6:55 am

hokie carla

hi, lindy

6:57 am

BzznBea

Good morning, peeps.

6:57 am

hokie carla

hey bea.

6:57 am

BzznBea

Carla, you made it home safely. Where did you wheels take you this time?

6:58 am

hokie carla

we went to Hilton Head. were going to stay just a few days but it was so nice there we stayed a few more.

6:59 am

BzznBea

A couple of my girlfriends from KS and I are planning a getaway this summer. We are going to staying on Emerald Isle.

7:00 am

hokie carla

I've never been there. It sounds nice.

7:00 am

BzznBea

It's my favorite beach in NC.

7:02 am

hokie carla

had to look at the map to see where it is

7:02 am

Meatball421

Love Hilton Head

7:03 am

hokie carla

I think Bea is trying to distract me (and maybe her) from the fact there are 52 P's

7:03 am

BzznBea

I love P's

7:03 am

hokie carla

yeah, HH is very nice this time of year. I think it's way too crowded in the summer.

7:04 am

BzznBea

And if you use the PREfix...

7:04 am

BzznBea

Any great beach is crowded in the summer.

7:05 am

hokie carla

not even to the 3rd row but have picked up 19 p's already. working on the A right now.

7:07 am

BzznBea

There are 58 C's

7:07 am

hokie carla

thanks for pointing that out

7:08 am

BzznBea

You're welcome.

7:20 am

well, 90 left after first pass. can't find the middle O or bottom R and 1 short of half on the middle col E.

7:24 am

It is digitally lindy

7:25 am

hokie carla

oh, found an o

7:26 am

BzznBea

Did you find the veg?

7:26 am

mattygroves

I am also missing that bottom R, along with the i (eye) above it - would anyone be kind enough to provide stats, please?

7:26 am

hokie carla

of course not, thanks

7:26 am

hokie carla

the i is ir5

7:26 am

BzznBea

ir5.14

7:27 am

BzznBea

I wonder if that bottom R isn't a biggie?

7:27 am

mattygroves

Thanks both!

7:27 am

BzznBea

My bet is it is.

7:28 am

mattygroves

That would be my guess, yeah.

7:28 am

hokie carla

I think the bottom R has to be an RE and it has to involve the R near it.

7:28 am

aslindy

that R is a 5/6 combo

7:29 am

aslindy

and you are right, hokie

7:29 am

hokie carla

that's small than I thought it would be.(TWSS) how haven't I monkeyed it yet?

7:29 am

hokie carla

7:36 am

hokie carla

7:36 am

hokie carla

mattygroves

Almost played with the Beatles?

7:37 am

BzznBea

Mr. Starr with a vowel

7:37 am

hokie carla

well e + he did play with the beatles, so almost him

7:37 am

mattygroves

Ah, gotya. Thanks again!

7:38 am

hokie carla

7:38 am

hokie carla

(though aided)

7:39 am

mattygroves

Woop! Found the 10

7:39 am

hokie carla

nice

7:39 am

MollyL

See I was thinking Pete Best for almost played with the Beatles. So far off.

7:40 am

hokie carla

I'm just happy I've found 10 of the 8s so far

7:40 am

mattygroves

I was thinking as Molly was! I only have five of the 8s, so a bit behind you

7:41 am

BzznBea

The Suffixes du jour make the 8's easier

7:41 am

hokie carla

pretty sure they all have the same ending

7:41 am

hokie carla

that's right, the last one I found had the other suffix

7:43 am

hokie carla

eek, only 10 4's left out of 74

7:46 am

hokie carla

phantom chignon

7:47 am

Uneaixoise

7:48 am

BzznBea

7:48 am

hokie carla

7:49 am

hokie carla

forgot about that one, thanks, bea

7:49 am

BzznBea

Good morning, welki.

7:50 am

welki

finallly unboxed the sewing machine yesterday. it took me longer to thread the needle than to make the little hand warmer (that turned out great).

7:50 am

BzznBea

Very nice!

7:50 am

hokie carla

did you get one with an automatic threader?

