    As the crow flies: 103.75 from home to the ground (according to Google Earth)

    As the roads take me: anywhere between 125 and 150 miles depending on what route I take down (M11 or A11 closures could make that even worse :disappointed:)

    Until I was 11, half a mile away in Victoria Way and then a mile from Cherry Orchard Estate until late teens 
    Is The Valley a mile from Cherry Orchard Estate, I wouldn’t have thought so?
