Hanukkah is more of a kids holiday....we don't really "do" it

1:29 am

westford

I love getting cadeaux and I make that known

1:29 am

Just1Mar

lol westie!

1:30 am

tygerbryght

I've encountered a few (very, tis true) who do give presents to adults for the holiday, but usually it's just one, not daily, like for kids

1:30 am

westford

I like giving them more

1:30 am

Just1Mar

me too!

1:30 am

herinfernallady

Just1Mar

2:44 am

Lorrie_in_SA

Well done herin !

2:44 am

Andree

not yet west but one of our old franchisees who drove similar truck for 12 years has not enough work in his own small business so at an hourly rate will drive for me until i get the right person, saved my sanity

2:45 am

westford

jemima's day isn't complete until she does some

2:45 am

Just1Mar

so does anyone watch Dexter? think it's on Showtime in the states

2:45 am

westford

that's great andree at least you can breathe a sigh of relief for awhile

2:46 am

westford

there used to be a show about a tiny little black boy called Dexter but I have a feeling it's not that

2:46 am

Andree

i put the job on jobseek on net and already have quite a few replies

2:46 am

Just1Mar

I guess not....well it;s well worth it if you're like me and not so much into network type shows

2:46 am

Just1Mar

lol no westie, it's not that

2:47 am

westford

andree are these applicants experienced or will you have to train them?

2:47 am

Just1Mar

that's gotta be Sambo! lol

2:47 am

westford

we don't get Showtime

2:47 am

westford

I agree with you about regular network shows

2:48 am

Just1Mar

neither do I (we don't get any US cable stations but they were showing it on a Canadian network

2:48 am

Just1Mar

but they censored parts so I decided to d/l it

2:48 am

Andree

but would really love to keep matthew on if we could agree to something other than his rather high hourly rate, he has agreed to stay and train if necessary but I am trying to employ someone this time who does not need crane training

2:48 am

westford

it starred Emmanuel Lewis as a little boy who was adopted by white parents. I think the man who played the father was a football player

2:49 am

Just1Mar

sounds vaguely familiar but I'm sure the title wasn't "Dexter"..

2:50 am

westford

that sounds like a wise decision Andree

2:50 am

Andree

anyhow business is back on track, my other driver is able to take his holiday next week and i feel a lot better

2:50 am

Jellen

Webster, westford. I think Dick Butkas (sp?) was the dad.

2:50 am

westford

I hope you won't be giving the one who flew the coop a good reference

2:50 am

westford

that was it thanks jellen

2:51 am

westford

I can see the woman but can't remember her name either

2:52 am

Andree

i will be giving him no reference at all and i don't think he would be stupid enough to have anyone phone me for one

2:52 am

Just1Mar

I've d/l'ed such great shows that I'd never ever get to see

2:52 am

westford

I don't blame you Andree. I hope he never finds work in your business

2:53 am

westford

we have tivo it's wonderful

2:54 am

westford

of course we don't have it up here

2:54 am

Andree

must go and get dressed , family outing to a thai resaurant tonight, my daughter who left her erring husband a year ago is bringing new boyfriend to meet her brothers[ i have met him already]

2:54 am

Just1Mar

we don't have that here....it's another type of system similar but with our old tv it's not worth it

2:54 am

westford

sounds like a fun time Andree you need it

2:55 am

Just1Mar

we were gonna redo most of the kitchen this year westie but with son getting married in Vegas...that's been put of hopefully only til next year

2:55 am

Andree

west he wont find work in the skip business again as i asked around the tips etc to see if they knew any drivers and they will soon pass the word around

2:55 am

westford

the wedding has to take priority..time enough for a new kitchen

2:56 am

westford

Good Andree!! after what he did he doesn't deserve to work

2:57 am

Andree

ha ha just wish i had a new kitchen instead of the fabulous wedding we gave my daughter

2:57 am

westford

no money back guarantee? lol

2:57 am

Atalante

can I ask a rather strange question?

2:57 am

jillibus

hey, this baby is quite fun for a change!

2:58 am

Atalante

it fits in perfectly to what Andree just said!

