yes the singular

1:37 am

jillibus

hello Haz! I have no idea about Irish drums, I'm afraid.

1:38 am

jillibus

flosey is so clever

1:38 am

flosey

googled it jilli

1:38 am

Haz1558

The bo8 is different, ends in a tiny insect, anagram of what flies in a clock.

1:39 am

Haz1558

bo7 - b plus two thirds of a poem (two letters), start of my name, three letters for moved quickly.

1:41 am

Haz1558

It's that hand-held drum played with a little stick thing.

1:41 am

flosey

going to get ready for bed - don't want to disturb hubby later

1:43 am

Lizlin

ty Haz - I'd been trying around that word for ages - knew there was a drum somewhere there but just couldn't remember! Thought I was getting mixed up with a city in Turkey eventually!

1:43 am

Lizlin

Hi again :)

1:44 am

demi

hello :)

1:44 am

Haz1558

Hello, LIz. I'm glad you found it, the pronounciation bears no resemblance to the spelling.

1:44 am

Haz1558

Hello, demi.

1:44 am

Lizlin

Hi Demi - hope all's well with both of you!

1:45 am

Lizlin

Don't know where I'd seen in written - in some fiction book or something. Just knew it rang a bell!

1:45 am

demi

i am well, rich not so. took him to dr earlier. he has ear infection.

1:46 am

Lizlin

Poor Rich! Hugs and stuff from us :)

1:46 am

jillibus

thanks, Haz -- I *had* thought those first four letters were right...

1:46 am

Haz1558

Back shortly, off to do the station run with daughter.

1:46 am

Lizlin

Hi Jilli :)

1:46 am

jillibus

hello Liz and demi

1:47 am

jillibus

so now what's the bo8? there's no S for a nice plural ;-(

1:48 am

flosey

back again, hi Liz and Demi

1:48 am

demi

haz clued it at 1:38, but I am yet to get it.

1:48 am

Lizlin

Ah! The 8 I don't have! In fact, I only have one 8!

1:49 am

jillibus

boI'll settle for a clue for the other 8, please!

1:49 am

jillibus

(forget that introductory bo)

1:49 am

Lizlin

That was the food related one! A meal Jilli - part breakfast, part a midday meal!

1:50 am

Lizlin

That's a br 8

1:51 am

jillibus

ty liz -- I had the first part -- didn't know it could be a verb, sigh. But NBT anyway!

1:51 am

Lizlin

WTG Jilli! I'll be back later. Look after yourself. Bye Demi. Wish Rich better :)

1:51 am

demi

see ya later liz.

1:53 am

jillibus

Bedtime for me...goodnight/day/evening all...*poof

2:12 am

gapeach

May I please have a clue for ca7-36 the 1st? Thanks

2:13 am

flosey

don't have it Peach

2:13 am

gapeach

Thanks anyway, flosey

2:17 am

Haz1558

ca7/36 - able to fall over?

2:19 am

Haz1558

Or able to plus a word that can mean either to stumble or a journey.

2:21 am

gapeach

Thanks so much, Haz.

2:21 am

Haz1558

You're welcome.

2:23 am

flosey

thanks Haz, odd to me

2:23 am

Haz1558

It's new to me as well.

2:38 am

gapeach

Well, my peeps, it's time for me to try to get some sleep. Have a great day or night. Thanks for all the help.

2:43 am

flosey

me too Peach, goodnight all, be back in the morning

2:45 am

Haz1558

Goodnight, sleep well.

3:29 am

lynxxx

hi Haz

3:41 am

Haz1558

Hello, lynxx. Sorry, I was flitting about doing things.

3:42 am

lynxxx

hi, morning for you - I understand

3:43 am

Haz1558

Yes, and for once the sun is shining.

3:43 am

Haz1558

We're starting to see a bit of a change in that it's getting lighter earlier both morning and evening.

3:43 am

lynxxx

hence your icon photo. It does seem as though you have all had a rather wet winter

3:44 am

Haz1558

It's been horrible. I just wanted to look at somewhere that was warm and sunny to remind myself that the sun DOES shine some places.

