Moved to Essex aged 2 and grew up there. Went to school in Billericay. You can take the girl out of Essex but you can't take Essex out of the girl. Tony - remember I'll shout you a drink if you're passing through Cambridge and Sue in NZ if you ever get over here I'll meet you in Billericay!!! Daisy (Half Crazy Essex Girl)

Sue Billericay too, not Mayflower! Am about to let my FR membership lapse too. These postings read like the London Liverpool Street to Southend Victoria Railway Line: 'calling at Shenfield, Billericay, Wickford, Rayleigh, Hockley, Rochford, Prittlewell and Southend'. Oh happy days! Daisy
