Hair and Feathers


Kia ora

In a corner of Demolition World you will find all kinds of birds, a donkey and a kunikuni pig.

There are chooks rolling in the dirt, doves chilling on the rooftops while peacocks fly over them and turkeys gobble away in a quiet space.

A kunikuni wanders around snorting here and there and sleeping wherever he can find a spot. The donkey wanders amongst them all, eating whatever he can.

A Sunny Dahlia


Kia ora

A sunny day and a sunny flower. This beautiful yellow dahlia brightens up the day at Demolition World in Invercargill. The colours of the sun, this flower looks stunning in its beauty.

Treasures of Yesteryear

Some rusty old bone shakers lined up in a stand against the hedge is an interesting, fun sight at Demolition World in Invercargill.

I remember having a bike like the one on the right as a kid and felt very embarrassed at riding an old lady's bike to school, mine was black.

Inside Outside


Kia ora

This was an interesting idea, I thought. A façade looking like a film set might look.

In front of this façade was a boat, a water wheel and a small wooden bridge in a stony setting, with an axle lying alongside attached to two large wagon wheels, as you can see in the image below, it all looked most interesting.

Behind was an old wagon going nowhere.

Light and Day



Kia ora

The beautiful old lights found at Demolition World looked great against the bright blue of the sky. A beautiful day to go out taking pix, unfortunately, the last time I was there to get some pix of other areas I'd not seen, the rain was persistent.

Beautiful Mauve

Against the old at Demolition World the new beautiful mauve flower looks stunning.

I plan to include a few images of Demolition World because I consider it an exciting, innovative experience.

A Place of Nostalgia



Kia ora

I recently popped into an interesting place where you might find demolition materials if you are looking to do some DIY work at your home.  The place was much more than a place to find second hand window frames and pieces of pipe etc, this was a trip down Memory Lane for me.

These girls feature in one of the shops in the village found at Demolition World in Invercargill. Clothes hang from their shoulders and the girls hang from racks to display the lovely old clothes.

Hope you like my choice of photographs to display here.
