Favorite LEGO toys/themes: space (ruimtevaart) castle (riddertjes) town/trains (miniland) adventurers star-wars

My fascination with LEGO began... when I was 3 years old (although I actually owned Lego sets before I was born...nice one mum and dad!).

I once built... a 9ft long Japanese WW2 aircraftcarrier with working elevators and aeroplanes.

Someday I will build... a warship on minifig scale with my bro Dirk.

LEGO is great because... you're free to use your imagination to create anything you can think of.

LEGO fans are great because... they make sure Lego keeps making Lego.


My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: Transformers, Zoids, GI Joe, Hot Wheels

My favorite Hobbies & Interests: my girlfriend and the little man, music, sports, astronomy, movies

My favorite Foods: Italian, Indian, Chinese, Turkish, my girls Chicken Siam, Salad and Spaghetti and chocolate

My favorite Movies & TV: Movies; Tora Tora Tora, Independence Day, Star Wars, The fast and the Furious, X-men, Transformers, Apollo 13, t.v.; sports- and science-programmes, some sitcoms, topical news shows, 80's cartoons

My favorite Artists: Andy Warholl, Roy Lichtenstein

My favorite Music: Chris Rea, Del Amitri, INXS, Duran Duran, Midnight Oil, Tears for fears, Idlewild, U2, Dire Straights/Mark Knopfler, Idlewild, Snow Patrol, 70's and 80's pop

My favorite Pets & Animals: all animals (except for rats) but above all; Sherman (from Sherman's Lagoon)


Words which best describe me: marching to the beat of a different drummer ;-)


I love it when... it's night... and when it's raining... or snowing... or when it's a nice and lazy sunny Sunday afternoon. Though being up 6000 + feet with my snowboard in the Austrian Alps in winter is very nice too... when there are new Space or Star Wars sets, but most of all, I love to spend a lazy Sunday morning in bed in the arms of my girl...

I hate it when... it's really early in the morning, or Monday. Futhermore I can't stand people who lie or hurt someone/something innocent. And I truly dislike people who misuse their authoroty.

I can't seem to get enough... time with my girl and wee laddy.... and time to do all the things I wanna be doing...

I always seem to have enough... things to do, that I don't want to be doing.

I hope I always... have my eyesight, my girl's and my wee lad's love. And my family and friends.

I wish I could... retire to Northern Scotland with my girl and our little boy and our dog and last but not least my bro.

I could never... hurt the innocent or stand idlely by while they are being hurt.

I hope I never... have to go to war again.

I wish I hadn't... been to war. And I wish I hadn't lied and misbehaved so much when I was a kid.


In my craziest moments... I thought I was mad - clearly I'm fine, it's most of the world that's gone mental.

Believe it or not... but I'm actually real happy now.....

If I were super-human... the world would be a lot less f*cked up!


More & Less:
  • more time with my girl, less stress
  • more honesty, less ego-maniacs and thus war
  • more Lego Space (though not this Mars Mission cr*p - Space Police is nice though), less a lot less Borsato (you do not want to know... trust me)

Rules I try to live by:
  1. be true to yourself
  2. try to help if and when you can
  3. take care of your loved ones and yourself
