Gnomes by The Thousands

Hi guys, well today we heard about a place called Gnomesville, which is a place where one can put a message on a Gnome and leave it with all his/her other little Gnome friends.

The place is close to Donnybrook, W.A. and I was just astounded at the amount of Gnomes all in one spot, have a look at the pics, there was even an Astro Gnome, ready for launch.

This must be the home of all the stolen and missing garden gnomes!

Hi Leon & All,

One has to wonder what the archeologists will make of this in a couple of thousands of years time.


Best,

One has to wonder if these gnomes wander around the park after midnight?????
In Canberra a few years ago there was a competition at Floriade where the gnomes were dressed up in different themes, beatle gnomes,elvis
and lots more.Excellent!

Thanks for showing Leon.
