pass up.

The outer folder contains a photo of Kevin Preston and details the origins of the company in 1991, after a request from his elderly mother, three years of research and the cutting of the first puzzle on 28th Sept 1994. The jigsaws use 4mm Finnish birch ply from forests managed on a sustained yield basis. Since 1995 it claims to have supplied 'tens of thousands of puzzles to customers in over fifteen countries'.

Here are some springtime blossoms while out with the dog. Finally beginning to actually look like Spring!
I have not taken many pictures of Dragonflies yet with the new camera. Just playing with Lightroom and shadows. Almost took out the leaf at the bottom but decided to keep it in the picture.
Was one of those afternoons with drizzle and chill. The best was to spend it was watching this Springtime Darner emerging from its exuvia. It spent the most time hanging in this position. Other than arm wriggling it was motionless for quite some time.
