Just thought I'd share this statue/model in Birmingham. It's been there a couple of years and is covered in plants. Wouldn't like to "shave" it to keep it trim.

Wallace and Gromit welcome you

Wallace and Gromit welcome you


Wallace and Gromit are on Great Charles Street!

If you're travelling into Birmingham keep an eye out for the cheese loving inventor and his faithful hound.
Poised on a motorbike and side carriage on Great Charles Street, Wallace and Gromit are welcoming anyone coming into the city via the Queensway tunnel.
