http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33528 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33528 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/31669 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/31669 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/31157 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/31157 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/30806 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/30806 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/30356 There you'll notice an array of punts, choose one of those and you'll be sure to have a wonderful day.
There's nothing quite as British, historical and enjoyable on a summers day as punting along the cam. Between 6 of you it'll set you back £18/hour or £90 for the day. Just hire on the day or if you're sure the weather will be nice you can pre-book.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/30356 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/29847 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/29847 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/28293 Wandlebury, tended and protected by Rangers and volunteers of the "Cambridge Past Present and Future" charity, has activities for young and old. Right now wade, ankle deep, through flame-coloured leaves in Jubilee Wood and Wormwood Hill, catch a glimpse of ripening blue sloes shimmering in the undergrowth and dodge overhanging boughs laden with berries and rose hips.
Among several events arranged over the next few weeks are a half day dedicated to the secret life of bees and a Hallowe'en storytelling. In November stride out with the Rangers for a moonlit guided walk through Middle Earth, but don't forget to pack your lembas bread.
Wandlebury is anything but a grim fairy tale: the stillness of a misty winter day, the colourful regeneration in spring and lazy abundance of summer make it a year-round spectacle for all ages.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/28293 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22865 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22865 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22550
1. Music can be better appreciated from a great height. Make friends with tall men next to you in the crowd (girls and guys) so they can put you on their shoulders.

2. Try and drink spirits rather than beer if you are deadly keen on getting a decent spot in front of your favourite band. There’s nothing worse than having to leave to pee right before they make their entrance.

3. Construct a timetable of all the bands and acts you want to see before leaving home.

4. Use Spotify to check out and listen to every band playing at the festival. Chances are you’ll be madly in love with at least one band you haven’t already heard of this time next year.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22550 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22549 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22549 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22543
Also - someone has to mention it - Pear Cider at Glastonbury!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22543 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22075
She visited the famous Denver sluices, impressive indeed. But how can she have missed the other attraction nearby, the Denver windmill with its wonderful tearoom and home bakery (where you can buy fresh bread of various kinds), and accompanying bookshop and leather worker?

From Denver, via Downham Market, you can pick up the A1122 which winds its way to Wisbech through a landscape criss-crossed with waterways. And just to the north of Wisbech, at West Walton village, is a great rarity: a church with a tower, but the tower separated from the church, standing 50 metres away. The church was originally built by Normans in 1240 and, with later modifications, is a real mixture of styles. It is quiet and communicates a great sense of peace.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/22075
