"YABBER-LINER" - ALL ABOARD

I was trying to explain to MacT that 'Haver' was used in the Proclaimers song.'

To 'haver' (third-person singular simple present havers, present participle havering, simple past and past participle havered)
(Scottish) to talk foolishly; to chatter; talking nonsense; to babble.

I would have preferred 'maunder'. To speak in a disorganized or desultory manner; to prattle.

After all in1889 — Mark Twain, in 'A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, ch XVII' Wrote:

"What are you maundering about? He's going out from here a free man and whole—he's not going to Try." Or words to that effect.

I hope that clarifies my position viz-a-vie the juxtaposition of lexicon irregularities.

Enjoy your weekend.


Dutchy: If only!!!

okey dokey

Well that just clears everything up!

Hi mismi and stormy, I'm glad you girls speak tryagain's language, I'm still trying to unraffle his waffle.

unraffle his waffle? Hello...

what in the WORLD does that mean?

Hiya Stormy - still all snowy up there?

Something of tryagain must have rubbed off, you've got me scratching my head now. No snow here mismi, just glorious sunshine and 95 degrees.

What time is it there? Bloody Mary's for breakfast eh?



How are you Dutchy?

Is somebody cooking waffles?

Hiya mismi, yeah we have plenty of snow now. We got about 18 inches. That's enough for me for the winter!! Remy is not thrilled that his belly drags in it!

HI Dutchy...you hitting the sauce again?

I don't blame Remy one bit...sounds very uncomfortable. 18 inches. That is amazing. I have never in my life seen 18 inches of snow. Would not know what to do with myself.

shoot.

Wish I could package some up and send it to ya.

Just after midday mismi, time to open my first Corona, have my sliced lemon pieces ready. From this you can gather Dutchy is doing well.

Poor Remy, you will just have to carry him over that snow Stormy, you wouldn't like a wet and cold belly, would you now?

Me too sister. Oh well...you stay warm.

Dutchy - have one for me please...

hugs to you both. I have to go get a little boy from a birthday party...
see you later.

LOL...he's a big boy now, about 40 pounds!
Actually my husband snowblowed almost the entire front yard just so Remy doesn't have to potty in the snow....spoiled puppy!!!

See ya mismi.

Full marks to hubby, that's very commendable of him, must love his puppy and you.

Cheers mismi, will certainly do that,

I hope it was good...I miss my Corona...ma ma ma my corona.

What are you doing up so late? Bar is full of cold Corona's, love to spare you one.

Iceberg strike!

All hands to the pumps!

I think McT's been drinking as well

I was having insomnia Dutchy...and am still. I do that sometimes.

Oh dear mismi not you too, another friend of mine suffers this, and it is not funny. Hope our sleeping pattern returns soon. (((mismi)))
