Hi Everyone

i actually found this to be the easiest puzzle, by far, since coming to this site last week
1:43 am
CsCdeFounder

hi lynx
1:43 am

Soxfan - the littleones tend to be really hard. do you use Lickety's list? link under Friends bottom left of this screen
1:45 am
lynxxx

Hi CCF - still playing I see, so Babble must be challenging enough for you?
1:46 am
soxfan22792

nope this is my first time here actually
1:46 am
CsCdeFounder

not particularly, to be honest...but it usually kills an hour of time when i'm bored (not tonight, but most times it does on the bigger ones)
1:47 am
soxfan22792

how do you switch puzzles (if you can)
1:47 am

Soxfan...most of use use Licketys list when we are stuck finding any more words...recommend it highly
1:48 am
soxfan22792

how do i use it?
1:49 am
lynxxx

Go to the link below to open it...it will give you (in alphabetical order) the first 2 letters of each word and the number of letters. I used to use 2 windows side-by-side

Congrats Monkey...I'm just watching Licketys clip too
1:53 am
soxfan22792

wait so it gives the first 2 letters then what do the numbers mean?
1:54 am
CsCdeFounder

wtg monkey
1:54 am
lynxxx

the number before the comma is how many letters in the word. the number after is the points for that word. Read the Help menu above for how the points work
1:55 am
soxfan22792

o ok
1:55 am
CsCdeFounder

sox - the numbers correspond to word length and total points. As an example, di 4/5 means it's a 4 letter word that starts with di and is worth 5 total points.
1:56 am
lynxxx

Bye everyone. and goodluck Soxfan - see you again

I think once you have established yourself in babble you become part of the global family and even if you don't play that often as a result of o/s infulences you are still always family.

4:39 am

I write a blog about where we live. Every year we have a Taverners cricket match here with celebs playing. This year the main celeb was Toyah but shes not coming now

Hello Andree!
4:39 am
Lizsark

So I wrote on my blog that she had pulled out and I've just had a call from someone who says Toyah's pa wants my blog changed to remove that sentence!!!
4:40 am
Andree

i am sooo happy to see a small grid as with the end of financial year i have been too busy to even make an attempt with anything larger
4:40 am
Haz1558

Does Toyah feel that her public image will be tarnished by you telling the truth?
4:40 am
Andree

who is toyah?
4:41 am
Lizsark

Because I am so important and so many people read my personal blog???? LOL LOL LOL
4:41 am
Haz1558

Andree, it's small but with a few 'novelty' words scattered about. But it shouldn't take you too long to get back to the financial stuff.
4:41 am
Haz1558

Exactly, Andree - she's hardly world celebrity status.
4:41 am
Lizsark

She WAS a pop star Andree
4:42 am
Haz1558

Eighties pop star, now actress, took part in 'I was a celebrity, resurrect my career by watching me eat maggots'.
4:42 am

i live under a rock i know as i have never heard of her

I never heard anything so stupid in my life as this request to change something that is the truth that noone would ever read anyway!!!
4:43 am
Haz1558

You've missed nothing, Andree.
4:43 am
Lizsark

Talk about ego!
4:44 am
Haz1558

I dare you to put it in the blog.
4:44 am
Lizsark

I'm very tempted Haz
4:44 am
Haz1558

And be sure to tell us where to find the blog so that we can't read it.
4:44 am
Lizsark

dont suppose anyone can clue me the last do 5/12 pls

I already removed the offending truthful statement lol
4:48 am
Haz1558

Oh, Liz, the pressures have got to you.
4:50 am
Lizsark

My mind is boggling over the sheer arrogance of some people Haz!!
4:50 am
Haz1558

But how did the PA find your blog? Are they googling Toyah obsessively to find any and all mentions of her?
4:50 am
Andree

you shouls have left it there liz
4:50 am
Lizsark

Haz...I may have remembered this wrong but I'm sure that FMitch said if anyone saw you to say hello
4:51 am
Lizsark

