da + 1st person pronoun + what we spend (dollars and cents) minus the sometimes vowel + the plural consonant

(((ruby))) how are you?
4:08 am
rubyfoo

doing much better. new pup is partly paid for, just awaiting where and when she'll be flying in....
4:11 am
rbud

Ruffi (sp?) can't be too old yet, right? will it be like having two pups, almost?
4:11 am
rubyfoo

Rufie is one (since Dec) and Raffie will be about 9 wks when she arrives. It should be a circus arounds here
4:12 am
rubyfoo

we really need some smiles!
4:13 am
rbud

yes, it should be lots of fun, they'll liven things up playing together!
4:14 am
rubyfoo

and I am hoping Rufie will not be too rough. I think she's fairly tough, has been playing outside (!!) with her brothers
4:14 am
rubyfoo

we've never gotten a puppy younger than 3 months before
4:16 am
rbud

she'll probably whip him into line as soon as she's big enough.
4:16 am
rubyfoo

we'll see.... just smiling, thinking about it
4:18 am

not close to half but nbt and nbs
4:20 am

I won't get far, going back to bed. just dropped in for a bit. 97 so far, nbt but no 8's or 9's - not trying too hard, lol

or even rbud*
4:21 am

oh, I will, I'm sure. about two pages of my book and I'll be out like a light. :)
4:22 am

nothing like a dull book!
4:24 am
rbud

haha, got the in 8 and 9, how appropriate! so, with nbs, I think I'll go off to bed. will be looking forward to new puppy stories.

4:34 am

every day, a little bit of the snow melts. It's been a horrible winter
4:34 am

Cold but no snow. Actually had sunshine yesterday
4:35 am

we get a little bit of sunshine in the afternoons, but it's wan and doesn't get above 40F for more than an hour

hey, liz :-)
5:54 am

bonjour, une. Yes, Ruby's death was devastating so I called my "chow friend" in Italy, and Rafaella is coming to us from Barcelona next week
5:54 am
rubyfoo

{{lizlin}}
5:54 am
Uneaixoise

I'm so happy for you and Rafaella!!
5:55 am
Lizlin

Do you know arrival details yet - it's so exciting!
5:55 am
rubyfoo

she looks exactly like my very first chow, Rosie
5:55 am
rubyfoo

No, we're on pins and needles, not knowing which day or even which airport
5:55 am
Uneaixoise

can't wait for pics :-)
5:56 am
Lizlin

Me too
5:56 am
rubyfoo

I'll send you the tiny pic I have but Haven't received any others
5:56 am

I wish I knew how to put it in my profile.....it came in an e-mail

:-D
5:56 am
ivesy3

ruby , have all your dogs names started with r? i just love their names
5:57 am
rubyfoo

she is still very pale but with a black face and VERY study legs. The owner says she wags her tail all the time
5:57 am
Uneaixoise

how precious!
5:57 am
Lizlin

That's so cute!
5:58 am
Lizlin

Will her colouring darken - I don't know much about chows!
5:58 am
rubyfoo

Rosie, Rufue, Cleo (the black queen of Veyrier), Ruby, Max (another black one), Ruffino (Rufie) and now Raffie. What's funny is they characterize them as red, but not one of them has been red
5:58 am
rubyfoo

Rufus*
5:59 am
rubyfoo

they start out pale and, except for the black ones, wind up shaded blonde with tiny bits of red and not all of them
5:59 am
rubyfoo

Rufie is blondish with a very white tail and bands of other shades of blonde and brown
6:00 am
Lizlin

