Irish dancing or throwing the javelin. When Ayeisha discovered hockey, she was hooked!

    Jenny found her husband Billy in his garden chair. He had passed away with a smile on his face, and in his hand he was holding his favourite gnome, the one called MOLAC. The old gardener had died a happy man. He knew about the secret. What he hadn't been aware of, though, were the adventures Archie and Joe were going to be involved in, because of their love for the Gnomes. This was a pity. Billy Potts would have enjoyed the adventure.
