Sue are you writing upside down because you are upside down, or just to confuse those of us the right way up? :))

The trampoline has a big net around it Amanda - makes it a lot safer as the children can zip and unzip it.

Lol folks~~
Knee and wrist are just an irritation ,more folks worse off than I am.

I have had an acknowledgement from the hosp saying I am now on the waiting list about my fingers and wrist, and if it worsens to consult my Dr, which I will do but the cold weather will make it much worse.

I love jigsaws ! Has anyone one tried the baked beans one ...I failed miserably. Another good one is the Magic Eye one, the view that some peeps can see straight away ( hubby can, flash g*t) I can only see the Magic eye pictures if I go cross eyed .lol

Tec, I'm not laughing I think you can enjoy a jigsaw puzzle at any age, first and formost it can keep the mind ticking over as you have to concentrate on were the pieces have to go.

Amanda isn't it nice to see your grandchildren playing with your children's toy's and enjoying them, I passed some of my doll's onto my daughter and when she had her girl's it was lovely to see them also playing with the doll's. My mum bought me a big bride doll ( 30inch ) when I was 9yrs old and after christmas I didn't get a look in as my younger brother who was 4yrs kept pinching it to dance with it lol.

I can't see magic eye ones at all - I think I'm the only one who can't.

I'm glad you are at least on the waiting list - lets hope it's not too long.

No Amanda,
Magic eye pics are not just a load of dots , took me a while to suss it but it is really amazing when you can see the pic.
Shame you can't see them either Sue.

Ok clever clogg's Sue, there was a thread some time ago that explained how to do that but I have forgotten how it's done, you know what they say ( small thing's amuse small mind's ) :))

No Sandie I haven't done the baked bean's one but have seen it, look's mind boggleing, haven't heard about the magic eye one though.

Amanda I will see what one's are in the catalogue this year as they often have lot's of them in it and pick one that I think they would all like.

Sue we alway's do a sing along ( Karaoki ) at christmas, haveing welsh blood in us mean's we all like singing ( girl's and my son have good voices ) I used to have a good singing voice until I damaged my vocal chord's, now when I sing and try to reach the higher note's my voice start's to break up and goes croaky.

Sleep well Diane, Amanda, and Sandie,

There's a stall in our local shopping centre selling 3D jigsaw puzzles. They look interesting.

Diane - are you saying I have a small mind (-̮̮̃•)

Hello all. I'm slowly training myself to get here earlier.

What's a magic eye puzzle?

My DIL had a two-sided jigsaw which she and a friend became engrossed in on her glass-topped coffee table.
My son said he came in from work and all he could see was two posteriors and feet sticking out from the table. The heads were under the table, trying to see if the underside pieces were right, as that would mean the 'face-up' pieces were in the right place.

Mmm I was thinking that too.

I was reading thro the thread from the beginning.. took me some time I can tell you !! to see where everyone was from
and I noticed Persey or Allan hadn't been around for some time.

Lol Berona'
That made me laugh really loud, hubby thinks I'm nuts !
I probably will have to go on the laptop soon as I can hear the living room and bathroom doors opening and closing, signs of hubby wanting to take to his bed for the night.
Will google Magic eye for you Berona and see if it explains it better than I can ...sure it will.lol
