Right answer. Wrong reason.

You might as well. I'll tell you the reason I had in mind. The connection between the others is "nuts". Hazelnuts, brazil nuts and peanuts are all edible, but Welsh nuts is/was a type of coal.

thanks for explaining, I had no idea how Welsh fitted into my scheme, so there was a 50/50 chance 
I'll try to think of something new then.

Whoops, I ddn't see you had posted there!
Shall we leave them both on the go?

Sure, mine's easy anyway. So far, I've found one word for b

I'm always doing that.
You had a couple of good ones in there, Arty...
IQ Game
aka Bel - A87832164 Posted May 4, 2006
there's still more than one word missing, but here we go:
b=bubble
c =?
d=dodder/doddle
e=reefer
f=fluffy
g=giggle
h=?
i=?
l=lollop
m=mammon
n=?
o=Hootoo 
p=pepper
r=reerer
s=kisses
t=tatter
y=?
IQ Game
Icy North Posted May 4, 2006
Hmmm,
I'm not sure you can have Hootoo
The rest are OK, but I think you meant "rearer" rather than "reerer". (I had "errors", but that's what the DNA server does to me)
So we have remaining:
c = ?
h = ?
i = ?
n = ?
o = ?
y = ?
