Saw this whilst venturing through Hayling Island - tried finding the artist online but no joy. Anyone know who they are?

Anybody know what events are on during the day and night during freshers week? Also, new to portsmouth, so where to avoid and where is good for clubbing / bars? (:

whoever made my double bacon xl meal with extra patty, you must have more than 2 packs of bacon on there. I wish o could've taken a photo it was like a mountain (tbf i said ,6 extra , I'm in no way complaining. I had so much I could make my own bacon fries. But better.

Hiya, I'm looking for some recommendations for a bathroom fitter. I'm based in Southsea. It's not going to be a small job so what someone who's either multi skilled or has other trades they can call upon.

I need the whole room gutting back to brick Tiles up off the floor I need new studwork put in. New plasterboard / insulation going up. Pipes moving Lights moving New bathroom going in (not yet designed, want to talk to the fitter about space first) New tiles going up.

We are flexible on start date, but ideally want something in the next 3-4 months tops.

It’s just occurred to me that Ports Fest hasn’t happened this year, despite their website saying it would return. It has been running since 2000. Have I missed something? Does anyone have any inside info on what’s happened?

Looking for a professional painter to fix the plaster, strip wall paper and paint a bedroom. I’ve asked for some quotes online but no one’s got back to me.

Anyone know anyone?

So a long shot I know but worth a try. We met last night at deco. You were with your friend (Shae?) and a guy was making you uncomfortable and when he left we sat next to you and you asked us to stay so he wouldn’t come back. We chatted for a bit before talking in our own social groups. I wish I had the courage to ask to buy you a drink, but I didn’t want to be another creepy guy just after you told me about the last one. Anyway a long shot but worth a try!

Hi I have got offers for brunel design bsc, bournemouth bsc design engineering and Portsmouth bsc product design and innovation. I'm not sure which to pick I haven't visited these universities. I'm mainly a bit worried about career growth. I have seen that bournemouth has a accreditation of IMECHE and IED. Same as Portsmouth. But the corse at brunel is only accredited by IED I love designing products and want to go into a field that's practical and innovative. I was reading on reddit that people recommend doing ME then moving to ID.

In Fratton just south of the REC park. Can't find anything about it on Google maps.

The News picked up on the one star hygiene rating:

Strudwick came up with a load of dog ate my homework excuses in the article, but of course Madgwick has taken to his favourite platform to claim it's all victimisation. Does he have to be such an insufferable squinny about everything? If the restaurant had been to standard you wouldn't get a one star, simple. For a wannabe hard right strongman he's very fragile.

I assume it's been here a while and hidden behind the fence with was recently pulled down.

Hello, I'm going to start my masters at the uni of Portsmouth this September. I'm looking for accommodation and I was wondering which streets are the best and if there were areas I should avoid.

I mostly found houses with 4-6 rooms to share with other uni students. I found one I like on Pretoria Rd. but I wanna know more about places before I decide.

I'd be happy to receive any advice as I'm an international student and haven't been to Portsmouth before. Thank you so much!

Hey all. Popping to Rapscallions (pirate bar) because it has awesome looking drinks and then Odean cinema. I don’t really know Portsea too well, is there other stuff you’d recommend to do whilst there?

I want to take my three month old on some little outings, so far my plans are pretty much limited to the aquarium. I live in Gosport and don’t drive, but popping across on the ferry isn’t a bother.

Any ideas?

Hey bit of a short notice, went out and bought some alcohol today for tonight and then my mates have bailed on me, anyone want to meet and have afew drinks, 18+ of course and preferably 18-25 but anyone above that is okay, just need to get out and do something tonight and I aint going clubbing alone 😂

Hello all! I’m visiting from the states and was wondering if anyone happened to know about any places open late that’ll have NFL games on. Thanks for any help!

Dog whistle flag has appeared on a lamppost down shadwell road. Anyone fancy taking this down? They would have my eternal thanks! It’s too high for someone to reach without ladders.

George Madgwick's restaurant has got a one star food hygiene rating, clearly taking his eye off the ball.....
