Keys to you

I've been very wishy-washy today so I decided to begin a new jigsaw. An hour later I'm considering giving up on it.

There's only been one jigsaw I stopped doing, and that was after three months and crying every time I sat down to it, so what's so bad about this one? 

Well, there must be about 2" top and bottom that aren't shown in the picture. Add to that the fact that pieces don't fit together very well, and the colours aren't true, and you may get an inkling.

I'll probably persevere.

I forgot to tell you that I went to visit Swansea Minster yesterday. (It used to be St. Mary's but it's got too big for her boots.) There was an art installation there I wanted to see: The Last Supper by Peter Barnes that used 50,000 keys from old keyboards to create the mosaic effect.

I was thinking that your jigsaw sounded too tedious to persevere, then I zoomed in on the Last Supper. THAT took perseverance!

That installation is incredible. I don't like it much, but it's clever.

It certainly did!

Oh I liked it, I think largely because it was so big. Being almost life size made it special.

The art looks threatening to this viewer, nightmarish. But that's me. Maybe I'd do better in person. That said, it's good because it had an impact.
