adn ru.. ni/// was rel;ieved to hear that you are ok... the fires are terrible... i recall a forest fire in maine when i was a child... my aunt and uncle lost their house and barns and daily cattle... it was heartbreaking

12:17 am

Lizlin

Thanks, Broll

12:18 am

sandyloo

hi ru, are you near the fires?

12:18 am

rururocks

12:18 am

sammysmom

he also lost his hair while fighting the foresrt fires... the scars werent too bad the the hair never came back

12:19 am

licketySplitAUS

Clues are up

12:20 am

Lizlin

Thanks, Lickety

12:20 am

sandyloo

OMG! Wow, I appreciate the fear of fire as that is our biggest danger here. Whenever I hear helicoptors or see smoke I am really scared. Nothing is more terrifying. The speed of a fire can be mind numbing.

12:20 am

sandyloo

So glad you are safe and that your house is safe.

12:21 am

rururocks

it came within a short distance to my house and my ex's house too

12:21 am

rururocks

thank you sandy.. I'm happy to be home again... came home yesterday

12:22 am

sandyloo

That is something California and Aus have in common.

12:22 am

rururocks

yeah.. and we have a lot of bush men here too ;D

12:23 am

sandyloo

I really admire fire fighters. They put themselves in mortal danger. When there is a wind and a fire there is nothing to be done.

12:24 am

gapeach

How do I get todays Lickety...I now have the side by side here and I don't know how to get todays. Thanks

12:24 am

rururocks

we just had sooo much grass and undergrowth due to the enormous amount of rain we had

12:24 am

Lizlin

Peach - can you just refresh Lickety's page?

12:25 am

rururocks

co8

12:25 am

sandyloo

One of our worst fires here in Margaret River was started by the Shire fire bombing on a windy day. (crazy) They do it to reduce the undergrowth as a fire preventative.

12:25 am

rururocks

you'll hear applause when you find it

12:25 am

Yes, Liz, I just tried that.

Good morning sprite and flosey. You were too early for me yesterday, just missed you

1:34 am

sprite

*hugs Maisie* Hello dear one, how are you this morning? Am always early on Mondays, have to be out of the door at 9 am.

1:34 am

sprite

sorry to have missed you, and glad to see you now.

1:35 am

Maisie

I'll try to remember that, I'm fine. How are you

1:35 am

grannyrose

cooee {{sprite}} {{flosey}} maisie}} another resr day for me. didn't even do my one goal i had set for the day. am so tired, sleepy. how are my dear friends doing? xoxox

1:35 am

sprite

I am fine too. My daughter is home for two days, it is lovely to see her.

1:36 am

Maisie

Hi Rose, hope you enjoyed your restful day. Aw thatt's lovely sprite

1:36 am

grannyrose

oooh, sprite, quick, catch her a squeeze her until she yells uncle. kisses for Caya

1:37 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Hello my dearest friend. I am so glad you are taking days of rest now. Sleep, by all means! It will give your whole system a chance to recover.

1:37 am

sprite

UNCLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1:38 am

grannyrose

*smiles smugly*

1:38 am

sprite

*slowly regains breath*

1:40 am

Maisie

I dreamt about you last night Rose. One of those weird disjointed dreams. I visited you, got rid of an unwanted relative and gave Don some vouchers for something he wanted to do over here but he gave them back and said he wasn't coming anymore

1:40 am

sprite

will give Caya your kisses :) As soon as she wakes up.

1:41 am

sprite

awww that does not sound like a fun dream, Maisie.

1:41 am

flosey

has been a full day - good of course but tired now, picked up Son and his wife at the airport, they're here for 8 days

1:41 am

Maisie

like I said weird, but dreams often are. Must say I was disappointed when Don gave me back my vouchers

1:42 am

grannyrose

lolll maisie. that's so awful. i'll come without him in that case. xoxox

1:42 am

sprite

oh how lovely, flosey, to have your son and family over.

1:42 am

Maisie

Good idea Rose, Seems everyone has visitors today, have a lovely time with your son flosey

1:45 am

flosey

thanks all - the rascal has fallen asleep in a big armchair - not easy to wake him, guess I'll just have to leave lights on so he can find his way to bed should he wake up!

1:46 am

grannyrose

for goodness sake. just found my last d and i could swear i tried it earlier

1:46 am

Maisie

Nice and relaxed in your home. Did he have a long journey

1:46 am

sprite

yeah, throw an afghan over him, he'll be fine :)

1:47 am

flosey

good idea Sprite, will do that when I give up here

1:48 am

sprite

rose, happens to me all the time. Usually means I typoed somewhere in the word. Though very occasionally it can be the site acting up, when it freezes while you enter words.

1:48 am

sprite

and WTG Rose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1:49 am

grannyrose

it was such a weird word, that i clearly remember. but as you say, in the excitement etc

1:50 am

Maisie

red boxes

1:51 am

sprite

ikr? 13 years of playing babble and still getting excited over finding certain words :)

1:52 am

sprite

how dare they, Maisie!

1:52 am

Maisie

and I can never remember what word I entered!

1:54 am

sprite

it definitely helps when you use the babble expert. Even when the babble site does not register your word, lickety's browser does and you can add the missing words with one click once the site starts behaving again.

1:55 am

Maisie

Need to go , got a dog to walk before baby arrives. Never used babble expert will have to look into that. hgd all xoxo

1:55 am

sprite

have a grand day, Maisie *hug*

1:55 am

grannyrose

have a lovely day Maisie. just a few days now.

