Hi, Baz and all Essex folk, To judge by various parental comments, I was conceived in Margaretting, then was born in West Ham, grew up in Dagenham, took 'mental health' days away from school in Abridge, Hainault and the Rodings, and my children were all born in Romford. Does this count? Despite living across the Atlantic and in a lovely town, I look very fondly back on those days, and the many lovely pubs in rural Essex. Michael (in Dundas)

Hi Baz and other Essex Folk' I moved to Essex from Leicester in 1947 and apart from a short time in Cheshire have lived in Chelmsford ever since. I feel I know more about Essex than any where else. I get so irritated with people who dismiss the county as flat and boring. There are so many beautiful places. Rosemary

Hi all, Martin(my Dad) lives in North Weald Bassett too - he was born and brought up in Hainault, then lived in Harold Wood, then Redbridge. I was born in ILford, brought up in Redbridge, then we moved to North Weald about 15 years ago - where my mum, dad and brother Dan still live. I'm now north of Auckland, NZ, after living in Zimbabwe and Botswana and Feering, Essex in between! Good to see al the place names and think of home. Bye for now Sam and Martin