Just googled some chow images - pretty dogs :)
6:00 am
rubyfoo

they also have totally different kinds of fure: some are silky and curly, others silky and straight and Rufie is sort of bristlely
6:00 am
rubyfoo

fur*
6:00 am
rubyfoo

<-- can't type today
6:01 am
Lizlin

Do they all have similar personalities - i.e. loving or excitable etc?
6:02 am
rubyfoo

they are lovely dogs, very independent. Rosie was playful but protective, Rufus was a reserved gentleman, Cleo was a dream, Max was autistic, Rufie is a bumper but timid with stranger, Ruby owned my heart but was only affectionate with me
6:02 am
rubyfoo

and they have all been good watch dogs, even Max
6:03 am
Lizlin

I think that's great - every one different!
6:03 am
Uneaixoise

must leave you ladies for now, but great seeing you and hearing happy news! Byeee *poof*
6:03 am
rubyfoo

but you have to be willing to have a breed which doesn't necessarily conform to "tricks" or commands. They are well-behaved, but can't be forced
6:04 am
rubyfoo

bye une!
6:04 am
Lizlin

Have a good day une :)
6:04 am
Anniebrook

((ruby)) how exciting. You should be getting Raffie soon.
6:04 am
Lizlin

Not a problem - I guess they treat you as you treat them!

rubyfoo

{{annie}}
6:04 am
Lizlin

Hi Annie :)
6:05 am
rubyfoo

we are waiting to leqarn which day next week
6:05 am
rubyfoo

yes, and they are very gentle
6:05 am
Lizlin

That's so important :)
6:07 am
rubyfoo

it took 2 adults to carry Ruby down to the garden for her burial; they weight about 75 lbs but I think Rufie will be bigger
6:07 am
Lizlin

Wow! Bigger than I thought!
6:08 am
rubyfoo

and their heavy fur makes them look even larger
6:08 am
Lizlin

Do they moult a lot in the summer - I'd've thought they'd be very hot!
6:09 am
rubyfoo

I spend a lot of time combing them, but they find shady places and it's not that hot here
6:09 am
rubyfoo

they shed all year, so dog fur is a way of life in the Hunter household!
6:09 am
Lizlin

Bet that's relaxing for them and you!
6:10 am
rubyfoo

I used to spend mor than an hour a night grooming and massaging Ruby, good for both of us
6:10 am
Lizlin

:)

Are chows prone to arthritis?
6:11 am
smores

Good morning/evening all :)
6:11 am
Lizlin

Hi smores :)
6:11 am
Anniebrook

morning, smores
6:11 am
rubyfoo

Rufus had it his last year and ultimately had to be put down because he couldn't walk. With Ruby, it was her heart and I think the deep massages may have forestalled (or even prevented) arthritis
6:11 am
smores

{group hug} :)
6:12 am

as usualy, I'm dog-dominating the chog :(
6:12 am

6:12 am
rubyfoo

I'll stop; you all must be sick of hearing about dogs dogs dogs
6:12 am
smores

It's a chow chog...tehe
6:12 am
Lizlin

Love dogs - would love to have one but our life style just wouldn't be fair on a pet of any type right now.
6:13 am
Lizlin

Love chatting Ruby
6:13 am
smores

not at all ruby
6:13 am
rubyfoo

as we're retired and have a good-sized, totally-enclosed garden, dogs are perfect. When we lived in Miami and I was still working, I used to bring the dog the the office
6:14 am
smores

Did you have chows then as well?
6:14 am
Lizlin

I grew up with a dog but haven't had one as an adult - there are loads of dog beaches here.
6:14 am
rubyfoo

I think I will need a video camera for the two puppies when Raffie comes
6:14 am
rubyfoo

yes, I've had chows since 1990, never had any other breed
6:15 am
smores

Lol...yes, their meeting should be fun :)
6:15 am
rubyfoo

do the dogs go in the ocean?
6:15 am
Lizlin

Some do, some don't. Some owners try to encourage the dogs to go in - some oblige, some don't!
6:15 am
rubyfoo

I guess it gets rid of fleas
6:16 am
rubyfoo

I don't think chows can swim, too much fur and undercoat
6:16 am
Lizlin

We've talked to some lovely dogs and their owners on the beach.
6:16 am
smores

My wolf hybrid loved to swim
6:16 am
Lizlin

I think tics are more of a problem here - some are fatal to the dogs.
6:16 am
rubyfoo

