Craig’s corner

You may well not know this but I am a self-certified ‘transport geek’ so the recently opened Elizabeth Line (Crossrail) feels like the perfect excuse to share a few suggestions of places to visit along its route. It also, by the way, starts in Reading, ends in Shenfield, and takes in Heathrow, Paddington and centrally located stations en-route and will be a great way for some of you to get to the Club faster and more directly.

Paddington Tottenham Court Road

The Dominion Theatre outside the station is currently home to the great hit musical Grease which is running until late October.

Farringdon

Head to the brutalist architectural icon, The Barbican. The Our Time on Earth exhibit is an immersive exploration of the way we live along with The Barbican Theatre where the musical Anything Goes delights audiences.

Liverpool Street

You’ll find one of London’s most interesting small museums here, it’s on an old Georgian terrace and called Dennis Severs House. He lived there between 1979 and 1999 and turned it into a time capsule. To note: open Thursday to Sunday.

After Paddington Bear’s wonderful cameo appearance at the Queen’s Jubilee, there’s no better location to start the Paddington Bear guided tour. A quick stop at the Paddington Bear gift shop located in the station is always a must!

Whitechapel

Here you can visit The Whitechapel Gallery. The current exhibition, until 4th September, is The London Open 2022 and showcases the most dynamic artistic talent from across the capital.

Custom House

ExCeL London is to host one of the world’s most exciting immersive experiences this summer with Jurassic World: The Exhibition. Come face to face with life-sized dinosaurs and walk through richly themed environments.

Bond Street

Walk down New Bond St to The Royal Institute, where at the Faraday Museum you can explore over 200 years of history-making science.

Canary Wharf

Visit the Museum of London Docklands where the current exhibition Executions explores how public executions shaped Londoners’ lives and the city’s landscape, showcasing fascinating objects, paintings and projections.

Stratford

Here you have a fantastic opportunity to explore the world-famous London Stadium in the Olympic Park. Go behind the scenes and find out fascinating facts with the part-guided, part-multimedia tour.
