Good evening,

Could you offer advice please?

Clue - Shaver's elevator reported (5) R _ _ _ R

I think its RAZOR (shaver) however I have a niggle that it could be RISER (elevator).

The middle letter comes from EQUALI(S)ING or EQUALI(Z)ING so could be an S or a Z.

What thinkest thou?

well - a razor is a shaver and an elevatore is a raiser - I'd go with razor

Hi,
I think the clue says sounds like elevator but means shaver,so razor is right. It's usually the nearest word to the sounds like "indicator" that only sounds like rather than is the word you actually want. if you see what I mean.

Thank you ixion and terry - RAZOR it is.

It's great to have such support and guidance at my finger ips.

I am most grateful to you both.
