Hello All,
Stuck on these.
Add three letter word to the words in capitals to form a new word.
They enjoyed FIGN holidays.
The old lady collected her SION.
The professor had a strange ORY.
Many thanks,

I like that one better than "memory" and my totally incorrect "history"!

The missing word has to be a genuine 3-letter word. MEMORY is just a joke, because MEM is not a word. As faitaccompli says, hisTORY is actually wrong, because you are only provided with ORY not TORY.
