Default 10 miles for a Offy!

Southend has 250,000 people living here. We used to have a Offy on every corner. Threshers went last month and now all the independants are closing. I had to drive around for 20 mins to get a good bottle of vino and some beers! Is this happening every where?

Threshers went bust a few weeks ago. However up here in chav central we have a bargain booze every 3 hundred yards. I swear I have never seen so many offies in a 2 mile strip of straight road

Most of the chav's can't afford drink and driving so spend the evening down lakeside street racing instead of southend sea front like the old days.

Plus its easier to stick a couple of birds in the car and drive them around than trying to get alcopop's

must say southends changed the last couple of times i've been down since when I used to come down when I was younger, alots shut down and there wasn't as many boy racers on a fri/sat night cruising....

Hey poop coupe, I saw your car parked near the front. I was staying a night at the travelodge and i spotted your car. I was with my bird she gets free travelodge vouchers from work.

I went shopping to iceland for some food/snacks. As you mention it you are right, I did not see any offies in town.
