Lizlin

Congrats, Hurshy and Ru

12:34 am

hurshy

stupid ancestors

12:35 am

hurshy

12:35 am

hurshy

thanks liz

12:36 am

rururocks

with the way things are going in the capitol I may want to become british too

12:37 am

hurshy

12:37 am

rururocks

i better get ready for bed.. big day tomorrow

12:37 am

hurshy

at least it's commonwealth

12:37 am

rururocks

i am certainly considering Canada hursh.. after i retire

12:38 am

hurshy

at this point i'm open to mexico too, if i can get out before they build a wall to keep us in

12:38 am

rururocks

i like british Columbia a lot.. love going up there

12:39 am

hurshy

oh i'd be a PEI girl, or one of the eastern cities. closer to family for me.

12:39 am

hurshy

PEI just has the nostalgic Anne thing going for it

12:39 am

rururocks

ah.. not for me.. i love the serene beauty of BC

12:40 am

Lizlin

Also love BC for the same reasons.

12:40 am

hurshy

rururocks

12:42 am

hurshy

1:13 am

rubyfoo

Good morning

1:48 am

sprite

good morning all

1:49 am

flosey

good morning Sprite, how are things going there

1:51 am

sprite

*hugs flosey* Good evening to you!
Things are still going perfectly here. Will be our last full day, today we will send the men out to do some male bonding and Rose and I will laze about and do her nails

1:51 am

sprite

tonight we will go out for dinner with all of us, Rose and Don, Rob and I, Tim and Lisa, and Caya

1:51 am

flosey

a nice restful day, am sure you must need it !! Enjoy

1:51 am

sprite

how was your day, flosey?

1:52 am

flosey

today was a quiet day for me - don't think I was even out of the house!!

1:52 am

sprite

was the visit from the former student enjoyable?

1:53 am

flosey

except for my daily walk - always

1:53 am

flosey

yes Sprite, it was lovely, I had not met her before

1:53 am

sprite

I believe that is the best way to stay healthy... do a daily walk

1:54 am

sprite

glad it was lovely! Yes, you are right, we can use relaxing day, last week was intense. But highly enjoyable. We have grown even closer, Rose and I. True sisters.

1:54 am

flosey

am full of arthritis, so it is one easy exercise - do intend to get back to an exercise class though - have to push myself there though

1:55 am

flosey

my mother was also, does one inherit such !!!

1:56 am

sprite

sounds painful :( Doing exercise must take courage... but I think it is great you do it.

1:56 am

flosey

it only gets worse without exercise

1:57 am

sprite

very true. Still, not easy to push through the pain.

1:59 am

flosey

we live in a very beautiful area, surrounded by huge trees so it is pleasant and enjoyable walking

2:00 am

sprite

sounds gorgeous to me. I love trees. If I could somehow live in the woods, I'd be perfectly happy. Even if it was only in a dump!

2:03 am

flosey

we're in a very pretty valley - the cedars are so huge I could not get my arms around the trunks, also have maples - but not the gorgeous sugar maples we had back in Ontaio and Quebec - in autumn they turn red - here they turn yellow

2:04 am

flosey

beautiful at any rate!!

2:04 am

sprite

those red trees are so incredibly beautiful.

2:06 am

flosey

I do enjoy going back to Ontario in the autumn for that reason, last year we went end of June when grandson graduated HS - this year I'll try to go back late September/early Oct.

2:06 am

sprite

oh, I have a new toy... Rose and Don gave us a slow cooker! For treating them like royalty, they say... silly, because it was our privilege and pleasure... but it is a gift we will treasure for a long time. Have been searching for recipes. Am so gonna enjoy using it.

2:07 am

flosey

ah, slow cookers are great Sprite - put supper in early in the day and forget it!!

2:08 am

sprite

exactly! Just my kind of thing. I have most energy and least pain in the mornings, and around dinner time am at my lowest. This is absolutely brilliant.

