So, it's a standard Vue. But I tend to lean more towards the Vues than any other chain. This is…read morethe closest cinema to my place of residence, and it is very easily accessible via bus, tube, foot, hoverboard, roller skates, although I can't vouch for parking, as I clearly don't have to park my hoverboard. Regardless! Movies are £11.50 for standard seating and I believe £13 for VIP. I don't know that splurging for the VIP seats is necessary here as the standard seats are quite roomy, comfy, and have tons of leg room. I'd plopped my bag, coat and scarf in front of my seat, still had plenty of leg room, and people could easily pass by. There don't appear to be any "XTREME" screens, so you'll have to go to a larger Vue if that's what you're after. The seating and floor were clean, they had a Ben and Jerry's, and I got to see the new Bond well before my American buddies back home. I couldn't really ask for more.

The prices are reasonable and it's not unusual for directors to come in for Q&A sessions after screenings. The quality of screenings is faultless and attention is obviously shown to the quality of the sound and the picture. The auditorium is very spacious yet it feels homely, the seats are comfortable, and as everyone is there for the same thing - to see a quality French film - it is very unusual to have people talking through the screening. The cafe area is also lovely, with a good atmosphere, if a little pricey. If you're a fan of French cinema you can do no better than Cinema Lumiere.

We were in London for a week and we visited more museums than we normally visit in a year. My wife…read morewas especially interested in seeing the Victoria and Albert Museum. So, on our last day in London, we took the Underground to the South Kensington area to see the Victoria and Albert. It was well worth the effort of getting here. The V&A is awesome. And, like most of the museums in Britain it is FREE. We spent about 3 hours here and barely scratched the surface. You could easily spend a day (or days) in this museum.

I was visiting Saatchi during their Flowers installations. The collection was just ok, could be better. Since there is admission fee I was expecting more art works on the view. Saatchi is accessible facility with walking distance to public transport. Crew at Saatchi are engaging and very helpful. With so many other galleries and museums in London, I wouldn't recommend visiting unless they have interesting artworks on view that compromise the entrance fee.

Housed in a grand and impressive building, the NHM is well curated, with impeccable displays, and…read moreit's free. However, a donation of £10 is HIGHLY suggested as you enter. As with all London museums, there is security checking all backpacks, but this museum was checking for alcohol! When you see all the school teens sitting on the stairways (perhaps waiting for parents to pick them up?), then the alcohol check is understandable. Out of all the displays, my favorite was the dimly lit Treasures room. Each piece exhibited tells an important story beyond what you actually see like an Iguanodon tooth from the Mesozoic strata and found by Gideon Mantell (or his wife) and the rivalry that ensued between Mantell and Owen, who later usurped Mantell's contribution in discovering the first known dinosaur species and shaping the early understanding of dinosaurs. While I find the digital text for each display as being the true treasures, only 1-2 people can read at a time so you feel a bit rushed if you're a person (like me) who reads everything, yet people are behind you waiting their turn. In addition to the wonderful displays, there is a photo booth whereby you can have 3 photos taken against a green screen depicting a dinosaur encounter. What they don't tell you upfront is that the photos are NOT free and can be downloaded (depending on the package you choose) from £12 to £22 pounds. When I asked the staff for information on particular exhibits, I found them to be more than helpful and friendly, too. Allow time for this expansive gem.

Ride the escalator into the middle of the earth to find out what music is playing inside. See extraordinary taxidermy handiwork. Even see a fake dodo bird thought to be an adjacent species that didn't exist. And if you like dinosaurs this is your Mecca. Just don't dare sit anywhere like on some stairs in the corner or some overzealous guard will kick you right out. But otherwise you'll have a great time. Also enjoy the outside grounds for a stroll, and hit up the West entrance for zero lines while the hoards line up on the other side.

Also not having snacks available or the option to bring your own in vastly decreased the quality of the experience. We'd come back if they had a good film, but only in the winter.
