Gnathic combative
GNATHIC-COMBATIVE because I was so married to ‘COMBATIVE WILL WORK, YES IT WILL’ – late this morning because there’s a wedding going on and I have already safety pinned a dress, directed people, hoovered leaves out of reception, left a message for a contractor who hasn’t made it in, and helped to move a rough sleeper from in front of the doors (the cafe offered coffee and a croissant).
Can’t wait to see what’s next.
Gnathic, adj. – relating to the jaw.
RF and Kanishk, hope to see you soonest, my lovelies.
Good luck, all, and happy Friday!
Miss Irim, you have an interesting life, so many things happen in your day. I wish different things happen to me each day. Way to go Miss Irim.
OA for me. See you soon Kanishk-boy.
My very best wishes to the newlyweds; may they know every possible joy in their life together!
I’ll pass that on – they were lovely! The one hurdle I fell at was finding the pastor a sharpened pencil – or a pencil sharpener. It’s always the small things.
But the wedding went off perfectly, so absolutely thrilled for them.
Combat thieving
Since HOMOGENIC was mysteriously not accepted (OED, MW etc), same with THEOGONIC, I went with
ENTHEOGENIC COMBATIVE as well.
This appears to be one of those rare days when I am the first one in with the OA. Call it the time zone penalty.
Nope, sadly – Radioactive Flower above had the OA about 4 hours earlier!
Missed that. Are these time UTC?
I’m u s central , always wondered if any posters are pacific time
