Only three different vowels, two of which appear three times each, no other letters being repeated Correction to the previous hint: the whole clue is the direct with no word play involved.

All those consecutive vowels in the final word should be a pretty big hint...

Oh I see, this is a British clue. How about... cutting the queue?

Close, but no cigar yet: it may well be the British version of your answer... wink I did it British! I used the word "queue". Nobody says that in America. It appears only in crossword puzzles. So the problem is "cutting"

The British expression is indeed "jumping the queue," and you have certainly earned the Belt: keep at it and we may even have you speaking properly soon Sue... ===[**CDM**]=== PS You can blame the French for the word queue, meaning tail
