Giant Meerkat created out of straw

By Benjamin Humphrey, Published July 25, 2010
Staff at Snugburys Ice Cream Farm in Hurleston have recently finished work on a 36 ft tall Meerkat made out of steel and hay!
While it doesn’t appear to have anything to do with Ubuntu, it’s certainly very cool and a coincidence that they should choose to create a Meerkat during the 10.10 cycle!

    I drive past this every day on my way to work! My first thought was ‘I never knew they were so fond of linux!’ Brilliant sculpture, they do different ones every year, with special themed (and huge) ice creams. Most excellent ice cream too.
