Cambridge - Saffron Walden (bis)

Some sun after days of snow...
But on a young beech one lonely stalactite persisted

Very windy, very cold. No food until Saffron Walden, but then, asparagus and salmon quiche... YUM. And I wrote letters, I felt so good.
spoke to no-one this time
Oh yeah, I bought the Guardian, and the guy, taking the coins, said in amazement: "your money's cold!" and he laughed. People usually keep their money warm, that's a fact.
