We're clearing out the spare room, shifting furniture and generally bashing about :-)

That sort of thing needs an early start! Do be careful, drop the drum kit, and swear loudly!

Well you'll 'ave a good nights kip cos your ice ain't there, and don't forget to take off ya almonds and daisies before you get into your skein.

That one is easy. However @CarlP's is a bit more :huh:

Ice= ice cream freezer = geezer = Fabbers.

Almonds= almond rocks = socks.

Daisies = Daisy Roots = boots.

Skein = Skein of thread= bed.

Sorted, bosh, Tuesday.
 
What was the program? I'll try and watch it on catchup if possible.
However, it sounds like the program has not portrayed the museum very well because there are loads of exhibits. Yes there are large spaces and walls but lots of smaller spaces leading off the big spaces.
It is laid out in a time line which follows the history of war.
There is also a second section which has a special exhibition which changes regularly.
Always interesting, always new things to see.
The programme was BBC Breakfast thingy. I got the impression that there were vast empty spaces with hardly any exhibits.
I used to do illustration years ago and I often had to go to museums to research various artefacts for accuracy, so it was helpful if the things I was researching were on view.
The WW2 Museum in Beyeaux was amazing when I visited that many years ago. It zig zagged back and forth with uniforms and weapons before opening out into other rooms crammed with stuff.
 
Oh dear! You have started a nostalgia trip. My wife is now playing Perry Como songs.
He did sing Catch a falling star and it brought back memories of the sixties. I can remember my brother, who is 7 years older than me returning home from a school trip to Holy Well , a spring not far away where fossils are washed out . They are star shaped segmented things called Crinoids, Middle Jurassic period if you want to be technical. We just thought they were stars!
