My partner and I visited this wonderful museum earlier this year for his birthday. It is a real gem because it charts the history of military museum from the ancient Greek and Egyptian civilisations, up to the modern day. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The only thing that is vaguely disappointing is the obvious lack of visitors. We visited on a Heritage Open Day, so it was slightly busier than usual. The collection itself is very extensive and interesting. We were particularly enthralled by the displays from the First World War, as well as the wooden Birthing Chair – which looks about as comfortable as a park bench!! It is a hidden gem and a must-see for those who are interested in history, medicine, dentistry, nursing the Army and much more!!

My wife and I had a day out at Sandown Park for the racing - and went afterwards to a restaurant in Claygate. Jimmy picked us up from home in Farnborough in the morning, and from the restaurant in the evening for the return journey. Top quality service as always - timely, courteous, and of course a very clean and comfortable car. Thanks Jimmy, thanks Dino.
