Nobody panic!

I had to go to the house today, so I decided I'd also go into Cambridge to buy a few things I needed for life on the boat.

Once I got into town, I discovered the town centre had been cordoned off by the police because of a bomb scare. The photo shows part of the cordon.

I decided to go to the Grafton Centre instead. When I'd finished there, I checked Twitter, and discovered it was all a hoax and that the town centre would be opening any minute. By the time I got there, it had reopened, and I was able to complete my shopping.
