1:02 pm

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
1:12 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

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

Hello Trif. :-)

Good to ‘see’ youm

… 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

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

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