Hi Pauline, Thank you for some wonderful ideas. That's already given me some different ways of thinking and approaching the task. The museum is in Malton, North Yorkshire. Its a 2-roomed Victorian solicitors office who was friends with Dickens and the author was also a client. Its currently run by 2 senior people who are keen to retire. I have offered to take it over and re-point it in January ready to re-open in Easter. One thing I am happy to do is to acknowledge your input and that of anyone else on the web site. Its not a payment but it could include links to your site etc. My aim is to get it to a mid-point wherein its completely re-themed and then to seek sponsorship. With that money I aim to do a second phase to further enhance it with tech/interaction etc. Sponsors will be acknowledged in the museum and online. I'm getting the content together with help from local people in the know. I just need to think about low/no budget ideas for representing it all visually. Thank you again for your ideas.
