I've done both in the past, so I must be a hooray Henrietta. O.K Yah! Hic.

You don't have to be middle class to have an awful taste in music.
The pimms - middle class is defined by how you served it?

Cold with lime, lemon and mint from the garden
Christ, we really are middle-class!

Apparently the Weller gigs are sh*te (apart from when Foxton turns up but don't think he's doing that at all the dates)
HTH.

Mint from the garden... yep, middle class. Cucumber in there would've put you upper middle.

From a musician mate who got a free ticket to Weller @ Albert Hall :-
"Back from gig - If I'd paid to go to that, I wouldn't have been happy. New songs are average at best, didn't do much old stuff - No Town Called Malice, Wildwood, You Do Something To Me, Going Underground. Too many pauses while the guitar players changed guitars virtually every song - that's just ****. Play the ****ing thing! Then, three 'intervals where the band left the stage for no apparent reason. Vague end to the gig, there was going to be a last encore, but the streams of people already leaving put them off, and the house lights came up.
The hight point - and it was a high point, was the appearance of Bruce Foxton on bass, for a few songs. First time they'd played together in 28 years. Audience went bonkers, the roof lifted off, and the energy level went up 300%. But sadly, once he'd done his bit, it slumped back into mediocrity."

Last time I saw Foxton was at an SLF gig, but he wasn't with them last time we saw them.
But the gig should be good, about 1000 people standing - with the bar only 10 yards away

Sounds more middle aged than middle class!
You can tell if your working class if you need to wash your hands before you pee rather than after

>You can tell if your working class if you need to wash your hands before you pee rather than after
That's a pretty good indicator I reckon! (although the "working class" guardianistas on here won't like it 
)

Everyone knows that the upper classes don't need to wash afterwards, as they don't pee on their hands!

...as they have someone employed to hold it for them.

I once read on here "Middle class aspirations with working class incomes"- that made me laugh and brought to mind a lot of people I know personally who use this website.
Sorry - carry on.Posted 1 year ago # -

Yes to Q12. No to all others, except -
Q8, no, I say tea. Dinner is what you have in the middle of the day.edit - Oh hang on. I like Hummus too, I was thinking of that white stuff that comes in squares, looks like half set Polyfilla.
Posted 1 year ago # -
It would appear that one is of middle class income but working class aspiration, 6/13.
Posted 1 year ago # -
2/13 - as I'm sat here with a glass of Prosecco (sweet and sickly) and eating pitta bread and Hummus.

cant stand paul weller but he has my vote for the best quote ever...

"Paul there are rumours you will be doing a duet with james blunt"
the reply..
"I'd rather eat my own sh*t"

Necking half a bottle (straight from the bottle) on the back seat of the bus on the way home form Bargin Booze.... posh?
Posted 1 year ago # -
Only the shopping at Waitrose for me! And that's more due to lack of local alternatives than anything else.
EDIT: Now 2/13 since I've subsequently googled prosecco.

The Mod Father once played in Keighley ,heartland of the middle classes !

Walking out of a Paul Wailer gig is what I did several years ago.
I'm definitely posh but on a low ( read very low) income. Just waiting for hubby to keep me in the way to which I'd like to become accustomed.

1/13 (the hummus)
Posted 1 year ago # -
5/13-ish. I drink certain speciality teas, like Oolong, I kiss certain female friends of close aquaintance on both cheeks, (others on the lips), I wear a Barbour Stockman when it's pishing down, I buy beer and spirits in Waitrose in Bath sometimes 'cos they've got a really good range, I like big sailing ships, and I have supper late in the evening after tea, dinner being around midday-ish. I is wot I is, having been brought up in a council house where frost patterns formed on my bedroom walls as well as the windows during the winter of '63.

1 (maybe 2) / 13

2/13. I'm not posh, apparently. But being called Tristan, I am fantastically middle class.
Posted 1 year ago # -
So you only need 3 on that list to be posh. BTW, anyone who uses that word isn't.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Oh crikey - I seem to have scored rather highly.
Is it more points or fewer if one makes ones own hummous? I think the shop bought ones are ghastly.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Add one on for use of "crikey"
Posted 1 year ago # -
it slumped back into mediocrity
No change there, then...
