South West England - Ringwood

Moving down South alone after university, without family and friends has never been an easy thing for me. I have been quite lucky, starting to make some friends over here, get used to routine working life, and now in my new house with some charming ladies!

Even better was my mates from Newcastle were here last weekend! It was so so great to see someone that you were familiar with! It was a sunny & fantastic day in Ringwood, good Chinese food in a local pub, great friends; what else could you ask for in life? ^^

Some travelling information, if you are coming from London, there is a direct National Express bus service from London. It costs about GBP19 for return tickets, or there is a funfare option might offer a cheaper price! If you are going to Ringwood from Bournemouth, National Express does serve this route every half an hour. Day return is as cheap as GBP3.40. Wilt and Dorset Company also runs a bus service from Poole to Bournemouth, which stops at Ringwood. Though it takes longer time to reach Ringwood compared to National Express Service.
