Baby Velociraptor Exploring Southampton, UK!
I received this LGC themed postcard as part of my rewards for Elly's travel fundraiser so just added a few personalied touches and I had my baby velociraptor for photographing around Southampton!
They joined me for dinner at TGI Friday's just before Christmas:
Looking towards Southampton from the Hythe waterfront:
Today I had a little walk around the city centre and took a few snaps on what has been a very sunny but very cold day!
Part of the old Southampton walls right next to the brand new extension to the West Quay shopping centre (mall):
The Grand Harbour hotel has seen better days:
The signs encouraging you to visit the older parts of the city:
An old pub (a tour of a UK town or city would be incomplete without a pub photo!):
A pub named after the illfated ship that has a big connection to Southampton:
A mural commerating the long history of Southampton (aka Suthhamtun)
Hamtun street named after the domesday name:
Oh and if anyone would like me to write on the postcard and send it to them, let me know (anywhere in the world is fine!)




Really nice pictures (I also couldn't help noticing that you had the 'obligatory pub photo' and a second pub picture almost immediately afterwards, heh).
Thanks! Hehe, we do have a lot of pubs XD
Likewise, but ours look a lot more boring :P
This is absolutely fantastic!!!!! 😍
hehe, thanks! ^_^
I've "saved" the post and when the deadline is here, I will check them all out together and mail out the bears! This was awesome!!! :) Thanks for being the first participant, too.
I'm thinking anyone who doesn't get a bear will get stickers or postcards or just anything fun, too :D
I adored this; did anyone give you funny looks while you took the pics? XD
P.s. If nobody else volunteers for this postcard, we should start a postcard chain!!!! I mailed it to you. You can write a short note and mail it back to me. I can write a short note and mail it to another members. 20 mails later, mail it back to you.... :D :D :D
I did take a picture of IKEA at one point which did get me a few odd looks (it came out super blurry so I didn't include it), but there were other people taking pics in some of the places so I blended in a bit :D
hehe :D
That's funny cos I was thinking the other day about seeing if anyone wanted to start a notebook chain, it was something I saw before probably on LJ years ago - just like you suggest with the postcard but each person buys a thinnish notebook and then everyone sends them around to each other and adds art and writes about anything they want on a page or two and then the person who bought each notebook gets them back with lots of cool stuff added!
That's so cool!!!!
Yes, I think it'd be a lot of fun!
We should do it! Perhaps, as a /wentworth activity! Are you on there?
Would you like to be a leader there, if you're into mailing stuff? It's all about mailing stuff and letter writing and postcards :D
I've not got any leader slots left but I will definitely join - I used to do postcrossing until a few years ago. I received and sent postcards to and from so many countries, it was really fun! (I've made a post about it :D)
This notebook chain thing is a hella awesome idea :o
yay! ^_^
I love this!
Thanks ^_^
SOUTHAMPTOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNN 😭 Seeing the Bargate made me wibble😢 I'd never seen that mural before 😮 These are great photos and it looks like it was a really lovely day to have taken them, too!
Thanks ^_^ yeah doesn't the sky look ridiculously blue XD
