I am taking 3 (physical) books to Melbourne with me: 11.22.63, The Handmaid's Tale, and Metamorphosis.
But I also have books on my phone to read.

“Handheld meat pies” could be a lyric in a NZ ballad I reckon.

I have strong opinions on jigsaw puzzles - they are just not for me.
I enjoy Sudoku and cryptic crosswords.
At one point I thought I might be a colouring book person but I am not, however cool pictures from them are good for embroidery patterns.
