3:39 am
bookwomen
mi+at 5/10 plural for 9, no relation to 7
3:42 am
Merk
mi ... I can't get to the at
3:43 am
Merk
mi + at 5 + pl is not 9 letters long, is it? I can't find it.
3:45 am
Haz1558
Use three letters in front of at5/10 indicating a negative
3:45 am
bookwomen
sorry forgot letter. mi*s+at 5/10
3:45 am
oggy
have you got another clue for ch8, still cant get it.

Merk
So where is the other 9 word anyway?
3:48 am
Merk
Oh, the hi that herin was asking help with. Did she ever get the word?
3:48 am
Haz1558
ch9 - extend the little note (ch4/6) with a vowel and a spanish saint
3:48 am
Merk
Is there a good clue for the hi 8 please? As long as I am thinking in terms of long words.
3:49 am
Haz1558
I'm looking for it now, Merk.

Frances
Haz I have only two 9 words hi9/66 and mi9/60!
3:49 am

3:50 am
Haz1558
hi8 is the singular of the hi9, Merk.
3:50 am
Haz1558
Good morning all, by the way.
3:51 am
Merk
But is there a clue for the hi 8??
3:51 am
Haz1558
Yes, hi8 - male personal pronoun (object) then the ending for st***** (being the place where trains depart from)
3:51 am
Frances
Haz shouldn't that be ch8?
3:52 am
Haz1558
Yes, Frances, you're right. My apologies.
3:53 am
Frances
Thought I was going mad for a minute!
3:53 am
Haz1558
I'm usually accurate with letters, numbers are less reliable.
3:54 am
Haz1558
You're welcome, Merk.
3:54 am
Merk
Now I have my hi 8 9 and ch 8
3:55 am
anike

3:57 am

Hello lynxxx.
4:04 am
Haz1558
Are you finding quite a few words that have occurred in the past couple of days? Or have the grids merged together in my mind?
4:05 am
lynxxx
no you are right...but I seem to find the same letters repeat for a few days anyway
4:05 am
Frances
Just what I was thinking Haz. Thought it could be something to do with the festive seasons!
4:06 am

Merk
A British can ... I think I know that, but I can't get to it yet.
4:10 am
Haz1558
It's a metal, Merk
4:10 am
Haz1558
Or think of the whole word as i plus a luxurious dress fabric
4:11 am
FranMag
hi again all!
4:11 am
FranMag

4:11 am
Haz1558

4:12 am
Haz1558
Yes, thanks Fran.
4:13 am
Merk
No, I'm looking for them now.
4:13 am
Merk
Are they connected to Haz's earlier clues for the is 6 and 7
4:13 am
Merk
clues please for the 8
4:13 am
FranMag
merk, just add a vowel at the end of the is6 for the is7 and then plural for the is8
4:13 am
Haz1558
Merk - just add a vowel to the dress fabric
4:14 am

9:02 am
kthdsn
I feel free and independent and bloody glad for it, I feel like all the things in my life that were causing me to feel crap have gone, I don't know how I didn't realise that before
9:03 am
smooth_pappa
good for you kate!
9:03 am
kthdsn
the last link is still the money though, I'm not sure how that's going to work out yet but I'm damned sure that somehow it will
9:05 am
KatieMcG
I am really having problems with the grid today, honestly much more of this and I take refuge in my work!!
9:06 am
Vicuna
Isn't that a little drastic, katie?
9:06 am
Buttonman
guys, i am still working on the first ch 4/4..anyone have it...it precedes the ch** pet?
9:07 am
hurshy
um, is it just me or is this a really hard one
9:07 am
Anniebrook
button, change the last vowel on the ch
9:07 am
Vicuna
cha4/6 - two other vowels (misspelling of Italian goodbye?)
9:07 am
hurshy
button - rhymes with italian hello
9:07 am
KatieMcG
I know vicuna, I've done well so far with regards to slacking but really am going to be forced back to it!
9:07 am
Anniebrook
ch ---state of utter ch***, leave off last letter
9:07 am
Vicuna
katie and I are not finding it easy!
9:07 am
hurshy
hello, goodbye, whatever
9:07 am
Buttonman
HURSHY, i don't know Italian
9:08 am
hurshy
so far i've greyed the left N, the W and the lower H
9:09 am
Vicuna
I've greyed the w, the upper H, and an I. But I'll have to quit soon to pay bills. (Okay, so I'm being a hypocrite, kattie!)
9:10 am
hurshy
lower h changes vowel in word from upper h
9:10 am
Vicuna
Yeah, just got the lower H. thanks!
9:10 am

