the things you see when you don't have a camera!

Part of the process before sandblasting is to prepare a stencil and pick out the pieces you want blasted first.  This can take quite a while...sore backs, squinty looks through the magnifying glass...so  looking out the window.. for a break,  I cant believe what I see, in the field next door... a grey cat being chased by a handful of crows and two Magpies across the middle of the field.  Even the horses are looking interested.  The birds are dive bombing the cat and he is having to hit the deck and then sprint towards the hedge....the little horse is also following him!..fast as you like cat has disappeared ...and the pony has chased the birds!...what are the chances of timing it to see that?..

.ah well back to picking out the stencils..the professional name is "weeding", but as I have a garden to look after, the less I use this term the less guilty I feel!!
