12:12 am

Hugabugs

12:12 am

helenkeller

fran - that was a terrible movie - only buster crabbe - there can be no other flash gordon

12:13 am

FranMag

not familiar with that one hk *ducks*

12:14 am

helenkeller

i used to get up at 7 a, on saturdays to watch it - in black & white - i loved flash gordon, dale, princess aurora, ming - the flying guys, the mole people

12:14 am

orionova

Ahh, but the 80's Flash Gorden had that soundtrack by Queen. Classic.

12:14 am

helenkeller

lol fran - so young you are - now, he was dashing, like errol flynn dashing

12:15 am

FranMag

12:15 am

chic

12:16 am

Dax

:)

12:16 am

helenkeller

fran - you have to make it one of your life goals to rent the old flash gordon series - it's gotta be out there somewhere - like the old star trek -you can see the wires flying the spaceships

12:16 am

bluesoul

something like that

12:16 am

harpjane

really> where? *kitties want to know"

12:16 am

renfield

i own it helen

12:17 am

GreyWoulf

12:17 am

FranMag

12:17 am

renfield

hey wolf!!!

12:17 am

helenkeller

see- i knew i liked you rennie! - how long is it all together?

12:17 am

harpjane

farsi is a language, definitely, must be a proper noun

12:17 am

chic

ren was there!

12:17 am

FranMag

hi rennie!! hi harp!!

12:17 am

helenkeller

yes fran - definitely - LOL

12:17 am

12:17 am

MonkeyMind

hi peeps!

12:18 am

VolleymomDee

hi babble buddies

12:18 am

bluesoul

i once made the mistake of asking an egyptian friend if she spoke farsi

12:18 am

helenkeller

hi monkey

12:18 am

chic

it's spelled differently

12:18 am

helenkeller

hiya voll

12:18 am

FranMag

hi monkey! hi dee!

12:18 am

Hugabugs

en7 if it hasn't been said

12:18 am

MonkeyMind

that's weird..Farsi was accepted in another grid not too long ago

12:18 am

harpjane

12:18 am

Douglas

ubiquitious minerals...

12:18 am

renfield

i have the serials - there's a bunch of them - let me look

12:19 am

bluesoul

i dunno...she got really offended though, made me feel bad

12:19 am

Douglas

that refreshes...

12:19 am

FranMag

actually it was farci that was accepted, totally different definition

12:19 am

jillibus

Farsi is the arabicized form of Parsi, due to a lack of the /p/ phoneme in Standard Arabic. Native Persian speakers typically call it "Fārsi" in modern ...(from Google and wikipedia)

12:20 am

chic

the one that is accepted is farci- which is a type of meat dish

12:20 am

steph606

who got the british alternative for bum??

12:20 am

12:20 am

Nice grid. Although with 65 to go I'm slowing down

5:32 am

Eva

same here

5:32 am

Haz1558

I'm down to 32 to go, heading for the list to see what else is there.

5:32 am

hydra

Morning. I have 123 to go and I've slowed down already.

5:33 am

lynxxx

I've got down to 40 but have just brought up Lickety

5:33 am

Chris P

down to 19, but will leave list as last resort

5:33 am

ConXshun

It's good to hear I'm not the only one stretching my brain on a Saturday morning!

5:33 am

lynxxx

Hi Hydra - thats just coz you're not awake yet

5:33 am

Haz1558

Chris gets the gold et6/18.

5:34 am

Eva

thanks for that one haz

5:35 am

hydra

Think you're right, lynxxx. I tried a Glo-to-sleep mask (Google it) to help me sleep and I was allergic to the glue or something. Eyes and nose streamed at 1am and i had to find the Piriton!

5:35 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, Eva.

5:35 am

hydra

Then I dreamed I was bridget Jones and working for MI6!!!

5:37 am

ConXshun

just monkeyed an se6 - a shawl. I didnt' know that word.

5:37 am

Eva

you mean the mexican one?

5:37 am

lynxxx

goodness Hydra - that sounds like something from a horror movie (the mask that is)

5:37 am

rolin

morning all....shopping all done... ive chatted to my son in aus... made some aussie jellie...so now i can have a sit..

