The Museum of London
The Museum of London was open late on Thursday, as it is each first Thursday of every month. On this occasion there was a medieval theme. This often overlooked museum is always worth a visit, although for the near future the entire ground floor is being refurbished. We were treated to a fascinating tour and talk by the curator, and I learned that the first recorded written name from the London area is from around 600 AD, and was "Tatbert", scratched on a bone. I wonder if he had to work in a cubicle. Note the medieval security pass.

Thanks to you, Ham, I visited the Museum of London and it was well worth the visit. A chunk of it was under construction but it's still a very interesting place.
Wonderful image in both composition and content. I can almost hear the music. And I can certainly feel that cold hard stare.
Is that a slim Victoria Wood, seated? Look again.
