Re: Enigma Machine #56

Hey, fellows...Since I've "struck out" on most of these this time, how about a sign saying "Go to the back of the elevator" on #9. J

[Hugh]

Sorry but those are not the signs suggested by the clue, but keep at it you will get it eventually.

Cheers,

Hmm. Where I come from, elevators hold grain, so the signs were things like "Saskatchewan Wheat Pool" or "United Grain Growers", with the names of little towns on the front. Most of those are gone now, and so are most of the little towns. But if it's a "lift", all I can think of is "Up", "Down" and "Freight", none of which seem to fit. Back to the drawing board I guess!

[Hugh]

Sounds like a prairie lad talking. The sign I'm referring to is the one when the elevator (not a grain one) is not working. The elevator is.................

Cheers,

Re: Enigma Machine #56

You're too kind Hugh. Such a "lift" would have to be an "Elevator Out of Order". Have a good weekend everyone!

[Hugh]

Great Rick, you finished it off! I don't need to think up any more clues. See you Sunday with the next one I hope.

Cheers,

Hugh
