I'm done with this, I'm finally finished with it. (PICS)
 

I know that will come as good news for some and Eva is very pleased. But I finally said, it's done.

I will start on a new one soon.

As for those who don't think I have a hobby.

Now what were you expecting? LOL

looks good do you glue them?

Retirement sucks, doesn't it??

living the dream.

How many pieces ??

Not really. I miss shooting naked girls, but then who wouldn't. :winkwink:

I do jigsaws, read, cook, watch TV and look after our 9 year old when she gets home.

Eva on the other hand is hating being idle, she's always been active and needs something to keep her busy. She's not the housewife type and when I suggested we have another child. I was banished to the shed for a week. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I watch the sites, do a bit of selling and post on the boards to fill the rest of my time. :thumbsup

No I use to. What man doesn't dream of earning lots of money shooting naked females. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

i'd watch that eva. she might get frustrated and start to wander.

markham, you look so cheesy, healthy also, but mostly cheesy :)

puzzles are mind numbing! gotta get an xbox man...

i'm shopping for one for my 87 year old grandfather as we speak (no joke) I told him how realistic the racing games are for video games 15 years ago and he finally decided to take me up on it... damn they are a lot better than when i said that... hehe

cool puzzle

markhams actually 187, he's not as oung as your grandfather.

Congrats :)

Jesus H Christ... please go back to fucking with Nathan. ;-)

Paul, take some content from your shop and make your own: http://www.jigsaw2order.com/

this way you can combine the naked girls and your hobby ;)

Bad combination for an inactive old man like yourself. Better hit the gym.

My Dad used to do puzzles like that and one day I grabbed a piece unnoticed while walking by and slipped it into my pocket. I waited until he was down to that last piece and while he was looking all over the floor for it I set it in place and claimed it done. I thought it would be funny but he was really mad. On that day I learned just how serious old men take their puzzles.

paul start going after the illegal puzzle tubes please. they are destroying the puzzle industry

should hang it in your bathroom.

how long did you take to complete it?? and how many pieces does it consist of???

:1orglaugh

cool puzzle bro

2D puzzles are so last century, you need to upgrade that.

Now this is impressive (as far as simple puzzles are considered)

looks like a 1250 piece puzzle to me

congrats dude!

What a waste of time........

my hat is off to you sir :1orglaugh

The dog puzzle looks great and perfect. Congratulations.

Nice...congrats. I know it takes alot of time and patience to finish a puzzle like that.

My brother loved these, when he was younger (24 now, when he was maybe 14-17) he used to build these all the time. His first one was Titanic, then London Bridge, then some Sky Scrapers. I used to come in drunk and kick them and break them LOL.

So you run for life ?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

didn't see that coming :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Have done with a few and they hang in my daughters bedroom.

This was a 1500 piece, the largest I ever did was 9000 and it needed a special table.

This one took about 3 weeks, I do a bit at a time.

Always loved doing them. Patience and the reward you get from finishing one is great.

I doubt it, I keep her smiling. Thank God for the little blue pills. :1orglaugh

nice shelf. doesn't it collect a lot of dust?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

9 year old? Are you the father?? How old were you when you had her, 60?

:1orglaugh

if you need a cuck hit me up ;-) Seriously, must be nice to screw off your time. Good for you.

florida has great retirement homes...bridge clubs..pinncole and hearts games...shiffleboard.. shows at nite with dinner included...buffets. and trips to local museams,theaters and ,antiique shops..ocassional dinner cruises and casino trips...


you should look into it...you would love it :)

Well, I for one have great admiration for you Paul!

I admire that you made your living in the days when >95% of this industry where not even born or only just in school. That you persevered through hard times and revelled in good times. That you found your lovely wife. That you fought cancer and survived. That you came out the other end after all that and still retired in a nice home, with a lovely wife, and enjoy still what you do. The fact that you still post on GFY and take abuse, when clearly you have been there done that, got the teeshirt, is amazing, cos I wouldn't do it.

There really aren't very many people in this industry that are of your age that have done what you have done. I'd like to ask every single one of your haters how they see themselves at retirement age, cos I doubt a fraction would ever be where you are when they get there.

To you sir, I bow my hat. :pimp

Doing puzzles isn't for me, but shit, I've got 30 yrs yet to get to enjoy it!!

Now flame on in the piracy shit!!

he called you mr. rogers dude. damn

Nice puppies!
