I've been giving a Perl course in
Cambridge this week and last night, driven out of my hotel room by the heat, I walked down to the river, bought myself an ice cream, and watched the couples, the tourists, and the punters go by.

You'll find bicycles everywhere in Cambridge they say. And until yesterday evening, I hadn't taken them literally - but perhaps I should. And this picture is a lesson that you should have a camera with you at all times, isn't it? Fortunately, I did!
