makoto Forum Champion Registered: Wed Sep 04 2002 Posts: 5663 Loc: Brum	Each pair of words has a missing word between them that acts as a link to both (e.g. FRONT -DOOR- MAT). The initial letters of the six answers(reading downwards) will spell out the surname of a famous scientist. 1. HOT - - - - PAPER 2. KNIFE - - - - WAYS 3. DOWN - - - - FALL 4. LIGHT - - - - - STONE 5. FRENCH - - - - DAY 6.BUTTON - - - - STUD Hope you all enjoy this ,please answer one at a time Thanks - - - indicates the number of letters for each word. _________________________
