    Hi Hugh, just one... #1 Klondike Rush

    I think we may well have troubles over some of the others ?

      Re: Enigma Machine #61

      hi, guys!! Just got home from my oldest grandson's wedding...out of state! I printed this off, & believe that I found some answers. #4 is "increasing pain", #5 is "Big Carp in a small pond", & #8 is "greenhorn" or "Big greenhorn". Also #9 is "there's a light at the end of the tunnel". #12 is "tourney". Adding more: #2 is "tunics", #3 is "hot weather", i.e. heat in weather.




      Tks, Joan

        Good start Joan, but I'm only going to give you #2, #5, #8 & #9. I like your answer for #12 and think it should be an alternate. I'm thinking about #3 as an alternate answer too. There is a better answer for #4 which you know. Good work.

        Cheers,

        Hugh

          You are very close Ranald, but what kind of a rush was it?

          Cheers,

                    Sorry Joan & Ranald, but it is a very common expression at least in N. America and it is plural . Not sure about the UK.

                    Cheers,

                    Hugh

                        Hi, Hugh...I've been thinking over #5 would it be better as "Big fish in a little pond" ??? I had put carp previously. J

                            That's it exactly Joan, but I gave you credit for your answer.
