Eeek!

So who didn't double and triple check exactly how tall the giraffe sculpture is? Uh huh. ME!

Here they all are in the charity's warehouse, awaiting distribution.


Hmmm, thought I, those look much taller than 7ft, unless that lady is a lot shorter than she appears... and yup they are actually 2.5m tall. Which is 8.2 feet.

So who is now revising her plans for housing her giraffe in the covered alley down the side of the house, and wondering how we're going to get him into the living room at all? ME! There will be clearance as the ceiling is 9ft, but only just. Plus how will he fit through the doors...

Maybe I need to do some rapid reassessments and work out whether I need to paint him in situ in Worcester!

LOL! My SPN-obsessed mind goes immediately to Tall creatures (heh...moose, giraffe...all SO TALL!)

Nobody's done a Moose trail yet, that I know of - or even a squirrel - and they really, really SHOULD!

Oops, you might need a bigger house...

Oooo, that's a biggun! O.o I can't wait until you get the big guy situated, so we can see what lovely artings you've planned for him.

And yes, giant moose and squirrels should exist ... and you'd be just the one to do them justice.

WOW, holy shit hun, that's a bit of a problem! I have no doubt you'll work it out, but damn they're tall!

Ohhhhh shoot!!!! That's definitely bigger than the 7ft you mentioned. Do you have a back up plan? Yikes

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

my backup plan is lying him down LOL! Luckily he's not very wide so it's really just a length problem... *tee hee thinks dirty thoughts about Jared*

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Very, very tall... LOL!

I'd love to do a SPN-themed design! But I doubt it would be approved.

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Indeed!

Phew!!! You had me worried there *hehe now |'m thinking dirty thoughts about Jared*

Perhaps it's time to think about a bit of home improvement and create a mezzanine? You know, two birds, one stone ...

*snorts* Oh dear.

I was just reading up on your posts and was relieved that Paul still had a place to sit with the hare. Your adventures with these animals are a lot of fun to follow, but I can't help but shake my head a lot. :-p

So, when are you going to take out the doors and widen the frames? ;)
