Holland and his lovely wife Judy Buxton will be our very special guests
throughout the day. Jeffrey will unveil the Laurel and Hardy Blue Plaque
at the Park Inn, Palace Hotel at 3.00pm. We will then adjourn to the
Laurel & Hardy Suites where there is an opportunity to chat to our
guests in the very rooms where Laurel & Hardy stayed in 1952. At
5.30pm we will hold a special 'Laurel & Hardy Celebration' meeting
at the Naval and Military Club. This is a private Saps at Sea event but Sons are invited to join us throughout the day if they wish to do so. There is no charge. Please contact me if you require any further information re travel, hotels etc. Tel: 01702 526 187 or roger.robinson5@btinternet.com |

The Saps At Sea was launched in October 2000 and our venue for nearly 2 years was The Fish and Firkin in Alexandra Road. We had an enforced move when the pub, under new ownership, was no longer able to allow us to have children at our meetings. Fortunately we were able to find a different venue at The Railway Hotel in Clifftown Road. This has been our home for the last 8 ½ years during which time we have seen a number of changes. The Railway Hotel has served us well but has become less suitable recently. The challenge was, therefore, to find an alternative venue which met our primary requirements; it is in Central Southend area, it is available on 2nd Sunday of each month, it is inexpensive and it will be welcoming for our family events. It was quite a tall order, but I think we have found the ideal venue at the Naval & Military Club, 20 Royal Terrace. It also has additional bonuses that are welcome; all on ground level, own bar area in room and cheaper drink. |