7:50 am

Scrabbler

Good morning, Babblers.

7:51 am

BzznBea

My trick to threading the needle is to lick you thumb and index and run it down the needle.

7:51 am

welki

no, but thinking i should have. i did find an ancient threader in my old sewing kit, so that worked out okay

7:51 am

hokie carla

howdy scrabbs

7:51 am

BzznBea

My auto threader never works correctly.

7:51 am

welki

i considered a self-threader, but thought it was one more thing that could break on the machine - wanted to keep it simple and easy

7:52 am

hokie carla

I have one that's a PITA, but the rest work great.

7:52 am

welki

(and i listened to bea - it's not hard with the threader and a friend told me that, if i want, there are more modern threaders for machines that work pretty well)

7:53 am

welki

hi scrabbs!

7:53 am

hokie carla

my coverstitch machine is a babylock with the air threading. it's so awesome. when my serger gives out I will definitely get a babylock serger for that.

7:54 am

BzznBea

I thought about getting a serger, but I don't sew clothing.

7:54 am

welki

in my (low) price range, i could have a variable speed pedal and a more powerful motor or a self-threader.

7:54 am

hokie carla

my LQS sells a ton of sergers and I couldn't figure out why since I seem to be the only one in the area who makes clothing. apparently a lot of quilters use them.

7:55 am

BzznBea

I've seen them used on the outsides of quilts that haven't been sandwiched yet.

7:59 am

hokie carla

well, I've gotta get busy. 62 left for later.

8:00 am

welki

later, carla

8:04 am

welki

there's an old (really old) folk music magazine in the grid

8:05 am

Scrabbler

Hm

8:07 am

welki

it was published in nyc when i was a kid, and i loved getting my hands on the magazines. it had articles, music, lyrics.

8:10 am

welki

we're expecting our first winter storm, scrabb - nasty winds, freezing rain and a few inches of snow. glad we've enough food for a few days. we also have a small generator, in case the power goes out.

8:12 am

Scrabbler

Our Alberta clipper just passed through yesterday and we 1-2 inches out there.

8:12 am

Scrabbler

A generator is smart. My mother needs one.

8:12 am

welki

yeah - sorry about that. just enough snow to make it messy.

8:13 am

Scrabbler

The radar map was far more impressive than what happened.

8:13 am

phaeton

hello...may I have stats for the top O pls

8:26 am

BzznBea

No idea, bichon. I've been worried about her.

8:27 am

bichon

No email for her?

8:28 am

BzznBea

Not in her profile.

8:30 am

MollyL

It is probably best not to assume the worst. Sometimes people just get tired of playing.

8:33 am

mael

she was such a regular player that I'd be surprised if she just stopped, though

8:34 am

mael

I hope she's on a lovely vacation!

8:34 am

penquis

same here...

8:34 am

BzznBea

Me too, mael.

8:34 am

bichon

Did she once say she was in a wheelchair?

8:35 am

BzznBea

Yes.

8:36 am

phaeton

does the to6/24 have to do with the foot digit?

8:37 am

montreal13

8:37 am

mael

yes, phae

8:37 am

penquis

think gerund...

8:37 am

BzznBea

From other things she has said over the years, I gather her husband takes care of her and helps her get in and out of bed.

8:37 am

cybernan

10:34 am

hokie carla

10:42 pm

Jacula

I seem to be awake at silly am (4.41 am in UK). Grid is long done for me so if anyone needs clues I'm here for a while.

10:56 pm

Jacula

No takers?

11:04 pm

Jacula

Just checked the ranking list for the first time in about 4 years. I'm still ranked 9th. lol

11:16 pm

Jacula

Ri5/16, if there is no one in need of clues, I'll be off now. Stuff to do!

11:17 pm

Jacula

Stuff at this time of the morning mostly involves cats and foes.

11:18 pm

Jacula

Foes? Where did my x go? I should have said foxes. lol

11:20 pm

Jacula

Clunky keyboard yet again. Must put a new one on my Christmas present list!

