@whovianbadwolf I have been reading up on them, they started appearing around the city in 2001, originally they were graffiti painted by a protest group called the Orange Alternative, but soon the city government saw their potential as a tourist attraction!
We could not have that small statuary here because some person would fall over it and sue the government, and the artist and the manufacturer, and the artist's parents and the artist's neighbors... See where I'm going with this??
Lovely to the Mrs. She still makes me smile. :)
Thanks for this adventure, but I must tell you, 'there is no place like gnome.'
Be well,
Dave

"Orange Alternative": 'Can you treat a police officer seriously, when he is asking you the question': "Why did you participate in an illegal meeting of dwarfs?"
@ajdpadbury Great stuff, would definitely recommend Ostrów Tumski or the laser show at the fontanna, I'm sure you would make some fantastic videos of those sights!
