Puzzle #153 - Bramble

This puzzle was written for an instance of an event in which people were encouraged to submit puzzles in genres which had not yet appeared in any iteration of the event. Bramble is a fairly new invention with some interesting ideas available, though I'm not sure yet that the genre gets very deep.

Rules

Shade some blocks of one or two cells such that no two blocks are orthogonally adjacent and no block crosses a region boundary. All blocks form a diagonally connected network without loops. Two blocks which touch diagonally cannot both be single cells. Number clues indicate the amount of shaded cells in their region.

Difficulty: 6/10
