Posted: Wed Aug 13, 2008 8:45 am Post subject: Found this ...
Whilst 'googling' for family in my family tree .I popped in %6&$ Family St Osyth and was surprised to find this website.
S.O.C.H St Osyth Community Hub.
I found myself on Mrs Mavis Curtain Twitchers Observations .
I have not laughed that much since Vicar and Ivan were having a silly one night.
The comments are hysterical ,especially about the chip shop in Jaywick.
I don't have the proper domain m=name ,so you will have to google it.
I think it may be
Great find Lin. The link works nicely. I've had a good laugh and added the site to my favourites. It's got loads of great little comments and remarks which I intend to steal and pass off blatantly as my own in various forums
Oh dear, the Tudor residents (some with the clinical term of "my poo dont stink", unlike others in the OTHER part of Jaywick.!.!.) will not be happy chippers after this, more so with St Osyth present troubles of uncontrollable yoofs and even the upstepped privates (think about it) who fund new whites....
I wont go on about the delegation from St Osyth parish council who are acting as parish advisors to that other quaint, perculier hidden from public gaze group, the Jaywick Forum, who meet much akin to Nero (or was that sub-zero) who fiddled while Jaywick burnt, while eating H U G E piles of grapes and strawberries and other mouth watering fruits for the fruits to eat..
Oh the expence of it all someone cried, while Nero (sub-zero) cried back, dont worry, its grant paid for - enjoy, enjoy while it lasts, for the doom seeker from Brooklands has "seen the light" (not the 115% increase of Meadow Park either) and sent unto us all the good folk from St Oafs parish council, on a mission (steady vicar) a mission to prove out the existance of a setting up of Jaywicks very own parish council (or was that perrish council)....
The sooth seeker from Brooklands has seen many new things about to become of Jaywick, with the High Sherriff of Essex having visited but two weeks ago, the new naming of Jaywick is to be called Jailwick for those few who need correction of there naughty - naughty ways...

Its a funny old world, as someone who meets groups at our Martello Tower regualarly once said..
I now know some very nice residents of St. Osyth, who listen
(while trapped inside the 6 foot thick walls of the Tower)
to my constant going on about not all Jaywick, Brooklands even,
is bad.
Its when i meet people from outside my community, that i like to listen to there views on all things Jaywick.
As Jaywicks location is neither in St. Osyth, nor Frinton, nor Harwich, nor Elmstead nor Colchester or even Clacton proper, we do get lots who think or write about my Jaywick being Brooklands, and say some of the most dumb things of all time.
Brooklands will oneday be the subject of redevelpment, but untill someone comes along with a shed load of money to build a new estate, elsewhere (maybe nere YOU)
to rehouse the 90% of Brooklands tennented residents in nice new Housing Association properties.
The remaining owned by its occupiers properties, just like yours maybe, are not going to "just go away"
but sit and wait, untill the best deal is achieved by their respective solicitors acting for them, in matters just like you maybe have had to go through to get where you are now.
SO, our Mavis curtain twitcher of St. Osyth, is a funny read, along with other comments of the chip shop near West Buirut..
How upset are those residents who live in and around the Tudor estates when they read of such comments, but smile, they make me do....
The same sort of smile i give when "sane" people buy property near an airport, then complain about the noise of aircraft.
the same sort of people who buy in the Tudors, then realise my Jaywick is just over the field behind them, a smaller, cheaper area, but by jingo, a million times better position to look out onto now one of the widest, best beaches for miles and miles and miles......

Solicitors cannot be relied upon to do the best deal, however if you know the deal you want and that it is achievable then instruct them.
I've always wanted to say this, "a solicitor is a tool" no more no less.
Even as i return into the comfort of my home at the unearthly hour of 4am, i will take your comments onboard amenity.
Of subject a bit, the evening shift at both Clactons Maternity unit, then minor injuries unit,
and nightshift Colchesters A+E, then labour (no not party) unit, all work away with a smile through the wee small hours, while us mere mortals struggle to keep awake.
Its the army of working people that work through the long hours of darkness, that never get a mention, until,
the wee small hours we call on them.
For that i can say that we thank you, one and all........
