A great event, there’s amazing progress already on the new site. Lots of people visiting, highlight was obviously an appearance by ‘Janie’. I’m sure there will be better pictures, but for now:

A quick bump for this. Lots of work going on at the new Museum site today. Come by on Sunday if you’re in the Cambridge area, and support this exciting new venture.

We’ll be there with the spitfire project; this looks like an exciting re start for the museum, I have been following all of the frantic groundworks, and clearing of buildings by the team on FB, hats off to all involved.