2:09 am

sprite

must have been awesome to see grandson graduate... worth missing the autumn colours for once, I bet

2:09 am

flosey

ah, same here Sprite - hubby has been doing most of the cooking these days - and he's good

2:10 am

sprite

*thanks and blessings for husbands who are willing to cook and do it well to boot*

2:11 am

flosey

bending over counters, sinks, and such is probably the most difficult for me now

2:11 am

sprite

some things, we can do sitting down. But most parts of cooking really require us to stand, alas

2:14 am

flosey

cooking/baking things I enjoyed most!!

2:15 am

sprite

so frustrating, when aging makes it hard to do the things we enjoy most :(

2:15 am

flosey

ah yes, sigh - but aging beats the alternative

2:16 am

flosey

giggle

2:16 am

sprite

*giggles* Too true!

2:22 am

flosey

ah!!! FW!! last word tr7/32 and now must be off to bed

2:22 am

flosey

always good to see you in here Sprite - love to Rose

2:23 am

sprite

wtg flosey! Sleep well *hug*

2:25 am

sprite

will do!

2:45 am

sprite

fireflies. Bye all, have a blessed day and/or a peaceful night

5:48 am

sandyloo

very quiet in here tonight

5:50 am

sukee

Hi Sandy, I'm here for about 10 more minutes :)

5:51 am

sandyloo

some of these words , in fact a fair number of these words are escaping me

5:51 am

sukee

Me too, i think I have all the obvious ones. I have 41 left.

5:52 am

sandyloo

26 here

5:53 am

sandyloo

I cant get the mo7 or the ha7

5:53 am

sukee

The ha 7 is like the ta 7

5:54 am

sandyloo

oh duh....ty

5:55 am

sukee

I just got it myself when you said it was an Ha7 :)

5:55 am

sandyloo

also my icon has changed very mysteriously ???? and it is still a giant baby

5:55 am

sukee

Hmm...

5:55 am

sandyloo

I must have tried however unsuccessfully at some stage

5:56 am

sandyloo

no clues for the mo7?

5:57 am

sukee

No, I don't have it yet.

5:58 am

rubyfoo

Hello, back from the vet and my Rufie is fine!

5:58 am

sandyloo

I cant remember when I have seen an 11 letter word in here (dont clue it I am living in hope)

5:58 am

sukee

Hi Ruby...glad to hear that.

5:58 am

sukee

Anyway, I have got to go now. Take care both of you.

5:59 am

sandyloo

hey Ruby, was he ok on the trip and I am glad he is ok

6:00 am

sandyloo

Its been amazingly quiet in here tonight

6:01 am

rubyfoo

The car ride was tough and the tranq didn't kick in until now. It was hard to get him into and out of the car, but he is the best!

6:02 am

rubyfoo

I was here earlier, lurking, and got 62 words

6:02 am

sandyloo

He looks enormous , in fact he looks bigger than you

6:02 am

rubyfoo

How are you, with everybody back?

6:02 am

rubyfoo

He weighs 33 KG

6:04 am

rubyfoo

<I'm eating white peaches and cream for lunch

6:07 am

sandyloo

busy again and have just been singing waltzing matilda to the baby who was crying

6:07 am

sandyloo

sounds yummy

6:10 am

sandyloo

i am going to a long table lunch put on by the students at the chefs school here

6:12 am

sandyloo

it is on saturday very interesting these lunches they put on a series of 6 once a year and they are overseen by one of the winery chefs

6:13 am

rubyfoo

The only bad thing about thisregion is the food. It was fine when I cooked, but otherwise, awful.

6:14 am

rubyfoo

I think I was more upset than Rufie this morning.

6:15 am

sandyloo

I don't lie when I say we hav very fabulous restaurants here in our south west. we have a festival once a year where people like Heston, Rick Stein, and lots of others come (I am terrible with names ) but you get my drift

6:16 am

sandyloo

I thought all food in France was fabulous. I have only been to Paris and apart from the terrible breakfasts, the food was great

6:16 am

rubyfoo

Fortunately, the view from this prettyhouse makes up for the food.

6:17 am

sandyloo

I saw a photo of the view but I can't remember where. Watching the Tour I get that most of the countryside of France is stunning

6:18 am

rubyfoo

This region has a very bland, cheese-laden style. There are a few decent restaurants, but since they are in Annecy, rather than my village,they're no longer accessible for me

6:18 am

sandyloo

Do you have that mo7/36?

