This morning The Mister and I went to the Science Museum. We started at the top with the medical science and history which was fascinating and worked our way down. The last thing we saw was an exhibition about Alan Turing who was a brilliant scientist. It was a sad story though as in 1952 he was convinced of homosexuality and sentenced to a year of female hormone therapy. He died in 1954 from cyanide poisoning which was believed to be suicide.
This photograph is of The Mister standing next to a genuine Iron Lung. This probably won't be funny to anyone except The Mister's brother!
After the museum we went off and did more shopping and mainly managed to get everything we needed before going to a fab pub for dinner with friend from the Ship of Fools.