I love the idea of letting dogs run on the beach
6:17 am
rubyfoo

in season, I check the dogs for ticks every day
6:17 am
Lizlin

One of our favourite walking beaches is a dog beach! it's also our closest beach!
6:17 am
rubyfoo

they're disgusting, but I've learned to grit my teeth and remove them
6:17 am
smores

ugh...ticks are terrible
6:17 am
rubyfoo

do you have any photos of the beach?
6:18 am
lynxxx

There are some very cute Utube clips of chows swimming. Hello everyone
6:18 am
Lizlin

Some I guess, but not with dogs!
6:18 am
smores

BRB...gotta get some coffee
6:18 am
rubyfoo

my friend's boxer got a tick and they didn't remove it in time and she was left with arthritis from it
6:18 am
rubyfoo

6:19 am
Lizlin

I tend to photograph the wild surf in storms - it's more interesting!
6:20 am
Lizlin

Hi Lyn :)
6:20 am
rubyfoo

are you any good?
6:20 am
Lizlin

Photography - yes but I only use a point and shoot but I can usually frame a shot pretty well.
6:21 am
Lizlin

Hubby uses an SLR and has great fun processing and playing with his shots. A hobby I introduced him to! He "plays" photos on his computer while I babble!
6:22 am
rubyfoo

I have a good camara but only "point and shoot", can't get involved with anything more
6:22 am
rubyfoo

my photo file is in dire need of editing, but I am too lazy and preoccupied to invest the needed time
6:23 am
Lizlin

I don't want a more complex camera - I like mine. It fits in my pocket! it also takes good shots!
6:24 am
rubyfoo

lizlin if you write to me (e-mail's in the profile), I can send you some photos
6:24 am
Lizlin

I guess it is a pretty progressive group, but I want to make sure I am dressed appropriately. I have friends who have stopped by after temple and they were in linens of certain colors and such. I don't this this synagogue has those restrictions, but I want to make sure I am not offending anyone.
7:15 am

I was going to wear black pants and a light lavender top. should that be OK? Also, any other protocol issues I need to know BEFORE entering the synagogue?
7:17 am

car, best not to go in pants or jeans. best to have a sleeve of some kind. no color code.
7:17 am
Anniebrook

car. That is fine.
7:17 am

i would say if you have a skirt it is better. people do dress up to go.

7:18 am
Kaplan the Magne

That's fine. Some places will give you a light hair covering. Orthodox places don't do pabnts for women, otherwise nice pants are fine. It kind of depends more on the community style than the religion. Where I live people dress down. In suburbs they dress up more.
7:18 am

if not, pants are ok. but just know people do dress up. no jeans or sloppy stuff. no jogging clothes.

I had to attend a Muslim funeral once - they were very clear about head coverings, long sleeves, etc. so I decided to dress up and wore a dress (which I never ever do) and was chagrined to find out that legs are supposed to covered, too - all the women were wearing pants or long dresses(not sure what they're called)

7:55 am

Tony Danza has not fallen to his death off a cliff in New Zealand, contrary to rumours spreading on the internet.

Twitter lit up today with rumours of the 1980s TV star's death, which are fake.

The rumour was sparked by an article 'Tony Danza Dies In Car Crash' on a fake news site calling itself 'Global Associated News'.

