I come from a village called Rayne next to a town called Braintree, near
the city of Colchester in middle of the Essex County.
A semi detached house with three cars on the drive. Mum used to work at a
swimming pool and dad on a building site.
My brother used to sell a little bit of hash but never enough to get caught;
he used to rag it around the town at night in a mark two ford escort.
Six years of Notley high school got me four GCSEs its not the greatest
education but its good enough for me.
And on sunny Sunday afternoons we go down to southend, peter pans
playground it was called back then.
We d all walk down the sea front to the pier for fish and chips. I used to
hang around in arcades playing Mortal Kombat.
So ill sing a song for Southend on radio 2, I think they want me to make fun
of it but I can only tell the truth.
so if youve never been to Essex dont be so quick to knock it because the
reality TV show dont know everything about it.
Well weve all heard jokes about Essex girls and how people think they are
Easy, loud mouth blonde and stupid and baby in the belly.
Back in Braintree college I was in love with a girl called Claire smart
little vegetarian as pretty as the flower in her hair.
on sunny Sunday afternoons we go down to south end, we bunk the train to
the sea side to hang out with our friends.
The rollercoasters tiny its not like Alton towers but with the right ones
sitting next to you, you go round and round for hours.
So ill sing a song for Southend on radio 2, I think they want me to make fun
of it but I can only tell the truth.
so if youve never been to Essex dont be so quick to knock it because the
reality TV show dont know everything about it.
And in my line of work I visit lots of different places. I iron out the
clichés and try and understand the creases.
its good to have some character it makes you who you are and Id rather be
form Essex than be from Buckinghamshire
