i have now recovered from having my bits poked around by security and then spending hours waiting on the tarmac at Heathrow...YES!! i am on british soil.
my first port of call was the pub (i 'swam' around a bit and found a likely looking one)...after several beers i was starting to feel lucky, after all who could resist a pesky gnome.
as i looked around for a bit of action, two things were quite noticeable, first no one actually seemed to be in the pub, they were all outside having a 'smoke' (due to the clean air rules) and secondly lady gnomes are very thin on the ground...i have now set myself a mission of finding myself a 'sweet young british lassy' gnome to have a summer fling with...
hoping he gets lucky soon ~ a pesky gnome

You arrived just in time for smoke free pubs! I am living the new laws: I canfinally knit in pubs without my wool stinking.
to pesky gnome, if you get lonely, we have 3 gnomes living in a tree in out back garden (don't ask, they were there when we moved in!), no ladies i'm afraid, just a bunch of blokes : )
Welcome to England Mr Gnome, hope you enjoy your stay :)
Welcome to UK! I live in the wonderful Cotswolds - hoping you get to visit this area on your travels as it's lovely. Looking forward to more pictures of the Gnome's adventures.

gnome? are you drunk? that woman is such a bad influence. hope you're enjoying the rain. the bbc have given up on wimbledon, they're showing back to back john mcenroe documentaries...which i quite enjoy. i think i know more about his career that he does, i should go on mastermind.
on the behalf of all us british bloggers let me welcome you! Hope that the weather is not a such a disappointment, and I wish you luck on finding lots of lovely things to take home with you. You didn't get caught up in that bomb scare at heathrow did you?

Good lucky Pesky Knome, I have heard there are some very 'hot' lady knomes in the British countryside who may not be averse to a bit of pesking!

Pesky Gnome, it was a delight to meet you the other day and I am now aware that you are a gnome of other hidden talents!! I cannot wait to hear more of your travels as you definitely look like trouble to me. Enjoy your visit!
Did you put somewhere where you got that gnome? I love it and the fact it sits in a pub next to a beer! What a long voyage you had. Hopefully jetlag does not ruin your weekend. bring back some vintage textiles will ya?
