What to write on the MyCambridge additional personal statement

Any advice on what to write on the MyCambridge additional personal statement?
Applying for the same course (computer science) at all five universities, so the 4,000 character UCAS personal statement already covers the basics.

What does Cambridge look for in their additional 1,200 character personal statement? (I know its officially optional, but still ....)
Is there anything specific to Cambridge that appeals to you?

Honestly, if you have nothing especially to say then I wouldn't worry too much. It is truly optional.
