For £4, I married a birdbath

about 8 years ago some workman broke the stand to my stone bird bath and I have been on a the lookout for a replacement stand ever since. Yesterday I went to the dump with some recycling and there stood this stand, same colour concrete as my bath bit and well weathered so after handing over £4 its now standing in my garden and I think they look great together.

Thanks I am so pleased with it.
The workman actually tried to hide what he had done by trying to balance the 2 pieces on top of each other luckily and then sticking the dish on, it fell apart again or might have hurt one of us badly Bloomer.
