Krys10, you are the greatest! Thanks, also for eliminating the non-enable words. :)
Quite a grid, though... hope I can finish it, I do not have much time today.

12:22 am

Krys10

I have lots of faith in you ;)
I haven't had much time to play lately - been tagging along on paper, though. Tonight I can stay up late!

12:25 am

sprite

Perhaps we can dig up some words together then! :)

12:27 am

A8/60

12:30 am

Krys10

I have a 7/48 7/44 combo... wonder if it's the same as your words?

12:32 am

sprite

No, it wasn't! :)
I had the 7/48, but not the 7/44 that goes with it. Have now, though, thanks to you!

12:32 am

sprite

My 7/44 of 12.10 am starts R.

12:47 am

svejk

Although it is not a long word, I like the P6/24 that means "a regional dialect without a literary tradition". Perhaps Babblese would qualify some day?

12:54 am

Krys10

{sigh} wouldn't "adequate" be nice...

1:05 am

sprite

*lol* @ Krys10 and svejk!

1:52 am

Krys10

Ok, I'm off to bed. So far I've conquered the E's and W's, found one 8 and seven 7's, and three Scottish words.

1:52 am

Good night to you!

Getting closer now. Got most of the biggies, so I'll list them:

8s:
A40, A60, P55

7s:
A28, D36, D36-D32 combo,
E48-E44 combo, P40 (combo with P8),
Q44, R36-R32 combo, R44,
S28, S40-S36 combo, S32, T36

Missing two 7s.

Final 7 is an R44, longest of 4 words that all start the same and are all related to a ball game. They have been bugging me big time!
Another word that I couldn'd find for some time is one of Krys10's scottish ones, a W6/30.

260 words / 4.88 / 3486 points for today, I think. Sorry I have no time to give all the defs.

periwinkle

May I have a clue for the a/8/60

8:21 am

sprite

A8/60: someone who likes fish

11:52 am

keadyj

okay, why not pattoie?

12:07 pm

Krys10

Um, if you meant the same word I'm thinking of, it's there, just spelled differently.

12:45 pm

periwinkle

keadyj, if it is the word I just found, it means regional dialect, P/6/24.

1:44 pm

incender

is potata singular of potato?

2:14 pm

sprite

I thought the plural was potatato.

2:40 pm

periwinkle

Hints for the long words would be really nice :).

2:53 pm

periwinkle

Okay, so far I only have the P/8/55 which is a combo with the p/7/40. It is a thick soup or stew, one is singular, the other is plural.

2:59 pm

periwinkle

an interesting t/5/18 - a woman' small brimless hat.

3:05 pm

angeelu

I'm rubbish at 'A' words... no matter how many are in a grid I never get them all!! Will never find 21!

4:57 pm

periwinkle

sprite, I am having trouble finding the A/8 words. May I please have a second letter?

5:03 pm

periwinkle

I found an a/8/60 - one who maintains an aquariam.

Note to self: walking twelve blocks when it's -10 outside = bad idea. Babble and coffee seems like a good remedy...

so cold your nostrils freeze together...

Hehe, I did have some pretty nice icicles on my nose ring...

that's gotta hurt!
