How our Parents/Grandparents coped with the War.
Here we are it’s DoDtS’s summer saga. Totally non football related, but my attempt to understand how and what our forebears had to endure through the war in a series of extracts from the Southend Standards of the times.

Best time ever to be a Southend fan
As opposed to Bluebloods thread which, whilst no doubt a decent discussion point, is only going to create more negativity. Look people, if there are negative thoughts and vibes then that is what will transpire to be. If you look for a sinister motive or negative point, you will find one. It...- fbm

Owen Coyle
Excuse the rambling, I have a soft spot for Burnley.... Owen Coyle to Bolton. If there ever was a mismatch made in heaven then this is it. Up until a few years ago Southend v Burnley was a regular fixture. Dour and difficult to play away and we'd look to get points off them at home. Yet I...- choggy

Ever seen yourself in a picture where you didn't expect it?
Just had a freaky experience.

Family History & Genealogy research
When my mother sadly passed away in 2005 my sister and I got to thinking about our family history.
