Full House! Magazine - Tricky Text
2 Answers
Hello, Clever People!
In edition 35/36 of Full House magazine there is, on page 59' a rather good puzzle which has me absolutely stumped. The puzzle is supposed to be a quotation from the delectable Sandra Bullock which she sent as a text message. The message is in code, the code being the numbers she pressed on her mobile phone to send it. For example the number 7 could be either P Q R or S whilst the number 5 could be either J K or L.
So far I have worked out that the first 4 words (there are a total of 19) are FAME IS WHEN YOUR. Then my mind has gone blank and I am having a series of senior moments and cannot work out the fifth word, which, of course, is the answer to the puzzle. This word is represented by the numbers 26678837.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
I find that this magazine and others like it help keep the brain ticking along and I enjoy doing them - when I remember to buy the magazine in the first place.
