JOIN us as we take another trip down memory lane by looking at pictures from May 1990.
Among the images are two schools that held balloon launches to mark the opening of new buildings. Those pictured are Stoke Park Junior and Netley Infant.
Cecil Parkinson was snapped in Hedge End when he visited the parish to open the new railway station on the Eastleigh to Fareham line.
