An Eleven Letter Word












9














A single one, just to heat things up a bit:




1-2-3 is a tree I'd much prefer (to vulgar ash)



4 is actually fifth in line, the second of its kind, for me (but sixth for Cyril)



5-6-7 is 1-2-3's eastern cousin, but not as big (and much more tasty)



8-9 is trust in hospitality (stock up on it)



10-11, I'm unsure (of what to say)




If no-one gets it by tomorrow I'll drop another hint.
