Hamble isnât Southampton, good for a piss up.
Until the City has more access to the waterfront itâll be a fragmented City with no centre or heart. Its needs a heartbeat.
Itâs a successful working dock.
Should we just close it all down so you can sip a Lambrini cocktail in a nautically themed Spoons in the new Old Dock Quarter?
Itâs a port for a start, what about the Royal Pier?
Oh for fucks sake, docks, port, whatever - stop being a dick for the sake of it canât you? As a local nipper we called them the docks. Canât remember if you were actually brought up locally.
And what exactly about the Royal Pier? Just chuck a random point in as per all your usual rantsâŚ
Well whatâs the story there and intention?
What the fuck are you on about? Donât talk in riddles of one weird sentence - explain what you mean or what you want to know. It might head off half of the beefs you create.
Btw Iâd blow up the Royal Pier itâs been no use to anyone for at least 40 years. Turn it into yet more expensive flats and retail units? What do you think? You seem to have an opinion, or do you? Share it, itâll make this less painful.
Thatâs Southampton wrapped up right there.
Last time the Pier was in operation it had a Beefeater on it. Is that the kind of thing youâre after?
It sums up our ambition, nothing, zip, fuck all.
Again a useless random comment that adds nothing or moves the discussion along.
Iâm pretty sure you do this on purpose.
Why? Thatâd be a psychoanalystâs dream unravelling that one.
Edit: Oh, and answer all the questions. Youâre keen to point it out when others donât.
You were sayingâŚ
It seems they want money to bring people in, it doesnât work like that, you have to have some things in the first place that interest people. We have traffic lights and ocean villageâŚ
Your point was about ambition.
Today it was announced that Southampton are vying for a prestigious award that should help regenerate and improve the city, if Liverpool is anything to go by.
Besides, I hardly think youâre qualified to assess the ambition of others when youâre not ambitious enough to address the content of the posts youâre replying to. Baby steps, Barrington. Baby steps.
Didnât we go for something with them down the road a while back?
Best shoe shop in Hampshire or something?
Old news, mate.
Weâre more ambitious now.
