The website is a good start to look. You'll need several visits to really do the place justice (and that excludes any of the - sometimes riveting - special exhibitions they have on). The cafe is very nice but take a spare arm and leg with you to pay... The place is very busy at weekends, but even during the week if you are unlucky your visit can correspond with a coachload of american artlovers bussed in from a West End Hotel...


But this and the Horniman are both local jewels we are very lucky to have I think!

If you like it you should definitely consider becoming a Friend of the Gallery - since it is a very good deal, and it pays for itself v quickly. Having said that, some of the exhibitions are better than others Friends of the Uffizi (sp?) last year was brilliant for example.

      I think Watsons General Telegraph do two margaritas  for £13 every Thursday. The Great Exhibition also does a margarita deal on a Thursday: https://www.greatexhibition.pub/new-events-1 I've not tried either deal yet.

      Recommending Aaron | Plasterer

      By Clairegh · Posted

      We first used Aaron's services for a badly damaged wall that had gone back to the brickwork due to water ingress from the bay window. We found Aaron initially through recommendation and were very fortunate to do so as we already had a couple of quotes from trades found online that were just ridiculous, clearly just a rip off, so not sure what we would of done without that recommendation. We have just had more work completed by him, two walls skimmed and more comprehensive work where the brickwork was exposed around the fireplace. The wall above the fireplace was the original plaster finish and in good condition but the original plan was to have the whole wall replastered but we couldnt get the tv off the wall bracket so asked Aaron if he could just plaster up to the tv, not ideal but not much choice. Aaron didnt have any issue with that atall and more than happy to do it. Amazingly the join between the new plaster and old plaster is invisible. Perfect feather edge finish.  Aaron is very pleasant natured, he turns up on time, he doesnt mess about and gets on with the job. He works in a very clean manner. He doesnt try and inflate the job to make it more expensive. We found him to be extremely competitively priced. Both jobs have been finished to an excellent standard. The finish is so smooth its like glass. We will certainly be using his services again in the future.     Aaron Manser 07773 410661

      Yes, and now there's a leak further down Barry Road. Two men from Thames came and stood there looking at it and then went away. Over 24 hours later water still pouring out and no sign of any action to repair
