Just wanted to tell the world that you must all go and see the Ice Age Exhibition at the British Museum – it makes you want to go home and whittle a mammoth tusk immediately.  These sculptures on view are so old ie 40,000 years old and made with such precision given that there were no metal tools – it is truly mindboggling.  It is awe-inspiring to think we made pictures long before we wrote down language.  Particularly in the animal pieces, they have captured the movement of the animal.  I cannot recommend this exhibition highly enough – incidentally it is well worth, on this occasion, using the audio equipment.
