A Spiffing Time - by ILN / Mary Evans 500 Piece Puzzle - 485mm x 345mm Box Dimensions 250mm x 250mm x 45mm This new 2009 Gibsons jigsaw puzzle of 500 Pièces is a complement to the 2 x 500 jigsaw box set, A Social Whirl. Even more so, this jigsaw puzzle captures an idyllic moment at some entirely fictional bathing pond/ fountain set against a neo-classical Greek temple. As kids growing up in Glasgow anything good was absolutely spiffing. Today that would translate as totally awesome (sort of). The bathers are lounging around and posing for one another in the latest brightly coloured swimwear. As an acknowledgement to today's health consciousness there isn't a cigarette anywhere and the entire entourage, despite the gay attire, appear quite aloof from one another. Compare this to another classic Gibsons Jigsaw puzzle, the 1000 piece jigsaw, Bucket and Spade.
