Just a note to this most interesting post, but the museum, whilst situated in Bletchley Park, isn't actually a part of Bletchley Park. We have our own website (http://tnmoc.net/ ) and have to raise funding completely separately - indeed we pay substantial rent to BP!
Most of the year we are open every Thursday and Saturday afternoon to the public, and by pre-arrangement on other dates to organised groups. Colossus and a few other exhibits are, however, open whenever the rest of the park is.
Just before Xmas we opened some new galleries, including one sponsored by the National Physical Laboratory on the history of Packet Switched networks (that's the internet, to those who don't geek!)
