I know you are going to say to me that this is a little bit late! St David's Day, traditionally celebrated on the First of March, celebrates the life and work of St. David. Born around the year 500 he was a renowned preacher and founder of monastic sites, possibly founding the Abbey at Glastonbury. He is reputed to have made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem and brought back a stone which sits in St. David's Cathedral in Pembrokeshire. We don't make a puzzle of St David but we do ma

Well its the last working day of the month. For many people this is payday. Its also a Friday and for those who may be paid weekly it too is Payday. I started my working life in a Bank. Wednesday and/orThursday was the day that the bigger companys and firms rang in with their order for the wages, which were paid in cash. We would have to put together the required amount, in the specified breakdown, so that the companies could make up the wage packets for handing out to their

I was born in the 1950's and was a child in the 1960's when it was almost compulsory to joining the Brownies for girls and the Cub Scouts for boys. Consequently we always celebrated the birthday of Robert Baden-Powell on 22nd February, the day being known as Thinking Day. As Brownies and Cubs we were encouraged to think of others and help others not just on this day but throughout the year. This year was the 100th Anniversary of Thinking Day and it was commemorated across the

When I was little it was always fish for dinner on Fridays. Part of our tradition my Mum would tell my sister and me. When we were small it was those yummy "Fish Fingers", covered in breadcrumbs and served with chips and tinned processed peas. Funny name for them though, when you consider that fish do not have fingers at all. As we grew older it was school dinners and again fish for dinner on friday. This was battered and served with mashed potatoes and baked beans I seem to

Otherwise known as Shrove Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday, and 47 days before Easter. This was the day for feasting before the start of Lent in the Christian Church calendar. Most of us love a pancake or two and topping's vary, from the traditional lemon and sugar, through syrup, bananas, blueberries, nuts and chocolate spread to the American version with bacon. The combinations are seemingly endless. We here at Grovely Puzzles do not make a puzzle with pancakes on it b

Well today is Friday the 13th! Considered to be an unlucky day by many cultures around the world for all sorts of reasons, both historical, mythological and religious. Many of us are superstitious, black cats, walking under ladders, not tempting fate, crossing our fingers, not sitting 13 people down to a dinner table etc. But, and there is always a but, tomorrow will be Valentines Day. A lucky day for many when maybe your true love will pop the question "Will you Marry Me?"

Losing someone from you life is always difficult even if you have never met the person, have only spoken on the telephone and corresponded by email. We here at Grovely Puzzles first made puzzles for Tina Bone, a renowned Botanical and Wildlife artist in 2015.

Her images are delightf
