Have a look at Babblers Anonymous beneath the grid. Keep clicking general till you get a list of today's words - the start letter and number of letters in the word. And work from there! That's what I do, once I can't find any more by myself. Or look at Licketys Babble Clues. Link beneath grid.

night adam!

Haz1558

I know! We've been warned to have long sleeves and trousers etc. My only worry is that we have a very restricted luggage allowance on the internal flights, so I'm going to have to be ruthless and take the bare essentials. The balloon trip sounds wonderful, but opinion seems to be divided about it - too hight up and you see nothing, too low and the animals leg it.

Haz - unless it has to be pre-booked (the balloon trip) perhaps you can decide once there?
5:10 am
Jacula

Haz - I'm not v. good at travelling light so I sympathise about the luggage allowances!
5:11 am
FranMag

don't know if you can get in the UK, but Nike makes a material called dri-fit that wicks sweat away from your skin so you can have long sleeved things that will still keep you cool.

Haz1558

Somehow it's not the clothes that I worry about so much as toiletries etc. I'll have to find sample sizes of things. We'll see about the balloon trip when we're there. It's been fun watching 'Bit Cat Diary' as it gives a real flavour of what we'll see. If I spot Toto, the baby cheetah, I'll let you know.
5:13 am
Haz1558

BIg Cat diary - my typing is degenerating.
5:14 am
Atalante

just buy some small empty toiletries bottles, Haz and decant into them ...
5:14 am
Haz1558

Good morning pam, by the way.
5:14 am
pam

Haz--can you make sample sizes in containers of your own?
5:14 am
Atalante

and hi :)
5:14 am
FranMag

i was going to suggest the same thing atalante!
5:15 am
FMitch

Haz, I used to travel a lot, go to somewhere like Boots, or Superdrug, they sell small empty plastic bottles that you can decant your shampoo, moisturisers, cleansers etc into.
5:15 am
Haz1558

Yes, some of the chemists do little bottles for decanting, so I'll probably do that.
5:15 am
Atalante

Boots definitely do them
5:15 am
pam

I have also used small, resealable plastic bags as they take up less room
5:15 am
FMitch

Hi Atalante
LOL all great minds on the same thought!
5:16 am
Jacula

Haz - Superdrug also do those little empty travel bottles.
5:16 am
Haz1558

Yes, and being a dedicated Boots shopper, I have quite a few samples built up of products I use anyway. Sam's problem is going to be shoes. Any thoughts on reducing men's shoes?
5:16 am
Jacula

You need full-size suncream and after-sun though. And shower gel.
5:16 am
Haz1558

And insect repellent!
5:17 am

Haz - Paul wore his heavy shoes and only packed sandals and sandshoes.

Dorens, I don't understand the rankings either, and was always frustrated when I was watching them and had your situation. But I always assumed that it had to do with how many other people's rankings were going up. So if I finished a grid that "everyone" else finished, too, it might not be enough to hold up my relative score. But ultimately, who the heck knows!

10:31 am
ladynoire1013

I live in NC, in the southern US, and we're supposed to get to 100 or so today, which is pretty hot but not unusual
10:31 am

You can send those storms our way - we need the rain

ladynoire, want to hear something ridiculous? in the south east, we're having a drought....not cos it hasn't rained, but because the water companies won't repair pipes!!
10:33 am

10:37 am
TheFiz

We've had a local town refuse to pass a sewer repair bond for 6 years - this year the sewer pipes burst and dumped tons of raw sewage into the bay, forcing fishing bans and closing beaches - it's not just bureaucracy!

Calligraphy Art
10:45 am
Babbler

that's it
10:46 am
TheFiz

Interesting. I like 'em all but especially Name That Tree.
10:46 am
TheFiz

And speaking of naming the icon - Babbler, who's your picture? I can't place it and it's making me crazy
10:46 am
FMitch

LOL where do you get them from. Love the name that tree and Atalante will have a nervous breakdown for the Calligraphy art with all her wonderful work. Great stuff.
10:46 am
Babbler

all in favour say 'Aye'

TheFiz, it's Jilly Cooper : )

10:47 am
Dorens

babbler, has there ever been a theme of selfportraits (i.e., pictures of our own lovely faces?)
10:47 am
featherbee

10:48 am
Anj

...ni! : )
10:48 am
Babbler

no, Dorens... but I was around when someone did a South Park self portrait, so I added that to the list. if that counts?
10:48 am
Atalante

10:48 am
Atalante

can we have pre-raphaelites??
10:48 am

10:49 am
TheFiz

bye lady! enjoy your lunch.
10:49 am
Dorens

like that feather
10:50 am
Babbler

I'm pretty sure we've had architecture. But it was a while back so I can add that too.
10:50 am
TheFiz

