22. Visit 5 different museums



We paid a visit to the grandly titled Museum of Museums today. The reality isn't quite as grand! Situated in an old warehouse at the Trafford Centre, it comprises lots of exibits from other museums including an exibit about the FA cup from The National Football museum, some vintage cars, a couple of trams and buses, some cool vintage ice cream vans and some war memorabilia.

We enjoyed it (Charlotte possibly less than the rest of us, she spent a lot of the time saying "I go home Now!") and Paul got to harp on a bit about Bolton Wanderers and the White Horse cup final (first football game at wembley, estimated 300,000 fans, Bolton won 1-0 blah blah blah. I do listen sometimes!)

It's not fully open at the moment so entrance is free (normally £6 for adults and £4 for children, personally I doubt it's worth that, unless they get a lot more stuff, but I'm a bit tight now I have to pay for 4 people!)
