Default The Bull, Corringham

A silver classic parked out the front of the Bull pub in Corringham about 11pm Thursday night. I was fishing in the lake behind, and heard what i thought was a scooby going up and down the road. When I left the lake it was in the car park. If it was you going up and down the road......cool sounding dump valve, echoed all around the lake when you changed gear.

are you/were you local to Stanford and Corringham? I used to drink in there, but now just use the lake every now and then to relax a bit. Haven't actually drunk in there for about 8 years!
The White Lion was always our friday lunch time haunt when I worked at Coryton, bit of a weird pub really, but food was better than the Catcracker!

few mates lived around that way and fobbing. i went to college at palmers and the white lion was our unlocal local

we popped to the bull every now and then.

white lion was great. we could walk in at the top door and by the time we'd got round to the bar at the bottom our drinks would be ready think we went there a bit too much

Where abouts in Coryton do you work? I was in the Mobil/BP technical centre for about 8 years.
