Things to do in Cambridge when you're dead

[j4]

Anybody have any suggestions for interesting things to do in Cambridge on one's own at a weekend? Preferably things which are cheap, and absorbing enough to take my mind off other things.

I would like to think that I would get a digital camera and cycle to places with crumble down walls and ivy on the turn, or patches of water and take pictures in this glorious early September light. Or find a dog, and walk it to death, and then cook brownies and invite people around to watch a film on the MEGATASTIC television.

In reality, I would spend far too much time on the internet, worrying about mundane tasks that I am not doing.

Yeah, my fallback option is spending the weekend oscillating between wasting time and money on the internet, reading Saint books, drinking too much Coke, and trying not to cry.

The photo-taking idea sounds good. Especially since I have Proper Camera to get to grips with some time. Maybe I will do that.

Standing invitation still stands, if you need it. Only prob is that I'm away Friday night but will be back Sat morning.

I know about Friday night -- I was sort of invited too (at your BBQ) but I think I was invited as Jan-and-August. No idea if August's going.

Thanks for the standing invitation. Will bear it in mind. But I may well just end up hiding under a rock. :-/

Typical bloody cat-lover. I'm surprised you didn't suggest cooking the poor thing, too.

I'm off to the Shackerstone festival (http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/ChrisSimmons/steam_and_canal.htm) with friends, otherwise I'd suggest a meat. I'm afraid my solution to needing something absorbing and brain-deadening over the last few days has involved Albert Ayler being played at high volume, beetroot being boiled, and watching Father Ted for hours. This may not be helpful. Sorry.

I'm a dog lover, not a cat lover! I'm training my two to bark, quite succesfully in the case of Seven. He now emits a miaooof when he wants attention.

Wing Walkers? Is this with or without the blue liquid?