The website fakeawish.com generates fake news reports about celebrity deaths, and Danza is not the first to allegedly fall from a cliff in New Zealand. Jeff Goldblum, Tom Cruise, George Clooney, house music producer David Guetta and Will Smith have all allegedly 'fallen off a cliff in New Zealand' at some point.

he'd lost weight but was still bright and eating loads as normal but drinking more, it started after we came home with the bairn from the hospital, and when we took her away on holiday he looked like he had lost more but we were told he was eating loads as normal, it ended up being his intestines and his kidneys were hard and he' was in a very serious condition and even with test and maybe treatment he wouldn't pull through

8:06 pm

10:29 pm
Lizlin

I don't know lilli - asked hubby - he didn't know the drink at all. I still call it a Bucks fizz!
10:29 pm
Lizlin

Sleep well smores :)
10:29 pm
lilliann

that's the problem here and why people fall out because we have different words and saying even though we all speak english
10:29 pm
Lizlin

Very true :)
10:30 pm
Lizlin

Phew! Down to 20!
10:30 pm
smores

"rarely falls" lol
10:31 pm
MollyL

I call it ruining good champagne.
10:31 pm
smores

go liz go!!
10:31 pm
lilliann

i must admit liz it will always be a bucks fizz to me too
10:31 pm
lilliann

but i don't like champagne so...
10:31 pm
smores

Agree Molly :)
10:31 pm
Lizlin

Just have to be careful to avoid spoonerisms!
10:31 pm
lilliann

yay liz...17 here
10:32 pm
Lizlin

True Molly! But I only like expensive champagne - not that I've had that very often!
10:33 pm
smores

I think I'll ask for a bucks fizz next time I am out for brunch :)
10:34 pm
MollyL

Ask for bangers and mash too Smores. Your wait staff will be talking about you for weeks.
10:34 pm
Lizlin

Try it! Just be careful to avoid spoonerisms!
10:34 pm
Lizlin

Oops - sa4 that before!
10:34 pm
smores

LOL
10:34 pm
lilliann

bangers and mash and bucks fizz...well what more could you ask for?? :)
10:34 pm
smores

what the heck is spoonerisms Liz?
10:35 pm
smores

No telling what they'd bring me though :)
10:35 pm
lilliann

everyone in beverly hills will want it :)
10:35 pm
Lizlin

reversal of letters or consonants! After the Rev. Spooner. So a bucks fizz would be a *ucks buzz!
10:35 pm
Lizlin

bizz
10:36 pm
MollyL

No telling Smores, but you might get a few of the male wait staff asking for your number. : D
10:36 pm
Lizlin

Auto correct to spoil the effect of that!! *cks bizz
10:36 pm
lilliann

we could sell cheap plonk and cook bangers and mash on the pavement/sidewalk and make a fortune :) or maybe not
10:36 pm
smores

LOL Liz...
10:37 pm
smores

hmmm....maybe I should :)
10:37 pm
Lizlin

If you google spoonerisms, you'll probably find some good ones!
10:38 pm
lilliann

i've never heard of a spoonerism and the ucks buzz?
10:38 pm
smores

I bet :)
10:39 pm
lilliann

ucks buzz sounds naughty!
10:39 pm
MollyL

It's a lot naughtier the way it's "supposed" to be.
10:39 pm
Lizlin

"Three cheers for our queer old dean!" (dear old queen, referring to Queen Victoria)

10:40 pm
lilliann

10:41 pm
Lizlin

That's cockney rhyming slang
10:41 pm
lilliann

dog and bone
10:41 pm
MollyL

We love our dirty cockney girl : D
10:41 pm
lilliann

10:41 pm
Lizlin

William Archibald Spooner (22 July 1844 – 29 August 1930) was a famous Oxford don whose name is given to the linguistic phenomenon of spoonerisms
10:41 pm
Lizlin

Again wickipedia
10:42 pm
smores

:D thanks liz...needed a laugh before bed
10:42 pm
lilliann

well, i forget how to speak normally and that gets me into trouble so i won't remember spoonerisms :)
10:42 pm
Lizlin

It used to be fun getting kids to make up spoonerisms - before the days of the national curriculum!!! Sigh!
10:43 pm
smores

