Not only is it a chick - sorry young lady driving, but that car/trailer is awesome, shame it would rot away to nothing in salt water!

Of course what I meant was awesome in a bodgetastic sort of way - the car/trailer combination has absolutely no future in the real world, but some guy has spent a lot more than a couple of weekends making that thing and you have to admire the idea?

Nah cm3 if you mean post code? Bit more upper class we say 'aint it' and not 'innit'
Yeah still got the Elvis suit and the saturday night fever suit but the waist line spread a bit now so cant wear them anymore. You can try them if you like.

Lol no its not really but it makes it sound good, prob worse now they built new houses at both ends of the village, Eastend over spill i fear.
You know it well then? I'm guessing on your many trips through to stone? To be honest The mill (zara) is a bloody good Curry house now, food is lovely but i agree its a shame we lost a nice traditional country pub the only decent local one there was. But we still got the General lee or Hardys its now called and the Horney toad down by the boat yard, they have some good rock bands there in the summer but no old world charm in either

Must have driven past the mill over a 1000 times since I was a toddler in the early 80's, but ive only eaten in the curry house about 4 times. My preferred method was always to get Posh Spice to deliver to the The Lawrence!
Just in the throws of selling our plots to the Leisure site as Ive grown sick and tired of arguing with them, well that and the fact that I do most of my (non) boating in southampton nowadays. I'm still ever so tempted to by an old shitter and make a return to some easy boating down at the stone.

You have to understand Carl; Jonny has a bit of a fixation about all things Essex. I did initially try and address this problem, but soon realised the time would be better spent sorting the more prevalent issues, such as his fetishes for small boys dressed in netball skirts and chubby oriental woman covered in angel delight.

Ah there you go you have made the connection without realising it....it's all to do with his fears. He is scared to admit his fetishes to himself. And the fixation with Essex must be due to an incident involving a small essex boy dressed in a netball skirt. I think i remember a man paid me to put one on when i was younger? Come to think of it, he was with a chubby oriental woman, but i didnt like the butter scotch flavour angel delight much, strawbury would of been better. I still think paying me a fiver was a bit cheap, it was worth a tenner, at least. But it was fun dressing up though. If it is John i wonder if he still has the pics? Thats me banned lol.
