What a great thing to see today. That is one huge thumb, even considering how big the hand is! Wonderful!

How odd! I can think of more attractive bookends, Debs 🙂 🙂

A very long thumb, rather unnatural

That thumb is not kidding. “By George, I think he’s got it,”

Yes. I might have to look up the size now. I’m not sure how much is the angle of the shot and the lens. It looks taller than Nelsons Column!

I couldn’t resist a bit of googling! The thumb was 7 metres tall. Nelson is 5.5 metres, but that’s not including his column!

And I’ve no idea where it is now, but you can buy a miniature copy for £450. A perfect bookend apparently 🙂
