12:00 am

Nef

Flip!

12:03 am

rbud

hi, Nef and all!

12:03 am

Nef

hi bud!

12:04 am

Nef

rbud

12:04 am

Nef

(I don't know which is worse; my typing or autocorrect)

12:08 am

rbud

... maybe we're the only ones here... nahhh... ;)

12:09 am

Nef

Nope. It says that there are 74 lurkers out there

12:09 am

pugmama763

I am just lurking-- very tired

12:09 am

rururocks

I'm focused on the grid but here

12:10 am

rbud

yes, I picture them typing madly! :D

12:10 am

rbud

yay, four corners done, heehee

12:11 am

Nef

LOL! I knew ru was here (sorry, ru, I shouldn't have called you a lurker)

12:11 am

rbud

hey, that counts in Bingo, doesn't it?

12:13 am

Nef

I've got 3 corners AND the center tile. ;-)

12:13 am

rbud

ooohhhh!!! :D

12:14 am

rbud

maybe we could add some excitement to the old "nbt, nbs" thing by going for a big X or the like, haha...

12:14 am

rbud

nahhhh....

12:14 am

rururocks

i'm down to 20.. but missing some tiles

12:16 am

Nef

WTG, ru!

12:18 am

licketySplitAUS

Clues are up

12:19 am

Nef

bud; I will often go through the grid and black out letters on purpose just to make a design. Maybe one night I decide that I'm going to black out all of the edge letters first; then the next group of letters; or maybe do all of the rows on the left or right, etc.

12:19 am

Nef

Thanks, lickety

12:19 am

hurshy

aw, i love you nef

12:20 am

rbud

thanks, Lickety

12:20 am

Nef

hi hurshy. You love me because I'm weird? ;-)

12:20 am

rbud

glad I'm not the only one who does weird things in the grid. :)

12:20 am

hurshy

because you're the same kind of weird as me :)

12:21 am

Nef

So; does that make us the 3 weirdos?

12:22 am

hurshy

shadrach, mo, and aramis?

12:23 am

Nef

Umm, I'm not sure if I like those names; how about hurshy, bud & New?

12:23 am

rbud

methinks we all may be weird...

12:24 am

rbud

â€œHow do you know Iâ€™m mad?â€ said Alice.
â€œYou must be,â€ said the Cat, â€œor you wouldnâ€™t have come here.â€

12:24 am

hurshy

i just chose members of three different trios cause i thought, what could be weirder than that?

12:25 am

Nef

And I just read my last entry & am scratching my head over *that* bad typing.......

12:25 am

hurshy

a faithful Israelite who survived a fiery furnace, a stooge, and a musketeer would make a highly weird combo :) :)

12:25 am

hurshy

that's ok, i knew you meant Nef

12:25 am

rbud

I see the symmetry, hursh, and the random appropriateness

12:25 am

Nef

Very true, harsh.

12:26 am

rbud

hahahah!

12:26 am

Nef

hurshy! DANG!

12:26 am

hurshy

"random appropriateness" - that's a good phrase!

12:27 am

rururocks

to7

12:28 am

rururocks

finished

12:28 am

hurshy

thanks for the to7!

12:28 am

Nef

YAY, ruru!!! WTG!!!

12:29 am

Nef

(& thanks for the 7!)

12:30 am

rbud

ia 6 for the lone i, and congrats, ru!

12:31 am

hurshy

i had the lone i, it's the lone top E and lone bottom A that i can't see

12:31 am

Nef

but my typings getting worse & I have another long day ahead of me tomorrow; so I think Need sleep now

12:31 am

rbud

yeah, don't have those two yet, either.

12:32 am

hurshy

at least the y's are easy

12:33 am

broll

12:33 am

rbud

12:40 am

hurshy

12:40 am

hurshy

12:41 am

rbud

haven't seen mention of it yet

12:44 am

hurshy

12:46 am

rbud

12:47 am

harpjane

hello

12:48 am

rururocks

ae7 is the other seven

1:03 am

harpjane

found a raccoon like creature

1:09 am

harpjane

and a buffalo

1:25 am

flosey

drif t

1:26 am

flosey

oops, sorry

1:29 am

sprite

good morning all

1:30 am

flosey

good morning Sprite

1:31 am

sprite

good evening, flosey *hug* How are you today? No more new headaches?

1:32 am

flosey

not today thanks Sprite, and fine, played bridge at the club tonight

1:33 am

flosey

and how are you Sprite?

1:33 am

sprite

ah, wonderful. Good robbers? (if that is the right word)

1:34 am

flosey

robbers to me are people who take things that don't belong to them

1:34 am

sprite

I am fine, thanks! Feeling the aftermath of all the stress leading up to the party, but that is okay. I can take it easy and be kind to myself, and tomorrow should be a lot better.

1:34 am

flosey

good for you, hope you were able to enjoy the party yourself

1:35 am

sprite

*giggles* To me too. In dutch, a round of bridge is called a robber. The english robber we call a 'rover'.

1:35 am

flosey

slight correction Sprite, it would be called a 'rubber'

1:36 am

sprite

I must admit I am not much of a party person. I enjoyed seeing my sister so very happy, and my niece and nephew in finery true to themselves, and meeting a cousin I had not seen in 20 years. Other than that, we were glad when we could leave ;)

1:37 am

flosey

ah but so nice to see a relative you haven't seen in 20 years - WOW

1:38 am

sprite

ah! That is pretty close. To me, 'rubber' is the plasticky stuff. And a condom. The difference a letter makes :D

1:38 am

flosey

both of my parents were from families of 8 kids - so we do have many relatives and most of whom I seldom see

1:38 am

sprite

yes, it was great to see him, and meet his wife and children.

1:40 am

sprite

oh wow, flosey, those are big families. If you'd ever organise a full family get-together, you'd have to hire a whole party center!

1:40 am

sprite

k killed. Had not even noticed there was one in that corner. Sneaky bastard.

1:40 am

flosey

for sure!! and I don't think I could handle it - would have to hire someone else to do all the work

1:41 am

sprite

indeed. Way too much work for a company that huge.

1:46 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs :)

1:46 am

flosey

but wouldn't it be fun to meet them all!!

1:47 am

sprite

*hugs Liz* Hello dear Liz, how are you and your beloved today?

1:47 am

sprite

I bet it would, flosey. I'd opt for a whole weekend though, so you could sit through a couple of meals and teas and such with different people, taking your time to connect.

1:47 am

Lizlin

We're fine thanks. Hope all's good with you. Good that the party's over and you're now able to recover and get fully back on track with your life.

1:48 am

rubyfoo

Hello

1:48 am

Lizlin

Very happy Flosey, that you're headache free today :)

1:48 am

Lizlin

Hi Ruby - hope all's good with you.

1:48 am

rubyfoo

I have an old friend whose mother (now 92) is one of 12.

1:48 am

sprite

all in all, it was a healing experience, Liz. To know he really doesn't have power over me anymore. Took a lot of hard work and wow, it is great to feel it gave the results I hoped for.

1:49 am

Lizlin

Wow! I come from a small family and that suits me fine.

1:49 am

Lizlin

That's great, Sprite and the other positives you mentioned are very good to read.

1:49 am

rubyfoo

Sye has a lot of money and arranghged for a re_nion every year with all the auntaz, uncles, children, grtrandchildren, etc; in places like Hawaii and rents whole hÃ´tels or ships or several houses for everyone.

1:50 am

sprite

thanks for having my back all the way. It is still amazing to me how powerful that is, friends who support you and think of you.

1:50 am

rubyfoo

There are many sets of twins and even two sets of triplets

1:50 am

Lizlin

Again Wow! I'd love to meet up with my Canadian cousins again - it's a long time since I saw them.

1:50 am

Lizlin

That's what friends are for, Sprite.

1:51 am

sprite

is that the direction your next long journey will go, Liz? To Canada?

1:51 am

rubyfoo

My friend, my age, alrrady has 7 grandchildren!

1:51 am

Lizlin

Must be tired. I have one 7 and no 6

1:51 am

Lizlin

6s and am over half way

1:51 am

Lizlin

No Sprite - no idea when we'll get over there again - perhaps when one of the kids gets married. France and Italy next.

1:52 am

rubyfoo

I can't imagine such a big family!

1:52 am

sprite

true to form, 3x6 here but zero 7s. :D
Yeah, true friends do that, Liz. And I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate you all.

