    Further stamp releases by RM. Think they had a series to mark 1000 years since 1066?

    1000 years? Are you a time traveller? If so, can you get me a diplodocus egg?

    I saw it a couple of years ago and thought it was pretty good. The inevitable queues and keenness to push you through to generate maximum revenue will spoil it.

    But it's 900 years and it's not a tapestry, it's an embroidery as the missus has just pointed out. :)

    And surely it's only coming home?

    Went to check it out a couple of years ago. Really enjoyed it. Definitely worth a look! Pretty amazing thing.
