Sudoku Puzzles

... so I could

I, too, had nome - by the same method and for the same reason as Judy! A word I wouldn't have thought about for yonks bar the odd word target!

Slept in again - nice!

Ian posted around Christmas that he and Anne would be taking off after Christmas, I believe.

I came up with some words without looking any up and was going to post them with my sad humour in brackets behind - e.g. nome (a headless garden statue), moke (smoke minus an s)....
Now you can see why I didn't post them!

Thank you Amelia and Kate (Ku-ring-gi). I guess I missed Ian's post about his travels. I'm pleased that all is well and that he and Anne are just out gallivanting around.

Hey CP I would have if I had thought that way, very funny.

Well, I got snuckered into taking my niece and nephew! And it had to be in 3d no less. Because of my niece's social schedule we couldn't do the IMax experience which I know her brother will rag her about. I'm taking some cotton so my ears won't be totally assaulted!

See! Kate used 'yonks'!! I am vindicated!
I shall leave you all with my head held high....

I had nome but I thought of Nome, Alaska! It's located on the southwestern tip of Seward Peninsula in Alaska!

I meant the movie Avatar! My niece said it's the one I HAD TO SEE! (Her words and inflection) Said that she would take me just so I would have company and then her brother said that he hoped I wouldn't mind if he invited himself to the date as well. Had to do it today because nephew leaves for Japan tomorrow and niece for Sacramento.

Good morning all.
Kathy - you are only partially vindicated - the word we use in Australia is 'yonks', meaning - a long time - as in 'Haven't seen you in yonks'. So, to be pedantic, there wasn't an 's' in MONKEY so you are reduced to the perhaps vulgar British term. Hehehe!
I had 'keno' as More...

Moke is also the name for a sall vehicle with flimsy roof and side supports, and canvas sides popular in the 70s, and in some beach resorts still.

sMall vehicle - a Mini Moke!

My hubby had a Mini Moke, CP. Worse than that, it was green!

I worked on Fiona's puzzle for a while. For 4. I got mam ... so that would have been wrong. For 8. I got ballad ... the b and d are mirror images, I figured that was even better. 11. and 12. completely baffled me, so I didn't send anything in.

Happy Birthday Redkat - enjoy you special day!

'your' special day!!

Here I go again....

A century post!!!!

cp, can I ask, how do you know when you've reached the top of the next page? Love your tigger jump. Melbourne is a lovely cool 20 at the moment, but heading for 28, then the heat will be upon us for the weekend.

I think I'm becoming a sadist I've been watching the flies go into the fly trap and dying, gives me a lot of pleasure I hate them that much. LOL

CynB, I also had Keno but thought it was only what they called the game here in Aussie, we live and learn on this site don't we.

Debs, there are 40 comments each page at the top tells you how many we are up to, so get ready to post if you see we are heading for the next page.

Debs - there are 40 posts to the page so #41, #81, #121 etc are the top of the new page. The number of comments so far is listed at the top of the page. Nice to see you posting.

Snap, Amelia!

Oh I see..thanks Amelia & CynB for that. I was just curious as to how people knew.

Debs - you wouldn't believe it. I just submitted some new avatars for approval last night. One is almost the same as yours but is a picture of the sign. I didn't realise you had that one so I won't use mine - I have plenty of others.

CynB..I didn't know you have to submit them for approval. I just found the picture and attached it. We must be on the same wave length in picking avatars.

The IRS decides to audit Grandpa, and summons him to the IRS office.

The IRS auditor was not surprised when Grandpa showed up with his attorney.

The auditor said, 'Well, sir, you have an extravagant lifestyle and no
full-time employment, Which you explain by saying that you win More...

Colo Jim - I love to see the tax man get what he deserves. Love it!

Apparently marram is regarded as a weed in Australia in the few places it habituates. Along with many other things introduced by early settlers ...

Long gaps tonight. Won't annoy anyone by cp'ing to the end of the page and the pounce - gonna have an early night.
Goodnight!

I fell asleep early yesterday, and slept for 7 hours. Now I'm up and playing with the computer. I'll go back to bed for another nap in a little while, but I had to read the posts first.
