So I have always read a lot, and quite fancied the Narnia/ Famous Five/ Secret Seven/ Nancy Drew style books as a kid (ok, still do). As a result I have always wanted a secret garden/ secret passages/ hidden room etc in my house. Then tonight I came across a fabulous blog post (http://www.thedailysmoke.co.za/smokes/article477.asp) by some dude in Uitenhage who put into words what I always wanted, AND he found a company (http://www.hiddenpassageway.com/) in the States that does this kind of thing. A dream come true. My question is this: Does anyone else think about this kind of thing or am I alone out in the cold on this one? If you do, have you found a reputable company in SA that does it? I heard a snippet of JCW on 702 one day talking to a guy who builds men and women's "dens" but I don't recall them as being secret or hidden. He basically just turned the garage into a Harlet Davidson Museum.
Also, the dude in the blog's bio makes me think he might even be a Geek :) Only I can't think of anyone called Luke (other than Skywalker).

It's called a man-cave. It contains all things manly and awesome. Also, the lesser-spotted husband seeks refuge here in between domestic chores. :p
EDIT: Holy Claudia Rapolla! Those hidden doors are ossum! :panic:

Oy!!! :D
I would seriously luuuurve to have a secret basement under the house - but it must be BIIIG and have a fireplace with a candlestick you twist just 'so' or a specific book that must be pulled back to reveal the hidden passageways..
