I’m 100% certain you can still get in free using this.
London has an amazing amount of free museums – alongside the obvious ones like the British Museum, the V&A, Natural History etc. there is the Horniman with its daft walrus, the Sewing Machine Museum, the Geffrye Museum of the Home, and my favourite: the Hunterian Museum which is a massive warehouse of pickled dicks.
All museums should be free, and the fact that London has so many that are is something that places it atop The Amazing Hill Of Knowledge and allows it to light The Awesome Beacon Of Education which illuminates The Brains of Children Of All Ages.
It’d be fun to see the reaction of someone if you rocked up and presented this. I know it’s been free for years but they do still try and guilt a donation out of everyone.
Isn’t it free anyway?
I went there around that time and I’m still cross with a quiz answer. The question was “You’re a T-Rex and see a human on their own, what do you do?”
A. Eat it
B. Ignore it
I said A. Eat it. The answer was B. Ignore it.
They said because humans weren’t around at that time. I knew humans weren’t around, I wasn’t stupid, but that wasn’t the question. I’m a T-Rex who’s just seen something to eat. I wouldn’t know or care if it’s supposed to be there. It’s food.
I tried to explain to my dad and he didn’t care and the staff just told me humans weren’t around back then.
That T-Rex model also featured on the front of their official VHS.
Dress up in your best 80s gear and try to explain how it was 1988 when you set off for the museum but then it’s on you to explain what took you so long.
See if they accept it then
Give this to the museum itself. they can use it as a meta-exhibit.

This has 1980s “Big Book Of Dinosaurs” vibes …
