Jigsaw completed

Not a great deal to report today, yesterday and very good I was making good progress with the quite tricky jigsaw I got for Christmas. Got it started last weekend with Anya’s help. Firstly your u had to complete the crossword, actually Isobel helped with that too, and then you had to get n with the puzzle.
This morning Tina and I spent quite a while in the front garden trying to remove some of the wet that is growing through the gravel. Didn’t take pictures but we could see where we had been which is always encouraging. Then w borrowed Darren’s car and took several bags of garden waste to the tip as th brown bin is full to overflowing!
Darren and I went down to Chip and Gail’s to get fish and chips for out dinner, very tasty and very reasonably priced.
I did a bit more puzzle before walking down to visit Sarah who was having a sort out and wanted to see if any of her clothes from the attic would be of any use to me. Passed this lovely lemon coloured group of daffodils on my way there.
I thought they were unusual and very pretty and late as most of the daffs are long gone. I have come back with some clothes which just about fit so that should encourage me to keep the weight off!
I have finished the jigsaw now so will get it packed away this evening. When I had eighteen pieces left to go in I counted the gaps in the puzzle as I was convinced some bits were missing!
May try and make the pattern pieces for a Tudor table and benches this evening!

  1. The puzzle look a nightmare to do. You really do have WAY more patience than I do. If I went to the trouble of doing a puzzle like that I’d find it hard to break it up after to rebox it!
    Glad to hear you didn’t do too much gardening. But I bet you’ll be back to slogging away out there this week. The weeds rest for no woman.
    Good job you had the fish and chips before deciding you were going to try keeping weight off.....hmmm fish and chips.
    Hope the furniture making goes well. I look forward to seeing the results.

  2. The puzzle was quite a challenge, but a good feeling when you have finished.
    It was a good sized portion of fish and chips, tasty but not good for the waistline!
    Time to find the miniature furniture book now!
