"Ok - It was just me. I just remade the house, much quicker this time. Obviously got my quantities wrong last time - this time it has worked perfectly. Sorry I doubted you! "

"Maybe its just me, but I had a few problems with this to say the least! I'm going to try it again, but his time I will leave the gingerbread to completely hard in an airtight box before trying to assemble it as the last one was just too soft and it all collapsed on me. I think that the quantities are too much - I had a lot of waste, both dough and icing. Also, there is no mention in the recipe that you need to leave the dough at least an hour before it is able to be used. The timing of one hour and 12 minutes is optimistic! Apart from that its fine! I used chocolate buttons on the roof instead of almonds."
