Let’s go to the V&A during Friday evening late opening hours and look at two different displays: the Burberry trenchcoat display, and the Freddie Mercury trail across the museum that’s called: Splendid Things. I feel both sound very intriguing! These are free to see but I need to charge an attendance fee of £3 to go towards the Meetup organiser’s fee that I am getting charged. I didn’t do so well this half year, hoping to catch up over the next six months if you think of what we talked about. More information here: Burberry Trench, the crafting of an icon [https://www.vam.ac.uk/exhibitions/the-burberry-trench-crafting-an-icon](https://www.vam.ac.uk/exhibitions/the-burberry-trench-crafting-an-icon) Freddie Mercury \| Splendid Things [https://www.vam.ac.uk/exhibitions/freddie-mercury-splendid-things](https://www.vam.ac.uk/exhibitions/freddie-mercury-splendid-things) A drink afterwards would be very nice indeed, but I fear that the Zetland Arms we’ve been to may be crowded and noisy. We can try it, and I’ll also look into other places nearby.
