A couple of years ago a good friend of mine bought me one of these as a present : It was horrible, naff, filthy thing, guaranteed to lower the level of any garden into which it was placed.....and it had to sit in ours. It sat in our garden, drawing comments from guests, window cleaners and builders alike. All commented on how hideous it was till it finally gave up the ghost after a couple of years. The lamp no longer illuminates his hastily airbrushed fur so it was time for a new lease of life.......and revenge! After a quick trip to Maplin this morning and a couple of hours work, BEHOLD! Revenge will be sweet when I present his gift to him in the pub tomorrow evening.
The fucking thing came back for my birthday......with interest! Its been sprayed gold and has a silk bow!
He pimped my meerkat! I need ideas for the return journey! Feel free to contribute. The previous picture didnt give a true idea of just HOW gold it is!
