10:37 am

"mens" is not valid because men is the plural of man. If you are thinking "Men's Room" it is possessive and would need an apostrophe. That is how I would reason why "mens" is not an accepted word.
3:28 pm

You know, I used to care what these words actually meant. Now, I think I just developed an addiction or OCD.

Your sp5/20 is an Algerian cavalryman in the French army. To break down the word, first think of a health sp* and then what 2-letter word you might say to a friend you met there.

I see some of you seem to know each other and e-mail each other etc. Do you all meet on another site or did you meet here? I did see someone ask earlier in the day how long 'babble' has been going and if BrandyJack's the puzzle setter but I don't think they got an answer.
I came here just this week after seeing the site addy in the UK's Mail on Sunday mag.

bless you LOL I actually managed to get it on my own *triumphant cheer* right before you posted.
8:10 pm
Jacula
battybeyond - LOL. I thought you were saying you were A Mercian. If you were, you'd be from Mercia here in UK.
I don't know your age, but if you're in your 40s like me, then you might well remember transistor radios and the little thing you plugged into the side of one in order to listen to it just to yourself? That's your 'ea' word.
8:11 pm

any breakdown for the ha9 please
8:12 pm

Jacula ~
I have 2 HA - 6/33
8:12 pm
battybeyond
Jacula... mid-20's. I'm at work and bored :)
8:14 pm
Jacula
Minski - I only have one ha6/33 so it's probably one of those I'm missing (not the one who plays the stringed instrument, sort of.)
8:15 pm
Minski
it goes inbetween the 9 and the 4 just above it and is related to the 4
8:16 pm
Minski
actually the root is the same as the 9 also
8:19 pm
battybeyond
yeah I've gotten everything but the Ha9 of the ha's.
8:21 pm
Minski
Batty
check out my last 2 clues. they might help you find the 9
8:21 pm
Jacula
I guess it starts 'harm'? But I'm no wiser.
8:22 pm
Minski
add a popular 2 letter suffix
8:24 pm
Minski
Are there really 2 Hi words? I can only find 1 and it's making me crazy.

Thanks, Minski
8:32 pm

How can there be 12 ha's when I have 10 of them but am only one word short of the h's? No wonder I'm getting confused on that last 'h' word.
8:32 pm
Minski
I'm still missing an Hi and 2 HAs (5/20 & 4/7)
8:33 pm
Jacula
Oh! Just done a recount and I've got 11. (Red-faced now.)
8:34 pm
brandyjack
i'm not the puzzle designer or setter. that honor belongs to the one Dr_God. I'm just a poor addicted sod with nothing better to do than waste my energy programming in old GWBASIC.
And all it does is use someone else's decoder to generate the list which it then analyses and spits out all those tantalising clues......
8:35 pm
Minski
I have 22 H words and am missing 3. I also have only 10 HAs but I am missing 2 of them.
8:39 pm

minski, had u any luck with the ha9 and ur site?
8:41 pm
brandyjack
it's the opposite of dissonances
8:42 pm
Minski
HINT:
There are 4 HA words that start with the same 4 letters. The HA 9 is one of them. In order they go....
4/9
6/33
9/84
5/20
HTH
8:43 pm
Jacula
Well thanks for all your sterling work BrandyJack. I do mean that! First thing I do when I log on is copy off the grid. Then I look for your breakdown of number of words and how many for each letter.
8:43 pm
Minski
Are there really 2 Hi words? Could I please have definitions if they exist? Also does anyone have the HA 4/7 that is either the 3rd word or the 4th word? I have one but not the other.
8:44 pm
Minski
WOW! I think I have the highest score ever for the least amount of words. 86 words for 1222 points.
8:45 pm
Jacula
After that I go away with a pen & paper and either sit at the kitchen table or in the garden (depending on the weather) and see what I can come up with for myself. I then put all those words in and go to look for clues from the log after that.
8:45 pm

