    “Blimey, Leo, that reminds me about The Door” remarked Bea, who had got to the part about the door in the potting shed in T’Eggy Gets A Good Rogering.

    “I don’t know how you can read that trash, Bea, really I don’t” said Leonora, with a sniff.

    “Never mind that, what about The Door? WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT THE DOOR?”

    “And now there’s that cycle of energy that goes into the other realms and comes full circle, cascading down like watermelons crashing down from a fountain back into this reality, and then it cycles back up into the other dimensions, and then back down, creating an endless loop – an endless loop of watermelons , consciousness and expansion, New Energy, creativity, letting go of the obstacles and the watermelons , truly being in life.”

    Becky was reading aloud from House of The Watermelon, by Toby St.Germaine .

    “The next step, as we enter this House of The Watermelon, the next step is to take a drink of watermelon juice. There’s plenty of watermelons. You don’t even need a glass up here. Just drink of the watermelons….”

    “Becky, why is that book called The House of The Watermelon?” Dory asked. “I haven’t heard a single mention of watermelons all the way through it.”

      The interior of the Fly-boat was a bit like a Tardis, in that it was very much bigger on the inside than it appeared from the outside, and quite a different shape, too. While the exterior of the fly-boat resembled a cross between a duck and a bee, the interior was circular. There was a high point in the centre of the ceiling, and richly embroidered tapestries draping down to the floor in sumptuous folds, looking for all the world like a yurt.

      Yukailli Airlines has a decidedly exotic and oriental air, Dory thought as she perused the in flight magazine, which was written in a charming but indecipherable script resembling the Voynich Papers.

      “This is your captain speaking” a disembodied voice boomed. “Welcome aboard! My name is Ignoratio Elenchi, and I trust that you will have a most enjoyable flight with Yukailli AirBoats. There will be no obligation to fasten your seatbelts and you may smoke all through the flight. Our cabin crew will be preparing Vedic Stew over an open fire in the central area of the craft at 11:11. For your in-flight entertainment, up on the open air flight deck there will be a continuous light show by Aurora Borealis. If you want us to stop the flyboat at any point to take snapshots” continued Ignoratio, “Please don’t hesitate to ask.”

        Dory finished the puzzle, yawned and glanced at her watch. There was no sign of the flight to Long Pong leaving any time soon, so she made her flightbag into a pillow and settled herself along the plastic seating for a nap.

        She dreamed first of her grandparents in their old house in Slurbridge. The house was the same, but her grandparents, Florence and Samuel, were much younger than she had ever known them during her lifetime. They were preparing for guests, and Florence was rearranging the bedding in the upstairs bedrooms. Apparently one more guest was expected than previously arranged, and she had squeezed in a single camp bed next to a double bed. Dory had an idea the camp bed was for Dan’s niece, Aurelia. Funny that, as Florence and Samuel had never known Aurelia ~ or Dan for that matter.

        The dream landscape changed then to an island. The “Others” were coming and she and her friends had to hide. “Let’s hide in the pyramid” one of them had said, but Dory replied “No, we must hide somewhere less obvious, until we know what the “Others” are like.” They weren’t afraid, but they were taking precautions. Someone had been looking after the dogs and cats, but when Dory went to check on them, they had been ‘kept safe’ in a freezer. As Dory opened the door, a half frozen black cat emerged and ran off. “I reckon she’s better off taking her chances out there than in the freezer!” said Dory. At the bottom of the freezer were some frozen parts of Tom, Captain Bone. There was no sign of the others, but strangely, Dory wasn’t worried.

        Next to the freezer was a cupboard, and Dory grabbed a handful of magnetic fridge letters, thinking that they would come in handy as clues while they were hiding from the “Others”.

        “Yukailli Airlines direct flight leaving for Tikfijikoo Island at Gate 57 and three quarters” the bag lady prodded Dory, amidst a shower of electric blue sparks. “Wake up!”

          “What a shame we didn’t get the 999th comment on the 9th of the 9th month”, Becky remarked to nobody in particular. “Still, never mind, at least I got the 1000th.”

            Dory was glad she’d brought her puzzle book with her to the airport. The stopover at Heathrow was turning out to be much longer than anticipated. Further delays on all flights to Long Pong had just been announced, and Dory sighed as she fished in her capacious flight bag for a pen.

            “Pffftt” said Bea. “Lost the bloody connection again.” She turned on the TV instead. She had been researching on the internet the three names that she had woken up mumbling ~ Gabor, Sindy and Swinde ~ and had just found something promising about interdimensional federations when the line went dead. Actually, the three names and the woman behind the desk in her dream had reminded her a bit of Oversoul 7.

            “Honestly, this bloody country! It’s like the dark ages” she muttered under her breath.

            Bea flicked through the news channels: sports on one, that boring election on another, more hurricanes on another channel……Bea paused her surfing when she saw the watermelon on a documentary channel. There was a pile of watermelons, and the narrator was explaining how the chimpanzees were sharing the watermelons with each other.

            Well what a coincidence! Bea thought, that’s a watermelon AND an ape sync. It must be a clue. HHmmm, sharing the watermelons…..

            And just think, if the line hadn’t gone dead at that very moment, that precise moment, I wouldn’t have turned on the TV, and I wouldn’t have seen the apes and the watermelons.

            Bea was momentarily speechless as she contemplated the perfect timing of everything. She was mesmerized and awestruck at the sheer vast intricacy of it all. Whoever is planning and organizing this incredible reality play I find myself in is nothing short of a genius, she thought, and went to wake up Leonora so that she could share the marvellous moment of revelation with her.

