Dr Who In Reikorangi !

You need to believe me on this one.

On the far side of the overflow water-tank on the street-side boundary fence, I heard a strange noise – whirr, whirr, whirr, accompanied by a bright blue flashing light…

Who1
(Above): Lo and behold. There it stood, the TARDIS. Bennie smells the ground intently, obviously identifying the footsteps of Dr Who, as he alighted from his craft. Ooo, this is so exciting! I would give anything to take a ride in it, but I will have to get the Doctor to do the navigation, otherwise I am likely to remain lost in space and time forever. Hmm.. and forever is quite long.

Who2
(Above): Inside the TARDIS, which, they told me, is much larger on the inside than on the outside, but our minds simply cannot get around that concept. This time round, it is disguised as a.. would you believe it, a toilet and urinal…This Doctor is so resourceful.. what next will he think of, to protect his TARDIS from unwanted prying eyes… and inquisitive scientists.

I simply cannot wait to tell my fellow Who-ians. I’ll bet they will never believe me, or simply dismiss my story, by stating the obvious: It’s only a porta-loo! These non-believers!

Besides the TARDIS portaloo, Builder John arrived on time with his three assistants to do the preparatory work before the earthworks can commence tomorrow Thursday 19th. The workers were introduced, but (blush) I cannot remember their names – I will call them Barry, Harry and Larry. Their first job was to dig up obstructing paving slabs and stack them out of harm’s way  for possible use as lawn edging around the to-be-refurbished snake flowerbed.

(Above): Barry, Harry and Larry at work, removing obstructing paving slabs and setting out the site, in preparation of the earthworks, hopefully to-morrow

Who4
(Above and below): With the lengthening of the shadows on this sunny afternoon, it’s home-time for the workers, having completed all the levels and boundary lines marked out with luminescent spray paint, ready for a 7:30am start to-morrow by Bryce O’Sullivan (see their Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Bryce-OSullivan-Contracting-LTD/581566401875486 ). The bedroom/ sitting room is on the left, and on the right is the dressing room, bathroom and laundry, closest to the camera. Both photos were taken from Tyler’s upstairs bedroom window.
