the la is leaving a hole. . .
12:58 am

an8 is a plural an7
12:59 am

12:59 am

my an7 is a verb and uses the S anyway!
12:59 am

Good morning, FM.
2:46 am
Atalante

2:46 am
FMitch

Ata!!!!!!!!!!!
2:46 am
Haz1558

I'd probably support Murray if he were playing against anyone except Federer.
2:46 am
Haz1558

Hello Ata!
2:46 am
FMitch

I had a sleep in this morning, didn't get up til 7.45, bliss.
2:46 am
Atalante

I went past The Glen yesterday, Fi ....
2:47 am
FMitch

oooh
2:47 am
Andree

well i'm hoping murray wins, it would be such a buzz for him and wonderful as federer is he has to lose sometime
2:48 am
Atalante

on the way to The Thatch :)
2:48 am
FMitch

Did you wave?
2:48 am
Atalante

yes!
2:48 am
Andree

and hi fmitch, haz and ata
2:48 am
FMitch

lol
2:48 am
FMitch

Hello Andree
2:49 am
Atalante

murray can certainly beat Fed, but whether he can do it in a competitive environment is another matter
2:49 am
Haz1558

He has a good record against him, just not in Grand Slam finals.
2:50 am
Atalante

yes!
2:50 am
Haz1558

As long as they both do themselves justice, I'll be happy.
2:50 am
FMitch

Would like Murray to win
2:50 am
Atalante

wish they ween't both wearing blue
2:51 am
Haz1558

Yes, especially when the court is blue as well.
2:51 am
Atalante

yes!!
2:52 am
FMitch

How is C doing Ata?
2:52 am
Atalante

good! she was actually pleasant to be with, which makes a change _
2:53 am
FMitch

good to hear that.
2:55 am
Atalante

yes, it made quite a nice change. except I ate too much chocolate and now I feel fat
2:56 am
Flask1

Good morning all tennis fans!
2:56 am
Haz1558

Good morning, Flask. Have you got your face painted blue?
2:56 am
FMitch

Morning Flask
2:57 am
Atalante

hi flask
2:58 am
ursh

2:58 am
Andree

hi flask, should be a great game
2:58 am
Andree

so far so good
2:58 am
Flask1

Eh, no Haz!......but a wee roar has escaped my mouth!!!..lol
2:59 am
Flask1

yes....so far so good!
2:59 am
Haz1558

It's good that they're broadcasting it live and that it's not on at a silly time through the night for us.
3:00 am
Andree

what time is it there
3:00 am
Atalante

9am
3:00 am
Flask1

I Know, very thoughtful!
3:01 am
Flask1

exactly 12 hrs earlier
3:01 am
Atalante

I have it in a little window next to my babble
3:01 am
Flask1

9 pm you mean!
3:01 am
Atalante

last time I looked it was morning here ...
3:03 am
FMitch

Definitely morning here and -5 but bright and sunny.
3:03 am
Atalante

maybe Scotland is in a time warp!
3:03 am
FMitch

:)
3:04 am
Andree

i am confused which is not unusual
3:04 am
Haz1558

It's morning in Scotland, evening in Australia.
3:04 am
Haz1558

And Flask is so excited, time means nothing.
3:05 am
Andree

its sunday evening, 8.04pm
3:05 am
FMitch

We can always rely on Haz to bring order back to a situation.
3:05 am
FMitch

so Andree is 11 hours ahead of us.
3:05 am
Haz1558

I am the voice of reason.
3:06 am
FMitch

well most of the time Haz but only if you keep taking the pills.
3:06 am
Haz1558

This is true.
3:07 am
FMitch

Totally irrelevant question but how is the grid today?
3:08 am
Atalante

grid?
3:08 am
Haz1558

It's heavily skewed towards the letter c.
3:08 am
gremlinn

a bit harder than usual
3:08 am
Atalante

with a phantom of colcannon
3:08 am
FMitch

Hi gremlinn
3:08 am
gremlinn

hi
3:09 am
gremlinn

I have word hints in my profile if anyone needs them
3:09 am
Haz1558

Hello, gremlinn. You mean you haven't finished or that it took you longer than 3 minutes?
3:09 am
Andree

thx gremlin, i take it you finished ages ago as usual
3:09 am
Haz1558

First question answered....
3:09 am
gremlinn

It took about 90 minutes
3:09 am
rubyfoo

gd morning everybody -- coldest morning so far but bright and sunny
3:09 am
Andree

hi ruby
3:10 am
Atalante

hi ruby! the whole breed of chows are in my bad books!!
3:10 am
rubyfoo

what happened?
3:10 am
Haz1558

Good morning, ruby.
3:10 am
gremlinn

I am usually here and working hard right when the new puzzle is out
3:10 am
FMitch

