Bordon, Hampshire. English eccentric Jack Punter has decorated his garden like a crazy grotto. Various shots of his excellent concrete sculptures and strange bits and pieces. Jack makes a concrete and stone crocodile destined to be a garden ornament. He picks up one he has made earlier and places it by his fish ponds. Jack climbs on to a stone covered bench and bends down touching his toes to show how supple he is (he’s sixty six you know!). Jack’s wife returns home and closes the gate - encrusted with stones. C/Us of little houses Jack has made. Narrator informs us that Jack was advised against building this crazy house (“do-it-yourself gone mad“) by doctors due to his thrice fractured skull (!). He has done everything himself including making all the cement and carrying all the stone. Pretty cool! FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
