Susie, Susie, Susie,

  It's not a town, it's a village, and if I inherited a £1 million, we wouldn't move, it has exactly everything we need, it has a library, a post office, a co op, a butcher, a greengrocer a hairdresser and an hourly bus service, it's brilliant, and of course, my wife lives here, we have spoken before Susie, I'm the tall fellow with a new car and the Tom Selleck looks, and I don't recall any Markham or Collins currently in the village, although 300 years ago..................................

Regards,

 Suave, kind, and modest,
Bob

Dear Mr. Boblima,
I most humbly beg your pardon for calling Earls Colne a town :'( But it does sound a bit like you might have died and gone to heaven for as wonderful as the VILLAGE sounds. Along with being suave, kind, and modest, are you also the official village humorist?
I am curious - does anyone know what the population of your lovely village is now?

Dearest Susie,

 On the last census count, Earls Colne had a population of 3,389 persons, and I forgot to mention on my last that it also has a doctors surgery and three pubs, one of which the Drapers Arms, also does bed and breakfast, it also has twp golf courses and a light airfield, built during WW2 by some outfield called the USAAF, from which fighter escorts flew...............the population oF Earls Colne so like it here that in 2000 they purchased through public subscription and some lottery money a field now named 'the Millenium Green, which, along with the two golf courses and the airfield means we are surrounded by green fields, not rows and rows of houses, selfish, but great...................anyhow, go into Google, put in Earls Colne.............

Regards,
