according to the BBC each gnome knocks UKP500 off the value of your
house.
Ah, but I was thinking of flogging - as you were - selling them, not
erectin^^^^standing them up in my front garden.
Hmmmm. I used to know a place which went by the name of 'Gnome Hall'.
I'd guess the inhabitants lived in negative equity.....
I passed on the link to the BBC report about gnomes reducing the value
of a house to a Dutch woman. Local taxes are levied based on the value
of ones house. The Dutch woman intends to fill her garden with gnomes,
which I think she makes and then ask the local authority to revalue=20
her house.
I await the headline
"Gnome population explosion in Groningen, Groningen local authority
bankrupt"
--=20
