There once were two Bricks...
Do you remember? When I was a kid, there were bricks, a sort of green board to put them on, windows, doors and parts for the roof. And what you did was to build houses, small ones, big ones, but still it was houses.
I liked to play with Lego, because with it I could create things. Our family lived in an apartment, and when I was playing with Lego I was dreaming off building a big house for the whole family,
Unfortunately one of my brothers who's five years older than me, hated it when I played with "his things". He snatched the bricks off me. At least he let me watch him. Only when playing with Lego had got too simple for him he passed his lego bricks over to me.
That was in the 60ies of the 20th century. A lot has changed since that time - and Lego did, too.
I am fascinated by the variety of things you can do with Lego today, and I want to show you some of that.

Lego - it is not only the truck, it is a whole world!
Playing Bowls
Lego has created a real world of its own, with people. If anybody would have told me in the 1965 that you could play bowls with Lego, I would have thought it absolutely out of question.

- Fun! Yes, when I was a kid we had "Mini Bricks" - they were like Legos but they were all brown and small. We just built houses with them too, but we enjoyed it!
