Indeed they do, Harry. And I couldn't help but relate the "scythe" to the grim reaper. Compelling and creative, my friend! Hugs, Carolyn

made me smile Harry as I grew up on a small holding and my father used to have a scythe and a sickle which were used to cut down the long grass to feed to the animals in winter - we had goats and pigs also many chickens too but they got corn:-) hugs Jan xx
