    Teaching RE

    I'm ready for the banter, and have no problem with it at all, but think that this article is very interesting regarding the place of RE in our schools: http://www.tes.co.uk/article.aspx?storycode=6417096 It begins: And it goes on... I think a few on here need to really take stock of that...

    Memory Lane Sandy Anderson v Peter Watson Rd 1:2 - poll now added

    Our second tie is a rarity as defenders are rarely recognised, but it sees two defenders go against each other: the long-serving Sandy Anderson against the classy Peter Watson. Usual rules apply, I'll add a poll once I've given people a chance to put their cases forward and to wax lyrically on...

    Memory Lane Battle of Southend's Greatest Players (Pre-1980)

    Hopefully most of you are familiar with the format, but equally I hope that some of our more recent members join in the fun. Idea is you nominate your favourite player who played for the club before 1980. If someone has already taken your favourite, you go for your second favourite and so on...

    Kris Akabusi Stories

    How do you like my bit of spare time writing ....i wish !! Akabusi scaled the walls of the £756,000 Sussex mansion with all the stealth of a gekko on a Mallorcan shower wall. As luck would have it the window was open. He dropped in and slipped out of his dungerees and let the cool air caress...

    Blocked ear

    Chaps. I am currently suffering badly with a blocked ear. It feels like a build up of wax. I am going away for the weekend so could do with some home methods to relieve me of this pain and build up in my ear. There isn't enough time to get an appointment at the docs, so homebased remedies only...
  6. Lessons in PR by Geoffrey "The Spin" King.

    Lesson Number One: Trying to sell a player? Make sure they know we think he's crap. That's right, you heard. There's no need to wax lyrical about what a hard worker he is, or how much he brings to the team morale. Some of us think he's crap and that's all they need to know. That way, you see...

    SZ Novella - Chapter Seven

    Chapter Seven - A Mystery Wrapped In A Riddle And Clad In A Southend United Scarf Ricey knocked once on the door of Osymandus' cottage. With a loud creak that seemed unnecessarily dramatic, it opened slowly to reveal a gloomy mess, lit only by a handful of candles scattered about the room...

    Interview with an Exile - Part 11: The tables have turned!

    Hi folks, This will be the final Interview with an Exile for Series 1, and I thought I would give some of the people I have cheekily edited on here over the past few months the opportunity to get their own back. So in the series finale, I am answering the questions! Would like to thank...

    Chick Flicks it's OK for guys to like

    All the recent chat about the SitC movie has made me think what "chick flicks*" are acceptable to us males. Over the years, I've seen a fair few of them (that's what having a Cineworld £10 a month cinema pass did for you) and there are definitely certain ones that men can enjoy. Off the top of...
  10. Crikey!!!!!!!!!

    I was sitting at my desk and i felt a tickly feeling in my ear so i gave it a rub and ... i kid you not... a massive chunk of wax about the size of a piece of chewing gum fell out of my ear. it was massive, a dark brown with a hint of burgandy colour and made a 'donk' as it hit my notepad. now...
  11. 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die

    Just heard about this book that was published late last year - some strange choices and (IMHO) some glaring ommisions. That said, I own 293 of these and have heard a further 108 giving me a respectable total of 401. To be honest, dying would be a favourable option to hearing most of the others...
