1:31 pm

carolecs

Sadly I have no Babble mates, they are all down the Pub, and no good at puzzles anyhow.

1:32 pm

Treble99

She just happened to be here when I was playing I am sure she would rather be at the pub

1:34 pm

carolecs

Lol, me too.

1:42 pm

RAF

Help! I'm sorry - I know I wrote before, but this is my first time playing and I am completely stuck! I've found all of the stupid 4 letters words but have seemed to exhaust all my resources... Any suggestions? (I need to be at the pub!)

2:43 pm

boatierra

RAF, the things you can do is go thru your wordlist and see if any of your words can be pluralized (if there is an S in the puzzle, or they may end in an I), made past tense, made into a person i.e. read - reader, or if a smaller word can be within a larger word i.e. fine - confine - confined. Also there is a web site called a2z WordFinder, which is great to use when your brain is totally exhausted. Hope this helps.

2:48 pm

RAF

thanks!
