Re: Enigma Machine #34

HI, Hugh, & all...I just now at 11 PM, printed this off. Here's my first attempt: #6 "age before beauty", #7 "forest", #8 "somewhere over the rainbow", & #11 "orange juice". Will continue to ponder them.

OK, have a couple more...#3 is "flat out", #12 is "hand shake".

That's it for now!

Joan, you are bang on for #6, #7, #8 and #11, but #3 and #12 are a little off. Actually I think your answer for #3 is a possible alternate. I have 3 alternate answers for #3 and 2 alternates for #12 so there are lots of possibilities.

Cheers,

Hugh

Re: Enigma Machine #34

HI, Hugh... How about for #3 "line out", #12 "shakey hand" ?

Many ta's, Joan

Re: Enigma Machine #34

Well done Joan, I had the following, but was stuck with the others.

#1 Flamingo #3 line out #6 Age before beauty #7 Forest #8 Somewhere over the rainbow

Ranald

[Hugh]

Ranald that one for #3 is close, but #12 is not close enough. Good try though.

Cheers,

Hugh

[Hugh]

You got #1 Ranald as well as some of the others that Joan got already. Good sleuthing.

Cheers,

Hugh

Re: Enigma Machine #34

Hugh, on reflection.... #3 Outline ?

Ranald

[Rick]

Re: Enigma Machine #34

And I'll add #4 - Upbeat and #5 - Playin' the Game.

[Hugh]

Ranald that is very close to one of the answers but not spot on. Good try.

Cheers,

Hugh

[Hugh]

Right on both counts Rick you are on a roll.

Cheers,

Hugh

[Hugh]

On second thought Ranald, your answer is just as good as the ones Doug has. I would suggest it as an alternate answer. But there are still #2, #9, #10 & #12 waiting for answers.

Cheers,

Hugh

Re: Enigma Machine #34

Hi Hugh, I'll try two more.... #9 Blunderbuss - #12 Hand in hand

Note - blunderbus (one 's') not accepted by my spellchecker. Just checked using Chambers Dictionary, and they show two 'ss' !!

It is years since I heard, or used the word !

Oh, just thought.... #2 one from four is three, but four plus one is five. (not sure if this should be 4-1=3 and 4+1=5 ?

Ranald

[Hugh]

Correct Ranald on #9 & #12. Maybe I should correct the puzzle to include the other "s". I'm afraid that #2 is rather far out, so far out that I would be surprised if anyone got it. But #10 is still possible.

Cheers,

Hugh

Re: Enigma Machine #34

HI, all...The only thing in regards to #2 that I've thought of, is #2. "forty, thirty, fifty". It doesn't make sense, but a try.
