s7/44 yummmmm!
12:25 am
Atalante

2:44 am
jo145

I think it looks like the only 7 too!
3:00 am
jo145

I'm stuck after 70 words, so looks like a small Babble today, still I'm on holiday so have all day!

Yesterday, at 07:17 pm Mary said...
"As an afterthought, I have a total of 96 words and I've been at it practically all day except for stopping to cook, eat, etc. How do you all get all of the words."

For me, it is mostly a matter of "Try anything, however unlikely". Like yesterday's "diazole": I had the zole, so I just tried the diazole, for it sounded like a remotely possible word, and it took it. Don't know if I would have found it by using a clue!
Also, puzzling a lot expands your knowledge of the more unusual words - some I find because they have come by before in another grid or puzzle. Like the stupid "aarrgh" thing.
And when you get really stuck at the end, the a2zwordfinder can be a help (it uses the same dictionary as babble).

sprite

Looks like you are right, jo145 - 38 words and already having a hard time. Can't be more than 80 words or so.
Only that one 7 Bash found, and 2 6s so far: A6/27 and V6/27.
3:31 am

4:18 am
Crooty

That's true... I kind of forgot about Babble while I was away... but I must try and refrain, otherwise I'm going to spend my days here: no good. ;-)
4:32 am
Atalante

4:53 pm
now I'm 12

MammaJill, thank you. I'll look for it.
4:55 pm

Thank you boober...got that one. Hope MammaJill gets that too.
5:03 pm
now I'm 12

didn't find the V6, and my mum says I've to go to bed now cos it's after 11
5:04 pm
MammaJill

Thanks boober!
5:05 pm
boober

now i'm 12: the other one is a6/27 and it means a young fish; fry - v6/27 is the plural form of a stringed instrument from India- would really like help with my last f5- please!!
5:11 pm
boober

nite ! now i'm 12
5:14 pm
now I'm 12

nite. Thanks for your help, but still didn't get it. Mum's nagging now!
5:17 pm
sprite

boober: there are 2 F5/16s. One is the plural of an F4/7, so I guess that is the one you have. The other is a verb, meaning "disturb, upset, embarrass". It is not the most usual spelling of it, though. Probably you find it faster by taking one of your E4/4s and add on that.
5:19 pm
now I'm 12

Wooohooo got a/6 Thank you! :-)
5:23 pm
boober

sprite: thank you so much! I have never heard of the word before- thanks again- only 2nd time completing a puzzle
5:41 pm
sprite

Feels good, doesn't it, boober? ;-)
9:39 pm
Bash

Got the 2 6's from boober's clues - any clues for the one I'm missing?
