Silly Week 2010

 

During the last few years I became rather an acquaintance of the gnome people so I was wandering around, hoping to meet one of them this year again.

But during the last weeks, the weather detoriated a bit, it started to snow so I nearly gave up hope to meet a gnome. But, on a sunny afternoon, I had the honour and privilege to meet the Santa Claus gnome......!

Just before he started his tour to bring presents to the little gnome-children, he gave me a moment of his time for a little chat.

As you can see, he was holding a sac with presents and he was ready for departure but it was a nice chat that I had with him; it was a pity he had a very tight time-table so he left me with lots of questions.....

Again it was a little metal figure kit containing only 5  pieces, build by Elisena. Just clean the seams and you can start painting. It is fun to do because there are no rules you have to follow! Just your imagination!!

I hope you enjoy the photos, best wishes for a healthy 2010!

Best regards and have fun!