5:37 am

ConXshun

yes, that's the one, Eva

5:38 am

ConXshun

hello rolin, sounds like a busy morning!

5:38 am

Haz1558

Hello rolin - it's a really nice grid, you'll have fun.

5:38 am

rolin

conXshun...a very handy item of clothing i think

5:38 am

hydra

It has luminous dots inside it that are supposed to stimulate your alpha rhythms. Did they, my ar4/4!

5:38 am

rolin

yeah haz... i had a little go earlier this am...

5:39 am

hippyrandall

you guys don't know who Chris Pirillo is? He runs Lockergnome.com and featured this site on his top ten list of the day. That's probably why there are a bunch of new users.

5:39 am

rolin

hydra... youre trying to stimulate your ar4???...lol

5:39 am

ConXshun

yes rolin, especially for playing babble in bed.

5:39 am

Eva

what is lockergnome?

5:39 am

hydra

It would be easier than me trying to fall asleep, rolin :)

5:39 am

rolin

lol conX...never thought of wearing t like that

5:40 am

ConXshun

A necessary invention last winter, rolin..;)

5:40 am

rolin

oooh im having trouble sleeping too...*sigh*... cant get any unbroken rest...go to bed tired and wake tired..i hate it

5:40 am

hippyrandall

he has been known to feature a site and had so many of his readers go to the site that the servers can't handle the added load.

5:40 am

Eva

is the purpose to create a problem, or just to give a good referaal?

5:41 am

Haz1558

If he did that to babble, there would be a price on his head.

5:41 am

hydra

I'm the same. I bought some over the counter sleeping tabs in Spain and resort to those from time to time. They're brilliant, rolin

5:41 am

hippyrandall

www.lockergnome.com just referrals. not malicious in any way.

5:41 am

Haz1558

There's a slight problem of addiction with regular users.

5:41 am

rolin

absolutely haz...we'd find him somehow..

5:41 am

cg530

hello hydra...i'm a sleep tech, actually working right now...never heard of glo-to-sleep mask, but it sounds dubious...alpha rhythms mean you're awake, so I don't think you'd want that if your objective is sleep...

5:41 am

rolin

oh really???...hmmm...i have resorted to the occasional phenergan...but they leave me so groggy in the morn

5:42 am

Chris P

I said it wasn't me!!

5:42 am

hydra

V interesting, cg530. Can you give me any tips? I've tried relaxation tape, lavender, various things from herbalist...

5:42 am

Haz1558

hippy - we're probably wary of hordes of new babblers at one go because of a previous experience where we were inundated with the same questions for hours on end. We're usually welcoming, but that took the biscuit.

5:43 am

Eva

rolin-try half a pill instead. I've been doing better lately, with herbs, an improved diet, and enough exercise. Also find that I need to go to bed early enough. Also, not being a peri or menopausal woman helps!

5:43 am

hydra

Don't touch Phenergan rolin. Tried to buy some more the other day and chemist said they thin the skin on your arms so you have to wear lots of extra sun protection.

5:44 am

rolin

yup..im there too eva...*rolling eyes*

5:44 am

rolin

yup..im there too eva...*rolling eyes*

5:44 am

cg530

well, let's see...i've got a sound machine that stimulates DELTA rhythms, which are the best for restful sleep...Brookstone (US) has a great sound machine for $99. I use it myself to help sleep during the day...

5:44 am

rolin

ooohh excellent..thx for the tip hydra..

5:44 am

hippyrandall

i understand. he used to have his own tv show too on Tech TV. this is not a bad person or whatever. Just a techie

5:44 am

rolin

*looking up delta rhythms*

5:44 am

Eva

Tried neurofeedback for it too, but that didn't seem to help, although it does for some.

5:45 am

Eva

Whatever you do at bedtime, it should be aiding your brain to move into slow wave activity, theta and delta, not higher frequencies.

5:45 am

hydra

Just checked the website cg530. It says beta rhythms keep you awake and alpha send you to sleep. Does this mean they've got it wrong?