2:58 am

jillibus

yes please ata

2:58 am

Just1Mar

well we replaced 2 appliances already....kinda doing it in stages

2:59 am

Atalante

if you spent a lot of money on a daughter's wedding, would you hate her for some years later getting divorced and "wasting" that money of yours?

3:00 am

Just1Mar

well that doesn't apply to me ata....son is paying his own wedding......we are giving generous gift and flying out there with hotel etc

3:00 am

rolin

if it was a bad marriage id happily pay more money to get her out of it..

3:00 am

Kari Marie

any help with ga6?

3:00 am

jillibus

I'm astonished at how elaborate and extravagant US weddings are these days!

3:00 am

Atalante

but imagine it did ...

3:00 am

Andree

no ata but wish she had listened to me i begged her not to marry him, if i was going to hate her which i never could it would be for not listening to me

3:01 am

Haz1558

Can I jump in? If she was really unhappy in the marriage, it would be unreasonable to expect her to stay married just for you to supposedly get your money's worth.

3:01 am

rolin

the same is happening here jilli...rediculous..

3:01 am

Just1Mar

with the surcharges on fuel for flights....the surcharge is more expensive than the flight!

3:01 am

Atalante

I mention it because I know that's what is going to happen to me, and I was wondering whether I should feel mega-guilty about it or not

3:01 am

rolin

morning al...btw

3:01 am

westford

I can answer that. One daughter was divorced soon after she married. We thought of it as her decision. Another daughter is still married and we wish she would divorce him. Not saying it though

3:01 am

Just1Mar

oy

3:01 am

Just1Mar

oy vey westie

3:02 am

Atalante

I suspect that if I get divorced, which is a certain possibility right now, I'll get disinherited too *facepalm*

3:02 am

Kari Marie

ga6 anyone?

3:02 am

Just1Mar

ga6 french cake

3:02 am

rolin

then your parents will be wrong ata... simple

3:03 am

Haz1558

Then there's something wrong with the parental relationship. You're an independent woman, you shouldn't be subject to that sort of control any more.

3:03 am

Andree

when i met new boyfriend she rang me up the next day to get my opinion so is at least trying not to repeat her mistake

3:03 am

Haz1558

Mind you, I kind of understand Paris Hilton's grandfather disinheriting her.

3:04 am

Atalante

thank you, rolin. I can deal with that, I've just been wondering for ages whether I'm just being selfish and mean for not considering her point-of-view. I didn't think so, but when the subject turned to this anyway, I thought I'd get some confirmation!!

3:04 am

westford

just those are the sisters of the one who got married in October they are happy as clams maybe because they married later in life

3:04 am

Kari Marie

ty just!

3:05 am

jillibus

lots of French in this one I see

3:05 am

rolin

if her point of view is based om money...then its just not right...a childs happiness cant be measured in terms of money... im not advocating we spoil kids materialistically..but youre an adult..totally different.

3:06 am

Just1Mar

yw kari

3:06 am

Andree

i adore my daughter and would never "disinherit" my father actually financed me leaving my husband so i could get a flat etc in secret, he died 3 months later and said at least he could die in peace

3:06 am

westford

you were blessed then Andree

3:06 am

Atalante

its all very silly *sigh*

3:07 am

ajv74

3:08 am

pugmama763

Atalante

3:08 am

rolin

my mum was the first person i went to when i left my husband... she helped me..cos i needed her to...she was upset about the marriage breakdown..but my happiness was her priority...tjhats what parents do for their kids surely?

3:08 am

Andree

3:08 am

westford

I mean blessed to have such a father Andree

3:09 am

3:09 am

jillibus

bye rolin

3:10 am

Atalante

you would think so, wouldn't you? there's one good thing about this though - I know exactly what she'll do, so I don't expect support from there that I won't get!

3:10 am

westford

bye rolin hurry back

3:10 am

Haz1558

Hello jillibus!

