It's quite strange, isn't it, that the same building can be used as both a School and a Summer house - you'd think the difference in size required would be quite profound. |

I think the music teacher Herr H...? had some of the school buildings knocked down |

why EBD had to include that as a story-line beats me. To show how rich and lavish the Maynards are? IIRC they add a sitting room for the girls and a workshop for the boys, as well as extra bedrooms etc. |

Die Blumen was not a very large house and when the two Maynard boys as well as the three Richardsons were added to the party, they were fairly full. Len had suggested that Ruey should share her room and her mother agreed. Con and Margot had another. A third was dedicated to the babies and Rösli; and Roddy had been put into the room Stephen and Charles had. A slip had been handed over to Roger and by that time, most of the bedrooms the Maynards had furnished the year before, were well-filled. |

And within a few years, as the older Maynards and Richardsons grow up and leave school, they're not likely all to be there at the same time anyway. Unless Joey was planning ahead for the quads. |
