carried buildings around in his head, not real buildings just un-sketched plans, you understand? He had always wanted to build a replica of the town where he was born not from mortar or bricks but from spaghetti and matches and lollypop sticks. He wanted to build the fire station and a church and the supermarket where he would make tiny shopping trolleys and scatter them over the make believe car-park where tiny people would be carrying on with their daily chores holding tiny bags and thinking big thoughts He wanted there to be a spacious park for imaginary children to enjoy wholesome picnics. And ponds where geese, ducks and swans would glide on the surface near broccoli sized trees. The town in his head would be better then the town in which he walked but he had one big problem he spend hours wondering how he could make the sun.
