I have had many a nice time in `Still and West` as my daughter and her family live in Southsea. Hope that you enjoy living in Portsmouth, I love to visit there and cannot wait till I go again. xxxxx

The people of Pompey are brilliant too.No side to them,they will tell you anything.

If they say 'my babe' you are in Pompey buy if they call you'my lover' you have wandered into Southampton.

Hi Karen,
Grew up near Prestatyn, son went to Portsmouth uni. Trust me, Portsmouth and Prestatyn are at opposite ends of the shopping spectrum!

lolol,Janice.......i haven't but it must be bad if you think its good here...lol

Karen on the coast - you have obviously never been to Prestatyn lol!!

Welcome to Hampshire, I emigrated 32 years ago from Essex, and can honestly say, have been SO happy in this area.

I live just outside Southampton, and both Gun Wharf Quays, Portsmouth, and West Quays Southampton, are good shopping centres.

All the best Mo

we're lucky cause we have a school on one side of the road...its worse for those that have houses on both sides,parking is a nightmare for them all the time,its just footie days for us

think the malelots would run a mile if they saw me, lol, Karen so glad l've got a drive way.

nightmare traffic,even worse on match days but you get used to it....i'm in by 1pm on a match day otherwise i can't get parked,

Enjoy Pompey watch out for the matelots

The only thing l hate about being back in Portsmouth is the traffic, living close to the eastern road its a nightmare !!!!!!!!!!!

yh Gunwharf's ok but have you been to Commercial Rd? well its really gone downhill in the last couple of years,



Karen x

Well, with the few we have in Hastings, I found Portsmout had some really good ones ... GunWharf Quays, got some real barguins,

Cadbury Outlet ........... Mmmmmm

i think the shops are rubbish...we usually go to Chichester or Southampton.

Love the Still and West,Spice Island good too,

The shops in Portsmouth are a lot better than the excuse of a high street we have in Winchester - beautiful though the city is!!

You must go to the 'Still & West' in Old Portsmouth - not changed much since I lived in Southsea over 30 years ago.

decent shops???? clearly not been to Portsmouth then.....lol


Karen x

Now you'll have some decent shops without having to go to Chester!!

Can you see the Spinnaker Tower?

I convalesced at my sister’s house in Portsmouth last year, lovely walks round the shops.
Only downfall Cathedral clock chiming every quarter of an hour ... day & NIGHT! lol

Hope you are very happy in your new home.

I am waiting to hear if i can do exchange from Milton Keynes down to middlesex soon

Hope weather is alot better for me when i do it.

Glad you all got there safe

Thanks for all your good wishes, must say its nice to be home and a lovely sunny day this morning. Sorry Mrs blue eyes can't see you, lol x
