It has been absolutely ages since our last classic Simple Loop puzzle. So here's one that I made on my coffee mug.

Oh crumbs! I totally forgot that drawing it on a square grid makes it Toroidal. Well, hopefully it doesn't bend your mind too much.

Rules: Draw a non-intersecting loop through the centers of all empty cells. The loop may "wrap around" the edges of the grid.

Solving Note: The light grey cells outside of the grid are not part of the puzzle, and are purely for solving convenience - they represent where the shaded cells on the edge of the grid "wrap around" (so you can't draw a line that enters a grey cell). To see how to draw the solution, take a look at the image.
