    FA Cup Draw On 1 July

    1pm at FA Headquarters. Details of who our local sides get will be posted as soon as I get them (by the way it should be noted that a full Southend Manor first team squad were back for pre-season training last Thursday). Basildon United have had the dubious distinction of being mentioned in...

    Katie Melua

    If you could put her on fast forward in everyday life, whenever she looked like she might start singing or reach for a guitar, would you marry her?

    The simple joys (that probably only make sense when you're 50)

    It seems that the older I get, the keener I am to preserve what's still good about life in this battered island. An example ... went into a pub in Penzance earlier this evening to check out whether it would be a good place to see some World Cup action in approximately 11 weeks' time. I'd been...

    Those office workers...

    What do you have for lunch everyday? Mine as standard is Jacket cheese and beans. - £1.90 from work. Then we have a little meal deal place which is baguette crisps and can of drink for 2.75. or I go for the tesco £2 meal deal. This is often not enough and is shortly followed by a chocolate...

    Blair: Gaza's great betrayer

    It's more than a year since Israel launched its immoral attack on Gaza and Palestinians are still living on the verge of a humanitarian disaster. So what has Tony Blair done to further peace in the region? Virtually nothing, argues the historian Avi Shlaim Comments (98) Buzz up! Digg it Avi...

    Despair

    It is a shame to now log onto this website and see at least 5 new threads a day that are shaped towards the same issues. Tilson out, Martin out, Finances. The once positive Shrimpers Chit-Chat is a mere needle in a haystack to what it once was. Talk of relegation coincides with a team going...

    Championship Manager on iPhone

    Has anyone got this/heard anything about it? £2.99 for the app, but if was anything like as addictive as FM, my train journeys to and from work everyday would be sorted!!

    Facebook on holiday

    This is the first of two Facebook discussions had whilst at work today, so I thought I'd find out where the good people of SZ stand. One of my best female mates has been on holiday to Malia for the last week, and basically everyday she was updating her Facebook status with things like "is...

    Does The Big C Make You A Big C?

    I'm just in from my daily walk. Despite the cold my face is burning up. Although the wander was a modest one, to Southchurch Park, the seafront and then back home, my body aches all over and I'm far too tired for a bloke of my age to be. You see, people, I have cancer - and I'm fare more...

    Is Cricko Ron Martins Dad

    Given that Cricko defends Ron Martin to the hilt, and will bash all who knock him, I have come to the conclusion that Cricko must be Rons Dad. Agewise, it's about right, they both have crazy hair, and seem to meet up for coffee everyday. SZ Public - You decide!

    What have you learned today?

    Lots of people say that they learn something new everyday, but is this truth or ficton? I have learnt two new things today, that I never new before, they are. (1) To stay off the chat board after we get stuffed 5-2 as the tsunami of negativity is overwealming me. (2) That "Alpen" bars dont...
