The description of your experience matched mine precisely. There was more zoological information than anything.

Disappointing.

I had a similar experience some years back when with much fanfare an exhibition of Monet and Seurat came to Worcester. Much to my disappointment there was just one painting by each artist. I seem to recall that the descriptions and history were quite good in this case, but it was frustrating to have made a special journey all the same.</p> I sympathise with you on this Richard.

That is not what museums are for - museums are to hide objects within and discourage rag tag and bobtails from visiting. It might just disturb the dust.

Ok - so I am a grumpy old woman.
