headroom in Wisbech


Too much headroom for such as me?
Another run down market place, charities, greeeting cards, how many of these do you need, estate agents for nutty Brits, mobile phones: mind you, if you're on dole you need your mobile to keep you connected! Behind all that Somerfield's, Bingo, a few pubs, 3 Chinese, 2 Indians, a hotel threatened by new building plans. On the other side a church, a castle and a few decrepit houses of originally even daring architecture, now emanating an odour of fresh paint, processed ale, old socks and lavendula. Altogether another sad place with the soldierly charme of a lost forepost , forlorn in the vast and fertile plains of Suffolk's fens.
