Allotments 4 All

Some of our Indian plotholders called me to take a photo of their scarecrows today.  I don't know what I was expecting, but I wasn't expecting the Elephant Man and his wife!  I couldn't stop laughing and they were the same.  They've even put a bindi mark on the wife's forehead. 
Unfortunately they have done them too late for the competition, which was judged yesterday.

Here they are, Mr and Mrs Elephant Man

What fab scarecrows my attempt by way of homage to yours found on A4 is shown here.

I think this such a neat idea, I wonder if it would fly here XX Jeannine

Could that pair really frighten the birds? They're the cuddliest scarecrows I've ever seen!  ;D

Yours is lovely macmac, he looks very relaxed. ;)

Squash several people have remarked that he bears a striking resemblance to my OH.                                                                                                                 I'm saying nothing ;)

That's what people say about mine!  ;)

After seeing Bettys handiwork I just had to have a go. When it was finished Tony and I decicded that it looked too much like the bloke over the road so we had to take it out with a bin bag over its head.
BTW his names Bert

It's Scarecrow Smith's long-lost brother Shirl!  Why don't you put him on SS's page on Facebook?
I love him, he looks really grumpy!

Brilliant, Shirl..he looks like lots of the bowlers by us  ;D

Nah the neighbour is Sid. I was tempted cos he does look like a Sid but thought better of it ;D

Oh you get to polish your halo then  :D

Those are all a scream.  It gave me the idea this might be a fun project to do with a grandchild.

Shirl, yours has  a beautiful garden to sit in. What a great picture!
