Hi ruby and Sally
3:25 am
Sally-catlover

Hi FM. Thought tea was your thing?
3:25 am
rubyfoo

I'm sure you have all my words already. They are tinies! Hello FM, more coffee would be welcome, that's for sure.
3:25 am
FMitch

Tea is def my thing but I think ruby needs coffee :)
3:26 am
FMitch

I foresee another fireworks day for ruby (fingers crossed)
3:26 am
Sally-catlover

Well I only have two from that top R. Perhaps you could put the third one in accidentally!
3:26 am
rubyfoo

FM is right, tea only in the afternoon, double expressos in the morning
3:27 am
rubyfoo

only if my friend FM helps me later -- lol!
3:27 am
FMitch

3:28 am
Sally-catlover

Well, what do you know. Tried a non-word and it worked.
3:28 am
rubyfoo

I have so much to do, all of it involving paperwork, that I don't know where to begin
3:28 am
FMitch

Sally, really enjoyed looking at your website the other day, that is some house you have there.
3:30 am
Sally-catlover

Oh thank you FM. Must update the garden pics some time, especially the pond which I have been clearing out :-( Filthy job and hard work.. It's a lovely house to live in and we can't quite believe we live here!
3:31 am
FMitch

a dream abode :)
3:32 am
FMitch

well I shall love and leave you, am going to get the shopping done early and swing by the garden centre on the way back as have more seeds to plant and money to burn *grin*
Happy Babbling.
3:33 am
Sally-catlover

Not bad for the site of the brickyard spoil, eh!
3:33 am
Sally-catlover

Have fun FM.
3:33 am
rubyfoo

how early can lilacs be planted, do you know? Does frost have to be totally over?
3:34 am
Sally-catlover

Don't have any lilacs ruby, so can't say. Do you have a good gardening book? Would have thought you need the soil to warm up a bit first.
3:34 am
FMitch

Try google *poof*
3:36 am
rubyfoo

see you later
3:36 am
rubyfoo

((sally))
3:37 am

herinfernallady

hi
4:56 am
rubyfoo

hi lady, back for a little while
4:56 am
rubyfoo

I still have 17 words left, not so quick and easy for me!
4:57 am
herinfernallady

I just started. Doing a cryptic crossword and eating dinner at the same time
4:58 am
rubyfoo

I do regular crosswords and acrostics and play lots of scrabble, but have never been able to figure out crypstics. The clues are too oblique for me; I'm very literal-minded
4:59 am
herinfernallady

Some are very very hard and If i can't get 1 clue I don't bother
5:00 am
rubyfoo

but these are a lot of fun for me, even though I don't finish. I've stopped looking at my rankings, so don't mind any more
5:01 am
herinfernallady

I don't have time these days to worry about stats
5:02 am
rubyfoo

I wish I could say I was that busy. Just have endless paperwork hanging over my head....
5:03 am
herinfernallady

I am so tired at the moment. too much coffee
5:04 am
rubyfoo

how much sleep do you get?
5:05 am
herinfernallady

not enough
5:06 am
herinfernallady

These next two weeks is going to busy
5:06 am
rubyfoo

that's always a problem
5:06 am
herinfernallady

I do put a limit though on work
5:08 am
rubyfoo

did you get the 7?
5:09 am
rubyfoo

all I'm good at are the phantom words!
5:09 am
FMitch

Back from shoping and the garden centre, managed not to spend a furtune.
5:09 am
herinfernallady

No.
5:09 am
rubyfoo

very good
5:09 am
rubyfoo

fm, do you have the 7?
5:09 am
herinfernallady

FM is a Furtune what you spend when you have pets?
5:10 am
rubyfoo

or many warm coats?
5:10 am
rubyfoo

or singing pets?
5:10 am
FMitch

and got 2 packs of seeds free

LOL herin yes i think you are right :) me and my toypos!
5:10 am
FMitch

still not started the grid ruby
5:11 am
rubyfoo

what discipline!
5:11 am
FMitch

gah I can't even spell tyoo correctly!
5:11 am
herinfernallady

Isn't that what Ata spends when she gets furniture?
5:12 am
herinfernallady

arr stupid cryptic crosswords and their American clues
5:12 am
rubyfoo

I thought it was a special mixed breed of dog!
5:12 am
FMitch

you are on a roll herin!
5:12 am
rubyfoo

I thought cryptics only had British clues
5:13 am
rubyfoo

I want to make sedge and fudge and suggest
5:14 am
FMitch

nice phantoms ruby, I am going to go and put the kettle on for morning coffee so will be bak in a bit.
5:15 am
rubyfoo

then I'll see you after lunch (out, thank God)
5:16 am
herinfernallady

No. ONe of the clues was Residue left by glacier or in a state in America. Like i have a clue what teh States cities are
5:16 am
rubyfoo

hahah, herin
5:16 am
rubyfoo

moraine? maine?
5:17 am
herinfernallady

Moraine. It is a city of Ohio. err. like I know that
5:17 am
rubyfoo

marion?
5:18 am
rubyfoo

loraine?
5:18 am
herinfernallady

I looked it up. It is Moraine.
5:18 am
rubyfoo

growing up I lived downhill from a moraine, where the glacier had stopped. LOL
5:19 am
rubyfoo

