Terracotta army - there are horses there

[madmav]

I know this slightly off-tangent for forum, but if you get the chance, do go and see terracotta army at British Museum. I've just been, it was strangely moving to see the figures in real life. I don't normally feel a lot when viewing ancient museum-y things.

And tragically spent a long time looking at the horses, admiring their wonderful feet and legs. Well they were based on real-life animals (and humans),so it wasn't totally sad, was it?

Fantastic stuff do you know how long they'll be there? Next time I'm in london I make a point of skivving to go and see them

I keep thinking I must go and see that exhibition, it sounds amazing. The other thing I want to see is 'War Horse', I can't remember which theatre it's on at, but the reviews are really good. Oh, and I'd love to see the Tutenkhamen exhibition too.

I managed to get tickets in Feb, wasn't easy to get 3 for one time. They do release 500 first thing each morning so if you get there early you could be lucky.

War Horse is utterly incredible - I'd go every night if I had the choice.
It's playing at the National Theatre, and you will need to book ages in advance as they are crammed right up, though I think they are adding new dates
