It explained why our daughter doesn't ride her bike about the place as she says she'd rather walk everywhere than get hurt teetering about on broken roads.....
Mind you, fantastic tower, Gunwharf is the only shopping centre I actually am willing to go to... but only because they who like shopping can shop and I can look at boats and drink coffee and have the best pasty outside the one true county that it's been my experience to devour, so it's not all bad but I must say the roads are utterly appalling in and around Portsmouth. And you've got Novatech on the doorstep...... and Halmatic..... and that millenium trail..... and Southsea sea front, so interesting.....
Thanks for letting me visit, I hope to come again but I'll bring the Astra and try to avoid downtown Southsea..!
Keep up the good work
Cheers
