Solution: First thing to notice is that
pieces of the numbers "one" through
"eight" can be found at the inside edges
of the letter groups on the sides of the
grid. Each letter group on the left side
pairs up with one on the right side to
form an eight-letter word with one of the
numbers 1-8 stuck inside it. For example,
RUSO pairs with NETLING to make
rusONEtling, which is the word "rustling"
with the number 1 spelled out inside it.
So, RUSTLING is written in the first line
of the grid. The eight pairs are as
follows:
Writing the eight words into the grid
in order, gives:
The letters in the numbered squares
(bolded above) spell the answer to "what
have they [the eight words] got?" and is
the solution to this puzzle - Silent Ts.
