History, Politics And Current Affairs

I was in Leeds over the weekend for the Great War Group conference. We were very graciously hosted by the Royal Armouries Leeds. It's a fantastic museum with some truly amazing exhibits, from the prototype Maxim MG, to what is probably the only complete set of armour for an Indian Elephant. Although I was on a VIP tour of the museum on Sunday, I think I could spend several days there!

I would highly recommend a visit. I do plan to go back to Leeds at some point in the near future, so I can visit it again.

Also, there is a really nice bookshop in Leeds Dock next to the armouries and great pub within walking distance.

Btw, Paul McGann is a very nice man in person.
