5:52 am

herinfernallady

5:53 am

herinfernallady

"My Account" being on the very top line. (I dont mean my account) but yours ... sorry if I am confusing you.

4:06 pm

Pdav

No you're not. And you are correct but it requires an upgrade.

4:07 pm

mo

wv re8 ... when you get anything you re8 it!

4:08 pm

wvteach

4:08 pm

mo

I am glad you understood Pdav.

4:10 pm

Pdav

I'm glad you're glad!!!!

4:10 pm

Pdav

:-)

4:10 pm

mo

sorry wvt ... misread your request ,,,, there is a de8/50

4:11 pm

wvteach

thnx - got the DE 8

4:14 pm

mo

there is a de8/55 and a de8/50.

4:15 pm

mo

Pdav ...where are you from?

4:17 pm

wvteach

4:17 pm

Pdav

Uk, Manchester

4:17 pm

Pdav

4:18 pm

mo

4:18 pm

wvteach

got it - thnx

4:19 pm

wvteach

haid

4:19 pm

wvteach

4:20 pm

wvteach

sorry - but at least not a word

4:20 pm

mo

Pdav ... not far from me ... I am in Nottinghamshire but originally from Yorkshire.

4:21 pm

mo

glad to be of help wvteach.

4:21 pm

Pdav

Yorkshire. Not far but a million miles away!!! :-)

4:22 pm

mo

:-)

4:23 pm

Pdav

I'm in Failsworth near Oldham. Yorks is only over the hill but it's a different world!

4:25 pm

Pdav

It's all "rugby" over there

4:25 pm

mo

I have heard of Oldham but not Failsworth.

4:26 pm

Pdav

Failsworth sits between Manchester and Oldham on the A62. Bang in the middle

4:27 pm

mo

what about football ... the Sheffield teams for a start.

4:29 pm

Pdav

Indeed!!! What about them?????? :-)

4:31 pm

mo

indeed!! I am not a lover of football but I thought Yorkshire was known for its football not rurgby.

4:31 pm

mo

sorry rugby!

4:33 pm

mo

I could also mention Rotherham .... but I wont :-)!!!!

4:34 pm

Pdav

Nah, it's proper rugby country is Yorkshire. They have football but rugby is their passion.

4:35 pm

Pdav

I have got just under 10% of todays words!!!

4:36 pm

wvteach

todays grid is not an easy grid - just do as much as you can - I find that each day I learn new words that I can spot in future grids

4:37 pm

mo

you will improve with practice.

4:38 pm

mo

I agree with wvteach ... and you can always ask for clues.

4:41 pm

Pdav

I'm getting the hang of it now, just by guessing at words that I wouldn't expect. Just got one by adding a "d" to a word I already had!!!

4:42 pm

mo

unfortunatelly I have to go now, but I hope to see you again Pdav and i hope you stick with it. There are so many lovely and helpful people on this site. Good luck everyone and goodnight.

4:44 pm

Pdav

Goodnight x

4:45 pm

wvteach

rule of thumb - add endings - -s, -d, -er, -ing - after i get a word i also look for rhyming words

Hi, Bugs, car and all

5:54 pm

car.eeyore

Hi Jaxx!

5:55 pm

jaxx7

How are you, car?

5:56 pm

car.eeyore

I'm doing OK. You?

5:57 pm

Roses6

Hello. Just started today's grid.

5:57 pm

jaxx7

A bit overwhelmed with all the Drs appointments but this week is free of needles and BP machines and the sun has been shining. Spring has finally arrived

5:57 pm

car.eeyore

Hello Roses!

5:58 pm

car.eeyore

Good to hear Jaxx! Keep smiling!

5:58 pm

jaxx7

Hi, Roses

5:58 pm

car.eeyore

(not the overwhelmed part though)

5:58 pm

Roses6

Hi car, jaxx.

5:58 pm

jaxx7

I look the other way when the needle goes in. No he7 am I!

5:58 pm

Bugsaw

Hi Jaxx and roses. I am sorry to have missed your entrance!

5:59 pm

jaxx7

never mind, you are here now

5:59 pm

Roses6

Hi Bugs.

