Why am I not suprised you have gnomes.
I don't have any but when my mum was alive she had a good collection of them and also a few animals one being a pair of donkeys that had a pot holder on there backs which I accidentally knocked an ear off of one once and never owned up but when she saw it she blamed my poor old dad lol.
Anyway to cut a very long story short nearly every year I knocked an ear of and sure enough she gave poor old dad stick over it but the funny thing is in her last few weeks of life she asked me to look after them when she was gone as she was convinced dad hated them.
They really aren't my thing so dad still has them and no ears have accidentally fallen off since.

Ha that's lovely Gordon ! Memories like that last a lifetime even if the ears don't! I'm taking it you were a kid !!?
Always remember Prince Charles says 'ears' when he actually says yes.
I will now remember that story when Prince Charles speaks ! CB
