Who
or what are Garden gnomes ?
There
is a wonderful trilogy of stories by Terry Pratchett
called Truckers, Diggers and Wings which tell
the story of where gnomes really came from, how
they lived on planet earth and their escape back
to their origins. So the next time you look at
your garden gnomes - take care because they may
be watching you.

some
history of garden gnomes
The
international family of gardening gnomes dates
back to the era when the form of the globe consolidated
out of Chaos, and the forces responsible for precious
and base metals and precious stones implanted
them beneath the surface of the earth. Unlike
men, gnomes learn from the past and they also
have the ability to predict and learn from the
future. Their name derives from the Greek word
gignosko, meaning 'to learn, understand', and
the principal gnome characteristic is an acute
understanding of every aspect of the Cosmos.
Garden gnomes are about 12 centimeters tall and
formed in proportion. They resemble the original
people of their host country, so that a Beijing
gnome is Chinese in appearance, a Hairy Peruvian
gnome resembles a native of Peru, and so on. Apart
from their small size, a notable difference between
gnomes and humans is their expression of ageless
good humor. Garden gnomes lack the human facility
for worrying, practice therapeutic festivity,
and consequently live for several hundred years.
Garden
gnome character is helpful and benign. Gignosko
provides them with insight into the spirits of
all animate and inanimate creatures and objects,
so that they find it easy to influence and co-operate
with trees, tools, animals, plants, and every
other creation of the Cosmos and its inhabitants.
