Got the potatoes, onions and some peas in. The veg patch is going to be well tended this year.

Totally agree. Our allotment will never look as good as it will this year!

I've got that cake one still to doThankyou @Carole , I like the sound of those.
When I began I just bought the first two in the charity shop that were 1000 pieces.
The first took far too long and nearly gave up on the blue then the green.
The second was much quicker and more enjoyable so I get what you're saying.View attachment 8256 View attachment 8257

Going to have to get the new jigsaw mat out (bought a few years ago and never used as I've had the luxury of a table to do them on up until these past few weeks) and try doing some jigsaws on sons old bed...
Once I start one, I can be up all night thinking " just one more piece and I'll go to bed"...Have you got a coffee table that you can use?
I’ve got one of these that I use, a portable zip up jigsaw thing that I use on the table, but I can move it around if needs be.
I know that doing jigsaws isn’t very “rock n roll” but I’m actually finding it very therapeutic. I’m also loving that I’ve got time to
do them instead of rushing round like a whirling dervish.
I read an article the other day about how jigsaws have really taken off now that people have more time on their hands, but it’s actually good for improving visual- spatial reasoning, improving memory and reducing the amount of brain cell damage, supports the growth of new brain cells.
They also release the production of dopamine, which regulates mood and feelings of optimism.
I was glad that I read that, because I do feel more relaxed but tinged with a little guilt that I should be doing “more jobs” instead of relaxing every now and then.

Sneaky buggers.It was my original head protector … before the fiendish green bastards changed frequencies.
A thumb with a hole through it is a cunning modification.
Handy for holding nails and screws.
