I was thinking about a South Island tour next May but think I will have to reconsider the timing after this first cold spell of winter. I will have to check if the library has any jigsaws. I used to enjoy them but haven't done one for years.

Sounds a great idea to expand your reading range. Unless it is something that isn't your cup of tea, hope this one turns out worth the read but knitting is a good way to go.
