27 Hilarious Solent Puns - Punstoppable 🛑

Special Appreciation for the folks at Solent Ships (Ideas for showing gratitude?)

Hey guys, not really sure about this, but I heard on their stream, the Solent Ship guys actually paid for a camera to set up the separate stream for cricket fans!

If this is true, I think this was really nice on their part. Now I know they are probably not on this forum to see this, hence if we could show our appreciation by either messaging the mods or really any other ideas, we should do that.

Just my two cents, I don't really know how or if this post even fits here, but I just feel we should show our gratitude somehow. Especially considering how much we screwed with their live chat.

Apologies if this is not the right thread

I'm a sailing photographer in the UK and I wanted to share my favourite photo I've ever taken of my friend sailing her F18 at the Solent Forts Race in the Solent! What do you think?

Anyone stayed at Deanery student residence with Solent Uni?

My daughter is due to start Solent uni in September and yesterday we visited the area for the first time. Her accommodation is a ten min walk through a park which is worrying me a little. There doesn’t seem to be any other way. It won’t necessarily be late after classes but during the winter it will be dark. Should I be worried?

This is No Man’s Fort. One of three naval defence forts built in the Solent (south UK) from 1867-1880 to protect important seaport Portsmouth from Napoleon. This one was converted into a boutique hotel. It’s only reachable to guests by boat.

Anyone know somewhere i can download solent hill 3 for PSx emulator?

I know it’s kinda scummy to use emulation but I don’t have the money and I just want to experience this awesome franchise,

Anyways I have a emulator named PSx but I’m very bad at computers and emulation so if anyone can help please do.

Oh also I would appreciate if someone wanted to take the time to add me on discord to guide/help me (ask in comments to get my discord tag, I don’t want spam or random people to ad me)
