Southend area

Hi there,
just a quick note to say that the Southend shakedown was awesome as usual this year and I saw a few Monsters going past.Can I recommend to all local Monster owners the A127 diner on the A127 (Southend bound lane just before the **** Turpin pub) we went in there yesterday afternoon and was made very welcome by the owner and look forward to seeing everyone there on a Tuesday evening. They are doing a load for bikers there and its an ideal venue for everyone to meet up or go for breakfast at the weekends now the suns coming out ?
Anyone interested ?
