Want to impress your friends with your knowledge of the Varsity matches, then just repeat some of the facts below: 

• The Varsity Match is the annual rugby union fixture played between the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, and started in 1872 
• At the first meeting Oxford won wearing dark blue jerseys. Cambridge played in pink, changing to their blue and white in 1876
• The second match was played at Parker's Piece in Cambridge
• It then moved to London and was played in different locations until it transferred to Twickenham in 1921
• The 1878 and 1879 matches were postponed due to fog. In 1919, the players were apparently almost invisible due to fog
• The official Varsity Match was not played during wartime, although a series of matches were played during the Second World War, resulting in nine wins for Cambridge, two wins for Oxford and one draw. All these games were played either at Oxford or Cambridge
• The 100th match in 1981 was played at Twickenham with a three to four-inch layer of snow covering the pitch. It had snowed overnight and the snow could not be removed in time for the game
• In 2013, Oxford's Sam Egerton was sent off for an off-the-ball incident and became the first player to be dismissed in the history of the match

Half of the 3,500 homes which are to be built in phase two of the Northstowe development are to be sold or rented at cheaper than the market rate, South Cambridgeshire District Council has said.

In total, 10,000 properties are to be built on the former RAF Oakington airfield.

Tim Wotherspoon, the cabinet member for strategic planning, said the councillors' decision was "great news", saying it will "significantly make a dent in the affordability challenges that the district faces", as 20% discounts should be available.

When Northstowe is complete it will be the biggest new town to be built since Milton Keynes. It's being build by the government and property developers.