anyone in the room who knows about dogs and chocolate? I know they are not to have it. Ours apparently ingested some last night, and I am finding several arf-barf spots! Will that take care of it or should I expect more symptoms???
9:10 am
smooth_pappa
hurshy... rhymes with arrivadercci? that's tough to do. ;)
9:10 am
Vicuna
The other two h's are hi8 and hi9, an ancient Greek article of clothing
9:11 am
Buttonman
Hurshy, help me out with this Italian word....ch4/4 PLEASE
9:11 am
hurshy
i took greek, but we didn't talk about the clothes
9:11 am
hurshy
will think
9:11 am
kalea
inge..........how big is your dog, and how much chocolate?
9:11 am
orionova
Button, it's CH+ two vowels.
9:11 am
hurshy
button, did you see annie's clue
9:12 am
Anniebrook
button, ch --state of utter ch***, leave off last letter
9:12 am
Vicuna
sort of rhymes with a film made of lots of drawn pictures...
9:12 am
inge
dog is 22 lbs and ate crumbs, up to one teaspoon perhaps
9:12 am
Vicuna
(That's the hi8 and 9, not the ch4!)
9:12 am
Charm
ci4/4 is the italian word, I think - It's c + 3 vowels, means hello or bye.
9:12 am
sparklygem
am missing a few 7s - ne7, the first po7 (I have 2 already) and sc7/36 - can anyone clue please?
9:12 am
hurshy
thanks vi - do you know, i almost tried that, just for monkeying, but thought, no, you can't just monkey so crazily
9:13 am
Anniebrook
working on the greek clothing
9:13 am
Vicuna
"It's so crazy... it just might work!"
9:13 am
kalea

9:14 am
inge
thanks Kalea
9:14 am
Haz1558
On the way out and saw your post, inge. No need to worry unless he ate vast quantities of cooking or dark chocolate.
9:15 am
Buttonman
OKEY maybe I am wrong, but I put the two ch 4/4 in the Lickety's list and the second ch4/4 is a ch** pet and the third ch is a word that rhymes with the Sh** word that means manure....there is a ch 4/4 before the ch*8 pet...according to the list
9:15 am
kalea
most welcome, inge...........lol, now i have to go finish making breakfast
9:15 am
hurshy
gem - the first po7 i have is a pl, you prob have, so i need one before that?
9:15 am
Buttonman
That one is driving me up a wall
9:16 am
hurshy
ne7 ne + cooking vessel + adj ending
9:16 am
Enomis65
anybody has the en 6?
9:16 am
Vicuna
You looking for pa7? mexican sugar, apparently, cooking vessil + Spanish for 8 with diff last vowel
9:16 am
Anniebrook
button......ch --state of utter ch***, LEAVE off the last letter, last time I give this clue, lol
9:16 am
Strider
the first po7 is toxic!
9:16 am
sparklygem
po7 - cooking vessel + vowel + start of Mr mouse or mr jaggers first name
9:17 am
Haz1558
Buttonman - ch4/6 the first, two vowels, leading to madness/craziness. Second ch4/6, again two vowels, making a word the same as a porcelain producing asian country minus the n.
9:17 am
hurshy
to do with rivers!!!!
9:17 am
sparklygem
yes! lol
9:17 am
Haz1558
The third ch4/6 - ch plus not he, nor she, but **.

