Seil Chat

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that seil and luing have become home to retired garden gnomes , beardie small folk with bobbly hats one
works on the cuan ferry
Has anyone else seen them?.

Ja - I've seen one building walls ...and I think another builds boats on Luing. I'm sure there's more though?

Theres one who takes photos of birds.......

.No-one posts anything on here for weeks, then as soon as I post something semi-significant to do with the site it gets knocked off the top spot by a gnome posting!

Typical . . .

Never mind, I will return to the post and sticky it . . . .

Why has it been so quiet anyway? Everyone out gnome spotting? It can't have been because the weather is so good . . .

What he takes photo's of ladies?

Let it be known that there is a gnome rescue facility available for any unwanted gnomes. They are free to frolic on a 5 acre farm without fear of persecution. Each Gnome is assured a loving and safe home.

So gather up all the gnomes and ship them here. I will put on the kettle for them.

Good to see you're prepared to do your bit for the sma' folk.

I hope your 'Gnome on the range' will have the regulation red and white spotted toadstools and plenty fishing rods.

I think I spotted another one under the cliff at the car park in Ellenabeich?

We alos have the prerequesite wishing wells, bridges over the stream and gnome doors and windows on trees.

There's an extra ordinary tall one wot grows veg just before Tory row.......

Check out the modern/naughty gnomes on the Gnomeland.co.uk website. There's a few I'd like to get for my front garden!!

Perhaps you could go incognito and sit in my front garden to watch out for suspicious activity! Mind you, I expect you might get exposed if you dress up as one to infiltrate the planning department.

Do we need planning permission for garden gnomes? - we seem to need them for just about everything else!

Do we need planning permission for garden gnomes?

I'm not sure....why not ask the wee baldy gnome?

He seems to have a thorough knowledge of these things

Which garden does he hang out in?

I think he's got a red and white spotted toadstool in Balvicar?

Be carerful - he can be a bit tetchy on all things planning

Youse are all off the scent Seil andLuing are the facilities theyve been brought to life set free on our bonny shores they live under cliffs,build walls work on ferries , walk bogs and ofcourse object to anything that employs folks, like catching prawns.

I can't believe the gardens gnomes would do a thing like that! The ones in my garden certainly wouldn't. Mind you, I did notice a few missing on the day of the recent planning inquiry. I thought they'd just nipped off to the pub.

So, now we know that we all need planning consent for any size of garden shed (well, those who live a a conservation area) who's gonna be brave enough to put one up without it? Will the gnomes spill the beans?

Do I hear "Oh! No they wont!" "Oh! Yes they will!"?

I try to comment on the top 5 but I am struggling to follow this one.

.........play with wee spanners?

I see eric you are attending the Canadian School of Joinery, I hear this establishment provides high quality planning advice, and also a good module on riding old bikes. I was quivering with post orgasmic delight that you have followed in the footsteps of some of Seils more voluble members of the comunity.
