We asked you which Southampton attractions you'd like to see make a comeback.
And it took us on a trip down memory lane.
From the Balloon Festival to an old school arcade, you certainly made us feel all nostalgic.
We had nearly 1,500 comments on our post.
Here's some of our favourites:
1. The pier sorted or dismantled. Balloon festival back as it should be and boating lake revamped at sports centre.
2. The children's splash pool on the Common & the boating lake at the sports centre.
3. The carnival. Took my kids for years when they were small. 40 years ago. It was a whole evening entertainment. Loads of different floats and participants.
4. It would be nice to have the pier reinvented. For the residents, cruise tourists and for day visitors.
5. Kids playground in Mayflower Park, Balloon Festival, Southampton Show, boating lake at the common....paddling pool at the common!
6. A good old school arcade with 80s and 90s games only. Ultra retro arcade.
7. Sea wings! Nothing like a good air show to lift peoples spirits! Home of the Spitfire after all!
8. The big slides at Mayflower Park.
9. Balloon and Flower Festival! Loved going as a kid.
10. Jumping Jaks, Power in the Park, the balloon festival and the Sega Park.
