Poor spaniel! Imagine having a coat on in this weather.

I keep typing 'tash' every time it appears in the hope that one day the Enable dictionary will catch up with common usage...
2:56 am
Atalante

one very hot dog! she'd been chasing pheasants for an hour ....
2:57 am
Haz1558

In the same spirit Douglas, there would have been one of these if Shrek had died when on one of those.
2:57 am
Douglas

How do you define "tash?"
2:57 am
sherb

tash = short for moustache
2:58 am

3:08 am
sherb

God save our gracious Queen!
Long live our noble Queen!
God save the Queen!
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us,
God save the Queen.

An additional verse is occasionally sung:
Thy choicest gifts in store
On her be pleased to pour,
Long may she reign.
May she defend our laws,
And give us ever cause,
To sing with heart and voice,
God save the Queen.

Hihihi, Ata, sorry, couldn't resist :)
3:09 am
Atalante

it was SO hot. we actually left at the interval, just too hot and sticky. We only wanted to be there for Peter Maxwell-Davies's piece anyway. It was a wonderful evening though!
3:10 am
Haz1558

And what did you think of the piece? I was expecting something jollier.
3:12 am
Atalante

well, I knew what it would be like. I don't know how much was explained on TV, but it was meant to represent the Queen (choir) providing a base of stability and light in changing and strange times (orchestra). I was actually expecting something *weirder* LOL. Some of his works are pretty bizarre!
3:13 am
Haz1558

It must have been 'challenging' to sing.

3:15 am
Atalante

I felt sorry for the guardsmen who were doing the fanfares in their buzbies. talk about HOT! the choirs were actually really good ... I don't think I would ahve liked the piece if I hadn't known why it sounded like it did, but knowing that discord and glumness was there for a reason, I ended up really liking it
3:15 am

Nag away but it's lost on me as I don't have it yet.
3:20 am
Atalante

which ga5/14 sprite?
3:20 am
saphyre

don't have it yet either
3:20 am
Haz1558

I'm frantically searching for it so that I can join in the discussion and look intelligent.
3:21 am
sprite

Looks like a plural or a 3rd person singular, but there is no singular or 1st person singular for it. I kept looking for that last G and never thought to try the 5, since the 4 wasn't valid :(
3:21 am
saphyre

lol haz
3:21 am
sprite

The first one, Ata.
3:21 am
Haz1558

It's because the singular is a three letter word.
3:21 am
sprite

Comes before the nasty wound.
3:21 am
Atalante

what Haz said then :)
3:22 am
sprite

Aha! Haz, that is more th4 intelligent. In dutch it would need a double consonant in the middle, but not in english. I will never learn!
3:22 am
Haz1558

Although 'normal' English spelling would put a double s in the plural.
3:22 am
saphyre

in english also if it is the one i think it is
3:23 am

LOL! Okay, thanks a lot, I feel a bit less stupid now :)

3:25 am
Angb

Can I ask a dim question? I thought I would try using Lickety's wonderful page tonite. But, I don't have to retype everything into the Babble page do I?
3:26 am
saphyre

yes Angb
3:26 am
Haz1558

Angb - you will have to type the words into babble, as the two pages are not connected.
3:27 am
sprite

Okay, I have a dumb question. What do you call an exit from the highway? Is that junction, or do you use th4 only for non-highways?
3:27 am
Angb

Ok - thank goodness I didn't get too carried away!!!LOL
3:27 am
saphyre

exit ramp
3:28 am

Thanks. So when giving directions, one could say: you take exit ramp 304... ?
3:28 am
saphyre

or just exit 304
3:28 am
Haz1558

sprite - in Britain, do you mean? In Britain it would be a junction or an exit.
3:29 am

we call them junctions in the UK... eg Junction 1 on the M1...
3:29 am

Great, thanks a lot :) Friends from America are staying in Holland and come to visit today, they need a route!