            “Oh for god’s sake Bea, you woke me bloody up to tell me that? Bugger off you rude tart” Leo replied crossly when Bea woke her and told her all about the astonishing coincidence. “Things like that are happening all the bloody time, or haven’t you noticed? That’s just Everyday Magic, for Flove’s sake, now piss off and let me get some sleep”

            But Bea had a feeling that this was much more than just Everyday Magic. This felt like something else, something incomprehensibly huge and wonderful. Not that Everyday Magic isn’t incomprehensibly huge and wonderful too, she reminded herself.

            Maybe is WAS “just” Everyday Magic after all….

              The Chief Minister of the Oddlings sat behind her desk, smiling at her new protege.

              “Well then, T57, you’re ready to start. Who have you been assigned to?” she asked.

              “Gabor, Sindy and Swinde” replied T57 promptly. She wasn’t quite sure who these characters were, but the names popped into her head strongly at that moment, and if she’d learned anything at the Ministry, it was to trust whatever popped into her head.

              “Gabor, Sindy and Swinde!” exclaimed the Chief Minister. “Why, they’re mine!”. She rummaged through the files on her desk. T57 assigned to three from her own batch! This was going to be interesting!

                “George laughed pleasantly and said, But of course, I understand! Just be remembering, he added with a twinkle, that I am always available. And I have the ‘whole book’ in my carpet bag.

                “The Whole Book in his bag, eh” said Becky, thinking that it sounded very meaningful and profound, although she couldn’t quite put her finger on it. Well, it was late.

                “Sanso didn’t really have a plan at that point, so he just started walking, walking along the cave tunnels, trusting that he would find another portal/cave entrance soon to another adventure.

                Such was his trust and superb state of allowing,that no sooner had he thought of finding a portal and a new adventure, as he rounded the very next corner, a blaze of sunshine streamed into the cave and a gust of hot desert wind.”

                Becky had to admit there were some gems in amongst all these bloopers.

                “Such was his trust and superb state of allowing, that no sooner had he thought of finding a portal and a new adventure, as he rounded the very next corner….”

                  Q: Okay. What happens to things we create, like with
                  characters? Are they merely thought-forms, being extensions of
                  ourselves? Or do they … CAN they move on and become more?

                  ELIAS: This is dependent upon your choices and how you are
                  manipulating energy.

                  Now; in this, let us view what you in physical focus term to be
                  artistic expressions, in the area of musical composition and of
                  painting expressions. These are two obvious examples within your
                  physical creations that you may view certain qualities of the
                  expressions.

                  Now; in this, some expressions, within either musical compositions
                  or expressions of illustrations or paintings, may appear to be
                  merely an expression of the individual and hold the energy signature
                  of that individual, but they appear or seem to not extend any
                  farther, so to speak; this is figuratively speaking.

                  In other terms, you may encounter other types of musical
                  compositions or illustrated or painted compositions, and they appear
                  quite differently. They appear not merely to hold the energy
                  signature of the individual that has created them, but they also
                  seem to hold an energy of their own, as if they have been created
                  into an entity of their own.

                  Now; the reason that you connect with this recognition of these
                  types of expressions is that the composition does hold the energy
                  signature of the individual that has created it, but what it also
                  may hold is an aspect of that individual focus which has been
                  allowed to be projected outwardly and has been allowed to continue
                  independently of the focus.

                  This is a similar action to fragmentation, but in very physical,
                  figurative terms, a much, much smaller scale.

                  This would be likened to any individual, any focus, any essence
                  projecting an aspect of itself into any other element within its
                  physical creation – a creature, a plant, a rock. It matters not. You
                  hold the ability within essence to be projecting an aspect of
                  essence or of a particular focus into any of these elements to be
                  experiencing the creations of that element of your reality, such as
                  a creature or any vegetation, an ocean, a mountain, a rock. It
                  matters not.

                  In similar manner, you may project an aspect of yourself into one of
                  your creations or all of your creations or several of your
                  creations, and in this, not merely you shall recognize that this
                  creation appears to take on, so to speak, a life of its own, in your
                  terms, but other individuals shall recognize this quality also, for
                  you have allowed yourself to project an aspect of yourself into your
                  physical creation, therefore breathing into it its own
                  manifestation, allowing it to be continuing within its own element,
                  so to speak, within its own right, in a manner of speaking. Are you
                  understanding?

                  Therefore, this be your choice of how you shall be creating
                  within your creativity and what you shall project within it. Appear
                  it not strange to you that certain individuals may be deemed as
                  great masters and they shall be revered for their creations and
                  their creations shall be enduring throughout your linear physical
                  time, and other individuals may be creating and their expressions of
                  creativity do not hold this quality? This is the reason…”

                  “Nice cuppa, Norm, what kind is it? Doesn’t taste like Typhoo” asked Sue.

                  “Oh, it’s a herbal one I think, let me see” said Norm, rummaging in the bin for the wrapper. “Never seem to get a cup of ordinary tea these days, it’s all herbal stuff. Here it is: Siberian Watermelon and Mushroom”.

                  “Tastes quite nice” replied Sue, holding her cup out for a refill.

                    “Watermelon produces an effect similar to that of Viagra, researchers say. A slice of juicy watermelon contains citrulline that can trigger the production of a substance that relaxes the body’s blood vessels. A similar effect is produced when a man takes a Viagra pill.”

                    “Well, that might explain a few things” thought Becky.

                    “However, the vegetable is not so organ-specific as Viagra…..”

                    “Mad bunch of nutters, this lot, eh?” Norm smiled ruefully.

                    “I should say so!” replied Sue. “Are all movie people as wacky as this?”

                    It was Sue Flay’s first venture into movies, although she was already famous as the singer with the Ova Tones, the popular all girl band.

                    “No, they’re not” replied Norm. “Frankly, no, they are not this mad usually. This is a decidedly odd bunch, if you ask me”.

                    “Oooh” said Sue, momentarily speechless. “Hhmmmm”.
