Owlerton Valley

[Zipme17 18]

I thought i would have a go at writing a story based CJ so here we go.

I hope everyone likes it and constructive critisim is always welcome.

David and Jemma Young had set off early from London, to avoid the rush hour, in the back seat where there young children Martin and Millie. Today was the start of there new life away from the big city. They where moving to Owlerton Valley, a small town called Mossfield Cove.

David has discovered the village whilst on the way to Liverpool on a business trip. Back in London David had been a financial consultant for a large bank, but he longed for the quiet life, he was going to set up a financial consulting firm in the town. Although David didn’t know, Jemma had wanted to escape London rather quickly, she had not decided what she was going to do in the cove, but what she did know was that she wanted to get out of London. Until now Jemma had been a model, having left school at 15, usually working for the shops on Carnaby Street.

As the Young family’s E-Class Estate pulled on to George Street, their eyes all fell on house No. 7, their new home, it was a 3 floor Victorian home, the previous occupants had decided to move Torquay since they had retired and there choice of wallpaper and fittings disgusted David and Jemma. Jemma, however, welcomed the distraction of decorating, with no friends, no job, no demand for models in on the quite shopping stree, and one guilty secret, choosing paint colours would be something to do.

Amy Ford was becoming anxious, it was nearly 8:30am and the new neighbours had not yet arrived, she had hoped to catch a glimpse of them before work. She could only hang on a few more minutes before setting off to Boots, where she worked as a purchasing agent. She enjoyed work, all the beauty products, the view out to the open sea, the relaxing lunches at street café.

Amy had a reputation as a gossiper on the street, the truth was she was lonely; her husband was in the army and had been stationed in the Falklands for several months. Spying on the neighbours helped her forget about the pain. Amy lived at No. 8 and she knew everything about everyone on

George Street

, she had prepared a special welcome basket for the Young family, but it looked like that would have to wait. “Surely those urban types must have loads of secrets”, she thought, but for now she had to go to work.

As Amy reached the end of

George Street

and turned on the High Street she thought about dropping in on her old friend, Jessica. Jessica was married to the local estate agents, if anyone was going to have any prior info on the Young family it would be Jessica. There was another advantage to visiting Jessica, he house was the biggest in the town, on

Sea View Drive

and Jessica always enjoyed socialising with the ‘right’ sort of people.

Oops, forgot the ol' replies.

Brentino: Thanks

jacqulina: Thank you, i think i need to work on shortening them tho, to fit more in.

PathE: Changed the typo, prob some more in this update, thanks for pointing it out.

Schulmanator: Thanks

jayo: It might turn into a town soon, but there are some other villages as well so don't worry.

sc4portugal: Thanks, for people who are interested i used the ploping tool on STEX to place the british houses.

Mike the Mayor: Thanks

cleaner475: Glad you like

MsD: Thanks for dropping by.

Ted and Betty Jacobs had been married for over 40 years. They where a quiet couple who liked to keep themselves to themselves. Ted had been a successful business owner before retirement, he had founded Jacobs Solicitors, the largest law firm in Mossfield Cove. 10 years ago Ted had a big town house in the town centre, before moving to No. 9 George Street in the suburbs.

Then when Ted retired he gave the business to his son, Bobby. The problem was his son was a terrible solicitor, the only cases he had ever won where for wrongly issued parking tickets by a blind traffic warden. After his son took over the business rapidly declined before being bought by one of the major UK law firms. His son had used the money to move to Spain, Ted was no longer on speaking terms with his son.

Betty had been a faithful housewife since they first got married in the local church all those years ago, but she missed her son and wrote to him secretly once a week. Bobby would write back and address the letters to Amy across the road, so not to anger Ted, Bobby and Amy had been teenage sweethearts until Bobby had gone to Sheffield University to study History. Betty would use the time Ted spent at the allotments to read and write the letter. Ted would go down to allotments each day for around an hour.

Ted spent the rest of his time going to see the local football team, Mossfield Cove Albion, but there was a problem, everytime he set off on the walk to the stadium it seem to start raining. Ted Jacobs also served as a member of the team's board. The team currently play in the National Conference Division at Nestle Stadium.
