Close To Paradise

I used to visit there as a child with my family - remember the 'lake' and rope-pull swings like it was yesterday.... (it was actually about 25 years ago!) 💚💛

But it's Essex! Ya gotta love it hun... 👍😘

@leelee101 Essex... Dengie... Unfortunately the smut you find over the river to your bit is a little different here. Take the people away... And well. Little old Essex would be a fabulous place. Haha

@leelee101 I lie... Just the orange, chavy, stupid people :3 I think we'd be safe ;)

@Odd lol Basvegas is the epitome of sin

@Odd haha! It ain't great is it! 😂 my bit isn't fantastic, but it's not so bad I suppose. At least I can say I live on an island...makes it sound a bit exotic... 😂😂👍❤😘

@leelee101 I like on a peninsula... Unfortunately I'm attached haha. Although we are extremely secluded probably more secluded than Mersea?

@Odd nah I'm more secluded... No-one comes to dear old Canvey on purpose... 😂❤😘

Lol @leelee101 Essex is ridiculous. The further west you go, the worse it gets. Eastside mofo ;) haha -attempts gangsta sign-

@Odd hoho don't go there hunny... 😂😂❤

@Odd @leelee101 I'm fro Romford 😳😱😱 You don't get much worse!! Lived there for about 23 years of my God-forsaken life!!! Ah well, I'm out now 😂😂

@MrsS haha. Your right you dont get much worse... You don't even get the pretty stuff I do. 😔

@Odd We had lots of people staggering around and throwing up in town though! Quality.... 😂😂😂

@MrsS lol further west you are in Essex. The worse it gets, clearly theres some form

Of black hole just inside the M25 that takes you to hell... Clearly ugly sins been escaping.

@Odd It was pretty grim! I hardly ever go back (if I can help it!) Sadly, I was a big part of it all, but that's a story for another day... Another post.... 😚

@MrsS haha... Youthful mistakes and lessons 😘 I've got a few of the yet to come... I hope.

@Odd Lessons? Oh yes, too many though (I wasn't a quick learner on that particular front!) 😖😉☺
