And other assorted ornaments.
Do you have any? Think they're tacky?
I love buying really tacky garden gnomes for my parents. My dad hates them, and my mum puts them on display. Amuses me no end.
We only have one. It's a stone hedgehog. A squashed stone hedgehog with a tyre mark on his back. Totally tasteful

Ooh my Mum had loads, her lawn was covered in all manner of the things. I hated walking up her path, felt like I was being watched.
Someone nicked one once and sent her a postcard from Devon from her Gnome. It arrived back a week later with a lady Gnome in tow and a picture of them together on the beach
Of course my Mother thought it was hilarious, we never did find out who it was  |

Though technically a theft (or perhaps abduction) , it does sound hilarious. |

Technically it is but would you seriously report a Gnome theft to the police? I wouldn't |

Not really. Especially if it was having a lovely holiday at the time |

"In the garden is a stone pan pipe playing cherub that was left by the previous owners.
My youngest named him Phil. "
We found broken garden ornaments left by the previous owners. They were buried under the water feature, probably to bulk up the soil. There was also a buried toilet brush and holder. Oddly we didn't put it on display. Or name it. |

Surely Basil deserved some respect. |

I have, I think he's supposed to be Godzilla but not sure, but he is eating a little garden gnome and has a gnome under each arm and one under his foot. My brother bought him for me as a joke I love him. |
