Tracey Corderoy, Shifty, Sam and myself have had a wondrous weekend at the Cambridge Literature Festival!
We were wined and dined and lucky enough to stay at the beautiful Corpus Cristi College - one of the many famous colleges steeped in history and elegance - and they also do a mean full english breakfast!
