South City Si Posted 11 August, 2008 Share Posted 11 August, 2008 Thought I'd start a thread for things/places in Southampton of note to you that don't neccesarily get mentionned, like a place you like to go to every now and then that others may not know of. I have become aware of how little I really know of East Southampton as I live in Shirley and was brought up in C Ford. I occasinally like to take time and walk the walls, although obvious I feel many take it for granted and that little 'Old Town' area is neglected.

Block 18 Posted 11 August, 2008 Share Posted 11 August, 2008 I enjoy a walk on the common every now and then, sometimes a walk through the old cemetry is a good way to spend an hour or so looking at the graves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can confirm, there is a carribean restaurant in St Marys. You should give it a try. I have heard a lot of good things about the restaurant. Mostly about the food and the friendly service in which the customers receive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard a lot of good things about the restaurant. Mostly about the food and the friendly service in which the customers receive. The restaurant down St mary's had a stall at the Carribean Festival at Mayflower Park and the Jerk Chicken was awesome. If the rest of the food is that good then it looks good. Have been meaning to try both of them for a while. I can't find a website for either of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamster Posted 16 December, 2008 Share Posted 16 December, 2008 where can i find the hot eastern european women on a night out? I worked with a chap who when asked by visiting semen "Where is the best place to find some 'fanny' in Southampton!? Would reply "On the end of my knob" He used to tell this story at the Rum Runners after a few whiskeys, when we should have been sorting mail. Good days at the post office them was.

hamster Posted 16 December, 2008 Share Posted 16 December, 2008 Apparently, Thomas Fleming (Sir), who was Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer who 'tried' (sp) Guy Fawkes, is buried at St Nicholas' in Stoneham Lane (the one handed clock church). Therefore, without Fleming - who Fleming Park, Fleming Avenue and The Fleming Arms are named in honour of - we would not have Bonfire Night. FACT Southampton should mark this IMO.

And there'd be no SWF football. Robsk and the other e-football geeks would have to find something else to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1976_Child Posted 30 December, 2008 Share Posted 30 December, 2008 Things I'd like to see in Southampton? ...a goal or two being scored!!... but seriously... I'd like to see the return of a cross-channel ferry operating out of Southampton. Ideally to Normandy. I go over to France every now and again and at the moment have to go from Portsmouth. Enough said. There used to be a channel ferry from Southampton.. can't remember its name though. I guess the problem is the length of time it takes getting down the Sound and past the Isle of Wight, a problem which sailing from Pompey doesn't have. Would probably add an extra hour onto the journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Balls Posted 8 February, 2009 Share Posted 8 February, 2009 Randomly went to the Titanic museum today! £1.90 to get in. Great value and very interesting. Cant believe I've lived in Southampton for 21 years without going! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
