Marriages, of that time, at Astbury Church were not entirely successful it seems

It started to go pear shaped when the builder put the tower in the wrong place. Had the plans upside down apparently.

A mistake easily avoided if one understands its original purpose!

Would that be the tower or the cummerbund ?

Stephen, I was just thinking of Maldon with all the chat above, there is a nice Italian restaurant, I think it is near Market Hill in town, nice place, have you per chance dined there? Luigi

Have been watching channel 5 (repeat) of cruising with Jane McDonald round South America. It has brought a smile to our faces, she is so enthusiast and enjoying her cruise. Just wishing for better times to get on a cruise

The only one I can think of is Intimo Fresco, which is down the high street. Wasn't over impressed with it when we went and cost a fortune. ...Giovanni

Quite so. I think we missed that one off our joint itinerary. Though I did live in Maldon for a short time......

Gosh Stephen, you know what this means, our paths have never crossed. We have nothing to carry on adout dining out.

Do you remember 'Wheelers' the chippy at the top of the high street

Yes, I had a guess that was the one. Nope, can not remember the chippy, if fact, I can't remember Maldon. I realize why, I have never been there.

So still our paths have not crossed.

You can try and sell Maldon to me as to why I would want to visit it. I am sure there must be things going for it other than the mud flats
