And here's a fenland photo I took from the moving train. Any photos this time will have to be on the outward trip as I shall be returning after dark.
By the way, I'm being very considerate of TV licence fee payers. My travel expenses to get to BBC Cambridge (above) will consist solely of my off-peak return ticket: £15.40. Compare that with the cost of hiring a car, or even the cost of fuel for a pool car, were one to be available. And using the bike means no taxi fares either.
