Recognise this chap?....

......Following on from the cat saga in my previous post, it became clear that over the many months since 'Worzel' was erected he has singularly failed to frighten anyone apart from my sister-in-law!

She was given the task of watering our vegetable patch while we were away on holiday and having opened the garage door giving access to the garden, moved forward and then, out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of him.

Being a sensitive creature she was startled to say the least and almost suffered apoplexy, exactly the sort of reaction I was expecting from the local feline population.

That has not happened and the deposits of unpleasantness have continued to pile up, so 'Worzel' has been summarily dismissed, ie broken up into his constuent parts and committed to the local tip. Sadly my shorts, woolly hat and waterproof could not be salvaged, which is a shame as they could have made a useful addition to my somewhat depleted wardrobe!
