HHHmmmmm Graham. We might have to box him up as agricultural equipment.
He'll be OK with a torch, thermos and packet of sandwiches for a few
hours. Are there laws about the treatment of garden Gnomes?

Ian, you may have a problem getting him on a flight as I had to smuggle
him into the country - the paperwork for a work visa for a garden gnome
is just insane, and that tractor is clearly neither ROHS compliant nor
CE marked...  luckily the V8 engine allowed him to elude the local
police, while cutting a clean swath through a few fields.

Question for Doug, the cleaning guru...  what's best for getting gnome
vomit off a boat???  It's worse than when the osprey sit on the top of
my mast and decorate the deck...  Maybe I should try some Mountain
Dew???

regards,
 - Graham

Well Clumpy arrived here looking pretty dishevelled and very hungry
after his transatlantic yacht trip and mega drive up the A34 from
Southampton to Birmingham on that little tractor of his, so we fed him
up with a hearty portion of faggots (a pork based meat ball served in
thick gravy in case some of you were wondering.........), peas and mash,
all washed down with a couple of pints of Batham's bitter. Bostin' as we
say in the Black Country. He was feeling much better after that and has
made a lovely job of reupholstering Doug's old chair with some very nice
leather. I don't know where he got the leather from but I'm asking no
questions. We'll pack him off to the airport and get him on his way when
as soon as we know where to send him

Regards
Ian
