2:05 am

2:06 am

Lizlin

Awesome start, Sprite!

TQ

You should hear the squeaking sprite. They hear the fridge opening.

2:07 am

sprite

Liz, got the testing results back yesterday and guess what... blood sugar levels have gone down even further, and that with me no longer taking medication for them! I got permission to stop the cholesterole medication for 3 months, as a test period, to see if they stay down too.

2:08 am

grannyrose

cooee and {{hugs}} to all of you. you are very precious to me. xoxox

2:08 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Hello my dear friend, how are you feeling?

2:08 am

Lizlin

Fantastic news, Sprite :)

2:09 am

Lizlin

Hugs Rose. Expect you're still flying!

2:09 am

sprite

2:09 am

flosey

hi Rose, you sound in great spirits tonight

2:09 am

Lizlin

Hi Flosey. Hope all's well with you.

2:09 am

sprite

our rose is high as a kite, grin

2:11 am

grannyrose

doing so well. had to visit my dentist today. broke a tooth over the we4end. wouldn't you know it? it was a central upper incisor.

2:11 am

sprite

oh ughhhh rose! The horror.

2:11 am

Lizlin

Nasty :(

2:11 am

grannyrose

fortunately she was able to cap it.so my smile is intact again.

2:12 am

sprite

good, that is your best accesory

2:12 am

sprite

well, except for your tutu, that is

2:12 am

grannyrose

hmmm.... loll... nope, not gonna spoil you surprise.

2:13 am

flosey

yes thanks Liz - placed 3rd at bridge tonight, less than a full point behind second - which was hubby and his partner

2:13 am

flosey

ouch Rose, that sounds painful

2:13 am

sprite

wow, nice going, flosey! Well played.

2:13 am

Lizlin

WTG Flosey :)

2:13 am

grannyrose

flosey, my dentist is so gentle.

2:14 am

sprite

<--- seriously petrified by dentists

2:15 am

flosey

ty

2:15 am

grannyrose

i am terrified of that sucker. fortunately the nurse was fully aware that i have a very strong gag reflex.

2:17 am

flosey

I have found an excellent dentist - have to go over to Victoria to him - but worth the trip - he has done some implants for me - very comfortable

2:17 am

sprite

I have the kindest dentist possible, have to go to Heemstede for him, but worth it... but I can't find the courage to go, lol

2:18 am

sprite

phantom: criteria

2:25 am

sprite

did you all leave me? :(

2:26 am

grannyrose

nope.

2:26 am

Lizlin

Nor me

2:26 am

sprite

ah good :) Tell me about your day... apart from the dentist part

2:26 am

sprite

am glad, Liz. It was so quiet all of a sudden, lol

2:27 am

flosey

still here

2:27 am

Lizlin

There are another 100 words in this grid - but they don't want me to find them :(

2:28 am

sprite

how evil of them, Liz

2:28 am

grannyrose

not much. gardener came so the lawn looks good. neighbour visited which was nice.

2:28 am

sprite

sounds like a good day, rose

2:29 am

Lizlin

It is evil ;)

2:31 am

grannyrose

still feeling good. although nerve is a little touchy. another couple of days and all should be great.

2:32 am

TQ

That's it for me for a bit. Time to feed the guineas

2:32 am

sprite

cuddle them from me, TQ

2:33 am

grannyrose

see you TQ

2:33 am

TQ

I will sprite

2:33 am

Lizlin

Bye TQ

2:33 am

TQ

Bye rose

2:33 am

TQ

And liz

2:34 am

TQ

Before I go,a question. Can I change my user name or am I stuck with tq

2:35 am

sprite

in principle you are stuck with the username. DrGod might be able to change it for you but I don't know if you will

2:35 am

sprite

if HE will

2:35 am

TQ

Ok thanks sprite. Bye all

2:35 am

sprite

bye for now, TQ

2:36 am

flosey

bye TQ, let us know if you get your name changed

2:37 am

flosey

or keep the same icon picture - we should recognize it

2:37 am

sprite

hehehe or TQ will come back as Too Quute. Then we will know too.

2:38 am

grannyrose

dr god changed mine for me.

2:39 am

Lizlin

What were you before?

2:39 am

grannyrose

rmcc

2:39 am

sprite

yeah but I believe that zooz tried to have it changed and drGod refused

2:40 am

Lizlin

Can see why you'd change - unless you were a UK cricket fan.

2:40 am

grannyrose

maybe my reason was a good one. i had become a granny for the first time.