1:56 am

sprite

counting down till the holidays... I hope Maisie will be able and willing to check in here now and then while away... though I will understand perfectly if she won't :)

2:02 am

sprite

and rose, just a few days for you too. Will you stay overnight in the hospital?

2:02 am

grannyrose

depends if dr john can get me in. sometimes the ward is full.

2:03 am

sprite

do you need anything to help you through the hours? Like an audio book?

2:03 am

grannyrose

nah. i am so tired i will prolly sleep for thirty hours...

2:04 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs friends - might disappear suddenly as we're waiting to connect a call to a bank in the UK

2:04 am

sprite

that would be even better, honey. I think you might perhaps maybe possibly have overdone things a teensy tiny bit of late...

2:05 am

grannyrose

um you think ??

2:05 am

sprite

*hugs Liz* Hello dear friend! Good to see you.

2:05 am

Lizlin

Wow! They just answered. Back soon hopefully

2:05 am

sprite

YES I think so! Oops, did I yell?

2:05 am

grannyrose

hello dearest liz. the bank in England?? you are so hopeful.

2:06 am

sprite

when the bank of england stands... england stands! When the bank of england falls... england falls!
Quick, which movie?

2:07 am

Lizlin

Hubby talking -now I've confirmed who I am and given him permission. Stupid bank - ex5 security wanted but they want loads of UK documents, which we don't possess.

2:07 am

sprite

very silly of them

2:07 am

flosey

too tired tonight, I'm off to bed, bb in the morning

2:08 am

sprite

sleep well, flosey, and enjoy the company. *hug*

2:08 am

Lizlin

Sleep well Flosey

2:08 am

flosey

thanks Sprite and Liz

2:08 am

Lizlin

They need to check whether my Aussie driving licence and Aussie bank account, both of which have my address on, are OK. It is stupid!

2:09 am

grannyrose

sweet dreams dear flosey

2:12 am

Lizlin

Got to go - sorry for brief appearance. Hope Dr John can help you soon. Have a good day both of you.

2:12 am

sprite

*hugs to you both*, Liz. Have a lovely evening.

2:13 am

2:24 am

sprite

okay, I'd better get moving and get the groceries. Want to make a beef stew today, it has to simmer for long. *hugs* my darling. Take it easy. If you are sleepy, sleep... it is your body telling you it needs to recover. Luvsya. Both of you, but you a little more :D

2:30 am

grannyrose

5:50 am

Scrabbler

315 was not my guess with these letters.

5:56 am

Haz1558

I know what you mean.

5:56 am

Scrabbler

Hi, dear Haz! How are you?

5:56 am

Haz1558

I'm well, thanks. We had the tail end of a hurricane yesterday!

5:57 am

Haz1558

We weren't too badly affected although there are trees down. The lights didn't go out.

5:57 am

Scrabbler

I have seen some photos. What an odd event for your part of the world.

5:58 am

Haz1558

I know, it was very strange. I expected lots of rain but no, just very strong winds.

5:59 am

Scrabbler

Did your dog get anxious or sense something different?

5:59 am

car.eeyore

Good morning

5:59 am

Scrabbler

Hello, dear Car!

5:59 am

Haz1558

No, he was fine. He doesn't like thunder/lightning though.

5:59 am

Haz1558

Hello car.

6:00 am

car.eeyore

:) Hello

6:04 am

Haz1558

I have a funny feeling that this is going to be a slog of a grid at the end.

6:04 am

Scrabbler

I am 1/3 through but not typing at the speed that I expected.

6:05 am

Haz1558

No, it's not flowing terribly well.

6:06 am

Scrabbler

That CGU presence is annoying.

6:07 am

Scrabbler

And too many vowels. Yet, here we are.

6:07 am

Haz1558

We were lulled into a false sense of security with the top line.

6:08 am

Scrabbler

Haha.

6:08 am

Haz1558

Simple pimple, we thought.

6:09 am

Haz1558

al4/4 we were mistaken

6:09 am

Scrabbler

TY for reminding me to start some words with a vowel.

6:10 am

Haz1558

Not just vowels either. Sometime vowels too!

6:10 am

Scrabbler

I have 1/12 Y's.

6:11 am

Scrabbler

Now 2.

6:11 am

Scrabbler

Now 4, after your urging.

6:11 am

Haz1558

I've got 4 as well so we're even stevens.

6:12 am

Haz1558

I don't know why I'm rhyming everything today.

6:12 am

Scrabbler

And ur4 is a word.

6:12 am

Scrabbler

You are a poet but didn't know it.

6:13 am

Scrabbler

And now I must get ready for work. This grid is not easy peasy.

6:14 am

Haz1558

Safe travels to work!

6:14 am

car.eeyore

Have a great day!

6:14 am

Scrabbler

I am at the Native American Reservation Clinic today. where Babble is blocked. :-(

6:15 am

Haz1558

That's a nuisance. QP as well?

6:16 am

Scrabbler

Yes, all games. But they now allow FB. I bring a book to read during lunch.

6:16 am

Haz1558

You could be extra dedicated and write out the grid...

6:16 am

Scrabbler

I am reading The Nightengale which is such an emotionally charged story.

6:17 am

Scrabbler

Ah, great suggestion, Haz.

6:17 am

Scrabbler

Bye. ENjoy the day.

6:18 am

Haz1558

Not that I want to feed addictions or anything. Have a good day!

The problem with Enable (one of the many) is that it is inconsistent. It allows some abbreviations and not others. It allows some acronyms, and not others.