6:18 am

rubyfoo

And I'm too far from Annecy to order takeout!

6:18 am

sandyloo

What is your village called?

6:19 am

rubyfoo

It is Veyrier du Lac, on the east side of Lake Annecy

6:20 am

rubyfoo

You can get very close on GooglEarth; if I stand in the driveway, I could wave

6:21 am

rubyfoo

I have no words bigger than 7 and not even mo7

6:21 am

sandyloo

I bet it is just gorgeous I will try to do that but not tonight and I must try to find us on google earth -

6:21 am

sandyloo

there is an 11 letter word tonight

6:22 am

rubyfoo

I'd be happy with an 8!

6:22 am

marilyn992

mo 7 36 like that big thing in the nighttime sky

6:22 am

sandyloo

I haven't got that on yet

6:23 am

sandyloo

yeah thanks marilyn

6:23 am

rubyfoo

mo4 + sh5 is a nifty phantom

6:24 am

rubyfoo

ty marilyn

6:24 am

sandyloo

I kept trying that one Ruby

6:25 am

rubyfoo

Where in I, Marilyn? I lived in Carbondale for almost 2 years. Frst husband was fromElgin

6:28 am

rubyfoo

6:29 am

sandyloo

6:30 am

sandyloo

6:31 am

sandyloo

6:32 am

sandyloo

some of these words are very odd

6:32 am

rubyfoo

I can't even imagine wh** they are.

6:32 am

rubyfoo

I can't imagine them

6:33 am

rubyfoo

Maybe a nap would help

6:33 am

sandyloo

lol I cant believe it but I didn't have that wh**

6:33 am

rubyfoo

hahah

6:33 am

sandyloo

20 left

6:34 am

sandyloo

I want a larger grid they are more fun

6:35 am

rubyfoo

I give up for now. See you later, no hugs

6:36 am

rubyfoo

Size matters!

6:36 am

sandyloo

bye for now take care

6:44 am

bichon

6:44 am

godthaab

7:07 am

periwinkle

good morning all. I found ca7/8. but no luck with the ca10 or call

7:07 am

periwinkle

7:07 am

bichon

7:08 am

periwinkle

7:19 am

chj

Is it too early for clues? I went thru today's entire chat and there isn't a single clue

7:23 am

Dorens

There was a clue at 7:07 that gave me the 8,10 and 11.

7:24 am

ChampFit

Got 'em! Had the 7 and finagled the rest. It's gonna be a great day! :)

7:25 am

Dorens

Marc Freeman

I need another clue for ca7, please?

7:38 am

bichon

all the long ca words are related to an old word for a cold

7:39 am

Marc Freeman

Sorry that clue didn't help me.

7:40 am

bichon

ca + word for paving + repeat last consonant + differant consonant

7:41 am

mael

7:41 am

mael

thank you

7:41 am

wvteach

end of CA 10 - ends like the large animal with ahorn (RH 5) but change the final vowel

7:42 am

10:25 am

EvaNadine

i have the 10-11 combo thanks to earlier clues, but i am still missing the 8. anyone have that?
(happy to share 10-11 clues, if youd like them)

It's the base word of those two, Eva, and the plural

10:27 am

EvaNadine

TY tabby - all new words to me!

10:28 am

tabbycat

It's an old word for a chest cold

11:14 am

MollyL

Oh I get it, the 8 is an old word for chest cold

11:14 am

rururocks

chest colds are nothing to monkey around with

11:15 am

CA 7, 10, 11, 8 combo - the CA 7 and 8 are old fashion words for cold or chest congestion - the 10 and 11 (pl) end with large horned animal (RH 5)

MollyL

And the t-shirt is so very right.

7:07 pm

Minveryork

I thought it was funny U posted about Facebook b4 seeing my icon. It is kinda funny because my husband got me this t-shirt.This saying describes him to a tee, no pun intended

7:09 pm

Minveryork

He pretends he has a job, he doesn't. He pretends to know it all, he doesn't. He pretends he's not an alcoholic, he is.

