12:57 am

sprite

good morning all. Ks killed.

1:03 am

flosey

good morning Sprite, good to see you

1:04 am

flosey

did you receive my email?

1:04 am

sprite

good evening, flosey *hug* And vice versa. How has your day been?
Yes, I received your mail, will get to translating soon. After Sunday, though. I don't have the concentration now.

1:06 am

flosey

fine my dear, take your time, certainly do not give yourself a headache over this

1:06 am

sprite

I'll enjoy doing it once I have sunday behind me :) Love to translate.

1:07 am

flosey

ah, glad you enjoy the chore

1:08 am

sprite

no worries, I will

1:08 am

sprite

did you have a nice day today?

1:11 am

flosey

it's been a good day but headache starting up again - hubby thinks I've had too many, nasty ones lately, so he has booked an appt with Dr. a medical friend thought this should be scanned, we'll see

1:12 am

sprite

never hurts to be careful with things like this. I think it is a wise decision. If for nothing else, it will be a reassurance. When is the appointment?

1:12 am

flosey

Thursday 14th

1:13 am

sprite

ah, that is soon. Good work. Are you very worried?

1:18 am

flosey

I've been concerned because they're like migraine which I use to get wayback, from the time I was a teenager but our medical friend does not agree with this, apparently should be long over migraines - I've just been calling them that because they're very bad and that is the pain I associate with what's going on now

1:20 am

flosey

we'll get to the bottom of this - it was just a stroke of luck that our friend was here one day when I was in a great deal of pain

1:20 am

sprite

ah right. I know my grandmother used to have migraines right up till the end, she was in her 90s by then. Might not be common though. Certainly a very good idea to have it checked out. *extra hug* Sorry you are in pain again.

1:21 am

flosey

sorry, really don't like going into all this in here!! but we will get to the bottom of it

1:21 am

sprite

I am sorry if I asked too many questions about it

1:21 am

Lizlin

Hi all and hugs

1:22 am

flosey

no problem there Sprite, I do appreciate your care

1:22 am

flosey

Hi Liz

1:22 am

Lizlin

Sorry you're not feeling so well, Flosey

1:22 am

flosey

and hugs - needed that!!

1:22 am

sprite

*hugs Liz* Good evening to you both, how have you been?

1:22 am

sprite

all good then, flosey... and if I do ask too much, just feel free to tell me, I'll understand!

1:23 am

Lizlin

Wonderful. Having a great time with our friends from the UK. Just had 5 magical days up at the Great Barrier Reef. Snorkelling there is just an amazing experience. I'm so lucky now - this was my 4th time and we're going again next year.

1:23 am

Lizlin

How are you?

1:23 am

flosey

my dear Sprite, you ask from concern, I do appreciate that

1:24 am

sprite

oh wow, Liz, that sounds amazing!

1:24 am

sprite

thanks, flosey :)

1:24 am

flosey

AH Liz, sounds wonderful, enjoy every minute

1:25 am

sprite

I am pretty okay. Growing calmer day by day, so I guess I am doing all the preparation work well and in time. We'll leave for the open canoe meet this afternoon, so lots of distraction. We'll go home on sunday morning, shower, dress and leave for the party.

1:25 am

Lizlin

It was amazing! Our friends are here for another week, so I won't be around babbling too much - or at least not at sociable hours!

1:26 am

sprite

hehehe, real life friends are more important, Liz. How lovely you can spend time with them. Did they go to the GBR as well?

1:27 am

Lizlin

Yes - we nearly always take our friends up there. It's only a 2 and a half hour flight and it's such a special place. We also went into the Daintree Rainforest for a day and did another trip too.

1:28 am

sprite

it sounds really amazing. Glad you had a terrific time together!

1:28 am

Lizlin

How have you been and are you building your "dragon strength" for the weekend?

1:30 am

sprite

absolutely. Feeling strong and at peace, most of the time. No more sick feeling in the pit of my stomach.

1:30 am

Lizlin

Great and this time next week it'll all be so far in the past!

1:31 am

sprite

so true. Just a few more days to go.

1:35 am

flosey

would like to get to half way but better to be wise and get to bed - hopefully come back tomorrow refreshed!! so, good night all and good luck

1:35 am

Lizlin

Feel better Flosey. Sleep well.

1:36 am

sprite

I hope your head will settle soon, flosey, and you will sl5 well. *hugs*

1:36 am

flosey

thanks Liz and Sprite

1:42 am

Lizlin

Haven't found that yet.

1:42 am

sprite

let me know if you'd like a cl4

1:43 am

Lizlin

I'll keep going for a bit - you're so good remembering to give stats instead of writing the word - I know I forgot, when Flosey left!

1:44 am

sprite

hehehe I often forget too, or I may not even have found the word yet.

1:45 am

Lizlin

When you wrote sl5, I already had that - should've known better!

1:45 am

1:48 am

1:48 am

Lizlin

Thanks for the help :)

1:49 am

Lizlin

But for all it's a stupid word, it took me over half way!

1:49 am

sprite

yayyy Liz!

1:50 am

Lizlin

Early morning tomorrow, so would like to finish this. Whale watching! Hope it's a great day for our friends.

