…and, unlike my White Album puzzle, it’s actually possible to complete.

Welcome to the rooftop, @Necko! Only four years to walk up all those steps! Have a banana cider…

You can get most things up here, so long as they involve bananas! Some silly barsteward dumped 30,000 pounds of them up here, and we’re still working our way through them! Come on, folks, I think we’ve got them down to around 28,675 pounds! We’re getting there – and now Necko’s here to help!

The hardest puzzle I’ve ever had was Rubik’s Zigzaw Puzzle. It was only 131 pieces, but it was a bee-hatch!

RubikImage Enlarger

42 edge pieces (4 corners and 38 side pieces, which were three different shapes if I remember rightly), and 89 inner pieces (81 of which were identical “frog-shaped” pieces).

The finished thing was meant to look like this:

p2210237_11.jpgImage Enlarger

The amount of times I got down to putting the last “frog” in place, only to go “Feck!” as it didn’t fit.

It was a total barsteward that took me months to do it right the first time! And months the second time! Etc!

YouGov profile of a regular Beatle fan as taken from a sample of 4427 people.

That’s pretty interesting. Be a lot cooler of they got a worldwide sample. Can’t believe the majority are over 60 though, that’s just the first hand Beatlemaniacs.

I’m horrible at puzzles, I honestly would go insane trying to put a 1,000 piece White Album  together.

That makes one of us… Couldn’t you have gifted me an outrageously large amount of some tastier and more versatile fruit, @Starr Shine?? Why did I even win this nuisance anyway? It’s causing others suffering! Or fruity beverages…

I feel like the Person Above Me game is responsible…

I’m so curious… But you should save it for when I do something worthy of it… Or give it to someone else.

Unless its more crap we can’t possibly get rid of! Then send it to the 1D house.

I have that puzzle to echo Ron Nasty “it’s a right barsteward”. Horrible thing, especially the soil and flowers- I’m nearly 2 years making that bloody puzzle (granted I haven’t touched it in a year- it’s just there leering at me). 

It’s very pretty though- the quality is great!

My mom, stepbrother, and I worked on a 1000 piece puzzle of van Gogh’s “The Starry Night”. That ^%$&* thing drove us nearly insane. We all agreed to throw it in the bin.

Am dumping this here as i dont think it warrants being placed anywhere else.

Daily Mail report on Sir Peter Blake’s newest collage – small independent UK businesses. The Daily Mail reports it as a recreation of the Pepper cover, i’d argue that its not and they are using the Pepper cover and Beatles connection to try and make it a wider appealing story.
