Cinnamon Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I have just heard that the Tutankhamun exhibition is coming to London in November this year,to be held at the O2 (Millenium Dome) centre. Maybe I am out of touch & this was announced ages ago, but how brilliant is that? I will certainly be after tickets to take my girls to see it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali-s Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 My parents took me and little sis to see Tutankhamun at the British museum many, many, years ago. it was very good from what I can remember of it, although at the time we had wanted to go to the zoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 Yes,I am sure we will have to bribe the girls with the promise of lunch at Yo! Sushi to get them to see the exhibition I can't wait.......it is something I have always wanted to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 LIke Ali, I remember seeing it as a smallster, and the memories of the beautiful mask and sumptious decorations have stayed with me all these years - I for one will be up for going. Perhaps it could be another Omlet gathering.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I've been to see a tutankarmune exhibition too. It's the one in Dorchester though! It has an exact replica of the tomb and what was inside the place he was buried! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I went to the Tutankhamun exibition about 15 years ago, when it came to Edinburgh - simply breath-taking, and something I would love to see again. I've always wanted to go to Egypt, and to The Valley of The Kings, but until the lottery win comes up, it's just a dream! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paola Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 OH loves Egypt and has been three times He has seen his tomb in the valley of the kings and the museum that holds the gold boxes I think that we might be going to the exibition I hope the girls will love it.
