12:06 am
Jacula

LOL, Wolfie! He's only trying to draw my attention away from the new grid.;-)
12:07 am
GreyWoulf

Ah!!! I haven't even looked at the board seriously -- I didn't know!
(*pouts*) -- Do I gotta?

12:14 am
Jacula

Not looked seriously at grid yet.
12:16 am
GreyWoulf

Doing better, Blaze -- I've been taking it fairly easy by not bending too much and have been taking meds left over from when it acted up over the summer :)

I was very happy to find that I was able to dance with my daughter today with no probs whatsoever :D
12:17 am
Blaze

that sounds wonderfull...
12:19 am
cybernan

You're right GW -- one of my en 7's was actually the 48, not a 40
12:19 am
GreyWoulf

It was great -- I was able to properly introduce her to Xmas carols this year.

But the CD she loved the best was a Royal Guardsman disc I have which has all three Snoopy vs. the Red Baron songs on it... She is on a serious Snoopy kick right now :D
12:21 am

GreyWoulf

lickety -- what was wrong?
12:23 am
licketySplitAUS

grey... lifted a jogger pram the wrong way... doc said because I had my babies only one year apart... my back didn't recover. the S1 is very sensitive at times and need to rest as much as possible
12:25 am
Jacula

Lickety - know what you mean about your back! Same prob. here. Your back muscles, some of which support those that band around and under the womb soften, in order to aid birth. Go 'too quick' between births and you're knackered for life.
12:25 am
GreyWoulf

My sympathies, lickety -- at least I don't have that prob -- tho it may be a herniated disc -- just can't afford to get back to the doc to confirm :(

Next year - definitely
12:26 am
licketySplitAUS

Poor Grey.... Thanks god for free health care in this country!
12:26 am
Jacula

I went a bit longr between my two - first born May 84 and 2nd March 87, but it still happened. Wasn't too bad after first, but after 2nd back and bladder muscles were damaged.
12:29 am
Jacula

Health care's still sort of 'free' here, too. Mind you, in view of the news saying if you get overweight, smoke or drink too much you may not now be treated on NHS, I'm sure it won't be too long until the 'crime' of giving birth will also be discriminated against.
12:29 am
licketySplitAUS

Jac, by the time my son was due, I couldn't walk at all, had to be in hospital for 3 weeks until he was 37wks then the docs induced me (OWWW!)
I had an 11 month old baby at home and she wasn't allowed to stay with me in the hospital
12:30 am
Jacula

Lickety - being separated from your newborn is the very worst thing.:-(
12:30 am

Today I must not babble... today I must not babble... today I must not.... but what if it is a small one... just one peek... ah come on, who am I fooling??

good morning

GW -- can you get either acetezone forte or parafon forte in the states? Both are an anelgesic/muscle relaxant combo -- keep the muscles in your back from going into a spasm when you're having a lot of back pain.
12:32 am
licketySplitAUS

I have been hospitalized so many times, the kids think it is normal! If I say I am going on a business trip for a few days, they freak out... If I say I am going to hospital for a few weeks, they open the door for me and wave good-bye!!

A quick read through the log tells me all is not well in babble land! Sorry to hear you are in pain, Woulf :( :(
My heartfelt sympathies for all of you...

Yes, Zubie.... I was in the cold world last week.... Nyquil and Dayquil kept me going..( actually the store brand --doing the same thing).... LOTS of fluids....LOL

12:35 am
Jacula

They did the separation thing on me when I was forced into hospital when having my first, since he was stubbornly breech and coming 3 weeks early. Still had him naturally though! Apparently, I was the first in 21 years to do so in that hospital. They looked up when their 'last stubborn bitch of a mother' was, turned out it was one of my aunties. Oh ROFLOL.

Had my second, 3 days late, at home. Was the best experience ever. Could have had a cuppa and done it again just to see the look on the husband's, midwife's, student midwife's, and GP's faces again. I didn't need to feel the wonder again because I've felt it ever since. I'll never forget that I performed a miracle, even if it was an everyday one!
12:35 am

althoug birth happens everyday... it is a miracle... especailly when you do it or you watch it... I had two of my own and watched my four grandchilren being born... it was the most awesome experience....
12:37 am
Jacula

Sprite. I'll start typing words in. We can do it together.:-)
12:38 am
sprite

A joint venture then, Jacula!
Love your post about you giving birth :)
12:38 am
Jacula

Blaze - it never fails to amaze me, given all the births there are, how many go right rather than 'wrong'. Nature is a wonderful thing!
12:39 am
Blaze

I truly is.... and the mothers are marvelous too....
12:39 am

My little miracles are sitting here, watching me typing, and begging for food! Better go do dinner!!
12:40 am

Lickety - yes, feed the little darlings, but be sure to give them cooking lessons as you do so!
12:40 am
GreyWoulf

site ate my post!

C-nan -- can prob get drugs with Dr's Rx - but vcan;t afford to go right now

Truly, the back is more inconvenient than severe -- I was dancing with and swinging my daughter around today with no ill effects -- it may have even helped!

