How poncetastic are you?

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

Twice this weekend i have had TheLook frm friends implying that I have my foot on the slippery slope to wankfrippery.

Firstly, I was caught with my Sat Nav tuned to the dulcet tones of Jacques issuing directions en francais.

And secondly, I received the Raised Eyebrow when my BF spotted the candle bags placed beautifully outside my humble abode specifically to provide a warm welcome to ungrateful visitors.

Please comfort by sharing your worst affectations.

Yankee candles and Cath Kidston shite frippery

Candle-lit dinners with DH every evening. Yes, even after the baby was born half a year ago.

I love the word wankfrippery :)

Are Yankee candles poncey? I have loads a few.

That's not wankfrippery Umnitsa, that's bloody impressive

Blimey Umni, impressive squared methinks.

look just cos umnitsa hasn't paid her electricity bill doesn't make it impressive alright

i got raised eyebrows at Eat the other weekend when we went in for elevenses and my children (who happen to have fairly poncy names also) chose salads to eat.
I was

I am quite poncey I guess, but never thought about it until MN. I'll think of some examples.

not poncetastic enough evidently

I have wnaky twigs now. Thanks to the other thread.

oohh, i'm a right ponce

have lemon instead of vinegar with my fish and chips

have different glasses for red and white wine, and not just for when people are in

have a butter dish

[wishes there was a ponce emoticon]

Thank you! Candle-lit dinners have always been "our thing" although we both work rather long hours, so often end up eating around 11 pm. I thought it would stop with DD's birth (well, everyone told me it would!). Fortunately, she sleeps well, and we can carry on although DH cooks more often than me these days.

I have Cath Kidston matches. They were all I could afford.

God, I must be the queen of ponce so!
I love the candlebags
Hate yankee candles but have several Jo Malone ones
lots of cath kidston
i own an apron and a butter dish and I, too, have seperate glasses for red and white wine..
I collect 'nice' serving dishes and have a lovely, appropriate recepticle for any dish you can care to think of!

GlynisIsFixed - I thought that using red and white wine glasses and a butter dish (or two) was normal.

Maybe I'm not normal then!

Butter dishes? Ok maybe I am poncey.

Yankee Candles are a must. They are not poncey, they are a necessity. NOTHING is better than a Yankee Candle.

I drink my lambrini from the bottle

My friend came round on Friday and drank Lambrini from a pint glass. Pure class she is.

is Cath Kidston still not chav then? give it a month or two....

Butter dish - check.
Scented candles - Diptyque (part used, off eBay - ssh!)check
Cath Kidston tat - check
Candle bags - nope
Special wine glasses - nope

I reckon I am 80% wankfrippertastic

What is the difference between a red wine glass and a white wine glass? I'm baffled - and there was me thinking I had high ponce credentials.

yankee candles are def chav I can't stand them they smell cheap!

a red wine glass is bigger than a white wine glass, it has a larger bowl to let more air onto the surface of the wine. red wine breathes you see

[ponce ponce]

Red wine glasses are bigger than white
