“I was driving along the seafront and I saw it and thought, is it genuine? I’m not sure. But if it is, it will get mobbed”, said Nick Davenport, who lives in Hove.<\/p>\n

Local resident Kristina Miklos added: “I really love it, it’s a shame I didn’t see it being made as I was here all afternoon. <\/p>\n