11:21 pm

allyall

made it to HOET and 77 left

11:23 pm

dcseain

we have fewer foxes where i live since the coyetes arrived.

11:30 pm

Jacula

seain - thank goodness we don't have coyotes here in UK.

11:30 pm

Jacula

allyall - Hi! Just yell if you need clues/

11:31 pm

dcseain

the wolves didn't eat the foxes, but the coyotes do. Coyotes only arrived this side of the Appalachians about 8 years ago.

11:32 pm

Jacula

That's interesting. seain. I wonder why that happened?

11:33 pm

Jacula

I remember watching a wildlife programme on TV about how the reintroduction of wolves into an area in the US rebalanced it.

11:34 pm

dcseain

early settlers killed them here (I'm in Virginia near MD and DC) ANd a bit to the West of the Appalachians in Ohio at least. took them time to work their way back east.

11:34 pm

allyall

I teach HS math and I have never used the word pe8

11:34 pm

dcseain

they mostly outcompete the wolves.

11:35 pm

dcseain

pr8, allyall?

11:35 pm

allyall

pe7/8

11:35 pm

Jacula

allyall - I remember that word for the 360 deg angle from maths lessons in the 70s in UK, and I'm rubbish at maths.

11:36 pm

allyall

LOL :)

11:36 pm

Jacula

pr8/50 is what you hope to get if your pr5/12 machine doesn't throw a wobbler! lol

11:38 pm

Jacula

seain - sounds like the coyotes need culling/managing!

11:38 pm

dcseain

they are solitary, with large territories.

11:39 pm

Jacula

They sound a menace, seain!

11:39 pm

dcseain

we do have annual deer hunts.

11:39 pm

dcseain

only bow and arrow, and densely populated area.

11:40 pm

Jacula

Yes, we have deer culling here, which is a necessity, and also unnecessary badger and fox culls.

11:41 pm

Jacula

Bow and arrow, like gun shots are only kind if the marksman is accurate.

11:42 pm

dcseain

agreed re marksmen

11:42 pm

dcseain

we have one remaining fox hunt in my region, in Middleburg, VA in May. It's a no-kill hunt.

11:43 pm

Jacula

For badger culling, read unfair trapping using dogs, nets and lamps at night. For fox culling, read despite the horse and hound hunting having been banned, it still happens here.

11:44 pm

dcseain

the horse and hound style is the state sport here in VA.

11:45 pm

dcseain

jousting is the state sport in Maryland.

11:45 pm

dcseain

the Maryland Renaissance Faire hosts the annual Maryland Jousting Championship tournament in October.

11:47 pm

Jacula

I think that's awful, seain! I've never agreed with that method. Have you ever seen an exhausted fox torn apart by hounds and watched the awful hooray Henrys blooding their children on their first hunt by smearing the fox's blood on their cheeks and forehead. Totally barbaric!

11:47 pm

Jacula

Jousting is good, seain!

11:48 pm

dcseain

I have, seen yes. I used to attend the Middleburg Hunt regularly.

11:48 pm

Jacula

Watch jousting at Warwick Castle every now and then.

11:49 pm

Jacula

I think we will have to agree to disagree about hunting animals.

11:49 pm

dcseain

oh, nice re the jousting.

11:50 pm

dcseain

the fox hunt is mean. Other hunting we eat the animals.

11:51 pm

Jacula

Yes, hunting and making a clean kill is a better way of finding meat than factory farming them to send them to the abbatoir.

11:51 pm

allyall

help with to7 the first ?

11:52 pm

Jacula

allyall - to7/40 is not this morning.

11:53 pm

allyall

ty! clearly tired, seems obvious. 41 left, but going to bed. well past my bedtime.

11:54 pm

Jacula

Dormez bien, allyall.

11:54 pm

dcseain

sweet dreams, i'm off to bed too. Happy Babbling, yall!

11:55 pm

Jacula

Sleep well, Seain.

11:57 pm

Jacula

3 mins to go now. If anyone needs a last minute clue better ask quickly!

11:59 pm

11:59 pm
