Those among you who feel strongly that the government should intervene to save Bletchley Park for the nation are invited to sign an e-petition aimed at prompting just such action.
The petition states: “Please do not allow this crucial piece of both British and World culture to disappear. If ever an example were needed of Britain leading the world, this surely would be it. To allow it to fall into the hands of developers would be simply unconscionable.”
Bletchley gets £50,000 donation
A bid to save Britain’s computing heritage has been given a $100,000 (£57,000) boost by a joint donation from US hi-tech firms IBM and PGP.

We finally made it to Bletchley park at the weekend. It was well work a visit – we ran out of time to look around, so will have to go back again. Fortunately the tickets are valid for a year:-)
The Turing Bombe and Colossus are really something and very impressive.
