Mum loves collecting ornaments for her garden. It’s close to
having gnomes, but she will only accept animals and not dressed-up ones, no
matter what they’re wearing. We have a squirrel with a hole in its tail, an owl
with reflective eyes that no longer work, possible because of the lack of
sunlight that they’re getting. There’s a stone tortoise, hedgehog, a mole, and a hare. A snail sits
atop what was once our barbecue, and there’s a duck there too. While I was at a
garden superstore, I though I’d add to the collection but couldn’t remember
which animals we’d already got. The only way to resolve this was to take a
picture so that she could see what was for sale. She did have her eye on the
painted snail, but unfortunately it was only the damaged ones that were
reduced, and she felt the others were much too dear. At least I have an idea of
what to get her for Christmas now.
