As it was such a lovely day today, HD and I went to Cambridge for a wander round. We had a look round the grounds of Trinity Hall (where he was an undergraduate) and also took a look round the ground floor galleries of Fitzwilliam Museum. I was very disappointed that they didn't allow photos - the building was amazing! If you're in the area, the Middle Eastern pottery gallery was lovely. Here are some pictures from the day:
After Cambridge we went on to Royston, hoping to see a hole :) The Royston Cave is a man-made cave, thought to have been hollowed out by the Knights Templar who filled it with carvings. It was blocked up, and rediscovered in the C18th. Unfortunately it is only open to the public between Easter and the end of September, and there isn't anything else much in Royston, so that was that. But it was a lovely day - I even had an icecream! All we need now is for this sort of weather in the SUMMER - surely not too much to ask?!
