SINCE launching our new group We Grew Up in Southampton, more than 1,200 of our readers have joined the growing community to share their memories and images of Hampshire.
We've also been delving into our archives and sharing a plethora of images from a range of decades.
From pubs to landmarks, cinemas to old shops – our members have been reminiscing about it all.
But it's not just Southampton open for discussion, we're encouraging those in the surrounding areas to join, enjoy and contribute too.
