This is based on the Southampton FC badge, and came from an idea
in Prague from Paul and Helen. There are several variations
on this theme below, based on different images in the top half of
the shield.
Basically - the ball and scarf should be self-explanatory (we tried
a bar scarf, but it didn't look like a Scotland one). The top image
is of a window frame in the Abbey ruins, the waves represent Southampton
Water, and the year is that of formation.
This is Rich's favourite, but despite coming up with the original
idea, both Paul and Helen are a little uncertain about how it would
look in "real life". Rich is right in that it is instantly
recognisable as Southampton-related, which does go in it's favour.
The badge on the left was used as the shape, but the "split-shield"
was abandoned in favour of a single shield.
