  8. Pokemon Go fans asked to 'respect surroundings'published at 17:14 British Summer Time 15 July 2016

    Pokemon fever has rebooted and is sweeping the world... and it appears that our offices on Cambridge Business Park haven't escaped the craze - featuring as a 'Pokestop' (that's a location).

    The augmented reality game uses your smartphones GPS. You play by walking around the real world catching cutesy little virtual monsters like Pikachu and Jigglypuff in places near your phone location and training them to fight each other.

    However, it's not going down too well with the business park's security guards - who have been politely turning Pokemon trainers (the public) away.

    A spokesperson for the Business Park said: "It’s great to see people having fun playing this popular game around the business park. For us, it’s all about getting the balance right between people enjoying their surroundings and maintaining a professional environment for all our occupiers."

  10. Cygnet up the swanny after 'run-in' with rowerpublished at 16:11 British Summer Time 15 July 2016

    This little lady had to be rescued after sustaining a broken leg on the River Cam near Bait’s Bite lock.

    Fenland Animal Rescue specialist Joshua Flanagan was called after a member of the public noticed the cygnet had been unable to move from the bank for two days.

    He’s sure the injury was caused by a rower accidentally hitting the four-month-old bird.

    While swans can be aggressive when protecting their young, Mr Flanagan said mum was “a very intelligent bird”.

    “She knew we were trying to help her baby,” he said.

    The cygnet is being transferred tomorrow to a specialist vet in Kent where her leg will be operated on.

    When she’s well enough to be moved, she’ll be brought back to the rescue organisation’s rehabilitation centre in Whittlesey.

    It will take several months before the cygnet regains full use of her leg, but Mr Flanagan’s sure she will eventually be able to return to the river.

    It is frustrating as one of my sons was meant to go in trip today and it is cancelled . My youngest son is coming back from year 7 camp and not sure where we are meeting them, all school buses are also cancelled so parents have to pick them. If you are working it is frustrating.