I read today that the Opeckers are questioning the high prices

3:23 am

jillibus

Ours is going up too, and the provincial government is slapping a new tax on it too

3:23 am

Just1Mar

Just1Mar

3:24 am

Just1Mar

3:24 am

Just1Mar

it's so ffffing insane

3:24 am

jillibus

We can't onderstand it -- the other islands nearby don't pay nearly as much

3:24 am

westford

someone is getting very rich

3:25 am

Just1Mar

that is strange jilli...

3:25 am

westford

stations are starting to run out of gas

3:25 am

Just1Mar

big thing in Que the last 2 days.....proof of price collusion and price gouging

3:25 am

westford

I remember the gas lines of the 70's sitting in the car for 3 hours with 4 little kids

3:26 am

westford

we sang a lot of songs lol

3:26 am

Just1Mar

it's such bs.....market speculators driving price up....who tf are they?

3:26 am

jillibus

I heard that, mar. And Dion is going on about wanting that inflationary Carbon Tax we're getting in BC

3:27 am

westford

windfall profits...hmmm I wonder why?

3:27 am

Just1Mar

3:27 am

Just1Mar

3:27 am

Just1Mar

3:28 am

westford

3:28 am

Just1Mar

3:28 am

Atalante

3:28 am

westford

babble is our life

3:28 am

jillibus

the Carbon Tax is fine for urban areas where there is alternative transportation, but in ruual areas there's nothing. We should all sell up and move to cities?

3:28 am

Just1Mar

3:28 am

Atalante

ooops! *shuts up*

3:29 am

3:32 am

hydra

If anyone has the ga7, please give me a clue!

3:32 am

3:32 am

westford

hydra it doesn't exist it was a misprint

3:33 am

westford

ok then jilli you can go lol

3:33 am

Haz1558

Hydra, the ga7 on Lickety's list is not acceptable in the grid. His is the anglicised version of the french cake plural, it's not accepted.

3:33 am

hydra

Does this mean we can't finish the grid?

3:33 am

Just1Mar

night jilli

3:33 am

westford

we've all finished

3:33 am

Atalante

no, cos there's no 7s in the grid

3:34 am

Haz1558

It means that there are 53 words to be found, not 54.

3:34 am

Just1Mar

4:18 am

Atalante

4:18 am

LoriP

Must have been a glitch.

4:19 am

Atalante

lickety's contained the plural of the ga6, babble dictionary doesn't

4:19 am

LoriP

Ata should take Hobbit to the beach. It seems like a beach day.

4:20 am

Atalante

you read my mind, lori. I was thinking beach too. hmmm. *looks up whether its low or high tide*

4:20 am

Atalante

ooo its low tide (ish)

4:20 am

Atalante

yay

4:21 am

LoriP

Yea! Low tide is the stinkiest and mostest bestest time!

4:21 am

Atalante

yep! especially when you can get to 1/2 mile long MUD FLATS

4:22 am

Atalante

1/2 mile wide even, miles long

4:23 am

LoriP

tide's coming in here now, just lookd out the window.

4:23 am

Atalante

4:24 am

Atalante

4:24 am

LoriP

Mud, water and stench

4:24 am

LoriP

***remind me to pry the 'e' off my keyboard, and clean it one of these days***

4:26 am

Atalante

and bunnies and seagulls to chase too. what more could she want!

4:27 am

Atalante

we have bunnies on our beaches for some reason!

4:27 am

phandmd

Hey, Lori, don't forget, you really need to pry the E off of your keyboard so you can clean it. Why don't you do it now, instead of waiting til you get a roundtuit

4:31 am

Atalante

ok, beach time. I will return, muddied and soggy probably!

4:35 am

phandmd

ajv74

Hello, chiley!

5:31 am

elder

hello everyone, how weird ! the grid would not allow me to place plural of the cake. Fireworks arrived ..without the Lickety list complete, so placed the word in Lickety ..it was accepted.. how odd !!

5:32 am

chiley

is that the ga word?

5:33 am

elder

yes .. and it is still not, in the list beside the grid !!

5:34 am

chiley

I have the same problem

5:34 am

elder

but I am finished, so now to put washing out ,then into town to collect new spectacles.

