Walk to Cambridge American Cemetery (30th May 2007)
After handing in my final project report, I wanted to do an afternoon walk to get out in the fresh air. I hadn’t visited the Cambridge American Cemetery before, so I incorporated it into a circular route north-west of Cambridge.

CUHWC Robinson formal (23rd January 2007)

Westminster College (1st October 2006)
This year my room is in Westminster College – it’s just off the Queen’s Road / Madingley Road mini-roundabout for anyone who wasn’t sure. Renovation of some staircases in Christ’s during the Bradwell’s Court redevelopment meant they had to look elsewhere for fourth-year accommodation. Here are a few photos of the College and my room, taken the morning after I moved in.

This was followed by sunrise-watching on Castle Mound (no photos), a trip to the University Library (again, no photos), punting along the Backs, and fajitas in Alison’s kitchen.
