London Transport Museum
An example shot of the inside of the London Transport Museum.  It's in 
the old (Victorian) Flower Market building.
The original Metropolitan Line train was full of padded booths.
A drawing from the 1860s of the Baker Street underground station, one of 
the first underground stations to open.  It looks pretty similar today, 
but modern people aren't as well dressed.
Poems and excerpts about how dirty the Thames was.

Clue fodder, or, more precisely bus "destination blinds" (long, 
scrolling rolls showing the bus's next destination).
More clue fodder: hanging destination plates.  They're hard to spot and 
read in this picture.
No caption would do justice to this plaque.

Dinner at Home
The game we cooked as part of our dinner: mallard duck, wood pigeon, 
partridge with bacon.  We had lamb burgers as an appetizer, and, 
yes, we had various vegetable dishes as well.
