I'll be going along also, to Bletchley Thursday and London Friday. I think
we should all have name badges. But will take a note of your mobile in
case :o)

Just seen on the BBC Web site
(http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6291422.stm):
"Plans are taking shape to set up a museum that celebrates Britain's
role in the origins of the digital age.
The National Museum of Computing will be based at Bletchley Park where
World War II code breakers built the first recognisably modern
computers.
The museum's centrepiece is the rebuilt Colossus computer that broke
high-level German communications during WWII.
The museum's founders are seeking funds and backers to exhibit more
machines from its extensive collection. " <more>

It's mentioned in this article - is anyone going to the BCS at 50 day there
tomorrow? I will be there - if anyone's going they can get in touch via
the mobile number on my Contact page at the site below. I'll also be in
London Friday and Saturday.