FranMag

4:35 am
herinfernallady

Rolin a good teacher is someone that listens to the student, doesn't take poo of said students and respects, that even though the teacher may not like a certain author should respect the student does and teach them the same as anyone else unlike my lit teacher which didn't like my pick of 3 authors and refused to teach me, so i left
4:35 am
sydnie

yes unfotunatly
4:35 am
herinfernallady

fran your safe from ts 's today

4:35 am
rolin

lmao....i love it...
4:37 am
rolin

lady...so youre basing your ideas of teachers and teaching around one person??and how s/he rubbed you up the wrong way?
4:37 am
Atalante

my English teacher hates Evelyn Waugh therefore she's a CRAP TEACHER FROM HELL! it works that way, rolin ;)
4:37 am
herinfernallady

No rolin that was a crap example sorry. what i mean sometimes words are dodge
4:37 am
rolin

lady/.i wasnt laughing at you btw..i was reacting to sydnies summation of reaction to my bad moods..
4:37 am
sydnie

yes but dont you think students will learn more if there teachers are really cool and do fun things in lessons like mr williams mrs douglas and all pe teachers and even rolin
4:38 am
rolin

yeah sydnie for a while...but at some stage everyone h things that have to be done that are NOT fun..they are just hard work..as to come to terms that there are
4:38 am
mattygroves

LOL! I had an English teacher who loved Sylvia Plath (this was in University), and I wrote a paper absolutely slating her - saying that if she were around today, she'd be on Springer pouring her woes out to anyone who would listen. I got a 2:1 on that paper.
4:38 am
rolin

my keyboard rearranged that...sorry
4:40 am
rolin

i had a uni lecturer who refused to understand that history taught thru literature was still history...NOT a literature course... i still passed the course with flying colours...but he got his revenge..refused me a reference ....the....(chn present)
4:41 am
sydnie

still all of the students i know regret ever seein teachers that are really strickt like mr ferginson mr alco and teachers that hate me
4:41 am
herinfernallady

no the teacher was a bad teacher because she was given texts to teach us and she didn't like Adrienne Rich (as she Rich is a lesbian, i believe) therefor everybody had to ignore that text and write an essay on robert lowe despite us been given 3 texts to choose. This teacher flat out refused to even explain how the basis of the essay was written, does that make sense rolin?
4:41 am
mattygroves

How many teachers hate you? How old are you?
4:43 am
herinfernallady

I also class bad teachers as teachers that refuse to teach non popular students, I used to love most of my teachers, I had one science teacher that was so patient he got me from a borderline fail to a b, he was amazing
4:43 am
rolin

sydnie....theres a net ettiquette here...you dont dis real ppl using real names..ok?...we can have this conversation in pvt... but you dont know who the others on this site are...and you dont know if they will rocognise who youre talking about...

Rolin, I had a music teacher when I was 13 who only taught 2/3 of the class, and dumped the other third who were average into another room, then never actually taught them anything (I was in that 1/3). It took a group complaint to get her to teach us.
4:46 am
mattygroves

Syd, can you think of any reason why these teachers hate you? I have a daughter goint into year 11 (AKKK!)...my daughter has had one or two teachers she didn't much care for, but nothing like 15 teachers - there must be some background to this. And I doubt they hate you. They may have disliked your behaviour, but never you.
4:47 am
mattygroves

Ronin - are you a teacher?
4:47 am

bye saphyre!

true rolin this was one teacher out of i don't know how many, there was about 1000 students in my school and quiet a few of them were horrors.
4:48 am
saphyre

bye fran :)
4:48 am
rolin

jen...i have no idea what the background to such a class arrangement was..
4:48 am
sydnie

yeah my behaviour but that was the beeginin of the year and i have changede but teachers dont give you another chance
4:48 am
rolin

yes matty...i was sydnie's (both of them..lol) teacher last year
4:48 am
herinfernallady

rolin this teacher developed my love of photography, the horrors where the students.
4:49 am
herinfernallady

sydnie do your work, prove yourself that you are worthy and don't take the bait
4:49 am
Jencatd

It was three groups. Students who knew nothing about music or reading music; students who knew how to read music but has little skills beyond that; and the last was students who were good at music.
4:49 am
mattygroves

