Any way, I 've already mentioned this museum to my nephew. He has a long list of places to visit in London when he will be a visiting student.<br />Would have loved to see all those jewels.

My cousin owns a flat at the Barbican, it has the original kitchen and bathroom which is kind of cool (I hear many of the flats do). I am hoping, now that my husband is at home a bit, that I can make some time for a few day trips into London, I really miss going to exhibitions and seeing my friends, I feel inspired to find out what's on by your fab post, thank you :) BethxxBeth of The Linen Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17734590638565302388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6957837048465204452.post-46668115410162178822014-05-02T20:09:36.302+01:002014-05-02T20:09:36.302+01:00Such a wonderful day out with your dear mum, Jane ...Such a wonderful day out with your dear mum, Jane and a fascinating story of the lost jewels...x<br />It's lovely to see the Biba items too...so iconic!<br />Hope you have a wonderful weekend!<br />Susan x ♥ Mary Janes TEAROOMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05773609140590006438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6957837048465204452.post-61317537106421948292014-05-02T02:34:31.400+01:002014-05-02T02:34:31.400+01:00Great pictures (I especially like the Major coach)...Great pictures (I especially like the Major coach) and fabulous card!

And that story of those beauties being hidden by someone for that long time and now they're out again to us to see - fascinating!

Love the hidden treasure story and seeing the old and new buildings mixed together in London. So wonderful you could see all this with your mum. I don't know Biba's but I do know Woolworth's! Thanks Jane for sharing all this history with us.

Both my children were born in the Isle of Thanet, Kent: we lived in Minster just outside of Canterbury and they were born in Margate, I even got married in Ramsgate. I have learnt something new today. I had heard about the Cheapside Hoard, shame you couldn't take photos I was looking forward to those, but amazing pictures from the flier nonetheless.
