One of Uncles favourite pastimes, like many other elderly people, is to do puzzles. It has been known for Uncle to do the 'Sunday Sport' crossword almost before the next edition comes out. People say his skill comes from the many years he spent as a researcher for Prof. Heinz Wolf (That mad chap off the telly). He would help the professor with calculations, build incomprehensibly complicated contraptions (try saying that after a few!) and generally expand his mind with knowledge and wisdom. Which is a shame really because he's forgot most of it all now, and is limited to doing silly 'sliding picture puzzles' like the ones above & below.