Was making enquiries yesterday as to how much a taxi would cost from my Mums hour to mine (thinking about Mothers Day in March) - to cover 14 miles will cost £35!
3:10 am
rubyfoo

tank
3:10 am
rubyfoo

thank
3:10 am
FMitch

Morning ruby
3:10 am
Atalante

goodness!
3:11 am
rubyfoo

oh, so sorry, too wired up on coffee, need some calming drugs in the pb!!!
3:11 am
Haz1558

Is this taxi gold-plated?
3:11 am
Haz1558

Is Prince Charles driving?
3:11 am
FMitch

I forgot to ask I was so gob smacked.
3:11 am
Haz1558

Is vintage champagne on tap?
3:11 am
FMitch

and that is just one way, not a round trip.
3:11 am
Haz1558

You should try Easyjet, FM.
3:12 am
FMitch

LOL!
3:12 am
FMitch

perhaps a helicoper would be cheaper
3:12 am
Haz1558

That's a pretty ridiculous price, isn't it?
3:13 am
FMitch

It seems rediculous but then again I haven't used a taxi in years so who knows.
3:13 am
Haz1558

Phone..
3:14 am
FMitch

will contact a couple more co's to get a price comparison.
3:14 am
Andree

the are pretty pricey here too especially from the airport with lots of extra taxes
3:15 am
FMitch

oh yes Andree airport taxis you can pretty much double what youwould usually pay.
3:16 am
Atalante

urf, so tired
3:16 am
KatieMcG

from mum's to ours which is 3 miles the taxi is about £6 so I'm not sure it is that bad but you should be able to haggle as you are booking it in advance
3:17 am
Atalante

from here to Whitstable is about £15 which is 8-9 miles
3:17 am
FMitch

mmm good point Katie and Good morning :)
3:18 am
KatieMcG

morning all
3:18 am
Haz1558

Hello, Katie.
3:19 am
Atalante

3:20 am
rubyfoo

3:20 am
Andree

hi katie
3:20 am
rubyfoo

what happened with the chows, ata?
3:20 am
Atalante

bella bit hobbit! she didn't break the skin but left a bruise!
3:21 am
rubyfoo

that's terrible but could have been much worse. chows have jaws of death when they want
3:21 am
rubyfoo

not mine, of course, lol
3:21 am
KatieMcG

one was sick and had an upset tummy yesterday so none of them are near as I want to check which one was poorly!!
3:22 am
Atalante

3:22 am
Atalante

awwwww
3:22 am
rubyfoo

3:23 am
FMitch

Back in a mo, putting the kettle on and yes Ata will make tea for you and coffee for those that want it :)
3:23 am
rubyfoo

yes pls, fm, with milk
3:23 am
Atalante

Bells is in season and apparently doesn't appreciate other female dogs in her domain right now
3:23 am
Atalante

yay! :)
3:24 am
rubyfoo

aaah, that explains it
3:24 am
Haz1558

What age is Bella?
3:25 am
Andree

ata do you have 2 dogs
3:25 am
Atalante

3:25 am
Atalante

no, Andree, Bella is my friend's chow
3:26 am
Andree

okay
3:26 am
Atalante

oh good, Andy Murray has changed to a white top
3:27 am
Andree

3:27 am
Haz1558

I texted him.
3:27 am
rubyfoo

good job, haz!
3:28 am
Haz1558

PHone...
3:29 am
Andree

probably the prime minister needing advice
3:29 am
Atalante

Obama maybe
3:29 am
Andree

or george, sick of the italian chick
3:29 am
rubyfoo

he needs all the help he can get!
3:30 am
Andree

don't they all
3:30 am
Haz1558

None of those suggestions. A farmer with a sick cow.
3:30 am
Atalante

awww poor cow
3:31 am
Haz1558

I know. But veterinary medicine will pull her through!
3:31 am
Atalante

oops nearly said that ha7 is a phantom
3:32 am
Haz1558

And it's a plural for some reason.
3:32 am
FMitch

Have to smile, was in the garden whilst waiting for the kettle to boil and the bell ringergers at the church aren't the greatest in the wolrd but there is a joy in hearing the wonderful cacophany none the less.

