Didn't know. Squelching is what I saw (words with Q in them are usually easier, don't you think?), but wasn't sure I was supposed to be looking for an anagram. Ignorant Yank.

aristo,many UK newspapers put on their puzzle page a wheel of letters around a central letter.The idea is to make as many words as possible in a certain time,but there is always one word that uses all the letters.The central letter has to be used in every word.Today's Sun had U as the central letter and it was above the usual standard for this publication.

You're not an ignorant Yank. I've got a real bad habit of jumping in with an answer when I'm not supposed to. Thought I'd done it again.
Thanks for the central letter tonyw.
