For 28 long years, the sunny southern English city of Chelmsford was the place I called home. I was born and bred there as we say: learned to walk and talk in the house still owned by my parents, worshipped there in a small church, was married there, and rented my first house there. Chelmsford made me into the man I am now; it will forever be my heimat.
