The "museum" as was is now "The Archive Room" and is very different. Is it right though that Peter Morgan's Office is no longer there? Yes. Wasn't that all put together by Martyn Webb? Possibly. Saw Martyn this afternoon, I'll try to remember to ask him next time I see him.

I didn't realise MMC did tours on Sat. Is this new? Is the gift shop open as well?
I'm traveling back from Williams on Saturday and could use another bag of their leather offcuts!

Graham mentioned them a while back now and I can't imagine the gift shop will be closed for business..

Yes the shop is open. One Saturday per month is a "special" event.
Haven't seen leather offcuts for quite a while, but I suspect that is down to the Covid business.

K Yeah, I had one booked for March 2020 which was cancelled. Still will be nice to see how they've scrubbed the place up

And now to the important question! Do we still get sandwiches and cake at the end of the tour?

I'm going to get there a bit earlier - the canteen appears to do a half decent vegan brekkie. However, the temperature is supposed to be -1 degree in Rushden, so it will definitely be a thermals/heated seats journey...... If you see a very cold fat tattooed skinhead, say hello