3:45 am

Haz1558

The fields are just sodden and farmers are starting to worry about how they're going to get sheep into fields again once they've lambed.

3:46 am

lynxxx

Lambing is March?

3:46 am

Haz1558

First lambs will start late December (some pedigree breeds), then Texels in February, hill sheep won't finish until the end of April. It's a long season.

3:48 am

lynxxx

Interesting, I thought the lambs would all be in Spring. Is that man's intervention - so we get to eat spring lamb?

3:49 am

Haz1558

Some breeds (Dorsets) can lamb twice a year, just to confuse the issue! And I suppose the spring lamb we eat is from the previous year.

3:50 am

lynxxx

I think maybe vets have got into the act - like to spread the workload - what do you think

3:51 am

Haz1558

That'll be it!

3:52 am

lynxxx

and are you getting excited about the new pup...does he have a name yet

3:53 am

Haz1558

Yes, he's called Dempsey. Just another 2 or 3 weeks to go. I'm drowning in paper at the minute with the Festival stuff, but once that's over it'll be time to get him settled in.

3:55 am

lynxxx

that thought will help you process the paper efficiently - and fast

3:55 am

Haz1558

The printer was making strange noises, it's not used to doing so much work!

3:56 am

lynxxx

I have found recently they need a break - do in smaller batches

3:56 am

Haz1558

Yes, I think that's the secret, they don't seem to appreciate doing too much at one go.

3:57 am

lynxxx

I was printing stuff with some color. In batches of 40 it was bleeding all over the place and going stripey. In batches of 20 it was perfect

3:58 am

Haz1558

I think everyone has an argument or two with their printer at one time or another.

4:00 am

Haz1558

I was so worried that this one was going to give up that I bought a new one (in the sale and not very expensive). The old one started behaving beautifully so I've yet to unpack the new one.

4:03 am

lynxxx

they are so cheap now..I bought a wifi one (b&w only) for $70. My 6 yo laptop was too old to run it so gave it to my son. Now have new laptap but using expensive printer I bought some years ago - happy to get my money back by using it.

4:04 am

Haz1558

Yes, the dearest element these days seems to be the ink.

4:06 am

lynxxx

Happy to have found a good local supplier online at a 1/4 of the cost of the recommended toners - I am not doing photos so don't care so much about quality

4:07 am

Haz1558

Goodness, that's a huge saving! I tend to buy ink online as well, although there's a good local business supplies place here that's fairly reasonable too.

4:09 am

lynxxx

I know - the cost of the inks was the reason why I put the expensive printer in the cupboard for a few years - very happy to find this source

4:11 am

Haz1558

Did somebody recommend it to you or did you just do some research?

4:13 am

lynxxx

just looked and as it is local it popped up on top...was actually trying originally to find one my husband had used ( which was twice as much)...obviously I recommend it to everyone now (though maybe not in Ireland!)

4:14 am

Haz1558

No, I imagine the shipping costs might just outweigh any savings!

4:18 am

Haz1558

Well, I must head off to get ready to go out. Enjoy the grid, a few interesting words along the way. See you again!

4:18 am

lynxxx

have a good day Haz

4:19 am

Haz1558

Thanks, bye!

4:39 am

sprite

good morning all :)

4:48 am

rbud

hi, sprite! how goes it?

4:48 am

sprite

hi rbud :)
Going ok here. My love has an inflammation of his leg, but it seems to be going in the right direction now. For the rest all is well.
How are you and yours?

4:50 am

rbud

not too bad. just the usual aches, pains, and screwups, lol. nothing a little money won't fix, for the most part.

4:50 am

sprite

ouch yes... :) We need a money blessing all over babble. Let it rain! (money!)

4:52 am

rbud

hubby took a spill the other night and broke his glasses and part of his top denture. (thus the need for money.) he's got some cuts and scrapes, but he's okay otherwise.