But thanks for your concern everyone -- it does feel nice to be on the receiving end sometimes :D

(((*hugs to all*)))

Have to go down and make my little wonders some breakfast. Funny thing, time zones combined with internet :D Back soon...
12:41 am

Sprite - Have just put my 1st word in. It was accepted. Your turn!
12:42 am
luvmypom

Just have to jump in to the "birthing" conversation -- I've borne 6 children ... ages 16 - 30 now. All of them natural -- no problems excepting some minor back problems. It really is a miracle the way nature works, isn't it? :-) (btw, 3 of 6 were 10 or 10+ lbs! Ouch!!!)
12:43 am
cybernan

GW - those are both 'over the counter' -- work really well for me -- I have a collapsed disc that bothers me sometimes.
12:43 am

Jac, my kids need more than cooking lessons... "keep your food on the plate... don't lie down when you are eating... don't feed the dog that!!...use the fork Luke!!"
12:43 am
GreyWoulf

I was with Kirsten the whole day as they induced her due to pre eclampsya concerns -- unfortunately, baby got stuck and didn't want to come out so after 12 hours they did an emergency c-section -- the experience was still awe inspiring --- My hat is off to all the mothers in the room tonight
(*salutes*)

12:45 am

c-nan -- I'll check them out then :)

Speaking of Kirsten, time for me to rub HER back -- back in a few :)
12:46 am

Lumypom - 10lbs and over? OWWWWWWWWWWW!

Wolfie - I gave you the back-rubbing instructions for during birth, I think?
12:47 am

I think we need to clone GW -- he seems too good to be true. During the delivery of #6, my hubby sat in the recliner and watch ESPN. Seen it before he said. lol
12:47 am
Jacula

Lickety - Know just what you mean about the kids!

Going off into a trance now - fave song of all time is in my headphones. Does anyone remember what that is?
12:48 am

i agree luvmypom we need to clone him.
12:48 am

Yup -- my biggest was 10'4" -- looked like a 3 mo old in the nursery. All cheeks and blonde hair -- my own cabbage patch doll. :-)
12:50 am

luvmypom - Is your hubby a big chap, or are you, or are are you diabetic? Those really are huge babies!
12:50 am

bigger babies seem to be more common now as a days...

blaze good luck i don't think i'll make it that far
12:51 am
Jacula

Blaze - don't panic! I've looked half-seriously at the grid and got 30 words out of the 35 I tried. There's no rush.
12:52 am
Blaze

I am not in a panic... it will be clear as mud when the Brandy jack list comes out.... LOL
does anyone know if he saw the tributes yesterday ??
12:53 am
Jacula

Just flipping my fave song back to the beginning, since it's the single version and not the live version. As I asked before, does anyone remember what song this is? If I die right next to you and you don't have me 'sent off' the the live version, I'll haunt you! LOL.
12:54 am

No idea..... I am looking for the George Strait sugar cookies song.... anyone have any ideas ??
12:56 am
luvmypom

I'm 5'4", and my hubby is 6'4". No diabetes at all, just good hardy birthin' stock I guess. lol My sister has 9/10 pounders too. My smallest was 8'7", 8'12" and 9'. Then 10' , 10'4", and 10'2". It's take three gyno surgeries to put me back together. I'm still waiting for the tummy tuck! lol
12:57 am
Jacula

Well,Blaze, my all time fave song is....

Wolfie? Do you remember?
12:58 am
luvmypom

Jacula -- I give up -- what is the song? I wouldn't want you to win the lottery and die from shock, and us not knowing which song to bury you to. :-)
12:58 am

Jac I do remember you telling us but I just do not have good recall skills.....

something by the beach boys?
1:00 am

Luvmypom - (Aussie married to a UK bloke?? - Just trying to guess origin of screen name.) I'm only 5' 1" and not quite 2". My ex-hubby was/is 6'. New partner is 6' 2". I have had a few shorter than 6' boyfriends, but, in the main, since I was in my teens, I seem to have attracted big tall chaps.
1:00 am
Blaze

I think it is more up scale... and a female singer....
1:01 am
Jacula

All time fave song - make a note of it please - is Lynyrd Skynyrd's live version of 'Freebird' (sometimes listed as 'Free Bird').
1:02 am

I'm back!

Have just scanned the log and have to say that my ears are burning a little -- my only reaction to the cloning comments are a warning that cloning does not guarantee that the personality would be the same

1:03 am
Jacula

Well, Blaze if you send me your e-mail addy (and it's one that can cope with sound files) through BabAnon, then I can send you the track direct.
1:04 am

Reading that warning, I will not read through the log, Woulf ;)
Back as well and ready to hunt some nice words. Wasn't yesterday's grid a sweetie?
1:04 am
Jacula

CJ lots of numbers - I was playing that track earlier.
1:04 am
GreyWoulf

Jac - I must admit that I did not remember off the top of my head about 'Freebiird', but since I am not your bloke, I don't lose as many points! :D
1:04 am

Blaze - you need just 48 more? How many do you have now?
1:05 am

61 and going nowhere fast -- think I'll leave it until tomorrow. Good night all.
1:05 am

jac i live in alabama so its a song i hear often
1:06 am
Jacula

Wolfie - since you are not 'my bloke', yes, you do get let off that one. But you most note it now or points will be taken off you in future! Wolfie's the Babbleonia First Gentleman, btw, folks.
1:06 am
luvmypom

Jacula , Freebird - live version. Now noted so not to worry.

