In an effort to start clearing my collection I’ve decided to give each month a theme and only do puzzles that match it. This month was flowers, although it could also have been English county cottage….

Celebrating 40 years of the BCD
I’m a member of the most wonderful jigsaw puzzle club - The BCD! Well, this year it celebrates its 40th birthday and members came from all over the world to gather in Coventry for the occasion. There were puzzles galore, tables of sales, talks, show and tell and plenty of dinners. The theme was ‘simply red’ and we also celebrated British jigsaw puzzle cutters. A fabulous weekend!

New year, new targets to consider!
This year I have set myself the target of completing at least 100 jigsaws. This is for a number of reasons:
1. I currently can’t move in the garage because of all the jigsaws in there to be done!
2. Jigsaws genuinely make me happy and I should put aside more time for them
3. Every jigsaw I check is then sold and raises money for a group local to me.
I’d happily do more than 100, but that would probably mean I do nothing else, and sadly I still have to work! Anyway, 9 for January isn’t too shabby a start…
