I love love love Cambridge! I would come to meet up, as it's only about 30 minutes on the train from me, but I'm away at a wedding for that weekend!

If the weather is nice (it's been gorgeous up until today, when it chucked it down!), go along down to the river. It's so lovely to sit there in the sunshine, and there are a couple of pubs right close by... last time I was there in the summer, they were letting people take their drinks outside to the riverside. I forget what they're called, but you'll find your way to the river no problems, if I remember correctly, it's signposted, but if not, anyone will be able to tell you. It's a really popular spot with the students in the good weather, so I'm sure you'll find some randomers to chat to!

Have a wicked time!

Led a day trip into Cambridge once, nice place. As Lauren said, go to the river maybe even go punting-its a great way to see Cambridge.
Some nice buildings too.
