Rudolph

Thursday, 21st December 2006 by Alex

We’re getting in a very Christmassy spirit here at GGSS HQ, so we were very pleased to receive this submission of a pond in the shape of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer!

Well at this time of year it’s a Rudolph-shaped pond anyway, as the owner strings lights round the edge - including a large, strategically-placed red one. The rest of the year this is just a plain ol’ common-or-garden John Deere logo-shaped pond…

Thanks to Michael O’Donnell.

    Everyone knows the guys in Nirvana were huge fans of Reindeer, sure it’s a loose connection, but it’s a connection none-the-less.
