When I grow up...
I want to be the Master of Trinity College.
Oh blog, not only did we have drinks in the Master's garden, but then we were allowed to explore the Lodge proper and gaze upon the bookshelves (full of books bequeathed by Masters past) and the portraits, and lounge in his sitting room and dream of playing the piano in his music room and then, best of all, he let us into his office. So many books and desks that have been worked upon by some of the greatest minds in their fields...
I think my favourite thing was the portrait of Elizabeth I in the music room, actually. She's beautiful, and I could have gazed upon her all night long. But he threw us out eventually, as he had to go and wish the Choir luck upon their upcoming tour.

Hello SC. did you hear the choir sing too?
Perhaps when you are in London the portrait gallery should be one of the to dos. It's like photos of the past.
Did you stick gum under one of the desks?

Didn't get to hear the choir and was terribly well behaved regarding my gum.
Portrait gallery: That sounds good to me. I'm looking for things to do.
