<p>Cambridge rains a lot AND the sun sets at 4:30 in the winter... no joke. Everything closes by 5:30.</p>
<p>^^^^^^^^^</p>
<p>That's BS! The sun may set at 4:30, but shops are open later than 5:30! Large shops are open until 9 or 10 and restaurants/clubs/pubs are open late. It's not as lame as people may make it out to be.</p>
<p>I'd choose Cambridge. But it depends what you want from a university.</p>
