Hi guys,

Been playing e-mail hangman with a friend in the U.S. and he's got me stumped with this phrase...

R _ _ _ E R
_ _ _ Y
_ _ _ _ Y
_ _ _ P E R S

clue: Things

I've used up these letters: C E I P R S T Y and have no more tries.

Any help would be much appreciated. Can't lose to a damn yankee!

Thanks!

B for my first guess.
Think the second one would be baby and the last one diaper

I've already used "I" so it can't be diapers and I've got no more "goes"!

Give the credit to HankScorpio, I would never have thought of it otherwise!

I can extract a passage from my old man's PhD thesis if you like, "metal ion catalysis of the transamination reaction". That'll **** im!

If you want a real killer, I've often put Mr. MXYZTPLK, who was one of Superman's enemies who came from the 5th dimension, and could only be sent back by tricking him into saying, or spelling his name backwards:
It usually wins for me.
