On Wednesday we went to Marmsbury and in particular to Abbey house gardens ( the naked gardeners ). We loved it! It's is probably the most interesting garden we have seen. It is full of curios with twists and turns and some magnificent planting. We also had to chuckle to ourselves because low and behold Ian ( who partly owns the property with his estranged wife ) was out in the garden tending to it, with a long T-shirt on and boots, and what looked like nothing else. We didn't get too near him just in case lol.
We were also very sad to hear via an eavesdropped conversation that he has to sell the property due to his wife filing for divorce. We know that the town are very worried that who ever buys it, will close it to the public thus ending the Torist attraction that brings in wealth to the small town. So my plea to Tony who may purchase the property, is let us still have this magnificent and wonderfully interesting garden available to us if only for some time of the year.
Anyway I've got carried away! Here is my interpretation of one of the gargoyles we found there. I hope you like it as much as I enjoyed creating it.
Thanks for looking and I'll see you very soon

Well, I can't say he's very pretty, lol, but he's definitely interesting and a clever drawing! Thanks for the story behind it Debs and I hope your pleas don't fall on deaf ears.
