It is a good job that they were in the US as the $$$$$ signs on my statement alerted me to the fact that it wasn't just me running up the bills.<BR/>It was also easy to prove that I hadn't been in texas at the time.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14576982065729973318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2698879802773566105.post-29441411582982227312007-12-06T12:15:00.000-08:002007-12-06T12:15:00.000-08:00Well I for one was not in the least bit surprised ...Well I for one was not in the least bit surprised that 6 pesky gnomes appeared on your doorstep, I had you pegged as a girl who attracts such things, you see when I first came across you in bloglandia you were actually travelling the UK with a gnome. But yes, I can see that there maybe be trouble ahead, they obviously have a liking for 'the bottle' . . . but so pleased you got not 6 but 10 to die for red plates.

I've printed out the pic of the gnomes and me and my co-workers are sitting here dissecting them and hoping to re-create something similar for a craft here @ work (we're Children's Librarians) they are the cutest, I wish I had a World Market around here.<BR/>3.)
