Morning. Not seeing that 'not fresh' bit of the bo7 - 8 combo - can I have a nudge please?
3:31 am
Lizlin
Hi Matty. Think juvenile detention centre.
3:33 am
mattygroves
That did it, Liz! Thanks!
3:33 am
Lizlin
Yw. Perhaps that’s a Brit term?
3:33 am
mattygroves
Think so, yes. I'd never heard it until I came over here (almost 30 years ago - crikey)
3:34 am
Lizlin
I figured you’d been in the UK long enough to know the word.
3:35 am
Lizlin
It’s not used here either, I don’t think.
3:37 am
mattygroves
May I have stats for the i (i as in india?)
3:39 am

Got it - thanks!
4:14 am

back, shopping done, rob and terra off to canoeing and camping out, a lazy two days ahead for me :)

Helo, Sprite. Hope you are well?
4:20 am
zoozzoom
Two more tiles to do on the first run then off to see parents.
4:20 am
sprite
*hugs zooz* Hello dear man. Yes, I am fine. How about you, and how are your parents holding up?
4:21 am
zoozzoom
We are all trying to get over a cold. It has been just over two weeks now but we are getting there!
4:21 am
zoozzoom
Of course they had the flu jab then we got colds..typical!
4:21 am
sprite
ah, that is nasty. Glad the end is in sight. Yeah, the flu jab is just for specific flu viruses. Common colds and other flus are not covered, alas.
4:23 am
zoozzoom
Still at least it is nothing serious but I do worry for my elderly parents when they get things like this as it takes so long for them to get back to some sort of normality.
4:24 am
sprite
that is the rub, isn't it. They just don't recover as fast as they used to, and it takes them more energy. I understand your being worried.
4:25 am
zoozzoom
Supposed to be getting in the 70s for the next few days! Hope you will be getting the high temps too!
4:26 am
sprite
they are predicting them for us here too. Rob and Terra have gone camping and canoeing, might be the last beautiful weekend in a while. I will be at home, enjoying very quiet me-time. Might go sit in the garden for aspell
4:26 am
sprite
for a spell*
4:27 am
zoozzoom
Nice! Glad you will be getting some YOU time. so important for recharging the batteries!
4:28 am
sprite
it is! And all too rare, in a family like ours. Caya will come home on Monday for a few days, am so glad to see her again.
4:29 am
zoozzoom
It is good that she still comes back to the roost so to speak. Bet you have the room all ade up and ready! Are you doing anything nice together for the few days? Or just going to chill out?
4:30 am
sprite
chill out, no doubt. She's had a couple of very intensive months at the uni. She is ready for a bit of couch potato stuff.
4:30 am
zoozzoom
Good for her!
4:31 am
zoozzoom
How is your son doing?
4:31 am
sprite
she is my hero, lol. She is doing so well.
4:31 am
zoozzoom
Hang ono just got to scare the bloody crows off my roof!!
4:31 am
sprite
Tim is doing great as well. My other hero. He works in a restaurant/bar, irregular schedule but it fits him.
4:32 am
sprite
*whistles theme of The Birds by Hitchcock*
4:32 am
zoozzoom
Back..lol Sorry about that.
4:33 am
sprite
hey, real life comes first. No sorry necessary.
4:33 am
zoozzoom
Yeah working in a restaurant is hard work for sure. Glad he is getting his feet in the work zone though. Bet it has calmed him down a bit.
4:34 am
sprite
it definitely has. He is maturing before our very ey4. About time, grin. We are proud of him.
4:34 am
zoozzoom
I was told from day one to save as much of my earnings as possible. Glad I did.
4:35 am
zoozzoom
That is great to hear, Sprite!!
4:35 am
sprite
told him the same thing a thousand times. But he is not listening. And he is old enough now to make his own wrong decisions, so I stay out of it.
4:37 am
zoozzoom
Yes they have to learn there own way. And you are right they will make mistakes..we all did. No matter how much we try and steer them. But hey he will get there I am sure :-)
4:37 am
sprite
oh yes, he will. In all areas that really count, he is doing well. Friends, family, girlfriend, job. He is happy.
4:38 am
zoozzoom
Shows you have been great parents! Glad both your young adults are doing well, Sprite!
4:38 am
sprite
don't know about that, but we did the best we could. Thanks zooz!
4:40 am
zoozzoom
Trust me form what you have told me over the years they are doing just great. Good job to both of you. Now the icing on the cake is for one of them to make millions and make your life as comfortable as possible!!
4:40 am
sprite
ooooo I'd like that :D
4:40 am
zoozzoom
Although money is not everything but it certainly helps LOL
4:41 am
sprite
enough money to make life go smoothly, not so much that you have to worry about it.
4:42 am
zoozzoom
Exactly!
4:42 am
zoozzoom
Well I still have 105 words to find but they will have to wait until later. Nice to catch up with you, Sprite!
4:43 am

lovely to have chat with you, zooz. Have a good day and the best with your parents.

I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us — don't tell!
They'd banish us, you know.
How dreary to be somebody!
How public, like a frog
To tell your name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!

Ty bich. It is pretty awful in the bay area. Have to wear masks

It is usually easier for women to see phantom orgasms isn't it?
11:54 am
MollyL
Indeed. And seeing orgasm as a phantom word in the gird beats seeing witzelsucht, hands down.
: P
11:55 am

An effort to make you laugh, Ru. I know you are going through tough stuff.

I am coping molly. Things are improving in napa. The tubbs fire is the scary one now and the mount veeder fire. They look to be deadly as it they are moving too fast
12:08 pm
MollyL
It is frightening when you home and your livelihood is threatened by something as destructive as fire. I'm glad you are safe and that is the most important thing. The other things can be rebuilt.
12:08 pm

The fire fighters battling this awful fire deserve all kinds of credit. They are heroes.

It's wonderful that there are trained firefighters - in the 1950s a classmate of mine was with her family going to California for a vacation - they were stopped, and her father and uncle were put to fighting a fire, while she and her mother and grandmother were put to cooking for the firefighters! It's was hard on the vacationers of course, but it can't have been really good firefighting either.

I cannot get the page to come up either. I have turned off and come back in and it still won't come up.

Any other suggestions?

I had Lickety up earlier, was working fine, just came back in and not able to refresh clues
1:27 pm

it's definitely not a virus, it must be something on lickety's end if many of us are having trouble
1:27 pm
flosey
that was not more than an hour ago (estimating)
1:27 pm

I guess we will have to list what we have and go from there.

If Lickety is not coming up for you when it is up for everyone else, I would suggest using a different browser. If you are using Internet Explorer...don't. It is the worst browser available.
1:46 pm

Mael, the best way to find your missing 7 is to check the list.
