So these two monkies walk into a bar in Kajikastan and...oh forget it.

12:59 am

GardenBoy29

I'm just trying to distract myself from the ridiculous score i have aquired

1:00 am

sprite

Wow shortseer, what great stats! Off to hunt for those 8's... now that I know they must be in here somewhere! ;-)

1:03 am

onyx

too late. my eyes are drooping, maybe i'll try tomorrow.

1:03 am

cjustine

i wish peignoir would work

1:04 am

GardenBoy29

yeah, that's more impressive than
...well I don't get out much so...well that's really impressive!

1:06 am

GardenBoy29

I only wish Ysintofort would work...

1:07 am

sprite

S8/55 is an alternate spelling for a word I wish I could make with that d*rn Y.

1:11 am

onyx

ok, i lied i wanted to find just one more word, but maybe i really am sleeping, i don't see an a on the grid but there is one in the stats, i'm confused

1:14 am

shortseer

oh for an edit button
... that a should be a c
sigh
sorry!

1:14 am

sprite

I think the A must be a C.

1:15 am

sprite

Okay, ready for the other 8?
T8/40: ice creams made of heavy cream often with minced almonds and chopped maraschino cherries and often flavored with rum.
*lol* Quite a def!

1:16 am

onyx

thnaks , i would have figured that out in the morning

1:16 am

cjustine

hey sprite... a clue on that s/8/55?

1:17 am

shortseer

mmm
icecream
... wanders off to get some ...

1:20 am

sprite

S8/55: instrumental composition serving as an overture.
But in lousy spelling. No Y. No PH. Not even an A at the end. I am pretty sure that if I ever handed in my homework with this word, it would have cost me points.

1:27 am

cjustine

oh thats bizarre... what a spelling

1:27 am

sprite

Yeah.. I forgot to mention: also no M.
*lol*

1:29 am

sprite

H7/40
P7/48
T7/28 (combo with the 8)

1:39 am

sprite

E7/40

1:42 am

airhead

I thought the ice cream with almonds cherries and rum was spumoni

1:44 am

sprite

spumoni: an Italian ice cream having layers of different colors or flavors and often containing fruits and nuts.
You are definitely on the right track. Hmmm... time for breakfast.

1:46 am

airhead

ok, I got it. I knew spumoni fit the description. Guess there was another name I didn't know about. I'm surprised at myself- I try to keep track of all ice cream flavors :)

1:47 am

sprite

Babble is a great game... learning something new every day! *lol*

1:52 am

Ashy & Sini

Can't play. Have to go buy some ice cream. Even if it's -10 degrees Celsius here and some snow on the ground.

shortseer

Hi sini !
hey it's quite 'cool' in sydney too
(20C)
:)

2:06 am

sprite

See? I've learned! That crazy word meaning "having a large bosom and pleasing curves" is back and I found it!

2:45 am

periwinkle

sprite, what letter does it start with?

2:46 am

sprite

It starts with S.
And it has two spellings, a 6/18 and a 5/16.

2:48 am

sprite

5 more words, only 4s and 5s, only Ss or Ts... almost done!

2:53 am

sprite

Wrong and dumb... I forgot the 4 of the N4/5 combo.
125 words / 4.65 / 1483 points.
Thanks shortseer, your stats made this much more fun!

Hello Babblers - it's cold and frosty today, just the day to be inside and playing. I've got stuck with another 30+ words to find!

Thanks for the help! There is another T6/21 that is very close to yours.

2:56 pm

Treble99

A clue for the E7 would be helpful

3:03 pm

fnurt

The E7 is 40 points, it ends with a 4/5.

3:15 pm

fnurt

I am still looking for the E6, H6, and the 4th I6 (I have IG 6/21, IN 6/18, IN 6/18).

3:26 pm

fnurt

The last I6 is also an IN for 18.
