Bletchley Park - What the hell is it coming to ?

What a chinless wonder. "Thank you for your service" What a lovely chap!

Amazing isn't it, how when you give some people money, they turn into class A pricks!

My Father in Law worked radio there during the War.

I was at Bentley Priory yesterday. It seems to have been redeveloped very well and there are some really nice apartments in the main building. Not for the faint hearted though (wallet?) but imagine having your sitting room in the same office that was used at the height of the battle? I would get up every morning totally invigorated and ready to fight for Europe all over again.

Hmmmmmmmmm...'appears as though B. Park is going to be run like Disneyland...one "pass" for the original Disneyland park itself...one pass for their California Adventure addition...and one for their new "Cars"/"Radiator Springs" addition (whatever it's called).

Here's a link to 'The National Museum of Computing' web site

"Deciphering dissent" at Bletchley Park. TNMOC trustees' statement. | The National Museum of Computing

It is certainly sad to see that massive gate in the path the leads to the Colossus & Tunny rebuilds at 'The National Museum of Computing' no more than a hundred yards away from the main museum.

How Iain Standen, CEO of the Bletchley Park Trust, doesn't see this as part of the WW2 story is frankly unbelievable.
Also as the worlds first programmable electronic computer the Colossus is valuable in its own right.
He has evicted the privately owned Churchill Collection, but it seems we are getting a Mcafee display/advertisement on site.
The Bletchley Park website makes no mention of the Colossus or Tunny rebuilds & only begrudgingly seems to have a small link to the National Museum of Computing.

I could go on but I'm bad tempered enough already.
