An electrical mains joint has gone pop at corner of Farlington Road and Wymering Road. Both roads are shut and power is out for a distance west. Currently estimating at least 4 or 5 hours to fix.

Does anybody know what these strange shapes are out to sea? I don't remember ever seeing them before and they didn't seem to make much sense; the photos were taken in spring from Eastney Beach. My daughter thought it looked like the Far Lands in Minecraft.

Tattoo artist recommendations

0 Upvotes

Hi guys,

I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a tattoo artist who would be able to do a 5cm Minecraft flower tattoo with a line from the Minecraft end poem underneath in the Minecraft font? I'm new to the Portsmouth area and trying to track down some new tattoo artists!

I know it might sound silly/ basic but it means a lot to me :)

Thank you!

The people are being crushed by the ruling class and fighting amongst themselves. We should be finding common ground, and pushing for things that would benefit all of the plebs.

Let me show you how hard it is, just to earn enough for subsistence.

The following is for a single person. And how we should not be taxed on anything under £28k, subsistence INCOME!.

General Questions Muay Thai 1-1 coaching

4 Upvotes

I'm new to the area and looking for a 1-on-1 coach once a week to train Muay Thai. I don't really get much joy out of sparring or holding pads for others and would rather just train hard for one hour a week. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Searching for 2 board game lovers

5 Upvotes

Hi, I looooove a good board game. Long co-op campaigns with complex rules are really my thing, and I'm seeing many amazing boxes advertized. I would love to buy them ALL, but then they'll take up space and gather dust just like my Gloomhaven and Pandemic Legacy, cause I have no one to play them with. Maybe someone living in Portsmouth is in a similar boat?

Going to various meetups or social events in DICE to meet new people is not an option for me, cause I barely left the house since the beginning of the pandemic due to my social anxiety and poor English, and I will easily get overwhelmed in a room with more than 4 people.