Well, I am really going this time....night all :)
10:44 pm
Lizlin

Night smores :)
10:44 pm
lilliann

i want to learn spoonerisms and then i can teach my daughter to say it and then the bairns won't swear at school anymore....wishful thinking!!
10:45 pm
Lizlin

lol and good luck!!!
10:45 pm
lilliann

night smores, great speaking to you as normal.take care hin :)
10:46 pm
lilliann

10:46 pm
lilliann

10:46 pm
lilliann

10:46 pm
MollyL

No, Liz.
10:46 pm
Lizlin

I def am by the definition of being born within the sound of Bow Bells!
10:47 pm
Lizlin

:) And proud of it!
10:47 pm
lilliann

oh ok :0 i was going to say i was a southerner once
10:48 pm
Lizlin

You wouldn't know it to hear me speak though! North London or accentless as I was once described!
10:48 pm
lilliann

really.i thought you had to be atleast 100 and over now to be a proper cockney as in the peel of the bow bells?
10:48 pm
Lizlin

10
10:49 pm
Lizlin

OK - so perhaps they weren't peeling when I was born!
10:49 pm
MollyL

Liz has found the fountain of youth.
10:49 pm
lilliann

because the bells haven't rung for about 60 years now atleast :0
10:49 pm
Lizlin

pealing!
10:49 pm
lilliann

lol liz
10:49 pm
Lizlin

Oh well - not that old til later in the year!
10:49 pm
lilliann

well, they might have been peeling :)
10:50 pm
Lizlin

As long as it's not me peeling!
10:50 pm
lilliann

lol
10:50 pm
lilliann

so we would be like the jets and sharks liz as i was from the south of london
10:51 pm
Lizlin

Ooooh! A fight!
10:52 pm
lilliann

oh no not another one tonight! i've already upset one person :(
10:53 pm
Lizlin

You didn't say anything to upset deliberately! People have to understand that words don't always reflect the way things are said!
10:53 pm
Lizlin

Have you got a clue for ta 6 please?
10:54 pm
lilliann

yes thanks :)
10:54 pm
lilliann

lol
10:54 pm
Lizlin

nm! so obvious!
10:54 pm
lilliann

a colourful person
10:55 pm
Lizlin

Missing the sun so didn't see that word :)
10:55 pm
lilliann

it wasn't to me at the time!lol
10:55 pm
lilliann

me too, after mexico and coming back to the snow
10:55 pm
Lizlin

lol
10:55 pm
MollyL

Pish Lilliann. People here are so ultra sensitive. It's ridiculous.
10:55 pm
lilliann

i didn't mean to upset anyone.i'm not that sort of person
10:56 pm
Lizlin

Me neither but I also did the same thing once!
10:56 pm
lilliann

i upset people by my icon :)
10:57 pm
lilliann

oh really liz?
10:57 pm
Lizlin

But it's funny :)
10:57 pm
lilliann

you're right molly.we can't do right for wrong
10:58 pm
Lizlin

Apparently I gave a clue that was too obvious!
10:58 pm
lilliann

well i thought so, it shows my sense of humour and who i am but some people on here took offence
10:59 pm
Lizlin

We are who we are and you can choose to chat or not. We should just ignore what we don't like, after all it's a game and a friendly place to be. Well that's what I think.
10:59 pm
lilliann

yes if you spell it out then you can get bitched about but then if you don't not all people get it, so either way, you are going to lose here :)
11:00 pm
Lizlin

Sometimes it's difficult to know what people want and I know that sometimes people give clues when stats are asked for and vice versa. Some people want cryptic, others don't!
11:01 pm
lilliann

that's exactly what i say liz. i am who i am and i can't and won't change myself.over the years i've had enough of people walking all over me and i now stand up for myself
11:01 pm
Lizlin

