Easter in Essex

April 6, 2007

The majority of our blog so far tells you stories and shows you pictures of our travels around the world, but has neglected to share with you tales from our home away from home, England.

We live here and work here, but we’ve also managed to be tourists here as well. Here are some highlights…

Upon arriving back to warm England from Finland, we met some good friends from college, Janey and Greg, for lunch on Easter Saturday at Jamie Oliver’s parents’ pub The Cricketers, 15 mins down the road from Felsted, in Clavering (Essex). Unfortunately, about a week later, The Cricketers was burgled and Jamie was offering a massive £150000 reward for the return of all the stuff they nicked! Wasn’t us.

Janey and Greg were staying with relatives in Little Hadham. They have an amazing old English house which has a wall that is twice as old as Australia. Crazy!
