    Re: Enigma Machine 9

    HI, all...working on getting house ready for another showing....here's a few answers, #1 "add insult to injury", #2 "three blind mice", #"last but not least", #4 "little shaver", #5 "box seat", #9 "in a nutshell", #10 "sweep it under the rug". Guess that's all, folks!!!

      I'll give you 100% on all except #9 which needs a little more. Good start Joan!

      Cheers,

            Interesting answer Ranald but it is not the one from Doug. Right Joan, that is it.

            Cheers,

            Hugh

                Right Joan, that leaves #6, #8, #11 & #12.

                  Re: Enigma Machine 9

                  Hi Hugh and the others; a few tries for what's left: #6 "Bending over backwards", #11 "Leftovers", and #12 "Growing by leaps and bounds".
                  - Cheers all, John.

                    Good work John, that leaves only #8 to finish. It is a little tricky.

                    Cheers

                      Hi Hugh, here is my silly answer for the last one...... #8 "Can of tea"

                        Ranald you have a very fertile mind to come up with these answers but you and Doug are on different wavelengths. That unfortunately is not Doug's answer.

                        Cheers,

                        Hugh

                          Hi again Hugh; a suggestion for #8: "Gordian knot" (i.e. one that has been cut.)
                          - Cheers, John.

                            What a brilliant answer John, but that is not Doug's (maybe an alternate), sorry.

                            Cheers,

                            Hugh

                              HI, again, fellas....My Girl Scout background (many years!) has saved the day. #8 is "square knot".

                              Sincerely, Joan
