  1. All the world's a stage, right? So here are all the plays of #Shakespeare painted as a schematic #map to show approximately the place where Will set them. As I too was born and bred in #StratforduponAvon, this painting is my love letter from a Stratford girl to a Stratford boy.

    Which Shakespeare did you "do" at school? I did Midsummer Night's Dream, but my fave play is King Lear. Oooh, such violence and pathos! It's like a Nordic Noir TV drama.

  2. We like the idea of jigbooks - books you buy in a thousand pieces that you have to assemble before you can read them. Sadly, we have no jigbooks, but we do have lots of #books and lots of #jigsaws, all available at our massive, humungous, bumper book and jigsaw sale. Saturday 26th October, 10-12, Ringmer Village Hall

  3. Unreasonably hyped for the World Jigsaw Puzzle Championship to start later today. It was surprisingly compelling last year, with some real tense finishes and underdog stories.

    I'll be curious to see if they've added a bit more production quality after the big boost in viewers last year, but probably not. It doesn't seem like that kind of organisation.

    Anyway there's no official hashtag afaik so I'm going with #WJPC, filter as required if I get overexcited and post too much πŸ˜†

    Go participant 921, Rebecca Lai from reasonably local to me! πŸŽ‰

    (please excuse me covering all the bases with the tags, I need to meet some puzzlers to talk to asap lol)

    DONE!!!

  5. I like #geocaching. I hate #jigsaws. So when somebody puts a digital jigsaw between me and a geocache, I come up with a workaround.

    I'm already known for coming up with technical workarounds to the popular "Jigidi" puzzles, but today a similarly-minded 'cacher contacted me because they were stuck with a "JigsawExplorer" puzzle.

    Half an hour and one mug of coffee later, I've implemented a general-case workaround for people who, like me, have that very-specific level of laziness that means that they won't to a jigsaw before they take a five-kilometre hike in the rain to find some lost tupperware! πŸ˜…

    Here's the workaround: danq.me/solving-jigsawexplorer

  7. Jigsaws are a perfect example of looking without seeing. You can look at the right piece multiple times before you finally see it and where it's meant to go. #Jigsaws
