My favourite quote about Portsmouth was during the latest Gulf war

Heard on Sky News:

"'Umm Qasr is a city similar to Southampton,' UK defence minister Geoff Hoon said in The Commons yesterday.

'He's either never been to Southampton, or he's never been to Umm Qasr' says a British Squaddie patrolling Umm Qasr.

Another soldier added: 'There's no beer, no prostitutes and people are shooting at us. It's more like Portsmouth.'

Pompey is OK - I used to live in Southsea.

and people are shooting at us

Maybe an odd bottle thrown at you, but thats about it

Everyone in Portsmouth loves Southampton football club. So wear one of their strips when you visit!

I rarely visit porstmouth.. think i have only been 3 times to get on the ferry to france.

For a city there's not much there.. But to stick up for it, there is a lot of work going on. A good place to buy a house and get a profit in a few years

at the same time i would end up learning to street fight
