HERE IS THE JANGLER/THINGY
Sixteen clues including crypt and definition.
All answers are FOUR letter words.
Eight clues are numbered with prime numbers
(The other eight aren’t!!!)
Two prime number clues have their definitions swapped.
As do two of the other eight!!!
(Still with me)
SO HERE WE GO.
1. Solve the clues
2. Stack the prime number answers one above another ; eight high
3. Do the same with the remaining eight
4. Bring them together (primes on the left) to make an 8x8 square
5. Shuffle each 8x4 tower until you see two 8 letter words crossing diagonally left to right
(one begins with an O, the other with S or D)
6. These two words give a THEME.
7. The final clue is given by the KEY (in your purse/pocket) which reveals the LAST WORD.
8. Three centres!!!!
AND THE BEST OF LUCK
