Don't diss the K-Park...
Have you seen any essex hos yet?
I hope you had a grand new year. I was thinking of you, but my phone credit date has expired and I'm poorer than a church mouse whose just come home to discover his wife has run off with his best friend and they've taken all the cheese.
But Great Baddow looks lovely!
Hey Mel!
Great pics, so, are you a chamber maid now then?
What's an essex girl? And are you one now?
HAPPY NEW YEAR by the way babe!
You've inspired us, so keep a look out for a blog from us in the future :)

Q. What do they call an intelligent Essex girl?
A. A Tourist
Or in Melissa's case an alien teacher from the Colonies unless she really does teach english history from "English History for Dummies"
An Essex girl goes to the chid support agency to register for child benefits.
"How many children?" asks the officer.
"10" replies the Essex girl.
"10???" says the officer - "What are their names?"
"Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne and
Wayne"
"Doesn't that get confusing?"
"Naah..." says the Essex girl "its great because if they are out playing in the street I just have to shout WAAYNE, YER DINNER'S READY
OR
WAAYNE, GO TO BED NOW and they all do it..."
"What if you want to speak to one individually?" says the perturbed officer.
"That's easy," says the Essex girl... "I just use their surnames"
So Melissa wont have any trouble remembering the school kids names.
audrey: i'm still searching for the essex girl.. i was out for hours today and not even a glimpse! but perhaps they were all spending today trying to find their way home from the random gentleman's house they found themselves at after last nights celebrations..
andy: for a clue to what an essex girl is see my dad's encouraging joke below.. definately set up the blog, its metcha easy and posting makes you feel like a MASTER OF TECHNOLOGY!
mum: i have obliged.. unfortunately for the rest of the week i'll be in school during daylight hours so you'll have to wait for next weekend for more..
pops: lets hope they inherit physical features from their fathers so i can tell them apart that way too..
