7 words should come with a time waster warning. Worse than Angry Birds. I should not have done it!

At the moment i am really enjoying ad free words with friends.
One more question ...do you play with people or computer with scrabble app?
Also, i miss bridgebaseonline - which I cannot play easily with ipad. Any other good bridge app where you play with people?

Love to hear people's opinions.

Gert, I hope you mean by time waster,7 little words is totally addictive! I agree it needs to come  with a warning!

Hi Gretchen, - yes it is a Torres Strait Pigeon. The photo was taken a couple of years ago at The Dome in Cairns.

As for apps. I have deleted all the apps that I can get addicted to. I know I could spend hours on them and so it's best to delete and avoid the tempation.

I love 7 little words too. Good for short burst of free time as well as being totally addictive.

I'm a total sucker for 7 little words. I have pretty much bought all the levels so far and whenever the kids go to bed, I do my word games as I don't really watch much TV in the evening at all as there's a huge amount of shows currently on TV that don't interest me. If I'm not doing word games I'm invariably reading cookbooks at night- my bedside table is groaning under the weight of my pile of cookbooks already. Between my cookbooks, this forum and work I'm almost thinking about what to cook or actually cooking food most of the day!!! The power of thermie to alter your mind!!!!

Yeah I have been playing it while watching the tennis with the sound off.

You can also get the iTV app to watch some shows on the ABc like Whites which I am enjoying very much. A bit of a spoof on Marco Pierre White. All happening in his kitchen and restaurant. Very funny.

Now what is a 9 letter word for super kitchen machine?😌

Friend told me about My fitnesspal.   A programme to help count calories.  Great help when on a diet.  App was free, put it on the iPad.

7 little words sounds dangerous. Is it like scrabble or a crossword?
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
