Pigeonhole ?
Feather- Location : Scotland
Sorry--no, kk.
Kitkat
I wonder, could it be phonograme? (Yes, it's an old-fashioned word and an old-fashioned device, but I can't think of anything else!)
Feather- Location : Scotland
No,kk, but I'm going to check my word again in case I've made a mistake.
Feather- Location : Scotland
I've checked and there's no mistake.I thought you, of all people, would get this one.

Clue---think spiritually.
Whiskers
Is there such a thing as a psychphone? 
Feather- Location : Scotland
Not that I know of, Whiskers.
Stardust- Location : City of Light
Good try, Whiskers. 
It's driving me mad thinking I probably know this word but it just won't come to me.

Stardust---it's actually a French word. No more clues.
Stardust- Location : City of Light
Nope, my brain is steaming with the effort, Feather. 
Perhaps somebody else will find it (Kitkat?), but what happens if nobody does?
Is there a time limit before you're declared winner, having stumped everyone?

I'm thinking it must be wrong or else someone would have guessed it by now. Spirit messages!!
Kitkat
Best to copy it again cos it'll be going on to the next page soon ...! 
This one's got me well and truly stumped, Feather. Could you maybe just give us one more itsy bitsy clue before we all give up(?) Pretty pleeeeeeeease ......... I don't think there's any one of us here likes to give up too easily.

Aha! It must be planchette.
(Pretty sure that's correct.) That was a real brainteaser, Feather.

chaperon?
Kitkat
Yes, Whiskers! Chaperon is correct.
I thought that one would have run for a long time - mainly because chaperon is more commonly spelt with an 'e' on the end, but it's one of those words that is accepted with or without. (Little bit of a trick question there - I thought - so Whiskers, you did well to get that, and so quickly too!
