[QUOTE="silverthwait, post: 366464, member: 103"]Memories of silver: Many people re-visit certain places out of habit, or because they are absolutely outstanding, or they have some kind of psychic compulsion. I suppose there are other reasons, but those three apply to me and London's Silver Vaults. Oddly enough, I don't much care for silver jewelry...but everything else - Oh Yes! Everytime I'm there, I think, I've only so much time, I've been there before, there are places I haven't been, etc., etc. But there I am, mesmerized, envious, devising gorgeous dinner parties with food to equal the serving dishes, and impeccable servants, and, and... Ah well. The last time I was there, I found one of those wonderful London happenchances that just delighted my soul. I was a few streets away, walking next to an iron fence in front of a house. A discreet sign advised me to, "Push button to see the Roman bath." So I did! Anyone else ever see it?[/QUOTE]
