Midweek in Cambridge

We've had some rare and quite precious time to ourselves sans kids, so have taken the opportunity to visit places we've always wanted to go.

Whilst Miche is a little disappointed that we "didn't come away from Cambridge with anything", I feel quite the contrary. Not only did I capture this photo, I'm also left with a nagging regret that I'll never be a peer to the great, good and beautiful of the studentry. And on top of that, I now know quite a lot about the anatomy of the hagfish, courtesy of the University Museum of Zoology.

It's a most amazing, primitive creature with four hearts, two brains and eye spots so simple that they provide beautiful evidence of evolution.

Now, back to the grind...
