And it's bloody great, it is me babbers!

Nah seriously, this is well worth a visit - free entry too and it's on till towards the end of August. There's lots to see and outside of the main areas, you have to tour around the whole museum and play "spot the Banksy" - where display cases of animals, pottery, artefacts etc have been subverted with a Banksy.

If you're thinking about it, then yep, I'd recommend it.

Yep, def worth it. You might have to prepare for a queue...we started down at the top of Park Street but only took us half an hour or so to get in.

I'd like to see it but I'm in Edinburgh. Not much chance of it touring I suppose.

PS It's queue.

LOL..I thought it was "Que" as in a Frenchman or Spaniard saying "Eh?".

Anyway, yes, it's very good. There's a whole room of paintings done specially for the exhibition, another room of excellent animatronics and then other Banksys dotted around the various exhibition rooms. But it's not [i]too[/i] much and you get round it nice and easily in a couple of hours...without art overload.

I have pics which I'll happily post up if people want to see them.
