    Odd Random Things You Discover

    I was driving on the M11 and saw a Norbert Dentrassangle lorry so decided to attempt the "Red Lorry, Yellow Lorry, Red Lorry, Yellow Lorry" tongue-twister. As ever it proved beyond me. Then, for some reason unbenown to me, I attempted it in a Jamaican/Caribbean accent; and lo-and-behold it was...

    Southend in the Observer yesterday

    Sunder Katwala posts an interesting article on racism. We get a nice mention My scouse accent, though, was diminishing, having moved to Essex in my teenage years. Adopting a second team in Southend United, standing behind the goal, I saw racial abuse of a Wolves player directly challenged as...

    Captains Blog Part 2

    EAST ON.... I know this is supposed to be a light-hearted column so I’ll get Saturday’s defeat against Morecombe out of the way first. What can I say, we’re all gutted with the result and the way we lost the three goals in a game where we once again had most of the play. When we equalised at...

    Sturrock on the radio

    So once we got past his bid to present Gardeners' World, he sounded (if I could follow the accent ) pretty worried about the situation , especially as we can't compete financially with Conference sides thesedays. He pretty much accepted we were manure today and unfortunately I'm not referring...

    Nothing especially exciting there however this bit made me wince: Isn't that tantamount to child abuse?

    Monday Joke

    Paddy and Mick were walking down a street in London . Paddy happens to look in one of the shop windows and sees a sign that catches his eye. The sign said: "Suits £5.00 each, Shirts £2.00 each, trousers £2.50 per pair". Paddy says to his pal, "Mick, Look! We could buy a whole lot...

    Generation Kill

    Well, a bit late to the party but just finished watching all 7 hours and must say I thought that was a colossal piece of work. Brilliantly acted, stunningly filmed, really funny / sad / gripping / interesting. It probably won't get raved about as much as The Wire or various other HBO shows but...

    I'd Have Booed Beckham

    I've been a little bit sniffy about football in America in the past. With their 'marquee' players and unbridled enthusiasm for the spectacular, there's always been a doubt in my mind as to whether they really 'get' what football is all about. That is until now. I'm sure I can't be the only...

    It all started normally. Flat battery in South Woodham Ferrers, clutch gone on an VW Camper in Westcliff another flat battery at Southend Hospital. All run of the mill stuff.
