G stood. What a hero!
Jessie "interacting" in the Natural History Museum.
Four & a half million years ago you could have ridden one of these - a rotund sort of tortoise.
A load of big birds (sorry P)
A shiny pate on the way in.
J pole-dancing on the tube (P was busy with T)
It was hard work.
A journey through the Earth.
A quick trip to BHX to check arrivals.A birthday treat from the family - a trip to London to the Natural History Museum - the best museum in the world!
G bought me a rail pass then we travelled to South Kensington with P, J & T.
We were met by B, E, T & KP at Carluccio's, where we had a fantastic lunch, then on to the museum.
After a big adventure in a good number of halls we settled for a cup of tea at Pret a manger.
The grandchildren were all great & we had a lovely day. Thanks to everyone involved.
When we arrived back in Birmingham I went to the Airport to collect W, MK, J & DK, then home for fish & chips & an early night.

T's favourite part was the escalator into the earth ('but it wasn't the real earth mummy') so we are relieved to hear that the best bit wasn't the lift. Katie's favourite part was the telephones. We have had lots of questions about earthquakes and antelopes, and of course about the Picadilly line. My favourite part, apart from the blue whale which just amazed me, was the very welcome cup of tea in Pret. I think I am secretly older than everyone!

We had a lovely weekend thanks.

E, just "post-dated"
Perhaps T should be a tube train driver.
A great weekend all round.