Well that was what I wanted to know Haz...Its not like google would put a blog like mine very high up on their results list!!!
4:51 am
Haz1558

Oh,that was nice of her - she's probably away working today, hopefully I'll 'see' her later today.
4:51 am
Lizsark

:))
4:51 am
Haz1558

I'll try googling Toyah and see what happens...
4:52 am
Haz1558

I googled Toyah Willcox, Sark and your blog came up top spot!
4:53 am
Lizsark

ROFL I just did that and guess what??? If you google Toyah Sark, it still brings up my original sentence even though I removed it from the blog HA HA
4:54 am
Haz1558

So, throughout the day, we just have to tell people to google Toyah Wilcox, Sark and the truth will out...
4:54 am
Lizsark

I wish you could see me giggling
4:54 am
Lizsark

what does it matter anyway??? She must be soo weird to think it is important
4:54 am
Haz1558

That PA will probably need hospital treatment.
4:55 am

Or a new job.
4:55 am

Or possibly both.

It's okay, Liz, just as long as you get a good defence lawyer for when you're asked about the malicious and hurtful nature of saying that someone has thrown a spanner in the works. I mean to say...
4:56 am

fo 4/8 with two vowels on the end Andree
4:57 am

5:00 am

5:00 am
Lizsark

strange word! ty
5:01 am
Lizsark

az 5/22?
5:01 am
Haz1558

A lazy sounding false god, to be precise.

5:10 am
Haz1558

I'm surprised I'm even talking to you. I suppose it shows that I'm very forgiving.
5:10 am
Lizsark

Never again will I throw a spanner anywhere!
5:10 am
Lizsark

You are very merciful Haz
5:11 am
Andree

please don't mention i have never heard of her if you do happen to meet
5:11 am
Haz1558

I think so. But I will tell others about you so that they can be shocked as well.
5:11 am
Lizsark

She would be mightily offended if I did Andree
5:11 am
Andree

shame upon me!!!
5:12 am
Lizsark

from now on until the end of time I shall never utter another truthful word....
5:12 am
Andree

1:30 pm
Lizsark

I got fireworks earlier. Just popped in to say hi. Does anyone need any clues while I'm here?
1:31 pm
LeslieAnn

not yet, liz, just started
1:31 pm
lucyloo

hi ya io 5 please x
1:31 pm
Lizsark

no probs - love the puppy LA
1:31 pm
LeslieAnn

thanks, she met her new kitten brother today and was very good.
1:32 pm
Lizsark

io5 io + another word for supper (short version)
1:32 pm
Lizsark

aw bless her. I have a black lab
1:33 pm
LeslieAnn

oh i see you have dogs and cats, liz. any tips on how to get them to get along once the kitten comes home?
1:34 pm
Lizsark

We never had any probs between ours really. The cats all stand their ground with the dogs. They rule the roost around here.
1:34 pm
LeslieAnn

that's good. we are getting one of the feistier kittens so he will be able to stand his ground with the dog
1:35 pm
Lizsark

We always just made sure that the cats had high up places where the dogs couldn't get too them and that they had plenty of escape routes, Eventually they all just muddles along. Now the cats sleep in the dogs baskets
1:35 pm
Lizsark

how old is the puppy?
1:35 pm
LeslieAnn

she is 10 weeks
1:35 pm
LeslieAnn

the kitten is 5 weeks and will be home in a few weeks
1:35 pm
lucyloo

sorry for butting in but i have 5 cats and a dog, and and have found that the kitten will hold it own in the house as they rarely show fear more curiousity,just mealtimes was more cautious x thanks for the io x
1:35 pm
Lizsark

awwwwww I'm so jealous. Oscar was just gorgeous at that age (actually he still is only he's huge now lol)
1:36 pm
Lizsark

not just me daft enough to have 5 cats then Lucy!!
1:36 pm
LeslieAnn

yeah, lucy, the kitten was hissing at first but by the end of a half hour was pretty much indifferent
1:37 pm
Lizsark