5:35 am

elder

Chilley, it is odd umm..

5:35 am

chiley

Very....I don't know how we will finish the grid

5:37 am

elder

i got fireworks ... anyway..and just placed the word directly into lickety's list . to satisfy myself :)

5:38 am

chiley

But the grid still shows you one word short?

5:38 am

chiley

toed

5:38 am

chiley

ack

5:38 am

elder

Chiley, go to lickety's list and place it directly there

5:39 am

chiley

I did that, but Babble isn't taking it.

5:40 am

bichon

hi and good morning

5:41 am

bichon

anyone know what the first ag 5 word is?

5:41 am

elder

No Babble will not .. but without out the word showing on Babble is still had fireworks ... so this will happen to you when you have gotten all the other words.

5:41 am

elder

Morning Bichon..

5:43 am

chiley

wow...ok...so now my G is grayed out, but that word doesn't show.....The grid shows 9 g's but Lickety shows 10...that's the problem

5:43 am

nancethefan

Happy Saturday Babblers - hugggggsssssss

5:43 am

elder

Bichon, Place the 1st vowel before the 4 letter,that you open to get through to somewhere

5:43 am

chiley

a gem is the 1st ag

5:43 am

elder

hello Nance

5:44 am

nancethefan

hey elder

5:44 am

bichon

5:44 am

elder

Chiley yes but it will not matter ..you can still finish ..i think it is an error..

5:45 am

nancethefan

gosh 53 words? i just saw that.

5:45 am

elder

Bichon, sorry ..the 4 letter word is Ga/4

5:46 am

elder

well I will say.. goodbye ... for now..

5:46 am

bichon

5:48 am

nancethefan

yay chiley

5:50 am

jwr

hi all. obviously I'm not the only unable to get a second piece of cake. Extremely frustrating since this is the first grid I've ever gotten everything without Lickety. Looked in Morewords and the word was there. Situation: word is now pasted on Clipboard - how do I get it from there to grid? (I need baby steps, please - I don't understand the process) Appreciate any help.

5:50 am

chiley

you don't need the ga7 to complete the grid. Lickety has 54 words but the grid is only 53.

5:51 am

chiley

LIckety shows 10 g words, but the grid is only showing 9

5:51 am

nancethefan

aged

5:51 am

nancethefan

oopsie - to the PB i go

5:51 am

jwr

oh wow chiley ty. ... the word IS there tho, isn't it? Or are we all hallucinating?

5:52 am

chiley

yes, it's there.

5:53 am

jwr

whew! ... while I'm at it tho, I've only used the list before but never tried putting words directly in Lickety. Is it complicated to do it that way?

5:55 am

chiley

I'm not sure. I use Lickety Expert which you can get if you join Babble. It updates the grid and Lickety each time you enter a word.

5:56 am

chiley

Little grandson is making cooing sounds. I'll go get him up and get some cuddles. Have a great day.

5:57 am

jwr

Thanks much. I'm going back to catch the last of Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes -- struggles in the baggage car of a steam railway. Ahhh. Those were the days. Nite all.

pugmama763

or plural it

7:19 am

pugmama763

silly girl

7:19 am

oldgayle

plural doesn't work

7:19 am

JBV

pug, plural is not being accepted

7:20 am

Anniebrook

according to lickety there is no ga 7

7:20 am

pugmama763

ga7--ga4+ fry or s**te + plural

7:20 am

oldgayle

i saw that discrepancy too - according to bars, I have just one g/5 left?// anyone else have this problem?

7:21 am

kim m

yes

7:21 am

pugmama763

annie have you refreshed lickety since flip?

