Witham is a shite hole.
Yes. It was. It was concentration style council house after council house and the Tesco was hideous. Cressing Temple Barns was quite genteel in comparison.
A very odd thing happened there though. While I was suffering Tesco My husband was waiting in the car with Nobby the chihuahua pup and someone admired him and thought he was a girl because he had a pink collar and lead, (Nobby. Not my husband) told him off for it, vanished for a few minutes and then came back and presented him with a blue lead because Nobby "couldn't possibly have a pink one"
He accepted it graciously (I'm not sure if I could)
Maldon was quite nice at the estuary
