    I paid with CC vouchers for a family ticket. It really is a fab day out.

    A word of advice, if you're there for a couple of days with kids, you can do "Action Stations" as often as you like once you've bought your tickets. It's like a big indoor playground with buttons, and climbing walls etc. Bear that in mind & you may get added value from your tickets.

    I love Portsmouth, I go to uni there :-)

    Poor you my familys lived there for about 50 years(i.e my grandad and my mum and aunts when they were younger) and all say its a dump.

    By the time you graduate you will hate it, I moved out when I was young and came on holiday a few times when I as a teenager but came back in my 20's and hated it, nothin to do.

    Why not have a trip to Fratton Park, the UK's number one football ground? They now do a 90 minute tour of the stadium which includes a tour of the state of the art facilities.