5:45 am

cg530

delta rhythms are "deep sleep" generated...means you're at your most relaxed, just before REM (dream) sleep

5:45 am

Haz1558

Okay - he's off the hit list for now. The influx hasn't been crazy.

5:46 am

cg530

some of my patients use melatonin...can't vouch for it, but some swear by it

5:46 am

Eva

okay-promised myself I'd stop at 6:45 so as not to be late. See you all sanon

5:46 am

hydra

I need some of those, cg. Can you tell me more about thesound machine? How does it work?

5:46 am

rolin

just rerading about that not ..cg..

5:47 am

ConXshun

bye Eva

5:47 am

lynxxx

bye Eva

5:47 am

rolin

now

5:47 am

cg530

you know, my noise machine paperwork says it stimulates alpha rhythms too, but in reality, an alpha rhythm only occurs when you are AWAKE, but your eyes are closed...

5:47 am

rolin

bye eva...

5:48 am

hydra

The silly thing about the sleep mask is that if you're staring at the glowing dots, you're awake. You need to close your eyes to sleep!

5:49 am

elmer

morning everyone

5:49 am

hydra

Morning elmer

5:49 am

cg530

if you go to www.brookstone.com and search for "sound therapy system" it'll tell you all about it..highly recommend it...masks out lawnmowers, kids playing, dogs barking...it has 12 different sounds

5:49 am

lynxxx

Hi Elmer

5:49 am

Haz1558

Good morning elmer.

5:49 am

hydra

Sounds brilliant cg. I'll take a look. Thank you.

5:50 am

cg530

hydra, if you'd like to know more, my email is cagoodfellow@comcast.net...i'd be happy to share/answer any other questions :-)

5:50 am

ConXshun

for me the best way to fall asleep (when I can't) is sit up against cushions with a warm drink. I delude myself into thinking I don't have to sleep yet. I sip my drink and usually before I finished it my eyes are heavy with sleep. I can fool myself like that nearly every time!

5:51 am

ConXshun

hello elmer

5:51 am

hydra

Thanks cg.

5:51 am

rolin

its not gettong to sleep thats a problem..its staying asleep...i wake up at 3:30 on the dot..tho i have found by wearing an eyemask..im getting thru to 4:30..

5:52 am

Morning all..what a lovely Spring morning

5:52 am

5:52 am

ConXshun

hello caitlyn!

5:52 am

rolin

has anyone got the up words?

5:53 am

ConXshun

ah yes rolin, that's very annoying. I haven't found a way to deal with that yet either...

5:53 am

rolin

ok just got one up word..ty monkey

5:54 am

lynxxx

up4.6 up + **k for a clue. the 6 is a plural of that (I think)

5:54 am

ConXshun

the ah is niggling me....

5:54 am

rolin

con...sit on the ho5

5:54 am

caitlyn

ConXshun

thanks lynxxx!

5:55 am

rolin

no cg...i have an apnoea sufferer next to me...so i have earplugs in to block out his little machine

5:55 am

ConXshun

ah... ah! thank you! now I feel silly... ;)

5:56 am

lynxxx

interesting facts cg530 - TY. should we have a radio/TV on?

5:56 am

rolin

thx lynxxx...slly word

5:56 am

hydra

My prob is what i call 'busy brain syndrome'. Can't stop the problems and worries surging in.

5:57 am

cg530

actually, no tv, use bedroom ONLY for sleep/sex, no caffeine before bed, try not to eat too much too close to bed time, no exercise at least 5 hours before bed

5:58 am

rolin

hey...i can do the no exercise..lol..and al the others for thatmatter... one of the first things i was taught going into teaching is to never take work to bed

5:58 am

lynxxx

thanks for the info

5:58 am

ConXshun

Some days that would mean getting ready for bed just after you get up.... ;)

5:59 am

hydra

Wonder if hypnosis would work? You could think of a keyword and poof! off you go.

5:59 am

rolin

so afternoon walks not evening walks?

5:59 am

ConXshun

and WHAT are the two ef' biggie words?

