So,do you 'hail' from Pompey.....makes sense with a user name like Atlantia, my father is ex Royal Navy and was often down there ....never 'complained' about the local girls though

Regards David
Thats so weird, My father was RN too!
My mum's from Kent and they met at Pompey when she was a wren!

I worked in Pompey for a while as a nightclub promotions manager. The place is like the wild west. The girls fight with ash-trays, high heels and/or bar stools!!!!!!

I'm in devon now, much quieter.

Strangely, my folks remember Pompey as a really nice place in the 50s!!!!

BTW, I'll PM the BM and ask them to send the bronzes over for you ;-)
Along with their indo-persian collection for me.