4:53 am

sprite

am glad he isn't hurt too badly. Hope he will heal up fast and you will be blessed with some unexpected money.

4:53 am

rbud

yes, I'm all for the money blessing! :)

5:02 am

sprite

that left side of the grid is very tight

5:04 am

lynxxx

hello Sprite & Rosebud

5:04 am

rbud

hiya, lynxxx

5:04 am

sprite

hello lyn :) xxx

5:05 am

rbud

hmmm, I find I can no longer get into my flicker account to add photos, they've done something tricky to the logging in. (haven't tried to get in for months)

5:06 am

sprite

I had to log in again some time ago too. But I did and now it works fine again.

5:09 am

rbud

well, I try, and it looks okay for a little bit, but then it veers off into creating a totally new account no matter what I do.

5:09 am

sprite

oh that stinks :(

5:10 am

rbud

I was just reading some "help" questions about it, and it looks like many people are having the same problem.

5:11 am

rbud

think I'll try emailing them to see if something can be done.

5:11 am

sprite

that is so irritating. Well, maybe they will fix it soon, if it is a general problem.

5:11 am

anything I can help with before I go?

5:46 am

cool.girl

clue for the bo8 and the te8 please

5:48 am

sprite

the bo8 is an odd one. Start with the Bo****an Rhapsody. Switch 3rd and 4rd letter. Add two letters at the end to make it rhyme with dyna****.

5:49 am

sprite

the te8 is a Hebrew plural. It means idols or images reverenced by the ancient Hebrews and kindred peoples, apparently as household gods.

5:51 am

6:03 am

Lizlin

I'll try and work on sprite's clue - bo + anagram of a word meaning half e.g. ****sphere + the last 2 letters of the explosive that sprite mentioned.

6:03 am

MollyL

bo + addicts go to r**ab + ter****s eat the wood in your house

6:03 am

Lizlin

How about some more help with the te 8 pls?

6:04 am

MollyL

te8 sounds like a kind of angel.

6:04 am

Lizlin

ty Molly :)

6:04 am

MollyL

Those cut and pasted definitions usually don't help me either.

6:05 am

Lizlin

As a Jew, I thought I ought to know it - could work out the ending but couldn't see what went before.

6:05 am

Lizlin

However, i didn't know the word!

6:06 am

Lizlin

Still missing one 8. I have bo 8, br 8 and the te 8. Can you tell me which i'm missing please?

6:06 am

gran

Clue please for ar 7/28

6:06 am

MollyL

That's okay Liz. There are probably a lot of Irish people who don't know the bo7/44 either. : )

6:07 am

Lizlin

Sorry, don't have it yet.

6:07 am

Lizlin

That's weird. I'd heard of the Irish one - think I'd read it in a book somewhere!

sandyloo

Actually i have 74 left and am really at an impass It has been so hot here today my brain has fallen out

6:26 am

Lizlin

Is the forecast for cooler weather?

6:26 am

sandyloo

not until thursday and I dont think it will be verymuch cooler, what is the weather like in queensland and where are you in queensland?

6:27 am

Lizlin

Gold Coast - about 27 C most days at the moment and not as humid as it has been!

6:27 am

sandyloo

Not humid here but dry and hot anddusty

6:28 am

Lizlin

Prefer dry heat to humid heat.

6:28 am

Lizlin

Not so sure about the dust though!

6:29 am

sandyloo

so do I - we once lived in Kununurra and have spent plenty of time in Queensland, sis in law lives in Maleney in the glass house mountains- nice weather there

6:29 am

Lizlin

Haven't been there yet. So much of Aus still to see!

6:30 am

Lizlin

100 words down and I think I'll leave it for tonight. Follow the advice of "those who know" and leave my computer for quite a while before going to bed!!!

6:30 am

sandyloo

We have seen most of it- Kununurra is humid and hot beyond belief but nice in may june and july

6:31 am

Lizlin

Winter's lovely here - mind you, I like it most of the time. Much prefer the climate to London!