That must have been fun, rolin! Are you a form or subject teacher?
4:49 am

sydnie

i will never be forgettin you rollin never evr
4:50 am
Angb

Often teachers seem to dislike you, to challenge you to do better. Often it is better to wonder why and ask why so that you can learn. School is about preparing you for real life. LOL
4:50 am
rolin

lady...no offence taken..honestly..*s*...im a teacher...i have a tough hide..lol
4:52 am
sydnie

yeah all teachers have to have a rough sid e or they wont be able to be a teacher
4:52 am
rolin

oooh theres a whole social treatise about the attitude to education and the training of personal responsible for leaning that this log cant afford
4:53 am
Angb

You're so right rolin
4:53 am
herinfernallady

thats cool rolin as i know how much crap teachers get and how much crap parents let their kids get up to and not take responsiblity. I say you for the teachers they should get paid more.
4:53 am
rolin

and i am loathe to say it.. attitude to education is different here as compared to aus
4:54 am
Angb

OK, I've got stuck. Just can't see the se 6/27. Any clues going?
4:54 am

herinfernallady

sydnie home life for some kids is really hard, one of the schools my friends went to the teachers stayed till 6 or 7 at night so kids can get breaks, as for poo home life speaking to teachers, doctors or school counselors can help
4:57 am
rolin

jen..i have this belief that...because schooling is indeed free in this country...it has no value...if it doesnt cost..it has not worth
4:58 am
Jencatd

education is supposed to be free here until you're 19, but the "voluntary" fees are becoming less and less voluntary, since schools aren't getting enough funding at all levels. >_<
4:58 am
sydnie

oh cool i think lots of students have spreded rumers about two teachers young ones
4:58 am
rolin

sydnie....enough
4:59 am
sydnie

ok i weren gunner say anythin after all i am only a typical twelve year old
4:59 am
herinfernallady

jen my old high school made you buy a computor as it was compulsory then made you pay funds so my parents bought the computer then went no fees
4:59 am
rolin

jen...yeah..i know..but the ironic upside to that is...if parents have to pay...they seem to be more prepared to ensure they 'get there moneys worth'
5:00 am
herinfernallady

sydnie nasty rumors about teachers is not cool, some teachers have done nothing wrong and had their whole lives ruined

hi unea-I've got lilites, lots of roses, mounds andmounds of bee balm, the tomatoes will ripen in about a week, there are increidbly cute baby melons, and the strangest yellow/zucchini squash mutants I've ever seen-planted two species close to each other. The zucchini was clearly dominant, as they are fine, but the yellow crook necks are doing all kinds of remarkable things-yellow and green strips, neon yellow green, oddly shaped. Haven't cooked them yet but will probably taste just fine. Oh, and now that you mention it, lots of echinachea

yes-we're zone 4....very short growing season. Our problem was that for June it rained pretty much every day. The flowers loved it, but not the veggies.

unuea-with the house we inherited fall blooming crocuses, which completely baffled me the first year. They send up large tulipy kinds of leaves in the spring, you keep expecting something else to happen, and then it all dies away. The nothing, absolutely nothing, until the fall, when beautiful purple flowers apear, much bigger than regular crocuses.

read an article a few days ago about how bad it is for ones pets to be overweight and how owners of the round persuasion are more likely to have rotund pets. Seems true in our case. Althoiugh I really and truly don't overfeed him-he gets less than recommended, but is an indoor cat and also middle aged-and just seems prone to gaining weight. Ata-those breeds prettymuch always are long and thing and sleek.
8:35 am

I know Eva ... but she really was *scrawny*! She was 3lb at a year old - she's now gained 2lbs in the last few months woohoo and looks sleek and gorgeous!

The eldest daughter had been 15 when her father left home. She was the eldest child -- and so much of the responsibility of caring for the others fell to her.

9:44 pm
stidmama

Her brother, just two years younger, would walk the cow and her calf out to the pasture at the edge of the village and leave them with the village cowherd.
9:45 pm
stidmama

Her next eldest sister would gather the eggs from the henhouse and check the pigs' water.
9:45 pm
stidmama

By the time they got back to the kitchen, their mother had breakfast well started, with steaming hot cups of tea ready for their chilly fingers.
9:46 pm

As soon as they had finished their breakfast, the brother and his younger sister would go wash up and get dressed for school, while the eldest sister helped the three middle sisters get up and get dressed.
9:47 pm
stidmatt

Hi Mom, HI HETTY!!!
9:47 pm
stidmama

The mother by this time, was making sure the youngest two were clean and comfortable, and soon sat in the rocking chair by the kitchen stove to nurse the baby.

