After you've seen London and done all the major sights such as St Paul's and Madame Tussaud's and the Sherlock Holmes Museum, what else is there to do that's small or out in the suburbs and less well known?
Answer
If you are sporty, crocket and tennis museums. What about chocolate?
My last new year wish is to add another chocolate museum or two or three to my travel plans.
My latest find is the chocolate museum in Brixton. If you go to Streatham Wine House (see one of my posts), combine it with a trip to the chocolate museum in Brixton.
As you will see from the website, there's a cafe with pictures of old chocolate advertisements, a museum covering British chocolate and the origins of chocolate over in America, a section on slavery and chocolate, and you can join a chocolate workshop for adults or children. See the website for details.
