The travels of Brammers, part 4a

[blamebrampton]

The new Mediaeval galleries at the Victoria and Albert have broken my brain. I didn't even make it to the Renaissance. After three hours I was only 1/4 of the way through and had artefact overload. It is brilliant and beautifully presented and with SO MANY THINGS, and then wonderful things to actually DO for school children. I may have to write a nice letter to the curators. Just ... mindblowing ... Photos later, after I have made my way to Brixton. If not heard from again, the preceding sentence should explain my fate.

Oh, and yes, this does mean that I failed to hang out with Darwin today. Tomorrow! Or possibly Thursday ...

I haven't seen the V&A since the renovations. Lucky Brammers! I'm enjoying your travels vicariously.

IT IS BRILL, Noe! You will love them when you see them, between this and the Ashmolean, I have been really spoiled. The V&A transition to the new space is more successful, though of course both have the British version of finished ;-)
