Mon 25 April 2005 - What the?

Seen adorning the front garden of a house in Droop Street, Footscray.

Something

Any ideas, anybody?

(Thanks for use of the camera, Justine)

    Trying to prove the street doesn’t live up to its name?? ;-)

    Looks like a plush toy in the shape of a giant hummingbird feeder (or hemaroid treatment device)

    Candles used to be skinny tall things and you needed only a small device to snuff them out. Now candles can be huge, and so it must be a candle snuffer. Poor design though as the material looks flammable.

    It’s a leftover pinata from the Mardi Gras. Ouch, that’s a horrible thought.

  5. William Says:

    a pink condom on steroids.

    Um, a adornment for the garden to garner scorn, perhaps? ROFLMAO @ the comments above mine. Lovely ideas people. My guess? What the hell is this thing sez the lady and sticks it outside LOL.

    Do they have small children? It could perhaps be something the kiddlies wrap their legs around and swing on? It doesn’t look terribly stable though, does it. Maybe a child’s plush punching bag for anger release purposes, with base to stop it swinging so much?

    It has what looks to be an eye (hence, probably a face) on the right hand side of the photo. Therefore I would think it is a child’s stuffed toy…. with a reservoir tip…..
