Resin
Orris

[Puzzled001]

rosin, as in the resin used on violin bows

orris- gold lace

[Puzzled001]

sorry it's' resin 'as in risen reversed

[bimbo123456]

Why orris? Is ris some sort of lace?

[Puzzled001]

sorry again could it still be rosin as in almost rose no' e 'plus trendy as 'in'

[middlestump]

man reportedly could be boris(s) - did not start leads to orris

[bimbo123456]

OK...I get the boris thing but there is only one r is boris and what's with the lace?

[mad_ferrit]

And "man reportedly" = Horace (reportedly = sounds like) "did not start" = take off the H leaves you with ORRIS which is a type of gold / silver lace.

[Puzzled001]

man did not start-- morris without the 'm' -start of man is 'm'

[bimbo123456]

sorry, should have got off lazy bum and looked in dictionary. Just shows that if you google you don't always get the answer. Orris shows a root product. Silly me and thanks to all for bearing with me

[middlestump]

puzzled's morris is better than my boris - solves the r problem

[novalis]

Agree with Puzzled101 re Rosin.
