Thanks for offering. 

I'd love to see the museum restoration itself.

Snoop around the museum store.

Any chance to look at Scott's 1901 Discovery.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

No requests, but it's a gracious offer.

Have a great time during your visit!

I'm going up to the National Maritime Museum (Greenwich, UK) again next week, although I just went yesterday, as I'm going to do a tour of the Painted Hall ceiling conservation work. I'll post some pictures later. More importantly; if anyone would like any particular photos of something, please let me know below and I'll see what I can do. They do allow photography inside, but not commercial photos. Please bear in mind that the lighting on some of the displays isn't conducive to clear pictures. Plus, there's a lot of reflective glass to shoot through first! I'll probably be going on Tuesday, so respond asap.
