The Old Lady by ladymagpie

The Old Lady

Another garden ornament dug up and rescued from my friends garden. Her husband has now completed the first dig and cut down of the undergrowth, so I'm not expecting any more lovely surprises.

This might be a partner to the gardener's rest of the 10th of March, but is not damaged at all. Is that a squirrel or cat on the other end of the seat. Whatever, it's just a lovely statue of the old lady on the bench.

Best viewed with the magnify button above the picture.

@gerry @libertylady @philcameron59 Thank you all for looking, and Phil he never takes much of a break and if he does it's in his shed where he has his own kettle.

What a fabulous find; like her expression - she looks a little cross. Looks like a squirrel to me. Nice to have this is the garden

@killeen @claireuk @thresheg @linnypinny Thanks for those comments, I'm sure it's a squirrel.

Your friends must be feeling they're on a treasure hunt. I think this lady doesn't like squirrels.
