The heat, the heat
I think it was only last year that I was complaining about the heat. Here we are, back in the season of annoyance that is a British summer spent indoors. It’s not so bad when you can sit outside under a tree like Newton, but not nice at all when you’re stuck in a building with no air conditioning and sweaty legs.
So, how do you beat the heat in the centre of Cambridge?
Go buy cheese. Or at least pretend that you’re buying cheese. Here’s my tip to you. Go to Sainsbury’s and hang out in the dairy aisle. Browse the selection of cheese, all three types: domestic, imported, and manufactured, and let your shorts dry out. Trust me, they need it.
