hokie carla

hi! I've seen it like he has a room in his house he lets out but not that way.
11:47 am
cybernan

what a strange language we have
11:50 am
zoozzoom

When we were children we would see signs outside some houses on a big board saying to let. We being children would be silly and use a marker pen and put an i inbetween so it read toilet. Things we did when we were young.
11:51 am
hokie carla

I do think it's a little obsolete here for that usage
11:53 am
zoozzoom

What a board being put up outside a house or the word to let?
11:54 am
hokie carla

the usage of to let as to rent
11:54 am
zoozzoom

As I see. It is still very common here.
11:54 am
zoozzoom

Ah*
11:56 am
hokie carla

but I think the confusion was also the way you worded it, more as like it was a rent payment. have never heard a let payment, but maybe that is normal there. as nan said, english is weird. (or something)
11:57 am
zoozzoom

No it is probably the way I worded it.
12:00 pm
zoozzoom

I sometimes hope that when trying to clue that people would look at the grid and realise what I am getting at without spelling the word out. I am not very good at giving clues.

12:07 pm

I can relate to that, Chryst41. There are some foul mouthed people out there.
12:07 pm

It has spilled over into babble chat at times as, Carla has alluded to.
12:08 pm
Chryst4l

Indeed, i sometimes wonder why people choose not to at least try to communicate properly
12:08 pm
Chryst4l

well thats expected, but its good if it doesnt last permanently
12:11 pm
zoozzoom

I know I can convey my thoughts here and it is taken with respect. The only one I had a bit if a gripe with no matter how many times I tried to be polite and got snarky back was a babbler Called Brabblerabble or BR as the person was also known. No longer here though.
12:12 pm
hokie carla

it's really hard to read tone and intentions on this platform
12:13 pm

May I say, Chryst, I like the reason how you found babble!

1:08 pm
hokie carla

yep, read those
1:09 pm
hurshy

my friend lost to me in the sixth grade spelling bee when she misspelled amateur. we both read nancy drew, so i was like, how did you get that wrong, that word is in EVERY nancy drew book!
1:10 pm
hokie carla

haha. I wondered how the spelling bee guy could not include titian. had he never read nancy drew??
1:10 pm
72 Temple Owl

the artist?
1:11 pm
hokie carla

what does that mean?
1:11 pm
hurshy

indirectly, the artist. because he liked to paint red-headed women, red hair has come to be called "titian" color, and thus became a common adjective
1:11 pm
hokie carla

I just know every book described nancy drew as titian-haired.
1:12 pm
hurshy

was also sometimes used to describe Anne of GG
1:13 pm
hokie carla

just looked up the et8. now that kind of jarred my memory about the rabbit.

1:23 pm

1:24 pm
cybernan

on mmy way over :D
1:24 pm
hokie carla

one was vanilla M&M fudge (I believe you all call them smarties?) and one was vanilla cranberry orange fudge.
1:24 pm
cybernan

haven't made fudge for years
1:25 pm
hurshy

there's a fudge recipe that's quite simple, on the back of marshmallow bags, that uses marshmallows (obvs)
1:26 pm
hokie carla

I usually make chocolate fudge, but my youngest loves the M&M one and my mom likes the cranberry orange one, so I just made those. Can do chocolate at Xmas.
1:26 pm
hokie carla

when I make chocolate fudge I use the fantasy fudge recipe that used to be on the back of the marshmallow creme jar, hurshy.
