Default Gnome sweet Gnome / Gnome Chomsky make-over

Well he finally made it to Kilkenny.

After he has a warm bath with lovely suds and bubbles (soap), he lounged in the garden for a few hours to dry off. We then set about choosing new colours for him.

On closer inspection it was discovered he is actually holding a basketball so Man United colours would not have really suited him. This is how he looked earlier today. Tomorrow we have to do further touch-ups on him.

Default Whistling Gnome

Nice work, HappyHunter!

And just to clarify, the gnome is about to whistle, hence the two fingers...

Actually Chris, I am told by an American friend that the Gnome is actually saying "2 points" with his fingers as they are.

"Chomsky" as he has been named "Gnome Chomsky" has just completed a crossover dribble which he is a dab hand at :)

Fantastic job HappyHunter. I'm not a fan of gnomes but I'd be proud if I had him in my garden, he looks great. Well done.