7:21 am

Anniebrook

going to refresh now, pug

7:22 am

JBV

lickety shows ga 7/40 but plural of the 6 is not allowed

7:22 am

Anniebrook

I plural the ga 6 and it says it is not found in the dictionary

7:22 am

pugmama763

well dear I finished many hours ago & I assure you it's a plural keep trying

7:23 am

tessi

but there are no 7s on the grid

7:23 am

Anniebrook

*plurraled

7:23 am

JBV

uh-oh - seems like a glitch - plural is not being accepted and tessi's right - no 7's on the grid

7:23 am

oldgayle

I'm having the same problem as you, Anniebrook! It does not accept the plura of ga6

7:23 am

tessi

wow... weird

7:23 am

Anniebrook

I can see the ga 7 on the grid but it will not accept it

7:24 am

pugmama763

it didn't show in stats but it's in lickety

7:24 am

tessi

well on my word stats there are no 7s.

7:24 am

Anniebrook

I am going to open babble on firefox

7:24 am

pugmama763

are you guys using expert?

7:24 am

oldgayle

so I guess today it is a fireworks that was a dud....boo hoo - so rare to even come close!

7:24 am

JBV

yes, pug, expert

7:24 am

oldgayle

expert? yes

7:25 am

pugmama763

don't know folks it worked for me???

7:26 am

pugmama763

using the lickety add feature to enter words or the regular add box?

7:26 am

Anniebrook

I am on firefox and it still will not accept ga7 and the word stats do not have a 7 letter word

7:26 am

JBV

i'm using "Send Words to Clues"

7:27 am

pugmama763

click open the lickety add at top & enter words in that

7:27 am

tessi

oh my...

7:27 am

bonkler

ga7 would end with an 'x' for the plural.

7:27 am

pugmama763

it didn't show in stats

7:28 am

JBV

pug, that worked to send the word to the list, but it doesn't show up in MY WORD LIST on the babble screen

7:28 am

pugmama763

but you won't get fireworks without it

7:28 am

tessi

and there are 53 words on the grid and 54 on licketys.

7:28 am

JBV

problem - how do we fix it?

7:28 am

pugmama763

it doesn't show in my regular list either it's a clitch

7:29 am

Anniebrook

ga7 does not show up on the word list as JBV said

7:29 am

oldgayle

bonker - I thought that plural of be7 would end in an "x" also but it accepted the "s"

7:29 am

pugmama763

I thought the same gayle

7:32 am

Uniquity

Perhaps Lickety's uses a newer edition of Enable. What babble says is "the correct" is the right stuff.

7:32 am

tessi

i hate to miss this, but i have got to walk my dog. I will be back soon though!

7:33 am

pugmama763

bye tess

7:33 am

Uniquity

That last sentence of mine was a doozy. I mean to just do what babble tells you...cuz we can't make it take it.

7:33 am

LadyNatts

I'm not liking this grid

7:33 am

pugmama763

hi lady

7:33 am

JBV

that was another doozy, Uni - LOL

7:34 am

LadyNatts

hi pugmama

7:34 am

Anniebrook

hi lady and uni, tessi

7:34 am

LadyNatts

hi anniebrook

7:34 am

Ouwachita

so...how many words are there...53 or 54 ???

7:35 am

pugmama763

babble says 53 lickety has 54

7:35 am

pugmama763

the ga7 is the odd one

7:36 am

LadyNatts

hi JBV, uni

7:36 am

Uniquity

The only thing that makes sense is Lickety running on a slightly newer version of Enable than Babble. Has anyone tried asking Dr G or Lickety? I don't have any words yet and I have to go to work...hopefully we will have decided by the time I return tonight :)

7:36 am

Ouwachita

I have 53...but i don't get fireworks...am i finished?

7:37 am

Anniebrook

Ouw, same here! are we done or not?

7:37 am

JBV

I've got two left - so we'll see what happens when I get my last t word - anyone have a clue - I need the te 5/16

7:37 am

Ouwachita

add vowels

7:37 am

pugmama763

I don't know what to say Ouw, I used expert & got fire works but had all 54

7:37 am

bichon

te 5 te + sp for water a***

7:38 am

Anniebrook

On the word stats there are no seven letter words

7:38 am

pugmama763

te5--te * i***na (reptil)

7:39 am

JBV

ok, that did it, thanks for the te - but NO FIREWORKS!

7:39 am

Uneaixoise

there are 53--when you get 53, you're done . . .

7:39 am

pugmama763

ooops te+ i***na (reptile) cant type today!

