To disown DD or move to Hampshire immediately?

[Lovecat]

She came home from first day in Y1 at (Greater London) school yesterday and said "Teacher arksed me"...

My inner pedant is appalled.

DH's reaction is to want us to move "back" to his neck of the woods so she grows up speaking proper, like. Is he over-reacting?

Oh and my mum was a dept head at higbury college!

Oh my god Harrison!!! DS at Orchard Lea Infants

Yes Prague which became something else and has now closed again. I live down the road from Fareham Train stsation.

Loolop get yourself to our local thread with Sally - but read it from the beginning its bloody mad!!!

Wohooooo!

Yes, I was in Fareham (my folks still are) - Catisfield really.

Fareham Park Juniors when smallish (after my Kempshott days!) Worst days of my life I have to say... a complete nightmare of a school.

then Portsmouth High. Used to commute down on the train every day...

Love this thread!!!!!

My uncle used to lecture at Highbury loolop!

oooh mumbar- I live just off gosport rd under the viaduct off Market quay rdabout-spooky

My mum was environmental health and safety mellow!

Think that is now Oak Meadow? The school in Tewkesbury Avenue of Fareham Park Road? (MRSMellow)

Yeap very close to me!! Your by the Creek then loolop?

Ah, my uncle was some kind of business studies part time thingy...

Loolop find our local thread you definatly need to join our meetups - Mindyou we've probably passed each other in the Shopping Centre!!

there's enough of us here from shirley for our own thread

Yup, that's the one, mumbar Think they changed the name once they'd realised quite how crap is was, and it got a full revamp/rebrand! S'pect it's lovely now...

Yes right by the creek!! dd goes to pre-school in town but am tempted to look at the new Montessori. How do I find the local thread?!

Oak Meadow very good school now. Better than some of my other local ones surprisingly

Think you go to registration and join local mumsnet portmouth/IOW.

PMSL - half of Shirly are on here!!! Can I join you to being Fareham!!!

OMG, I used to live just under the viaduct by MQ roundabout. I also know people who have kids going to Harrison and OL.

Whoever knew an ex lecturer at highbury, I'd like to apologise for my regular abscence for sickness being down the railway pub and shagging my then bf at his house

Prague £10 all you can drink on a Thurs night, ahhhhhhhh the memories.

See, I remember the pre-prague junction days. Didn't it used to be a cinema or a bingo hall or something??? [vague emoticon]

You can remember it emmyloulou after all you can drink

They are building a Tesco on the MQ now.

Vaguely then going over to the kebab van across the roundabout, some nights I don't knwo how I got home

Oh the kebabs!! He's still there but at the train station now!!!

I know I get one when I am down that way for a night out or what not yummm!!

Sabs Kebabs!! I used to live by fareham(tertiary!!) college so was a lovely stagger walk home from Prague! Oh and anyone from soton ever go to lpu's at soton guildhall?!

Hehe @ OP. My DP says baRth aRsked paRth etc...

Drives me nuts. More so that I seem to be copying without realising

Loolop if you go to last 15 minutes and stroll down the Pompey thread is in the Mumsnet local section as its being written on at the mo.

mumbar not on the Pompey local page as on Southampton one organising fights against Portsmouth

Too young for Top Rank although all the old gimmers at work loved it. There must be a few here who went to Nexus (RIP) and Hammy at Academy/Rhinos?

Have they actually started the Tesco yet? Been talking about it for so long. I worked in Bridgemary for 10 years till last year and drove past MQ roundabout every day, this is taking me back. Live out in the sticks of East Hants though, hence not on Pompey MN boards.

Is anyone else familiar with Mick's Burger Bar on top of Portsdown Hill?

mchoc -- nothing wrong with that

chutes - less of the old gimmers thank you
