Jigsaw 19, Series 3, Report No.2

This being the state of play mid-morning on the third day, that is to say Wednesday.

I have advanced well into the interior, particularly in the lower two quadrants, with my seat being at the bottom of the snap. Too lazy to move the chair or turn the table round to give another side a bit more of a go.

As jigsaws go, relatively easy. A regular jigsaw conforming to a rectangular grid. Lots of patches with distinctive features & colours and with the quadrant boundaries being almost as easy to pick out as edge pieces. No large, plain patches of sky or anything else.

Furthermore, the table was a good size for this particular jigsaw: the trestle, which has been used in the past for 1,000 piece jigsaws - not something I have ever done in a regular way - would have been OTT.

PS: I have just the seen the piece at reference 2. It does seem extraordinary that, between us, we have so little control over grossly inappropriate material being aired and viewed on social media platforms, in this case the one called X. Has our government got the bottle to threaten to close it down in the UK if it does not clean up its act? As far as I am aware, we do not depend on Musk for anything essential and he has not got the grip on us that Putin has on Hungary. But I don't suppose that we will do anything very effective, notwithstanding.
