By the way, is that Portsmouth's coat-of-arms at the top of the site linked to here? It looks rather Islamic, with its crescent moon and star. History, please... (I doubt even with its maritime history Portsmouth can claim a great Islamic heritage. Or is there secretly an Alhambra hidden amongst the rubble of the Tricorn?)

There is an Alhambra Road, next to Granada Road.
More on the coat of arms here.