Dorens - I'm fine with my face - it's the self portrait part that gets me. I'm artistic in other ways but not so much drawing - I wouldn't want you all to get the wrong idea, that I have 3 eyes or that my ears don't line up or something
10:50 am
featherbee

lol fiz
10:51 am
movieman

Babbler - howsabout a Lord of the Rings special?
10:51 am
Babbler

so shall I schedule a self-portrait day and still keep the South Park self portrait day?
10:51 am
Babbler

why not, Movieman! Lord of the Rings / Hobbit, so there's scope?
10:51 am
TheFiz

Pardon me for being dense but what is a South Park self portrait?
10:52 am
Dorens

actually, babbler, i'm not an artist..didn't mean selfportrait,meant photos of selves
10:52 am
Ping

hey, everyone - just checking out the puzzle for today
10:52 am
FMitch

Can we keep it as loose as a self portrait or a photo
10:52 am
movieman

TheFiz - it's a self-portrait done in the style of South Park.....
10:52 am
Babbler

hehee!! you haven't lived, TheFiz! It's this site where you can basically draw your own character, and add whatever you like.
10:52 am
featherbee

would the wizard of oz be too narrow a theme?
10:52 am

I think that's way beyond my skill set

Hello folks. Too hot here, at least upstairs, so can't sleep yet. I've been playing 'Boggle' Can anyone tell me how the 'Team' players manage to come top with, for instance, 118 words in 3 mins when most others, even fast thinkers and typists like me, get 39? Is there some kind of 'cheat program' they use or something?? If so, where's the fun in that?

Storms are expected here tomorrow night, Wolfie. As you know, I view those with trepidation... Not because I don't enjoy a good thunderstorm but because they cause flash floods which have flooded my house 4 times in the past.

9:14 pm
Cathyar

re5/12... a landlord often does it to the door locks when a tenant moves out
9:14 pm
Jacula

Cathyar - I think the last piece of news that shocked me so much was the story of a young girl here in UK, a child, who was run over and had her leg broken, bones sticking out etc., who crawled across the road as at least 8 or 9 cars steered around here (so their drivers wouldn't be late for work???)
9:15 pm
Cathyar

OMG Jac!!! That is soooo horrific!!!
9:15 pm
Jacula

The piece of news before that, about 4 years ago, was a picture of a dead baby dumped in a gutter in China. Everyone walked past and no one turned a hair except for the US and European reporters.

i think that has been typical for years in China Jac...many baby girls thrown into dumpsters...that is why so many americans and canadians travel so far and spend so much adopt chinese baby girls...so many are considered beneath newborn boys

9:19 pm
Jacula

Cathyar - that's what I understand, too. There is a saying in India that I was told by an Indian friend, 'Having a daughter is like watering your neighbour's tree'. In other words, re dowry etc., daughters only cost you money and don't bring you money.

9:21 pm
Jacula

FranMag - Yes, I read that story just before I went on holiday. Appalling! What's wrong with people these days? Has the milk of human kindness died?

9:22 pm

I was here for both invasions of rolin's brats. Last night (PDT time) one introduced itself by announcing "u stink".

Some returned this morning and were equally disruptive, but unfortunately rolin was not online.disruptive.

FirstChoice, Helen. Wasn't my choice and, given the experience, wouldn't be again. I mean, what kind of people try to serve you breakfast at 4.15am and sell you stuff and keep waking you up when they know you've been hanging around, not allowed to sleep, since 8 am or earlier?

jac - is that a british airline - i never heard of it?
10:09 pm
Jacula

They froze us first and then told us their limited supplu of blankets and pillows were for children only. Plus they wear a horrible pink uniform.
10:09 pm
jillibus

Poof, jac, I used to think so too. It was my son and his wife, who had given up, and their kids who talked me into it and I paid no attention. Then I had to go on a 5-hour flight to visit them, and smoking was banned on the plane. I couldn't face 5 hours smokeless, so used every crutch available to give it up. When I got there I found my son had taken it up again. But *halo expected* I persisted.
10:09 pm
Jacula

Helen - I'd never heard of it either. It wasn't me who booked the hol.
10:09 pm

their blankets and pillows were for children only????
10:10 pm

ugh - delta did that to me once with the blankets!! i wanted to kill!
10:10 pm

brb, poopy diaper alert!
10:11 pm

jillibus - re the smoking - this lot searched our bags for lighters and matches on the out flight! Outrageous!
10:11 pm
Jacula

No such thing was said on the home flight though.
10:11 pm
helenkeller

but delta ran out of them - also lost my luggage on that trip, plus we had unexpected lay-over in denver - i ended up with $300 in bonus coupons cause i raised such a stink when i got back here, lol
10:11 pm

