Earlier this weekend
esmerelda_t and
nodbear went on a fangirls' pilgrimage to the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich. Sadly I happen to be 400 miles away so I didn't get to go and play (boo!) however they came back with some highly entertaining pictures which they have requested and required me to post. Enjoy!
National Maritime Museum, Greenwich
HMS Implacable stern windows
Admiral Lord Exmouth does not appear overly pleased at the presence of a French cafe in Greenwich. Seriously click on this pic and just look at the expression on his face! (I am convinced the inscription on the back of this statue reads "I despair I really do...")
Admiral De Saumarez
Sir Sidney Smith
Sidney Smith's fabulously bitchy plaque
Who knew there was a museum devoted to us at Greenwich??
Don't mind if I do!
