think so. there's some special heritage thing on as well that means we can see stuff that's not normally on display. that'll probs be WMDs and the like

Possibly because the bird loves all that geeky learny museumy stuff. (I'm not adverse to it either)
Only thing is we'll be arriving later on the Friday evening and leaving on the Sunday.
Might go along and have a looksee on the Saturday morning

We took Reece there when we went to meet Rooky, very impressive. The Elephant armour floor is fantastic.

Warning, I seem to remember going here when I was young, like 11 or 12, and thinking it was shit! But then again I guess that's inevitable, maybe for you fogies it'll be okay

I will sacrifice the trip to the armouries in order to save everyone's seats in the bar. Selfless, me.

Leeds Armouries is the one of the best museums I've ever been to.
When I was working in Wakefield I paid for a year's ticket for the place. saw genuine jousting, falconry & the guys who did the sword fighting demonstrations should be on the telly - fantastic.
There's no way I'm not going to the Armouries.
