I'm sure I asked about this before, I can't remember, anyways does anyone off here live in or near Basildon?

If so, apart from Southend, where do people meet up and that?

Also, on a seperate note, the McDonalds in Vange/Pitsea is crap.

That is all, innit.

Crap as in the quality of the food sold! I know it's McDonalds, but it has to be one of the shittest ones I've ever been to. Plus queueing in the drive thru for ages, some nasty little Fiesta behind us was badly overfueling or something, that plus hot weather plus waiting 10 minutes in the drive thru =

Where is this Basildon Strip you speak of?

And Berkshire is like on the other side of the M25 I live near Heathrow Airport, but I'm often down in Basildon visiting a friend...

I believe with 6 exhausts it must have a 5 litre quad turbo engine of some sort.

I bet you are all well jealous...

Essex County Council confirmed earlier this month work would begin shortly to put up steel bollards and create earth mounds along Paycocke Road's grass verges to discourage cruisers.
