    I will use this topic to show you all some places the Eccentric Gnome has been to :D (note: it's fictional and a bit of fun)

    First up here's me at Stonehenge. I don't know whether I was supposed to be climbing on the rocks but I got away with it didn't I :D

    More soon when I have time to delve through the albums.

    And my grandmother almost consigned her mother to a closet because she insisted there was this gnome on Ellis Island.

    But, my family lore includes a gnome with them on the Mayflower. Ancestor of yours, then?

    My first immigrant ancestor came here in 1848 as an alternative to debtors' prison in The Netherlands. Things have not improved much since then. Guess they didn't have a gnome with them.

    Aha - proof at last! The Statue of Liberty is really just a very, very, very large garden gnome!
