1:17 am

rururocks

what do you mean your first run through?

1:18 am

grannyrose

i work my way through the grid letter by letter, finding all i can from each letter. start at the top le4, finish bottom right.

1:19 am

rururocks

ah.

1:19 am

rururocks

I bang out the 4's first and then hit the biggies usually

1:20 am

rururocks

1:20 am

grannyrose

1:20 am

grannyrose

ps5?

1:21 am

rururocks

po8 actually

1:22 am

grannyrose

you are kidding? oh wait, you don't have the po8 in your hemisphere?

1:22 am

rururocks

nope

1:23 am

grannyrose

or a dad who loved to teach his kids about nature? my dad was great like that. he grew up on the land....and passed a lot of his knowledge onto us, plus some of his grandkiddies.

1:24 am

grannyrose

knowledge to the grandkiddies, not grandkiddies to us....lol

1:25 am

rururocks

I have 4 ra and 8 ro.. and 10 re.. missing one

1:28 am

rururocks

re + not purchase

1:29 am

grannyrose

i missed a coupleof obvious plurals, and some not quite so obvious.

1:29 am

helensgirlkid

I thought you were in the northern hemisphere, ru

1:30 am

grannyrose

g'day helen

1:30 am

helensgirlkid

and you, rose

1:31 am

helensgirlkid

my tidying up at the end is always full of plurals!

1:32 am

rururocks

I'm in the northern hemisphere yes.. never heard that word though

1:32 am

rururocks

now just s's

1:32 am

grannyrose

nice, ruru

1:34 am

helensgirlkid

They usually go with just the n5 s4 - but poetry and a lot of historical maps use the po8

1:35 am

grannyrose

helen, al4 over the south po4. we have a bright one here too.

1:36 am

grannyrose

and considering the po5 have both moved that particular bright one should be visible to those who live nearer to the equator.

1:36 am

helensgirlkid

yes, I was just looking it up - P. australis or Octantis (sp?) - i gather it's not as bright.

1:37 am

grannyrose

yup, you found it.

1:37 am

helensgirlkid

trying to find the n. s. in the middle of a city, I'm really glad it isn't dimmer!

1:38 am

rururocks

nice grid

1:38 am

grannyrose

yeah, ikr?

1:38 am

grannyrose

WTG RURU!!!

1:39 am

helensgirlkid

(cheering) ru!

1:40 am

grannyrose

we live on the outskirts of melbourne...well sort of....so most of our st4s are visible.

1:41 am

grannyrose

helen did you google the magnetic po4? it's somewhere down near canada? i think, at the moment.

1:42 am

grannyrose

our planet actually wobbles on it's axis....scary thought that

1:43 am

helensgirlkid

i ahdn't looked it up at all recently, but yes, it's further in our direction right now - I hope nobody decides to try to use that the decide who owns which bit of the Artic Ocean seabed!

1:44 am

helensgirlkid

Arctic - amazingly hard to type.

1:45 am

grannyrose

lol.....they would lose again in the future as it tracks north again.

1:48 am

helensgirlkid

as long as it doesn't do a flip north-to-south!

1:53 am

grannyrose

what an interesting thought helen.

1:53 am

grannyrose

apologies, have been putting away the clean dishes.

1:54 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs, Rose - how are you doing?

1:54 am

Lizlin

Hi all

1:54 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} liz girl. heart rate back to normal, have stopped being so weepy.

1:55 am

Lizlin

Big shock

1:55 am

grannyrose

and you, dear friend? had a good day?

1:55 am

Lizlin

Quiet. Out tomorrow for my bday.

1:55 am

grannyrose

ya think? i expect him to bury me, not vice versa....lol

1:55 am

Lizlin

Lol

1:56 am

grannyrose

oh??? tomorrow is your b'day? how many?or should i not ask?

1:56 am

grannyrose

you kept that close to your chest, hin.

1:56 am

Lizlin

I'm a year younger than you

1:57 am

grannyrose

which is why we get along so well....same mind set??

1:57 am

Lizlin

Big one last year.

1:57 am

Lizlin

True

1:59 am

grannyrose

maybe we can me4 in the middle for the next big one...what fun!!

1:59 am

Lizlin

Hope we me4 before then! Long wa4.

1:59 am

Lizlin

But yes, that'd be fun.

