🎉 Today marks day 1250 of GAPP! 🎉 I'm afraid you're not getting a 1250-celled puzzle for this intermediate milestone, but I made you this supersized Mukkonn Enn to celebrate.

Rules: Draw a non-intersecting loop through the centres of all cells. When the loop exits a clued cell from a side with a number, it must travel in a straight line for exactly the indicated number of cells (turning on the Nth cell, where N is the value of the clue). A number does not necessarily mean that the clue must be exited from its side.
