[@Seagull-sq4wh]

I was brought up in Thundersley and regularly visited Southend as a child/ young person. I moved away in 1978 and have only returned once in over 40 years. The seafront is beyond all recognition to me now and the pier off which I used to fish is almost alien to me. There was a small station at the pier head for the trains which back in the day looked a little like London Underground trains but in green and cream livery.The Kursaal was a popular entertainment venue and I saw Deep Purple and Sparks live there.The pier used to have a theatre and arcades at the end and was lit up so that from the shore it looked like a ship. The cliff side leading up to pier hill had illuminated scenes from fairy tales and was known as Never Never Land and the foreshores had illuminations almost as good as Blackpools. At the shore end of the pier was a mock up of the Golden Hind ship which you could visit and a mechanical scene of a pirate being tortured with a swinging axe! Not so PC really.I liked Southend a lot and have great memories of and am glad see it thriving and developing. Thanks for making the video Regards SW

Thanks for the update on Southend, Tim. I was born and lived there 60+ years ago when Adventure Island was called Peter Pan's Playground and on the other side of the pier was a replica of Sir Francis Drake's Ship Golden Hind. The beaches in those days were shingle, not a grain of sand to be seen anywhere. But the pier is still there to be walked along, which I recommend, especially when the tide is in and it feels as if you are walking on water. I'm strongly tempted to make a return visit for old times sake.

[@andywands5661]

Hi Pete. My parents used to take my sister and me to Blackpool during a Scottish bank holiday known as the September Weekend. I think half of Scotland were in Blackpool on that weekend every year. They moved us to Essex to be close to London for work reasons in 1988. Thankfully they picked Southend on Sea. I've been here since then....34 years now. I love my town. How is Blackpool now? What's it like mate?
