Challenge 793: Valentine's Day
It's Valentine's Day, and my wife Carol has gone skiing for the weekend. Here I am a few weeks ago at Viktor Wynd's Museum of Curiosities in London. Can you supply me with a more romantic dinner companion? And perhaps some dinner to go with it? High res is here.  |

Steve's Valentine date is ruined by an unwanted photo bomber! Unless, of course, it's just a wynd up.

This place looks absolutely amazing! Why didn't I know about this place 2 years ago?  I think I could spend at least a day here, if not longer. _________________ Dorothy: Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore |

Re: Challenge 793: Valentine's Day
I hadn't discovered it when you were here two years ago! Or I'd certainly have taken you there. I only stumbled upon it last November, since when it's become my favourite place in London. Apart from the truly bizarre museum downstairs - everything from two-headed cats to 19th century pornography to a gold-plated rhinoceros skull - there's a cocktail bar upstairs that specialises in absinthe. I had a drink there with my son, Joe, and he asked the waiter if they had any interesting snacks to go with their curious cocktail menu. He thought for a moment before replying: "Well, we have chocolate anuses." And so he did.  |

Not quite a free pass but certainly an advantage over the horrors of McDonalds. Does it occur to you wonder why white chocolate?  _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |
