If you ever visit Colchester then make sure you try the beautiful traditional pub, The Victoria Inn. They have outstanding blue roll in their toilets. Next level quality like I’ve never felt before. Really made the difference to drying my hands. Solid 10 out of 10 Thank you, Richard. Keep up the good work
