[JandyAF]

Thanks very much to you all.

[frugalfred]

Insurance/insurer; assurance/assurer - covered in that sense.

[Wharton]

Are you all sure about this :-)

[frugalfred]

Wharton - I think the word "right" signifies the "R" on the end of the word.

[frugalfred]

Ah, just noticed your emoticon, Wharton!

[Wharton]

frugalfred - I was being fAcEtIOUs - now try and think of another word where the vowels come in alphabetical order :-)

[frugalfred]

how about "abstemious", which I am not!?

[Wharton]

frugalfred - just noticed your reply - ignore my drivel :-)

[Wharton]

^not that one, this is getting too fast for me :-)

[frugalfred]

Je vais a mon lit. Bonsoir.
