    Hey guys, I just wanted to share with you my new ornament thingy lol. I saw him in a shop and he was all on his own, I couldnt help but laugh at him and for some reason had to get him! Now I have him home im not sure whether to keep him inside or out lol. I think he is a garden ornament? but whether he will rust im not sure. So what do you think? I cant work out what it is about him I like but somehow I do:hehe:

    Hi kaytee ... seems like there are several of us with this good taste ....

    Like you, as soon as I saw it I had to have it. I love the way he bobs with the slightest breeze. Mine has been outdoors since I got him for my birthday 29 April .... but we've had no rain since then. However, I hose every night and he gets wet but he's not rusted yet!

    Hi, kaytee, mine was not a fiver I can assure you. Obi came from Obidos north of Lisbon ... a very expensive walled city where I spent my birthday. He was in front of a shop on the one cobbled street in the walled city nodding and smiling at me as I walked up back to the castle which I was staying in ... and he stole my heart ... regardless of cost ... just look at those cheeky chops ....

    Obi sends love and kisses (beijinhos) to Alfred .... k-l
