Those rooms are incredible - hard to believe they're miniature. I've bookmarked that site for future reference! Thankyou for the link!

Default The Thorpe Rooms
The Thorpe Rooms are spectecular . I have the book the Miniature Rooms I have had it a number of years and sat for about two weeks with a magnifying glass so that I could look at evertyhing in great detail.

There is actually a new book about the Thorpe Rooms being published on 27th February 2009
I searched Amazon and they will be selling it for around £20. Might be a good one to put on your birthday present list. I know I enjoyed reading how all the rooms came to be made.
