I think you'll find it was the lines picture I wouldn't have time for, that's why I took it at the beginning of the week. ;)
Cheers anyway. :tup:

I`m in. Been trying to get the shed door open after some pill***lost the key and saw this knot and textures around it. Gave up trying to get the lock picked and got my camera instead. Shame all the tools are in that shed and I just cannot get in to clear up the garden - gutted ;)

Got my entry in. I thought of our neigbour as soon as I read the subect - I've just been waiting for it to stop raining. Finally managed this morning when we only had a fine drizzle.

Our neighbour is really brilliant. He must be getting on - mid seventies I would say - and he really keeps busy. He's made his own boat now equipped with outboard and everything and lots of animal sculptures - the boar (my entry), deer, owls etc.
I took a picture of his workshop as I was really fascinated. I converted one shot to b/w and have posted both in the gallery. Any comments would be very welcome, as I don't have much experience (none :) )