High school sweethearts -- me drill team captain, him basketball team captain. Kinda makes you cringe, huh? He's a University basketball coach now ... I'm taking a few years off after being a middle school secretary for 20 years. Loved the school kids a lot... I miss them.
1:07 am

That's fair, Jac ;)

Okay GW -- no dna sample required then. You make a valid point about the personality issue. But would the massage skills still be intact do you think? :D
1:08 am

Jac on babanon free bird topic
1:09 am
Jacula

Blaze - have you already done it or are you suggesting it as a way of posting the song?

1:09 am
GreyWoulf

in part, lovemypom -- I seem to be a natural talent on the massage front-- Kirsten finetuned me since she is a trained masseusse -- but I manage to find all the trouble spots and hit them in just the right way to loosen them up with minimal exertion :)
1:09 am
Blaze

Jac it is done
1:10 am
Jacula

Cybernan - don't give up yet! There must be hours to go that you can take the grid to pen and paper and have a go in yet?
1:10 am

And that cannot be replicated, I am sure, Woulf ;)
Anyone babbling? It is a nice grid, this one, too! 65 and still on a roll :D

Yayy! You like fruitcake too! :D

Of course, homemade! :D The best kind!

most store bought fruitcake is only good for one thing -- being a paperweight -- way too many preservatives weighing it all down
1:26 am
sprite

Blaze: nothing we haven't seen before. The Ey-department is interesting today and the Y is used quite a lot, both for endings and in the middle of words. A few of the usual (anoa-like) suspects are in the grid too ;)
1:26 am
Jacula

Oops! Got 40 words now.

Wolfie - Do you mean you want to come and eat my Christmas cakes, or that you want the recipe? A bit late for this year, though I can give you a Caribbean recipe that would just about work and one for D undee cake. Just as good! Am icing cakes later today or sometime tomorrow.

So late with everything this year...

1:41 am
GreyWoulf

G'Nite CJ -- rest well!
1:41 am
Blaze

GW it is always the letter that comes first in the grid as it makes the word..... first row then first column...
1:43 am
GreyWoulf

Aww, Blaze -- now you took all the fun out of it! ;)
1:43 am
Blaze

it is still fun especially when the word can be made from several different places....
1:45 am
GreyWoulf

true :)
-- then, of course, it can be just as amazing to see how many words originate from a SINGLE square :D
1:46 am

like the 14 hiding in the A letter....
1:46 am
GreyWoulf

Exactly! LOL
1:47 am

Daughter's boyfr reckons Dr-God will give us a 1000 word grid on 19th Dec (1000th grid day). Is that possible??
1:48 am
Blaze

he needs a boot to the bottom... what a nasty thought.... it would need to be a three day grid
1:48 am
GreyWoulf

possible -- yes, probable - not bloody likely!

1000 word grid would preclude most of us from completing the grid and thus defeat the fun of the game
1:49 am
luvmypom

oh lordy -- 1000 word??? It that even possible??? *feeling a bit light headed*
1:49 am
Jacula

Blaze - re the boot. Don't tempt me. He ain't the 2nd son the first full-timer was/still is. GRR! No one tells you that one about being a parent, looking on, do they?
1:50 am
Blaze

Jac no they don't and it takes some pretty strong blinders sometimes... and tonque biters too..... only a mother would know....
1:51 am

Well, if Dr_God does find a 1,000-word grid, I reckon he'll give us a minimum of 2 days to do it!

Lickety are you into footie??? (Rugby League) as we call it..We have a few Aussies in our local team.
2:03 am
GreyWoulf

I haven't had a really good bread pudding in ages!

Unfortunately, Kirsten doesn't like it which means I have to make it myself and I just don't have the time
2:03 am
luvmypom

Jac, they had the gingerbread national competition on our "Food Network" channel. Some of those houses were spectacular! People worked for hundreds of hours on them.
2:03 am
Jacula

Wolfie - Ah, bread pudding. I think there about 2 pieces left in the tin from this week's. I saw Other Half shove at least 2 slices into his lunch pack earlier!
2:05 am
GreyWoulf

luvmypom -- was that the one with the spinning carousel? We saw it too!
2:05 am
licketySplitAUS

Footy? No... soccer is my thang! I don't get the rugby.
2:05 am
Jacula

Wolfie! Making bread pudding takes no more than an hour or so! You soak the bread and milk for 30 mins and then add the rest of the ingredients, and cook for about an hour and 15 mins.
2:06 am
luvmypom

(note to self re GW: kitties, kids, massages, AND cooks! perhaps the cloning idea is back on) :D
2:06 am
Jacula

Luvmypom - Yes, me and my daughter looked at many of those pics on the net.
2:07 am
lottijw

