Where have you been? (1 Viewer)

I must admit, it's quite funny seeing you complain about ticket prices for once!

Come on Nick, the admission is competitively priced with other airfields! Just take a packed lunch next time and be more efficient with your spending!

It wasn't even the money that left me baffled. It was just at how shit it was.

It's like the motor museum just being a car park.

I have seen it, but always thought it was for scholars and staff and not for the general public type plebs like me.

Might give it a whirl.

Want to find out the Otis family lineage? It's the place for you

You wouldn't actually *see* anything as such, unless you wanted to order up some stuff. Some of it's on an online catalogue, dunno how much. The rest'd be searchable there.

Home - Coventry Collections

Think of it as custodians of the city's culture over the years

Fair enough. Do you think that it should be cheaper, as the quality is not as good?

I'm sure you'll agree that their attendances won't be as high with that kind of cost to experience ratio!

It might be well worth it for plane enthusiasts.

The watch museum sounds great. I guess it all depends if you are fascinated by Coventry's history or not. I am guessing not in your case, cos all you do is slate the place.

As I said before, I have not the slightest interest in cars, but love the transport museum. I am not bothered by watches either, but I bet the watch museum is really interesting.

It's all about history.

I was going to go but ran out of time....

 

[Otis]

You deserve a ticking off for jokes like that, but I will let you off because I know you are on the wind up.

what the hell is Bilkos vintage emporium?! (and where is it?)

Showing my age here but Ernie Bilko is a cultural icon

And Top Cat was loosely based on Bilko too.

Wasn't the actor who played Doberman the voice of Benny the cat?
Used to enjoy watching both programmes.

The watch museum sounds as exciting as the pencil museum in the Lake District.

The Pencil museum, I can't see the point.
3 for me

You should go. You know where it may lead.

Going to need to be sharper than that!

Off the back of the City of Culture thread, here are eight places. Just wondering which you've been to. Hopefully(!) the vote allows for multiple choices.

I refuse to vote because you omitted the Motor Museum!

So you haven't been to any of them...

You can interpret it how you want.
But if you knew how to design a survey correctly, you'd have a choice labelled "None of the above".

If you were able to comprehend what I was looking for, you'd know that was irrelevant.

Not nice being told off by a grown up on a Sunday morning is it.

Well if people can't comprehend your survey, that is the definition of a poor survey.

 

[Nick]

It isn't too hard, which from the list have we been to.

 

[JimmyHillsbeard]

what the hell is Bilkos vintage emporium?! (and where is it?)

I have no idea but it's the only place from that list I'd consider.

God I miss Bilko

Ten'hut

Yup. A list, with a question where have you been?

Not even a single word in the question above one syllable!
