I picked up two quotes from my recent travel to Cambridge. Here goes:
“I’ve seen people who been to Cambridge some fifty years ago and just return now, and they always said how Cambridge doesn’t change at all. I’d like to think it’ll be like that for another fifty years.”
Ramon, the punting guy in red jumper.
“In Cambridge, even the ducks are pretentious.”
Me, after a conversation about special permit to cross university lawn and after I saw a duck with a finely shaped arch as its wing.
