Bit of a strange response from my V-bomber obsessed 7 year old earlier this evening when I suggested we visit an air museum tomorrow that has a Victor on display:


"Is it the museum with the bouncing bomb, daddy?"


"Yes. And they've got something else there that you'll like - something from the Cold War."


"Is it Dr Strangelove's wheelchair?"


Then my four year old spent ten minutes shouting "Mein fuhrer! I can walk!" God knows what the neighbours must think.

Mark.

They have a special exhibition on at York railway museum on the first world war.

Think it starts this weekend.

Fly on the wall style documentary must be hilarious with you and your family mark. :lol:

Cheers Neil - I was wondering what to do with them this weekend and that sounds perfect!

Oh yes.


I took the boys to Duxford last year on our way back from a week in Suffolk. My eldest (then 6) was fascinated by the land warfare exhibit, and particularly by a soldier in full face paint hiding in the jungle. He studied it closely for a few minutes, then solemnly turned to the handful of OAPs behind us and said "Never go full retard."


I tell you, if the floor could have opened and swallowed me up... :lol:

Clearly runs in the family Mark. :-)


Have you taken them to Bentwaters Cold War exhibition? You can run them round Rendlesham forest looking for aliens to knacker them out too.

Mark.

Take them across to the dark side and visit the war museum in Manchester.

Very good.

They have an interactive floor where the kids have to stamp on rats. As in the 1st world war trenches.


Took mine a few year back and they still mention the rats...
