[News] Do you consider yourself Posh - How many ticks on the list ?

[elwheelio]

I had my butler take the test for me.

 

[PHCgull]

You will find very few posh kids playing football - they play more 'cultured' sports like polo and yachting.

what absolute tosh. Darling.

 

[HalfaSeatOn]

24. You call the toilet 'the loo'

This one but usually in the line ‘just going to skip to the loo me darling’ so rather fancy that doesn’t count for being posh

 

[raymondo]

Sorry, but I'm really far too posh to read 40 (!!) bloody statements and to add up my answers. I'll get one of the servants to do it later.

 

[Mackenzie]

Well I scored 11, but I have done quite a few of the other things I didn't tick in the past.

So 11+

 

[PTC Gull]

My man servant got me 9. Oik.

 

[The Clamp]

Us real posho’s know that list is positively common. The only real way to tell is whether the family speaks at the breakfast table or not. If you know, you know. It’s not about check-lists of activities. It’s about standards.

 

[Gwylan]

8 for me

I'm an oik but like rugby, cricket and know Latin, innit

 

[zefarelly]

I asked my Butler to answer the questions on my behalf and he said 0
Not believing him I asked the chef to do the same, still 0
My servant is running me a bath but when finished I'll get him to check.
My kids are at boarding school so cant ask them.
The cleaner is doing the silverware.
The wine chef is in the cellar.
Reminds me to move great granddads picture.
Letter from 'the club' about my overdue subs. Doesn't mention how much of course.
Daddy bought this mansion for me.
I have my coat of arms on all the saddles.
Gordon Ramsey sends out the invites for Supper Parties when we use the best silver knives and forks.
My darling wife is partakeing in a Biathlon.
But definitely not posh.

It's the Sommelier in the cellar darling,
quae inventa sunt!

 

[Official Old Man]

It's the Sommelier in the cellar darling,
quae inventa sunt!

No, it's the guy from Majestic.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Just 2 for me, thankfully, due to my shelves full of books and knowing how to use a knife and fork. I could have ticked the partridge and grouse one too, I suppose, but I don't eat either regularly. Also, I'm not sure if my silver ring counts as "having silver".

Wait, I've just looked again and noticed the napkin one and the loose leaf tea. I have a smattering of Latin too so it seems like I'm sliding towards the posh zone.

Five for me including the books, the knife and fork and eating game

Cricket was another though I am of the opinion that 20/20 has made it less posh by the day.

 

[Barrow Boy]

4 out of 20, I know my place.

 

[Goldstone1976]

I'm waiting to see where the median lies before posting.

 

[dazzer6666]

3 - loo, cricket and using a knife and fork.

 

[Fignon's Ponytail]

three

 

[Yes Chef]

Half the oiks down Littlehampton Golf Club wear gilets, and they're definitely not posh

 

[tinycowboy]

Six. Knew that my Latin O level would come in useful one day....

 

[METALMICKY]

Three! As suspected I am a peasant!

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Q: How do you know if someone went to Oxford?
A: They will tell you.

I don’t generally trumpet the fact. It just seems relevant, doncha know! Toddle pip.

 

[marcos3263]

You call the toilet 'the loo' Really ? Who doesn't ?

I call it the shitter so sadly I score very low.

Shame as I thought I was quite posh, or at least not rough.
