Where would you live in Southampton?

[puffling]

Either in the city or surrounding places.
Where is pleasant , good schools, any really decent suburbs?

HPTKO would that be the one beginnig with P?

Southampton is likely any other place has it good and bad places. I like where we live we have every thing we need, not far from shops, forest and the coast. Moved from the midlands 15 years a go so must be good!

Maybe Eve !

I agree, there are bad parts of Southampton (Shirley Warren, Millbrook, St. Marys), like with any city, but you just don't go there.

Depends if it is my night off or not he he.

Come and live in Winchester Secondary schools are all brilliant!

Oh and Helllllooooooo Eve

House prices here are a bit silly though. We have no money because of the mortgage

I went to St Anne's in Southampton which always used to be well thought of, although my experience was so long ago as now to be irrelevant!

My sister lives in Southampton-that's enough to put anybody off!! .

Oh Snorris That's mean! It's yer sisters friend in Southampton you wanna watch out for

Now winchester is the place to be, good schools, nice town I liked it there in my student days.....

How's the boys Squirdle?

I had a boyfriend who lived in Portswood and it seemed ok
Lovely big houses

Portswood wasn't at all lovely when I lived there! Nice big houses but all filled with students. My house in Portswood was horrid.

But moving from London to Winchester makes Wimchester seem very rural....Greenwich aint very rural! I love Salisbury though, just seems lovely and clean.

I guess lots of people move to Winchester from London because the commute into London is easy.

Oh and Eve, the boys are good thanks tis half term though so I am frazzled! How is J?

Hamble nice, good school, but worry about Fawley fallout! Other side of the water nicer because you're om edge of New Forest and no more expensive e.g. Hythe, Marchwood, or Totton, all got good schools.

Well, I would say Romsey but I spent half my life trying to get away from there.

The Waitrose there is rather splendid though

A friend of mine lives in Totton which is quite pleasant.
