A quick visit after a long gap to the Tower

It's only £1 for residents of Tower Hamlets so we decided to look in for the morning.  This was one of my first jobs- serving teas here at age 15. It has changed enormously and is now very slick and I think more fun.  Then people used to wander around rather gloomily; Now the Beefeaters give very interesting and fun tours and we know what we are looking at.  I particularly liked the exhibits showing how the animals were housed at the Tower.  John likes the armour -  the photo is of that fitted for Henry 8th.  There is a mock up animation of Henry putting on his suit- including cod piece which attracted the biggest crowds.
