I’m always hearing about the general intellectual meltdown in society these days, so I was wondering how often your well-informed, ice-cream-nostalgic readership manage to go to museums.

I have the pleasure of taking my two nephews (aged 2 and 6) to the Natural History Museum this Saturday and am completely stumped as to what to do with them food-wise. All the restaurants I’ve been to are good for taking someone on a date, but not really that family oriented. Any suggestions?

I have not been here very long but I like London. But I cannot believe there is no computer museum! Okay, there is the Science museum in Knightsbridge but that is all. Are there no other places to see the great history of computers?

usual apologies if it has been posted before…. ...but this is great! British Library (Euston Rd. near Kings X) It’s an exhibition of maps of London going back to the earliest through to present day. Absolutely fascinating – particularly if you happen to live or work in the more central ar...

Southwark Council is planning to close the Livesey Museum tomorrow, 29 Feb, only nine days after voting to do so. I don’t live in the area so I only found out today, but this is really cultural vandalism of the worst kind. The place has consistantly come up with engaging, child-friendly exhibitions for years o...