1:53 am

sprite

two beautiful countries, Liz. You'll have a wonderful time, no doubt. Any stop-over in Amsterdam? :)

1:53 am

rubyfoo

Growing up, l had many cousins and aunts and uncles, but now only 5 cousinbs left and we're all over the place

1:53 am

Lizlin

I can give you stats for the 7 I have if you'd like. And thanks for spurring me to find the k

1:53 am

Lizlin

Not this time - we're doing a boat trip from Chalon sur Saone to the South of France and then by bus to Rome via lots of lovely places.

1:54 am

sprite

thanks for the offer, I'll happily stumble along a little longer though.

1:54 am

Lizlin

No problem

1:54 am

sprite

oh wow, sounds like a wonderful holiday, Liz.

1:54 am

sprite

if you'd like stats for the 6s I have, I'll gladly share

1:54 am

Lizlin

I'm sure it will be and no doubt we'll come back with another 20000 or so photos to sort through!

1:55 am

Lizlin

I'm also fine for the moment, thanks.

1:55 am

sprite

no doubt indeed. It will take ages to sort them, but such fun

1:55 am

sprite

all good :)

1:55 am

Lizlin

We enjoy the sorting and then we'll make another photo book as a record for us.

1:56 am

flosey

quite tired tonight, think I'll call it a day and come back to this tomorrow, good night all

1:56 am

sprite

I'm still waiting for Don to send me pictures of their stay here. Unpleasant things like flu get in the way.

1:56 am

Lizlin

Sleep well, Flosey

1:57 am

Lizlin

I'd love to see their photos too.

1:57 am

flosey

ty Liz

1:57 am

rubyfoo

bye flosey

1:57 am

sprite

sleep well, flosey *hugs* And sweet dreams to you.

1:57 am

Lizlin

Flu isn't fun.

1:57 am

sprite

no, poor Don. I hope he will feel better soon.

1:58 am

Lizlin

Indeed.

1:58 am

Lizlin

Miserable to come back from a fabulous holiday and then to get ill.

1:59 am

sprite

very true.

2:00 am

sprite

I've been meaning to ask, did the whales show up for the trip with your friends?

2:03 am

sprite

(sidenote: I want coita to be the plural of coitus)

2:04 am

Lizlin

Quite a few whales but not very active but they enjoyed it. There were many more whales today than last week. Then we went and had a lovely lunch and then we watched the huge bats we have here sleeping in their trees.Now they're resting or looking at photos and I'm doing this!

2:05 am

Lizlin

I tried coita too.

2:05 am

sprite

wonderful! Glad they enjoyed it all. And glad I am not the only one to try that word.

2:05 am

Lizlin

They've only got another 2 days here :(

2:06 am

sprite

sounds like you'll miss them.

2:07 am

sprite

would love to see those bats too, in flight. We have tiny ones here and I love them.

2:08 am

Lizlin

We have huge fruit bats, also known as Flying Foxes. Just like the Batman image. Hordes of them fly over our house at night but they eat the mangos :(

2:08 am

sprite

sorry about that mangos but wow, that must be a sight!

2:09 am

Lizlin

It really is and visitors here are amazed by their size.

2:10 am

sprite

amazing creatures. You have lots of those there in Australia.

2:10 am

Lizlin

We do. I love living here.

2:10 am

Lizlin

Thankfully I've never seen anything really nasty.

2:11 am

sprite

that radiates from everything you tell about it :) It is quite a pleasure to enjoy it vicariously (sp?) through you.

2:12 am

Lizlin

Oooh! Both 7s killed. Still no 6s.

2:12 am

Lizlin

Correct spelling.

2:12 am

sprite

woooot well done Liz! I made it to 4 6s. Still not a single 7 though.

2:12 am

Lizlin

Got a 6 - because of the 7 I found.

2:13 am

Lizlin

And a 2nd one!

2:13 am

sprite

thanks for the spelling check!

2:13 am

sprite

gooooo Liz!

2:20 am

sprite

hah, one 7 found

2:20 am

Lizlin

Goooo Sprite :)

2:21 am

Maisie

Good morning all, been away babysitting for my son but back now

2:21 am

sprite

:)

2:22 am

Maisie

Saw your post about the party sprite. Well done you x

2:22 am

Lizlin

Just going to process a couple of bat pics for you Sprite - perhaps after a break I'll find some more words.

