Smiling to myself at references to 'issues last night' - red boxes etc. That was early this morning for me! My 'getting-up' time is 7.00am, which is one hour after the flip. I ease myself into my day with a quick scout for words on Babble. My whole day today was up scuttled because T

3:36 pm

Soodle

there was no Babble

3:40 pm

Soodle

Of course, the downside of Babbling early is the inevitable feeling of inadequacy as the 'Flip' players find all the really difficult words within seconds.... Sigh!