5:59 pm

Bugsaw

I have missed a bit here, jaxx. Are the doctors looking for the cause of something or are they trying to cure something. I am sorry you are getting poked so much

6:01 pm

Bugsaw

we are having sun today too and it is nice because it was warm, not just sunny

6:01 pm

jaxx7

I have excess calcium in my blood. They suspect a growth on the parathyroid but I have more tests to have. before I see the consultant on 22nd may

6:01 pm

car.eeyore

Spoke too soon! Back is acting up. Talk to you all later!

6:02 pm

Bugsaw

Jaxx, I sure hope it is an easy fix. On the good side, does the extra calcium mean you have good strong bones?

6:03 pm

jaxx7

It has been warm here too but this evening the temp has dropped a bit. The flowers are out and the birds are pairing off so I hope it all keeps going, no sudden frosts.

6:05 pm

jaxx7

I do, Bugs, though I shouldn't have as the calcium has to come from somewhere. if I delay the op I could develop kidney stones so I won't be delaying as Kidney stones are painful.

6:07 pm

jaxx7

It is old age my dear. Although one of my daughter's co-workers upset her by saying I don't look old enough to be her mother. It is the pink hair effect.

6:08 pm

Bugsaw

I have never had them but I understand that kidney stones are the worst pain so I am with you to get going on the fix.

6:08 pm

Bugsaw

Best wishes that it happens soon and does not disrupt your life too much.

6:09 pm

jaxx7

One of my friends said the pain is worse than giving birth.

6:09 pm

jaxx7

I don't like this grid.

6:12 pm

mixi6

nasty one jaxx.

6:13 pm

Bugsaw

I guess we should all brush up on our Lamaze breathing in case it happens

6:14 pm

jaxx7

I have kept coming back to it all day but i still have 59 words left.

6:14 pm

bpalosky

reave

6:15 pm

jaxx7

Thanks bp, only 58 now.

6:15 pm

mixi6

6:16 pm

BzznBea

119 let here. =)

6:16 pm

jaxx7

make it a past one, bp, and you have another

6:18 pm

jaxx7

have you got the French exercise book, Bzz?

6:19 pm

Bugsaw

thanks jaxx

6:19 pm

BzznBea

French? Exercise? Ha!

6:19 pm

jaxx7

Glad to help, Bugs

6:26 pm

rururocks

*everyone after me.. open ze wine and slice the fromage* (French exercise)

6:27 pm

Bugsaw

ooh, I am in with these exercises ruru

6:27 pm

rururocks

we'll practice soon bugs :D

6:27 pm

jaxx7

Quel fromage, Ru

6:28 pm

jaxx7

I am in with you if the red is Fitou.

6:28 pm

Bugsaw

I should have an email because I have nothing to add but anticipation at this point.

6:28 pm

rururocks

<has a certain affinois to French exercise

6:28 pm

rururocks

I like Fitou.. and Minervoise

6:28 pm

jaxx7

How about French letters/

6:29 pm

rururocks

minervois

6:29 pm

jaxx7

You will have to explain that one to me.

6:30 pm

rururocks

Minervois is an appellation near Fitou.. more or less the same grapes.. but with more granitic soil

6:30 pm

BzznBea

Hatway hetay eckhay?

6:30 pm

jaxx7

Thought that was a Greek Goddess, or was that Minerva?

6:30 pm

Bugsaw

did I miss the bit where we went from wine to French letters? I am so confused!!

6:31 pm

rururocks

might be named after the greek goddess ?

6:32 pm

jaxx7

Could be, quite easily. Fitou is the one red wine I can rely on not to give me a headache.

6:32 pm

rururocks

interesting

6:32 pm

rururocks

have you tried taking benedryl before drinking red wine?

6:33 pm

jaxx7

No. Won't they clash?

6:34 pm

rururocks

no.. not unless you're one of the types who gets sleepy on benedryl.. it blocks the histamines in red wines which causes many people headaches.

6:35 pm

jaxx7

Cheese is another one that gives me migraines. Would it work on that?

6:35 pm

rururocks

hmm.. that I"ve never heard of. I don't know

6:36 pm

rururocks

It will help with drinking red wine if you don't drink too much.

6:36 pm

BzznBea

How can you NOT drink too much red wine?

6:36 pm

jaxx7

My husband has benadryl for hay fever. I will try, and report the result

6:37 pm

rururocks

try one at first and then two the next time

6:37 pm

rururocks

it might help

6:37 pm

jaxx7

very easily if you know you will have a migraine in the morning.