I don't think you had glaciers in Australia...
5:19 am
herinfernallady

I knew that Moraine was the glacial leftover but I had no idea that it was a town
5:19 am
rubyfoo

nor did I
5:19 am
rubyfoo

only been through Ohio, never stayed there although Cleveland has the rock and roll museum!
5:20 am
Haz1558

Maine is the state, or is placed within it = moraine, the glacial residue.
5:20 am
herinfernallady

See my silly factor. O
5:20 am
rubyfoo

hello haz
5:20 am
Haz1558

Good morning/evening all.
5:20 am
rubyfoo

but herin found a city in Ohio by that name, too funny
5:20 am
herinfernallady

Hi Haz. No Moraine is a city in Ohio.
5:21 am
rubyfoo

glaciers in the UK?
5:21 am
Haz1558

Look at the clue. Residue left by a glacier or in a state in America.
5:21 am
herinfernallady

But that is like me asking anyone what is a suburb of the state next to them. There is now way you could have that much in your head
5:22 am
rubyfoo

true true
5:22 am
FMitch

Morning Haz and the glittery one :)
5:22 am
Haz1558

The fact that there is a city in Ohio with that name isn't really solving the clue given. But now we know that it exists.
5:22 am
Haz1558

Good morning FM.
5:22 am
rubyfoo

but who would want to go there?
5:22 am
FMitch

Hope your day is a sunny one?
5:23 am
herinfernallady

True. Maybe it is designed for many countries. Or maybe the cryptic person is a nut
5:23 am
Haz1558

It's bound to have attractions -all that glacial residue is bound to be worthy of note.
5:23 am
rubyfoo

have you ever tried to produce a crossword puzzle?
5:23 am
Haz1558

It's sunny so far, pretty windy, but forecast isn't good for the end of the week, unfortunately.
5:23 am
FMitch

Im sure Ata could comment on the glacial aspects.
5:23 am
rubyfoo

maybe if you're looking for fossils
5:24 am
rubyfoo

believe it or not, we need rain!
5:24 am
FMitch

cait was saying the same thing ruby, they are very dry in Wales right now.
5:24 am
herinfernallady

Ruby I think these cryptic people are just a little not right
5:25 am
rubyfoo

I had better do something about my face or they'll run screaming out of the restaurant! see you later
5:25 am
FMitch

Bye ruby have a nice lunch.
5:25 am

I am so pale and wrinkled, look like I've been dead a while but just don't know it!
5:26 am

4:07 pm

I don't think it's fair for to be docked points for going into administration. Points should be based on your performance on the pitch.
4:10 pm
mo

hi omarr .... I think I will stay out of this one ..... being that I dont know what you mean. lol!! :-)
4:12 pm

I spent the day driving to Richmond and back to raise money with no success :-( times are still hard
6:49 pm
Dorens

what's scary is that I may be one of them ... we need to wait and see, but if our budget isn't passed, the next round of cuts might mean no guidance counselors in the district
6:50 pm
jmcnrick

wow that is scary
6:51 pm
Dorens

sorry bout that jmc. money is certainly tight. i just didn't think the governor would cut 820 million$$ in state aid to the schools... cutting off the nose, etc
6:51 pm
jmcnrick

i agree dorens that just leads to spending more on health and the "justice" system
6:52 pm

my mother taught 46 (i think) years and my aunt 53 (I know) so I am a big supporter of schools

Hey du5/16! Here another clues story.Corey Haim is the lates Hollywood tragedy. Like many young la 4/5 in Hollywood, he made a big oo4/5 and over dosed on drugs. Unfortunately, he was a du4/7 who ad5/14ed the habit of drug use.I wonder if he gr5/20ed money to pay for drugs.Guess when he took drugs it hit the sp4/5 & made him feel good.His drug use didn't seem to put a ri 4/7 between him and his family & friends. They always st5/12 up for him.He also never seemed to st 4/4 up any trouble. In the end, he could not st 4/5 using drugs and it la4/5ed him in a cemetary.My story of clues st 5/12 here. I hope this helped those not finished yet. Good luck to all finishing the puzzle!

flosey -- you'll get a giggle out of this -- you've seen the For Sale sign on the Garry Oaks winery? Well, grandson's gf decided they should move here and buy it -- they don't have 2 cents to rub together. Now she's sugesting their friends chip in a few bucks to add to her $80. It was a running joke the whole time they were here and seems to be continuing
