Noseybonk!

Trefl Maxi jigsaw puzzle
Why is Fluttershy apparently trying to pick fleas off her hide?
To readers of a certain age (clue: older than most of you) that name means only one thing: the somewhat creepy masked bloke who appeared in the Children's BBC series Jigsaw. So I'm using it as a pretty feeble introduction to this post, which is about... a jigsaw! This is a 24-piece puzzle from the Polish company Trefl, and it's pretty big note AA battery for scale in the photo — with the completed picture measuring 60 by 40 cm. I picked it up here in the UK. The Entertainer at the Merry Hill Centre (near Dudley) had it for half price, ie a fiver. Yes, it's very childish of me. And your point is...?

  1. Oh don't remind me of Nosey Bonk! I used to love the actual show, and found it fascinating, but good gravy, he was a creepy dood. if I was this postman I'd be running *away* from him, not chasing after him:-

    24 pieces. A nice bright jigsaw, and a cheery picture if ever there was one, but the real question is whether 24 pieces might be too much. I honestly don't think I could handle it myself! :o