6:38 pm

rururocks

some people do get sleepy on Benedryl .. so be careful of that.. don't drive any heavy equipment etc :D

6:39 pm

jaxx7

I don't drive, ru. I have eyes that don't work too well so I gave up driving

6:39 pm

rururocks

I have to be careful not to mix red and white wine. I am guaranteed a migraine if I do that

6:39 pm

BzznBea

I'm sorry, jaxx. At least you recognized the problem.

6:40 pm

jaxx7

Correction - the only driving I do is to drive my husband to drink. lol

6:40 pm

BzznBea

=)

6:40 pm

Bugsaw

Anyone have a clue for the second ya 5 word? I have the obvious one

6:41 pm

jaxx7

The very heavy reds with lots of tannins have been a no-no for years.

6:41 pm

rururocks

ya + not boys

6:41 pm

jaxx7

I haven't even got the obvious one, bugs

6:42 pm

rururocks

and not yatransvestites either bugs :D

6:42 pm

Bugsaw

ok but what are they? must go look it up....

6:42 pm

jaxx7

Now I have. Thanks Bugs.

6:42 pm

Bugsaw

I like trannys

6:43 pm

rururocks

the di 8 relates to wine

6:45 pm

rururocks

I'm stuck

6:46 pm

MollyL

*Gets the WD40*

6:46 pm

rururocks

not THAT kind of stuck

6:47 pm

Bugsaw

I had the di 8, looked it up and it relates to popcorn, not wine

6:47 pm

rururocks

buttery chardonnays have di8 as a component to add the butteriness

6:47 pm

jaxx7

Could you give us a clue, please

6:48 pm

rururocks

like Rombauer Chardonnay (putting aside all the sugar)

6:48 pm

rururocks

di + first playing card + dinosaur ending

6:48 pm

MollyL

*Gets out of the way when Ru is told he's wrong about wine*

6:49 pm

Bugsaw

hmm. I still have not any lessons in wine tasting so I would never try to find the flavour of butter in a wine. I should try to find the Rombauer and try it out.

6:50 pm

dofith

Good morning, all. Jaxx, I'm interested in your condition - had the same thing a few years ago - suddenly developed kidney stones which blocked the ureter when passing -had to be blasted away and a stent put in. This happened 4 times. Then had 2 parathyroids and half the thyroid removed. Easy. No more stones. Go for it!

6:52 pm

Bugsaw

good to know dofith

6:52 pm

jaxx7

Thanks for the advice, dofith. I had a friend who had nodules of calcium coming out on her joints and other places. Don't want that either.

6:53 pm

jaxx7

I'll be turned into a pillar of calcium if I am not careful.

6:53 pm

rururocks

Other buttery Chardonnays are: Maldonado, Kistler, DuMol, Paul Hobbs, Peter Michael, Morlet

6:53 pm

dofith

Have you had the scans done yet, to pick up the "hot" glands?

6:54 pm

rururocks

I don't need a scan to fine my hot glands :D

6:55 pm

dofith

Luckily for me, being neither young nor thin, my scar cannot be seen.

6:55 pm

rururocks

actually my ex-wife had two of her parathyroids removed too.. she does fine without them

6:55 pm

jaxx7

No, that is the next step. Anuclear one next week and an ultrasound one a fortnight later. I was interested to hear about the thyroid being involved as well. I had multicysts in my thyroid when I was (much) younger.

6:56 pm

dofith

Ru, I'm sure your hot glands are constantly visible to all!!

6:56 pm

jaxx7

it seems to be a common operation.

6:57 pm

rururocks

just get a great surgeon jaxx.. .that's for sure

6:57 pm

dofith

The radiology showed a node in my thyroid - needle biopsy proved it benign but surgeon said best removed anyway.

6:58 pm

jaxx7

Thanks for the advice all of you. On that optimistic note, I am off to my bed. Night all. Take care and see you all later.

6:58 pm

dofith

Really, ru? Does seem quite common, then.

6:59 pm

dofith

Good luck, jaxx.

6:59 pm

rururocks

usually the parathyroids are the troublemakers

6:59 pm

Bugsaw

sweet dreams jaxx

7:05 pm

Bugsaw

and finally I am done. Good bye all