Good for you!
11:02 pm
lilliann

it's true, about the clues, some like cryptic and others need more help but what do you do when you ahve both on?
11:02 pm
lilliann

you're going to upset one or the other
11:03 pm
Lizlin

Sigh! Hope that people understand each other's needs. You can see fairly quickly if a clue is given and not stats, so don't read it!
11:03 pm
grannyrose

may i make a comment here?
11:03 pm
Lizlin

Any time
11:03 pm
lilliann

it's the north and my family genes as they are from up here has changed me plus lot of what i've been throught hte last 15 years.i've toughened up but i'm still aware of other peoples feelings and don't like to upset people
11:04 pm
lilliann

yes rose
11:04 pm
Lizlin

I don't think many people like to hurt feelings
11:04 pm
grannyrose

generally, i find that if i guve a clue as in the meaning of the word, and someone says ' i don't get' i then move onto a more understandable clue.
11:05 pm
Lizlin

I think that's good practice - and good advice :)
11:05 pm
grannyrose

then i know some people only like stats, and others prefer a more detailed clue.
11:05 pm
lilliann

good advice rose
11:05 pm
Lizlin

Sadly, it still doesn't stop some people becoming upset
11:06 pm
lilliann

i also think, you get to know certain people on here and what sort of clues they want
11:06 pm
grannyrose

tue liz, but as was commented, you cannot please all the peeps all the time.
11:06 pm
MollyL

Some people live for drama. You just have to work around it or ignore it.
11:06 pm
lilliann

you're right liz
11:07 pm
Lizlin

I've said it before - but I really like this site and generally like the people who chat
11:07 pm
lilliann

at the end of the day, we are who we are and if people like us then ok but if they don't then as my bairn says 'whatever'
11:08 pm
Lizlin

Such a wonderful word - drives my hubby mad when i use it. Whatever!
11:08 pm
MollyL

As a friend of mi4 says, if someone chooses to get their knickers in a knot, it's best not to try and untie them.
: D
11:08 pm
Lizlin

lol
11:09 pm
lilliann

me too liz. i've made some good friends on here and having the life i have that means alot to me, but at the same time i'm now not going to bow down to people and feel guilty for what i have said! i have enough going on in my life without having to please other people
11:09 pm
Lizlin

Clue for the 2nd or 3rd wi 6 please - cryptic or obvious! I've got 6 left and I'm getting word blind!

11:18 pm
cybernan

11:18 pm
Lizlin

Still here to clue, if needed or even to give stats
11:19 pm
lilliann

ah, ok, i'm glad i helped but didn't know that but thanks for telling me. my cousin use to work with jewish people with specail needs so she knows more than me.
11:20 pm
lilliann

sadly liz, with my memory i will forget these words
11:20 pm
Lizlin

Your clue was good - def sent me in the right direction!
11:20 pm
Lizlin

I forget loads to but I've been babbling now since the end of last August and some are beginning to stick!
11:20 pm
Lizlin

too
11:21 pm
lilliann

i forget english so i have no hope :(
11:22 pm
Lizlin

That's what dictionaries are for - or that's what I used to tell the kids
11:22 pm
lilliann

some words with me do but i forget alot of the words which is why i do this game to help me. i remember certain people on here. i remmember people who i really like and i remember people who don't like me :)
11:23 pm
Lizlin

:)
11:23 pm
lilliann

inbetween , i have to keep reading there bios
11:23 pm
lilliann

guess where you are liz?
11:23 pm
Lizlin

If only more of the weird words were usable in everyday language
11:23 pm
Lizlin

Well I know I like you
11:24 pm
lilliann

yes, you're right...who are you?? lol
11:24 pm
lilliann

sorry hin :)
11:25 pm
Lizlin

I often don't remember things I'm told and then I don't comment on things because I might say something which is to do with someone else - by mistake. Know what I mean?
11:25 pm
Lizlin

That's the sort of thing I'd say - lol
11:25 pm
lilliann

my sense of humour probably winds people up
11:26 pm
Lizlin

Then those people can choose to ignore it!
11:26 pm
Lizlin

Profound statement of the day: - life is about choice!
11:26 pm
lilliann

aye i do, but i also forget when someone phones and says something and hubby says who is that a minute later and i can't remember, but that's to do with all my dissabilities
11:27 pm
Lizlin

