El Reg visits two shrines to computing history as the UK lifts coronavirus lockdown

WhereAmI?

My next-door neighbour worked on Bombe no.6 - and that's all she would tell me. She felt herself still bound by the Official Secrets Act some sixty-odd years after the end of the war and long after the expiry of the secrecy surrounding Bletchley Park. She died around ten years ago and I have to say it - taking all that history with her. No names - if she wouldn't tell me a bout the Bombe, I feel it's incumbent on me not to say who she was, but I have seen her name on a list of the Wrens who worked there.
