Marc Freeman

Does the mo7 work off the mo7 before it, please?

4:39 am

MollyL

Yes, add a suffix

4:39 am

MollyL

I'm assuming you mean the mo4 before it

4:42 am

Marc Freeman

yes having a hard time finding the suffix because the three letter have to be worth9 points, correct?

4:43 am

MollyL

Right, so one of them has to be...

4:44 am

Marc Freeman

a 4 letter word and one has to be a 3 letter word

4:46 am

TheByzantine

the suffix has been used two times previously

4:47 am

sukee

Good morning all.

4:48 am

TheByzantine

Good morning

4:50 am

MollyL

A suffix is not necessarily a word Mark. ite is a suffix and that is not a word.

4:56 am

rubyfoo

Good morning. Just back from scanner appt, and all is well. Only chajge is less fluid in my lung, so I am breathing easier

4:56 am

4:57 am

rubyfoo

sorry, I'll stop talking now

4:58 am

MollyL

Ruby, you don't have to stop talking just because you put words in the chat. And they were easy words, people probably already have them. : D

4:58 am

TheByzantine

5:39 am

TheByzantine

Neither is an email

5:40 am

Marc Freeman

Thanks got it

5:40 am

TheByzantine

6:25 am

rubyfoo

Yesterday was lovely and warm but when I "walked the garden", I was frustrated seeing all the work I would like to be doijng, but can't

6:26 am

6:28 am

zoozzoom

When does your gardener start back to work for you?

6:28 am

rubyfoo

I am not mo6 like I was yesterday

6:30 am

crosshair

Good morning, everybody:)

6:30 am

rubyfoo

I haven't been using a real gardener, just the handyman, but I think I'll have to bite the bullet because it is going to pot. How's that for using 2 clichés in one sentns? LOL

6:30 am

zoozzoom

6:30 am

zoozzoom

OS 4/4

6:33 am

rubyfoo

It was gross: mystery meat with mushrooms and a totally bland white sauce, served on rice, an undressed salad, a chunk of delicious breadad a wedge of Reblochon

6:33 am

zoozzoom

And hello, Wolvie :-)

6:33 am

Wolvie

oh man- lol- ty zoo

6:33 am

zoozzoom

Welcome :-)

6:34 am

zoozzoom

It might of been chicken at one point then, Ruby lol

6:35 am

rubyfoo

you guess is as good as mine as the meat had no taste whatsoever

6:35 am

zoozzoom

Sounds more like frogs legs then LOL

6:36 am

zoozzoom

I had those years ago and they did not taste of anything. I did not like them.

6:36 am

zoozzoom

And as for escargot YUCK!

6:37 am

periwinkle

I had escargot years ago smothered in garlic butter and they were good but I would never eat them now

6:38 am

zoozzoom

It was the texture, Peri, so gross.

6:38 am

Anniebrook

I love escargot.

6:38 am

periwinkle

bbl

6:39 am

rubyfoo

Cooked properly, with butter, garlic and parsley, they are delish -- and the same goes for escargot

6:39 am

zoozzoom

Eeww, Annie lol

6:39 am

rubyfoo

Moi aussi, Annie

6:39 am

rubyfoo

Did Bobby like the video?

6:40 am

Anniebrook

((ruby)) We received your welcome letter yesterday. Bobby loved the video and I did too.

6:40 am

rubyfoo

Of course a bedroom slipper cooked with those same things would be just as good

6:40 am

zoozzoom

LOL

6:40 am

Anniebrook

with good french bread.

6:41 am

rubyfoo

I have a couple more video. Should I send them? I am trying to do it a lot so that I won't forfget how.

6:42 am

rubyfoo

Actually, often the best part of the delivered meal is the bread

6:42 am

Anniebrook

ruby, yes, send them. It is lots of fun watching Rufie and Raffie play

6:42 am

Lizlin

Hi all :) and I agree, Annie. Rufie and Raffie had lots of fun together.

6:43 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Liz :-)

6:43 am

Anniebrook

Hi Liz :)

6:43 am

rubyfoo

Nadia took them as I had to be the audience. They only romp around if somebody is watching. I hope they don't run off and join the circus....

6:43 am

Lizlin

Ruby - so happy that your scan showed everything is stable.

6:43 am

rubyfoo

((liz))

6:44 am

Lizlin

Hi Zooz - how did you survive Katie - I heard that the IoW got the worst of it.

6:44 am

rubyfoo

and my breathing is much improved

6:44 am

Lizlin

That's so great, Ruby.

6:44 am

rubyfoo

Katie? Is she headed this way?

6:45 am

Lizlin

The huge storms that hit the UK at the weekend, Ruby.

6:45 am

Lizlin

I think it was called Katie!!! Could have remembered wrong though!

6:46 am

zoozzoom

Katie had gusts of 106 mph it did hit us hard but hey I am still here lol

6:46 am

zoozzoom

Thanks for asking, Liz :-)

6:46 am

Lizlin

Glad to hear that. No damage to your house - or your parents?

6:47 am

zoozzoom

No, Ruby, it went north in the end so you did not get any of it :-)

6:47 am

zoozzoom

No damage although I still have my garden fence down from the last storm and need to get a new one put up.

6:48 am

Lizlin

Good thing you didn't do it before this storm! At least you only have to repair it once :)

6:48 am

rubyfoo

Are there deer and rabbits on your island?

