    Just reminiscing..................anyone on here go to Southend Sounds '76? I remember it quite well. Some good bands of the time played.......Budgie (Hot as A Docker's Armpit springs to mind), Alvin Lee, Fairport Convention, to name but a few. I think that was the last time live music was...

    Did you know ?

    Just reminiscing and it occurred to me that there are people young enough here not to know things about our great town. I'll start with footie related ones since that was what I was thinking about. Football at Snakes Lane where David Lloyd is now. The home of Hawthorna FC. Nice slope and if...

    World Cup Memories

    Strange as it may seem, I've been reminiscing once again. I was thinking about the England World Cup squad of 1970 and their number one hit, 'Back Home.' There they were on TOTP, all suited in black and wearing white shirts and black ties. We didn't have a colour telly then, so that's how it...

    BOGMISH Rd 1, tie 3 Crowny v Searle

    Haven't time for a big write-up for this one, but our third tie pits two spectacular goals against each other. With home advantage is Billericay Blue's nomination of David Crown's legendary goal against Wigan. I think this might be the equivalent of a fishing trip tale, as every time I remember...

    The Good Old Days

    Grandad was reminiscing about the good old days... "When I were a lad, me mother would send me down to t'corner shop wi' a shilling, and I'd come back wi' five pounds o' potatoes, two loaves o' bread, three pints o' milk, a pound o' cheese, a packet o' tea, an' 'alf a dozen eggs. Yer can't do...

    What have you done with your vinyl?

  7. Suitable Punishment?

    Now, it's approaching the end of my second year at Uni, This time next week i'll be finished. Me and the lads in my flat have been organising a massive blow out for the people we know... Another one of our famous coaches run to Brighton and back, lots of booze and reminiscing on the year past...

    Rasmus - In the shadows

    Just reminiscing, listening to this on youtube and wondered what the SZ faithful's opinion on it was. Nothing taxing, just a poll to brighten up the evening. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azpErXezD8M

    Programmes you loved but bizarrely no one else remembers

    I have often wondered bemused how i have recolections of these great show of yesteryear and yet others do not recolect these. Maybe its because i had no life and whilst others were out in the sun playing i prefered to stay milky and watch any old **** that happened to be on the box at the time...
  10. The jigsaw is complete

    I remember reminiscing with some fans a few years back (when you got used to watching McSweeney and co it was best to reminisce about the good times) and I said that my two biggest disappointments as a Southend fan were that we didn't win the Division 3 Championship in 1991 when we should...

    Well it made me laugh

    No doubt some of you won't find this funny but heregoes: Two Muslim mothers are sitting in a cafe in Ramalah chatting over a pint of milk. The older of the two pulls her bag out and starts flipping through pictures and they start reminiscing. "This is my oldest son. He's 24...
