"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

Was the parcel from a retail business of any kind?

Is there anything else buried in the garden already?

Its a desert, a sandy and hot desert.

No

Nope, I'm just trying to make it as similar as possible to the shipwreck one. You have to think about these things in a certain way...

I need to narrow down what he's actually buried to get any further, so...

Were the contents of the parcel valuable?

Desert?
Or dessert?

Eats his way out?

I dunno

Yes

(have you heard this before?)

You ought to be ashamed of yourself, Garlic Bread! Where's the lateral thinking in that one?
