to start a Middle Class Cozee Corner Right Here?

[Hullygully]

Such a good idea.

I had a nightmare in Sainos yesterday, they had run out of organic Braeburns and my dc don't like Royal Gala.

(trufax).

Oh dear, Sainsbury's?

It rather serves you right for not going to Waitrose.

But I don't have a Waitrose nearby. Should I use Ocado?

I had friends (honest) who went into Tescos and said "What, no brioche?".

You think you have troubles. The nanny gave DD non-free range eggs, and then half an hour later, she (DD) called me 'Mam' instead of 'mummy'. Coincidence? I think not. Although she is 19 and might be going through a rebellious stage.

Well quite.

Their bakery goods are substandard.

Well if you are in residence. Otherwise just send the au pair.

Bigjoeent -

Yes, use ocado. I have been very dissapointed in the standard of leeks I buy in Sainsburys recently. They are all covered in mud all the way through. I don't want to have to rinse mud off my leeks with a colander after I have finely sliced them. Waitrose leeks are never covered in mud.

Oh dear, a lot of MC fail going on here.

It has to be local, fair trade, organic, farmers market, right?!

Personally, Daddy sends up the veg from one of our farms, but there is still the problem of the washing powder.

I would like to sign up. We did have some popcorn the other night but it was from M&S with chilli and dark choc so that's OK isn't it? However, I really don't like marmalade to have 'bits' in.

As long as he gets the farm hand to wash the mud off first Hully,you should be fine.

My gardener washes our veg before bringing it in for the cook to chop.

After the NIGHTMARE with the apples, I was then informed by dd's violin teacher that she can only take Grade 6 this year. I ask you.

well, one gets what one pays for Hullygully...

Sob...

I can't join. I am new money.

Can I watch?

I think voyeurism is a little declasse, Word, don't you? Hmmm?

Good lord, who told the neuveu riche everyone discuss the canapes until they get so confused by the Malossol they wander into the kitchen.

Ahem *nouveau

Funny. :)

If I promise to let you watch my very big telly can I stay?

...Knows proper middle class peeps secretly love a big telly, but can't buy one 'cos of the rules ...

I walked to Sainsbury's for their taste the difference almond thins this morning, they had none so I had to buy hobnobs

This has nothing to do with your thread but never mind...

Ooo I love those Almond Thins.

Hobnobs are for builders and dunking.

Telly is vulgar, Word.

Radio 4 please.

Word - some dreadfully common people in the eighbourhood own a television so large that I can stand at the end of the road on the way home from walking the dogs and get a better view than they do from their worryingly close sofa!
It is the biggest television I have ever seen, including John Lewis' electronics section. Massive it is! Sadly they only ever watch rubbish.

How big exactly is your television, if I can't watch it from the end of the road I don't want to know.

I was at the (v excl) gym on Friday - in the outside pool when I spotted three 'blokes' sitting by the pool, with TATTOOS, BEER GUTS and, (this is sickening) they were each reading a copy of 'The Sun' and slurping lager from plastic cups. I told the staff of course - I said: 'If I wanted to witness this I would go to Benidorm' They are letting anyone in....
