At a recent quiz the question posed was - What is the ONLY English word 8 letters long containing only one vowel? The answer given was strength but my wife came up with cyclists. Any others?

. . . not forgetting the longest word of them all, 'SMILES' which has a mile between the S's. (with apologies!)