6:49 am

zoozzoom

Oh gosh I would of been very annoyed if that had happened lol

6:49 am

Lizlin

I bet.

6:49 am

rubyfoo

Good philosophy

6:49 am

zoozzoom

Rabbits yesdeer no.

6:50 am

zoozzoom

And we only have red squirrels here too no grey ones.

6:50 am

rubyfoo

The French have eaten all the deedr, squirrels and rabbits; I'd have a better chance of seeing wildlife in Central Park

6:51 am

rubyfoo

The woman have 100-skin fur coats

6:51 am

Lizlin

I still find it weird that people eat kangaroo here - they say that there are so many of them that they need to be culled.

6:52 am

zoozzoom

Do you not have a rabbit epidemic too, Liz?

6:52 am

rubyfoo

There are, however, wild boar, mountain goats andsmall foxes just above me and there's a badget that gutted my neighbor's cat

6:53 am

rubyfoo

badger*

6:53 am

zoozzoom

sorry to hear about your neighbours cat, Ruby.

6:54 am

Lizlin

There are still some cases of myxomatosis but the rabbits have become immune. There are massive fines in Queensland for anyone keeping a rabbit.

6:54 am

Lizlin

Me too - sorry about the cat.

6:54 am

rubyfoo

I've never seen one except in a zoo. My friend goes to the abattoir (sp?) and gets food for the foxes

6:55 am

zoozzoom

Oh i have seen a couple of rabbits with myxomatosis. what a horrible thing for a rabbit to get.

6:56 am

rubyfoo

I don't know about tyat disease

6:56 am

zoozzoom

There are plenty of red foxes here too. and they do make a hell of a noise when they are in season. it is such a horrible screeching sound.

6:56 am

rubyfoo

(or how to type!)

6:57 am

Lizlin

Thankfully I've never seen it. I can understand why the fines are so heavy for keeping pet rabbits. Quote from ABC news Queensland has the toughest anti-rabbit regime in the world, with penalties of $44,000 and six months in prison."

6:57 am

Anniebrook

be back later

6:57 am

rubyfoo

((annie))

6:57 am

Lizlin

Have a good day, Annie

6:58 am

zoozzoom

wow that is harsh, Liz!

6:58 am

zoozzoom

Take care, Annie :-)

6:58 am

Lizlin

I guess it's the only way to stop an epidemic - with harsh consequences.

6:58 am

rubyfoo

I'm stuck at 78 left and neither nbt nor nbs

6:59 am

Lizlin

I have 20 left - can I help (or try to)?

rubyfoo

aaah, finally saw the ni5 which will undoubtedly lead to greater things

7:03 am

Lizlin

Good clue, Byz

7:03 am

Lizlin

mo 7 - ends in a suffix - not empty

7:04 am

Lizlin

Weird word but recognisable - never seen it before.

7:04 am

Lizlin

Not empty suffix - not the mo7

7:05 am

Lizlin

I'm not talking very coherently. Time for me to stop tonight! Have a good day everyone.

7:05 am

zoozzoom

Nice to see you, Liz. Hope you sleep well :-)

7:21 am

bichon

I smoked as a young woman but stopped at 32

7:22 am

rubyfoo

Are you coughing a lot?

7:22 am

rubyfoo

Our diagnostic team is responding quickly!

7:23 am

zoozzoom

Could be just a nodule?

7:24 am

bichon

It's weird. I started with a dry cough when I started on a blood pressure. A known side effect. I tried a month off it and that didn't help. Then he had me try an acid reflux med and that didn't help. Then he had me take a chest xray. It could be a nodule

7:25 am

bichon

I am leaving on Tues. for a river cruise in Europe [Danube]

7:26 am

rubyfoo

That sounds splendind! Spring is finally arriving, slowly but greenly

7:26 am

10:24 am

jesdraggon

hah! well, more likely i'd pass out and start breathing again, but i suppose :P

12:09 pm

MLFAN17

lol jes

12:10 pm

jesdraggon

I mean seriously, we were over half way through things before the rep realized we were talking about a mobile home and not a stick-frame, despite the same bank holding the original loan, AND having given the information both to the first guy we talked to AND the rep he passed us to, AND sending in the homeowner's insurance information (twice, because they lost it the first time).

12:14 pm

MLFAN17

sounds like you are getting the run around?

12:15 pm

12:22 pm

jesdraggon

Well, the approved the loan, so not so much a run around as just having to wade through knee-deep incompetence

12:22 pm

MLFAN17

are you the owner yet?

12:23 pm

TheByzantine

mo + liberace was a pia****

12:23 pm

MLFAN17

ty byz

12:25 pm

jesdraggon

well, sort of - in that we still owe the bank, they technically own much of it. This was a refinance, so no moving or anything, just decreased the interest rate to shorten the loan and drop some debt.

12:26 pm

MLFAN17

ah! Good idea I had a friend and his wife do that with the place that she owned until he moved in.Dont know the outcome

12:29 pm

jesdraggon

should make a significant difference - dropped from 6.7% to 4.35%, which just by itself takes about 3 years off the loan. Also dropped the required monthly payment, so if I keep making the payments I've been making that'll take another year or so off it.

12:29 pm

MLFAN17

congrats jes that is awesome!

12:31 pm

jesdraggon

which in theory is worth all the rigamarole they're running us through to get it done.

12:32 pm

MLFAN17

I would think so yes

12:41 pm

jesdraggon
