I love garden gnomes I have about 150 but are missing the one where the gnome is a transvestite. they get very grubby and just wondering if anyone had any tips

Yeh, put condoms on them before you use them.

Give them a nice hot soapy bath.

wait till we get better weather and give them a hose down

put it in a bucket of coke overnight - no luck from this - throw it in a fire

gnomes, eh? I had a gnome once.

Aren't you going to suggest painting them, Kathy?

yes, yes I will!

I painted my gnome.

I once had gnomes, and the little devils had names, Then they started to disappear, I still think hubby had something to do with it. Give them a scrub down with cif, gets the winter dirt and green of. Then rinse of with the hose.

give them to someone to take on holiday - you'll get a postcard and just say the dirt is a tan

How are the gnomes?

Take them to Harley Street for an acid peel...they will be clean and look 10 years younger

Don't care much for gnomes, instead I've got a classical Greek lady and a rabbit with two babies (no sign of any more yet )

Jenny I have a few stone rabbits , have to keep your eye on those, could end up with a garden full.

I can only see mum at the moment, her offspring are hidden by bluebells!
