*hugs rose* Hello my dearest friend. Good evening to you and Don. How have you been, the last few days?

1:41 am

grannyrose

as you know flat out, but have taken it fairly quietly today.

1:42 am

sprite

and do you feel that you get better while resting? Or does it feel like a bottomless pit?

1:42 am

grannyrose

and apart from carving hunks out of myself, the rest is okay... lolll

1:43 am

sprite

oh dear... what've you been up to now? Playing with knives again?

1:44 am

grannyrose

no, am feeling better for resting. and i have started doing extra walks every other day, around the block, just strolling but not stopping or needing to stop.

1:44 am

sprite

awesome, rose. All good then. You are going strong, love. Am so glad!

1:45 am

grannyrose

funny you should mention knives. the set in the church kitchen are extremely sharp and i wasn't watching while i wiped a blade clean between cutting the sausage rolls to size.

1:45 am

flosey

Hi there Rose, and hugs dear friend - trust they are only taking what you no longer have use for! and good for you with the walking - keep it easy

1:46 am

NonoNanette

r

1:46 am

sprite

roflollll @ flosey. Good one! That'll teach her to play with knives. Wiping blades clean, rose, my dear... only with the sharp edge away from you... and with care...

1:46 am

sprite

hi there Nanette

1:47 am

grannyrose

and the other night i brushed past don's set of tall drawers, and removed a few layers from my forearm. of course, being on aspirin, the areas wouldn't stop bleeding.

1:48 am

sprite

ouch, no indeed. And wow, Don must be really hard, if brushing past his pair of drawers hurts that much!

1:48 am

flosey

lol Sprite - must be the sharp crease Rose presses into them!!

1:49 am

sprite

indeed. That's what you get for ironing. I never do.

1:49 am

grannyrose

don has ordered rubber edges for all the sharp corners around the house. there was blood every where because i didn't notice straight away did i ?? oh no !! just bled all over the place.

1:49 am

flosey

presses, as irons

1:49 am

grannyrose

haha you two.

1:50 am

sprite

oh rose... LOLLLLL... okay... I will agree... a rubber might help for preventing pregnancy. But for preventing severe bleeding?

1:50 am

flosey

ah Rose, do take better care of yourself

1:51 am

sprite

^^ what flosey says

1:51 am

grannyrose

oh dear heaven.... sprite !!

1:53 am

grannyrose

1:53 am

sprite

1:54 am

grannyrose

grannyrose

1:55 am

sprite

hehehe give flosey her due, rose. She is naughty in her own way!

1:56 am

flosey

sounds like a lovely day Sprite, enjoy - would love to join you for supper

1:56 am

sprite

would love to have you, flosey

1:57 am

sprite

I promised to translate a recipe for you, didn't I? Was it the curry?

1:57 am

flosey

wouldn't it be fun

1:57 am

sprite

it would. Who knows, some day!

1:58 am

flosey

1:58 am

sprite

okay, will do!

1:59 am

flosey

tyty

2:01 am

sprite

2:02 am

flosey

2:02 am

sprite

I'll translate both. Not today though :) But soon.

2:02 am

2:05 am

sprite

ohhhh sangria!

2:06 am

sprite

when you and Don return, rose, I'll make another batch of sangria spiker.

2:06 am

Hello, Ruby, Just started here so only have 54 words.

4:37 am

rubyfoo

Hello Zzozz. I think summer is over, alas!

4:38 am

zoozzoom

Yes I think so too. At least it is still mild at the moment!

4:38 am

rubyfoo

It may have been record-breaking heat, but l didn't mind

4:38 am

zoozzoom

Hoping for an Indian Summer here!

4:39 am

rubyfoo

I'm close to making a fire but, for the moment, 2 sweaters and a blanket do the trick

4:40 am

zoozzoom

Bless you, Ruby, You keep yourself warm. If you need a fire going get one started. If it gets too warm you can always put it out.

4:42 am

rubyfoo

No, l'm too lazy and no help today to carry in wood

4:42 am

rubyfoo

This isn't too bad

4:42 am

rubyfoo

There's enough for a short fire, but, hopefully, the afternoon will be warmer.....

4:43 am

zoozzoom

That should be good then.

4:45 am

rubyfoo

And besides the "meals on wheels yucky lunch", l've found a food truck that will deliver kebabs later. How great is that!?!

4:46 am

rubyfoo

nohs

4:46 am

zoozzoom

Wow! You are on a winner there, Ruby!

