*********************** | Cambridge impressions by Iris B. 2007 |
Cambridgshire evokes all sorts of images of young gentlemen in v-neck rowing sweaters, student buzzing, cobbled streets, dusty book-shops with eccentric owners and of course summers spent punting (very much like rowing a gondola in venice, just without the singing)...
And... well it is JUST that :)

|  | *************************** A SPOT OF HISTORY A bit off the high-street with it's lovely little shops, just down at the board walk - you are hit full on by a very 'sudden' english country life scene... This is Philomene, the cow - minding her own business... |
|  | ***************************** And of course the competition is on with the OTHER University town of Oxford... It is a gentlemenly competition though - no flying fists or whizzing daggers... it's done at a BOAT RACE >> Cambridge versus Oxford... ohh look at those legs!!! hihihi |
