A Bit About Us

No.1 – Punting

This is quintessentially Cambridge. Of course this is also done in Oxford but not half as well. This is a great way to see The Backs of 7 of the colleges and their bridges. We have a whole page dedicated to this activity.

No.2 – A Bike Tour

This is a great way to see as much of the city as possible in a short space of time. There is only one bike tour operator http://www.cambridgebiketours.co.uk/index.htm

No.3 – Visit Kings College Chapel

This is open most days with access from the north door. Entry fee is currently £6.50 for adults, however a top tip is to go to evensong at 5pm Mon-Sat 10:30am and 3:30pm Sun, which is a sung service by the choristers. Totally free of charge. (closed August and September) http://www.kings.cam.ac.uk/chapel/

No.4 – Visit Trinity Great Court

Famous for the Great Court Run at Trinity College in under 43.6seconds on the strike of noon on the day of the Matriculation Dinner as performed by Abraham in the movie Chariots of Fire (actually filmed at Eton). Our recommendation is that you do this as apart of a walking or bike tour. Our favourite walking tour operator is http://www.oxbridgetours.com/ as they use current students as guides.

No.5 – Have a pint of real ale in The Eagle pub

You can also read some of the comments on the ceiling in the back room, left by WWII pilots.

Professional detailing services and sale of products to both professionals and hobbyists represent a large commercial presence in places where autos are a primary mode of transport. In the United States alone, the professional and home detailing industry is over $9 billion in revenue.[1]

Components of detailing[edit]
Detailing is generally broken down into two categories: exterior and interior, or cabin. There are products and services that focus on these two areas specifically.

Exterior detailing involves cleaning and restoring or exceeding the original condition of the surface of the car’s finish (usually a paint with a glossy finish), chrome trim, windows, wheels, and tyres, as well as other visible components on the exterior of a vehicle. A wide array of products and techniques are used to do this based on the surface type, surface condition, or the detailer’s preference. Products include, but are not limited to: detergents and acid free degreasers (to break down dirt and soil), detail clay (to remove embedded contaminates), waxes and polishes (to resurface and then improve reflectivity), as well as a variety of applicators, brushes, and drying towels.

Interior detailing involves a deep cleaning of the whole interior cabin. Automobile interiors of the last 50 years have a variety of materials used inside the cabin such as synthetic carpet upholstery, vinyl, leather, various natural fibres, carbon fibre composites, plastics, and others. Different techniques and products are used to address cleaning these.Vacuuming is standard, and steam cleaning, liquid and foam chemicals, as well as brushes may be used to remove stains on upholstery. Some nonporous surfaces may also be polished.
