Damn that was quick. Very well. Granny Magda was the only person who solved this one. (Oh, and Vacate, apparently.) And even the good Granny had to have the title of the puzzle explained by private message. Go for it.
Edited by Dr Adequate, : No reason given.

3 first, then 4, then 2 - then they fall in :-)

I needed to check the spelling of 8 though.
