4tk writes.... Good Pete would you like to try for a second word.

LOL, I wish I had the time. (Hey Luckky, you're bored, try one of these). I write a lot here (at the computer). Have a lot of pastoral work to do. Some housework too.

But something like this stimulates the brain. I have found a side activity like this helps when it comes to other tasks.

Ok, but please give me a hint- what letter will it start with, or, perhaps more difficult, what letter does it end with?

For this other one I figured a word with "the" in it helps. "Other" is at least three words.

God bless,
Pete
