    As a teacher, I think it would be unfair of me to answer - so I shall practise being abstemious...

    Sorry, no. An escapologist is often umpiring.

    Answering easy inquiry often upsets.

    At least two people know the answer and the clues are getting harder to produce... <laugh>

    Is it anything to do with the comparatively open configuration of the vocal tract, with vibration of the vocal cords but without audible friction?

    I knew the answer, but didn't have time to set a question, or check for posts. Sounds as if I was lucky there. :emoticon-0136-giggl

    I go in on Tuesday for a 'nil by mouth' session - operation on Wednesday morning. I'm hoping the Hospital wi-fi has improved enough to let me tune in to Hornet Player for the Saints match - or they let me escape earlier than last time so I can watch at home.

    Who was the Lone Ranger?
