One of my most enjoyable hobbies is jigsaw puzzles. In this modern world I quite often do jigsaws on my iPad but this is something that technology just can’t ever replicate well enough for me. A well made jigsaw is a true delight and this puzzle definitely ticks that box.
This 3D puzzle is a really attractive design; bringing together the joy of Disney, the romance of Paris and the Eiffel Tower, and the relationship between Mickey & Minnie. I love the colours, it really does look like the tower has been lit up with celebratory designs of Mickey & Minnie; it has been very well done.
I love to solve jigsaw puzzles in my (limited!) spare time, although I hadn’t done a 3D puzzle since I was a teenager before putting together this mini Taj Mahal. How things have changed!

I adore jigsaw puzzles and, to be honest, am really quite good at them – people always comment on it if they see me doing one. Dad was having a conversation with Georgie recently and informed her that I am a “Puzzler” which apparently means a “person who is very good at doing jigsaw puzzles!” …
Last week I was treated to a fabulous evening in Rugby, joining a group of other bloggers and some lovely folks from Tinyme for a delicious three-course meal at Brownsover Hall Hotel.
It’s always great to meet up with other bloggers, especially at a local event in the Midlands, and we all had a great time chatting & laughing together while we consumed some truly delicious food and lovely bubbly drinks! I enjoyed the opportunity of putting names to faces & making new friends.
Anyone who has ever been in the spare room at either this house or our previous one will already know perfectly well that I am obsessed with… Jigsaws. I love them. I know, I’m like a little old lady in a nursing home or something… It’s so uncool, isn’t it? There is something so relaxing …
