# Queens college mathematical bridge in cambridge

cf220MP

from the wiki:
The Mathematical Bridge is the popular name of a wooden bridge across the River Cam, between two parts of Queens' College, Cambridge. Its official name is simply the Wooden Bridge.

The bridge was designed by William Etheridge, and built by James Essex in 1749. It has been rebuilt on two occasions, in 1866 and in 1905, but has kept the same overall design.

The original 'mathematical bridge' was another bridge of the same design, also designed by James Essex, crossing the Cam between Trinity and Trinity Hall, where Garret Hostel bridge now stands.

another new addition: 280MPon the backs of the river looking at the wren library of trinity college, and its bridge

# Nice bridge, dood!
The commentator on the ITV UEFA Cup highlights just said: "He has thundered that into the meat of the wood!"

(about a shot that hit the crossbar)

My jaw is still slack at that.

# Well, yeah.
I had to teach myself to dislocate my own jaw in order to accommodate all those enormous horse cocks in my gob.

(Is that the kinda thing you were angling for?)

# Ah, tourists...
When walking through town in full suits and gowns for matriculation, by about half way there we decided to mob the groups of tourists with cameras to see how they liked it. So glad I chose an obscure*, far away college.

*until our university challenge team marches to victory this summer of course! of which I am a proud member.
*ends gloating*
