Why the name
POSH
We have always loved the urban myth surrounding the acronym P.O.S.H.
The story goes that the more well-to-do passengers travelling on P & O ships to and from India used to have POSH written
against their bookings, standing for
'Port Out, Starboard Home'
(indicating the more desirable cabins,
on the shady side of the ship).
Now days in our lovely studio that occupies the former P & O shipping office,
POSH is also an acronym for;
Port Originals Start Here!