Oh, well..... I can`t stand soccer.
2:07 am
GreyWoulf

Jac - I know - but the only time I have to work in the kitchen is now and usually I am too tired to remember that I have anything else going on other than Babble!
2:07 am
Jacula

No, cloning is not back! Like The Gentleman said, cloning may not necessarily bring back all the good points.
2:08 am
luvmypom

GW - Yes... the carousel. Too bad they didn't place better. But man, the creativity in that room was amazing. Being unable to draw a stick figure, I really admire people with artistic talent.
2:08 am
licketySplitAUS

Unless GW is a pure breed... can't guarantee anything!
2:09 am
Jacula

Well , Wolfie, I'm either gonna have to send you the recipe or the word list, on a day you a free! Can't someone else watch things for you re oven times?
2:09 am
GreyWoulf

Besides, I do have my faults, I choose not to advertise them is all -- I am no where near perfect
(*blushes beet red and dives to hise behind monitor*)
2:10 am
Jacula

Wolfie - of COURSE you are not 'perfect'! NO ONE would luv ya if you were!
2:10 am
luvmypom

Sorry GW, we shouldn't talk about you like you aren't here. But it's awfully cute that you blush!! lol
2:12 am
GreyWoulf

Jac - remember it is 3 AM right now for me -- I should really be sleeping like Kirsten already is -- but send the recipe I promise I will make it Xmas eve -- I'll be off from work and may have the apt. to myself for a few hours :D
2:13 am
Jacula

My other half was on here Sat or Sun., talking about cooking the Sunday roast. Made him sound perfect, too! LOL.

He isn't, but, if he was, I doubt I'd love him. He can cook though! Bless him! I may have drawn a short straw for 1st 22-year relationship, in more ways than cooking, but I think I've got it right this time!
2:13 am
GreyWoulf

luvmypom -- our fav bit from the gingerbread special was the little girl who won the kids division -- her squeal of delight made the whole show wirth watching!
2:14 am

2:14 am
lottijw

Morning Sam :o)
2:15 am
Jacula

Lotti - I know! I read the convo and it was youthat made him blush! LOL.
2:16 am
Jacula

Normally, I hate pizza, but his pizzas are 'to die for'!
2:16 am
luvmypom

Jac, That's great that you appreciate your guy now that you've found him. Many happy years ahead to you both.
2:17 am
lottijw

LOL.....He made me laugh when he said don`t tell Jac I was here!!!! Like you don`t scroll back to catch up on conversations!!!!! Anyway, I take it his back is still ok??!!!
2:18 am
speedfreak sam

Did you see the traffic in london yesterday it was horrible! it tok us 2 1/2 hours to get home there saying they won't be able to get the fire out till next monday!
2:18 am
luvmypom

GW, she was such a cute little girl. And I thought the sister's who won were fun too. They were so excited. I couldn't imagine putting in all those hours and having it ruined during the travel. How disappointing.
2:18 am
Griffums

Hey all. Just got home from a grand evening, checking the grid to see whether it will keep until tomorrow, and looks like it will....
2:19 am

Sam, it`s awful isn`t it......at least nobody was badly hurt!
2:19 am

Yikes, what are you still doing up?
2:19 am
speedfreak sam

hi griffums.
2:19 am
Jacula

Luvmypom - Thanks! I will! Had a decade alone.

Lotti - Yes, his back's better, thanks.:-))) He knew what he was saying whe he said 'don't tell Jacq', he knows I read the log, just like he does.
2:19 am
helenary

I HATE to interrupt you all chatting happily but is there 2 en7/40's. I have one which is the "ask about" but what could the other be?? I have the en7/48. Clue please??
2:20 am
speedfreak sam

lottijw actually 4 workers were very injured
2:20 am
Griffums

hey sam
2:21 am
GreyWoulf

luvmypom - I definitely do not have the patience that is necessary for that type of competition -- and to have to be dependent upon safe transport to boot, I would have an ulcer inside of 6 months
2:21 am
Griffums

helenary, I don't know but you just gave me my first word...
2:22 am
helenary

I knew I was good for something Griff!!
2:22 am
Jacula

4 major casualties, it seems. Would have been far more had it not been 6 on a Sunday morning. Not that that helps those workers, I know. And accident though, it seems, not any act of terrorism.
2:22 am
luvmypom

Well gang, going to call it a night. the alarm goes off in 4 1/2 hrs. *yawn* I think you all are bad influences on me! lol Although I was warned -- Babbleland is addictive. :)
2:23 am
GreyWoulf

helen -- sorry -- there are only 2 en7's -- one 40, one 48 -- c-nan misread teh screen when she posted earlier -- she corrected herself a little later
2:23 am
lottijw

I should imagine they are in good hands Sam. It`s a good job it was Sunday is what I keep thinking!! Far less people about. Miyavi just lives 2miles away from it and the blast blew her bedroom door down the landing!!!
2:23 am
Griffums

Awwwwwwwww! that sounded piteous! :)
2:24 am
speedfreak sam

woow!

2:29 am
lshult

hi everone.
Made the mistake yesterday of starting a grid | didn't have time to finish. Ruined my stats (not that they are that good anyway).
Today may be smaller, but seems to be a toughie!
2:30 am
lottijw

Hi Ishult :) Yeah, i`m not getting far fast!!

