Wednesday 1st February: Bletchley Park

There appears to be sufficient demand for a coach trip to Bletchley Park, the WW2 code-breaking site, although the Colossus area will not be open. A guided tour and a sandwich lunch will cost £18. The coach will leave Station Hill at 09.30, returning by 6.15 and payment is required in advance. Please send a cheque for £18, payable to Reading U3A, and dated 15 January 2012 or earlier. The cheque must reach me by 8 December. Please include SAE or write your email address on the back.