2:41 am

sprite

if I remember correctly, for zooz it was a typo matter... he had intended to be zoomzoom

2:41 am

grannyrose

ahhhh. makes sense

2:41 am

Lizlin

Yes, I think that's right.

2:46 am

mattygroves

Morning all. Does anyone have stats for the I in the fourth row, fourth column?

2:47 am

sprite

and I am not sure about BabbleRabble... if he had his name changed or if he made new accounts. He has been BabbleRabble, o-o and now ehmmmm Byzantium?

2:47 am

Kateq

ir 4/5

2:47 am

grannyrose

ir4/5

2:47 am

sprite

ir4/5

2:47 am

sprite

hiya matty and Kate!

2:47 am

mattygroves

Thank you!

2:47 am

mattygroves

This never gets confusing when we're both on (as my 'real' name is Kate)

2:48 am

sprite

wow, that is different. Why mattygroves then? Just curious, if you don't wanna say, just tell me!

2:49 am

mattygroves

It's a song. About adultery and murder. It's a folk song by one of my favourite bands (actually, it's a folk song, so lots of people sing it) but the band in question is Fairport Convention. I've been using it as a user name since forever.

2:49 am

sprite

oh cool *off to youtube*

2:50 am

mattygroves

My email addresses all start mattygroves10 - my daughter was 10 when I had to stick a number on it. She's now 25.

2:50 am

sprite

it is playing now!

2:50 am

mattygroves

Great song!

2:50 am

sprite

sounds great

2:51 am

sprite

come home with me, little matty groves...

2:51 am

mattygroves

Come home with me tonight, come home with me little Matty Groves and sleep with me til light

2:51 am

sprite

:D

2:52 am

sprite

makes me happy... I missed singing along in babble since Kiwi stopped being chatty

2:52 am

sprite

lol... well I like your comfy bed and well I like your sheets...

2:53 am

mattygroves

But better I like your lady gay who lies in my arms asleep

2:53 am

sprite

*giggles* Love the text

2:53 am

flosey

falling asleep here, must get to bed, 119 to go, good night all

2:54 am

sprite

sleep well, flosey *hugs*

2:54 am

flosey

ty Sprite and you, have a great day

2:55 am

grannyrose

sweet dreams dear flosey

2:55 am

sprite

thank you, I will

2:56 am

mattygroves

There's also another version called Little Musgrave by Martin Simpson

2:57 am

mattygroves

Same story, different tune and a variation on the words

2:57 am

sprite

nice, matty!

2:57 am

mattygroves

I'm quite the folk fan

3:00 am

sprite

I am rather eclectic in music taste. I love a little bit of this, a little bit of that... hardly ever a whole band or singer or genre

3:01 am

mattygroves

I tend to go through phases of listening to everything by the band du jour (for me, that is). Crosby Stills & Nash (and Young), Jethro Tull, the Who, Steeleye Span, ELP - but the vast majority of music is older than I am (or at the very least, was popular when I was too small to appreciate it)

3:01 am

grannyrose

ditto. i like what i think is the best or appeals to my taste.

3:02 am

sprite

I love rock 'n' roll a lot (but not everything). Otherwise, I am all over the place.

3:02 am

mattygroves

I also like Baroque classical

3:03 am

sprite

I love almost all classical music. Am not a real opera fan, but most instrumental music is very much to my gaste

3:03 am

sprite

taste* (some days I can even spell)

3:04 am

mattygroves

I'm not a huge opera fan either. I used to play cello. Very badly.

3:04 am

sprite

oh, wonderful instrument! But hard to play.

3:04 am

mattygroves

Especially as I have tiny hands. And a lazy body ;)

3:05 am

mixi6

agrees with sprite.

3:05 am

sprite

I used to play the piano and the flute, and a tiny bit of guitar. Haven't played an instrument for ages though. I do sing at the moment.

3:05 am

mattygroves

I sing terribly. And I'm a tenor (or lower) - too many years of smoking

3:05 am

sprite

*giggles @ lazy body* Yeah, must be hard word for tiny hands to manage the cello

3:06 am

sprite

hiya mixi!

3:06 am

mattygroves

Hi mix

3:08 am

sprite

smoking is really hard on a voice. But not an easy habit to kick.

3:08 am

mattygroves

No :(

3:08 am

mattygroves

Half way. NBT but I still don't have a 9

3:08 am

Kamanjah

Hi all! I have to report that the new car DIDN'T talk to hubby, dang it! But he named it 'Star Ship....' final name TBD

3:09 am

sprite

roflol Kam! The silly car, already partial to you... it is kinda sweet though. Star Ship would work for me. "Shall we take the star ship or walk?"