2:22 am

sprite

welcome home, Maisie, and lovely to see you. Thanks! For thinking of me too.

2:23 am

sprite

oh I'd love that, Liz! If it isn't too much work. Thank you!

2:29 am

Lizlin

Email done

2:29 am

Lizlin

and sent!

2:30 am

sprite

ohhh am gonna look right away

2:32 am

sprite

wow! They are really huge! The dutch ones are hand-sized at most, full wingspan. Those on your pics are... mammoths compared to them. Beautiful.

2:32 am

Lizlin

UK ones are probably similar to the Dutch ones. I wish I had one of them in flight - it's so Batman!

2:33 am

sprite

not easy to catch them in flight, I guess. At least, the ones I know have rather erratic flight patterns.

2:34 am

Lizlin

Help with the lowest a in the middle column, please?

2:35 am

sprite

ad6/30, floating along

2:35 am

Lizlin

And for that matter, with the 3 at the top of the same column. Thanks for the a :)

2:36 am

Maisie

Just got that and it gave me 3 other word

2:36 am

Lizlin

WTG Maisie - the sad thing is, I had the other words but not that.

2:36 am

sprite

good job, Maisie

2:36 am

sprite

en6/21 for that E, I think

2:37 am

Lizlin

Typo - that was meant to say e not 3!

2:37 am

Lizlin

Looking and thanks

2:37 am

sprite

thought so, lol

2:37 am

Maisie

Funny how we get word blind and miss the obvious

2:38 am

sprite

babble blindness. It is a real thing.

2:38 am

sprite

I have to say, all those A-something words, like afire and ahorse and this one, are words I always miss.

2:38 am

Maisie

Yes thats definitely it - Babble blind. Not even treatable

2:39 am

sprite

nope, no cure for that. Good thing it is balanced out by our ability to spot words like crwth and ywis and inia.

2:39 am

Lizlin

And the buffalo of course :)

2:40 am

Maisie

Never used any of those in a sentence

2:40 am

sprite

yeah, the flipping buffalo, lol. Fireflies!

2:40 am

Maisie

What's the buffalo?

2:40 am

Lizlin

Congrats, Sprite

2:40 am

Lizlin

an 4, Maisie

2:41 am

sprite

it is in my babble idiom list under buffalo babblet.

2:41 am

Maisie

Oh is it in todays puzzle if I know the word I didn't know it was abuffalo

2:41 am

Maisie

Lol will look sprite

2:42 am

sprite

over time, you le5 the weirdest words and their meaning in babble. My brain is a holding cell for scores of words I know and will never use casually :D

2:43 am

sprite

yeah, it is in today's grid, it is the only an word.

2:43 am

Lizlin

Never even think of those words except when they appear in babble.

2:43 am

Maisie

I had that

2:43 am

sprite

the worst thing is playing another word game and spotting those words, and then finding they are not valid in that game's word list!

2:43 am

Maisie

Just going to have a proper look at your list

2:44 am

sprite

well, there you are, meet the buffalo. :D

2:44 am

Lizlin

That's funny and so enable!!!

2:44 am

sprite

true, dat, lol

2:45 am

Lizlin

4 to go.

2:45 am

sprite

goooo Liz! I'll wait until you FW.

2:45 am

Lizlin

That's nice of you but don't delay if you've other stuff to do.

2:47 am

sprite

I am taking things easy today. Just shopping and cooking to do, and singing lesson tonight.

2:47 am

sprite

so let me know if you need help :)

2:47 am

Lizlin

Using Lickety now

2:49 am

sprite

that always helps with those nasty last few

2:50 am

Maisie

Wow that must have taken you ages to do, well done

2:51 am

Lizlin

Fireworks - that was frustrating! The last one was a tr4, that I could've sworn I'd entered.

2:51 am

sprite

it has grown over time, Maisie, am adding to it whenever I find something appropriate. I enjoy it :D

2:52 am

Lizlin

Time to go and process today's batch of photos. Thanks for hanging around, Sprite and hugs to you. Bye Maisie too. Hope you both have a lovely day.

2:52 am

Maisie

Bye Liz you have a good day too

2:53 am

sprite

wtg Liz!!!!!!!!!!! *hugs* and have alovely evening

2:54 am

Maisie
