Inside the modern recreation of the Globe Theatre is a small exhibition area! The ticket can also include a tour of the theatre – unfortunately I did not time my visit well enough for that. Shakespeare’s Globe Exhibition & Tour The original Globe Theatre is long gone (the first one actually burned down and was… Read More All the World’s a Stage
One of the many odd things about London is the lack of tube stations/ trains on the south side of the Thames. Instead, we have to take trains and buses. In the tube you maybe have to wait 5 minutes for a train to arrive whereas the trains in South London come much less often… Read More Pictures Galleries for the People
This blog’s lovely namesake is the famous and massive department store- Liberty of London! It is famous for bringing in ‘Oriental’ designs to London’s elite. They are known for their home goods, fabrics, scarves and clothing. I found out they were the subject of a museum exhibit so I HAD to go! Fashion… Read More Liberty of London
More Reading Week adventures! Freud Museum London As you would expect, this museum is dedicated to the father of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud! It was his home for the last year or so of his life.

Holiday adventure time! As many museums were closed over between the 24th-26th I’m a little behind. Really inconvenient guys. Don’t they know I NEED to blog about them? Honestly. We ended up heading out to Greenwich, the home of the Prime Meridian (hear of Greenwich mean time? THAT Greenwich) and where the final battle… Read More Pepys, Greenwich & Maritimes

Day 3 in Edinburgh will be only one post. I can hear your relief from here. Same. Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art 1 & 2 I only went to the Modern Art Museum but it was so big it’s actually in two different mansions across the street from each other. So really it was… Read More Modern Art, School Work and Splashes
This post is going to cram three museums into one post. I do apologise but that’s how it’s going to be. This is my blog and I am still sick. Also I actually got drenched by a car making a turn today. I really had thought that only occurs in movies. My trowsers disagree. … Read More John Knox, Tollbooths & Huntly House
