My Volvo is old and filthy, my dog smells and my children are 'spirited'.We have kedgeree for breakfast and none of our crockery matches.

We are 'double posh'Grin

Don't get many visitors though....

All the posh people might know it's port out starboard home, but all the educated people know that it isn't the true story of how the word was invented. I got a book wot tells me so.

I write posh, I sound fairly posh (with a bit of Sarf London sneaking in sometimes), I look and dress like a stout chav. People generally expect me to be a sylphlike 20-year-old when we speak on the telephone. In reality I'm more like the Anti-sylph.

InnocentRedhead · 26/01/2011 23:21

[whispers] It's my DP but no-one will ever know.

I'm tremendously posh but don't intend to divulge any more details to the rest of you guttersnipes. Consider yourselves lucky to share the same bandwidth.

wabbit · 27/01/2011 01:31

lurking ... too posh to post Wink

YeahBut · 27/01/2011 01:39

Well, Wabbit, I'm far to posh to post, so I'm having the under butler do it.

wabbit · 27/01/2011 01:50

You must check his copy! Wink

GotArt · 27/01/2011 02:14

I must be posh; I have a fruit bowl, (like I said before), salad forks and wine glasses for different types of wine. I would never let anyone draw my bath for me though cause it just would never be right but I guess that just teeters into anal retentiveness.

midlandsmumof4 · 27/01/2011 02:15

I'm north of Watford Gap (where ever that is Grin. I'm so very posh I have an indoor loo. Blush.

InnocentRedhead · 27/01/2011 02:19

GotArt - i'm still posher than you, you understand my chavvy speak that takes me 20 minutes to write [bwink]

And an indoor loo? Us North of the Midlands in Yorkshire have to make do with hut at bottom o' garden! I'm guessing house prices there are rocketing :)

pascoe28 · 27/01/2011 07:54

I'm posh and proud.

kreecherlivesupstairs · 27/01/2011 07:57

I am so posh I have two different rubbish bins in the kitchen, two disposable bic lighters and three ashtrays.

alphaO · 27/01/2011 08:11

Dont think this makes someone posh. Pointless OP. Sorry.

InnocentRedhead · 27/01/2011 08:15

I have cotton knitted covers with beads on them to ensure the flys don't land in our Pimms when out on ones terrace. But I live in Essex so I guess that cancels out that attempt at being posh then.

I am loving this thread. Grin

Serious question to all you posh and common people, why do some women not want to be known a ladies???? I'm assuming it's something similar to the posh and common debate hence asking here sorry if hijacking.

Why wouldn't you want to be a lady? doesn't mean you have to go around in a smart dress and stockings (unless you want to Wink)

Is being a lady seen as being posh? In which case i must be posh cause i think of myself as a lady.
