Hi everyone, i thought i would let everyone know that i have finally got my space exhibition finalised and have the dates. It will be called Space for Everyone and will run from January 24th-April 21st 2007 at the Whitby museum,N.Yorkshire, England.It isnt on a grand scale but i hope people who come will enjoy looking at what i have put on show. The museum website is www.whitbymuseum.org.uk If all goes well it will be opened by Prof.David Lyth from Lancaster University who is an expert on the early universe. Whitby is famous for many things including the explorer Capt.James Cook RN whose ship Endeavour was built in the town. Best to all, David |

There's a famous pub by that name in East London, that was still there last I heard. Named after the Whitby collier that moored directly in front of it on the Thames. Some parts of the pub are 400 years old. Is there an equivalent pub in Whitby itself, or were you thinking of the London one? |
