From memory I’d say she was between 7-9ft tall (or is that long?) I have more images of Heligan in my Webshots Album you are welcome to view but could be boring if you like to see lots of flowers as it mainly consists of Palms Ferns Bananas and Bamboo. ???

Hello Plocket and William. Here is a German relation of your Grots - a water cousin! I had to laugh when I saw him in my German magazine.

Thanx William, it is a beautiful part of our country, there are a load more of Cornwall pics if you want to pass 5mins away, there’s Trebah, Pine Lodge, The old Mill Herbary, Lamorran House Gardens, Trelissick Gardens and good old Brum.(which isn’t in CW) ::) 8)

Sarah I think the water feature is excellent! I love the hands and want to make some for my Grots now!

Roy the photos are lovely - what lovely weather you had!

William? What are we going to do with you?

Do you get Brum in the Netherlands William? My children adored the programme when they were little. I think he's in a motor museum somewhere now.

They all remind me of a Painter and Doper I met in the R.A.F called "Dave the Grott" (Exelent glider pilot though).  Later I heard of him in Oman where the Bedouwin called "Camel Spider".  Cheers, Tony.
