Hi all, A few of us had a discussion at PyconUK about doing a trip to Bletchley Park and the The National Museum of Computing. Saturday, 19 Oct seemed to be the best option. Londoners could meet at Euston Station and others could make their own way. In terms of timing: - Bletchley Park is open from 9.30am to 5.00pm - The Museum of Computing is "Fully open 1-5pm; Colossus and Tunny Galleries open all day" So we could meet at say 10am and get the train there, potentially using this national rail 2 for 1 offer: http://www.daysoutguide.co.uk/bletchley-park-(1) More info: http://www.bletchleypark.org.uk/ http://www.tnmoc.org/ So put it in your calendar and I'll email again a week before with specific meeting times etc. Cheers, Tom @tomviner
Hi, I'd love to go! But I'm away that weekend :-( (hiking in Ireland). 4 years living in London and I've been there 5 times. AMAZING place, please do one of the guided tours, worth doing it. So I hope to join another time :-) If the weather is not too bad: get some picnic and eat outside. Regards, On Sep/25/2013, Tom Viner wrote:

I'm tied up with a Boys' Club on Saturdays but I definitely encourage anyone to go who hasn't. Aside from the mainstream attractions of the Enigma / Codebreaking stuff and the NMOC, there's also a charmingly eclectic mixture of side exhibitions: a museum of wartime pigeons; the local model railway enthusiasts; a dusty garage of vintage cars; model ships made by a local club; someone's toy collection; the on-site wartime Post Office. And it's all run by fans who are delighted to talk. Definitely go if you haven't already. (And if you have). TJG On 25/09/2013 21:33, Tom Viner wrote:

I'm interested, and live locally, so I can cycle there. Bletchley Park is walking distance from Bletchley rail station, so it's much better to get a train to there than to Milton Keynes Central. By the way, Bletchley Park was chosen in part because of its closeness to the rail station, and to GPO communication lines.

In terms of timing:
- Bletchley Park is open from 9.30am to 5.00pm - The Museum of Computing is "Fully open 1-5pm; Colossus and Tunny Galleries open all day"
So we could meet at say 10am and get the train there, potentially using this national rail 2 for 1 offer: http://www.daysoutguide.co.uk/bletchley-park-(1)

So put it in your calendar and I'll email again a week before with specific meeting times etc.

As promised, just less than a week away, here's the details for the Bletchley Park / National Museum of Computing trip. Date: Saturday 19th Oct If, like me, you're London based, then join the Pythonista Express from Euston: Meeting time: 9:45am Location: Euston Station - Top of the tube escalators<http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/90/Euston_Station_esca...> . We're going to get the 10:13 (Platform 8) to Bletchley, arriving 10:49. Return tickets £15 if you book online now<http://ojp.nationalrail.co.uk/service/timesandfares/EUS/BLY/191013/1000/dep/...> . Now if you're making your own way to Bletchley, then go for around 11am, and I'm sure we can meet up with you. Give me a ring at any point if you're having trouble noticing a roving band of programmers in the station / park. I'm on 07828 013 277. See ya on Saturday!

In terms of timing:
- Bletchley Park is open from 9.30am to 5.00pm - The Museum of Computing is "Fully open 1-5pm; Colossus and Tunny Galleries open all day"
So we could meet at say 10am and get the train there, potentially using this national rail 2 for 1 offer: http://www.daysoutguide.co.uk/bletchley-park-(1)
More info: http://www.bletchleypark.org.uk/ http://www.tnmoc.org/
So put it in your calendar and I'll email again a week before with specific meeting times etc.
Cheers, Tom

Just to add, if you're getting the train, follow the instruction here and print out the voucher. Then we can pair up and get half price entry to Bletchley: http://www.daysoutguide.co.uk/bletchley-park-(1) On 13 October 2013 22:47, Tom Viner <tom@viner.tv> wrote:
As promised, just less than a week away, here's the details for the Bletchley Park / National Museum of Computing trip.
Date: Saturday 19th Oct
If, like me, you're London based, then join the Pythonista Express from Euston:
Meeting time: 9:45am Location: Euston Station - Top of the tube escalators<http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/90/Euston_Station_esca...> .
We're going to get the 10:13 (Platform 8) to Bletchley, arriving 10:49. Return tickets £15 if you book online now<http://ojp.nationalrail.co.uk/service/timesandfares/EUS/BLY/191013/1000/dep/...> .
Now if you're making your own way to Bletchley, then go for around 11am, and I'm sure we can meet up with you.
Give me a ring at any point if you're having trouble noticing a roving band of programmers in the station / park. I'm on 07828 013 277.
See ya on Saturday!

Hi all,
A few of us had a discussion at PyconUK about doing a trip to Bletchley Park and the The National Museum of Computing.
Saturday, 19 Oct seemed to be the best option. Londoners could meet at Euston Station and others could make their own way.