Tea and coffe are served in the PB by the way.
3:32 am
Atalante

is the intrepid mr Haz off to visit her?
3:32 am
Haz1558

No, just medicine needed.
3:33 am
gremlinn

Ata: I did say it was a phantom by mistake earlier (I was looking at the wrong AL and thought the H didn't connect)
3:34 am
FMitch

ringergers? where did that come from, I swear this keyboard has a mind of it's own!
3:34 am
Atalante

glad it's not just me :) I couldn't see where the Y connected lol
3:35 am
Haz1558

Ringergers. It's bound to be some sort of interesting malady.
3:35 am
rubyfoo

hard, I thought it was a phantom, too
3:35 am
Atalante

ringergivitis
3:35 am
Haz1558

Women who long for marriage are Ringurgers.
3:36 am
FMitch

perhaps that why they can't quite ring in sequence.
3:36 am
rubyfoo

we could get you a job at our loval church, fm, they haven't a clue!
3:36 am
rubyfoo

they even make bells here in the valley, but the local ones all sound cracked
3:36 am
gremlinn

married babies are ringerbers
3:37 am
Haz1558

Would Ringergers combine Tinnitus with Asperger's?
3:38 am
FMitch

LOL!
3:38 am
Atalante

sounds likely
3:38 am
KatieMcG

crumble is sulking now have to work out if it's because she is poorly or just stropy

3:41 am

3:41 am

3:43 am
Atalante

3:43 am
KatieMcG

good luck with that then!
3:44 am
rubyfoo

unfortunately, I have a very cold heart and when my husband had a painless heart attack and couldn't breath, I thought he was overreacting to an allergy attack and I said "Get a grip!" I'll live with that forever!
3:44 am
KatieMcG

Better go and get ready for church, see you all later
3:44 am
Haz1558

Right, must be practical and get me to the kitchen.
3:44 am
Atalante

I'd be the same, ruby!
3:44 am
rubyfoo

Fortunately, he survived my callousness!
3:44 am
FMitch

Hello everyone!

hi Brookie
4:00 am
Andree

hi brookie
4:00 am
Brookie

Hi lynxxx and andree. How are you today?
4:01 am
lynxxx

Much better after cool change came thru!
4:02 am
Andree

i am fine
4:02 am
Brookie

Has it been hot the last couple days? The reports I had been getting in Melbourne were "perfect weather". Good to hear you're both fine.
4:03 am
lynxxx

Just today - got up to 37c - a bit too much
4:03 am
Brookie

Wow! It
4:03 am

4:05 am

My youngest son hasn't woken up yet, so I'm enjoying solo babble time. :-)
4:06 am
Andree

wow thats hot lyn, we have had a stiff breeze all day
4:06 am
lynxxx

He's getting better then...what time is it now?
4:06 am
Brookie

It's 5 a.m. here.
4:07 am
Brookie

What's the weather difference, in general, between Melbourne and Sydney?
4:07 am
Andree

if murray doesn't pick up his game this match will be over
4:08 am
Andree

sydney is much more temperate, lynxx might not agree, its never as hot or as cold
4:09 am
Andree

ofcourse we get our heat waves too
4:09 am
lynxxx

Sydney has ocean breezes whereas Melbourne is in a large bay. We also get Sydneys leftover weather...it come in from ocean into NSW and goes anticlockwise overland...so we are last cab off the rank as far as rainfall goes
4:09 am
Brookie

Just wondering. My friend in Melbourne reports that the weather is perfect all the time there.
4:09 am
BabbleRabble

Pretty nice day: -3 °F (-19 °C) Wind Chill: -18 °F (-28 °C

4:11 am
Brookie

Of course, BR, there won't be any ants at our picnic, because they'd be too sensible to be outdoors!
4:11 am
BabbleRabble

Hooray??? Mur5ray may be a grumpy Scot but he is British!!
5:24 am
Andree

a great game and the best man won
5:24 am
Haz1558

They say he's not that grumpy at all. But Federer is a wonderful tennis player.
5:25 am
Andree

is he grumpy
5:26 am
Haz1558

He gives the impression of grumpiness because he speaks in such a monotonous way, but that's not the real him, apparently.
5:26 am
Deeha

Let us say he isnt exactly gracious and he has taken a lot of stick for it - at least he tries to smile occassionly now!!
5:26 am
Haz1558

Grumpy or not, he (Murray) is still a brilliant player as well.
5:27 am

Hi red!
6:34 am
oodleberry

hi red
6:34 am
redturtlehead

I have been wanting a grid over 200, Dr God doesn't seem to want to oblige.
6:36 am
hurshy

he doesn't control it. it's random, the computer just generates them.
6:37 am
redturtlehead

