Speleotron Member Dec 18, 2021 #5,087 I understood "put the pigs to sleep" but what about "then it's half empty"?
rm128 Active member Dec 18, 2021 #5,088 Think about another word for the verb ?to empty?... then ?half?... then ?about?. Does that help at all?

RobinGriffiths Well-known member Dec 18, 2021 #5,089 Ha! Evacuate -> cave + uate. I think I understand this cryptic business now!
Speleotron Member Dec 19, 2021 #5,091 OK what about the about though? Why about half empty? Also, does every clue have to have a cryptic section for the word cave, pot or hole?
