I used to know someone from Eton who was really scruffy.

In fact, he was a mess.

 


Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry.

You're chair of The Rotary Club and The Marina. Your wife is on The Hunt committee as her little hobby. You drink in the evening in the drawing room with an oversized dark wood fireplace - which gets lit at 5.45 by the maid. You don't mind when your wife flirts with the guests when tipsy. She's bored; you're wealthy, yet nothing compares to the glory days of the changing rooms at Gordonstoun you long for.

Did the Games Master rifle through his rugger shorts?

Those Posh neighbours are visible to you. And what is invisible ? That's the couple dozen poor people, in little houses, living in-between.

Just for another b!tch and whine, why is it the usual pub lunch these days has to have every dish with superfluous words outweighing informative ones?

‘Gourmet boiled, free trade haricot beans, served atop slow grilled Mediterranean bread, in a scarlet red tomato based jus’

and crisps ... sea salt and balsamic or smoked Gruyerre with spring onion ... wtf!

Caviar is divine - my elevation to the ranks of the posh has just given me a nosebleed...

Right, a slurp of port to wash down the Fortnum and Mason Gentleman's Relish. Now where was I?

Ah yes, you know you are posh when you are presented with a bowl of soup accompanied by a bread roll, and rather than cutting the roll lengthwise and buttering each side, you slice off some butter with a small wooden spatula and place it on your sideplate, then proceed to consume the roll by breaking off bite sized pieces.

I learnt this from my wife whose family were posh. Her father went to Gordonstoun whose most renowned alumnus is our current King.

After pouring your tea into a saucer you blow on it first instead of burning your mouth and swearing like a docker.
