All stems back to when sailors had a choice of where to dock, and they based that on the availability of hookers for their stop over. It started off where Portsmouth would offer quality, only the finest in working girls, but Southampton began offering a "cheap but cheerful" service, which became more popular with Sailors who may have not been well paid, or in less need of any real sophistication. Portsmouth has never been able to forgive Southampton for hijacking what it proudly sees as its finest export. Its where the Pompey Chimes "Play up Pompey" saying comes from. Literally "get it up". Southamptons Saints go Marching In likewise refers to the lines of Sailors waiting patiently for their turn, and the line "patient as a saint" comes from (saint being Sotonian slang for sailor).Originally posted by Norbs View PostAnd to so with Naval v Commercial dock yards
True storyIn the beginning, Fowler created the Heaven and the Earth.
