And because I've been looking around I knew it was a really good price he was offering.
Now I just have to wait for it to be built. Should be able to pick it up early next week.

That sounds great. Who knows what other extras you might have been offered if you had more time!

Ooh! Tardis in the next street!! Suppose you are keeping a lookout for The Doctor. :))

Definitely keeping a lookout for the Doctor! Nos 4 or 9 would do nicely thank you!