2:00 am

grannyrose

oh, you bet we will, hin. *wriggles with excitement* like next year.

2:00 am

Lizlin

That's something good to look forward to.

2:01 am

Lizlin

Lunch at Fingal Head tomorrow - my idyllic place. Well one of them.

2:01 am

grannyrose

any where there is food is good...lol

2:02 am

Lizlin

This is so laid back. Often see Dolphins swimmming in the river there. Then hopefully a beach walk afterwards.

2:03 am

grannyrose

a slow one for me, walk that is.

2:04 am

grannyrose

omg, on the news...it appears that the mother in cairns is suspected of the killing of the children.

2:04 am

Lizlin

You'll make it to the lighthouse. Peaceful place with great views of the ocean. Often see Ospreys there.

2:05 am

grannyrose

dolphins are all i wanna see....

2:05 am

Lizlin

Often see them surfing there.

2:05 am

Lizlin

Without boards, of course.

2:06 am

grannyrose

lol....don says he can't see the porpoise in that...what a pleb!!

2:06 am

Lizlin

Lol

2:10 am

grannyrose

oh, and liz. i got on the scales this am. have lost 1.5kg in the last week. just from the nausea associated with the pain.

2:11 am

Lizlin

Good weight loss but not for that reason.

2:13 am

grannyrose

after the new year, don and i are talking about joining weight watchers. we simply must lo4 this weight.

2:14 am

grannyrose

we were considering lite'n'easy. have done it before, but the cost is prohibitive.

2:14 am

Lizlin

Great idea to do it together to encourage each other. Just don't make it a race. Hubby loses much quicker than me - the b'tard!

2:15 am

grannyrose

lol, poor hubby...

2:16 am

Lizlin

poor him?! I'm the one who wants to lose.

2:17 am

grannyrose

yeah, i know...but he has to wear the guilt while you do all the hard work, and he lo4s quicker.

2:17 am

Lizlin

He doesn't wear the guilt. I don't blame either.

2:18 am

Lizlin

Just get jealous - well a tad.

2:20 am

grannyrose

lol....i don't have a problem. himself takes a while to shed the weight.

2:20 am

Lizlin

Well wish you both luck with it.

2:22 am

grannyrose

thanx hin. btw, the more pics i see of you, the more i feel you and i have connected somewhere along the line. it's really weird.

2:23 am

Lizlin

That is weird. I hope you find the link sometime soon. I'm fascinated.

2:25 am

grannyrose

any relations called samantha or sam?

2:26 am

Lizlin

Not that I know of.

2:27 am

grannyrose

it was a long stretch...i just remember the red hair, the smile, and the general shape of your beautiful face.

2:27 am

grannyrose

do you believe in previous lives?

2:27 am

Lizlin

Aw! You're making me blush.

2:28 am

Lizlin

Uncertain.

2:28 am

Lizlin

Hair really very dark brown.

2:28 am

grannyrose

*shaking head* no love...i can see you as plain as day, hin. it's so frustrating!

2:29 am

grannyrose

ahhh, a clue....you with auburn hair....that is what i remember.

2:30 am

Lizlin

I've been this colour since my 20s

2:31 am

grannyrose

no...i see you in your 30's...

2:31 am

Lizlin

OK - perhaps I'll send you a pic from around then.

2:32 am

grannyrose

it might help, hin...this is just about killing me....lol

2:32 am

Lizlin

I certainly hasn't been to Aus before Dec 04

2:33 am

grannyrose

and i don't think i have internet access much before 2004...

2:33 am

rururocks

Sounds like the english language is being killed aroynd here :D

2:34 am

Lizlin

Well perhaps we'll work it out sometime.

2:34 am

grannyrose

so....maybe it is some distant relative of yours, from my school years and/or my career?

2:34 am

Lizlin

Lol Ru - I noticed hasn't.

2:35 am

Lizlin

Career perhaps.

2:35 am

grannyrose

go to sleep ruru....liz ignore him...it's okay. it's late, ruru. well latish...

2:35 am

Lizlin

Lol

2:36 am

Lizlin

I wouldn't ignore Ru. That'd be Ru-de

2:36 am

grannyrose

oh, dear, liz...lol

2:36 am

rururocks

I is thinking about my past lives

2:37 am

Lizlin

:)

2:38 am

grannyrose

poor ruru.... come over to the dark side....lolol

2:39 am

Lizlin

BBL. HUGS. SLEEP WELL

2:40 am

Lizlin

BBL. Hugs. Sleep well Ru.

