Place of my Birth

I was born in Gosport in 1959. As the daughter of a sailor we left a couple of times but always returned. I married at St Marys Alverstoke in 1980. I have very fond, maybe a little rose-tinted, memories of Gosport when I was growing up. From the late night bus trips to Lee, riding the ferry to Portsmouth for my first job, the many rowdy afternoons at Gosport and Fareham RFC (where I met my husband). I still love coming back to Gosport even though the High Street has little more than charity shops. You just cannot beat fish and chips down at the ferry regardless of the season or weather.
