Mornin' Sprite! Can you please give me stats for that pesky K?

1:35 am

sprite

ko4/8, and hi :)

1:36 am

mattygroves

Thank you! How are you this morning? It's wet here today. It is England, I guess

1:36 am

mattygroves

And I should have seen that K. Doh!

1:36 am

sprite

same here, wet and grey. I have the flu, not feeling very chipper

1:37 am

mattygroves

Ooof, I'm sorry - wishing you a speedy recovery

1:37 am

sprite

thanks. This too shall pass ;)

1:37 am

mattygroves

Like kidney stones ;) (May none of us ever have those!)

1:38 am

sprite

ugh indeed, I have heard they are very very painful

1:38 am

mattygroves

Yep, I've heard the same. Something we definitely do not need

1:54 am

sprite

phantom: shadow

1:57 am

dofith

Had a few of those some years ago ( i.e., kidney stones.) Some too big to pass - they got stuck on their way down ureter - rather painful.

1:57 am

sprite

ouch, that sounds horrible!

2:00 am

dofith

It wasn't fun - they go in a blast them to bits and put in a stent in ureter for a week or so. The give away, apart from the pain, is wee the colour of a nice red wine!

2:01 am

mattygroves

Years ago, there was an igNobel awarded for a team that discovered that kidney stones can be shifted by riding in the back of one specific roller coaster in Florida

2:01 am

sprite

nightmarish! I hope you will never ever get them again.

2:02 am

sprite

hm, shifted... does not necessarily mean you can pass them. Might even make it worse.

2:03 am

dofith

lol, matty! Wish I'd known - a trip to Florida paid by health insurance sounds ok.

2:05 am

dofith

I won't, sprite - turned out kidneys were great, but 2 of my 4 parathyroid glands were stuffed = blood calcium stuffed = kidney stones!

2:06 am

sprite

ah good!

2:09 am

dofith

It was interesting!

2:10 am

sprite

hmmm I get that, but if I get a vote, I would rather be spared that kind of interesting :D

2:12 am

dofith

I'm with you there!

2:16 am

sprite

when our son was being born, I had this weird calcified thingy that was in the way... also very interesting, all the hospital doctors came to feel, ugh. I am not a fan of interesting when it comes to medical stuff.

2:26 am

MollyL

10:52 am

hokie carla

it was actually ready before the storm but the lady wrote my phone number down wrong. so it sat out there during the TS and aftermath and was absolutely covered in dirt and debris.

10:53 am

ChampFit

That's a bummer.

10:53 am

moolingwa

well could've been worse :)

10:54 am

hokie carla

yep, lucky it didn't flood

10:54 am

moolingwa

tyrade - anger at having to change your tyre :)

10:54 am

ChampFit

Or have something fall on it!

10:54 am

hokie carla

yep

10:56 am

hokie carla

for some reason started on the bottom row and can't seem to manage the O

10:56 am

moolingwa

one of favourite comedy lines is:

In Scotland it's considered bad luck if a rowan tree falls on your car

10:56 am

moolingwa

I'm almost half way through the grid

10:57 am

ChampFit

Molly clued it earlier. It's an oo

10:57 am

doseffing

implying of course that if some other kind of tree falls on your car it isn't bad luck?

10:57 am

hokie carla

thanks, was pretty sure it had to be oo but good to know for sure

10:57 am

ChampFit

That's helpful for some grids, moo. We have that ro occassionally

10:58 am

moolingwa

indeed

11:00 am

Gillie

11:04 am

ChampFit

Look at 9:23 it was phae, not Molly.

11:04 am

hokie carla

11:05 am

Gillie

ru said that if he had aslindy's coasters(?) his friends would think he was a letch

11:06 am

Gillie

12:45 pm

5:40 pm

hurshy

hurshy

no, my only un-greyed T is the corner, left

6:34 pm

hurshy

i did not see you say "TH7 x2" i saw you say "th7 is the last 7" and i wasn't sure if you missed Gillie calling th7

6:34 pm

hurshy
