...so my sister tells me that Eastenders are doing one of their wonderful 'Southend' episodes. The local paper seems to back her story up and my mum was all, 'I THOUGHT I SAW PEOPLE FILMING YESTERDAY'.

but more than this....whilst they film, the cast are staying at the hotel at the bottom of our road.

aflie, dot, kat. all the best ones.

good times.

going for a run along the front tomorrow morning. i'll report back if i see any filming. might try and get on camera as 'melancholy jogger' or summit. 'angsty exerciser'. 'runner with no girlfriend'. one of those.
