    This is an inspirational and sensory journey of discovery not to be missed!

    What do you mean by "close"?
    50 yards?
    200 miles (me, just I think).
    4 parsecs?

    Drive straight down the motorway - about 2.5 hours.
    And then driving in through London - about 5 hours.
    But I have no car...

    About 200-250 miles for me, but I'm sure we've got to have someone closer to the Science Museum than that.

    Done that...

    Couldn't do that.
    I don't always see things in terms of black and white

    Time spent under wheels of a number 12 bus. Priceless.

    That is so cool! Mrs. Fraggle is the world's biggest Wallace and Gromit fan! (Although "Curse of the Were-Rabbit" was a little underwhelming, not as good as "The Wrong Trousers.") We gotta find a way to get to England this year!

    I'll be down in London soonish, might swerve by, as it's free to get in, it's rude not to.

    It's worth a visit, but the exhibitions are always extra, quite a lot extra if there's a few of you and you visit more than one.

    I might be in London next month, still working out the logistics. If I have an opportunity, I'll take a dekko.

    Looks interesting
