You will puzzle over some of these, but they are fairly straightforward. Good puzzling!

Re: Enigma Machine #74

Hey, all....as I just got home & printed this off, I have few so far, #6 "tongue in cheek", #12 "divided in two".

Thanks, Joan

[Hugh]

Good start Joan, right on both.

Cheers,

Hugh

Here it is Tuesday and only 2 answers! Is everyone enjoying their weekend?

Where is everybody? No new posts on ES and no new solutions to EM74. What is not going on? At this rate EM74 will be up next week as well.

Cheers,

Re: Enigma Machine #74

Hi Hugh - I'm currently in the throes of moving house and haven't been near the computer for a few days. Bit of a lull now, so this is my first look in at these. I expected to find most of them solved, but I'll see if I can jog things along a bit. Joan's got #6 and #12, so: #2 "Toeing the line", #3 "Terminate, #4 "Pins 'n' needles", #5 "Trinket", #7 "Landmine", #8 "Gringo", #9 "Printer", #10 "Laryngitis", & #11 "Laminated".
Now working on a ridiculously complicated solution for #1, hopefully one of the others will save me the embarrassment of posting it.
Cheers, John.

[Hugh]

John to the rescue again. Glad you had some time to help finish this puzzle. You are again 100%
John. Keep on working on #1.

Cheers,

Hugh

Re: Enigma Machine #74

Hey all...for some reason, my brain "cooked up" the solution to #1, "On Mt. McKinley". Perhaps it was reading of all of John's Correct answers!!

Thanks, Joan

[Hugh]

Sorry Joan, but that is not the solution according to Doug.

Cheers,

Hugh

Re: Enigma Machine #74

Hi Hugh

Thanks for the answers, but I do not see how #1 'MtM' gives 'dant' ?

Ranald

[Hugh]

It's COMM and ANT Ranald.

Re: Enigma Machine #74

Hi Hugh - this was one of the possibilities I thought of and discarded; like Ranald I was thrown off by the lack of a 'd' in the clue. I thought "and" was a bit sneaky for an "in"sider! Something to watch out for in future.
Thanks for the answer though. - John.

[Hugh]

I think Doug had a tendency to be sneaky, so keep that in mind.

Cheers,

Hugh
