"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

In so many ways.

What? Is that it?

"He was grateful he ws put in prison. Why?"


That's the question?

His violent and nagging wife? That would make any man grateful to be put in the slammer.

He was grateful that he was put in prison.

Natural Disaster?

Prison medical found something that would have killed him otherwise because he wouldn't have recieved treatment?

Surely we have the gist of it by now?

Erm...what's the question again?

I can't be bothered checking. I know! I'm a lazy cretin but can you re-post it please, Ros?