Wolfie - go to bed and to K!
2:37 am
Jacula

Ishult - didn't even think to check my stats for yesterday! Will do though, ocne I've made some toast. (The virtual toast doesn't work!)
2:39 am
lshult

Starting to get realy P***ed with this grid.
Only found 51 words and I'm stuck, just going round and round finding words I've already got!!!!!
2:44 am
lshult

Can't even count. only found 46 words so far!!
2:46 am
Jacula

got my toast now. let's calm down and look at the grid again...
2:54 am
Jacula

48 words here, ishult. About even, eh?
2:56 am
Jacula

John Lennon's 'Imagine' in my headphones now.
2:57 am
Jacula

'you may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one...'
3:01 am
Jacula

49 - words....
'but we all shine on, like the moon and the stars and the sun...' (On to Instan Karma now - which should probably be The Babblers' theme song!)
3:03 am
Dianne

Hi Everyone - nice to see I'm not alone in finding this grid a wee bit difficult. Can't find anything on the other two 7 letter words.
3:07 am
Jacula

Edited lyrics....

Instant karma’s gonna get you
Gonna knock you off your feet
Better recognize your brothers
Ev’ryone you meet
Why in the world are we here
Surely not to live in pain and fear
Why on earth are you there
When you’re ev’rywhere
Come and get your share

Well we all shine on...
3:07 am
Jacula

Well that got far more edited than I intended!
3:11 am
Miyavi_fan

Oh no. One of those shorty ones again today :/

*sigh* and how's that for a Monday morning greeting?
Hi everyone! :) *waving madly*

3:11 am
Jacula

Yes, I know my new icon's George and not John. But G was a cousin of mine, and looked so like my Dad. The sentiments are the same whether John or George's pic is showing. RIP to both.xx
3:13 am
Jacula

Hiya Miyavi. When does school finish and are you kay after our bedroom door blowing off (as I heard it) during explosion??
3:13 am
Miyavi_fan

Cool Jac! We should have a day on babble with musician icons, where we all put up our favourites. Not that I'd have to change or anything ^_^
3:14 am
Jacula

*okay, *your door. Sorry! V. tired!
3:14 am
Miyavi_fan

Hey Jac! Yeah, I'm fine thanks...just a bit miffed by such a rude awakening on a Sunday morning :) How are you?
3:14 am
Miyavi_fan

Our bedroom door?! ooer missus
3:16 am
Jacula

LOL, Miyavi. I'm surprised you know that joke at your age though!
3:16 am
Miyavi_fan

*giggling like a loon on loon tablets* I go to school, that's how I know it ^_^
3:17 am
Jacula

They can't possibly still do FH jokes in schools, surely?
3:18 am
Miyavi_fan

*whispers to nobody* what does FH stand for? :/ sorry...ignorance of youth, obviously :D
3:20 am
Jacula

Ah, so you know the punch line but not who's joke it was? It started with a Kenneth in the 'Carry Ons' and then was taken up by a Frankie.
3:20 am
Jacula

*whose joke.
3:21 am
Miyavi_fan

oooh, right...I think I just inherited the 'ooer missus' from my mum, who probably got it from there!
3:22 am
Jacula

Oh right! Anyway, when does scholl finish? 22nd or later?
3:22 am
Jacula

*school.
3:23 am
Miyavi_fan

3:24 am
Jacula

Sorry, Miyavi. V. tired. Got 50 words for now on grid but will probabl leave rest until later. How are you doing with grid?
3:25 am

3:45 am
kikic93

3:46 am

Our school closes on Friday.I`ve worked some hours in advance so I`m not needed now.I prefer to work in class rarher than practice for concerts or go to school parties etc as my hours are so limited.It`s not that I`m antisocial I just think I should be useful.

Trotters, read the note from swmbo. Looks like someone else did too. Balance was U$10, I put in $20, by the time I finished messing with paypal, someone else contibuted U$221 which takes care of an entire year of subscription. Byt the time I got back out the war chest was up to $281, all from anonymous contribs. Hope everyone here goes Pro too.....

Actually, after some digging, both or4's have to do with heraldry. The second one is a type of field. Wikipedia says 'an ermine charge cannot be placed on an or4/4 field'.

sherb, don't get too carried away - may be 106 words but......watch out!
11:39 am

i have the re6 for the one that is one who re4's; any help on the other?
11:40 am

In fact, the second or4/4 is a golden metal. And I wrongly attributed it to Wikipedia, instead it's from septempontia.org which uses a wiki to organize it's data.
11:41 am

hi FMitch :) I knew as soon as I wrote the words that I was tempting fate, lol :D

It would be except it's -12C outside (+18F). Or course, that measn no grass to cut, walk to sweep, or pool to clean. Instead I get to sit out at my father-in-laws's U'Cut christmas tree farm to keep an eye on the old coot.

