I'd recommend the whole day. I only got there about lunchtime and missed out on a lot.Originally posted by Sands of Time View PostI should really go - it's just down the road.
Is it an all-day thing?

I was lucky enough to get in on a guided tour.
The local branch of my wife's professional body arranged it as a day-long visit and about 20 of us went. I cannot remember the cost, but it was a no-brainer. The price included a light lunch.
We were guided around the house and the computer rooms. We got a lecture in the main hall in the house including the pre-history of the place that explained how it came to be bought and used.
The history of the Poles' involvement was a revelation (they deserve the credit for the whole thing being possible in the first place for what they did prior to WWII).
We also got some behind-the-scenes stuff.
So, if someone in the area wants to arrange a ContractorUK Bletchley Park RLM...My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment
