Hi folks

I was thinking about arranging a day out at Bletchley park for us sometime in the next few months
or in autumn and was wandering how many people would be interested in going?

Bletchley offer a group discount rate (plus lunch in a private area etc.) if 20 or more people are
interested in coming.

However, before I start to look at what was possible, I wanted to see how many would be interested in
coming for the day? We can arrange some sort of run-in/run-out/run-about before going to Bletchley
and then have lunch there.

So, if wartime secrets is your thing, sign up! And if we can get enough people, I'll get it arranged :P

Cheers!

Hi folks

Paul from East Midlands contacted me and pointed out that he and others from their
region are attending a car show at Bletchley later on in the year - 30th June.

http://www.bletchleypark.org.uk/calendar/event_det...

This show gives you access to the museum etc for £12, rather than the lunch +
group tour rates of £23 that I was potentially looking at.

Are people interested in attending this car show instead on the 30th? Or would
folks rather I arrange something more specific to us (with a lunch + drive around)?

Thanks!

A

Ok folks, what we will be doing is joining Paul and the East Midlands crew at the Bletchley show on the 30th June.

However, as we are sort of crashing the event rather late, I will need confirmation of who is wanting to go.

As such, if you are NOT able to make the date, could you remove your name from the list.

If you have not yet put yourself down on the list and want to go, I will need to know by next Thursday (25th April) at the latest, i.e. put your name on the list by then.

Thanks!

A

Just a reminder - list will be finalised tomorrow.

If you want to come, please put name down as I need to send the details to Paul.

Cheers!

Hi folks

I've passed on numbers to Paul who is organising the event for us with Bletchley.

However, you will need to pre-purchase your own ticket to the show at the Bletchley shop, using this link...
http://www.bletchleypark.org.uk/shop/view_product....

It is valid as of the moment, but if it changes you want to find
"Classic Car and Motorbike Picnic car pass £12.00"

You will need this pass to get in on the day.

Thanks!

Hi folks

If you were planning on coming to this event and have NOT ordered your ticket yet, can you let me know ASAP.

It might be the tickets are no longer for sale. Paul is finding out for us, but I need to know if anyone else
besides Russ is affected.

Cheers!

Hi,

I've just spoken to Bletchley and they have a problem with the online shop.
It should be working again in the next few days and car tickets will be available then.

Paul

Hi folks

Here is the run-in plan.

If you are not joining us on the run-in, you will still need to meet up with us at the meeting point so that we can go in together and get put in the right place. See the run-in plan for meeting up details.

Please remember - you must have PRE-BOUGHT your tickets!! If not got them by now, do so ASAP!

Run-in plan can be found at...
