garden with rosie

I was inspired by this today and so headed out into the garden to see if i could find anything half as good only Rosie followed and distracted me so here she is instead
My neighbour is completely obsessed with his leaf blower. Every autumn he spends hours revving the bloody thing and chasing stray leaves in some vain attempt at keeping order in his garden
I personally think all the leaves and colours look beautiful on the ground and it's my favourite time of year

a bit of black cat research :)

In India it is thought that a reincarnated soul may be "liberated" by throwing a black cat into a fire.

In Bengali folklore women could change their soul into a black cat and that any harm brought to the cat would be suffered by the women.

The Celts thought black cats were reincarnated beings able to divine the future.

German folklore believed that if a black cat jumped on the bed of a sick person it meant death was near.

In Finland it was thought that black cats were thought to carry the souls of the dead to the other world.

In China it is thought the presence of a black cat foretold of poverty.

During the catholic inquisition when millions were killed, innocent people were tied to a stake and set aflame with often a black cat was thrown into the fire with them.