2:41 am

grannyrose

ditto...dinner time

2:41 am

rururocks

Didnt mean to run liz off

3:25 am

grannyrose

3:53 am

sprite

3:54 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs Sprite - good timing again. Just here for a few mins before we watch The Hobbit in preparation for the new film.

3:54 am

sprite

oh how lovely, Liz! Enjoy... both the dvds and the movie.

3:55 am

Lizlin

Have to hope that they've got the 2nd DVD in on Tuesday, when we go back.

3:55 am

Looking forward to the movie and the added excitement of seeing Hobbiton and some of the scenery next year.

3:56 am

sprite

3:58 am

sprite

3:59 am

grannyrose

all good, my dear. did you see my latest email to you yet?

3:59 am

sprite

haven't opened my email yet. Let me check.

4:01 am

sprite

omg darling. What a scare. Let me hold you very close for a minute.

4:01 am

grannyrose

liz, could you, me and ruru be in NZ at the same time? what an adventure that would be?

4:02 am

grannyrose

thanx darling sprite....too close to be comfortable....he is way too young.

4:02 am

Lizlin

That would be amazing Rose - our dates are fixed, as is our schedule.

4:03 am

Lizlin

I know Ru was talking about going to NZ. Has he fixed a time?

4:03 am

grannyrose

liz, send me your dates....i will email ruru, and see when he is going to be there.

4:04 am

Lizlin

I'll do that tomorrow.

4:04 am

grannyrose

sprite, again the sibs pull together....i love my family.

4:04 am

sprite

definitely too close for comfort.

4:05 am

sprite

ta

4:05 am

sprite

4:06 am

grannyrose

4:06 am

Lizlin

Hugs, ladies. Hobbit calling :)

4:06 am

sprite

4:06 am

grannyrose

lolol....sleep well liz girl. catch you tomorrow.

4:06 am

sprite

*hugs Liz* Enjoy! And tell your lovely husband hi from me.

4:08 am

grannyrose

exactly, sprite. it was such a nice easy peasy grid. the words just flowed. unfortunately i missed some obvious plurals, so beware.

4:08 am

grannyrose

then again....i am teaching my grandmother how to do suck eggs....lol

4:10 am

sprite

well you know good ole granny... forgetful enough to need the reminder, grin

4:11 am

grannyrose

gosh i love you darling.

4:14 am

sprite

it is mutual, rose. *hug*

4:17 am

grannyrose

sweetie, you are such a wonderful friend. thanx for that.

4:19 am

sprite

and that is mutual too. Your friendship brightens my days.

4:24 am

grannyrose

sprite, dear, you will never know the depths of my thanx that you have come into my life. xoxox

4:24 am

sprite

awww shucks! Now you got me all tearing up. Can't wait till next year. I so hope Don can let go of his fear enough to let you guys travel.

4:27 am

rubyfoo

good morning. Burt let Raffie loose this AM, but fortunately, she is such a good dog that she waited for me to catch up. If it had been Rufe, it would have been another story

4:28 am

grannyrose

i think he has...

4:28 am

rubyfoo

I am still out of breath.

4:28 am

grannyrose

ugh, ruby...{{hugs}} my dear

4:28 am

sprite

good morning ruby. Poor you. Old Burt really needs a minder, to watch his every move :(

4:29 am

sprite

that's awesome news, rose!

4:29 am

rubyfoo

I can't get into my e-mail (can't remember the yahoo password) but, Rose, do you know anything about pleurisy caused by an old chest injury? I think I may have discovered what is causing my constant chest pain

4:31 am

grannyrose

no my dear ruby...a new one for me...sending lots of xoxox. i so hope you find out if it is the reason.

4:32 am

grannyrose

sprite, my love....next year's travel depends on my hips, i think.

4:32 am

rubyfoo

I googled it and the symotoms are exact and the causation certainly possible as I re-injured my sternum in Sept. and it has been ever since

4:34 am

sprite

I understand, rose. Here's to hoping!

4:37 am

sprite

ruby, can you go and have it checked out?

