The chair was was originally on the nature strip when the stencil was applied. Then it disappeared for a short time only to reappear in the front garden.

“Glad to see you like my stencil” J said to the neighbour who had lived in the street for 9 years but had assiduously avoided all neighbourly overtures including eye contact.

“Oh,oh” she replied “Did you do that ? – I was trying to get rid of a chair and instead I get this….I was overjoyed…..I have to give you hug”, and proceeded to embrace a neighbour she had so successfully ignored for nearly a decade.
