10:32 am

dcseain

that also got me the 10, thanks cig47

10:49 am

MollyL

I don't get it. The sa8 and the 10 are completely different words

10:49 am

dcseain

it got me looking in the right place.

11:13 am

ChampFit

New for me too, seain! thx for that.

11:20 am

bichon

hint, pls for the first 4 letter of the sa 8

11:25 am

ChampFit

If you're talking about the sa55 you should google it bichon.

11:25 am

bichon

ty CF, but I did

11:26 am

ChampFit

And you didn't see it? Came up for me.

11:26 am

bichon

sorry, have no idea

11:30 am

ChampFit

Try this: hard, wind carved ri 6/21s and grooves of snow that form across the polar plateau, ice sheets, and sea ice.

11:35 am

bichon

tyvm, but I'll just have to miss this one

11:45 am

crosshair

That ri word is a tough one, have the base word, but the grooves of snow elude me as well.

11:46 am

ChampFit

Different words crossy. We're talking about the sa8 55. The ri word is part of it's definition, not the words.

11:47 am

crosshair

Lol, now I'm really lost. Best hunt for other words for a bit.

11:48 am

crosshair

Nm found the sa 8/55 new word for me.

11:49 am

ChampFit

Same...whacky one.

11:50 am

crosshair

Learn something new every day. :)

11:51 am

BzznBea

Thanks for the sa8s

11:54 am

ChampFit

I am so blind, but now I see!!! FW! That took longer than it should've. ;) Anyone need anything? That sa is the worst of it, to me.

11:55 am

MollyL

11:55 am

ChampFit

That one's a bit obvious Molly. :)

11:55 am

5:30 pm
