"A puzzle for yous all..."

My first is in biscuit but never in cake
My second's in awesome but not in great
My third is in mother but not seen in dad
My fourth is in sunny but never in sad
My fifth is a vowel found in water not creek
My sixth is found only in one day of the week
My seventh's two of three that you learn when you're young
My eighth's not in song but it's there when it's sung
My ninth's in eleven and twelve, not thirteen
My tenth is in island and river, not stream
My eleventh's in precious and secret and paste
My twelfth is in phantom and spectre and haste
My whole stalks the night in a quiet dreamlike state
With no memories the next day of being out late

Gotta go to the shops now though, so I suspect you'll be done first. Be right badk...

right, I'm gonna write a C program to compare it against a dictionary file.

aarrgg. Thats evil!

I will point out I got this one from a riddles page with something like 500 riddles in their database.

This was one of their only two unsolved riddles ;)

(And yes, this means I don't know it yet either. Working on it at the mo...)

No "O" for the third one...

My thoughts exactly!

if second is R
first is probably C or D
followed by a vowel? O or E
then a consonant N, G, H, B, R
then O
then R again

Hmmph
