Well then I stand corrected
It's shit isn't it. My parents live there. Not saying it's their fault per se, but nevertheless.

Parts of Emsworth are beautiful. I want to move there one day.

yeah it was a bungalow they had, but massive, with a tennis court and large gardens and they put a second level on top
and it was the most beautiful of all my relatives' houses.

and then he DIED of CANCER. LET THAT BE A WARNING.

i lived in portchester until i went to uni
my mum still lives there. it's not that bad. bit boring but there are worse places.

We have the same Mum?
Yes, there are far worse places. But it's certainly worse than it used to be. The precinct used to be a proper little shopping centre, now it's dreadful. The chippy on White Hart Lane's still pretty good though.

yeah, the precinct is a bit depressing. i used to work in the somerfield there
