Banksy, but without the queue

Simply Southville has eventually got round to visiting the Banksy exhibition at the city museum and can highly recommend it. However, based on the 'three-hour queue' stories got up there at 1pm and waited for about an hour and 45 minutes to get in. Not too bad I thought.

However, as I waited it became clear that the overall queue was dwindling. When I'd looked round the exhibition and came out at 3.45pm there was only about 30 or so people waiting to get in. I'm sure they'd all be in within a quarter of an hour.

The exhibition has a last entry at 4.30pm and closes at 5pm. I walked past the museum again at 4.25pm and guess what? No queue, you could walk straight in.

So if you've been put off by the stories about never-ending queues, go late in the day and if today was a good example, you'll get in pretty quickly. One word of warning though, Wednesday is late night viewing so the 4pm(ish) quick entry might not work so well.