11:53 am

I think I'd rather be at work...

hi Miyavi :) what did you do with yourself today?
11:54 am
Miyavi_fan

Christmas shopping...got waylaid by a madly smiling woman trying to teach me about spiritual happiness for "a small price"

Never been so scared in my life. What did you get up to?
11:54 am

11:56 am
Schroeder

You are Miyavi :)
Good day at school for you
11:59 am
Miyavi_fan

Sherb, and did you find spiritual fulfillment whilst doing that? lol :)

Schroeder, no school today! Or tomorrow ^_^ The oil depot exploded two miles away from where I am (blowing my door off :/ ) so we can't go to school because of the noxious fumes outside.
11:59 am
Miyavi_fan

...So of course, all the students were ignoring the carcogenic fumes warnings and were uptown...
12:00 pm
Schroeder

How scary Miyavi, I didn't know it was so close to you, I'm glad to see you are staying safe indoors.
12:01 pm
sherb

MIyavi - thankfully, I don't seek spiritual fulfilment at work...I'm happy just to do my job, enjoy the company of my colleagues...and get paid for it...

Is it still very smoky where you are, or is it clearing>
12:02 pm
Miyavi_fan

Thanks Schroeder :) I love your icon by the way, that's so original! I need to change mine for the theme...

Sherb, it's clearing now and heading South...we can see the flames from where we are :/
12:05 pm

Sorry, Easternblue to take so long to reply - my icon is wheaten bread, an Irish speciality.

12:29 pm
harpjane

We used to pass a fruitcake around our family for years. The pigs wouldn't eat it, so we used it as a doorstop.
12:31 pm
harpjane

Now that I have the ha 5/16, I realize that someone used a word in the log earlier, talking about H Potter.... hee hee hee!

My stove is on the fritz. I can't even bake a muffin until the new one is delivered on the 28th. All the food pictures are making me depressed. On the other hand, I don't have to do ANY Christmas baking, and I'll be taking jello to the potlucks....so I get off easy!

I have a roast beef in the oven. Just remembered I had found a site with sauerbraten sauce. Off to get the ingredients. Too lazy to do sauerbraten the proper way (5 day marinade).....
Been too long since I had sauerbraten........
12:41 pm

Brandy!!! but its worth the effort and wait
12:41 pm

You made it back safely Miyavi! did you get your ir**ing done?
12:41 pm

But my refridgerator is too small to have something that big that long...........
12:43 pm
Miyavi_fan

Ooh, didn't see that one in there...:) Yup, big pile up of clothes waiting to be transported to my bedroom :) Thought I was gonna have to call for back-up when a bedsheet went mad, but it was all okay :)
12:45 pm

Hi babble people!!!! How is everyone! I miss playing soooooooo much!!! Thought I'd pop in and say hi - besides I saw today was "bread day" and I found the perfect icon.......
BrandyJack - saw your post on the sauerbraten - I have made that before for an "untraditional" Christmas Day dinner for family - with gingersnap gravy and homemade potato pancakes .... mmmmmmmmm.....
12:49 pm

12:51 pm

Mama, getting a break from school now! Since the explosion, school's been off thanks to the noxious fumes hovering above St Albans. The blast blew my bedroom door off!
12:52 pm

Mama, didn't you hear? An oil depot in hemel blew up on sunday morning, roundabout 6.
12:53 pm
mamabear

*mamabear staggers backwards as she catches EasternBlue in mid air* I've missed you too!!!!
12:53 pm
harpjane

Myi--surely you have something better to do than iron, on a school closing day. Although I imagine you are all sort of in shock still.
12:54 pm
GreyWoulf

harp -- that couldn't be any more ea4/6 that falling off a log!

MAMA!!!!! (*HUG*)
12:55 pm
mamabear

No, I didn't hear, Miayvi.... how awful!!!! But I'm glad you are ok..... if your bedroom door blew off, it must have been way too close to you.... how scary!!
12:55 pm
Miyavi_fan

Oh no, not really in shock. We didn't know the school was closing until last night, though, so I didn't get time to get anything organised. So I just went Xmas shopping instead ^_^
12:55 pm

Thank you GW, guess I'm not too sharp today!
12:56 pm

GW!!!!!!! *mamabear runs over and tackles GW hugging him senseless*
12:56 pm

12:59 pm

gw are you still here or come back ??
1:01 pm
brandyjack

Mama, I've given up on patato pancakes. Love them, but just can't learn to cook them. I wind up with a pan full of mashed potatoes or something resembling hash brown bits every time. The sauerbraten sauce I found is for a meatball hors d'oeuvres. Might work. Might be just tempting enough to get me off my lazy butt and do it right sometime.
1:01 pm
Miyavi_fan

You have snow?! Lucky lucky lucky...we have looming smokey clouds that stink of oil :/
1:01 pm
GreyWoulf

Blaze - I came back -- I've only been here for about an hour -- had to be quiet due to baby distracting me
1:01 pm
harpjane

myavi, where exactly is Hemel? Is it in the industrial port area near London?
1:03 pm
Miyavi_fan

