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 we need to charge a non-refundable attendance fee (detailed below) to go towards the organiser’s fee of this Meetup group. I am hosting this event on my own Meetup group (Giselle's group) and cross-posting to this group in case you would like to join us! 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. Fingers crossed! Catching up afterwards is a big part of meeting up. This event is free but a £2.50 non refundable (even if you cancel) maintenance fee (to help pay Meetup fees) applies and Meetup will charge you a small amount on top. We would appreciated it if you cancelled no later than 2 days before the event and to please avoid cancelling on the day as that may get you removed from the group. Please only RSVP if you intend to attend. Let's meet outside South Ken tube station: outside the Paul sandwich shop opposite the tube exit on Thurloe Street, then we'll walk over together As always, attending will be at your own risk
