My mum, who is a nurse, returned to her car after working a night shift to find this note left on her windscreen.

For context, she was parked completely legally on a public road, without obstructing any driveways, entrances or access.

I completely understand that parking can be frustrating for local residents, particularly those living near a hospital, but is this really how we should be treating the people who spend their days and nights caring for others?

NHS staff already work incredibly demanding hours, and surely a little kindness and consideration isn’t too much to ask. We have reported this to the council, who have since passed it on to the police due to the threatening nature of the letter.
If anyone else has received this note, or something similar, I would encourage you to report it too. Nobody should feel intimidated for parking legally on a public street.

- Happened on one of the residential roads around Southampton General

Went to St Mary Street for a haircut, the street feels almost post apocalyptic compared to London Road.

Me and my missus like collecting these bottles from milk machines at farm shops and the like on our travels. We're not traveling much atm but still want to up our collection of different bottles from different farms. Are there any local(ish) with the automatic machines and flavoured syrups that anyone is aware of?

I know there are maps for this sort of thing but there are loads that aren't on it and farm shops are notoriously bad at advertising if they have one.

I’m about to be homeless in 3 days and looking for advice. I joined the army at 17 and left at 21, back at the start of the year (discharged for circumstance out of my hands). I moved back in with my parents but they’ve decided to kick me out at the end of this month due to not being able to afford the rent they’re charging.
Just wondering what will happen when I go to the council, will I be given accommodation or will I be left to sleep on the streets?
And any advice really
I’ve found two saints online but they’ve said I need to be referred by the council first. I’ve sorted storage for my things and don’t drive.
Contract just ended on my job and waiting to hear back from another so feeling screwed right now.
Thank you in advance.

Or I was thinking anyone know of any Mobile homes I could rent for cheap or something etc.

Does anyone know why The Avenue is being closed?

This annual freebie is a good vibes magnet worth reaching at 5 Jewry Street in Winchester this weekend! Also set to feature MC Greenie too!

I’m hoping someone can help me with this, I’m local to Southampton and was hoping to hire a high optical zoom camera with minimum of 1080p filming capability’s or at a push a high optical zoom camcorder
I was initially looking at hiring either a Sony RX IV or a Nikon 900/950/1100 series but every site I’ve looked at don’t have any for hire this week, I only need it for Friday, can collect and can return the next following day, will be happy to pay a rental fee and deposit if needed for owners peace of mind, I’ll be filming a very special event for two friends at a distance so any help or offers here would be super appreciated

Have just moved to upper Shirley/basset area, are there any good streets to take my son trick r treating ?

Can anyone recommend someone local who does windscreen replacement? Been quoted £660 by Autoglass which is a joke, car is 19 years old and probably not even worth that much!

Does anyone have any recommendations for getting vehicle graphics done? I want to get some vinyl(?) logos/wording on my car.

Ideally not magnetic ones, I'm looking for the professional vehicle graphics style.

I do not need the whole car 'wrapped', I'm just not sure what the terminology is!

Anyone got any recommendations for things to do in Southampton or nearby over half term with kids aged 9 and 15?
Trying to find something they’ll both enjoy, which is easier said than done with that age gap 😂 Indoor or outdoor ideas welcome, especially anything a bit different from the usual cinema or bowling.
Any decent half-term events or activities worth checking out? Bonus points if it doesn’t require remortgaging the house. Cheers!

One week to go before my gig at The Railway Inn Winchester. Absolutely my favourite venue in Hampshire 🙌 Get yourself down for what will be a very meaningful night of live music for me. We have four acoustic based local artists for your listening pleasure 🙏

Has anyone else found that the signal for the bundle of digital stations that use the IOW transmitter, mainly the BBC ones, has got really bad recently?

Other bundles of stations seem fine, but for the last month or so the BBC ones have been unlistenable..

Radio set up hasn't changed...

Trying to get back home from hamble tonight, storm howling around me wonder why my bus is so late, open the app, Literally every bus until 10pm is cancelled, no explanation on their site, no explanation on their app despite their claims of it being the best way to stay updated about anything affecting service or operation. But sadly I can't even say this is a one off either. What's the point of the app if the only focus you have us tickets and not anything ACTUALLY useful.

morning all

i’m interested in getting 2 t-shirts hemmed but honestly, i can’t do it myself because a) i’d definitely fuck it up. and b) i own no sewing equipment. i’d prefer to pay someone to get it done properly. i’ve had a search on this subreddit and i’m thinking of either going to the two shops mentioned in the title. firstly, how do they work? do i need to give them a call or can i walk in? i did email but i had no response. also, how much am i looking at for this service? i had jeans hemmed in my hometown for £10 so i’d prefer to pay not much more than that. but that seems crazy low in this economy so we’ll see.

ty 🙏

edit: if anyone else is wondering about how much it costs to get a tshirt hemmed, both charge £15 :)

Hi everyone! I’m 26F and live around here! I was just wondering if anyone knows of any groups clubs or activities where I could meet new people and make some friends? I’d love to find something to do in the evenings and get out a bit more TIA :)

So next Saturday (Halloween) I'm turning 30 and I don't really have much planned - none of my friends are really local enough and I don't want to just be sat by myself moping which is what it looks like might end up being case. I've not celebrated my birthday properly for a while and it'd be nice to maybe do something

Does anyone know of any good events going for people where you can turn up by yourself, maybe make friends? Something social over alcohol driven would be awesome since I'm not a big drinker. Thank you
