I was born in Portsmouth; we moved away when I was eighteen months old and returned when I was sixteen. Portsmouth is mainly built on an Island; surrounded by the Solent to the South, Langstone Harbour to the East, Portsmouth Harbour to the West, and Ports Creek, an almost dried up creek at low water to the North. Just to the North is Portsdown Hill (where I am) which overlooks the city. Looking Southwest, behind me can be seen most of the city.
