Charlton Gnomes

edited February 2010 in General Charlton
Was in Club shop today, the Charlton gnomes are truly hideous, so I bought one for the mother in law! Anyone else got one?

  • I am waiting for my nans birthday to come around so I can buy her one. yes truly hideous
  • Got one from a garden centre in Dartford a few years back. Present for the father-in-law. As far as gnomes go it is actually ok.
  • how much did they pay you to model for the day AFKA ?

    you and me are going to have words
  • Pure class Kap!
    Its been currently indognito in the flower beds at work.
    Not sure it will last if discovered by the local Baggies
    Makes I smile each morning tho

    Thinking of taking it on tour this summer - remember that Australian one that went on world trips? And the one from Gloucester?

    Taking one to father in law in Japan... well its rude not to!
  • i was hoping i got one for my birthday alas no so keep meaning to pop in to buy one.

    they are the nuts
  • haha, i've just remembered - the night of your birthday when we said we had to go you said - "you can get me a gnome"
  • did i? at 9 oclock at night?

    i must give up drinking.
  • it was your birthday so you're allowed!
  • I LOVE MY GNOME (almost as much as Lloydie)

  • I'm gonna get one for my mother in law...

    Should brighten up the cemetary no end...
  • At least it does what it says on the box, ie it gnomes
    Unlike the all time biggest rip off in Charlton Merchandising history, that poxy Charlton bath duck.
    I mean how the hell could you design (or puchase it for your, #ahem#, superstore) if it cant do the one thing in life it is created for ie float

    Got one Christmas before last, put in the bath and it sunk faster than a takeover thread.
  • I suspect the gnome sinks too, although the irony would be if it did not. I'll check that out if I bury the MIL at sea.
  • Mine floated for just over half the season then quickly sunk to the bottom of the sea!
  • says on the bottom, do not use after february.
  • We bought one when they first came out. I jokingly said to my Dad we could get 11 and paint ones shirt green. They missed a trick not making them in different positions like the lil cricket teams you can get.
  • Hey Red F
    Speaking as an utterly discontented customer 'they' missed a trick in making the damned thing float.

    I was furious when those tossers in power took us to an illegal war but that pales into complete insignificance when compared to the daylight robbery of the great Charlton duck- up scandal.


    Thank goodness the gnomes are so awesome.

    It eases the pain

  • Umm, is there a trend here? My Charlton mug lost all its print in the dishwasher and is now just plain white!
  • I remember puting my white Redbus shirt in the wash with all the players signatures on the back & accidently put some Vanish in with the washing powder, let's just say that the Vanish does just what it says on the tub!
  • have they stopped making the gnomes then? Think the would be crazy if they did...

    mind you i think they will become collectors items in a few years time!!
  • You've got a big bath tub floyd!
  • edited August 2010
    I may have a big bathtub, I call it the Agean, but enjoying it in the company of a floating Charlton Duck is as likely as Dravids not being the new Hasselbaink.
    Coz floating still aint gonna happen, and no, I havent got over it.
    Like velcro, an astounding rip off, belying the stupidity of the superstore purchasing 'department'
    I mean what else does a duck have to do but float
    Jeez
    ;-)
  • For those of you "unforunate" to miss out on purchasing a rubber duck, They are currently selling "rubber-duckie keyrings" for £2.99. Now everytime i lose my keys, i just look in the bottom of my bath tub and there they are....Brilliant
  • lol tango.

    I might have to purchase one of these non floating ducks.

    Hilarious, might have to buy one tomorrow
  • There are just TWO gnomes left in the shop, and once they're gone, they're gone.

    You have been warned !

    My gnome is off to hibernate for a few months... and then when he come's out he will be a collectors item.
