Oh woes! A tree is making me depressed by dropping seeds!

Some years ago I was walking in Priory park, which is an absolutely wonderful park and almost certainly the best bit of Southend. An old guy* was walking his dog and complaining about the number of leaves on the ground. I pointed out that there were a lot of trees and it was autumn, but he was unmoved. It was unsightly, untidy and the council should do something about it.

In a different conversation on another occasion, he commented, deadly serious, "I can tell the earth has shifted on its axis because the sun is shining under the peak of me cap. It never used to do that."

*The same guy, as it happened, who used the Mayoral Daimler as an offensive weapon and knocked me off my bike in July 1982, but that's another story.

I remember Hull coming no.1 in the first Crap Towns book largely because it "smells of death".  Well, Eye in Suffolk has gone one better.  Escape To The Country.

Another deliciously scummy story.  I think these two miss school.
