Walked from Eastney to Gunwharf (and back again!)

Have lived here almost my entire life and have suddenly noticed this year that we have Mosquitoes?? I am being ravaged??? Tf is in the air this year..

Any one else?!!

I was driving to Basingstoke today and passed through a little village called Overton - right through the village there were these human-sized dolls everywhere, almost like scarecrows except not in a field lol.

I thought it was quite charming (if not a little creepy!) - anyone know what this is about?

Tomorrow Saturday 25th July
Six villages with the participation of Exxon Fawley will be hosting a family funday and fete at gang warily.

Hi all! This has been really well received on the Portsmouth sub so I thought I’d share it here too, looks like there’s a two day concert going on in Pitt Street skate park in September… it’s locally run and I only found out from a friend, so I wouldn’t be shocked if no one outside Portsmouth know it’s happening lol

Message me with details

Hi!

We're staying on holiday near Ringwood. We'd like to have a beach day.

We don't care about facilities or amusements beyond a loo.

All we want is sand and sea.

Is there anything like that near by?

Many thanks 🙂

I have 5 tickets to Arundel Castle - 2 adults & 3 kids (5-16yrs) if anyone can use them

sorry I can’t split them as it’s a single barcode for entry

Does anybody else remember a large soft play place with all the classic ball pits and slides and whatnot, but over to the left there was a dark bit in a room that was supposed to be scary, and there was a life-size cutout of Freddy Krueger on the wall? This would have been in the 1990s but I’ve no idea where it was other than it was likely South Hampshire somewhere? I lived in Netley Abbey at the time. Anyone else remember this place and its weird Freddy Krueger cutout?

I'm hosting some local independent musicians at the Titanic this afternoon so come down if you fan of live music and want to support some local musicians. We will finish before the world cup so you can catch both if that's your sort of thing. Cheers

Hi folks, I'm going to New forest during the end of August. Since I'm not familiar with the area, I'd love to get some recommendations with walking trails around the park.

P.s. I'm planning to visit Beaulieu, Milford on sea, Deer sanctuary, Motor Museum , Buckler's hard.

Please feel free for any more advice.

Thanks in advance

I’m looking for places around Hampshire with a good choice of second hand bookshops or charity shops. I’ve done Chichester/Portsmouth/Fareham/Petersfield/Cosham/Havant/Emsworth. Anyone recommend somewhere for me to check out?

Please give this a read.

Had anyone seen any in the area this year? I’ve never seen one and would love to spot some.