9:18 am

9:20 am
sparklygem
thanks for the po7 clue strider! got it!
9:20 am
Anniebrook
buttonman, are you ignoring my clue at 9:16?
9:21 am
Haz1558
The very first ch4/6 - add two vowels. If you added an s you would have a word meaning a crisis/madness/craziness. LEAVE OFF THE S.
9:21 am
Haz1558
Or - ch plus the ending of the Chinese Chairman's name
9:21 am
hurshy
too... many... vowels...
9:22 am
Vicuna
Oh dear. Hear those voices crying, "For crying out loud, woman! Deal with us before the mail comes!!!!" That's my bills. I'll be back later.

9:24 am
hurshy
ah, i am missing a lot of m's, that makes sense
9:25 am
Anniebrook
button, when you see it, you will never forget it...
9:25 am
Buttonman
probably
9:25 am
Anniebrook
i thought you were ignoring me, *sigh*
9:25 am
Haz1558
I will go downtown pondering how else to clue that ch4/6 - c plus pig produce but replace the m with a vowel?
9:26 am
Haz1558
A vowel that is separated from m by one letter?
9:26 am
Buttonman
ANNIE and HURSH...got it and boy do i feel stupid
9:27 am
Haz1558
Yes! The light has dawned!
9:27 am
Buttonman

Bye for now!

9:28 am

9:28 am
hurshy
is mi9 a) a science word b) mis- prefix and/or c) built on any shorter words?
9:30 am
GoBraves

9:30 am
Charm
mi8 = mi*(single lady's title) + a5/10. mi9 is pl.
9:31 am

9:31 am
sparklygem

miametro
i have AN sc7, don't know if there is more than one tho.
9:33 am
hurshy

9:33 am
sparklygem
yes - there's two
9:33 am
hurshy
sigh again!
9:34 am
sparklygem
according to the placement in lickety's clues, it has to start with the sc4/5 I think!
9:34 am
sparklygem
the other one is sc6 nova sc**** then plural
9:36 am
hurshy
start with sc4/5 you mean the one that that one you just clued starts with, right?
9:36 am
sparklygem
yep, I think so anyway - I have been staring at the grid for a while!
9:37 am
sparklygem

5:57 pm
FranMag
so sorry jac. (((hugs)))
5:57 pm
Scrabbler
Wow, that is not what I expected to hear--I thought you were going to say that he was euthanized. So, his spirit was ready and he made it easier on you. You gave him a great life--9 yrs old.
5:57 pm
herinfernallady
im sorry jac i thought joey was getting better
5:58 pm
FranMag
stid, i miss it all the time too, and angb claims i taught her the word!

5:58 pm
stidmama
oh Jacula -- that happened a couple years ago to "Bonita" her sister died the day before so we took her to the vet and while she was in her cage on the counter she just had a massive seizure and went. I was so sad...
5:58 pm
Scrabbler
My bunny, Callie, is at my feet now--I just told her about Joey.

6:02 pm
Scrabbler
Do you have a pet cemetery, Jacula? I have one in the woods next to my house--3 rabbits and many hamsters.
6:02 pm
Jacula
Hi speed. Thank you. I was going to put a good news icon on (but my scanner's broken) - Paul got his silver badge & certificate for having donated 25 pints of blood today. (Not all given today! LOL. Over about 6 years.) Great achievement, I think!:)
6:03 pm
herinfernallady
ok jac its a happy thought though. Brb i think someone has done something silly out front
6:04 pm
Jacula
Scrabbler, yes I have a pet cemetery in my little orchard at the end of the garden. A statue of St. Francis oversees it.
6:04 pm
Uneaixoise
well, I just watched the video and am a blubbering mess!
6:04 pm
Scrabbler
Great for him---a very noble donation.
6:04 pm
FranMag
that's great jac, i have a friend that has hit the 100 pint mark. her type is universal donor so the blood bank actually calls her.
6:04 pm
Jacula
Une - Oh dear! It's very moving, isn't it?
6:04 pm
Uneaixoise

