Gnome Rescue - photos courtesy Karalyn Brown- photos from Cootamundra (WORD doc)
John Dawson, David Cook, Trevor Lloyd and Karalyn Brown with Utes, Trailers and 4WD rescue 1500 gnomes from Cootamundra. Gnome Rescue, Lower Blue were contacted via the solicitor managing the deceased estate, via our very own AustralianGnomeConvention.com.au website, and asked if we could 'rescue' the gnomes.
Many thanks to these people from Cootamundra who helped on the day with scones, jam, tea, good humour and physical labour - Helen Hamilton (wife of Rotarian Hugh), (4) Dorothy Pryce ( wife of Rotarian PP Fr. Bill Pryce), (5) PP Neil Wilcox, (6) PP Hugh Hamilton,
The photos say it all!
