I’d like that, I travel through Portsmouth often and my Aunt and Uncle lived in Bedhampton.

I have a great fondness for the place.

There's so much history here isn't there, I'll start compiling some images and stories to go with them πŸ‘πŸ’―

My Uncle used to take me to Navy Days as a kid.

That had very good memories for me. I got to go on a submarine.

The last big navy day I remember now was the festival of the sea, about 20 years ago - somehow, despite living right by it, I've never actually managed to get to the submarine museum, I'd like to go one day though being 6' 4" I'll be needing a hardhat πŸ˜†

There’s a submarine museum? I want to go.

The one I went on was during Navy Days a looooong time ago.

I’m only 5’ 11’ so should be OK πŸ˜‚

It's here, in Gosport, there's also a hovercraft museum which I also have never visited 😞

I’ve never been to the Hovercraft museum either, but I have been on the IOW hovercraft as well as the cross channel hovercraft as a kid.

Love a good hovercraft, such a shame they never took off (pun intended).

I had a season of working in the hovercraft terminal when I was younger, that was great fun πŸ‘