Just keep an eye on them at first, they'll soon settle. I had to keep a watch especially if the puppy sniffed the cats in case they lashed out near his eyes
1:37 pm
LeslieAnn

yes, i think we'll pick him up on a friday night and have the whole weekend to keep watch on them
1:38 pm
Lizsark

good idea
1:39 pm
Lizsark

I get blurred vision in my left eye
6:45 pm
pam

an RN friend of mine has lectured me that the stuff I take isn't that much of a big gun, so I shouldn't hesitate--but she works on a hemonc floor, so NOTHING is a big gun to her if you are ambulatory< LOL
6:46 pm
pam

If it's a migraine without barometric involvement, it's my left ear and a feeling like I am in an aquarium
6:46 pm
pam

The barometric/sinus migraines go into my jaws...
6:46 pm
renfield

ouch pam!!!
6:46 pm
pam

night, pink
6:47 pm
pam

ouch to all, ren, LOL
6:47 pm
renfield

yes ouch ouch
6:47 pm
Scrabbler

Look up the trigeminal nerve anatomy, Pam, that is the area involved. It wraps over the side of the face/jaw/temple
6:48 pm
pam

so that would be migraine, yes?
6:49 pm
pam

I know it's not tic douleroux...
6:50 pm
pam

*douloureux
6:50 pm
Scrabbler

Research into migraines has changed the way migraines are understood--not vasoconstriction then vasodilation, but a wave of electrical and biochemical changes, with involvement of that nerve. That is why anticonvulsants can prevent migraines. It is fascinating, except for us sufferers.
6:51 pm
pam

true enough! I had a co-worker for whom depakote was nirvana
6:53 pm
renfield

i was in a study group - i have abnormal brain waves - i guess i was a lab rat.... maltrax made me hallucinate

6:54 pm

Migraines are thought to be epileptic type episodes.

Scrabbler

Hey and we are all Babblers!
6:57 pm

7:07 pm
renfield

i may have psycho theraphy now that we're on the road to recovery
7:07 pm
Jacula

stid - head-banging here in UK describes the way we used to dance to rock music in the 70s. LOL. I used to do a lot of it, but it makes me dizzy now.
7:07 pm
featherbee

7:12 pm
Jacula

My daughter's off to the Bloodstock (Heavy Metal) festival in Derby soon. If you look the site up check out Irish band Finntroll. V. interesting. It's the 'RaaAAAH' type of vocals though.
7:12 pm
Scrabbler

It's hard to stretch out 55 words over a day
7:12 pm
featherbee

very scrabbler.
7:12 pm
Scrabbler

Bloodstock--sounds dangerous
7:12 pm
pam

I will google it later, Jac! "RaaaAAAAH" means like whom?
7:13 pm
pam

Ok, so I am GoodSearching it now 8-)
7:13 pm
Jacula

The weekend after that, she's off to The Reading Music Festival and the day she comes home from that she has to drop off her laundry, have a shower and get over to her Dad's ready for a safari holiday in Africa for 9 days. !0 days after that, she is off to university. I'm not going to have my 'baby' at home for much longer.:(
7:14 pm
featherbee

what do the two d5s start with please? (no clues yet though!)
7:14 pm
featherbee

wow, what a busy summer!
7:14 pm
Jacula

pam - those kind of roaring men who make a noise over the music but you can't work out what the lyrics are. LOL
7:15 pm
Jacula

Scrabbler - Bloodstock's just a heavy metal/goth pun on Woodstock.
7:15 pm
pam

She is one busy gal, Jac!!!!!!
7:15 pm
pam

Oh, not intoo the RAAAH stuff, Jac.
7:15 pm
Scrabbler

A safari---cool!
7:16 pm
pam

Much more into knowing what's being yelled at me!
7:16 pm
featherbee

got one , the do5. anyone know what the other d5 starts with? (no clues!)
7:16 pm
Scrabbler

One do5 is pl of do4, and the other is a variation of a do4 (lady's name, or prima do***
7:17 pm

hiding chat for a minute...
7:17 pm
Jacula

pam - me, too. However, Finntroll are amusing.
7:17 pm

Well done, feather!

