Thanks, Frank.  Sorry about the duplication, a clipboard mistake on my part; 
I’ve amended it in the quoted text below.

The day walking around Cambridge was fun, particularly as we seemed to be able 
to access parts of Trinity without charge – that photo was of the Scholars’ 
Lawn at the back.

I have read Chris Grey’s blog quite frequently, but I can’t do much reading 
about Brexit at the moment as I find it so depressing and infuriating: it’s 
such a waste of time, money and reputation.  The UK looks very stupid . . .

I take a weekly newspaper called The New European in which I can read many 
points of view about Brexit; I think that Chris Grey has an occasional column.

Cheers

Chris
