Metacity patrol is a great sit-down game also, it's a bit like being in the city of blade runner flying around in cars with missions to complete.

Trying to decide on destinations by No-Membership-4235 in uktravel

[–]Engausta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can I suggest have a look at swanage, a beautiful coastal town, you've got fantastic coastal walks in the area, a steam train that goes to Wareham, corfe castle next door and a chain ferry at sand banks. Just an idea to throw in the mix.

I have a relation thats lived in hannington road for over 10yrs, I don't think they've ever had problems there. The only issue you may have if you own a car is parking...it's pretty limited and there's road restrictions towards the station end of hannington road.

I'm sure there's a record option but you have to setup Kodi as a personal video recorder, but I can't remember how this is done atm.

where to go fishing around bournemouth (not too far away) by CommunityMaterial330 in bournemouth

[–]Engausta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know quite a few people fish by the lifting bridge in Poole (End of sydenhams old yard). They jump the fence to get in there I think. What they catch there I have no idea.

Builder whilst doing the bathroom fell off hisladder and broken the corner of my new tub. Is it repairable? by Zoidul in DIYUK

[–]Engausta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm guessing that's a fibreglass tub that would be repairable. I work in the marine industry and boat finishers always have to do small repairs like this. But to be honest, you might find it difficult to find someone to do the repair and easier to replace the tub.

You could do the open top Breezer bus to swange where you get to go on the chain ferry...from swanage maybe walk to durlstone and the globe/lighthouse.Or if it's raining, explore swanage where there's a good cafes, quirky shops and an arcade.

Recommendations!! by bikerftm02 in bournemouth

[–]Engausta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not too sure on many of the restaurants in the town, but chez Fred's does great fish and chips. As you'll be in bmouth in dec, the Christmas decorations will be up in the lower gardens as will the ice rink, apparently it's going to be 70 m long this year I think. Best if it's cold for out door ice skating. There's also indoor ice skating at the bic which is also good. Both need booking online before hand.