It is a cute video
7:22 pm
featherbee

hee, yeah
7:22 pm
Jacula

LOL, Scrabbler. How's Callie, btw?
7:22 pm
Jacula

And ever it was so with teens and young adults, Scrabbler.
7:22 pm
Scrabbler

Callie is doing well and is right behind me---always my little shadow
7:23 pm
featherbee

awww ((((callie))))
7:23 pm
Jacula

Must go to the lickety video site now to see what you're all talking about.
7:23 pm
Jacula

Scrabbler - glad to hear it. BRB.
7:24 pm
featherbee

how did she get the name callie?
7:24 pm
Jacula

Ah, can't get today's. Last one on the list in there was 1st July's Weord Al's 'Polka' Love Weird Al.
7:26 pm
Scrabbler

LOL, it was originally Calvin, after one of my favorite comics, Calvin & Hobbes, then after a few months I realized he was a she and the name changed to Callie. It was a shock!
7:26 pm
featherbee

that was a strange one
7:26 pm
featherbee

oopsie!
7:26 pm
pam

I have the 6 letter beginning with the fo, what does the other start with?
7:26 pm
pam

Oh, and thanks!
7:27 pm
Scrabbler

I got her when she was a little handful of orange fluff, and she could squeeze between the bars of the cage and escape
7:27 pm
Scrabbler

io6=pl of io5
7:28 pm
pam

THANKS!
7:28 pm
Scrabbler

Do you have io5, Pam?
7:28 pm
featherbee

calvin sounds like a perfect name for a rascally bunny
7:29 pm
Scrabbler

Yes! And that comic is a perfect depiction of a rascally boy.
7:29 pm
Scrabbler

I have been very unproductive today, and feeling rather guilty
7:29 pm
featherbee

daniel's gonna turn into a calvin i bet. and then a jeremy, from zits.
7:30 pm
Jacula

Scrabbler - that's how our Flossie ended up being named. We got his sex wrong. Didn't like to change it and confuse him. I guess we could have named him after Ozzy Osbourne and changed it to 'Ozzie' because similar sounding. Didn't fancy him biting heads off bats in the rabbitery though. LOL.
7:30 pm
featherbee

it's a holiday. thus ok to be lazy.
7:30 pm
Scrabbler

LOL, Jeremy IS a grown-up Calvin. Both artists are so clever and creative.
7:30 pm
featherbee

i get zits sent to me daily in emails.
7:31 pm
Jacula

Scrabbler - there is no rule that says you have to be productive every day of your life. Cut the guilt, girl! You didn't sign a contract at birth, did you? *grins*
7:31 pm
Scrabbler

When rabbits are babies their parts are SO itty-bitty, and the testes don't form for a while
7:32 pm
Scrabbler

I know, Jacula, but I have so many things to do around here that relaxing seems against the "rules" in my head.
7:32 pm
Scrabbler

***throwing guilt out the damn window**
7:32 pm
Jacula

..and when a rabbit's very furry 'underneath', it's hard to detect the empty 'tabs'.
7:32 pm
Scrabbler

*Crash*
7:33 pm
Jacula

Scrabs - I know exactly what you mean. I do it all the time myself!
7:33 pm
Jacula

Well done, Scrabs! I'll call the repair man, shall I?
7:33 pm
Scrabbler

Yes, it is, Jacula. But it's strange, Callie does not have nipples and my previous female had 10 (one ended up being removed--she had breast cancer)
7:34 pm
Jacula

How odd, Scrabbler! Not seen that before. Is Callie maybe a hermaphrodite?
7:34 pm
Scrabbler

Silly conversation item---rabbit nipples, but who else would know but you, Jacula?
7:35 pm
Jacula

LOL, Scrabbler!
7:35 pm
Scrabbler

I just don't get it---she was spayed.
7:36 pm
Jacula

Scrabbs - she could have been spayed even is she was an hermaphrodite.
7:36 pm
Scrabbler

