Days out in the dry (1 Viewer)

OK then, I need a cunning plan of things to do that don't involve drowning.

Beyond the Transport Museum and Art Gallery, what's worth seeing and dong that's local... that's a bit unique beyond cinema and the like?

You don't need to be. Can go in the bar after or go bowling.

What is the aim of the trip?

I know you said not cinema, but have you tried the electric cinema in Brum?

Very small, drinks and snacks ordered from your seat. A good experience.

The Herbert could pass some time for half an hour, they did have a lego thing on. Basically about 10 things made out of lego, then downstairs the bit about Coventry.

Then the other rooms (was loads of stuffed animals last time I went).

Coventry Blaze !! Good night out !

Had a look. It's not a bad idea as such... the selection of films maybe not appropriate just atm, much as I'd like to see Daniel Blake.

Ah, you said Art. It isn't all art

What about those Live Escape things that are all the craze?

Fun, but not sure how to go about broaching the subject of a day out where you get locked in a room with me and have to escape...

Save your cash and just do it at home!

How about a ghost tour - https://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/ghosts-unlimited-13

What about a brewery?

OK so...

Apart from eating, and christmas shopping... what's on?

olderskyblue got closest to taste... with the notable exception of the tramway museum, which would have me murdered. Guess I'm looking for history/heritage/literature/theatre type things I guess... although am not entirely sure(!) Theatre's all about the panto bar Stratford it seems (and the Stratford stuff is *deep*, man)

I'm in danger of having to go to some Christmas Carols, so need a compromise!

I prefer a moist day indoors myself.

It was pissing it down raining when I wrote this originally. That kind of limits outdoors activites, so I was after options that were less likely to give me hypothermia.
