    OOOh nice to see other Pompey fans online. :D

    Not a Pompey fan, but a South coast inhabitant, so will cheer them on. :D

    I enjoyed seeing Portsmouth when I went there a few years ago - the Spinnaker Tower looks good:)

    As I used to live in Portsmouth I think we need to make two things clear .
    Portsmouth has a north and south , the north is pretty grim yet the south is amazing , the views across to the isle of weight and the historic dockyard are well worth the visit and of course not forgeting the stunning spinnaker tower ;) . Its the most populated city per square mile , which is why it probally has a higher number of people trying to get out :D ( i was one of them ,lol). Still back to the competition , I will be entering :rotfl: .
    Kindness costs nothing :)
