100th Post!
This is a very special one as I have now got to 100 in the two and a half years I have been writing “Something for the Museum”. I was asked if I could do it as I had been putting my escapades on Facebook since I became a volunteer. These postings were getting longer and longer and not the usual stuff you see. According to James I was the most active thing at the LMM and doing stuff so regularly that it was sensible I continue but not on Facebook but with a proper posting in a Blog. This one will be quite long as I am making it an Index for all the previous postings with a little description so you know what it is about. The titles don't always give you an idea about what the subject is. So here goes in chronological order from the beginning in February 2013.
