You were in Portsmouth and you didn't think to get in contact with me?
Nice pics though, glad you had a good time - Portsmouth's an amazing city, I love living here. Looking forward to seeing more of your pictures.
Which areas did you visit (apart from the obvious Gunwharf Quays/City Centre areas)?

That's the Portsmouth Guildhall, one of my favourite old buildings in the city - it's our biggest entertainments venue, and obviously as you can see it has a clock tower too (effectively the 'Big Ben' of Portsmouth). It's pretty big, the tower reaches up to 54m (177ft).

thanks mate, i totally forgot to pm you lol

portsmouth is indeed an amazing city, very clean and well organized imo. i especially like the new development near the spinnaker tower and the shops around that area, it's a superb place to hang out with friends oh and then i also went to the university library just to get some info about the architecture and civil engineering courses, the staffs were also very helpful tho, well i had a good time there and i love this city.

Lovely pictures, am missing Portsmouth. Has a reat vibe and mix of seaside and city living mixed with the excitment of a very busy Naval port.

The photos are great. Very beautiful city! Portsmouth is definetely a place for me to go. Portsmouth Guildhall is amazing and the city seems to be so quiet.
