Hockley Heights Gazette

Hi all - on friday night I cleaned up my room overlooking four lanes of traffic (I won't miss that!) and made my way over to Tom and Isobel's place. I bought along chocolate, two bottles of wine, some beer and some flowers - and all that survives at the end of the weekend are flowers! They are a very musical family (Mark for instance has a number of CDs) and they spent some time on Sat afternoon showing me around (including St Thomas More where Mitchell has been accepted). Sunday was work in the morning - then the choir provided some of the music for OLOR Primary School's 40th anniversary mass. We finished with me cooking Tarragon Chicken, then a few wines, ports and, er, whiskeys. Now it's monday morning and my head is still in Hullbridge! Check the map at right to see how Wickford (arrowed) figures in the Essex area. Cheers Bloggers - AP
