It's our aim to showcase the best seasonal, locally grown produce, feature the best places to eat it and provide you with mouth-watering recipes that you can try at home.

We not only welcome, but hopefully will come to depend on, your input to make these pages useful and interesting.  So whether you have a few tried and trusted recipes that you’re willing to share – or you’ve had a top meal at a local pub, bistro or restaurant – please use these pages to shower praise. Restaurant Reviews

You might like to tell us about an amazingly good wine you’ve found that’s on special offer – just down the road in the Off-Licence or on the shelves at your supermarket.

In other words, these really are - Pompey people’s pages.

As we’re just getting off the ground, I’ve added a few Recipes (see link on left) that have worked well for me and will hopefully work well for you - there are a few from Lesley Rann too. Send in yours.

Do please get in touch about any of the topics above or ones you’d like to be debated and included.  E-mail us now

Beware!

OK be honest.  Do you ever check your receipt before leaving the supermarket or indeed any other sales outlet?

I know some do, but I bet I’d be right in saying that most of us trust the transaction and leave it at that. 

Occasionally we might look at the receipt when we get home. Well … beware!
