Hunterian Museum

This place has excellent exhibitions but it's slightly dull for younger peeps. Having said that, there is a 'weird and wonderful' collection, which has things like animal skins, bones and trophy heads. Basically, if you like gross, slightly sickening trophies and have a morbid fascination for weird dead stuff (who doesn't?), then there's something for you here. There's even a kids' art corner for the budding Tracy Emins of the world, and of course there's the obligatory over-priced gift shop, where you can buy a book that you'll never read for an astronomical amount. Joy.
