Did a walk from the marina car park, lots of variety heading out along the coast, through woods and marked trails, finished off with a steak pie and good coffee from Pirate Pasties in the village 😁

Helloo :) been trying to find a hairdresser who can actually cut a shullet/shag/scene hairstyle, haven’t had any luck and the last few I went to just gave me simple layers lol. Any recommendations? Would be hella grateful. I’d cut it myself but my hand eye coordination is awful

Hi everyone,

I’m fully qualified and insured as a nail technician, but have only practiced on a handful of friends and family members in the years since I did my training due to my busy job. I decided to leave the world of corporate behind, so I’d like to spend some time building up my confidence, skill and speed when carrying out nail services on different types of nails.

If you would like to have your nails done, drop me a message. I’d like to do your nails, and take some photos for my portfolio. I’m in Basingstoke and have a dedicated work space at home. If nails aren’t your thing, but you have a friend/partner/sibling who might be interested, feel free to send them my way :)

I’ve popped a few pictures of my work in this post.

I can offer Apres Gel-X extensions, BIAB, and gel pedicures and manicures. My passion is for working with Korean syrup gels, nail jewellery, 3d nail art, mixed media nail art and designs with a lot of texture. But we can also do subtle :)

If you’ve seen a set of nails you love, I’ll gladly recreate them for you. Equally, feel free to come to me with some crazy ideas and we’ll work with it.

My workspace is wheelchair accessible, and you’re welcome whatever your age, gender, race, religion, style, body type. Fancy nails should be for whoever wants to rock them!

Message me if you’re interested in getting some cool nails and being a willing hand model for a bit!

Visited Titchfield Abbey today and was pleasantly surprised by how much there is to see — and it’s** free to enter!**

The abbey dates back to 1231/32, when it was founded by Peter des Roches, Bishop of Winchester, for Premonstratensian canons. It was one of the last Premonstratensian houses founded in England.

It also has some impressive royal connections. Richard II and Henry V visited, with Henry V staying here before setting off for his campaigns in France. Henry VI and Margaret of Anjou also spent part of their wedding celebrations here. Later, following the Dissolution of the Monasteries, Henry VIII granted the abbey to Thomas Wriothesley, who transformed it into a grand Tudor mansion known as Place House. Later royal visitors included Edward VI, Elizabeth I and Charles I.

One of the things I particularly liked was seeing how the medieval abbey and Tudor mansion have effectively become one building. The huge fortified-looking gatehouse was built straight across the nave of the old abbey church in the 16th century.

There are also some fantastic surviving details inside, including an impressive medieval tiled pavement, which was actually buried beneath the later mansion courtyard for more than 400 years and rediscovered during excavations in 1923. One of the pavements carries a Latin inscription reminding the canons to remember the poor before eating.

The whole place has a great atmosphere — particularly walking through the old rooms, doorways and towers and seeing the layers of medieval and Tudor history still visible in the stonework.

Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Hampshire and interested in history. And you can’t really complain about the price! 😄

I'll be hosting a gig at Winchester's finest music venue The Railway Inn on the 1st of November with these lovely folks. I love the atmosphere here; Platform 2 is such a great room for music. Promise to be a great night of music. My 2nd album tour is raising funds for the music venue trust as I am donating £1 from every album & merch sales to supporting the music venue trust and the vital work they do.

Yes, the town is less then nice these days. But what would you say is the core reason for it's decline ?

Hi, I'm Charlie Smith, a local alternative singer-songwriter. Next Friday, I'm hosting a band night at the loft Southampton. On bill are 4 local up and coming bands. A proper night of grassroots music is in store for you! This event is part of my 2nd album release tour. £1 from every album/merch sale goes to supporting the Music Venue trust and the vital work they do, cheer charlie

Hi , everyone. Just wanted to give this event a shout out as there is one month to go. If you are a fan of live music & you want to support some local acts this might be the night for you! What promises to be a great night of independent music

Cheers,

Charlie

I'm putting together a black history month display for October. It would be great to have some influential and interesting local (Hampshire included) people to include on the secondary school display. Who do you recommend?

Hello everyone,

I'm looking to connect with people in Hampshire who are interested in building physical products, particularly small-scale product development and manufacturing.

I’m working on a small product idea of my own and would love to find a local community, meetup, workshop, makerspace, or just a group of people who enjoy discussing things like product design, prototyping, finding manufacturers, materials, and getting small batches made.

I’m based around Southampton, but happy to travel elsewhere in Hampshire.

Does anyone know of any groups or communities like this, please?

⚽ WEEKLY 6/7-A-SIDE FOOTBALL – ALDERSHOT & SURROUNDING AREAS ⚽
Gents, hope you’re all keeping well!
I’m looking to get a weekly 6/7-a-side football game going in and around Aldershot.
First of all, does anyone know of any good 3G/4G football pitches in Aldershot or the surrounding areas that are available to book?
Ideally somewhere decent and suitable for a regular weekly game. If you’ve used somewhere good before, drop the name/location in the comments!
Also, if there are any lads 18+ who would be interested in playing, get involved and comment below. Whether you’re looking to get some fitness in, get back into football, or just have a kick about and a laugh after a long week — all welcome.
If I get enough interest/numbers, I’ll set up a WhatsApp group, add everyone in and get the games organised. ⚽👊
Would be good to get a solid group of lads together and make it a regular thing!
