The statue of Michaelangelo’s ‘David’ has followed us around for many years. It was a present to my wife when she left work and we feel compelled to have him ‘on show’! He has been nestled in a shady corner out of main view since we arrived and gradually, the ivy has got to work on him. We have always been slightly concerned about offending the sensibilities of our elderly female friends and neighbours and so nature has kindly provided a solution!