6:46 am

periwinkle

6:46 am

sandyloo

Ruby, are you not by a warm fire?

6:47 am

rubyfoo

no, the fire is in the living room and I'm in y studio which had the door open (for Miss Spoiled Ruby)

6:48 am

sandyloo

I thought all you northern hemisphere people had central heating

6:48 am

rubyfoo

so did I until we bought this house and I never thought of asking...

6:49 am

sandyloo

oh no

6:50 am

sandyloo

Do you get really hot in the summer?

6:50 am

rubyfoo

usually have a few days in the 90's but there's aircon in the bedroom, and since it's usually in July, I just watch the Tour in bed

6:51 am

sandyloo

did you know that west australia has been named as one of the two hottest spots for shark attacks in the world we had four fatalities in as many months last year

6:51 am

rubyfoo

remind me not to go swimming there lol

6:52 am

rubyfoo

no sharks in Lake Annecy

6:52 am

sandyloo

I record the tour and watch it during the day if i can't stay awake at night- but often i do stay up

6:53 am

bichon

Hi.

6:53 am

bichon

I've heard that Australia now has Dengue Fever

6:53 am

rubyfoo

6:53 am

sandyloo

Hi bichon!

6:53 am

rubyfoo

rent

6:53 am

rubyfoo

prier

6:53 am

rubyfoo

oh, so sorry

6:54 am

bichon

Don't be sorry ruby. I road was finally plowed.

6:54 am

hurshy

we have one lane plowed

6:54 am

rubyfoo

we had your blizzard starting Sun night. It's beautiful, but what a mess

6:54 am

hurshy

as of yesterday afternoon that is

6:54 am

bichon

My road that is

6:55 am

bichon

How much snow did you get ruby?

6:55 am

rubyfoo

probably 2 ft on top of last week's 15"

6:55 am

rubyfoo

and there's ice underneath

6:56 am

bichon

Hope your road crews are better than ours.

6:56 am

rubyfoo

I'm guessing -- haven't been out of the house since Sunday

6:56 am

rubyfoo

no mail delivery or garbage pickup

6:56 am

bichon

It's unknown when children can get back to school. Buses can't run in narrow roads and there's snow build on the school roofs

6:57 am

bichon

We haven't had mail since Fri. Hopefully we'll get some today. I'm going to put the recycling out.

6:57 am

rubyfoo

amazingly, they didn't close the schools

6:58 am

rubyfoo

the good news is that our housekeeper comes on foot

6:58 am

bichon

Schools are always closed here. But next week is school vacation. What they're going to do, I don't know

6:58 am

rubyfoo

do they extend the school year in June?

6:59 am

hurshy

how can parents go to work if the kids are all unexpectedly home, too?

6:59 am

rubyfoo

I guess the parents take a snow day, too

6:59 am

bichon

They can extend the school year all the way to 6/28 or they can cancel April vacation

7:00 am

hurshy

it would make more sense to cancel next week's vacation... since we're having one now

7:00 am

rubyfoo

it astonishes me, not getting mail.

7:00 am

rubyfoo

In Binghamton, where the weather was awful, the mail was always delivered

7:01 am

bichon

The problem for next week is that some people have made reservations on planes, hotels, etc.

7:01 am

rubyfoo

but schools closed if 6" fell because the school buses couldn't do the hills safely

7:01 am

bichon

ruby, you know the rule. The worse the climate the better the snow removal. My friend in Maine has had her road cleared since Sat.

7:02 am

rubyfoo

lots of Fr words in here: medoc etc

7:02 am

hurshy

but in maine they didn't get as much snow did they?

7:02 am

rubyfoo

the worst of Bing. winter was the dreaded "black ice". I fell at least once a year

7:02 am

hurshy

don't forget chien ruby!

7:03 am

bichon

While we got 3', maybe they had a few inches less

7:03 am

rubyfoo

I didn't see it, hurshy, lol

7:03 am

hurshy

ah.

