Speculation was that they were from Glasgow and were preparing to cycle back along the canal. We had control of the seats and tables in any case so all was well. I managed to be the lucky recipient of a tasty free hot chocolate courtesy of the collective CCE loyalty card, although I now feel that I owe Iain McR something. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19626#post-311411 Thu, 25 Jul 2019 12:50:16 +0000 gembo 311411@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>All cafes in cambridge have to have an angle to discourage tourists (very high prices is one way, Don Pasquale prefers arguing with them etc)</p> <p>All rules in Cambridge are all routinely broken.</p> <p>Child sitting atop the millionth cargo bike I have seen in four days ringing bell entire time we were there.

Discouraging kids from your cafe means you're discouraging parents / carers and they will be disproportionately women.
