I put it in Route Finder and it was 3 1/2 hours from Swindon. So it's probably 3 hours or less.

On a good day it will take about 2 and a half hours to get to cambridge from swindon.
The only thing is, if there's an accident on the m25 then you're fooked.

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious shit...

I'll be gentle.
It's quite simple. I play shite music (loud so no one can sleep.) I don't stop (Unless I need a piss) I don't let people smoke (But you can drink) I take the petrol money when we get there (So you're stranded if you don't pay up) and that's about it...
I have nothing to base this on, having only met Hertha twice, but I reckon he'd have good taste in music...guitar stuff, mid to late 70s, that sort of thing.  |

Nooooooo, avoid the M25, its much further and definitely no quicker. I used to live in St Neots (20 miles west of Cambridge) and I regularly did St Neots to Lyneham (or Chippenham) using the A420/A34/M40/A45 (Northampton) then cross country through Rushden. Normally about 2 hours 15 minutes. Alternatively go up through Bicester/Buckingham/MK/Bedford but IMO the road isn't as good. |

I go the MK/Buckingham/Bicester route to every Swindon game and whilst the road isn't that good, i generally do it in 1 hour 40. Cambridge is about 30 minutes from here, and whilst i don't exactly know where Histon is, it's only a few miles from Cambridge. Don't do the motorways, cross country is quicker. |
