Big head.


Wilson has made a full-size papier-mâché model of one of his proposed Easter Island Heads. He said he wanted to 'get a feel for how it will look.' 
How it looks is: Enormous. Huge. Gargantuan. Monstrous. 
It is so massive that it would have looked out of place at the Hampton Court Flower Show. It totally overpowers my lovely little garden, but W is not listening to me; he just goes on about what a huge attraction it will be for his Charity Garden Open Day.  
Seeing that I have some reservations, W tries to console me by saying that 'the papier-mâché model doesn't really give you the full effect,' and it will look 'much better and totally authentic' when it's been cast in concrete. 
Strangely, this doesn't altogether reassure me.
