From the Sun: The Eiffel Flowers

WACKY Gerard Brion shows off his in-Seine creation – a model of Paris built out of rubbish in his flower beds.

The Frenchman, 29, has spent 15 years crafting landmarks including the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe and Sacré Coeur out of old concrete blocks, baby food jars and soup tins.
