Tell yourself you are exercising your brain, probably just as good for you as Suduko or crosswords :}<br /><br />Have you seen the 'Jigsaws Galore' game? Download from the Apple store if you've got a Mac, or there is a Windows version. It's absolutely bloomin' brilliant and unlike a 'real' puzzle you can close the program, forget about it for a few days and the puzzle doesn't beckon irresistibly every time you walk past! Let me know if you need URLs :}<br /><br />PS: it's such a brilliant game I actually paid for the full version after I downloaded the trial. You can then use your own pics to make fiendish unique puzzles!BilboWagginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06913801147278606148noreply@blogger.com
