Hadn't thought of Gunwharf! Will check out the Custom House to see if its kid friendly - been there for our last 2 Christmas do's & can recommend it. Would be very easy for everyone to get to if they need to use public transport or driving, its only a couple of minutes from the Ferry/train station & has its own parking.

Yes that sound good, let us know NikiL if ok for kids and we can then go from there

NikiL

Just called them & they welcome kids but no kids area. Asked him if he knew of anywhere in Gunwharf that had a kids area & he didn't think there was.

There's a pub with a big kids play area not that far from us (just as you head into Gosport), but its about 2 miles from the train station. Trying to search for pubs with kids areas that are a bit more central for everyone & will get back to you later tonight.

Lovely thanks for your help, as I said not too good with this sort of thing - ask me about Southampton and I would be able to help but I think we need it a little more Portsmouth way cos there are some coming from West Sussex

Are you referring to me Mrs Fiona ! ! !


Had loadsa snow here today about 4cm, kids loving it, told them to make the most of it, as we won't get any snow when we go to Oz ! (hopefully !)

Might be

We had a little bit of snow, just enough for the kids to build a snowman and take some photos - like you Calum said ' mum i've got to take photos cos we won't have any snow in Oz'!! Bless

Any news with house - nothing our end, dropped 10k on Thursday so hoping that will bring some people round

No we had 2 viewings at weekend, but haven't heard anything ....yet !
We too dropped the price, and have gone multi agents now,so hoping that someone out there wants to buy our house ! ! !

Basty

Was your 2 viewers from you original agent or a new one??

kdiggers

Funnily enough from the old one, I went into the E.A the other day to tell them we hadn't had any viewings in a month ! ! ! And gave them a kick up the back side and told them we were going multi agents and suprise suprise, they phoned the next day with some viewings ! ! ! !
The other E.A have made a cock up already advertising our house for £10k under the price we told them too ! ! ! ! ! Great start !

It will be brilliant to meet up with all you guys

If we can't agree on a convenient pub the other alternative is to do picnic and drinks on Southsea seafront. The kids could all round around, bring football and kites etc - obviously as long as weather is good - what do any of you reakon??

NikiL - have you had any recommendations from people at work???

Basty

kdiggers

What a fantastic idea ! ! ! Good thinking, I like that,(very Australian !).... but of course as you said it all depends on the weather, if everyone agrees to this we could use the pub as a 2nd option if it rains !

Look forward to meeting you all aswell.

Keely.
