mrs b, i hang around the inns of court... tel me what she looks like and i'll trip her up if i see her.....

Um let me see....

I only use clarins for my skincare routine.

I re-trained at a private college as a beauty therapist because I got bored of my job in the City one day! (I don't do either now!!)

I don't drink tea or coffee....just water.

I went to a private school in the middle east when I was a child.

Ponce factor.......7?

The fact that I drive an Astra and shop at Asda or Morrisons? Reduce that by 3.

So by my mathematical genius that makes me a 4!!

I had letters after my name before I did my A levels (LTCL - music diploma)
My coffee machine (Pavoni) is the same as the one on Ab FAb though I had mine first.
I only buy presents for teachers from Carluccio's or White Company.
The contents of our organic box are grown just across the field from our house.

I usually only fart when dh is out of the room or asleep

Class as I live and breathe, Greeny

I LOVE this thread
Am guilty of many items of ponciness that have already been mentioned.
now I live in NZ my ponciness has been enhanced beautifully.

I warm my cup before making tea.
I alway pronounce my 'th's
i call my mother 'mummy'
In our house we have fruit tea, normal instant, decaf tea, green tean and peppermint tea.
we always sit at the table for meals

I've had tea at The Ritz

I dont consider something proper choloate unless it is 70%

I know how to pronounce Moet et Chandon. and why.
I refuse to wear labels.
I had a wormery for Christmas from dh whilst his PA had a Gucci handbag.
I have a dh who booked two flights to come home from ski-ing in case the snow really is crap
I have a penchant for that truffle fed chorizo that's actually more expensive than gold (but loose a point for not being able to remember its name)
My children's names have an implicit reference to their Scottish ancestry.

I had a suite a the hilton hotel, park lane. my boss only got a room.!

and I have a Steinway.

Swedishmum... you've been had. You want to just jump over the fence at dead of night and scrump the bleedin' veg!

[Ellbell forfeits all ponce points]

My children are poncy. My son's (aged five)current favourite activity is translating English into French via Google language tools, my almost-two-year-old daughter (who owns three cashmere sweaters) said today, 'I don't want to go to my house. I want to eat cafe food' and they both clamour to be taken to Daisy & Tom's on the King's Road to watch the Peter and the Wolf puppet show, which sends them into ecstasies. My daughter also wears vintage Victorian dresses in summer.

I thought that too ellbell. just think of all those wasted food miles whilst it goes from field to wherever it gets packed and back to swedishmum's house, she's surely under an obligation to just help herself

Oh, and this is very, very poncy in a dull middle-class way, I had a proper punch and judy man for ds's birthday.

children being poncey brings us into a whole different league. I can remember the first time I heard of chorizo, it was 2000 and I was 30. and I thought the sandwich shop in question ought to make cler it was meat in its stew, for the sake of unwitting vegetarians. dd2 clamoured for it before she could even say it. it was her favourite pudding and she's shout for it from her waitrose trolley.

my 6 year old niece is a fabulous ponce too
when I asked her how often she and her sister went riding, she said 'oh every weekend that we're not in France or skiing'
love it

I buy clothes for them from Tulip & Nettle, which is uber-poncey. Knickerbockers and 'hero' shirts. I bought the latter, by the way.
I am poncily proud they love olives and feta cheese.

and then there was the time when I was being all middle class and poncey on the train, trying to see if dd could read any words from the newspaper. having very little luck (not that many headlines with "cat" or "dog" in) until I turned the page and dd's eyes lit up "I know what that says" she shouted with a huge excited grin. "it says WAITROSE"

chorizo? stew? I thought it was Spanish sausage?

MrsJ - that's wonderful!

yep. spanish stew. with chorizo in it. what will they think of next

oh I remember that story from before about Waitrose hatwoman - hilarious!

My children are not poncey.