6:00 am

rolin

con.... to gush about something

6:01 am

cg530

sometimes, I make lists in my head...like all the US states that begin with M, or all the states that don't have an "A" in them...sounds silly, probably, but it works for me...pick a mundane subject, and you';l; bore yourself to sleep ;-)

6:01 am

ConXshun

effervesce???

6:01 am

rolin

nope...ef+f4

6:02 am

hydra

I find that wakes me up, cg. Too much mental effort!

6:02 am

Kazzer99

hydra - they key word thing works with me - I have devised asystem whereby yo tell yourself a story and now i tend to go to sleep at the same point - dont know where I got it from but I've been doing it for years

6:03 am

rolin

when i used to have bad pain...i used to recite the times tables backwards

6:03 am

ConXshun

thanks rolin, I'll keep looking. I don't have the particular f4 yet

6:03 am

hydra

Wow. Lovely idea kazzer. And lovely penguin too.

6:04 am

cg530

a form of self-hypnosis might work...concentrate on total relaxation, starting w/ top of your head, then forehead, then eyebrows, etc. concentrate on totally relaxing and FEELING each part...i've used that method too...

6:04 am

caitlyn

I found that a couple of glasses of wine help me sleep..no problem..LOL

6:05 am

I'm always amazed how they manage to stay up in the air. It looks like really hard work for them.

6:24 am

ARB

Peace is a lovely thought.

6:24 am

rolin

are you a follower of the football arb?

6:25 am

ConXshun

That reminds me of a dance I recently learned with the 'ghost step'. A step danced by the Hopi Indians (for which they were killed). Their prophecy was that if everyone danced the ghost step the earth would be healed and there would be peace....

6:25 am

ARB

Not really, but my grandson is and tonight he is going to the Israel-England game

6:25 am

rolin

i have a freind who is in israel for business...and is delighted cos hes doing the same..

ARB

Unfortunately, his father (my son-in-law) is on duty tonight, so Grampa gets to go with the almost 8-year-old, who knows the biographies of ALL the players.

6:26 am

rolin

why were they killed for doing it?

6:27 am

ConXshun

because what they were doing was not understood, and it was wrongly interpreted.

6:27 am

rolin

lol.. arb..i hope hes ready for the constant chatter im envisaging..

I would like to see us all sing and dance and WORK for peace.

9:10 am

Anniebrook

I just finished cleaning the kitchen--dropped a glass and bam!

9:11 am

9:11 am

Scrabbler

Oh, dear, Annie---don't get cut!

9:11 am

Anniebrook

I vacuumed and washed the floor-- but I will be seeing teeny weeny slivers for day, oh well

9:12 am

Scrabbler

I just got a new desk top, well the CPU, 17 mo ago, and had not even considered a laptop, but that will be my upgrade in 3-4 yrs

9:13 am

kc8501

I don't know if I'd have considered it, except that at work we've moved to laptops with docking stations... so it's like the laptop is the box--- you have all the peripherals as normal -- but at night you just hit a button and take the laptop home

9:14 am

Scrabbler

What is the docking station?

9:15 am

kc8501

just a port connection really. the lap tops have oneon the bottom and it just sets down into it

9:16 am

rachmouse

docking station is like a strip that both the laptop and big monitor and keyboard connect to

9:16 am

dan2bit

a clue for *any* sa 6?

9:16 am

Scrabbler

Oh, I get it.

9:16 am

9:18 am

Scrabbler

But, you gave me a clue to 2 words, rachmouse!

9:18 am

licketySplitAUS

so I might go 1:59 to 1:00 am ?

9:19 am

rachmouse

is that good or bad? ;-)

9:19 am

dan2bit

up + "** the world turns", then plural

9:19 am

NonnieLight

upoff should be a word...I use it all the time "I really should get upoff my butt and get something done"

9:19 am

hurshy

SA6 = alt sp of se6 (mexican... shawl?)

9:19 am

rachmouse

in the fall, yes, lickety

9:19 am

rachmouse

fall back - spring ahead

9:19 am

Scrabbler

Perhaps you will, lickety--is it backwards for you now in the southern hemisphere?

