Fitzbillies #2

Cambridge is a quaint town but boy oh boy does it have some good coffee places. One (or probably THE) most iconic is Fitzbillies with their famous Chelsea buns as the beautiful wall painting announces upon entering. I have to say, Chelsea buns are not really my thing - sultanas just seem very sticky to me but I'm sure that to most people who do like sultanas they will live up to their reputation. Me and my friend Connie had a cheeky coffee break where we forgot about revision (working hard or hardly working???) and indulged in some delicious cakes and iced lattes, also known as the most summery drink ever.

Uni update - I'm still around to tell the story

From the comfort of my home, I can now say I've survived my first term at Cambridge. Mind you, they're intense 2 month little suckers that drain the will to live out of you but I wouldn't trade the memories and experience for all the sleep in the world.

Okay then, shall we start chronologically and then I'll try and coherently word my opinions at the end? Right, let's begin on the 3rd of October, a fine sunny day in London...

Grantchester day trip

Wanting to escape my desk and the same pinboard from where my to-do-list stares back at me 24/7, I took my bike out for a countryside test drive and had the most relaxing hours in the sunshine since October. Highly recommend for some precious quiet state of mind.
