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.

His garden in Vaissac in the South of France is now a tourist attraction.

Gerard said: “It took a lot of patience and concentration, but it was worth it.”
