Here is Patrick

I allways wanted a garden gnome. I have a garden and I think of myself as a dedicated gardener. I think every garden.... and gardener... should have a garden gnome. In spring, when the assistant and I went to a garden centre I saw some really nice gnomes. I wanted one, really wanted one, but I had spend all my money on plants and the assitant bought a solar frog. So I didn't get the garden gnome.

Then Henry came to see. You know Henry? He is @henryandfriends on Intertwitter. Both Henry and I wanted to go to the garden centre and the assistant had soem things she needed too. When we got back to the cottage Henry had got me a garden gnome.
He didn't say much at first, but when we placed him by the bird bath he opened up. His name is Patrick and here he is with me and Henrietta.  Thanks to Henry I feel that my garden is a nicer place now and Patrick is really happy with his new home.
