Thanks everybody for help . I'm off for a long, hopefully nice weekend - and nothing that interesting

I think I agree with you flatlander that it's easier to walk round holes, but I guess I'm lazy/clumsy at walking around holes (see point 4), and this hole tends to be on a major road for me.

I've had four things sorted out:

1. There isn't a show word for sound.

2. There are other words to circumvent the problem, ie 'kithe' (tsuwm), 'evinced' (belleyouth) and 'sound' (B96) inter alia.

3. There are some potential hole fillers, ie 'list' (RC) and 'asound' (RC).

4. I should be concerned that my cranial barrel has ullaged and my pulmonary hull has flooded, 'though it does explain a thing or two...

Have a nice weekend all!!

PS what exactly are the sounds of Lancaster RC, and are they worth an 'ear?