3:10 am

Kamanjah

Lol, Sprite!

3:10 am

Kamanjah

I was disappointed, but he ignores the radio, and it was an attempt to change the volume that made it talk. He didn't even use the cruise control yet...

3:11 am

sprite

you are already more knowledgeable about the car than he is!

3:12 am

sprite

oh man... forgotten plurals galore

3:13 am

mattygroves

I hate it when that happens. I do it all the time. Can I have stats for a 9 (a nine I've heard of, if at all possible)

3:13 am

Kamanjah

Well, it was MY birthday present...then his the next week...lucky me, born an exact week + 2 yrs before he was, but I got to drive it home from the lot

3:13 am

sprite

he9/60 is a normal word

3:13 am

sprite

hehehe and rightly so, Kam!

3:14 am

grannyrose

okay, i can he4 the meat being sliced, and the vegs are ne4ly ready. xoxox i hope you all have great days/nights. {{hugs}} to all.

3:14 am

mattygroves

I shall have a look! Night Rose - have a great one

3:14 am

sprite

night night, rose *hugs* Sleep well and dream even better.

3:15 am

mattygroves

Sprite, is it a compound?

3:15 am

Kamanjah

Rose, take care, didn't get a chance to hear how you're doing!

3:15 am

sprite

no, it isn't, matty

3:15 am

sprite

she is doing great, Kam. Feeling great after the infusions, and only the nerve giving her some pain atm. Should be less in a few days though.

3:16 am

Kamanjah

I've been trying an odd he8 that isn't here, haven't stumbled on the 9 yet

3:16 am

zoozzoom

Think of your pulse and what makes it..work with that, Matty.

3:16 am

sprite

I can easily clue it, but don't want to spoil your fun

3:16 am

Kamanjah

Yay, glad to hear the infusions worked well. Nerve pain is awful.

3:16 am

sprite

*hugs zooz* Hello dear man! How are you today, and how are your parents holding up?

3:16 am

Kamanjah

Nah, not yet, just popped in

3:16 am

zoozzoom

Too late I already did :-)

3:17 am

sprite

rose had a desensitivation treatment for that nerve. It should be better in a few days, she said

3:17 am

zoozzoom

All well here, Sprite thank you. although it is rather chilly here. Parents are okay thank you for asking.

3:18 am

zoozzoom

How are you keeping?

3:18 am

Kamanjah

I hope that works for her. A friend of hubby's had something like that done and his nerve shut up, no more pain he says

3:18 am

Kamanjah

ok, zooz, I'm not looking down the chat past the 'too late' yet.... ;)

3:19 am

sprite

sounds good, zooz. Yeah, cold here too, it is freezing atm. Makes for more sun, though, I prefer it to the grey and wet. I am good. Blood sugar levels all down again, and that without meds. So happy with that.

3:19 am

zoozzoom

Sorry about that, Kamanjah.

3:20 am

zoozzoom

Nice one, Sprite, shows that you have really done well looking after your health plan after the diagnosis of being a diabetic.

3:21 am

zoozzoom

So your are almost back to how you were before that?

3:21 am

sprite

it is easy to misread someone asking for stats, thinking they want a clue, zooz. Happens often :)

3:21 am

zoozzoom

Your'e*

3:21 am

Kamanjah

No prob, it already fell off my screen anyway Zooz.
It has been cold, gray and raining on and off here, and I'm tired of wet cats. The dog is pretty good, he's a house dog...goes out to potty, and right back in when it's raining

3:21 am

sprite

zooz, my BSL are beautiful. They would be great, even for someone who never had diabetes at all.

3:22 am

mattygroves

Got it, finally - and to be fair, the clue wasn't a lead a horse to water, shove its head into the through and force feed it liquids - a very gentle clue :)

3:22 am

sprite

you trained him well, Kam

3:22 am

sprite

very true, matty, and yay!

3:22 am

Kamanjah

Dog door

3:23 am

Kamanjah

The cats hunt, so always come drippng in when it rains. But we need rain so much here! California

3:24 am

sprite

we need rain like a fish needs beer here.

3:24 am

sprite

fireflies. Loved this grid. Not even a lot of odd words for a grid this size.

3:25 am

sprite

does anyone need clues or stats before I go?