I have 91 with 1369 - lots of long words today
8:47 pm

the Enable dictionary needs a serious houscleaning -
hi4/7 A unit of liquid measure used by the ancient Hebrews, equal to about five liters
Hi4/7 - To go quickly; hasten.
8:49 pm
Minski
Thanks Brandy. Found the missing Hi. Still missing a HA 4/7 though.
8:50 pm
Jacula
i thin I may be looking for a 'harm' 6/44,
8:51 pm
battybeyond
oh dear, now I'm missing an In6
8:51 pm
Jacula
meant harm 6/33 (not the one who plays an instrument)
8:53 pm
Jacula
Is that the trouser length, the things on the side of the top of your body or the width between your thumb and little finger when stretched out?
8:53 pm

one who harms is a harm^^

They used to post the points breakdown on the right side of the screen. Where is it posted now? I don't remember it.
8:56 pm
Jacula
Minski - Thanks. for that. Got it but still can't find it in the grid. Only one word to go now and that's that last pr6.
8:57 pm

9:09 pm
brandyjack
ha/4 + mo/6
9:11 pm
battybeyond
can anyone help with an in6? i've got the plural of the ina, the pantlength and the fingerlength
9:12 pm
battybeyond
the ha9 starts off as your ha4 that's negative and ends up being musical in nature, but is not a root of your musical ha4
9:12 pm
battybeyond
and it's a plural
9:14 pm
Jacula
BrandyJack - that last pr6 (not the first reading book/pre-paint thing). Heeeelllp, pretty please. I won't sleep if you don't:-(
9:16 pm
battybeyond
jacula... i think what you're looking for is the plural of one of your pr5's
9:16 pm
battybeyond
the present tense of pritifying.
9:20 pm
Jera
Need help: HE5 not plural piles
9:20 pm
Jera
Scratch that... got it
9:20 pm

plural kind of rope made from wacky weed.
I'm looking for my In6 if anyone can help. It's
making me nuts
9:22 pm
brandyjack
pr6/36 To dress or groom (oneself) with meticulous or excessive attention to detail. Plural of the pr5/22
9:24 pm
Jera
Okay, need IN6... not plural limbs or pantlength... TIA
9:26 pm
Jera
I also have 2 MA4's that are driving me crazy.
9:26 pm
Jacula
I'm there. 144 word, 2209 points. Thank you BrandyJack. I guess I owe you several shots of your favourite brandy now? Which is?
9:26 pm
Jax
jera and batty - in 6 - think of a bridge and what it does
9:26 pm
brandyjack
this puzzle has been bad for mis-directions. that M over by the two O's is almost invisible compared to the two M's atop each other. So you make the PR5/22 that is easy to see, but you miss the same word using the other M becasue it is so difficult to see and thus miss the pluralisation of it. Although strictly speaking it may not be a plural..... My grammar is not the best. I got a 51 in english studies so they wouldn't have to look at my ugly face for another year.....
9:29 pm
brandyjack
er, Napoleon liked his brandies, look what it did to him... I prefer a good bottle of Drambui or Grand Marnier.
9:29 pm
Jacula
batty - that last 'in'. It's what your fingers would be if they were where you expected them to measure. The proper definition is 'attach a yoke or harness to' (an ox, donkey or other beast of burden).
9:32 pm
Jacula
Well BrabdyJack, I don't know where you live, but I would guess the US or Canada, given the times you are here? I keep odd hours and so hence the nickname 'Jacula' (it's really Jackie or Jacq). There's a bottle of Grand Marnier her in UK for you. Thanks for all your help.
9:33 pm

There's the ton of bricks I needed,, thans jacula... you too jax, not your fault I'm dense, LOL

9:49 pm

mom23 - that semper word, as you put it (last 2 letters turned around) IS a word. It's a Latin term used in music now and means 'mainly the same throughout'. Much like modern so-called 'music' then! LOL.
9:50 pm

my brain's a little fried. could you please expand upon that hint for the MA 7? I know I'm going to kick myself when I finally get it.
9:55 pm
smithchick
Think of a phallic symbol--What it was formerly called (in the interest of not being crude?)
9:55 pm
cathy22w
minski... expand is perhaps a very topical choice of word for this particular clue, especially in the context!
9:56 pm
Jacula
Jera - politest version of what you are looking for today is 'when a boy grows up, he enters ma*****.
Failing that, try 'male headgear', 'meat and 2 veg', 'middle wicket', 'bat & balls' or the drawing
