[Blackpool] [Liverpool] Bletchley Park Visit

[Jonathan Archer]

Hi Mike,
yes we are probably looking at an 8am or earlier start, discussions are 
still open but we have just had quotes back for a self drive minibus for 
the RossLUG folks which seems to be the way we are going.

There has been little interest from the Manchester LUG as apparently a 
trip had already been planned for the 1st June.
I'm not sure what everyone elses thoughts are from Blackpool or 
Liverpool as to transport.

Jon
