Pinching the “Dons” bit was the final insult to football ... the new town has absolutely no connection with Wimbledon (or Aberdeen!), or a Mafia boss.

I get that, I used to work with an ardent Wimbledon fan, vowed never to go MK.
FTR, we were en route to Bletchley Park, a truly remarkable place to visit :thumbsup:

20 years ago the BBC did a brilliant documentary series Station X, once the secrets were out. I read the follow up book. Incredible place, incredible brains, Churchill called them “the geese that laid the golden eggs but never cackled". I must go one day.

They recommend 4hrs would do it, but we left just under 6 hrs.
There's a new D Day exhibition, which is fab.
The National Radio Centre is housed there, where three well intended nerds, showed the art of radio ham, whilst chatting to some guy in Siberia :)
