    Question Anyone ever had a book published?

    I have a long held ambition to write a book and am now finally starting to do something about it. My theme is not unique, it will be on getting to the 92 current league grounds, but I am not anticipating writing a best-seller, more that I want to get something 'out of my system'. I had always...

    The Clock Ticks On

    From Mark Steyn: The world divides into those who sincerely believe in that "Coexist" sticker and those who think it's a delusional evasion. After all, if it weren't for that big Muslim crescent "C" at the front, you wouldn't need a bumper sticker at all: That peace-symbol "O"? It's Muslims...

    Question Mascot experience?

    I'm considering paying for my little girl to be a mascot at one of the upcoming home games sometime soon, just wondering if anyone has done it before, what's included, how much it costs, can you pick who you walk out with etc.... Any info would be appreciated.

    A few tips on predicting

    I thought a few facts might help towards successful predicting, or perhaps not. :nope: Firstly as true Southend fans we are taught from the beginning of our supporting careers, that Southend are world beaters and that Col Ewe are the worst club in the country. Hence predicting is easy Southend...

    Oven cleaning

    The first of many random posts coming up no doubt! In our new place, got a lovely oven but needs a clean! Local suggestions with rough cost would be lovely! I tried Cookerburra but they wanted 84 quid which I thought was a touch expensive! I'd say 50-60 is more reasonable! Cheers Kev