6:05 pm
evanonut

6:05 pm
pam
But, I haven't been headache-free long enough to give platelets in a while. It's a goal...
6:05 pm
Jacula
Fran - Paul's the same - group A positive. ,One of our special donors,' the nurse called him today.
6:06 pm
Jacula
*Passes tissues to Une.*
6:06 pm

herinfernallady
Also whenyou go from dark undercover carpark to glaring near midday sun you can get a bit dazzled, people just dont payattention.
6:13 pm
Jacula
Since the grid accepts words for foreign currency, I'm surprised it doesn't accept French 'house/s'. (I have the stone worker words, btw.)
6:13 pm

6:51 pm
cybernan
I'm serving a pinot gris late harvest ---- along with a little fois gras, of course.... anyone?
6:51 pm
Aloyisius
sc 7 + 8 : great sc** + beginning of an egg breakfast dish and the first vowel at the end, plural it too
6:52 pm
greengeeny
i never heard of pinot gris...only pinot grigio and pinot noir...what kind is that? White or red?
6:52 pm
Aloyisius
hey,I'm there, cybernan!
6:52 pm
Judi
Back for more punishment. Show of hands: Who hates vowels?? Anyone? Anyone?
6:52 pm
metaleather
right now Judi, I detest M's
6:53 pm
metaleather
and M's in conjunction with vowels so consider my hand raised
6:53 pm
cybernan
french equivalent of pint grigio -- late harvest = grapes picked after noble rot has set in and very sweet
6:53 pm
greengeeny
I have my hand raised!
6:53 pm
cliffopa
apparently i'm not very good at words beginning with vowels judi - i have very few!
6:53 pm
Judi
Okay. M's are bad too. I'm down to 69 left and simply must look at Lickety's clues. I'm weak and worthless.
6:53 pm
Jacula
Judi - I love vowels. They have such much potential when the consonants are rightly placed.:)
6:53 pm
Aloyisius
hardest ones for me begin with vowels..
6:54 pm
Jacula
cyber - Not for me, thanks. I'm a very dry white wine girl myself. (The wine being dry, that it, not me!)
6:54 pm
greengeeny
OOh...sounds yummy cybernan...I am a fan of pinot grigio, well, and chardonnay, and pinot noir and merlot...well, just about any wine really
6:54 pm
pam
I was going for a chardonnay, Jac, but I have a low-level headache, so decided that I shouldn't ... sometimes alcohol will turn these into full-blown disasters.....
6:54 pm
Jacula
'such much' potential? I've only had 3 sips! ROFLOL.
6:55 pm
pam
what are you drinking, Jac?
6:55 pm
Jacula
pam - Chardonnary would be my choice (well, IS). Not a good idea if you have a migraine looming though, no. Go for water.
6:56 pm
cybernan
this is just short of being an ice wine --- made here in our valley when it doesn't get cold evough for the ice wine and perfect with fois gras
6:56 pm
greengeeny
I have a glass of Chateau St. Michelle Chardonnay as we speak...
6:56 pm
pam
I get these hormonal migraines and I chose not to use a patch this month (sorry if this is too much info) as the headaches seemed better. Only, they were better because I was using the patch, LOL
6:57 pm
pam
So, no more being my own doctor, I guess, LOLOLOL
6:57 pm
Jacula
'ChardonnaRy'? I'm getting worse!
6:57 pm
greengeeny
OOh, I have had an ice wine before, very expensive, and very syrupy for my taste...tried it at a local winery few months ago
6:57 pm
pam
I like the inexpensice Aussie chardonnays myself
6:58 pm
herinfernallady
some of our chardies are the best
6:58 pm
cybernan
unfortuneately Chardonnay gives me a headache also --- any oaked wine is an instant migraine for me --- love the taste too!!!
6:58 pm
greengeeny
Pam, that Chateau St. Michelle is only 13.00...the only chardonnay I know of from aussie is yellowtail, and I am not a fan
6:59 pm
herinfernallady
Brown Brothers is a good wine so is Wolf Blass
6:59 pm
Jacula
pam - Those are great. I'm on a French Chardonnary at present (a Piat d'Or). Not all Chardonnay's are oaked, cyber. I HATE oaked wine.
