    Just got back

    Well, it's about the only time I get to start a "just got back" thread, so I thought I'd do it. Actually, I got back 30 minutes ago - one of the few redeeming features of tonight. Random thoughts from the game... * The approach to the ground... blimey, it's like something out of Mad Max -...

    Accident on A127

    Between Rayleigh Weir and A130. I'm guessing it's prettyy serious as I've been sitting here for 20 minutes and 3 fire engines, two police cars and a doctor have gone past. If anyone hears anything about it post it here as I reckon I'll be here for a while! :(

    Southend scoreboard on Baker & Kelly

    Just caught up with the latest Baker and Kelly podcast and they're asking for fans to send in parts of their teams grounds that could form a new stadium. I was really pleased to hear an email was read out having been sent in by Matthew Weir, nominating our own beloved scoreboard. Great...

    Spread Eagle yesterday...

    Apologies if this is on another thread, however the Spread has organised a raffle in aid of "Strokebusters" with the prize of a signed Freddy Eastwood picture. Only a £1 for 5 tickets - a worthwhile prize for a worthwhile charity. Make sure you get yourself a ticket next time you are in...

    First Dance Song at your Wedding...

    As per an off-hand comment in a thread yesterday - I thought I'd sound out the Shrimperzone faithful for how far we're all willing to sacrifice our musical integrity for the loves of our lives... Basically, I'm of an age now where I seem to get invited to shedloads of weddings, and I'm...

    If you're bored over the next three days...

    ...and fancy a chuckle, then you can listen to yours truly burbling nonsense over the internet about cricket. I'll be commentating on the West Indies v. MCC game up at Durham, and you can listen to my errant twitterings here. http://mcc.sportslinemedia.co.uk/ I believe you can even send us...

    Essex v. Worcestershire

    Well, here's hoping we do better than we did against Northamptonshire, in which we were extremely fortunate to snatch a draw... The start of play was delayed by rain, but they got underway at 1.40 pm. Worcestershire won the toss and elected to field; Essex are making stately progress...

    Away Travel - City Pick Up

    There has been a lot of chat recently about why the Trust doesn't arrange a pick up from the City of London for away games (particularly the midweek ones). There are many reasons for this but most notably, logistical problems and supposed lack of interest. Well here's your opportunity to prove...
