What are you all up to

@Wherenext I found that jigsaw in Waitrose of all places! I used only to do them over the Christmas period when I used the motorhome table when not needed in the van. Before we sold the van we were less inclined to go away in the winter so started to do more and now, I suppose, its turned into a bit of a hobby. I belong to a Puzzle Group on Facebook and its interesting to note the different methods used to complete a jigsaw. Some sort the pieces to colour, some to shape. I just tend to plough on. Most people seem to do the edges first. I then tend to make up the easier parts of the puzzle and join them up later. There has been a move by lots of the puzzle makers to reduce the size of the box they come in which I don't like as I like the large base and lid to sort the pieces. I don't mind "difficult" puzzles but not so keen on the impossible. I was once given a double side cat puzzle which completely defeated me!

We have that Shakespeare jigsaw as well, looks a very interesting one👍 Glad you had a good meet up.
We did a swim first today, home for lunch, and then tackled the last two stumps. Lots of tidying to do now, last of cuttings still to gather, mainly from next door. It was a very heavy frost this morning, but had warmed up by time we got out there. Lots of the wood we got out of the hedge is long dead, and is great for stove. Next week will be all about some more normal gardening, and getting to grips with fencing. Hoping BIL will help OH, so I can get on with border prepping. We are both tired tonight, but it’s nice to be working on quite a big project together.

Belated birthday greetings to both @Bakers2 and @milliehull I hope you both had a lovely time.
@DSB hope you had a safe tow hope and are already planning your next trip away!!😁
Glad you got back safe and sound and are not too tired out after the walk and clearing out the Van, @Wherenext. It was great meeting up again and we enjoyed the chat last night and the lovely walk this morning. I just wish I could say that I enjoyed an extended sleep but for me needs must during the night!😗

It stayed sunny all day here and we have a clear sky again so it will be another chilly/ frosty night so I will take the pump in before turning in. We had a second short walk this afternoon and made all the main preparations for our next move tomorrow.
@Takethedogalong it has been some job you both have undertaken, removing that hedge. Hopefully with added assistance your OH will be able to complete the task by the weekend.