9:19 am

hurshy

and it IS fall in australia! lol

9:19 am

rachmouse

oh right!

9:20 am

rachmouse

lol. I just realized after I typed

9:20 am

licketySplitAUS

for me - it's happening in 39 mins

9:20 am

rachmouse

forgive me - haven't even had 1/2 cup of tea yet.

9:20 am

Scrabbler

Where are you rachmouse?

9:21 am

rachmouse

danng. there are a lot of P words

9:21 am

Scrabbler

Ty for the up words, dan. I tried upass which should be a word

9:22 am

dan2bit

9:22 am

hurshy

9:23 am

rachmouse

9:23 am

rachmouse

9:23 am

rachmouse

how do you spell horseys?

9:23 am

rachmouse

cute wee little horses.

9:23 am

NonnieLight

horsies?

9:24 am

rachmouse

they all look wrong

9:24 am

hurshy

i think it would be horsies but it just doesn't count... like peepee wouldn't count...

9:24 am

Scrabbler

Now there you have a word, finally, rachmouse--off to the penalty box

9:25 am

dan2bit

anybody have the po7?

9:25 am

Cathyar

why isn't nausea a word?

9:25 am

Scrabbler

It rhymes with pussy-cat, that po7

9:25 am

hurshy

um... it is

9:25 am

Scrabbler

It is, cathy!

9:26 am

rachmouse

maybe you mistyped cathy? :-)

9:26 am

Smiley23_47393

9:26 am

Scrabbler

I rarely see her, or faerie

9:26 am

hurshy

hmm, i don't know. i didn't see her say she was quitting...

9:26 am

Smiley23_47393

wonder why

9:27 am

Cathyar

9:27 am

Scrabbler

Faerie is working a lot, and has a boyfriend

9:27 am

kc8501

my husband has created monsters. He's got the kids shooting the squirrels away from the bird feeder

9:27 am

Smiley23_47393

9:27 am

Cathyar

oops...sorry...it did work... *blushes*

9:27 am

rachmouse

9:27 am

Scrabbler

9:27 am

rachmouse

9:28 am

kc8501

9:28 am

Smiley23_47393

9:28 am

hurshy

9:28 am

kc8501

9:28 am

Scrabbler

Tell them not to hurt the squirrels

9:28 am

Smiley23_47393

9:29 am

hurshy

9:29 am

Smiley23_47393

Smiley23_47393

9:30 am

hurshy

9:30 am

Scrabbler

9:30 am

Smiley23_47393

9:30 am

hurshy

Scrabbler

Well, at least the ones I am missing you can't find either

9:31 am

rachmouse

9:31 am

9:34 am

Anniebrook

9:35 am

dan2bit

9:35 am

Smiley23_47393

9:36 am

hurshy

9:36 am

rachmouse

motorcycle would be cool there.

9:36 am

Scrabbler

Yahoooo dan!

9:36 am

hurshy

i meant one with a consonant as the third letter.

9:36 am

kc8501

hurshy-- honestly so was I, then I got into it curtosy of the mr...

9:36 am

Anniebrook

hurshy, so it is but I was able to get it from your clue

9:37 am

kc8501

turns out that the majority of bike accidents are crotch rockets -- and other drivers so you just have to stay very aware of other drivers

9:37 am

Smiley23_47393

defensive driving

9:37 am

hurshy

well... "if i loved a man as she loves the Admiral, i would rather be upset by him than driven safely by anyone else"

9:38 am

hurshy

i think i got that approximately right.

9:38 am

kc8501

want to know the absolute best part of the bike? You can't hear the kids yapping in the back!!!

9:38 am

Smiley23_47393

lol

9:38 am

Scrabbler

Who wrote that, hursh?

9:38 am

9:47 am

kc8501

said she actually probably knew more about the father than if she'd dated him for a year

9:47 am

rachmouse

can't totally determine birth date.

