		<description>Hey, the reflections and flare in the picture could be thought to be ghosts.  Someone better snap up the house before people find out there are ghosts in there.</description>

		<description>Robert Carnegie -- you could do the trompe-l&#039;oeil but if you&#039;re going to go to that much trouble --- and you have the talent --- why not paint the TARDIS so it incorpoates a door? That way the room behind the door could be done up as the TARDIS interior.</description>

		<description>Re backyard TARDIS and fake shed, I&#039;m thinking about that kid who was abducted and kept as a sex slave all those years... the yard was bigger on the inside than it looked...

More optimistically, is it possible to paint a trompe-l&#039;oeil TARDIS in a corner of a room so that it looks cool but doesn&#039;t take up space?

Or is it better to go with a Stargate?  With some kind of disco light carefully aimed at it...

Or... a big plasma TV is just crying out to have a starship bridge built around it.  

Maybe have your bedroom done like Carl Sagan&#039;s command bridge in _Cosmos_.</description>

		<description>@Ken &quot;A TARDIS and universal health care for $236K (CDN)? Such a deal!&quot;

At the rate the loonie is climbing against the greenback, that won&#039;t be such a good price.</description>

		<description>I&#039;d like to build a TARDIS-shaped shed in my back yard.  It would be nestled up against a tall L-shaped hedge, but then I&#039;d cut away the portion of the hedge hidden behind the &quot;shed&quot; and build the entire inside of the TARDIS control room inside the hedge.  So you&#039;d see just a blue box and some shrubbery, but when you opened the door it would really look like it was bigger on the inside.  That would be fun...</description>

		<description>As some may know here, I&#039;m more of a Battlestar man, but, I must say, I&#039;d grab this house in a nano second!  Although I wonder if the sale price included the Dalek and TARDIS?!</description>
