Copprhead, that is very nice of you to say, and I thank you.  :aok

My wife is very good to me, and I am very lucky.  On our honeymoon, she planned out a giant roadtrip for us to go to, among other things:  a Red Bull air race, the US Air Force Museum, Gettysburg, and the Udvar-Hazy flight museum.  She also went on a ride with me on a B-24 (The Collings Foundation one that Columbo once flew).
I'm devastated that you found her first! I looked for a good woman like that, never could find one with a computer, a john boat and a Shelby GT.......

I will be going to London this coming weekend 29th-2nd what museums and stuff should I go and check out?

I like much of the usual... The imperial war museum is good, but it's even better if you can get to Duxford to see the ones that actually fly. Buckingham is nice. I found the Albert and Victoria museum in Mayfair to be underrated - and while you're there, stop in at Harrod's. The prices aren't as good as in the US but there are unique items there. Beware: you could spend some money. There are pens in that place that cost as much as a 911. i went there mainly just to see it.

The Towers are worthwhile and, if you're there already, there's a little restaurant tucked right down on the Thames next to the towers called Perkin Reveller. I've had many a dinner there. It's a little nouveau but you won't regret it.

Some say revenge is a dish best served cold. I say it's usually best served hot, chunky, and foaming. Eventually, you will all die in my vengeance vomit firestorm.

He was saved. Then they threw him a towel and told him to wipe himself off and leave. That's how Soviet Savin' works.

No.  Ben and Jerry's ice cream burns me, like sunlight on a vampire.

Forget Ben and Jerris, its all about Blue Bell . :neener:

My analysis so far. Pretty bland night life in this part of London. Very where was closed by midnight. But I did meet some fine chaps in the last one that was open and in exchange for some war stories, we are meeting up tonight for a run at the west end and some of the more active bars.  Going to hit up the Tower of London and Churchill's war rooms today.

Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain that is pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain
