Support for Bletchley

I think it's really great to see you guys getting behind Bletchley Park, particularly refreshing seeing the sarcasm of some of the (US-originating) comments towards our heritage on Slashdot, which picked up on this story. Clearly some of you have seen it for yourselves, and were as impressed by the work that has gone on there as I was. Let's not forget, the redeveloped site is less than 20 years old, and it's still growing. Let's hope there's not going to be the infighting that you suggest, 61320. There's little sign of that at the moment. On your other point, that surely someone will donate the funds to keep it going - let us hope so. Bletchley does have some generous contributors, just not enough at the moment. Fortunately visitor numbers are rising, forecast to be up 20 percent year-on-year. It's not just the millionaires who can help save our heritage.