I know Hurshy, but I always like to think of him as in control of it....
6:37 am
hurshy

oh dear, red, you're a walking argument for atheism.
6:38 am
redturtlehead

perhaps. I'm not a good Atheist!
6:39 am
hurshy

so, you are an atheist? and what defines a good one?
6:39 am
redturtlehead

No I am not an Atheist, which I think makes me a bad atheist! I am a regular Christian, participating right now in the 64 days of non violence. It's Awesome!
6:40 am
hurshy

well in that case, you should certainly try to avoid being a walking argument for atheism. :)
6:40 am
redturtlehead

I would think so.
6:40 am
hurshy

(are you normally very violent?)
6:41 am
redturtlehead

No Not really, Im every day a Quaker. It's the season of Non violence, for some of us, we have 64 days of meditation and action.
6:42 am
hurshy

it is just a funny name - like, the rest of the year, you can be violent, but for these 64 days...
6:42 am
redturtlehead

I always wonder about the random number 64...but...
6:42 am
redturtlehead

I agree. the rest of the year, do we have a season of Violence?
6:43 am
hurshy

64 is square, which is lovely, but it doesn't seem to have any biblical significance, i agree.
6:43 am
redturtlehead

I thought halon was a gas. If it like Freon a brand?
6:43 am
hurshy

halon is not a gas that i know of.
6:44 am
oodleberry

are you thinking of halogen red?
6:44 am
redturtlehead

Oh no... must go goole it and find out if it is anything.
6:44 am
TheLegend

halon is a fire extinguishing agent
6:45 am
redturtlehead

No No Halon. I googled it, the reason I know it is that it is a type of abbreviation fo a halide fire extinguisher.
6:45 am
redturtlehead

As Legend says!
6:45 am
redturtlehead

Hi Legend.
6:45 am
TheLegend

hi red
6:45 am
TheLegend

its used mostly on aircraft...to put out engine fires
6:46 am
redturtlehead

We have it in some parts of the hospital. I guess all that preparation for the JACHO inspection wore off on me.
6:48 am
redturtlehead

Hurshy, how are you ? And Oodle, how goes it in the frozen North?
6:48 am
hurshy

red, i have googled your 64 days in the meantime. it wasn't chosen for the number, but because jan 30 is the day ghandi was assassinated, and april 4 is the day MLK was assassinated, and in 1998 it was the 30th anniv. of one and the 50th of the other and ghandi's daughter or granddaughter suggested creating this "season" based on those dates.
6:48 am
hurshy

i'm fine red, got my mitty kitty all cuddled up with me
6:48 am
redturtlehead

Hurshy, you are amazing. You would think I would have noticed that.
6:48 am
redturtlehead

I have had too many houseguests and life changes.
6:48 am
redturtlehead

THanks!!!
6:49 am
redturtlehead

oh no, is that PB for me?
6:49 am
hurshy

the ability to google isn't that amazing :)
6:49 am
redturtlehead

No, its that you bothered.
6:50 am
TheLegend

the list is NOT up in babanon...:(
6:50 am
hurshy

i don't believe in the PB, so if nobody else wants to enforce it, you're off the hook.
6:50 am
oodleberry

yeah!!! hurshy
6:51 am
hurshy

i don't often get a yeah!!!
i'm having a real good day so far i guess
6:51 am
oodleberry

i am with you hurshy on the PB and red you are safe
6:52 am
redturtlehead

sometimes i like the food in there....
6:54 am
oodleberry

think I asked about your name before hurshy but where is it from...I don,t buy hershey candy anymore since they moved the one and only hershey canadian factory to mexico.
6:54 am
oodleberry

think you said it was german?
6:54 am
hurshy

in the good old days, there was a button you had to click to enter your chat, so there was much less of the whole entering-a-word-in-chat-because-you-fo
rgot-to-move-your-cursor. we complained to doc when the new format was introduced, but he said people would get used to it. they did not. therefore i blame the system for those types of incidents and don't want to lock up the individual drug user, to analogize. and in those good old days, if someone used a word in conversation, we just said, red said a woooooooord, and that was that. and if it was a very common word like THAT, my feeling was that it should be exempt anyway.
6:55 am
hurshy

yes, it's related to my married name, which is germanic.
6:56 am
oodleberry

oh ok i amember now :D
6:56 am
hurshy

hershey chocolate isn't very good anyway, so i have never really been a major consumer of it.
6:56 am
redturtlehead

I think it allows for a lot of fun if people take it the right way..
6:56 am
oodleberry

