London King’s Cross railway station ✅

Yes, I did tick off London King’s Cross railway station, a long time ago! Way back in 30th November 2002 in fact. But like more others, I always head straight to underground and head into the centre of London. But not this time, for once I walked the other way and went to end of the platforms to get some photos…

Another great day in London!

That was another great day out in London, with my older brother Douglas. We did so much during, our mini day trip….

We did the following:-

  • London Transport Museum
  • British Museum
  • Science Museum
  • Natural History Museum

Was great doing both the London Transport Museum and the British Museum. Since I had never too them before.

The Science Museum and the Natural History Museum, I had been too before, but not for well over 10 years! So could not really, remember them at all.