8:49 pm

sandyloo

yeah I got it thanks min

8:49 pm

Minveryork

I, for one, do not pretend my life is awesome.I also do not air my dirty laundry on FB either. I try to keep it fun&light

8:50 pm

sandyloo

and thanks jb LOL I just went off to eat my vegemite and toast for breakfast

8:50 pm

JBsAnno

I'm on FB mainly to follow my family, lots of nieces and nephews. I don't post much.

8:50 pm

eieios

Live is never all fun and light, but we can keep it fun with the attitude we approach it with, min.

8:51 pm

JBsAnno

I want to ask what vegemite tastes like, but I think the answer would be 'vegemite, silly.'

8:51 pm

Minveryork

I post the same icons I post here with the unusual holidays.

8:51 pm

sandyloo

I love facebook , I dont post much just look at photos of friends and family and Margaret River has a community page and a for sale page . I think it is great

8:52 pm

eieios

My parents just came back from Aus., sandy, and my mom brought back some vegemite packets for my kids that taste. They said it tasted like fish food. Lol

8:52 pm

sandyloo

vegemite is very salty and looks like a black paste and is a yeast extract. It is really yummy

8:52 pm

Minveryork

I also post pics of my dog. I will NEVER post selfies though.

8:52 pm

eieios

Probably not the best sample.

8:53 pm

JBsAnno

FB on mobile in the US has a perpetual yard/garage sale going on. Between that and Pinterest I'm looking at my phone A LOT.

8:53 pm

sandyloo

LOL it's hilarious how other countries perceive the taste of vegemite

8:53 pm

Minveryork

Actually never use Facebook on my phone, only on laptop.

8:54 pm

sandyloo

Our American relatives dont like it at all and the Brits prefer marmite but I don't like marmite at all

8:54 pm

Minveryork

Also don't go on FB every day, maybe a few times a month

8:54 pm

sandyloo

The buy and sell page is great for us in the country

8:55 pm

eieios

They wouldn't let my mom take anything food related out od Aus. Into NZ.

8:56 pm

eieios

I am more into Instagram for pics. Not so much advertizing, etc, there.

8:57 pm

JBsAnno

Minver, have you seen @dog_rates on Twitter? (also on Instagram, FB, and Tumblr) People send in pics of their dogs, and he writes captions and rates the dogs. It's hilarious and heartwarming, and has spawned its very own meme (they're good dogs, Brent)

8:57 pm

JBsAnno

Hm, definitely on my phone too much. Ah well, my train commute is long and my phone battery is strong!

8:58 pm

eieios

I Need to check that out. Love dogs.

8:58 pm

sandyloo

Aus and NZ have very strict codes of practice regarding food . Even travelling between our australian states we cant take fruit. When we went to the States I took a box of passionfruit for Bruce's father and unbelieveably I had no trouble getting it through - I was very honest about it

8:58 pm

JBsAnno

And what does marmite taste like? Do we in the US have any equivalents to that, or to vegemite?

9:00 pm

sandyloo

marmite looks like vegemite but tastes sickly and is sweeter than vegemite. The Brits won't agree

9:01 pm

JBsAnno

Isn't that because nature in Australia is wild and crazy, and could latch on to a new seed and just overrun the native growth?

9:02 pm

sandyloo

something like that. we are free of lots of things that other countries are cursed with. Don't ask me what!

9:04 pm

sandyloo

I have to go and get on with some things...picking up horse poo , collecting eggs etc. lol bbl

9:05 pm

JBsAnno

I think I'll keep our spiders and snakes and all our crawly creepy things that I know here. I understand that Aussie flora and fauna are out to get you any way they can!

9:05 pm

JBsAnno

Good night, sandyloo, enjoy your evening pick up and collecting!

9:06 pm

eieios

Thanks for the dog reference. Super cute. I am out for the night. 👍🏻

9:06 pm

JBsAnno

And that's fireworks for me, off to bed to dream about chogs, grids, and commutes with spiders on a train...

9:06 pm

JBsAnno

YW, eieios, glad you enjoy it! Good night!

9:29 pm

Minveryork

Congratulations JBsAnno on your fireworks!Hooray for you

10:30 pm