I was more aware because of my previous bunny--I had felt the mass. NO, I was not doing breast exams on her 10 nipples
7:36 pm
Jacula

Or did you mean the rabbit with breast cancer?
7:37 pm
Scrabbler

Well, she is quite the little sass, that is what I know---nipper and chewer.
7:37 pm
Jacula

Are you sure she's got none? Or are you just missing tiny ones amongst all the fur?
7:37 pm
Scrabbler

Yes, my previous female was Rusty (also an orange bunny)
7:37 pm
Scrabbler

Wait a minute, I will check her, and risk getting a laceration
7:38 pm
Jacula

Okay. LOL
7:39 pm
Scrabbler

Nope, I feel nothing. And she is upset that you called her a hermaphrodite.
7:39 pm
Jacula

(An aside to any readers)... bunnies can be very vicious when they want to be. Scrabbler really IS putting the unbroken state of her skin at risk here...
7:39 pm
Jacula

LOL! Sorry, Callie.
7:40 pm
Aussieme

OMG, such a tiny grid, but such hard words !!!!! Hello Babbling Buddies.....
7:41 pm
Scrabbler

A Google search comes up empty for rabbit hermaphrodism or intersex--must be poorly researched, for some odd reason, LOL
7:41 pm

hehe, interesting conversation ladies!

hi aussie!
7:41 pm

My hands and arms are scarred from being a bunny companion

Scrabbler

Hi Aussieme
7:41 pm
Aussieme

Hey Feather.... Hows baby bump ??
7:41 pm
Aussieme

Hey Scrabs !!
7:41 pm
Jacula

I guess the only way to have told if she was truly female was to get her in kit. However, if no nipples appeared after the birth, if there was one, then problems would have ensued.
7:42 pm
Aussieme

Hey Jac !!
7:42 pm
Scrabbler

Featherbee, would you have ever expected to read about bunny nipples here?
7:42 pm
featherbee

very bumpy! i think it did another rapid expansion recently, as i keep bumping it into things.
7:42 pm
pam

Hi, aussie
7:42 pm
Jacula

Feather - nipples are always interesting. At least they are to men when they show through tee-shirts. LOL
7:42 pm
Aussieme

Hey pam.... Awww feather, I know how it feels..... I remember just how it went...
7:42 pm
featherbee

i was telling chat earlier today it was i think about daniel's and my nipple conversation
7:42 pm
pam

LOLOL, jac. To me, too, 8-)
7:42 pm
Aussieme

LOL @ Jac.....
7:43 pm
featherbee

LMAO pam!!!!
7:43 pm

What did Daniel say?
7:43 pm
Jacula

feather - I must have missed that! Must check back later.
7:43 pm
Aussieme

I'm impressed, its only taken me 5 minutes to monkey the h word.....
7:43 pm
Jacula

Sorry, Pam, forgot to include you in that. Yes, to you, too.
7:44 pm
pam

No problem, Jac! No problem at all!
7:44 pm
featherbee

he had recently discovered his, and was asking about them. asking what they were. (i don't remember if it was today or yesterday jac!) so i told him they were his nipples. he asked if i had them too (we'd already been through the mommies don't have penises conversation)....
7:44 pm
Scrabbler

Once I was seeing a new baby girl in the office and her 3 yr old brother was sitting in the chair "breastfeeding" his teddy bear. It was adorable. He wanted to do what Mom did.
7:44 pm
Jacula

My daughter, like my mother (it skipped a generation with me) is terrified of her nipples showing. Her bras are that 'armoured' that they dent if you bump into them!
7:45 pm
featherbee

i said yes, he wanted to see. he's 3, i didn't care, figured he'll see them as i nurse the baby, so showed him i had them too. he says "big nipple?" stinker! well, compared to his, and in my pg state, he was right!
7:45 pm
Aussieme