4:41 am

rubyfoo

My first thought was that it was a bone problem (the big C) but I had x rays and they were clear. But then, yesterday, I thought of pleurisy as the extent of the soreness is so wide -- shoulder to shoulder and neck past the ribs.

4:41 am

grannyrose

have taken meds for the night...yawning hugely....not responsible anything written here. xoxox my dear friends. if you see our beloved puglet please hug and kiss her for me..

4:42 am

rubyfoo

This is why doctors hate the Internet!

4:42 am

rubyfoo

However, I will see if there is any treatment beyond managing the pain and then I'll look for a chest specialist as my local GP is not the sharpest blade in the drawer

4:44 am

rubyfoo

ooh, just found po8 on my own!

4:45 am

rubyfoo

time for lunch, ee you later

4:45 am

rubyfoo

4:45 am

sprite

night night dear rose *hugs* Sleep well.

4:45 am

sprite

bye ruby, good luck

5:17 am

8:01 am

MollyL

I think she and Gene Wilder were one of Hollywood's best couples

8:02 am

Uneaixoise

totally agree :-)

8:02 am

MLFAN17

i agree Molly

8:03 am

MLFAN17

i am over 100 by one word at the moment:)

8:15 am

MollyL

Great clip Une. It shows how funny those two can be without saying a word.

8:16 am

MLFAN17

steve martina and gildna radner are two comic geniuses. She is such a huge loss to the entertainment business and steve martin witll be too

8:18 am

MLFAN17

martin sorry

8:19 am

MollyL

Is Steve Martin sick or something?

8:19 am

MLFAN17

sick in what way?

8:26 am

MollyL

You said "Steve Martin will be too" like he's dying??

8:28 am

Uneaixoise

noooo, i think she just meant eventually . . .

8:29 am

Uneaixoise

interesting how he left comedy behind (pretty much) and reinvented himself as actor/playwright/author

8:29 am

MimiCat

I will miss Robin Williams forever.

8:30 am

MimiCat

Funny...I just referenced Gilda's Roseann Roseannadanna yesterday.

8:30 am

Uneaixoise

OMG absolutely -- and I weep every time someone does a tribute

8:31 am

MollyL

I'm afraid the days of great comedians (and great musicians) are behind us. The up and coming group just aren't funny to me.

8:31 am

MimiCat

So do I...what a mind he had.

8:31 am

MimiCat

I agree, Molly. Too much swearing and too little actual cleverness.

8:32 am

MimiCat

I mean, how often are we supposed to think F...is funny?

8:33 am

MollyL

The few times I have seen Saturday Night Live over the past ten years, I haven't laughed much. The only times I did involved Fallon and Timberlake.

I've seen it live as a repertory presentation and loved it. Also have seen Cats many times. The white cat, Victoria, came and put her head in my (at the time) 10-year-old daughter's lap...she has never forgotten that.

8:44 am

Uneaixoise

11:30 am

Really sucks to have them as an adult. Just the bottom deck, but still annoying. Reliving my childhood!

11:31 am

MollyL

Try getting your jaw spaced first if you really want to have the ultimate braces fun. : (

11:31 am

rururocks

braces?

11:31 am

72 Temple Owl

do you have the old fashioned ones?

11:31 am

MLFAN17

only on the bottom? i ended up having to have mine removed early because it wasnt helping my teeth as much as they wanted them to

11:31 am

MLFAN17

mol;y you mean wearing a spacer?

11:32 am

Judi

They are clear, with a "tooth colored" wire. Had a front tooth extracted on the bottom. Braces to pull everything back together.

11:32 am

MollyL

No, they stretched out my entire upper jaw because my bottom teeth were in front of my tops. As a result, I have had TMJ ever since.

11:32 am

rururocks

I always pictured judi as toothsome too

11:32 am

72 Temple Owl

i've tyed with the idea

I have to re-enter words every day. I don't play all at once, I play in dribs and drabs during the day. Most of the time, when I come back to the puzzle, words I have entered earlier have vanished. This site really needs a tune up.

6:15 pm

mattygroves

I'm never sure if I've re-entered them or if I simply thought I'd entered them

6:15 pm

PaulN

thanks molly for clue.

6:16 pm

MollyL

Since this started happening, I copy my word list whenever I am done playing for a while. Inevitably, when I come back, some words are gone.
