Hi Pooksahib,
The first seven words are all of four letters.
I love your name by the way,what does the "POOK"
mean?

Thanks Jerry. The name's a tribute to one of my favourite authors, Peter Pook. Not well known, wrote lots of comic, semi-autobiographical books where his name usually featured in the title. Pooksahib covered his stint in the Indian Navy.

Thanks everyone. With 'four-letter words' it gave me the R for 'road test' so Well Done, much appreciated.
