Bristol has had Grommit and now Shaun the Sheep, Gloucester has Scrumptys. Apparently the Humpty Dumpty nursery rhyme came from Gloucester (some big gun or cannon that fell off a wall and was smashed to pieces), hence the egg shape. Gloucester Rugby Club is hosting some of the Rugby Union World Cup games later this year and the egg is sort of rugby ball shaped I guess. Anyway, this one must be to commemorate the Glorious Gloucester and is outside Gloucester Cathedral. There were lots of excited (and I mean excited) children with maps looking for more throughout the city. Go England!
I didn't realise these were in Gloucester!. Mind you I very rarely go there so it's hardly surprising. I shall have to make the effort and find one now. Great fun shot.
