    I remember this quite clearly. I lived in Southend and was at school that day, WE had our assembly, notices and The Lord's prayer. Our school, Southend High for Girls, had quite a few students from Canvey., as did many of our local highschools, both secondary grammar and modern probably did as well. If I recall properly, I believe we had a call to assembly sometime later that day, and our Headmistress, Miss Cowell gave us the news,

    Great words Hattie. It's sad that environmental awareness has been around for many many years and yet the governments do so little because it doesn't benefit them personally. Keep fighting 👍🏻

    So you will be able to take all that carbon trapped in solid plastics and other waste and successfully release it into the atmosphere as CO2 at a time of climate crisis ... congratulations, by far the most stupid idea ECC has come up with ... (thus far)

    A tank engine on a local train heading for Lowestoft was hit on the smokebox by a bungalow carried on a wave of water. The fire was put out and the moon revealed water all around, even covering the tracks on the low embankment. After a while, with the guard's axe and his broken floorboards, the fire was relighted and the train cautiously continued its journey though the rails were covered with water and all in the moonlight.
