Ha ha, I lived in Hornchurch for two years. Just stay away from girls that live in the council flats, you can't trust em. Seriously, I know

Oh and if you ever go into the Firkin, never sit at the table by the bar and stairs under the TV. That belongs to the regulars who are top blokes, but are all ex boxers

You have a car meet most Thursday nights down Impreial way if it's not blocked off by Police. As Mark said above we go to the Mad Mile and have an interesting night driving ;o) every few weeks.

Most people I know go to Revs in Sutton, but fuck know how often they go.

I dont drink much any more really since I have a mortgage to pay for so no drinking means a cheap night But we only have one car park space so I only have the Mrs Micra at the moment, which is a bit shoddy after some twat crashed into it. Hopefully will be getting some wheels early next year But let me know fella and I'll meet you somewhere

Didn't know Jimbo is near by and he is on my FB friends list I know Dave (Yum) and Alex (Chatter Cabrio) is also near by, must sort something out with them.

I live about 5min walk from the Witgift Center round the back of the Home Office

Ha ha, never been tempted to go in there fella, where abouts are you?

I don't think Ginge ever wants to speak to me again as I for a reason I can't remember four years ago said something he took offense so we aint really on good terms.. unless he has forgiven me

Cheers fella I actually quite like it where we live, not a bad area, but yeah there are some shit holes not to far from here

Quite surprised about the number of people about the way on here, hopefully I can get back into the crowed again soon
