Guess the word
Kitkat
Feather wrote:Yeah!!!
What?!!!
That was just a very half-hearted last jab, just because it was a word that fitted in there, but not thinking that it was the actual word you're looking for! 
Oh well ... I'm not quite prepared now to be thinking of a new word ... gimme a little while to think of one.

Well, can we have a little clue ... Are the last 4 letters correct? i.e. work ?
Stardust- Location : City of Light
Yes, Kitkat. Another clue: think e.g. gardens.
Better find this one soon or I'll be away.

I've got it! (I think) ... Groundwork ! ?
Stardust- Location : City of Light
Feather got it right, it's "spadework". 
Kitkat your "groundwork" doesn't begin with an S and has 10 letters, not 9.
I've gotta go now, ladies, have fun without me and enjoy your festive weekend.

Too many of those chocolate liqueurs
- Your fault, Stardust! ETA: Stardust brought a box of choccie liqueurs into the Chat Box... there was no-one else in there when I was there to share them with - so I've eaten them all!

porringer ?
Stardust- Location : City of Light
Coo, yes Kitkat, that was quick - I was expecting to give another clue before somebody found that one.
Feather- Location : Scotland
I confess I'd never heard of that word. 
Stardust- Location : City of Light
I thought you might know it, Feather, since it's used to serve up porridge.
Just checked and Collins English dictionary has:
"Porringer: a small dish, often with a handle, used to serve soup, porridge, etc.
Word origin: changed from Middle English potinger, poteger, from old French potager, from potage soup, contents of a pot, see pottage."
The origin of the word porridge, from Collins:
"Variant (influenced by Middle English porray pottage) of pottage".

Oops, I edited that because porringer is not the origin of the word porridge after all, but before I posted up the edited version you'd already replied, Kitkat. (See my previous post above).

Haven't yet found a word that fits, Kitkat, and I suppose it's the same for everyone.
Still got the little grey cells working on it though.

I was thinking conspirational or conspiratorial but they're 14 letters.Feather wrote:12 letters

So perhaps conspirative ? Oops, no, that ends in an "e" not an "l".
Oh dear, off to have another think...
Feather- Location : Scotland
You're right,of course, Stardust.I got the number of letters wrong.The answer is "conspiratorial".Sorry.x.
Stardust- Location : City of Light
Haha, Feather, it is very difficult to count the letters when there are more than 10, because as soon as you blink you have to start over again.