I, um, wish I knew. Not that great with the local geography. The best I've ever done is direct some tourists to the local Sainsbury's :/ But it must be, though, I guess...pretty near London, anyway. Two miles away from St Albans
1:03 pm
Blaze

mama you are the bear hands down I give up the bready bear...... LOL
Brandy --- if you move the fry pan as you put the potatoe mix in the pan it is less likely to stick much.... but I agree it is a lot of work for those delious things...
1:05 pm
GreyWoulf

brandyjack -- I have the same prob with potato pancakes -- but I'm working on it!
Usually if I don't get what I want, I toss in some scrambled eggs and mixed veg and turn it into a stovetop scramble :)

Hi guys :)

Lola you just used a word in the log!
1:12 pm

EB -- it's a tiny one, bec the snow was really too powdery except where the sun had melted it a bit -- but that made it just her size ;D
1:12 pm
Miyavi_fan

I'm great thanks! How are you?
1:12 pm
mamabear

We got about 8 inches of snow last Thursday.. And about 2 more over the weekend. GW - the concert was wonderful, but exhausting!!! I am touched that you remembered!!! *wink*
Brandyjack - my recipe for Sauerbraten only calls for a 24 hour marinade... and the potato pancake recipe starts with grating fresh potatoes.... and the gravy is wish crushed gingersnap cookies..... alot of work. but definitely worth it for this German girl!
1:12 pm

1:26 pm

oh no, Blaze -- an old Italian folk remedy that usually works for me when I feel a cold coming on is to eat a clove of raw garlic with a shot of lemon juice --

Breath is bad for a bit, but it works ;)
1:28 pm
Blaze

it keeps the sick people away from you for sure.... I think my sneezing is the dust that is blowing around in here this morning... some one should do something about that....ROFLOL
1:30 pm

Garlic is the best! It definitely helps a cold. Mix it with a little honey and eat it raw.

Has anyone seen baggo since she started her new job?
2:16 pm
Karys

got close and closer
2:16 pm
Anj

no4/4 - old Babblefave - Porphyra or red algae prep.

Sounds like an apology with an N not an S

- add an A to the end for an no5
- swap the A for an S to plural the no4/4
2:16 pm
joey

thanks, Anj, just looking for the last two 5's now.

Karys

2:26 pm
joey

Thanks, Karys

P - one is pr with a double vowel, the other one looks to me like it would sound like a part of a boat, pr, first vowel, circle vowel.
2:26 pm
lola100

karys, they are both pr4/5 and they both end in two vowels :)
2:27 pm
Anj

Karys, how about more slim?

Karys

ooo...ni nite Miya xx
3:16 pm
Anj

Lo, she's good. One of the rockier singer/songwriters that I listen to. Probably more commercial than Liz Phair and not as country as Mel Etheridge, although her new band leans in that direction.
3:18 pm
lola100

She reminds me a bit of kt tunstall...am I on the right track? Worth downloading then?
3:18 pm
Mubner

They aren't just now. Ginger is releasing a solo album called Valor Del Carzon on the 19th and is playing London as a one-off on Friday 27th January. That's it for a while although i'm on their mailing list so I will know when they do decide to hit the road again.

Bye bbnaz, drive careful..
3:37 pm
Minski

Hi. I asked this earlier but baby needed attention and then household stuff called and I'm just getting back to it. Instead of hunting through the posts I'm going to ask again......


I am only missing one TY word. I have: the one with no definition that ends in a double vowel, the British spelling of the thing that your car has 4 of, and a beginner in learning something. Please help. Thanks.
3:38 pm
Karys

respell the wheel one
3:38 pm
lola100

Sounds good babe, you're going to have to take me to see him some time. Another question... have you ever seen the Stones?
3:38 pm
Minski

Thanks Karys. I swear I tried that one hours ago, but I must be having flashbacks to another grid.
3:39 pm
Miyavi_fan

Okay, couldn't stay away. Door is back on, Kasumi translation is finished...now I have to deal with English words :/

Welcome back Miyavi!
3:40 pm
Anj

Lo, no I haven't. I have this thing about paying large amounts of money to see ants in the distance...
3:41 pm
Miyavi_fan

Oooh, Glay! Glay were talent spotted by the same person as Dir en Grey, that's enough to make me like them :)
3:41 pm
Miyavi_fan

Karys...no comment :D
Thanks Schroeder! :)
3:42 pm
Schroeder

Lola, I saw the Stones 3 times in the past when tickets were priced reasonable
3:46 pm

how's the puzzle today?
3:48 pm
Anj

Nava, puzzling ; )

Miya, they're a bit more commercial if you ask me
3:49 pm
nava

i worked on it for a little bit last night and got 36 words. so today i have to buckle down. there just aren't a ton jumping out at me today.
3:49 pm
Anj

Schroeder, it's not the price I object to, it's the size of the venue. If I can't see the whites of their eyes unaided i'm not interested.
3:49 pm
Miyavi_fan

A lot more commercial...they care about what people think too much :) Dir en Grey...care too little
3:50 pm
joey

can't find the last ar 5 - can anyone help?

thanks
3:51 pm
Anj

Miya, that's known as artistic integrity. Do what you want, not what they want. It's the conflict reactor that powers the music industry really...

