Now all this "twin business" is getting a bit much so I won't labour the point...but they do look very alike, don't they...well that's my first coincidence...then, just the other day my neighbour gave me this book called "Paris: Made by Hand"...voila:

...and in the book was a photo of this odd mechanical-looking little Parisian fellow with black boots and a lot of personality...

anyway...I had come across one of these fellows a few weeks before at an op shop in a little church only 5 minutes away from my home...mine has red boots...he doesn't walk far but he can still take quite a few steps...

I call him Gizmo.
