Ely Riverside, Cambridgeshire England
The small city of Ely has it's famous Cathedral and lots of history running through the old streets. But for a nice afternoon in the sun, it's hard to beat a stroll and perhaps a drink along the Great Ouse river. The riversides are lined with old riverboats and a few restaurants.
Lock on Canal near Wicken Fen, Cambridgeshire, U. K.
There are a lot of canals traversing the United Kingdom. To cope with the topology of the land, sections of the canals at different altitudes are separated by 'locks' made of steel. The lock allows boats to change levels from one side to the other.

St Neots is a town and civil parish in the non metropolitan county of Cambridgeshire, England, within the historic county of Huntingdonshire, next to the Bedfordshire county border. St Neots lies on the banks of the River Great Ouse in the Huntingdonshire District, 15 miles (24 km) west of Cambridge and 49 miles (79 km) north of central London.
St Neots is the largest town in Cambridgeshire with a population of approximately 40,000 in 2014. The town is named after the Cornish monk Saint Neot, whose bones were subject to translation from the hamlet of St Neot on Bodmin Moor on consecration of the Priory of St Neots c. 980.
Pilgrimage to St Neots brought prosperity for the town, and it was granted a market charter in 1130. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the town enjoyed further prosperity through corn milling, brewing, stagecoach traffic and railways. After the Second World War, the town and its industry grew rapidly as London councils paid for new housing to be built in the town to rehouse families from London. The first London overspill housing was completed in the early 1960s.
St Neots lies in the valley of the River Great Ouse, partly on the flood plain and partly on slightly higher ground a little further from the water. The Great Ouse is a mature river, once wide and shallow but now controlled by weirs and sluices and usually constrained in a well-defined channel. St Neots developed at the site of a ford where overland routes converged. This was replaced by a medieval bridge, and today there are two further crossings just outside the town, one to the north and another to the south.
St Neots is approximately 49 miles north of London. It is close to the south-western boundary of Huntingdonshire District, and both the city of Cambridge and the county town of Bedford are nearby. St Neots railway station is located on the East Coast Main Line and provides half-hourly trains south to London (London King's Cross) and north to Peterborough. Journey times to London King's Cross typically range from 36 minutes to one hour. The station is managed and served by Great Northern.
St Neots is bypassed by the A1 which links the town by road with London to the south and Peterborough to the north, while the nearby A14 provides access to the Midlands and East Anglia. Regular local buses are provided by Stagecoach in Huntingdonshire and Go Whippet. St Neots is served by the cross country X5 service that runs between Cambridge and Oxford.
St Neots Museum, housed in the town's Victorian Police Station and Magistrates Court, has local history collections covering the town's rich past including a display about James Toller, the Eynesbury Giant, a resident from the 18th century who measured over 8 ft in height. There is also a gallery with temporary exhibitions by local creatives including fine art, ceramics, sculpture and illustration.

100% RELIABLE LEAFLET DELIVERY
Leaflet Distribution (tm) has local leafleters in St Ives, Cambridgeshire, PE27.
We specialise in leaflet and flyer distribution in St Ives
and are a very experienced business in this sector, having been
operating since 2004. We also run a cleaning company franchise called
Nationwide Cleaners and one of our own leaflets goes out with each drop,
so we have a vested interest in ensuring it is done properly. Our
Nationwide Cleaners leaflets also enable us to monitor how many calls we
receive from potential cleaning clients and potential cleaners. Very few
other leaflet distribution companies have this advantage. In addition,
to maximise the response rate we only deliver a maximum of 3 leaflets
through each letterbox. We want the highest possible number of calls for
you (and us!) Most competitors just stack 5 or 6 leaflets together and
all of them end up grabbed in 1 hand en route to the bin! They simply do
not have a vested interest in the outcome of the flyer drop.
Beware of leaflet distribution firms whose only method of tracking is
GPS, as I have heard stories of leafleters walking the streets, but not
actually delivering anything or putting 4 leaflets through each
letterbox! With us, that is not possible, as we would immediately notice
the absence of cleaning calls. Our staff know this, so rogue leafleters
would avoid working for us and instead apply for jobs with our competitors!
We are extremely careful who we hire. We operate a profiling system
based on experience to eliminate unsuitable and unreliable potential
staff, but I cannot disclose details on here due to possibly being
accused of discrimination! As a franchise, we have extensive experience
due to honing and refining our business systems.
leafletsdelivered.co.uk has more information or you can phone Auzair
on 07848 843 307 . If there is an answerphone, please leave a message with
your phone number and he will ring you back asap the same day.
You can email us at auzair@leafletsdelivered.co.uk, but if you have many
questions, speaking on the phone is much faster than email.
GUARANTEE. Since we have been in existence since 2004 and only use
meticulously chosen leafleters, we can guarantee your distribution in
St Ives will be carried out properly. All our leafleters are
experienced and have done many drops for us previously, so there is no
risk for you.
So, if you manage a business and would like more clients, do not
hesitate to contact us to clarify any questions and to get started.
