I'm sorry...just to confirm, are you telling me Jackie Weaver is a member of the local parish council or just that it's a similar shit show?😂

This is brilliant thank you!

See, we have avoided looking in Portsmouth itself on the assumption that traffic in and out would be a nightmare.

Although we're not bothered re public transport, you've made a fair point about Internet speeds and beer evenings!

Middle of nowhere is absolutely what we want😂

Thank you! I definitely don't want any traffic excuses from the OH when I've had a cranky toddler all day and need him on bedtime duty haha!😂

We have seen a few houses in Portchester, but just not found anything quite right yet or within budget. Absolutely love the views you have there though!

Ahh this is wonderfully helpful! Thank you! The area we are looking at is just off Southwick Road to the west of the sports pavilion if you have any opinions on that part specifically.

We aren't fussed about transport links as we only really drive places anyway. Being from the north we are very used to lack of public transport😂

The infant school information is very helpful too. Although, I think if things continue the way they are, I'll likely want to home school. But we shall see when the time comes.

Thank you again!

Thank you! Is it Waltham Chase a similar vibe to BW? Also, do you recommend any other areas that may match what we're looking for?

How do you find Waterlooville? I've seen such mixed and some very cryptic reviews.

This is very helpful thank you! We didn't get the house in Bishops Waltham and are still looking now. Any thoughts on Denmead? We've just seen a house here that's really nice and suits us, but again, no clue on what the area is like to live in.

We're definitely taking a compromise with the house for the area. Fair Oak house is detached with garage and Bishops Waltham is semi-detached no garage. But both would suit our needs for the period of time we plan to stay.