As the eldest brother and his sister walked off to school, they picked up the basket of knitting and sewing their mother and sister had finished for the neighbors. They would deliver these during their lunch break.
9:49 pm

stidmama

The three middle sisters, full of energy, would wiggle as they ate, and tended to upset the jugs on the table, so the eldest sister patiently stood by, ready to help them serve and clean up. She also made sure her little brother had his bowl of gruel with a little bit of honey -- or, when they were ripe, fresh berries from the little patch next to the well.
9:51 pm
Playwoman

Oh, how cold I have missed that?!?! Thanks, Annie
9:51 pm
Anniebrook

yw, have some popcorn
9:51 pm
TheFiz

mmm, gruel
9:52 pm

And so, as the seasons came and went, the eldest sister learned about children, about managing the household, about making a home.
9:52 pm

9:54 pm
stidmama

In no time at all, it seemed, she had matured into a strong, intelligent, beautiful woman. Her brown hair and sober brown eyes leant her an air of dignity, even as her delicate figure and dancing feet and ready smile gave her grace.
9:54 pm
TheFiz

*hands lbd several paper towels*
9:54 pm
hetty

in fact she sounds a lot like Stidmama
9:55 pm
stidmama

She soon caught the eye of the son of a metalsmith, who had learned his trade well -- and they married and moved to a town that had need of his skill.
9:55 pm
lbdawger

*thanks again Fiz*
9:55 pm
stidmama

Meantime, the son grew into a tall, strong man, with skill in many areas, but a special talent for wood working and a love of story-telling.
9:56 pm
hetty

wonder where he got that from?
9:57 pm
stidmama

He was able to find an apprenticeship in the village on the other side of the mountain; and so with tears of pride in her eyes, his mother watched him begin his own journey through life.
9:58 pm
Playwoman

Only 4 to go! I'm really excited
9:58 pm
Playwoman

Good story stid
9:58 pm

Yay Playwoman! You can do it!
9:58 pm
stidmama

In these years, the next eldest daughter had developed a talent for needlework. As her sister and brother left home, she naturally began to help her mother around the house and garden, and soon became a fine cook.
9:58 pm
stidmama

thanks playwoman -- ask for clues anytime!

10:00 pm
hetty

in fact your stories, stid, are exactly as Tolstoy noted about happy families. Let's snuggle closer
10:00 pm
stidmama

The middle sisters were becoming good helpers, and when they were not in school they took care of the yard and the animals. All four of these girls were quite in demand around the village as helpers when mothers needed extra hands for canning or looking after the children when a new baby was born, and often helped younger children with schoolwork when they fell behind.
10:01 pm
hetty

I needed extra hands once myself
10:02 pm

hi all
10:03 pm
stidmama

Now the eldest girl who was still at home was the very image of her mother at the same age: fair skin with rosy cheeks, a smile hovered constantly around her lips and made her blue eyes twinkle; and her dusty blonde curls were always falling out of the ribbons she used to tie them back.
10:03 pm

Now, this merchant was quite a bit older than the girl, and had three children of his own, about the age of her younger sisters.
10:13 pm

He had been widowed suddenly when an epidemic swept through his town, and had hired a housekeeper who was very efficient and caring in her own way. But she was not the same as a mother to his children.

She, for her part, enjoyed the talk of the goings-on in the bigger town, and appreciated the pretty ribbons and gee-gaws the merchant sold on his trips through the village.

She dreamt of seeing the big houses, and the rumble of big wagons on wide cobbled streets.
10:15 pm

Her mother was not so sure...
10:16 pm

The housekeeper, a stern grandmotherly type, provided a splendid dinner their last evening there. And the merchant treated her with as much respect as he treated the mother of his intended bride.

The three things were: How to tell if an insult is intended (the person won't look you in the eye); whether an issue is worth fighting for (are you willing to spend the night in jail for it); and how to disable someone without actually hurting him.
