Cambridge Punters


(Above: Kings College - the most beautiful (read: you have to pay if you want to take a look) colleage in Cambridge.)

The word "punter" is a universal term for almost anything.

Punter (noun) – somebody who is placing a bet/betting

Punter (noun) – client (as in a patient)

Punter (noun) – customer

Punter (noun) – the person who rows those second class gondolas (like the ones in Cambridge)

Punting (verb) – as above, this can mean you’re either betting or rowing a “gondola”

I shall be doing the latter once the weather gets warmer (and will endeavour not to fall into the river).
