An irritating day

[smokingboot]

Nothing much, just stupid stuff.

This was unearthed by the gardeners.

I am torn between terror and a moment's wonder if it is worth anything. This is what comes of watching 'American Pickers' too long.

I think it is made of cement or something. It is also accompanied by a spare pair of gnomish legs indicating that another head/torso is around here somewhere. Strange things have happened in this garden...

You say that, but who knows what bad things would happen if you evicted Mr Gnome from his long-term home. Are you really willing to risk it? Are you...?

Yes, yes I am.

And what's more - I suspect that you already knew this! :)

On a slightly related matter - we really need to arrange a date to host you both in our new place! I will drop you a note re potential dates.

I am not! The gnome must stay... preferably some place where he can't scare the birds or melt the pebbledash!

Second the idea about all getting together!

The Holmes Chapel house came with a gnome. He was quite small and a tad battered, but Gerald - I felt compelled to name him - stayed put. Not sure what Paul did after I moved out, but I hope he's still there.

Whilst I would never knowingly bring a gnome home, I will not evict them that have squatters rights already!

Thirded the get together idea!

Exactly. While not a gnome bringer myself, if the gnome was there before me, I won't kick it out, even if it has a scary face.

I can't imagine a name for it!
