[markwh]

Find a word, number or phrase which connects the two parts of the clue (separated by semi-colons).
Example: Bo Derek ; Decimal. [Ans = 10]

I'm struggling with the following. Any answers or ideas would be most welcome;

1. Kingston ; Strawberries
2. Feline ; Weight
3. Pangram ; Sassoon
4. Kiosk ; PM
5. Diet ; Fastening
6. Batsman ; Right

I've got ideas for the following six, but would appreciate 2nd opinions; [I'll add my ideas in later, but don't want to colour anyone's judgement for now!].

7. Plymouth Argyle ; Measure
8. Beads ; Atomic
9 Door ; Jar
10. Unchained Melody ; Microsoft
11. 137 ; Churchill
12. Venice ; Ilkley

Many Thanks.

Mazie,
Thanks - I'm now torn between your suggestion and my own possible answer of "alphabet". Sassoon is a type of font often used for children's books, hence the (tenuous) link to alphabet.
I'm erring on the side of fox at present.
