Lets all try it.
Step 1: Say "thank"
Step 2: Say "you"
Step 3: Now say "thank you".
If you said "fank que" please start from step 1 again.
Yours sincerly,

Anyone know what time the display is meant to start?
I have two spare tickets to Pendulum Halloween tonight if anyone wants to buy them, they include the after party (now confirmed headliner and at Astoria). Happy to take offers or split if needed.
I don’t know if it’s been asked on here before, but I was told that there’s somewhere in Portsmouth, that’s got scorpions roaming about. Is this true? If so, where is it?
Why are all these wrong-uns just hanging out on the street
I am selling 2 tickets for tonight's rave at Pitt Street Skate Park. First release prices so grab a bargain. You can buy from me direct or find them on safe-ticketing site Tixel.
Mate dropped out so selling their ticket. Got on first release so only £16.75. DM if interested, can send proof of purchase and ticket and will only sell via PayPal Goods & Services.
We're on CityFibre, and it's been down for about 45 minutes. This is the first time we've had an outage with them. Wi-fi is strong, but DNS won't resolve.
Hi all,

Is there any place I can buy a small box of sparklers? Also, are there any laws about using sparklers in your backyard?
Hi everyone! My little sister is visiting for the week, and she’ll be celebrating Halloween with us. Does anyone know where we can go trick-or-treating safely in Southsea? We want to make sure people are friendly and actually hand out candy, haha! I live near Festing Road, if that helps!
I saw a post about this ride a while ago and managed to find some photos from inside. (These are not my Photos , I found them on a facebook group) Be interesting to see if anyone else has more like this.
UPDATE: thanks guys, we looked at Sovreigns but they couldnt fit us in - but farmhouse 10 mins away could so we’ve booked there!
Hey guys
We’re after recommendations of a pub or something where we can stop off to for a relatively inexpensive meal with the kids on our way to the Ferry Terminal.
Would happily take a ‘Spoons or similar, but ideally would love a play area to let the little ones run off steam.
Any recommendations?
Thank you in advance.
Hi, i am a student here in UOP. I am now in my second year so i have been here since September 2022. I have applied for my student exemption for the city council back at 2022 and then i also applied again last year and this year. I keep getting mail saying i owe 970 Pounds which is frustrating me. Now they are threatening to take my belongings even though i am a student. Can someone explain to me why i am still getting 970 Pounds even though i applied for an exemption and also is there a way i can get rid of the 970 Pounds bill? Much appreciated ♥️
Just in case hear you hear it in an hour's time the nuclear emergency siren is being tested at 0930. See statement by HMNB Portsmouth;
"please note there will be a full test of the Naval Base’s nuclear emergency alerting siren at 0930 today which may be able to be heard outside of the base.
It is a statutory requirement to test the alarm three times a year and this test is being conducted in agreement with Portsmouth and Gosport local authorities.
The two-tone siren will be sounded for one minute for the test."
It sounds a WW2 air raid siren going off.
Does anyone know where I can buy thermal paste near commercial road? Thank you.
This is probably a long shot but my student visa is running out, does anyone know of any jobs in Portsmouth that offer job sponsorship?
Morning all. Who do I report a missing lifebouy float too? Walking to work this morning & noticed one missing near Hilsea.
You never know when you might need one!
Many thanks
i.e guy with a guitar or small group of people doing popular covers, not actual gigs with original music.
Is there anywhere in Portsmouth you can recommend where there’s a guarantee you’ll find this kind of entertainment on a regular basis? Gunwharf quay, city centre, old Portsmouth.
Travelling in for a Friday night and google isn’t that helpful.
Hi all, I'm looking at buying a flat on either one of these two roads. Is one better than the other or both fairly similar locations?
Cheers
Hello,
Im looking for a rat breeder/rats for sale in Portsmouth. Would prefer a breeder over pets@home or Jollyes :)
Cheers!
Hi Everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew of any pubs in the Fratton area that has sky sports? Me and a friend want to watch the Man Utd vs Chelsea game next weekend.
Are there any available trains for Christmas or only buses are available on that day?
Every event I find seems to only be doing fireworks, and I am honestly fed up of it.
It's bonfire night, the bonfire is integral. It's going from a distinct traditional event to just a boring generic fireworks display which happens all the time for any event or holiday.
Don't care if I have to go a bit further out of field, I just want a damn bonfire.