4:46 am

rubyfoo

sorry

4:47 am

zoozzoom

Should only be sorry if it is a real word, Ruby :-)

4:47 am

rubyfoo

I had the kebabs last weekend and although they were too spicy, ther addition of some yoghurt helped

4:48 am

MollyL

Meat on a stick, delivered to your door. It doesn't get much better than that. : D

4:48 am

zoozzoom

LOL

4:51 am

rubyfoo

That's what l thought, but these are Turkish and they're full of salad and sauce, all enfolded in a huge pita. Sloppy, but tasty

4:51 am

rubyfoo

I was expected dry meat on a stick, like in New York....

4:52 am

rubyfoo

expecting*

4:52 am

zoozzoom

They do take-away meals delivery around here too and some people have meals delivered at 1am!

4:53 am

rubyfoo

This is rare for here, and only avail able, briefly, on the weekend.

4:54 am

zoozzoom

I remember when I was a little bot we used to get a fish & chips van go around our area and you could go out to the van and buy fish & chips right outside your home. It was great!

4:54 am

rubyfoo

lt's almost time for red boxes, so l'll see you later

4:54 am

zoozzoom

Boy*

4:55 am

zoozzoom

Take care, Ruby. Nice to see you.

4:55 am

rubyfoo

I'd love that or eeven pizza, but hÃ©la, not possible

4:55 am

rubyfoo

hÃ©las*

4:56 am

zoozzoom

4:56 am

zoozzoom

4:57 am

zoozzoom

Ah Alas just googled it :-)

4:58 am

zoozzoom

Of which 'google' is in the grid today :-)

5:25 am

zoozzoom

5:29 am

rubyfoo

Back

5:29 am

rubyfoo

Bizarro lunch arrived and was shared with "monkey-boy" who walked the pups and fed the fish

5:56 am

MollyL

I think someone could make a lot of money with the rolling fish & chips/grill type van. So many people don't cook anymore.

6:06 am

rubyfoo

I think you're right, but noty here. The village is too sparsely populated and the people are too cheap!

6:08 am

rubyfoo

The food truck comes on weekends in the post office parking lot; it's on the only through road and caters to tourists

6:10 am

rubyfoo

The village is so small that when they tried to have an outdoor market on weekends, it couldn't survive

musical terms are Italian.

12:03 pm

MollyL

No, just some of them

12:12 pm

wvteach

This is a list of musical terms that are likely to be encountered in printed scores, music reviews, and program notes. Most of the terms are Italian, in accordance with the Italian origins of many European musical conventions. Sometimes, the special musical meanings of these phrases differ from the original or current Italian meanings. Most of the other terms are taken from French and German, indicated by "Fr." and "Ger.", respectively.

12:19 pm

MollyL

And there are American and Spanish musical terms as well.

12:24 pm

All this has me vibrattoing with excitement

Just a suggestion, when you say you got the ag5 ending in e, you have clued a word with three letters. Mostly, people just try to clue words with the first two letters.

Hiyas, kiddos!

1:01 pm

hurshy

i take it you aren't referring to crazy people then. what is a loonie?

1:01 pm

doseffing

... oh stop being so Canadian eh! ...there are enough foreing units of currency allowed in this game already without adding two more

1:02 pm

doseffing

... a loonie is a 1$ Canadian coin

1:02 pm

hurshy

it has a pic of a lo4 on it?

1:02 pm

doseffing

and that was foreign

1:02 pm

cybernan

and we also have a toonie

1:02 pm

doseffing

.. our national bird

1:02 pm

hurshy

you guys are so cool

1:03 pm

wvteach

what is a toonie - didn't know that one

1:03 pm

doseffing

... it's got a polar bear on it ... the mint wanted us to call it a bearie ... but already having a loonie who would resist calling a 2$ coin a toonie\

1:03 pm

cybernan

$2 coin

1:03 pm

hurshy

see we take money way too seriously in the states

1:04 pm

Judi

I'll take your money. Seriously.

1:04 pm

doseffing

... so Canada is the only country in the world which can honestly say its currency is loonie toons ... because we've got both of them

1:05 pm

doseffing

... there is talk of a 5$ coin ... the question is ... whatever will we call that one?

1:05 pm

hurshy

calling it a toonie reminds me of that old joke about Yugo inventing a station wagon and calling it a Wego

1:05 pm

hurshy

foonie!

1:05 pm

doseffing

... that's just what I was thinking

1:06 pm

doseffing

... that would mean we could have foonie money

1:06 pm

hurshy

quintoonie!

1:06 pm

doseffing

... too long

1:06 pm

doseffing

... would be shortened to a quint ...

1:13 pm

hurshy

oh or sounds yeah, funny how our minds go different directions

1:14 pm

doseffing

... must admit my too often goes in too many different directions ... I'm just not as good at as as some

1:14 pm
