I am currently at Future World @ Goonhilly, in Cornwall. Not quite geek central, but definately a place of interest. How about a series of articles sending people to visit different places that would be of interest to geeks? I would be happy to write this trip up and submit it (hint hint) 
Back next week...

I did something similar a few years back, on computer days out. If you get commissioned, PM me your email and I'll forward you the text, if I still have it.
Bletchley Park is a must...

Well, I'm partway through writing it up, and got several pics. I won't be sending anything til I get back, as I am back at Futureworld for their free internet cafe, and had a go on the Segways. I think the summation is not bad if you have children, but overpriced. It's nice being cut off from everything for a bit - no pooter, no 'net, no mobile (no signal in the village I'm staying in), but must admit I am a little happy at using the free net access here! Off sailing shortly! See you all when I get back!