I will sleep well tonight knowing that hurshey :D
6:57 am
oodleberry

they use wax
6:57 am
hurshy

well that explains it
6:57 am
oodleberry

red, it is not fun for me, more frustrating
6:57 am
hurshy

we had fun before. we just had a jacuzzi filled with champagne instead of a penalty box.
6:58 am
redturtlehead

Well, the PB as I see it now has lots of snacks, and coffee, and cabana boys and dancing girls...
6:58 am
oodleberry

it is an honest mistake and should be dealt as such
6:58 am
KatieMcG

still has the jacuzzi and champs as well
6:59 am
oodleberry

never heard of the jacuzzi
6:59 am
hurshy

and if doc would just GIVE US BACK THE BUTTON we wouldn't HAVE so many honest mistakes!
6:59 am
Anniebrook

I believe the jacuzzi was moved into the PB
6:59 am
redturtlehead

oh yes and stid put a bed in there for me some time back.
7:00 am
KatieMcG

usually bacon sandwiches as well
7:00 am
Anniebrook

FM has a great picture of the PB
7:00 am
redturtlehead

she does.
7:01 am
redturtlehead

I guess I just don't see it as punishment at all, which is why I am not frustrated, alsi the occasional dropped word can be nice...
7:01 am
KatieMcG

couldn't agree more red
7:01 am
oodleberry

think I made enemies by reacting so negatively to the PB
7:02 am
hurshy

i really really don't like it when a long but not obscure word is accidentally typed into the chat because someone didn't move the cursor. some of us would like to actually find those words.
7:02 am
KatieMcG

not at all oodle, just trying to show that it can be taken as fun, but won't ever put you in there as you don't like it
7:02 am
Anniebrook

PB as punishment? when you can get chocolate and champagne? Oodle is taking the PB seriously I think?
7:02 am
oodleberry

well someone doesn't acknowledge me anymore
7:02 am
redturtlehead

But it is usually some little piddling 4 letter thing..
7:03 am
Mudd

an 7,8 clue please
7:03 am
KatieMcG

is it just me finding this one a pig today?
7:03 am
hurshy

7:05 am
Sally-catlover

My phantom: unclean. Does that say something about me?
7:05 am
hurshy

that you've read the bible a lot?
7:05 am
KatieMcG

i have on** got 58 and it has been a long hard slog!
7:05 am

7:06 am
hurshy

my phantom is nuance
7:06 am
redturtlehead

Mudd, I do not have the other one, so I can not give you another clue.
7:06 am
Sally-catlover

an + vowel + could be spelling of not dark
7:06 am
hurshy

same here
7:06 am
redturtlehead

Very sorry.
7:06 am
KatieMcG

whereas I am obsessed with getting 'uncle
7:07 am
KatieMcG

ty sally
7:08 am
hurshy

cry uncle! and let slip the dogs of war
7:08 am
Sally-catlover

np
7:08 am
hurshy

no, that makes no sense. i must rephrase the latter bit too.
7:08 am
hurshy

cry uncle! and restrain the dogs of war
7:08 am
Sally-catlover

So now we have the nuance of an unclean uncle
7:09 am
redturtlehead

Oooh, the "Creepy uncle?"

one time while we lived at a boarding school, a falconer came with various birds of prey to show the students. he did the demonstrations right in front of our house so me and the cats watched. the students then saw us watching and asked who would win in a cat vs bird-of-prey fight.

I had a few robins right before this cold/snow front hit but right now it's mostly cardinals in the backyard and peckerwoods/itty bitty birds in front
7:44 am
kje

the birds would def win
7:45 am
kje

cardinals are gorgeous!
7:45 am
hurshy

yeah, the guy said that it would be tough to call, which is why the birds wouldn't attack a cat - they MIGHT win, but the cat would certainly do it some damage in the process.
7:45 am

i've seen mockingbirds chasing away cats in my front yard!

Moravian spice cookies are a traditional kind of cookie that originated in the Colonial American communities of the Moravian Church. The blend of spices and molasses, rolled paper thin, has a reputation as the "World's Thinnest Cookie." They are related to German Lebkuchen; original recipes can be traced back to the 1700's.

The cookie is especially popular around, and usually associated with, Christmas in communities with a strong Moravian background such as Winston-Salem, North Carolina and Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, which still maintain the two largest Moravian communities in the United States. Although there are a few bakeries that still roll and cut the cookies by hand, some now use a mechanized process for making the cookies in order to meet the demand. While this does not affect the taste, the machine-made cookies have been criticized for not being as thin as their handmade counterparts.

While the spice recipe is the most traditional and well-known of the Moravian cookies, other versions have appeared over the years, including sugar, lemon, black walnut, and chocolate varieties.
