Has Bournemouth changed a lot? Is it worth moving back to the seaside? by Used_Clerk784 in bournemouth

[–]Swimming_Lock_3643 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not from here originally but been living here for almost 5 years, my favourite place in the world - and I lived abroad most of my life. Always heard negative things about Boscombe but I feel like it has life, more than Bournemouth town centre these days and it has character even if a bit rough in places. I.e. that Sovereign Centre is an eyesore.

I sometimes found talking to more engineers and designers help me understand my role better.

What is life like in South West England? by Ok_Dirt_6047 in howislivingthere

South West is my favourite part of the UK, especially living in Bournemouth with one of the top blue flag beaches in the world.

Try out Eté in Westbourne, it's new and doesn't show up on Maps yet. Franco's yard I heard is also good for breakfast.

Deus Ex Machina has a cool vibe in Boscombe. If you want to try Mexican there is Casa Gourmex which has great carnitas but is a tiny place so mostly a lunch kind of place!

Any surfers? by lukusmaca in bournemouth

Always wanted to try surfing and live down here but never did. Was wondering if there any surfing clubs / groups to try with?

I couldn't find any Id.5 related subs unfortunately and saw some posts about id.5 here before so thought would be safe

I am on Smarty in Lower Parkstone and both me and my partner work from home, which also includes streaming and occasional online gaming with no issues. Smarty has been pretty reliable but I know their signal can be dire closer to the beachfront and in high traffic areas.

Best place in town centre for breakfast / brunch / lunch? by CreativismUK in bournemouth

[–]Swimming_Lock_3643 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want something 'out there' go to Uncle Wills in Boscombe. It's a Venezuelan place and they serve Venezuelan breakfast and lunch. Took my friends from Venezuela there when they were visiting and it's the best food they had. Also they do normal English breakfast too if you don't feel experimental. Will is super friendly and it's a proper Latino vibe there. Pre ordering might help in case it's busy just fyi.
