It was a walk down to Gunwharf Quays in Southsea on Monday. The weather was perfect for a stroll through the streets of Portsmouth, taking in the views and enjoying the company of family.

From the moment we left my Aunties house, it was clear Portsmouth had changed much over the years. It has been a long time, since I sauntered through historic Pompey. The familiar landmarks are of course still there; HMS Warrior, HMS Victory and The Mary Rose, but there are also many new buildings and structures. Dominating the skyline is the Spinnaker Tower, as well as the 'Lipstick' Tower, nicknamed as such because of its likeness to the ladies cosmetic.

It has been great not only catching up with family, but also familiar places, that I haven't seen for many years. Britain is a vibrant, ever changing Country. I have actually felt more alive coming back here, than I have done in a longtime. Of course this place is home and as such, will always be a place I return to, again and again!
