A very British day in Grantchester

You can't get more British than a trip to Grantchester meadows, Cambridgeshire. On the hottest day of the year so far, it was heaving and no surprise that we couldn't get in the car park of the Orchard tea gardens. Luckily there is on street parking but I do feel for the people of Grantchester in the summer time. We wandered along the river, through Grantchester Meadows, with many others. To finish, tea and cake in the Orchard Tea Gardens. At £10 for tea and cake for 2 people, it's a bit steep, they must be making a fortune with easily 150+ people sat outside on the deckchairs, but for the experience, it's worth it. Dogs allowed as long as they are on the lead, although there there was little cover for a very hot dog.
