Over the last week, we in Australia have been lucky enough to have some English royalty gracing our shores- Prince Harry and his beautiful wife Meghan, who have travelled here to see some of the best that the country has to offer.
They were also here for the Invictus Games- an international sporting event that was created by the Prince for wounded, injured or sick armed services personnel and veterans. This year the event was held in Sydney from 20-27 October.
I decided to post this puzzle featuring the flags of the world to commemorate this inspiring event, While many of these countries didn't actually have representatives at the Games, some of them did, and some of them have fought alongside or for some of the countries whose flags appear in the above puzzle.
Produced by Eurographics, this puzzle was fairly easy to do (although some of the flags were similar) and quite educational. Each country's name is listed under its flag, as well as the population, the size of the country in square kilometres and the capital city.
For some reason, I've always been interested in flags, maps and the like, so this puzzle went down a treat, as it would for anyone else who likes this sort of thing.

Time for another Disney puzzle- and a larger one at that! This was a Ravensburger 1500 piece puzzle which I discovered one day, and, as it features a majority of the most popular Disney characters, was just one I had to do!
As with most Disney puzzles, it didn't take me a terribly long time to piece together, as I often recognise parts of each of the characters and am able to put together each one quite quickly.
This one brought together my loves for books and for Disney and if you know a like-minded person, this would make a perfect gift for them.

The Puzzlebug brand, while cheap, always has interesting designs, and this one is no exception.
I like how they find images to represent various towns and cities, that you may not normally see in a jigsaw puzzle design.
This one, featuring the Norwegian city of Oslo, is charming and picturesque- making you want to just pack your bags and visit!
The only fault I have with these puzzles (besides the fact that they sometimes don't join that well) is that they have such long and convoluted titles! Sure, that's not a terrible thing, but they do seem a bit too long-winded sometimes! Oh well, what can you do?
Otherwise, they're not too bad for the price and at least there's plenty of variety in designs to choose from...

I love DC Comics and Marvel- the films, the artwork that features in the comics, and the stories of the various characters.
Being an avid reader, I have recently finished the latest installment of the DC Icons series that tells the stories of some of the main characters before they become the superheroes they 'grow up' to be.
Catwoman: Soulstealer by Sarah J. Maas was a great read, and introduced the character of the psychotic Harley Quinn into the series.
Inspired by this, I have decided to post the above mini puzzle by Aquarius.
Of excellent quality, this puzzle was quick and fun to do, and is a wonderful representation of the character.
I'm hoping that a puzzle company will one day soon take on other DC names, and create designs that feature even more of these popular characters. They'll certainly have my business if they do!
