Gnomes 2009
A Gnome Away from home 2009 was rip roaring success.
Friday night quiz night posed the usual curley questions, Farewell spit featured in saturday’s entertainment and on sunday was the very first Gnome Run almost twenty participants tore around the course, some running some walking.
The gnome tossing and bungee thrilled all participants and the crowd alike.
Takaka’s citizens band performed in the street as they have never been seen before.
Colin coke and Alan Swafford entertained with gnome flavoured busking before the street race.
Here are some of the pictures.

I’ve often wondered where the world’s Gnomes go to have reunions. I know the one’s missing from my garden are somewhere having the time of their lives in New Zealand!
Wish I could join them. If they don’t return, I will be sad, but understanding. When it’s time to move on……..then move on.
Looking forward to seeing the pictures of 2010’s festivities.
