"Cinema? "

Nothing showing at the NEC until pm, too late. That was option 2. Option one was foiled by the weather forecast...

Sutton

There's basically a lot of parks from what I remember, with some historical stuff mixed in. Unless you've got one of those games like ingress you might be a bit stuck.

Good luck!

You don’t say if you have access to car transport. If you do

The national transport museum - Wythal

The nations motor bike museum - junction 6 M42

You could venture to Stratford-upon-Avon and raid in some Shakespeare history. Mary ardens House perhaps if Shakespeare's birthplace

I agree with evie if you have transport go to Stratford it's not too long a drive. Redditch has a vue cinema. The shopping isn't too bad either to while away a few hours
