Tonight it will be 108 years since the Titanic hit an iceberg and went down in the early hours of April 15, 1912. I’ve always had a thing for shipwrecks (also air disasters), and I read quite a few books about the Titanic back in the ’90s. I’m not a fan of the 1997 film, though. The only thing I really enjoyed about that were the scenes where you could see how the ship worked, that was amazing, but I had no interest in the story. For the final hour, I thought it would never end, and I was sitting there thinking “Just die already”. There was a British mini-series in 2012 to mark the centenary, I enjoyed that a lot more. There’s also a film from 1958 called A Night to Remember, but it’s so long since I’ve seen it that I don’t remember much about it (heh). I have the DVD, perhaps I’ll pull it out tonight to refresh my memory.

Anyway, the puzzle 🙂 It wasn’t the easiest Titanic puzzle that I’ve ever done, there’s a lot of blue, but there’s still enough variation in shades to help quite a lot. It was very enjoyable despite being challenging at times, and Clementoni puzzles have great quality.

I did the text above the ship and the White Star flags first, then on to the ship itself.
