I've had a interest with the Egyptians for years
It only flairs up from time to time, but going to the British Museum turned me back into a child again. I fully intend on going there, and to the Natural History museum next time I'm in London.

Alt: I've got some rather spectacularly good pork & herb sausages to have for tea tonight, nom nom nom. Last time I had them in a sandwich with ketchup, it cured my hangover, and made me look like I'd been snacking on braaaains. I might even make them into a cayke in my Home Sweet Home later on.

Does that cover all bases?

I was intending on being there for the July Bash, but Sonisphere is the week after, and that's taking all my money.

But surely you can dream of actually visiting Giza and the Pyramids

At some point, I do intend on doing so.
But it's a few years away, at least.

Well when you do make it down, I'll go museuming with you if you like.
I fucking love museums, me.

I went to the Museum of London Docklands last Sunday - it's superb.

At a quick glance, looks a little like Liverpool Maritime Museum
That one is fucking ace too. Have you taken Len to any museums yet? (I'm assuming not)

Not yet, but she's been to the Natural History and Science museums with her mother.
I hope to God my enthusiasm for history will be passed on. My own father's bounding keenness for learning in all its guises has been a major influence on me so I can only hope to do half as good a job.

I've no doubt it will
It comes across on here clearly, so I'm sure it's all the more infectious IRL.

My Dad is both wonderful and irritating at the same time. He knows massive amounts about history, religion, etc etc. However, getting a straight answer out of him is near to impossible, he used to be a nightmare with homework help.

Don't worry about it Monty
kids generally love history. My little sister can now recite the whole of Perseus and the Gorgon Slayer, tell the story of Julius Caesar and the oracle, and knows all of the original version of Pandora's box, thanks to long car journeys sitting next to me. The key is to find the interesting stuff

Yeah as long as you don't decide on The Agricultural Revolution and the Three-Field System asyour topic of choice I imagine it will be fine.

that AA's obsession with the mysteries of the ancient Egyptians does not extend to being able to spell "Egyptians" correctly?