7:39 am

Uneaixoise

saw an earlier discussion :-)

7:39 am

Anniebrook

hi Une!

7:39 am

JBV

nope, Une - not done, because of this problem with the plural french cake

7:40 am

Anniebrook

do I need 7 or 8 more to finish..that is the question. LOL

7:40 am

Uneaixoise

i mean, no fireworks, but you're still done

7:40 am

Uneaixoise

hey, annie :-)

7:40 am

pugmama763

did mine att 3 AM & didn't even notice the discrepency till this conversation started!

7:40 am

JBV

but my Word Stats still says "1 left"

7:41 am

Uneaixoise

it be a hot mess

7:41 am

JBV

and the g box is still showing white 8/9

7:41 am

pugmama763

and yet there is no 7 in word stats

7:42 am

JBV

oh, wait!! here's something weird - my word stats box says "1 left" but it shows I need a four-letter word!

7:42 am

Uneaixoise

yep

7:42 am

Uneaixoise

really ?!

7:43 am

JBV

so is there another ga 4 ? I have ga 4/7, then lickety's list shows I need another 4/6 after it - clue please?

7:44 am

Uneaixoise

door to the garden JBV

7:44 am

Ouwachita

JBV....easy plural

7:44 am

Anniebrook

I just finished and got fireworks but the list still does not accept the plural of ga6. But I will take it...weird

7:44 am

JBV

OH!! (no it was the scottish spelling one) BUT I have FIREWORKS!!!!

7:45 am

Uneaixoise

yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

7:45 am

pugmama763

ga4 - plural end on previos ga4/7

7:45 am

JBV

so therefore the plural french cake does not matter - it's just there to make us all crazy

7:45 am

Anniebrook

JBV...plural letter of the word before it

7:45 am

pugmama763

yahooo jbv!!!!

7:45 am

Uneaixoise

of course, ga7 SHOULD end in "x" anyway but so should be5 . . . oh, well

7:46 am

Anniebrook

JBV ...hmmm, but I am crazy to begin so now I am crazier...is that possible

7:46 am

JBV

this was a real brain-teaser today

7:46 am

Ouwachita

so...53 gets fireworks ??

7:47 am

JBV

congrats, annie - and thanks for the clues, everyone-

7:47 am

Anniebrook

I thought those two ended in an X....this is an easy one today.

7:47 am

JBV

yes, Ouwachita, 53 and I got fireworks

7:47 am

Uneaixoise

they do, annie . . .

7:47 am

Ouwachita

TY

7:47 am

Anniebrook

Ouw, I have fireworks with 53 words

7:47 am

Ouwachita

then I am finished...off to the realworld

7:47 am

Uneaixoise

congrats to the finishers!

7:47 am

JBV

there's the "real" spelling (x) and the babble spelling (s) just to confuse us

7:47 am

pugmama763

yahoo annie!

7:48 am

Anniebrook

7:55 am

pugmama763

7:57 am

pugmama763

there is in lickety not in babble

7:58 am

inge

and i got fireworks without it, so it must not be essential

7:58 am

pugmama763

NANCY

so now I have the ga 6 but have run into a wall where the 7 is concerned. any help with this? i saw the posts below but did not get any clues other than the s ending is not allowed.

8:03 am

pugmama763

plural it dear

8:04 am

pugmama763

there is a glitch of some kind it IS a plural but don't know it it only accepts it using expert

8:04 am

tessi

what is expert?

8:06 am

NANCY

yes, I don't have it either. The plural will not record

8:06 am

pugmama763

if you email lickety & request expert he will send you a program that adds your words to the babble page & licketys list simultaneously

8:07 am

inge

Pug, I got fireworks without that ga 7, the plural of taht workd ends in X which is not available, In the expert I tried the s and it did not work. YOU DONT need it to finish

8:07 am

pugmama763

they will appear side by side in one window . It's a HUGE time saver!

8:07 am

tessi

oh, i should do that...

