A simple line my instuctor told me made this easy to remember,

"Port wine is RED and you always pour from the LEFT"

Many years ago at summer camp while learning to sail, I learned "PORT
and LEFT have four letters."


Port Out Starboard Home. This referred to the best cabins on the ships to
India from England. The POSH cabins were the cooler ones and attracted a
premium fare.

This lead to the introduction of the word POSH for anything uppercrustish or
better than the norm.
