It really is all very exciting and good to see that so many local school children have got involved with the project.
I am looking forward to trotting round town to see them on public display, but these three chaps agreed to be photographed with me while still in "cold storage" so to speak.
They were very friendly and certainly well worth a visit.

Good to see you getting out and about a bit, work off the effect of all those sausages!
Got to agree those penguins are cute, even better than the lamb bananas.
It was good of you to drop in Dude, and many thanks to the Lib Dem Council for commissioning us to go on display and raise awareness of climate change.
I bet Joe wouldn't have given us the job, he'd have spent it on his pay rise instead.
I think it's brilliant, just absolutely fabulous that this LibDem blog has drawn attention to a bunch of decorated plastic penguins.
This demonstrates - not that it could ever be doubted - exactly how the LibDems assess the city's priorities. Of all the issues that could be blogged about today, this blog selects penguins.
Not, you notice, the damning report on Council tendering incompetence. Not either the absurd story headlining today's Daily Post seeking to railroad planning permission in favour of a Wirral 'restauranteur'.
Nope, none of that. Right in front of their brain, you find Penguins. Surprised? You're kidding me!
I hope you didn't start cocking your leg on them !
Are they doing an Ice-flow Clucas Penguin?
Or perhaps a Waddle Bradley?
How about a Paul Cleinmate Change?
Ronnie, I don't think you quite get the concept of a blog. It's not News at 10, it's a collection of musings and activities of the blogger. And Dude's decision on what to write about is final.
If you want to see a blog discussing the merits of what the Daily Post puts on it's front page, go and start one yourself.
Ronnie De Ramper is rapidly becoming the chief troll of the Mersey political blogs.
To suggest I would do such a thing! I would never cock my leg on a major piece of public art.
What's your problem, Ronnie? The penguins are very popular with families and kids alike. You jealous or what? Why don't you go and blog somewhere else for a change. Oh yes, you can't be bothered unless it's anti-Lib Dem. Isn't that what you've been told to do by Joe Ando, the brainless one?
Can we have a Joe Anderson penguin please ?
Ronnie de Ramper hits the nail on the head, although the penguins are cute and all that, the City is in debt and services are being cut left right and centre! Regardless of the fun aspect, how can this expence be justified?
Also how can the expence of Bradders be justified going to other countries? Trying to sell Liverpool is good but the cost to the tax payer in such dire conditions cannot in my opinion be justified.
If this blog is not political, then why bother mentioning political issues?
Make your mind up Dude.
"Expence" (twice)! No wonder Labour people have problems with returns.
Mr chips, whatever was written twice, does not change the topic. What do you have to say on the issue?
Penguins are better than penquince
First the Lib Dems brought us Stupidlambanana; then multi-coloured penguins. Next May, they will hang round the neck of Liverpool's citizens a £120 mill Albatross
And that's why we wouldn't have had capital of culture under a Labour council.
It's attitudes like Ronnie's in the Labour party that helped turn Liverpool into an economic no mans land in the 80's and 90's.
And yet again we see proof that they still haven't learned anything.
Polo, this blog like any other blog is my personal online diary to share a little dog's musings on the world, not an official chatroom or forum. I blog about everything from sausages to politics and anything else that amuses me. But as with all blogs I, as author, decide what I want to talk about each day.
I know that it's rapidly turning into THE place to discuss politics in Liverpool, but if you want a completely serious forum then go to Vote 2007 or UK Polling Report or any other site where people can start their own topics for discussion.
I'm looking forward to the next Labour leaflet attacking the penguins and lambananas. Go on, I dare you to tell the voters.