3:25 am

mattygroves

Congrats! I still have 161 left and have slowed down a bit. I shall shower soon, I expect

3:25 am

zoozzoom

They had a silly advert here in the UK a while back. where they had a pigmy horse being ignored in a field with normal sized horses. So the owner decides to buy from the amazon app a massive pygmy horse door for her door. I mean it looked so stupid. Any adult person could of got through that easily. They could of thought of a better idea to advert their app lol

3:25 am

sprite

showering might make your babbling stand still though, matty

3:25 am

zoozzoom

Congrats, Sprite!

3:26 am

sprite

indeed, zooz, lol. Anti-adverts, we call those here

3:26 am

zoozzoom

Not for me, Sprite. Just starte here.

3:26 am

zoozzoom

D*

3:27 am

mattygroves

Hah - I remember that ad, Zooz

3:27 am

Kamanjah

Congrats, Sprite! I just promised to report in...have a great day/night - I can't keep time zones straight!

3:28 am

sprite

in that case, off I go! *hugs* to you all. Have a grand day and/or a peaceful night.

3:28 am

zoozzoom

I am always moaning about how unrealistic adverts are with the parents well my dad and I do..My mother keeps saying for goodness sake you too give it a rest I can't here what they are saying LOL

3:28 am

zoozzoom

Have a great day, Sprite!

3:28 am

sprite

always lovely to see you, Kam. For me it is morning, 10.30 am.

3:28 am

mattygroves

Have a great one :)

3:28 am

zoozzoom

Sweet sleeps, Kamanjah!

3:28 am

Kamanjah

1:30AM here, time for bed!!

3:29 am

Kamanjah

Type to you soon!

3:29 am

mattygroves

Night!

3:29 am

zoozzoom

See how quickly I can send people to sleep, Matty LOL

3:30 am

mattygroves

Ha! Yeah, you and me both. Anything exciting for your today in the works?

3:32 am

zoozzoom

Not really although do not mind it. I will be going to my parents and help them with their daily chores. sit and chat to them and sometimes when they fall asleep I will sneek in a moment or two to see if I can find any more words on babble with their tablet.

3:32 am

zoozzoom

How about you?

3:33 am

mattygroves

Nah. Might pop into Staines. Have a fight on my hands with Barclays (they cocked up big time - telling me my account had been compromised when in fact it was my ex-husband's. They then sent me HIS debit card)

3:33 am

mattygroves

It's Tuesday, so my OH plays his music in a pub and a bunch of us go.

3:34 am

zoozzoom

Well I hope it was not over the phone they told you. Do not want to worry you, Matty, but there have been a lot of scams with people pretending to be from their bank and to pass over their details.

3:37 am

zoozzoom

You still there, Matty? Sorry if I have made you worried.

3:39 am

Lizlin

You still here Sprite?

3:40 am

Lizlin

Hi Zooz and Matty

3:40 am

zoozzoom

Hello Liz :-)

3:40 am

Lizlin

How are you?

3:40 am

zoozzoom

How are you this fine evening?

3:41 am

Lizlin

And your parents?

3:41 am

zoozzoom

I am fine thanks. Parents are okay too thank you for asking :-)

3:41 am

Lizlin

All's good thanks. Just had a long chat with a friend in

3:41 am

Lizlin

ondon which was lovely.

3:41 am

zoozzoom

Scotland

3:41 am

zoozzoom

Oh damn I was way out lol

3:41 am

Lizlin

London!

3:42 am

Lizlin

Must've hit enter on the iPad, rather than the L!

3:42 am

zoozzoom

Did you use skype?

3:43 am

Lizlin

No, FaceTime - we both gave iPhones.

3:43 am

Lizlin

Have

3:43 am

zoozzoom

Oh in that case I will give you a bit more time to answer then. i hate typing on those things lol

3:43 am

Lizlin

FaceTime tends to be more stable than Skype

3:43 am

zoozzoom

Nice. My mother uses that too and she loves it!

3:44 am

zoozzoom

I hope Matty is okay I think I might of worried her.

3:44 am

Lizlin

I use it quite often - Skype too.

3:44 am

Lizlin

How did you worry her?

3:46 am

zoozzoom

She will not mind me saying as she wrote it in the chat anyway. She said that her bank had told her her account has been compromised. And I told her that I hope it was not done over the phone as there are a lot of scams at the moment with people pretendind to be from your bank and getting your details.

3:46 am

zoozzoom

They even then have the cheek to actually send someone to your home to collect your card.

