St Boltoph's roundabout and the monstrosity they're collapsing it into now. Anybody seen the blueprints? it's a joke! They paint the picture of people sitting happily on benches in the middle of a crossroads, having lunch, children playing 😆 Traffic crawling past, exhausts pumping out fumes for their sandwiches, people beeping and shouting "ffs move" "what ya driving a fkn lorry". Good times!

when Colchester was worth going into, it's such a shame it's turned into a dirty dump

I remember it so well, I was 14 and went to school in Colchester, I'd walk down the lower part of Queen st every day on my way to the train station to go home. It was lovely then, I miss Colchester as it was