8:08 am

pugmama763

I finished at 3 AM Inge & already had it (not my last word) so I wasn't sure

8:08 am

inge

Lickety will issue that program to yu only if you are a pro

10:52 am

nancethefan

10:52 am

nancethefan

bye nan

10:54 am

praise2him

10:55 am

praise2him

is the chat working right today?

10:56 am

praise2him

some of my messages are showing up and some aren't

10:56 am

nancethefan

10:57 am

praise2him

works for me nance

10:57 am

nancethefan

thank you

10:58 am

nancethefan

brb - baby girl needs to go out

10:59 am

praise2him

k

11:02 am

phaeton

Hello

11:02 am

phaeton

How many today?

11:03 am

nancethefan

back

11:03 am

praise2him

hi phae

11:03 am

nancethefan

53

11:03 am

praise2him

53 today

11:03 am

phaeton

didn't think it would be too many...too many vowels

11:03 am

praise2him

nance do you have the ga6 please?

11:04 am

praise2him

phae there is a discrepency between lickety's and the grid

11:05 am

nancethefan

no hon i don't

11:05 am

praise2him

lickety's list says there are 54 words

11:05 am

phaeton

what is the discrepency?

11:05 am

nenaluli

ga 6/27 is a kind of chocolate cake

11:05 am

nancethefan

there seems to be a ga 7 word that lickety's doesn't have

11:05 am

nancethefan

or i guess babble doesn't have

11:05 am

phaeton

so the 54th word isn't in the grid?

11:06 am

katrynwise

likety's shows the ga7

11:06 am

nancethefan

i heard them say this morning it is on the grid

11:07 am

Haz1558

ga6 is the French word for cake. In French a word ending in u has x to make it plural. Lickety's extra ga7 thinks that the cake can have an s to make it plural. Babble doesn't.

11:07 am

nancethefan

i don't get the choc cake clue

11:07 am

Haz1558

So, Lickety's list, using a later version of enable, differs from the Babble list.

11:08 am

Haz1558

ga6 - to the garden entrance add the two vowels at the start of the Kangaroo country.

11:08 am

Atalante

wait - is there a ga7?

11:08 am

nancethefan

glad you are here to clear that up haz

11:08 am

Haz1558

There have been allegations all day, Atalante.

11:08 am

katrynwise

ata - likety sees a ga7 but babble doesn't

11:08 am

Atalante

gosh. outrageous

11:08 am

Haz1558

We need a rolling tape at the top saying 'No ga7'

11:09 am

nancethefan

lol

11:09 am

katrynwise

good idea Haz...

11:09 am

Haz1558

Occasionally Lickety's list and babble list aren't exactly the same because Lickety uses a different version of enable. He used to change the list when there was a discrepancy but he may be too busy.

11:10 am

SharonRA

11:11 am

phaeton

ok, i understand...no ga7 in the grid

11:11 am

Haz1558

Correct.

11:11 am

nancethefan

clue of he 6/33 anyone?

11:11 am

Haz1558

There are no seven letter words at all.

11:11 am

praise2him

past tense of the 4/8

11:12 am

Atalante

none at all? what about the one in lickety?

11:12 am

nancethefan

thank you praise

11:12 am

Haz1558

Now you're just stirring.

11:12 am

11:12 am

nancethefan

11:12 am

praise2him

11:13 am

Atalante

11:13 am

Haz1558

I'm laughing. This has caused more discussion than tje ratification of the Lisbon Treaty.

11:13 am

nancethefan

SharonRA

11:17 am

Haz1558

Yes! The Irish have rejected it - just to be stubborn, I reckon.

11:17 am

Atalante

I reckon too. To laugh at europe

11:17 am

Haz1558

It's revenge for Eurovision.

11:17 am

Atalante

its very funny

11:18 am

Haz1558

They've taken the European money, but it doesn't mean they've been bought...

11:18 am

Atalante

good for them!

11:19 am

Haz1558

Why let the politicians have things all their own way all the time?

11:20 am

Haz1558

Right, feeding time for the plants. Bye for now!

