South-east Essex could possibly be the most vulgar region of England. I have this information from the mouth of Colin who spent his formative years there. I must say that Southend-on-Sea has a certain charm, and that I have very fond memories of the times that I have been there with Colin. This time we went to see Pauline, Colin's step-mother, and Lionel, her new beau, who live in Hullbridge.
It just happened to be Colin's Aunt Marion's 70th Birthday BBQ, and so we dropped in before we set off back to Oxford. I was one of five women who could answer to Mrs Potts. We caught up with his uncle Jeff, and various cousins who were children the last time we saw them, and who now have children of their own.
Tracey's new partner, Dave, is a chicken farmer and a biker. He also doesn't like ot have his photo taken...
Colin spent the morning setting up Pauline and Lionel's new computer, printer, and digital camera. So I hope that you guys are reading this. We hope it won't be as long before we see you all again.
