Meet the relatives :-) Great picture! Coincidentally was reading a little about this yesterday (via Turing, natch) at Bletchley Park.
Having not visited BP for a good couple of years or so, I was very impressed by the transformation wrought by the refurb and new displays/exhibits, plus excellent video guide. Although I do oddly miss the slightly ramshackle, volunteer-run on a shoestring air it used to have. One of the quotes from someone who'd arrived at BP at the start of the war, left for a while and come back again felt apt: "I had left... a group of enthusiastic amateurs; I returned to a professional organisation..." This could easily be applied to the BP site as we've experienced it. :-)
