Spelling it's easy ... it's pronouncing it that's tough. I see the second 'c' is pronounced like an 's' ... so pronounced 'flocsi ...' My current ambition is to introduce the word, casually into conversation : Rog That's interesting. I pronounce it in Latin . It starts Flokkinorki...if pronounced in the correct language. They don't do the soft C in Latin and the word is made up of Latin words. ETA this is the correct way to pronounce Flocci www.howtopronounce.com/latin/flocciAnd Nauci www.howtopronounce.com/latin/nauciThere are no soft C pronunciations in there at all.

Looks a little bit like an old English cuddlehound.

floccinaucinihilipilification /ˌflɒksɪˌnɔːsɪˌnɪhɪlɪˌpɪlɪfɪˈkeɪʃ(ə)n/ nounRARE the action or habit of estimating something as worthless.
On the site you can play a recording of the pronounciation ... definitely 'flocsi'

Thunder, lightning and torrential rain ... genuinely hammering on the roof.
Glad we cruised this morning when it was a bit grey, but dry and warm.
Hope everyone's tucked up dry avoiding the deluge.

Just moored on the Avon at Bath and the heavens opened... thankfully only for a short spurt of time.

En-route to Bristol yes. Floating Harbour doesn't do bookings - first come first served sort of thing. Told to phone Netham lock when about to leave Hanham lock and they will hopefully sort things for me...

Heavy rain, thunder and lightening here earlier. Quite pleasant now. Sitting on the Ashby trying to decide where to head next. Can’t decide between Stratford, Llangollen or maybe the Nene. Something we have noticed, this year we have become a little indecisive. Age or the pandemic I wonder?