I did that too when my sister was born Scrabs... I was only 4....
7:45 pm
pam

Oh, I missed that gene, Jac!
7:45 pm
featherbee

awwwww, that's sweet scrabs
7:45 pm
Jacula

feather - who is this 'Daniel' guy?
7:45 pm
Jacula

Your son, feather?
7:45 pm

Cute story, feather!
7:45 pm
Aussieme

awww Feather..... Jac, Daniel is feathers son.....
7:46 pm
featherbee

my soon to be 3 year old son!
7:46 pm
Scrabbler

What day is his birthday?
7:46 pm
Jacula

I just realised it's your son, feather. I thought you were talking about some new Babble poster at first and got worried. LOL.
7:46 pm
featherbee

that's nothing compared to the day he was playing with his penis in the tub, looked up at me as it was naturally doing what penises do when played with, and said with a huge grin "big penis!"
7:46 pm
Scrabbler

LOL, Jacula
7:46 pm

7:48 pm
featherbee

what do you do on vacation?
7:48 pm
Jacula

*suppresses snigger at last clue* V. childish, I know. But considering we were talking about nipples and penises....
7:49 pm
featherbee

it's always interesting where the chat goes to on small grid days
7:49 pm
Scrabbler

Two trips to the Adirondacks---yippee! Kayaking, hiking, skinnydipping, and laughing a LOT. The first trip will include a stop in Utica to visit with my mother's sibs and spouses.
7:49 pm

ohh, awesome! my mom's up there now, near old forge
7:50 pm
Jacula

Food, sex, football, family.... chat on small grid days. LOL
7:50 pm

I will be with fellow Babbler, cousin "earth"--she doesn't chat much here
7:50 pm

i love skinny dipping. haven't in quite a while though, as the only place i'll do it is in the creek across from my mom's house, and we haven't gone swimming there in ages.
7:50 pm
Scrabbler

I love Old Forge Hardware. A very cool store.
7:51 pm
featherbee

isn't it the neatest? there's also a very nice toy store up there
7:51 pm

We get up early every morning, kayak across the lake, then skinnydip. It is so invigorating.

I wish that the pc phase would moderate a tad so that there could be a new one, a personal responsibility phase

Loons don't tell tales to the press, Scrabbs.

shoot, now i don't remember which it was
8:00 pm
Jacula

Aussie - Screaming Lord Sutch (David Edward Sutch), 3rd Earl of Harrow (though not really any kind of lord or baronet in reality) always made me smile. Odd that, since he was a manic depressive who committed suicide by hanging himself on June 16, 1999, following the death of his mother a year before.

Nope, Tour de France, wrestling and Wimbledon all pass me by. Wimbledon might have interested me had we not been force fed it by our headmistress after her pupil Anne Haydn Jones won Wimbledon.

8:09 pm
Jacula

bummer - ... and the points for word work like this...SCORING
Each tile has a point value. To determine the score for a word, the point-value for the length of the word is multiplied by the total letter values for the word:

4-letter word = 1 x Points
5-letter word = 2 x Points
6-letter word = 3 x Points
7-letter word = 4 x Points
8-letter word = 5 x Points
9-letter word = 6 x Points

Example:
Word: BABBLE
Points: 3 x (3+1+3+3+1+1)
Total: 36 pts.

Drink some room temperature water, pam, to help dissipate that. Not cold water; that just heightens the pain at the start.

i'm very nervous about that fran. going to talk with the midwife tomorrow at my appt. i was 4 and 1/2 hours with daniel! 25 min of pushing! i was induced with pitocin, and want to know how much of the speed was me, and how much was pitocin.
8:31 pm

and it was 10 days before due date.
8:32 pm

i'd love to go early
8:32 pm

I was 7 hours 36mins with my 1st child (a breech delivery done naturally) and about 1hr 35 mins with 2nd child. (Just as well I intended to have her at home!)
8:32 pm
FranMag

doc thought Gigi would be over 9 lbs. if i went to term
8:32 pm
featherbee

see, that's what i'm afraid of jac! i live 20-25 minutes away from the hospital too, so will need to be very careful i think
8:33 pm
Jacula

