I'm convinced that the Enable Word List makers are from Scotland. It seems there are more Scot words in these grids than any other language.

5:32 am

bichon

But they are Jewish

5:38 am

MollyL

Who are Jewish?

5:44 am

bichon

the makers of Enable

5:46 am

MollyL

Un, the Enable word list was released by Alan Beale. I was just joking.

5:47 am

rubyfoo

Bonjour ma petite Bichon

5:49 am

rubyfoo

And Molly, comment Ã§a va?

5:50 am

good morning all. ruby when is your apt?

5:50 am

rubyfoo

It's still unusually hot (but I love it) and with this gift of a free morning, with the housekeeper to keep me from falling over, I did about an hour's work in the garden

5:50 am

rubyfoo

It's Thurs

5:50 am

periwinkle

I would love to see your garden, ruby

5:51 am

bichon

Make a video and send it to us

5:52 am

5:52 am

rubyfoo

We even saw the fish for a change. They are usually hiding in the mud at the bottom; some are more than a foot long!

5:54 am

rubyfoo

The heron comes to the Ruby's Restaurant every morning but he's so beautiful that I don't begrudge him so fish

5:54 am

5:56 am

rubyfoo

I am very lucky! All of this easily makes up for the tough winters

5:58 am

bichon

Is it as cold as NYC?

5:59 am

rubyfoo

Its diffeeent because it's so far inland and also so much higher

5:59 am

bichon

And you don't have central heating

6:00 am

TheByzantine

My state has had snow in every month but August.

6:00 am

bichon

Do you live in Alaska?

6:01 am

rubyfoo

And drier than NY. It's hard to say, though because even in ,98 when we came here, there was much more snow and a hard frost every year, as much as a foot of ice on the fishpond

6:01 am

TheByzantine

Montana has had snow in every month because of the mountains in the west part.

6:02 am

rubyfoo

Now, no hard frost (a bad thinbg) and hardly any snow except in the mountains, some of which are visible from the deck

6:02 am

rubyfoo

Hello Byz

6:03 am

bichon

those are beautiful mountains

6:03 am

rubyfoo

One year there was a foot of snow on 16 Aoril

3:20 pm

zoozzoom

We have had a few Indian Summers here but very rare.
