Jigsaw Jigsaw - Mensa (1000 pieces)

This was a Christmas present from a friend and I had been looking forward to it ever since then. However, it had been requested that I complete a timed effort so I needed a clear day with no outside pressures. It is double sided, and yes, I have left the most difficult side for next time...but I just couldn't resist side 1. I loved the individual coloured frames which quickly built up into puzzles within a puzzle. Once the frames were in place it did get a little trickier, but was soon complete! Thank you to my friend for the challenge...I'll let you know how the next side goes!  

Time taken: 3 hours

Historic Places: Somerleyton Hall, Lowestoft, Suffolk - Falcon (1000 pieces)

A lovely afternoon well spent! Plenty of areas to work on - sky, grass, flowerbeds, and of course the feature of the house. Some people don't like large areas of sky and grass, but I have always enjoyed the extra difficulty they present. Well done Falcon!