3:47 am

Lizlin

That was a realistic comment.

3:47 am

Lizlin

So many scams around.

3:47 am

Lizlin

I've learned not to trust, which is really very sad.

3:47 am

zoozzoom

There are adverts at the moment from banks saying they would never ask for your bank details over the phone.

3:48 am

zoozzoom

After I told her that she did not reply.

3:48 am

zoozzoom

Yes I agree it is sad but the way it is now, Liz :-(

mattygroves

Sorry - my ex phoned to tell me about his complaint

4:45 am

mattygroves

And then I made my complaint

4:46 am

mattygroves

I wasn't worried - it's a long story but no, they didn't collect any personal details, and yes, the call really was from Barclays (I checked the number before speaking to them) - Barclays Fraud called and said the account had been compromised - thing is, it wasn't my account that had been, but rather my ex-husband's. Mine's just fine

5:04 am

sukee

Good morning.

5:07 am

Nice grid for my birthday.

5:08 am

mattygroves

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :) Hippo birdy two ewes....

5:09 am

sukee

TY... I can't believe I am 60...

5:09 am

mattygroves

Oh wow - I love your profile pic :) Another Whovian :) And age is just a number (see if I say that in May when I turn 50)

5:10 am

sukee

My sister is going to be 64 next month. She asked how we got this old :)

5:10 am

mattygroves

By not dying, mostly ;)

5:11 am

sukee

I am looking more forward to Doctor Who than Christmas itself :)

5:12 am

mattygroves

Athough I'm not convinced by the trailer - it looks to me they're really going for the slapstick comedy

5:12 am

mattygroves

Many of the Christmas specials have been a bit weak (one of my least favourite eps of all time was the one with the giant Cyberman)

5:12 am

sukee

Yeah, less super-heroes.

5:12 am

mattygroves

Sherlock on New Year's Day, though - now that I am enthused about

5:13 am

sukee

True, I can't really think of a Christmas episode I have loved. I did like the one when David Tennant arrived

5:13 am

mattygroves

The Christmas Invasion. Though again, they really played up the slapstick

5:13 am

sukee

Is there talk of an actual Doctor Who season next year?

5:14 am

mattygroves

The end was good though

5:14 am

mattygroves

I think so, yes - but perhaps a short one?

5:14 am

sukee

It is complicated for me, I have to use a program to watch it on the BBC because I don't have the paid network here that airs it :)

5:15 am

mattygroves

Ah - living in the UK...I do. Mind you, there are things I see late living over here (Agents of Shield springs to mind)

5:15 am

mattygroves

Yes, I"m all the geek

5:16 am

sukee

And, I have invested in a Chromecast that will allow me to watch the show on my TV rather than my laptop.

5:16 am

sukee

Not all for Doctor Who, but partly :)

5:16 am

mattygroves

I've a smart TV, Netflix and Amazon Prime (along with Now TV that allows me to see some Sky TV programmes such as Game of Thrones) but no cable or the like

5:17 am

mattygroves

It's WAY cheaper to do it this way

5:17 am

sukee

Yes, when I eventually move I think I will get rid of cable.

5:18 am

sukee

So much stuff on Netflix now

5:21 am

Oh yeah!

the di 9 starts with the d in the third column. and the inserts is not part of the definition.

11:00 am

no problems here Eva

11:00 am

the di9 starts with the first 3 letters of a private journal

Thanks to US tax regulation, Peri, it's difficult since FATCA getting bank accounts and investment accounts if you're a US Person as the US government have heavy penalties for both taxpayers and banks that don't report American people.

11:08 am

mattygroves

The US makes you file a tax return even if you don't owe the US government any tax and you pretty much need an accountant for that (even if you owe nothing).

11:08 am

mattygroves

Also, Trump.

11:08 am

If it makes you feel any better, it is over $2000 dollars to just get a green card in the US.

11:10 am

mattygroves

I have no idea what it costs to get Indefinite Leave to Remain here - I've had mine since 1988. I think it cost me Â£114 (or it may have been $) to get, from the American Embassy in NY, permission to enter the country with intent to marry (after I was already married, but there you go) and I don't remember what more it cost me at the time.

11:10 am

mattygroves

It's costing me Â£50 to take the test tomorrow.

11:11 am

mattygroves

Plus Â£9.99 to buy the Life in the UK book

My brother berated me for the Brexit vote, he kept saying we this and we that. I said what do you mean WE you became an American citizen in 1958!!! Besides I voted to sty in!!
