Nic
Houslip says "having visited Bletchley Park on several occasions I can
say that it is absolutely fascinating to learn what they achieved, and how many
people were stationed there (amazingly some 8,800) and the fact almost nobody
knew what they were doing. Incredibly the Germans (and Russians and Japanese)
never twigged that we were breaking their codes. There is an additional part of
Bletchley - the National Museum of Computing that is on site but this a separate
organisation and is a much more complex visit. It would be better to avoid attempting
to cover both on the same day so I will
canvas visitors for on our V8 Tour so I can assesss the level of interest for
a separate visit to the National Museum of Computing on another occasion. So we
may want to set a date in 2016 for this". Important - No part of the event is timed and it is not a rally or a competitive event. | ||