Jacula, to keep you from being terrorists, or to keep you from lighting up in the wc?
10:12 pm

10:12 pm

10:12 pm
evanonut

to stop the next 9/11 --- sorry, but we haven't forgot that have we?
10:13 pm
nrkii

nut, not at all, just wasn't sure if the airline was grabbing lighters and matches for THAT, or to keep folks from smoking... given context of conversation
10:13 pm
Jacula

Not forgotten 9/11 at all. But the so-called security checks are so ... can't think of the word right now.... anyway.... they wouldn't stop a terrorist if he looked honest.
10:13 pm
nrkii

I've had the bag checkers seriously consider confiscating my tweezers...
10:13 pm
evanonut

remember what they held up the planes with last time, now warp your mind so that it thinks like a terrorist...what could you manage with a lighter if you were mcgyver
10:14 pm
Cathyar

wow...i have seen many high-ranking babblers in the quote puzzler games...you are right nrkii...it is fun!
10:14 pm

Thing is, re 'sharp objects' - you could make a sharp object of anything, your fingers included.
10:14 pm
helenkeller

jeez evan - how can we freakin forget - there's a movie coming out next month - world trade center -just saw the previews on tv - now to me - that's really poor taste!
10:14 pm
nrkii

now granted, I imagine a very skilled person like mcgyver could do a lot with tweezers, but with that much skill you could do a lot with LESS than tweezers
10:15 pm
nrkii

Jac, my point exactly....
10:15 pm
evanonut

jac - i spend my days rooting out bad guys, and lemme tell you, they are still there, and they're gonna keep trying.
10:15 pm
featherbee

i'm not thrilled about those movies...makes me uncomfortable for some reason
10:15 pm

If you really wanted to, you could make a weapon out of almost anything... a CD case for instance could be cracked and be sharp.
10:15 pm
Jacula

Where does it stop?
10:15 pm
evanonut

the tweezer thing i can see - as in harmless. but a lighter has massive potential.
10:16 pm
nrkii

nut, not disagreeing there...
10:16 pm

jac, remember the Shoe Bomber? Guess that's why no matches or lighters. Time magsays -- 30,000 - Average # of lighters the TSA confiscates DAILY (!) at airport checkpoints!
10:16 pm

evanonut, glad to have you keeping your eyes open, in all sincerity -- god speed
10:18 pm
godthaab

i'm one set of eyes in many.... In many what?
10:18 pm
Cathyar

it's everywhere nrkii...all around ... no real love and compassion in the world these days. the most important things in life seem to take backstage to the almighty dollar
10:19 pm
evanonut

many eyes of course!
10:19 pm
nrkii

oh cathy, I couldn't disagree with you more
10:19 pm

love and compassion IS all around, if you look
10:20 pm
evanonut

cathy, i'm sorry you're so set like that against the world
10:20 pm

wow, I don't claim there isn't bad in the world too, but to say there is "no real love and compassion" seems drastically far from reality -- I'm sorry if that is what you see
10:20 pm
Cathyar

yes.. so i'm told...if you look and give of yourself ...the old cliche...do unto others (blah blah)...tried that route...get stomped on always
10:20 pm

i believe if we put love & compassion on one side of the scale & greed on the other - the # of starving, war-displaced, needlessly sick people would bring those scales crashing down on all our heads

cathyar - that golden rule is supposed to apply to your rewards after this life.
10:21 pm

not set against the world...will never give in and become like those who ARE truly greedy...i just find people do not put themselves in others shoes enough...too busy with their own lives to notice.

Cathyar - I'm not like that, any many people I know are not either. I'm not sure how the scales would tip if 50 % of the world stood on one side and the same on the other. I tend to think the good would still weigh a bit more.
10:23 pm

love and compassion were very evident today when hetty was hostess (in spite of ill health) to stidmmama, her mama, stidmatt and his youger brother -- and me, on her birthday, when she had made her own chocolate birthday cake. Stid and family brought lunch and I was delighted to be included, even though they wouldn't use the champagne I brought (driving, y'know)

10:26 pm

that's what you were talking about earlier!
10:26 pm
Jacula

Someone (sorry, can't find the post now, it's moving so fast) said we'd been depressing in our discussions tonight... Sorry about that, it may have been me that continued it, in a way, after Cathyar saying about the chap hanging himself in a flea market and the market still going on until the coroner came 3 hours later to cut the poor guy down.

After our lovely day together here on the island--Stidmam and Stiddmatt and jilli and I--it's hard to join in the worrying about wrongdoing when like AnnFrank I believe people are basically good .
