Jan, Its great to know you better! I love your work. I made a Little House in 1990 too. You could take the roof off and look down into it. I no longer have it, but have always wanted to make another one. Maybe when the kids are grown I will be able to.
Your talent shows a true fan! Thank you for sharing!

Nice interview! I was impressed when I saw your scale models of LHOTP posted here...but it seems that in the Netherlands, they were impressed too, since you were in the newspapers showing them! Thumbsup

I think that LHOTP had a lot of fans in Europe. In France they loves the show. It reruns almost all the summers. I don't know if in the Netherlands is that way too, but I see that people remembers LHOTP pretty well. Smile
