I love Southend Games... its a great family night out. Gutted though cause I am going to Ireland with the Pipe Band for the European Championships. I will enjoy that though, just sorry they are on the same weekend!!!!

Hope everyone that goes has a good time.

Best part of Southend Highland Games is the MAD GUY on the mic.

Would that be 4th Gen??????

Evening Event - 5.30pm to 10pm at Hotel Park behind Argyll Hotel Southend.

Heavyweights and Solo Piping + stalls.

Resume of the Highland Games:- It is very child friendly, with lots of races of various types for the under 14's. Heavy weight and Junior classes including ladies races and broom throwing, and a combination of Kintyre Pipe Band doing the march on and playing during the evening.

There is also a licensed bar, with Frances at Muneroy Tearooms open throughout the evening for meals, snacks, teas and coffees, again with a full licence.

Aye, that'll be me....and now I will have to act like a mad guy on a mic....maybe swing it around my head, by its cable, like a lassoo...letting the flex get a bit longer each time round...maybe sit up on the football goal crossbar making daft comments about how the committee managed to keep the midgies away!

Forecast is good...should be a great night....despite the man on the mic!
