My "Grot"

[Roy Bham UK]

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. ???

Nice Pics Roy,

Almost unbelievable that this is Cornwall

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.

[William O]

Like it, especially the hands... ;D

[Roy Bham UK]

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)

Roy ;D

[William O]

Brum ??? ???



;D

[Plocket]

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?

[Sarah V Bertram]

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.

[Mrs Ava]

Wowzers plocket!  You are so clever and artistic, and I would love to see your models William.  I can already sense next years competition.....most cute/unusual/weird/wonderful grot!

Saved the link and you just know I am going to have to have a go!!!!!  ;D

[William O]

Hi Sarah, not quite sure about BRUM on dutch TV, but once (quite a while ago)  while channel hopping I saw it motoring along on the BBC, I've never forgotten it since  ;D

[Lady Cosmos]

O yes, Brum is on Dutch TV, between 8.30 and 9.00 uur in the morning on childrens channel. broem broem  ;D ;D

[Sarah V Bertram]

Engagingly English and eccentric is how I'd describe it!

[Sarah V Bertram]

Sorry Lady Cosmos, I was replying to William. Glad to hear our eccentric little car is on Dutch TV!

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.
