...This museum is brilliant, its one of the most popular places in London and you will not be dissapointed. Wax everywhere but full of artists and historical figures which look so real to life.
Its not a lot of money and you can spend a whole day there a feel you have done something. There are lots of queues which is a bit of a downer but at least when you do get in its really worth the visit.
You also have the planetarium to visit which is only next door and that too will not dissapoint because you learn about the stars and planets and about the space universe. Its a great museum for children and adults and you also have a tourist shop on the way out. You can buy all sorts of stuff. You can either buy museum stuff or London landmark statues.
I highly recommend this museum to all tourists and locals but remember to leave on time because...

Advantages: you can aget a bicycle everywhere ! Disadvantages: none found !
...i really like the middle of the town with this crazy waxmuseum where they copy all kinds of famous people... out of wax . in front of this museum there is an interesting place where you can get an impression of all kinds of people who run around in amsterdam ! and this is very multi-kulti ! believe me ! especially all the coffee shops are a great idea of what a good and friendly drug law can create ,all in all i think these 2 things are the main thing for amsterdam to go there . this town can be a very fast ,but it is really nice to get chilled everywhere you want -very fast . i will go there soon ,again !...

Advantages: Cheap, some good wax works Disadvantages: some unrealistic models
...I actually visited this attraction by chance while looking for something to do. It was well worth the visit though. Basically there are hundreds of waxworks models - some are excellent but others are adequate, a couple were awful and didnt look like the person they were portraying. Most are famous Irish persons although there are several foreign stars. One of the best rooms is a model of political figures including Irish PM Bertie Ahern, Bill Clinton and John Major. There is also a decent kids wax section devoted to Bart Simpson, Batman and the like. There are many sporting models as well and Irish swimmer Michelle Smith gets a place.
Okay this isn't madame tussads but there again it doesn't claim to be. It's a scaled down version but still has enough to keep you occupied for a couple of hours and obviously has an Irish bearing...

~ ~ The mad cabbie generally has a simple rule of thumb when it comes to getting a haircut. When it get long enough that it takes more than 10 seconds and a perfunctory rub with a towel to dry it once I get out of the shower, then its past time to visit more
I have only had my legs professionally waxed once, years ago. At the time I was amazed how this was removed all of the hairs in one go and they didn`t grow back for a few weeks. That was the one and only time, I didn`t think it hurt much, it was... more