Having said that about both deliveries... I did get 4 or 5 hour warnings beforehand (which were uncomfortable, but not too much so).
8:33 pm
FranMag

are you having the baby at home or hospital heather?
8:33 pm
featherbee

hospital
8:34 pm
Jacula

Fran - you've been through a labour before and so should recognise the signs this time... hopefully.
8:34 pm

owie. he just rolled over my bladder. icky feeling.
8:34 pm
featherbee

or me, jac, lol
8:35 pm

i had no false labor or braxton-hicks with gigi, it went quick.

we got to the hospital in plenty of time though, i wouldn't be too worried about it heather.
8:36 pm
Jacula

feather - I remmber a friend from work passing out when her baby did that. How weird it is how different we all are.... I just loved and enjoyed any sign or feeling of my babbies moving around within me. Tht was the best part of pregnancy to me.
8:36 pm

i'm dreading tonight, although New Year's Eve is always worse.

Erm... eek, sorry. meant feather, not Fran. Oh, LOL. Silly me!
8:37 pm

ehh, i'm not 100% in love with being pg! about 90% i'd say. kicking or poking the bladder is not fun!
8:37 pm

i enjoyed that part of pregnancy too jac.
8:38 pm

i must have gotten used to it. i had to empty bladder every two hours from about 12 weeks on!

hey jac, i wouldn't mind having more kids, but then they would outnumber us (my husband and i)
8:41 pm
Jacula

Feather - you try (next time - oh, roflol) having a breech baby who insists on banging his head up against your diaphragm (muscle layer twixt abdomen and chest) causes long time pain during pregnancy and for 2 weeks after.
8:42 pm
FranMag

amazing jac.
8:43 pm
Jacula

... and THEN the litle b*gger insists on being born bum first (not great for the cervbix, since the bum is soft not hard like the skull) and then he spend the rest of his life talking like someone born ar** first!

8:53 pm

Dol - I wish her the same. And LOL about your son ringing just as you mentioned him. My son has the same kind of nose for a freshly brewed pot of tea. He never fails to come downstairss and half-empty it with the huge mug he has. Recently, myOther Hlaf (not his Dad) found himself a bigger mug to clash antlers with! I'd love to shgow you a pic of that but I'm still stuck with my naked, alien computer with none of my stuff on it.
8:55 pm

Feather - If you can find the book 'Farmer Flinders' Hat' it's great for young children. If not, let me know through BabAnon messaging and I will scan it in for you.
8:56 pm
Jacula

It's all about Farmer Flinder's horse taking charge of the hat.
9:00 pm

Another great book for young children is 'Where The Wild Thins Are' by Maurice Sendak. Mind you, you might have to cope with questions from 10 or 11 year olds about why the little boy in the story has a moustache!

i'm going to remind you to post that when you're able to.
9:13 pm
Jacula

I know you will, Fran, and ill rely on you to do so. If you can't, I will have to get a biro out and write illlegible notes to myself. (Most of my writing box is filled with notes or observations like that.)
9:14 pm
Jacula

When I read these notes I leave myself abut writing or whatever, I do wonder if JRR Tolkein did hthe same and that is why it took his son and then grandson to work his notes out for so long.
9:15 pm

the tissue and the competing tea cups.
9:15 pm

stolen red wine? i think i missed that
9:18 pm
Jacula

Fran - no hope whatsoever in telling husbands or other partners to remember things. You must either record it on tape or try to write it legibly when it occurs to you. (That's fun in the middle of the night, with your notebook in reach). Oh , LOL. you maybe get half of what you meant?

i mean "lamb" kleptiko of course.
9:21 pm
FranMag

okay, i'll remember that.
9:21 pm

Or perhaps 1 and a half. I love Grek food and I loved the dish. Other Half is of the mind set that 'fruit should be served with custard or pastry and not meat.
9:21 pm
FranMag

i would email you right now, but internet is really slow right now and it will take forever to switch to email.
9:22 pm

9:25 pm

i love cranberry sauce...when do the rest of you get to eat those things then?
9:26 pm