9:47 am

Smiley23_47393

pick it all out that way hair education eyes no we get to set date did with the last two

9:47 am

hurshy

9:48 am

rachmouse

even if the baby isn't ready? thought they generally only induced when there was danger to the mom or it was going on way too long. not cause a specific date was wanted.

9:48 am

Smiley23_47393

hell my partner even gets to do all the procedure doc is just there to make it all legal

11:50 am

smooth_pappa

my job there is managing all the samples that come in for photo shoots, and caring and storing those items until we either send them back to the artist or sell them. It is a very fun job!

11:50 am

momof3boys

i don;t have an eye for fine art, i'm afraid.

11:50 am

chic

well it easier that way or print out the page without boxes...

11:51 am

momof3boys

chic, i am just whiny!!! lol... i played around for a while yesterday and found a way to get them side by side, but it isn't worth the trouble.... i am not that big of a fan of the list anyway...

11:52 am

smooth_pappa

fortunately that's not required mom. ;) I don't like quite a few things that we sell... but there are times when something will come in that just blows me away

11:52 am

chic

no whining then! lol....

11:53 am

momof3boys

pppplllleeeaassseee...i have to whine today.... it is one of those days!

11:53 am

sherb

mom - click on the middle symbol in the top right corner... your page will shrink a bit... if you hover your cursor over one edge, you can then drag it to the size you want... do the same with your other tab, and you can have them both side by side...

11:58 am

11:58 am

K.Elisabet

hard enough scrolling up and down the list when it's on the side...

11:58 am

momof3boys

it is less distracting to have one screen at a time, but i find i spend half the game switchng back and forth, if they aren't side by side

11:58 am

sherb

I prefer it without the list... until the last few words...

11:59 am

oh yeah, i forgot about that. can it be the opposite of infu4 as well, or not?

12:49 pm

12:50 pm

inge

I'm missing an A from the bottom row...

12:52 pm

12:53 pm

hurshy

well, it was an expert...

12:53 pm

Haz1558

Sherb - do you have the at4/5?

12:53 pm

hurshy

po7 sounds like a kitty cat

12:53 pm

cybernan

good morning/afternoon, everyone :)

12:53 pm

sherb - a4/5 - above

12:53 pm

hurshy

Hello cybernan.

12:53 pm

hurshy

don't forget evening!

12:53 pm

12:53 pm

doxy1lover

thanks, got it

12:54 pm

sherb

and Denny :)

12:55 pm

sherb

and hurshy :)

12:55 pm

hurshy

but i picked the wrong one!

12:55 pm

inge

the icon theme does not appeal to me at all, so I am sticking with the planets

12:56 pm

sherb

only because you assumed I wasn't stupid enough to have missed the at4...

12:56 pm

Atalante

what is the theme today?

12:56 pm

hurshy

superheroes!

12:56 pm

hurshy

or super villains

12:57 pm

Atalante

ooo! so my icon's fine anyway :)

12:57 pm

hurshy

but sherb, i found the af6 before the at4 too, so i should have known. we try plurals even if they don't make sense. :)

12:58 pm

sherb

:)

12:58 pm

hurshy

the problem is i was too lazy to really analyze the question, and satisfied myself with a mere "oh, af6 is sort of weird, maybe that is it..."

12:58 pm

cybernan

ar 5 ? -- have spaces and bottoms

12:58 pm

hurshy

shoddy work, really.

12:58 pm

sherb

in the UK, af6 is used to describe dessert...

12:58 pm

Atalante

bottoms with a different vowel

12:58 pm

hurshy

take the bottoms and make it look singular in a latin manner

12:58 pm

Haz1558

Oh, but we would use af6 to describe the dessert course sometimes. 'What's for af6/27?'

12:59 pm

cybernan

ty

12:59 pm

hurshy

oh, you wonderful britishers!

12:59 pm

Haz1558

Cybernan - make the ar5/10 bottoms sightly different with another vowel at the end

1:00 pm

Denny

1:01 pm

Denny

thansk for that ar haz

1:01 pm

Atalante

my dear husband brought home a wonderful chocolate sponge. but I'm on a diet. gah

1:01 pm

Haz1558

It's funny how drizzle in the context of pudding can sound good, but in the context of weather....

