An Introduction
It was mentioned to me several times, that if someone did not write the story of Cambourne then memories might be lost forever despite the short time it has existed.

I was reminded of that earlier this year when listening to yet another planning application at South Cambs District Council where the final go ahead was granted for another 950 homes, a Councillor in the Chamber suggested that as so much had happened in Cambourne over the years it needed a book to be written and that "Roger" (as he looked over to me in the public section) "might be the right person to do it".
It
was first introduced to the unsuspecting Community of Cambourne on 11/11/11 and will almost certainly be added to in years to come with your contribution.

A Radio Introduction

The Author of chapter 1
Roger Hume may not have ever written a book, or even been able to write a book in the normal way.
Educated in Cambridge sounds good, but the Priory Primary School and Netherhall Secondary School followed by the Cambridgeshire College of Arts and Technology would not be top of anyone's list, but he did work for Cambridge University for 37 years
For him it was an opportunity to remember 2011 in a more memorable way than his health in that year.
