Husband selfish with the jigsaw!

Men!!!

You could remove a few key pieces and tell him to finish the damn thing himself

Definitely keep one piece. Putting the last pice in is the best.

Yes - hide a few pieces!

Mix two together!

This is why the lover is so perfect because he prefers the sky. ( he does it purely by shape and thinks it’s cheating to look at the picture first!)

Haha. I didn't think of hiding pieces - or mixing- even worse! You're a bad lot! lol.

Nice one Maw ?

Bloody brilliant ideas from Maw and Eglantine .

I think you should try it annep or else hide a few pieces around the caravan and make him play hide and seek !

We do jigsaws online, and I must admit to sneakily finishing one that DH had almost completed, he was a bit perplexed about it, and thought he had finished it without realising.....until I did the same again later that week!
It’s irresistible when there are only about 25pieces left.?

The only thing you can do annep is to have a jigsaw each.

No one else would dare to touch my jigsaw.

poor man lemongrove I can imagine how confused he was. Lol.
I think we would have to hide them from each other if we had two. But really its all part of the fun. ?
Online is new to me.
Oh and I will be trying these ideas (shh)

Get a divorce!

Seriously, though, I would be rather pleased if my husband shared my enthusiasm for jigsaws. It would be very companionable.

I didn't know you could do jigsaws online.

Nor mine * Oopsadaisy*

I always leave any sky till last and will sometimes let H do it if I get bored but he has to have permission

Now children. You’re in a confined space with only one table? You have to learn to share!

This is clearly a LTB scenario.
Oops, thought I was on Mumsnet for a moment

Anyone is welcome to pop over and finish off Pubs & Shops of London for me. I’m sick of the sight of it. And it was a charity shop buy, so I can guarantee there’ll be at least one piece missing.

Mine are usually charity shop but they are always counted and resealed. LTB? Mawbroon. Its is nice to share- we do the Radio Times and i puzzles and crosswords together as well. But we enjoy time on our own too. (art and guitar) I wonder what pastimes or hobbies others share?

Oh we could make a foursome annep!

Wednesdays i cryptic was a stinker though........

I started on a brand new jigsaw a while ago. Sorted out the corners and found 5 of them!

I bought another from the charity shop last week. Not for me, so I thought I'd just count the pieces before passing it on. There should be 1000 and I counted 1025.

I've been lucky with charity shop buys. The only one that had a piece missing was one someone had drawn an arrow to the missing area on the lid picture. I bought it anyway as I liked the picture.

Eglantine21 not if you do cryptics. My brain cannot think that way no matter how I try.. However today I will have a look at Wednesday's.

Oh I hate sharing jigsaws, can't bear anyone coming in to 'help' . I'm the same with crosswords too - buy your own flippin' newspaper to do the crossword, or at the very least take a photocopy and do it yourself!
