Advantages: Spinnaker Tower, Pompey FC, Gunwharf Quays, Port Solent, Dockyard

Disadvantages: There are some bad areas like there are in every city

What can I say? I love my Pompey. I was born here and have lived here all my life. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

I suppose it is true of other cities, but I just feel so loyal to Portsmouth and I know a lot of other people from Portsmouth are just the same.

We now have a great football team who are doing well and our fans are amongst the most respected in the country I believe (the only ones that don't like us are Southampton fans).

We have the wonderful Gunwharf Quays and our precious Spinnaker Tower which has put us on the map. Obvously, our heritage is important too with our dockyard and historic ships.

The other shopping areas in Portsmouth are Cascades and Commercial Road for all of the usual high street stores, Palmerston Road in Southsea which also has high street stores and there are also some unusual shops located at Port Solent which also has lots of great pubs and restaurants which are good for a quite drink and meal.

Some things to look forward to in Portsmouth are the creation of Portsmouth FC's new ground and the continuing development of the shopping area in Commercial Road and Cascades.

There is plenty to see and do in Portsmouth and people could easily come here for a short break and never get bored. Come down and see us if you have never been.

Summary: You won't get bored in Pompey!!