1:01 pm

hurshy

man ALIVE what are you people doing to me, i have nothing sweet in the house

1:02 pm

hurshy

should i bake or go to town?

1:02 pm

Denny

1:02 pm

jmcantrell

1:02 pm

Denny

1:02 pm

Judi

Oh, be honest, Hurshy. There must be a dusty chocolate chip hiding in the cupboard somewhere.

1:02 pm

hurshy

only me what?

1:02 pm

Atalante

go to town! cake without effort!

1:02 pm

Haz1558

And today I discovered giant sized peppermint ae4/4 bars. 3 times the usual size with a health warning attached.

1:02 pm

1:02 pm

hurshy

1:02 pm

hurshy

i would have to make them into cookies.

1:03 pm

cybernan

1:03 pm

NonnieLight

hello

1:03 pm

Denny

(frantically looks up woollies website)

1:04 pm

Haz1558

No, kind of on the lines of 'If you read the calorie count on this, you may faint dead away'

1:04 pm

hurshy

1:04 pm

NonnieLight

1:05 pm

Haz1558

1:05 pm

Atalante

you can get those size chocolate and toffee ones too, but the mint ones are best!

1:05 pm

hurshy

i always get them because my college - williams, was founded by ephraim williams, so we are the ephs. and we had an a capella group called ep***ia.

1:05 pm

hurshy

ata loves her mint chocolate

1:05 pm

Denny

oh yes - have you tried the ae** bubbles?

1:06 pm

NonnieLight

can someone help with the en7--I've looked and looked and still can't figure it out!

1:06 pm

Haz1558

I don't think I've ever had toffee ae4/4 - the orange flavour is reasonable, but mint is best.

1:06 pm

Atalante

mint choc is the best and the ae** bubbles are to die for!

1:06 pm

hurshy

i am en7 of everyone's sweet treats

1:06 pm

Haz1558

en7 - an adjective used to describe one who wants what another person has.

1:06 pm

sherb

must get supper ready... back for the last 7 later...

1:06 pm

Denny

any mint chocolate is divine - the darker the better for me too

1:07 pm

doxy1lover

talking about all those sweets is making me hungry, pass them over!!

1:07 pm

Denny

i have the mint chocolate baileys...mmmmmm

1:07 pm

Haz1558

I agree, Atalante, they are great. What's your take on the repackaging of Smarties. I'm still not reconciled to it.

1:07 pm

NonnieLight

ah, thank you so very much! The make fireworks for me!

1:07 pm

Atalante

NonnieLight

1:08 pm

Haz1558

I experimented and made a mint flavoured cheesecake, decorated with crushed mint ae4/4. It looked pretty good.

1:08 pm

Denny

anyone remember years ago in the 80's terrys used to do a chocolate called a pyramint? - i used to save my school dinner money and buy one every day!

1:08 pm

Haz1558

I don't remember pyramint at all.

1:08 pm

Atalante

HAZ! have you still got a recipe? did you even write down a recipe?

1:09 pm

Atalante

I do vaguely

1:09 pm

Denny

a small dark chocolate pyramid filled with a gorgeous mint runny fondant. oh my mouth is watering at the memory...

1:09 pm

Haz1558

I kind of adapted a recipe I have for lemon cheesecake. I could probably put it in Babanon, though the directions for flavouring would be vague.

1:10 pm

Judi

Missing the last "u". Have up4/6 and us4/5 x 2. What's the last one?

1:10 pm

Atalante

oh would you? I'd love you for ever for even some pointers to the right direction. That sounds so so gorgeous

1:13 pm

Atalante

G&B is my favourite chocolate. All types, but the mint is divine. Actually I also love their milk chocolate, even though I'm distinctly a dark chocolate girl

1:15 pm

Denny

Me too. another nice milk chocolate is Lindt - they do an extra creamy milk chocolate that is surprisingly not too sweet, but give me dark any day. MY easter egg is a G&B dark egg with assorted choccies!