7:04 am

hurshy

well they are going to have to start planning for this more. climate change.

7:05 am

rubyfoo

they don't seem to realize that more snow and other storms come from global warming, just like excessive heat and drought

7:05 am

sandyloo

sorry I had connection problems

7:05 am

sandyloo

at least in the heat we still get the mail

7:06 am

sandyloo

it has been really hot here in aus this year - breaking many records

7:06 am

rubyfoo

I can't remember what it feels like to be warm

7:06 am

rubyfoo

wow, you guys made the first half go very fast, but still no big bo's

7:07 am

sandyloo

I cant remember what it feels like to be cold and I love winter clothes

7:07 am

hurshy

silly ruby, don't you have blankets that you curl up under so you can feel warm anyway?

7:08 am

rubyfoo

of course, hurshy, but it's hard to do paperwork wrapped in a blanket and under a duvet

7:08 am

sandyloo

that is one thing you can always wear extra clothes or extra blankets but even if you run around naked you still feel hot

7:08 am

rubyfoo

I'm warmer when I go outside (rarely), in my "furs" hah NB

7:08 am

hurshy

you probably shouldn't run if you are trying to stay cool :)

7:09 am

sandyloo

lol

7:09 am

sandyloo

I try not to do it as it frightens the neighbours

7:09 am

rubyfoo

we're all imagining sandy running naked while we're looking out at deep drifts

7:10 am

sandyloo

dont imagine - it is too scary

7:10 am

rubyfoo

speaking of furs, ermine is a phantom

7:11 am

hurshy

this grid is much harder than yesterday's

7:11 am

rubyfoo

yesterday was the first day I missed in a long time. The day was too fraught

7:11 am

sandyloo

I agree, I have 66 left and cannot seem to get more- I have to go to bed tho

7:12 am

rubyfoo

g'nite sandy, see you soon

7:12 am

rubyfoo

I'm leaving to go up and get warm!

7:12 am

sandyloo

maybe a goodnite glass of wine then ofto sleep nite all

7:12 am

rubyfoo

*woof* or "oof" as the chiens say

7:16 am

3:29 pm

uusue2

hi again all, did a lot of book sorting today

3:30 pm

lynxxx

morning everyone

3:30 pm

lynxxx

hi Sue - in preparation for your move?

3:30 pm

uusue2

hi lynxxx!

3:31 pm

Soodle

Hi Lynn & Sue. :-)

3:31 pm

uusue2

Yep! First time I have deliberately gotten rid of a lot of books. I still have a lot, though.

3:31 pm

uusue2

hi soodle!

3:32 pm

lynxxx

We lugged around a mountain of books from place to place for years. It really is silly if you don't refread them a lot, so much weight and storage to consider. We now only have a few favourites

3:33 pm

uusue2

clothes are next, I think.

3:33 pm

lynxxx

when is the move?

3:33 pm

Soodle

<--- Behind the times! I didn't know you were moving, Sue.

3:34 pm

uusue2

we'll spend the month of March moving. New place will be ready March 1, and we have to be out of this house at the end of March.

3:34 pm

uusue2

Lost the house to bankruptcy, soodle. In the end it will be a good thing; the old house needs a lot of work and I never would have been able to sell it.

3:35 pm

lynxxx

nice to have a month to do it gradually

3:36 pm

uusue2

It is indeed, lynxxx. And the new house is less than half a mile away so stuff won't really even have to be packed.

3:36 pm

Soodle

((((( oh Sue)))) that must have been so stressful. Best of luck with the new home. :-)

3:37 pm

uusue2

thanks, soodle! We finally went and looked at it over the weekend; it will be really nice. Has a nice breezy porch and a finished basement, so tons of room.

3:37 pm

periwinkle

sounds nice, sue.

3:38 pm

periwinkle

I would love to have a porch, deck or balcony

3:40 pm

Soodle

Sounds lovely.

3:40 pm

lynxxx

really - capri isn't accepted!?

