Southend Memories

Jump to:-

More categories will be added, such as in the town, out of town, at work, at play, etc., once we have compiled pages from work sent in. This 'Southend Memories' page will allow everybody to learn more of the town with the human element, and would invite contributions from readers. They don't have to be novels; in many ways, a few paragraphs can provide a lot of information, giving a snapshot of pre-nanny-state life in general and working environments in years gone by.