As you said, we take people as we find them - or not!
11:27 pm
lilliann

i like that statement liz :)
11:27 pm
MollyL

It must be a very dry life not to be able to laugh at oneself.
11:28 pm
Lizlin

It must be hard not to have a sense of humour of any kind
11:29 pm
Lizlin

But perhaps if you don't have one you don't miss it - but you certainly must miss out on a lot of stuff.
11:29 pm
flosey

FW, last word in6/21
11:29 pm
Lizlin

Congrats flosey :)
11:29 pm
flosey

how does a person get through life without a sense of humour
11:29 pm
flosey

thanks Liz
11:30 pm
Lizlin

Can't imagine it.
11:30 pm
MollyL

Not having a sense of humor is a disorder. It's called "flat affect"
11:30 pm
lilliann

i can take the mick out of myself and am happy for others too.i might not always like what they are saying but i will take it with a pinch of salt
11:30 pm

11:33 pm
MollyL

Yes Liz, but I know what your Cockney mind was thinking : D
11:33 pm
Lizlin

Of course! Mix cockney with Aussie and then you're really talking!
11:34 pm
lilliann

you're lucky! i have to sleep next to him when he is home...he also lifts his his body and does it and makes a arrrgghh noise when he has even in his sleep! lol you lot are lucky, you could be sleeping next to a fart magnet :)
11:34 pm
rururocks

whew.. I read that as cocky mind
11:34 pm
MollyL

Oh my God, I never thought of that lethal combination.
11:35 pm
Lizlin

lethal indeed
11:35 pm
MollyL

*Bows to Liz* I am not worthy.

11:41 pm

11:41 pm
Bugsaw

I don't think so ruru. Some days he is easily slighted.
11:43 pm
Bugsaw

hope your days is better tomorrow lilliann
11:43 pm
rururocks

too bad..
11:43 pm
rururocks

I hope so too lillian
11:43 pm
lilliann

11:43 pm
rururocks

apparently not much
11:43 pm
lilliann

thank you both :)
11:44 pm
lilliann

i didn't mean anything nasty.it's obviously my sense of humour and englishmn
11:45 pm
rururocks

it's off the board now.. let it go..
11:46 pm
lilliann

i will here but i'll still stew over it.
11:46 pm
lilliann

i have 8 left and need to finish
11:47 pm
MollyL

Totally not worth stewing over Lilliann
11:47 pm
Bugsaw

don't stew lilliann. BR is a war vet. some days are better than others. He does give great clues tho
11:48 pm
lilliann

i just don't like falling out with people molly
11:48 pm
rururocks

trust me lillian.. it's no big deal
11:48 pm
Bugsaw

nothing is permanent.
11:49 pm
lilliann

he does give great clues, that's what i was saying.i don't get them but i wish that sometimes i could clue like that...that's what i meant
11:49 pm
MollyL

You meant no harm and offense was taken. Happens here all the time.
11:49 pm
lilliann

6 :)
11:49 pm
lilliann

to some people it is bugs
11:51 pm
lilliann

i know molly but i then get hurt that i've offended someone. even though i'm tough i also feel for others and hate hurting people, probably the gemini in me :)
11:51 pm
Bugsaw

BR has forgiven me when I made the same kind of slip once. Don't worry. Just send him some peace
11:51 pm
lilliann

can i have aclue for the na5 please so i can finish
11:51 pm

11:52 pm

All you are responsible for is your intention. Other people are responsible for how they react.
11:52 pm

11:57 pm

i just apologise and move on. for goodness sake, i let my mouth and mind go all the time. ask molly!!
11:57 pm

Some people are just cranky ..
11:58 pm
BabbleRabble

I did not say I was offended. You all don't care for me. Fine with me. Cowards talk about people and not to them. No need for apology. I laugh at you.
11:58 pm
lilliann

ty bugs, i still needed another 5 words and have fireworks!! :)
11:59 pm
lilliann

i am apologising if i have offended you Br, as i didn't mean too.i don't want to fall out
