Welcome to Bassingbourn Book Cafe

What's on offer?                    



  • The Book Cafe has over three thousand books to lend, with the latest popular fiction, a large children's section, a local history section and the ability to order almost any book you might need. 

 

Our popular Cafe is a great village meeting place.  Two computers with optic fibre connections provide fast Internet access for and to the community.

  • Moral indignation is jealousy with a halo

 

H G Wells

  • What is morality in any given time or place?  It is what the majority then and there happen to like and immoralitiy is what they dislike.

 

A N Whitehead 

  • Morality is the custom of one's country and the current feeling of one's peers.  Cannibalism is moral in a cannibal country.

 

Samuel Butler
