I thought I should write to Arachne about the following I had to wait until today before I could.
I was at the V & A last weekend to see the Connect 2005 exhibition and sale of crafts. Afterwards I found that the Lace, Textiles, Fashion galleries were closed I was told for the foreseeable future. I was also told that I should have looked on the web first before deciding to go to the V & A.. Well if you do go to the web site you will not see Lace or Textiles mentioned. It seems they have had artefacts stolen from many of the galleries, so they have decided to put a new security system in, plus there is a 10 year programme which has started to update all the galleries. So I suggest that if anyone wants to go to the V & A to phone first to see which galleries are open.
