This is definitely taking me back to what I most liked about The Other Place. Until I landed here there was no longer anywhere I could get hot takes on both #strictly and the #devoWP alongside nice recipes and keeping in touch with old mates. And yet here I am: happy as a pig in the proverbial.

Reading and reflecting on implications for Cambridge. I think in the past I've been guilty of underrating the contribution of day visitors (in general, not for Cambridge specifically) so this has given me food for thought. A really helpful report.
