The quarterly meeting at Rushmere St. Andrew was rather special. Our host was Trish Tyler, one of our founder members, and her generous welcome included a ploughman’s lunch followed by blackberry and apple crumble.
Show and Tell puzzles on the theme of ‘Life on the farm’ included this whimsical puzzle club jigsaw ‘Bank Holiday on the farm’ by artist Molly Brett.
Sales were rather slow – we were all busy chatting, puzzling and eating cake (yes, we still had room for the home-made cakes on offer).
Speed puzzler Emma managed to complete the tricky plexiglass travelling starfish puzzle in two and a half hours, despite all attempts to distract her.
In the
evening, many of us stayed on for a fish and chip supper in Trish’s garden. The perfect end to the day – no wonder Maria had travelled from Germany to join us!
Our next meeting will be in Normandy – Surrey, not France…