3:40 pm

uusue2

I tried that too, lynxxx, must be a proper name

3:41 pm

lynxxx

perhaps Enable isn't old enought to remember the pants

3:42 pm

uusue2

I was wondering about that, I suppose even the pants are a proper noun?

3:43 pm

dianedecoder

I think it would always need an "s" on it.... don't think there could be one capri ;-)

3:44 pm

lynxxx

well ascot is accepted and that was named after a place

3:44 pm

uusue2

ha, you are right, diane, it would accept capris. Go figure.

3:44 pm

lynxxx

hi Diane, you are probably right - like trews I suppose

3:44 pm

dianedecoder

well, it "might" accept capris.... lol

3:45 pm

dianedecoder

hi everyone :-)

3:47 pm

uusue2

ok, I am going to wander off for a bit, bbl

3:47 pm

lynxxx

hah - an anagram of the pants works though

3:47 pm

lynxxx

bye Sue

3:48 pm

Soodle

Going to do a Crossy on it now, & give you a useless fact :- Trousers/pants/ drawers etc used to come in 2 parts, a part for the front & a part for the rear. Hence, 'a pair of pants' etc!

3:49 pm

dianedecoder

thanks, Soodle :-)

3:49 pm

Soodle

Hi Diane (((())))

3:51 pm

lynxxx

Thats interesting

3:51 pm

dianedecoder

hi Soodle :-)

3:52 pm

MollyL

And you only used 2 grid words in that Soodle. Well done.

3:53 pm

Soodle

I always wondered why one garment was referred to as a 'pair'. Taking self and assorted pairs of nether region garments off to the PB.....

3:55 pm

Soodle

Echo-y voice from PB 'Hi Molly'

3:58 pm

MollyL

Okay now grab a bowl of gumbo, put on your Mardi Gras mask and belly up to the bar. Cajun two step music to commence playing shortly.

3:59 pm

Soodle

Way-Hay!!!! Partay on!!!!

3:59 pm

MollyL

I used to work with a woman who had a dress made out of Mardi Gras beads. The whole dress. It was very cool.

4:03 pm

Soodle

Cant access that link from the iPad, Lynn, but have book marked it for later

4:04 pm

Soodle

Golly. A bead dress must have been a bit uncomfortable....

4:05 pm

lynxxx

but better than bead capris

4:08 pm

Soodle

Lol , true, Lynn, true!!

4:09 pm

MollyL

Never have understood capris. Are they long shorts or short pants? And why wear either one?

4:10 pm

lynxxx

to cover unattractive knees of course - and show off shapely ankles

4:10 pm

Soodle

Short pants, I think. About calf length.

4:12 pm

lynxxx

and, of course, to lookjust a little like Audrey Hepburn and who wouldn't want that

4:13 pm

Soodle

Being in possession of unattractive knees, and singularly unshapely ankles, my wardrobe is Capri-free!

4:16 pm

MollyL

Soodle, we get the last installment of Downton next Sunday so I will email you after that.

4:16 pm

Soodle

I'll look forward to that Molls. :-)

4:17 pm

BzznBea

Is that the last airing for This season, Molly?

4:18 pm

MollyL

Yes, it's the Season 3 finale. Aired as a Christmas Special in the UK, although it has nothing to do with Christmas.

4:19 pm

BzznBea

I still have a two or three episodes on DVR still to watch.

4:19 pm

Soodle

Oh. Have you seen any spoilers?

4:19 pm

MollyL

Yep, I know the big spoiler. That is the problem with it all airing months ahead in the UK.

4:19 pm

BzznBea

I only saw one on facebook.

4:21 pm

BzznBea

Yesterday I watched the episode where Sybil had the baby.

4:21 pm

Soodle

Clamping lips together......

4:22 pm

BzznBea

Thanks, Soodle. =)

Just saw on the news that lightening struck the Vatican hours after the Pope resigned.

*sneaks into pb lookiing for king cake*

4:27 pm

MollyL

Happy Mardi Gras TO! Allons danser!

