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

[Lethargic]

2 - I can eat with a knife and fork and I can ski.

 

[Jolly Red Giant]

I wonder which Premier League footballer would score most highly? I'm guessing Patrick Bamford

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

The PL player from the poshest background is probably Hugo Lloris whose parents are very wealthy. The poshest English player of the PL era is definitely Frank Lampard.

Now - if you were to include managers in your list you would have quite a few posh b*stards on that list over the past 30 years - people like Benitez (whose family make a financial killing during the Franco dictatorship), Mourinho (similar financial killing during the Salazar dictatorship in Portugal).

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

I thought you had to be able to spell to go to Grammar School?

I have addressed this issue before
I suffer from dyslexia, and a grammar school in the 80s did not offer very good at help in this department.



I google everything now and copy and paste if I have time.

1--- i use fork and knife

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Just 2.5 for me – I have a Barbour jacket, but a) I don't wear it much and b) it's not old

24. You call the toilet 'the loo' - 14%

26. You wear an old Barbour jacket - 13%

34. You wear a gilet - 11%

James Ward-Prowse might be in with a shout.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Latin (a-level), loo, books and knowing how to use cutlery - 4

And I went to Oxford.

I'm not strict on use-by dates, but if that yoghurt is at the point where you can eat it with a knife and fork, I'd suggest that you bin it.

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

Only 1 for me although even then I might call the ‘loo’ the shithouse as well.

Lampard grew up wealthy but posh? Not really.

Didn't Gianluca Vialli grow up in a castle?

 

[Hotchilidog]

I like cricket and I have skied in the past although I would not say I ski. So definitely not posh

 

[Uh_huh_him]

I’m 3 too - and proud. Most of that to me is ‘are you a complete bellend?’ Questionnaire.

[The_Viper]

3 lmao

 

[stewart12]

I am most definitely not posh but I do love Cricket

 

[zefarelly]

Books, knife and fork, napkin, Loo, Latin @ Grammar school. own a Harris Tweed Jacket (and cravats) played croquet when younger, have shot. eat some game, inherited furniture. D-B surname, posted invites, although haven't had a party for some time.

theres a blend of old fashioned/proper and utter Guy Richie bellendery in thal list TBH.

Anyway, I'm upper working class darling ;-)

 

[PHCgull]

23. golly!

 

[Thunder Bolt]

5.

I would dispute number 24. I can remember being told off when I went to the Grammar school for asking where the toilet was. I was told it was the lavatory, and have heard posh types calling it the lavatory since.

PS I call it the loo, anyway.