11:20 am

Atalante

absolutely. and wreck a treaty involved *millions* throughout europe at the same time, double bonus

11:20 am

Haz1558

If they won't let the turkey sing in Eurovision....

11:21 am

Atalante

lmao yes

11:21 am

1:34 pm

rururocks

1:35 pm

SeanS

maybe... it gave them to me for a little while, but i guess the "free trial" is over and it doesn't do them anymore

1:35 pm

rururocks

I don't know how it works really.

1:35 pm

SeanS

well, i'm off, happy babbling all

1:36 pm

gapeach1066@yaho

SeanS, some have said that ga7 is the pl. for ga6. So I don't know who to ask about what to do...maybe just ask anyone in general.

1:36 pm

SeanS

yeah, that is a word, but babble won't take it

1:36 pm

rururocks

I just wanted to make sure - you were occupied rather than occupying.

2:02 pm

2:02 pm

we have missed you dear monty

2:03 pm

Haz1558

Yes, we don't need to hear any gory details, hope you're feeling better.

2:03 pm

The great leader would have been written in sarcastic font if it had been made available to us.

2:03 pm

montreal13

awww that's nice of you FM - and tx hazel :-)

2:04 pm

Haz1558

Have you heard about the sarcastic font?

2:04 pm

montreal13

gotchya hazel (re leader)

2:04 pm

FMitch

I love the concept of a sarcastic font, leads to all sorts of silly ideas.

2:04 pm

Haz1558

That's not like us - silly ideas, I mean.

2:04 pm

Atalante

we should use <s> and </s>

2:05 pm

montreal13

got up at 5:45 this am and promptly found 45 words - silly ideas from you gals ?? never...

2:05 pm

Haz1558

At the start of each sarcastic sentence, you mean, Atalante?

2:05 pm

FMitch

Oops sorry, creative, witty and ingenious ideas

2:05 pm

Atalante

yep. or something

2:05 pm

deef

any clue for su/5?

2:06 pm

Haz1558

Like when the Spanish put upside down question marks at the start of a sentence to let you know in advance?

2:06 pm

FMitch

Its a ducky little grid today monty, v easy for a small one.

2:06 pm

montreal13

2:08 pm

ChloeKat

fa6/30?

2:08 pm

Atalante

yes ... but actually thats too obvious

2:08 pm

Haz1558

Stick around, Fmitch, here is where you learn things you didn't know needed learning. They do it with exclamation marks as well.

2:08 pm

montreal13

fa6 - made bigger

2:09 pm

Haz1558

I've had an awful thought. The chat log, with enthusiastic Spanish people would be LITTERED with exclamation marks. Upside down and right way up.

2:09 pm

FMitch

fa6 - think Prodigal Son

2:09 pm

Atalante

how do we type the upside question mark?

2:09 pm

FMitch

Turn your keyboard round of course

oops that didn't work. Hi JBV

It works - when you tilt your head the question mark definitely turns upside down.

2:11 pm

my keyboard won't do it :(

2:11 pm

nope hazel - just ascii code but somehow, JBV's and mine are not the same ???

Thats cos we are UK English not US English I bet

2:12 pm

2:32 pm

JillF

of course itsonme! thank you for the de...still working the other

2:32 pm

Judi

Are we talking about the same puzzle? The word stats say zero 7's.

2:33 pm

BzznBea

Lickety has a ga7, Judi.

2:33 pm

FMitch

There is no 7. Babble says no 7 ergo there isn't one. Licketys list is wrong

2:33 pm

JillF

thank you, fireworks now i can go cook!

2:33 pm

Haz1558

It's okay, Judi. There has been a lot of discussion about a discrepancy today between babble and Lickety's list. Babble wins the debate.

2:33 pm

JillF

no 7s, that is what i thought

2:34 pm

Haz1558

Congratulations Jill.

2:34 pm

nDanLia

the ga7 would be pl for ga6, but actual pl uses X, the S is a poor colloquial English, and not in this dictionary. Lickety's list must use another dict.

2:34 pm

Atalante

there's a ga7?

2:34 pm

periwinkle

HI FM you used one of my favorite words: ergo

2:34 pm
