The worse 3G pitch in Essex we have played Ravens legend twice in 2 years and come away with 4 serious injuries. The pitch should come with a warning.

That's where we walk our dog, its near home, it's a great place to walk him with the woods behind lovely little walk. And the people walking their dogs there are so nice, until now we came across lovely people as quite often we leave our quite hyper 8months border collie off lead and he is a handful but people are understanding. Not only that the park is very clean compare to highland park of course it is smaller and easier to maintain but it seems people clean up their mess in this park which amaze me and happy to see that people are responsible about their pet but such a shame we can see rubbish lying around quite often

What a beautiful day for a long walk with the dogs. Melbourne park is perfect for it, we as good as have the place to ourselves, and can almost feel a little lost in the woods sometimes. Lovely time had by us, Barney & Betty are exhausted, and if anyone knows Jack Russells, knows thats not an easy thing to achieve, lol
