V&A Museum - Love the idea of designer tours…


The V&A welcomes the London Design Festival a nine day festival that celebrates London as the creative capital of the world.
Love the idea of designer tours… you pick up a map at a museum entrance and use it to follow a tour created by a chosen personality and taking in their favourite objects. A great way to explore and see the museum in a new light – I shall be going and I will report back with my finds…

Breathtaking Photographs Appearing in Brighton

What a lovely surprise when taking a wonder along Brighton seafront when we came across giraffe’s, penguins and swimming elephants. I could only describe the photographs as magical, capturing a glimpse of life through a camera in seconds, which might have taken months of patience and persistence by the photographer. We salute you, as these images are truly stunning and creative.



The touring Natural History Museum shop is in the middle of the billboards near the pier and well worth a visit. I was lucky enough to be given the Wild Planet book that day as a birthday gift so we looked through the book on the way home from Brighton; a perfect ending was seeing the Pelican looking at me while I looked at him.