Anj

Peri, the ar6 is a record label that counts Manly Barrilow, Aretha Franklin and the Eurythmics among its roster.
Add an E for the 7
3:54 pm
Schroeder

I agree with you Anj,
But I also have a problem paying that much money for a band I have seen in the past for way less. I must confess to spending quite a bit for my husband to see Fleetwood Mac a few years back
3:54 pm
Miyavi_fan

Exactly Anj! And God save the queen.

...the timing just felt right :/


3:57 pm
periwinkle

Anj, thanks found ar6 and 7. Knew the label but not sure how to spell it. Checked with Google :)
3:57 pm
Miyavi_fan

gah! just reading over the lyrics I did and I'm so, so glad I didn't have to translate from Kanji to romanisation...I can just think of the mess I'd make of yominekashitsuki!
3:58 pm
Anj

Schroeder, exactly. All the bands i've seen this year have come in at under $20 a ticket. If I want to see the big names I just do the festivals and take my pic of the acts on offer. The only band i've seen do BIG shows is Rush.
3:58 pm

oh for goodness sake...yomineka$hitsuki

4:00 pm
Miyavi_fan

Careful Anj, that could be a dangerous thing for me :)

As it is, you've got freedom fighters in my head..."freedom of speech! freedom of thought! That freedom over there is ignoring us completely..."

All is well here. I was a tad worried about our friends across the pond but have read that all is well. It seems the largest problem was the loss of Miy's bedroom door.

I am planning a combination Chanukah and December Birthdays Family Party for this Sunday. I finally have an almost complete headcount. You would think family would be more responsible about RSVPing. (insert rolling eyes smilie here).
4:14 pm
Anj

Fine thanks sandr. Hope you have a nice time over Xmas :)

help - I have been reading the clues for the si's and I am lost. I still need the si 6/21, and one of the si5/10. I have the one where it is one less consonent in the middle of one of the other si 6's, can't get the other.....
6:53 pm
Haz1558

The si 6/21 is an old fashioned word used to address gentlemen. It sounds as though it ends in a vowel, but has a silent consonant on the end.
6:54 pm
brandyjack

Both or4's have to do with Heraldry. The first is the border around the blazon, the 2nd is the gold metal background when used for a field. Olde english. First one sounds like Paris airport, 2nd one sounds like a cheer........ As in hip, hip, or**
6:54 pm
Haz1558

The si 5/10 is the same word as the 6/21 minus the last consonant.
6:58 pm

I'm down to my last word...should I ask for a clue or keep monkey typing? Do most people try to find their last word without help?
10:11 pm
scatty

beebee, what kind of things do you have on your land, i used to have sheep, bullocks, well calves until they were fat enough, they are more fun when they are small, the female calves have to go out to pasture and were always breaking out to my dad stuck with bullocks after that, we also grew corn and had apple orchards
10:11 pm
pinecone05

okay...I give up. Can I have a clue for the last re please?
10:13 pm
beebee

scatty-
we are an ag. farm- corn, wheat, soybeans- my husband refuses to have cattle again
10:14 pm
beebee

pine- to run again- make run past tense
10:14 pm
scatty

the last re is a very close spelling to a tall lanky bird that pinches fish out of ponds, just change the last vowel to the first vowel, hope that makes sense
10:15 pm
pinecone05

thank you Bee Bee and Scatty....I finished! Whew.

beebee, what put him off cattle i was married at 19 and moved away from the farm, i still miss it 25 yrs later, if i had the land i would have a few sheep, the trouble i would have was getting rid of the males, i'd want to keep all of them, the year i left school, i took one of my sock lambs back to school for a visit, freckles was so well behaved, i didn't need to put a lead on her, mind you she did widdle in one of the classrooms

I have a question, I am new to this and just upgraded. I have the little stats board, but where does it say (for example) re 4/4?
10:19 pm
pinecone05

the words starts with re it is 4 letters long and worth 4 points...all the tiles have points associated with them
10:19 pm
renfield

way to go pine - !!!!!!!
10:20 pm
amills

right, but it just shows the first letter, how do I know what the second letter is? and how long it is?
10:21 pm
scatty

re is the first two letters of the word you are looking for, the first 4 means there are four letters in the word, and the second 4 means that if you add up the numbers on the letters on the grid, they will add up to 4
10:21 pm
pinecone05

ty renfield -- l really liked all the !
10:21 pm
pinecone05

in the friends of babble section there is babblers anon...this board has the list of second letters under the general category
10:21 pm
beebee

scatty- sounds lovely, i want livestock- but he's not interested- so, i just bring things home as i see fit. we went to the mountains and i saw these long hair cows, can't remember the name- i think they come from ireland(?) not sure- i really want one for a pet, but they said it was too hot here- maybe the were called a belted someting i don't know and sure don't know how to spell it, but they were beautiful
10:22 pm
amills

ok, but how do I get that list?
10:23 pm
pinecone05

if yo go to babblers anon, right click, and ask for another window to come uo, general, left click on that and stat puzzle will come up, scroll down and you will have all the stats, if you keep scrolling you will get to two letter stats, when you first start, it tends to make it easy, but after a while you wont need it as much
