Town is too quiet to be pre xmas.. theres no sport on and theres no busy churches.. so no sat or Sunday... its early afternoon also.
well, for one: seems fair to assume all imagery was taken on the same day; I'd be surprised if here at Tongariro St was taken separately to Chartwell Square just down the road. so, for two: it's definitely quiet, but there's a truck backing into home here (48), which only happened on (a) Sun 14/12 around 5pm or (b) Wed 17/12 sometime in the pm. (unless my mail folder is lying to me) for three: the shops are -far- too quiet for a Sunday before Christmas, but busy enough for late weekday pm to be plausible. (Thursday parking around the various centres would've been *chocka*, probably from 3pm.) for four: my car's not at home, which rules out 14/12. I think I see it in Collingwood St though, which boosts the odds of 17/12. definitely before 5pm. I remember the parking in Collingwood St/Ruakiwi Rd being light that week, but the few cars that are there makes it much more likely to be later in the day than earlier. for five: cars are parked on the Bryce St clearway, so before 4:30. so, yeah: close enough to Christmas that the general bustle in town has slowed down, but not so close that last-minute weekday panic buying has started. ain't putting money on it, but it seems pursuasive to me! butting
