There could be a tunnel
“It would be so cool if there was a tunnel from here to Kontula metro station. You could just slip into it, whoosh!”
“We could make a pit here by the den and dig a tunnel towards that direction.”
“Seriously, you know nothing about the civil infrastructure going under that pavement. I bet you’ll hit a thousand wolt power cable.”
“No, we won’t hit those.”
“The condominium would probably think high of you when they heard that you have been carrying excavations here.”
“But that would be kind of a natural activity.”
“Still.”
“What if there were tunnels from here to everyone’s rooms! I wonder what our parents would say when they noticed. We would have a kind of a tunnel network and we could hang out there together, below ground.”
“Remember then to support those tunnels of yours.”
“Maybe, at some point.”
“So, it is action first, thinking last.”
“Yes!”
