Vicar and the Enigma

We left a not so sunny somerset and drove through driving rain to Turville, narrowly missing a collision with a car that aquaplaned across the front of our car on the motorway and slammed into the barrier. A close call. So we didn't see the Vicar of Dibley but did see her house, her church and her village. Very cool. Then on to Bletchley Park to discover the Enigma machine. Lovely stately home on the grounds plus the code breaking huts and a demonstration of the Bombe. Very interesting. 3000 messages were delivered a day during the second world war which increased to 15000 during the peak. Chess masters and mathematicians, together with the WRENS breaking the codes. Fascinating, especially the displays about those brave homing pigeons. We then traveled north to Nottingham for our first panto, Peter Pan, featuring David Hasselhoff. He was so good...very camp...and lots of references to Bay Watch and Knight Rider. So funny. A great night out.
