Ohhhh gawd separated at birth or what!

teine was just discussing this article with me yesterday, and said when we are down in Manchester in Aug to make a point to go and see it.

Then went on to discuss visiting Bletchley Park, and how he bet you would love to do something like that, I wont mention anything about building your own Enigma machine, nope nope nope!

Not the plaque, which is new, but the statue of him in the gay village.

And yes, I did think the four of us might do the 2 1/2 hour Bletchley Park tour.. And the computer museum, and check out the "build your own Enigma machine".. :)

I seem to remember something about the statue, that the worlds biggest Computer companies were asked to donate toward the cost, and all refused.

I so have to go there, perhaps we should make a weekend of it...

if you mean Manchester, how about BiCon? :)

Bletchley Park, however, is just at MK..

Irrelevant commnt on this post, but there is some discussion of the NZ scene here that I thought you might want to see.
