Yeah I've been to Southend - many times I'm almost sad to say! They do have a very long pier (longest in the UK I understand - it sticks out a mile!) whose claim to fame (in my opinion) is that it featured in The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.
Personally I preferred Benfleet for seaside stuff, just a couple of miles up the road - but Southend is seaside even though sometimes it is just mud flats - very reminiscent of the Humber estuary Steve -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Brennan Sent: 14 June 2007 12:08 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [LU] fixtures for nonwebbies > ------------------------------ > > Message: 3 > Date: Thu, 14 Jun 2007 11:11:22 +0100 > From: "Steve Gillen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Ooooo Seaside trips...... > > Southend Have you been to Southend? You have to use 'seaside' in it's very loosest sense when describing this jewel of Essex! Although given no one checked my ticket, no one asked to see a membership card, and no one told me where to sit when I went last season, perhaps I ought to go again and do a scouseratthechampionsleaguefinal and save myself a few quid.