1:51 am

sprite

fingers crossed, Liz. I hope you will have lots of meetings with the huge mammals

1:52 am

sprite

do you want the stats for the oddball french word?

1:52 am

Lizlin

Me too - last week was amazing - the whales just performed beautifully! Hope they do the same tomorrow.

1:52 am

Lizlin

Yes please - I'm ready for it now.

1:53 am

sprite

es8/55. If you know the german word for mirror, it might help you along.

1:53 am

Lizlin

Yes I do - so I'll work around that.

1:54 am

Lizlin

Thanks - I see what you mean!

1:55 am

Lizlin

I'd never have found that.

1:55 am

sprite

fireflies. Very interesting grid. I am off, shower and then packing the last stuff for the open canoe meet. *hugs* and lots of love to you and your beloved, and to Rose and Don too once she logs on. I will be back on monday.

1:55 am

Lizlin

Congrats. Enjoy and see you again soon.

1:55 am

sprite

cybernan

ty une --- now that I've read the rest of the chat it makes sense -- had just come in

9:03 am

cybernan

no idea what a german mirror is though

9:04 am

doseffing

... think of the famous german magazine

9:04 am

cybernan

don't know any german mags either

9:05 am

cybernan

*only ever visited germany once on a cruise

9:06 am

doseffing

... it was sitting on the coffee table in the lounge ... title in large white letters in a red rectangle ... usalally said with "DER" in front of it ... (der is German for "the")

9:08 am

cybernan

no idea dos

9:09 am

doseffing

... sounds like sp * a big American bird that it on all the money

9:09 am

jbp

merry trickster Til Eulensp- - - -

9:10 am

doseffing

... oh my ... aren't we being classical ... wouldn't have thought of Strauss ... ... well done

9:11 am

cybernan

recl 4 should be a word - we do it all the time

9:11 am

cybernan

doesn't help me

9:12 am

welki

got it - thanks dos and jbp

9:14 am

welki

nan - think back to a mail order catalog that began with SP - and play around with the letters

9:14 am

cybernan

ty welkie

9:16 am

cybernan

it was the english clue that helped :)

9:17 am

cybernan

so back to strauss - what does elensp..... mean in english?

9:18 am

welki

it's part of a name of a character

9:18 am

doseffing

... it's a rather famous piece of music by Richard Strauss ... "Til Eulenspxxxxxx" ... eulenspxxxxx means "trickster"

9:19 am

cybernan

the title of the music hasn't been translated to english? - one of his waltzes? Richard or Johann?

9:20 am

doseffing

... Richard ... it's not a waltz ... much later that the waltz king

9:20 am

moolingwa

morning all, down to my last 282

9:20 am

welki

yes, jbp gave the translation - or the trickster's merry pranks

9:23 am

cybernan

ty - just googled it - saw the reference to ger. folklore, but no mention of strauss -- not the classical strauss I take it

9:23 am

welki

very classical - richard strauss

9:24 am

doseffing

... not the waltz king Strauss ... Richard isn't related to Johan ... was the leading German classical composer from about 1890 through 1940

9:24 am

cybernan

oh - thought dos said not richard

9:24 am

welki

http://tinyurl.com/ph2eszq

9:24 am

doseffing

... wrote Also Sprach Zarathrustra ... remember the theme music at the start of Space Oddessy

9:25 am

moolingwa

half way

9:28 am

cybernan

there were 2 Johanns I thought -- the younger one was the waltz king -- also a few operettas

9:29 am

doseffing

... that's correct ... his father wrote the Radetski March ... but the younger Johann died about the time Richard was just getting started ... and they weren't related ... in by family or philosophy or musically

9:30 am

moolingwa

that's why I come to babble, to learn stuff

9:31 am

moolingwa

had no idea there were so many strausses

9:32 am

doseffing

... I belive that Johan ... the waltz king ... had at least two ... maybe three brothers who composed for the Viennese musical scene

9:32 am

cybernan

I'm always learning here. It surprises me to find how many things others heard of as a child that those of us who did not grow up in a multi-cultural society missed.

9:32 am

moolingwa

it's great

9:33 am

rururocks

you forgot about the rejected Strauss sibling the sister

9:33 am

doseffing

... oh I just had a maiden lady aunt who thought we should experience everything

9:34 am

rururocks

Alba Straus

9:34 am

doseffing

... sister were always forgotten ... Mozart and Mendlesohn

9:36 am

doseffing

... but enough of this musical remembrancing ... the holes for planting in the back garden will not get dug if I hang around here all morning ... ... gotta go ... luck to all

9:36 am

cybernan

what are you planting?

9:38 am

doseffing

... got some lilac bushes to replace a bunch that died in the shade of some too tall trees a few years ago

9:39 am

cybernan

happy digging then :)

9:39 am

cybernan

still too hot and dry to plant anything here.

9:39 am

doseffing

... my back thanks you for your encouragement

9:40 am

plants will be dying from lack of sunlight soon -- so much smoke in the air

Watching Peaky Blinders on Netflix at the moment. Anybody who enjoys a rattling good yarn, and delectable eye-catching ( Cillian Murphy, Sam Neill), Peaky Blinders is highly recommended.
