from Lena Eldstahl

Recently I visited London, travelling from Sweden (not Switzerland). At the youth hostel I lived at, Forest Gate, I recognized a Gnomes head sticking out from the dirt in the garden of the house. Turned out to be a Gnome laying on his belly reading a book, deep in the dirt! I didn´t know what to do so I discussed the problem with my travelling companions, mother and two sisters, we decided to steal it. The touble we went trough to bring him home to Sweden was worth it, he is now recovering with new paint in original colors and in the future we´ll try to variate his reading. Outdoor activity is not an option right now, he doesn´t seem confident yet. Later in the summer he´s joining us in the garden at barbeques and other occations. But only daytime! At night he prefers sleeping at the balcony of our flat. My children loves him, helped enthusiasticly to clean and groom him before painting. Gnomes Away!