4:27 pm

72 Temple Owl

why is the catholic church a source of endless fascination here? i don't here olksa talkng about jews or lutherans or baptists or even atheists.

4:27 pm

72 Temple Owl

Allons-danser, molly!

4:28 pm

72 Temple Owl

mardis gras dance sturday night!

4:29 pm

MollyL

Not sure, although I think the Pope stepping down was pretty big news and it was discussed in a lot of places on the internet yesterday. I'm still not over the people who are saying "he is just retiring". Like it's no big deal.

4:29 pm

BzznBea

I'm not fascinated by the Catholic church. But I am interested in current events.

4:29 pm

Soodle

When my daughter showed me the pic of the lightning strike on the Vatican, I was sure it was photo shopped. Seems it was genuine, though.

4:30 pm

lynxxx

well its no big deal to non-Catholiocs. The fact that he is retiring just seems sensible to me

4:30 pm

BzznBea

Just saw it on video, Soodle.

4:30 pm

MollyL

I also find that I am a lot more interested in what practicing Catholics have to say about this, as it affects them directly.

4:31 pm

BzznBea

Me too, Molly.

4:32 pm

MollyL

Popes don't "retire". Which is what made it such stunning news.

4:32 pm

72 Temple Owl

i mean, it is a ree country. the skinheads can march in dkkie and elsewhere and spew their hate speech as can westboro baptist. but i think many would agree that it is not right though legal. the two have no bearing. and this is why i left last night and why i babble by a thin thread.

4:32 pm

Nef

Hello Everybody. Just got here about 15 minutes ago; Grandson is gone for a few days again. Love that kid immensely, but am glad when he goes..

4:32 pm

MollyL

Not getting you TO, what happened last night?

4:32 pm

Soodle

Yes, but the fact this is the first time a pope has resigned since the Middle Ages is interesting. That, and the courtcase involving the popes butler late last year....What DID the butler see?????

4:33 pm

72 Temple Owl

and why i no longer speak to certain folks although i am civil.

4:33 pm

Nef

And I'm a practicing Catholic; so here's my 2 cents: Good for him for retiring.

4:33 pm

72 Temple Owl

one learns a lot when one listens vice chatting.

4:34 pm

lynxxx

lol Nef. and Hello

4:34 pm

72 Temple Owl

i don't care but i won't let the haters off the hook in the guise of free speech.

4:35 pm

A wall that you are going to paint on which an "undercoat" has not been applied would be considered un8.

Smores, I thought last night's Bones was one of the better episodes in a long time. The writing on that show has gotten so flat.

4:55 pm

Nef

I don't care Molly. I'm not that fussy. :-)

4:56 pm

BzznBea

Missed last night's Bones. Do you watch The Following?

4:56 pm

Oh I didn't know that, I thought it started next week.

4:58 pm

MollyL

2-hour episode it was good. You can watch it on Fox's web site, or Hulu.

4:58 pm

smores

5:03 pm

wvteach

5:03 pm

wvteach

5:04 pm

BzznBea

You make it fresh?

5:05 pm

wvteach

start with the sauerkraut from packages, then drain and rinse and then add all the other things

5:05 pm

BzznBea

Sounds yummy. I've just got Hubs to like cabbage. Baby steps...

5:06 pm

wvteach

husband got me to like sauerkraut - and now we have it 2-3 times a month (i guess)

5:07 pm

wvteach

Haven't had cooked cabbage for awhile - loved making red cabbage, but haven't done that in a really long time

5:08 pm

BzznBea

I like to just steam mine a bit then drain and toss with grapeseed oil.

5:11 pm

wvteach

time to go get the dinner on the table - BBL

5:15 pm

MollyL

I like cabbage, but just the smell of sauerkraut makes me queasy.

5:17 pm

MollyL

Soodle had pancakes for Shrove Tuesday, good for her.

5:19 pm

BzznBea

Back home in KS, they have a Pancake race on Shrove Tuesday. The women have to wear high heels and flip the pancake so many times over the short course.
