TY FOR ALL CLUES. GETTING LOTS OF WORDS! YEAH!!! GREAT CLUERS TODAY.

1:02 pm

mkg

i did find the bottom row E word! ty. was a babblet for sure.

1:04 pm

mkg

the only blank i have now is the top row middle R. it says 0/0.........so what is the story? any ideas?

1:04 pm

mkg

it is grey. does this mean no words? i assume so.

1:05 pm

mkg

i just dont recall seeing 0/0 in the blank tiles. must be my memory

1:06 pm

mkg

need 50 more words to be half way. ugh

1:10 pm

mkg

40 more

1:12 pm

mkg

30 more...moving right along

1:12 pm

MetFan

If a tile is greyed, and says "0/0" it means there are no words that begin with that letter, but the letter may still be used in other words.

1:13 pm

mkg

ty. after so long doing this grid somehow today i first noticedthe 0/0/ weird. ty.

1:16 pm

mkg

20 more to half way.

1:18 pm

MetFan

I stopped at 3AM with exactly half of the grid done. Now I'm going in for the rest.

1:18 pm

hello friends.

1:32 pm

clg47

396 words & 7338 pts. I checked the stats on Lickety and in April there was a grid with 744 words & 13,761 pts. I probably didn't finish that one. 7,304 total grids - around 20 years. Glad I found Babble about 10 years ago.

1:32 pm

Trifioso

well done you! That is indeed impressive!

1:33 pm

Soodle

Hello Trif. :-)

1:34 pm

Trifioso

SOODLE!!!!! my dearest one of all!

1:34 pm

Soodle

Good to ‘see’ youm

1:34 pm

Soodle

… my friend….

1:35 pm

Trifioso

you too! half of Eire is heading our way in November for secondo's big wedding - you didn't meet her, she sat that trip out

1:36 pm

Soodle

Oh boy! That’s exciting Trif. Mother of the Bride is a very important role.

1:37 pm

Trifioso

agreed. I am very much looking forward! My daughter that you met is getting married in October to the boy she was with on that trip!!! Sadly, I am no more than a guest at that weeding.

1:38 pm

Trifioso

and look at you, plural grammy and all!

1:38 pm

Soodle

My goodness. All three ‘off the books’ already? Where does the time go?

1:38 pm

Trifioso

right? whoosh

1:41 pm

Trifioso

are you having a heat wave there? We are just about to

1:41 pm

Soodle

Meanwhile I’m looking forward (not) to a total hip replacement surgery in the coming weeks. I’ve been in denial for years, but finally had to admit that I’m banjaxed. I was dismayed but gratified to be told I have chronic osteoarthritis in my right hip & the left one’s ‘not too far behind it’

1:42 pm

Trifioso

soodle, soodle, soodle, HOW many times did I tell you the pole dancing would catch up to you? shaking my head....

1:42 pm

Trifioso

seriously though, all best mercies for your health through it all.

1:43 pm

Trifioso

I hope you are saying, "Why did I wait so long?" soon!

1:43 pm

Soodle

I think it was jumping off the wardrobe that finally did me in.

1:43 pm

Trifioso

that will do it

1:44 pm

Trifioso

here's a fun thing - do you get apple tv over there?

1:45 pm

Soodle

Thanks Trif. Glorious, glorious weather here. Long may it last. Of course, now everybody’s moaning it’s too hot…. Yep. I have Apple TV. Are you going to recommend something?

1:45 pm

Trifioso

If you get a show "Widow's Bay" pay close attention to the dying guy in episode 6 - it's Mike!!!!

1:46 pm

Soodle

Oh my word. I will definitely watch it & keep an eye out for him. Is it a speaking part?

1:47 pm

Trifioso

nope, just wheezing and dying, lol

1:49 pm

Soodle

I’m with an ‘Extras’ agency. I absolutely love it when I get a call. The roar of the greasepaint - the smell of the crowd! I’ve been in Fair City - an absolutely abysmal home grown soap here. The buzz of a TV set is exhilarating. Good for Mike

1:50 pm

Trifioso

it seems to have become his niche - oh, you need a skinny, dying guy? Get Enright!

1:50 pm

Trifioso

it is his "retirement hobby" and he is having so much fun!

1:50 pm

Soodle

Bless him. Typecast!

1:50 pm

Trifioso

someone's gotta do it

1:51 pm

Trifioso

I need to get back over - I MISS Ireland, so much

1:52 pm

Soodle

This is awful Trif. I haven’t seen you in ages & now I have to run. Great catching up with you. ((((Huge hugs))))

1:52 pm

Trifioso

big hug right back! xoxo
