Welcome to Duplo! Thanks - if I had put the .com after "brickshelf" I'm
sure that would have worked better :-) Anyway. I'm pretty sure it is indeed
2770, although I don't have any of the furniture or other pieces except the
TV aerial! Too bad, the rest of it looks amazingly cool - domestic without
pervasive pinkness. I guess the farm pieces could have come from any number
of sets - I don't remember the colour of the windmill and it's now in the
bottom of the Pit, er, Duplo crate in the playroom. Much obliged, everyone.
Curiosity satisfied once again.
Hey - looking at the Playhouse subgroup of Duplo shows 2780, a remarkably
similar but different-coloured playhouse from 5 years later, and 2779 to
match: four walls, two roofs, a floor, and a TV aerial! Maybe 2770 also had
a corresponding "supplemental" set, which is what I have.
(Off I go to Brickshelf to look at catalogs from 1986.)
Bingo! 2760 is exactly it.

Say Suz, I think there are several pictures from this catalog that are
needed in the Guide.
Cheers, Heather
