Couldn't be bothered to read all this thread so somebody has propably got this already. If not - it's bOOK-KEEper. But I reckon it's just the slightest bit of a cheat because;
i) the hyphen
ii) there's another word - BOOK-KEEPING.
Here's an easier one.
What are the only two words in the English language that have each and every vowel once (and only once) and in the right order?
I.E. - AEIOU. Sorry about the I.E. which I fully accept is more than somewhat confusing. There' no Y. And do you KNOW WHY. Because I say so.
Hi Mississippi,
WELL DONE! I shall have to think of a suitable reward!!
Now then clever clogs, here is the next something for the weekend:
A zoo keeper notices a man who is disturbing his lions. The zoo keeper leaves the man alone. However when he comes back the man has gone. In his place is a hat and some buttons. The lions haven't eaten him. What has happened???

Hi,
Missi- Almost there, not quite.
Hi John L,
Yeh, your right, bookeeper was the answer, but I never got the answer. Your poser, good one, give us a clue!!!

Am really bad at clues, either giving such hard ones you're none the wiser or else such easy ones I might just as well tell you the answer. However, here goes:
Clue for word one: Such a person might often be found with his tongue in his cheek, sarcistically.
Clue for word two: By nature, most writers are not this - for example, Hemingway, Dylan Thomas. I'm certainly not though, as you don't know me from Adam, that ain't much help.
Did anyone get the word with the six letters in it?
Hi John,
Like the clues so here goes: Clue one........Facetious.
Clue two..........abstemious.
Yeah Mississippi got the answer...........indivisibility.
