I am going to take a break for a few days, see how I feel about adding more photos. I have about 500 more, but now not sure how to see which ones are best. I just don't have the time right now to go through them all and pick which are suitable.
I'll be back on Wed.

Gail, I have been enjoying all your threads on the different mineral shows you visit in your country, all of them are wonderful and make us to be there in some way.
However this photographic report of your visit to this great Museum is even better than the others, British mineralogy has been one of my favorites for years and the Museum is one of the places I want to visit some day (years ago I visited the old Geological Museum just around the corner but I had no time to visit the Natural History Museum and no choice to go back to London since then).
It is great to see all of those drawers full of witherites, Cornish copper secondaries, Herodsfoot bournonites and so on. Please keep on posting and treating us with all of these classic beauties.
Just one last thing, the specimen in picture DSC_0243_2.JPG, is it not a liroconite instead?
Thanks for your efforts in posting this great report,
Felix Garcia

I have been trying to edit that for days, after realizing it is liroconite, but I can only seem to edit the last post I put up.
And thank you for your kind words.
