I’m now off work for three whole weeks!

While knitting is my primary hobby, I enjoy a puzzle now and again. So I bought myself this one today in a charity shop trawl.

Sitting down to make a start now, with a movie on in the background. Let the slow pace of holidays commence.

    I love doing puzzles. I don’t have the space to keep one out while I work on it, so I purchased a puzzle mat. Enjoy your Sunday afternoon. Is that a tea kettle I hear?? 😃

      I’m hoping we can work around this one while it’s on the coffee table 😊 And that’s the sound of a bottle of Baileys being opened!

    Day 2 will have begun- how far have you got with the puzzle?
    I should look for some more puzzles. . I gave all ours away to a family during the pandemic, my friend’s teenage grandchildren were driving their parents ‘mad’ during lockdowns so I dropped them on their doorstep during an allocated allowed out time.
    Seems so long ago now also seems such a strange way we lived in those strange times

      Not far at all if I’m honest but it was pleasing to peck away at it.

      That was thoughtful of you, I hope they enjoyed them. My partner and I played a lot of board games in lockdown – they had just moved in with me with their stash of games, which rivals my stash of yarn!

    Looks awesome! Hope you enjoy the puzzle, and have a little celebration when you complete it. :-)

      It’s slow going but I guess that’s the point 😁

      It’s nice isn’t it? Kind of reminds me of the Quentin Blake illustrations in Roald Dahl books when I was growing up.
