Went to Olympia yesterday and had a brilliant day as we went by train - not just any train but a fantastic 50 year old diseal train that ran from Hastings right into OLympia station! The snow didn't bother us - on the way up we were actually early and on the way back had to rescue people stranded by their modern SE train!! The whole day cost price of entry + £20 for travel - a bargain and its going again next year so watch out for adverts (but not until I've got my ticket!!) They even had decent tea/coffee (50p) bacon butties and homemade cakes!!
Plus I was totally bowled over by Joey from Warhorse - it could have been a real horse standing there and his reaction to the horses and carriages coming in for the fniale was just amazing - you just forgot it was a puppet. Best bit was he was left alone at the end and galloped out in true olympia style - bought a tear to the eye
