    Oh I was wondering what happened to the Poke Bowl - I had totally forgotten but remember now. I was just worried I forgot it somewhere. So pleased you took it and thank you for all the puzzles you brought and let me bring home. Best puzzle trip ever!! Xxxx

    Great video. I have done lots of Gibsons puzzles and love them. I have done the more traditional ones and get them from charity shops when visiting family in England and Scotland. Their quality is excellent.

    Great video, Vicky. I'm so glad you were able to show pictures of the puzzles used in the competition. I watched the competition and seeing the puzzles again brought back all the excitement I felt as I watched the speed puzzling. It was so kind of you to give up some of your puzzles to others, including the one you left with your stepdad. I'm glad you had such a good time with the others who also love to build puzzles.

    I absolutely love the intro! And yeah, I remember watching livestreams and thinking "oh, didn't Vicky do this one" several times :D I've done two Gibson's puzzles and I absolutely love them, it might be my favourite brand (I think I loved Schmidt more, but I've done only one puzzle from them, so need more for the opinion).

    So glad you all had such a wonderful time. Considering it was the first time you had been to Worlds you all did very well. As soon as I saw the Lupins puzzle I groaned as I knew Donna would find that very difficult. Oh my the pairs final jigsaw! Lovely but difficult, only 9 pairs out of 99 completed it. 🙁 No doubt more circular and panoramic puzzles may well appear at future Worlds. Gibsons are a very well known UK company and I've done loads of their puzzles. I recently completed one called Village News. Look forward to the next instalment of Worlds impressions.

    Really enjoyed this video.. I do enjoy Gibsons but prefer Ravensburger as more choice available in the charity shops. I'm trying to do more 1000 piece as well as would really like to go to the British Championships next year. Just wish they used 500 rather than 1000 piece in the individuals.

Please let us know. You are a hit in this household.!!!! When the 4 of you are walking {willingly} to begin competing against 100's , my reaction was surprising , even to me!

    Great video. Gibsons puzzles are lovely from new as they fit really well. However after they have been done a few times it becomes harder to tell if the pieces are in the right place or not (unless the image is obvious of course). You won't have any trouble with the London map except for the plain white pieces at the end 😊 xx

    • @Vickymakesandbuilds
      @Vickymakesandbuilds  7 місяців тому +1

      Yes, I find that with a lot of puzzles - like Falcon and Jumbo too - after first build the fit becomes a little loose, great for the first one though. I can’t wait to do one of the Gibsons - thanks for reassuring me about the London one too, I was a little worried 😆 xx

    i love the archaelogist’s desk puzzle! i often hesitate to buy 500 piece puzzles from ravensburger because they don’t cost much less than ravensburger 1000 piece puzzles, but i would like to try that one

      @Vickymakesandbuilds  7 місяців тому

      Yes, I know what you mean - there isn’t much of a difference in price is there, which seems odd 🤷‍♀️
      I would highly recommend that one though - it was fun, and I do love Aimee Stewart’s artwork on a puzzle ❤️

    You are very analytical -you have proven this in your WASGIJ? review videos. Therefore, I don't believe you were just "lucky" to guess which puzzles were going to appear in the championship. Actually, I wasn't surprised that you nailed it several times!!! Good job!!
