I f***ing love the Natural History Museum. I have always thought Tollund Man was pretty amazing, you can even see the whiskers on his face. I love anything that connects us to our European history. I also visited this amazing place in Sicily called the catacombs.......it’s full of almost perfectly preserved dead people ! They are all over the show dressed in the same clothes they were brought in with on the day they died and it’s a massive cross section of people from ordinary every day workers to admirals & bishops. There is one particular corpse of a child around 3 and she looks like she is just asleep she is that well preserved. Most of the corpses are over 100 years old and many much, much older. It sounds a bit morbid but it’s actually a fascinating place. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Natural History museum in Tring, Herts is also good, worth a look if your passing through, it's only small, so you can see it all fairly quickly. There's a good dog section with some famous dogs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's such a grand entrance. With the landings and the 360 degree 1st floor landing there are so many angles to view the blue whale. One day I'd like to attend a formal lecture and evening 'do' there. It's a grand place and I'd like to experience a truly grand event. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be very surprised if nothing had changed significantly in a decade. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
