Hello All.
I Was In Jigsaw Heaven Last Week. My Boyfriend Found A Shop With 20,000 Plus Jigsaw Puzzles For Sale, Yes You Read 20 Thousand Plus With 30,000 Off Site With A Relative Of The Shop Owners. I Was In My Element Taking Home Bagfulls Of Them I Even Found Lots Of Them I Did As A Child And Thought I Would Never See Again, You Can Tell I Bought Them. This Shop Has Them Piled High From Floor To Ceiling Thousands And Thousands Of Them All There For Buying. My Boyfriend And I Spent Hours Of Glorious Fun Looking Through Them. The Shop Is As Follows-:
Barneys Newsbox
Broadgate
Grasmere
Cumbria(in The Lake District)
La22 9ta
015394 35627
They Have A Website Just Google It. The Jigsaws That Are On Their Website Are Just A Dip In The Ocean To What They Have In Store, It Is Say Like Putting Your Wee Toe In An Olympic Size Swimming Pool.
The Only Thing Is That The Vast Majority Of The Jigsaws Are Upstairs With One Flight Of Stairs In Two Levels And When You Go Up There Is Only Room For Say 3 Or 4 People At A Time. I Am OVER A SIZE 16 And Found Moving Round Neat But Ok To Do. If You Have Trouble With Stairs Or Balance It Might Be A Nono.
It Is So, So, So Very Much Worth A Visit It Is Just Magical.
Please, Please Do Try To Make The Journey. I Am So Picky As You Know By Now But I Took Bagfulls Away, They Have Makes That I Have Never Heard Of And They Are Just Lovely. Just Many, Many Jigsaws That I Have Never Seen Anywhere Else.
My Boyfriend And I Went Back The Next Day To Buy More Befor We Headed Home To Glasgow, I Have Never Seen Anything Like This Place.
I Hope You All Have As Much Fun There As We Had.
All My Very Best Wishes
Happy Jigsaw Hunting And Jigging

Hello All.
Just Finished The Second One Of My Visit To Grasmere, They Are Very Beautiful. This Morning My Boyfriend Asked What I Wanted For Christmas And I Told Him A Return Visit To Barneys And He Has Granted My Wish. I Have Bags Of Jigsaw Puzzles Everywhere But Number Three Is Up And Ready To Do, Did The Border Before I Came Out.
Can Anyone Tell Me Anything About The Piece Shape, Cut And Quality Of Schmidt Puzzles. I Have My Eye On One But As I Have Never Done One Of Theirs I Dont Know What They Are Like And As This One Is Expensive I Dont Want To Buy And Find The Above Not To What I Wanted.
I Hope You All Have Lots Of Fun Puzzling
Take Care Everyone
