It's arriving on Thursday!!

His name was going to be Geoffrey, BUT he shall be known as Humphrey!

 

Great news, al. I know you've been hankering after one for a little while now. And he definitely is "Hump Free"

Can't wait to see him in his Forever Home - he's going to look stunning!

 

I'm sure your little ones have watched Madagascar @al n
You should name him Melman

 

There is nothing "manly" about that giraffe (just LOOK at those eyelashes!!)

 

They're falsies "M"

 

There's a place near us that makes metal giraffes like that a well as elephants

 

I'd want real eyelashes for authenticity ( giraffe)

 

It's not Black Country metal works is it bilbo?

 

No al, not that one, their name escapes me at the moment, they used to have a big place in our town and then closed and moved to a smaller premises up the road

 

Remembered now, Brookhill Home & Garden Supplies, here's their giraffes

 

When driving it home don't forget The Low Bridge

 

WOW!! How tall does he stand?

Val

 

I'm sure it will be well looked after, if you want to see African animals in metalwork at a GC go to Akamba at Shirley south of Brum.

 

10 ft val, but its going in the bottom border with the boos etc which is 2ft higher than the lawn so that's 12 ft all in!

 

Blimey Al n! You and your neighbourhood will see it coming from streets away. It's certainly going to cause a stir!
