Paul. Think I come in both camps,,,as the windows in the west wing are boarded up,,,:-))))

That's interesting. People will always say that I sound posh when I speak. Though I wouldn't say I'm posh at all lol I'd put myself at 6 on the posh-o-meter lol :-)

I can be lol Annie

Hmmm, what's the criteria?? How many surnames you have, how many houses you own? Were you born into it, or did you make your own money? How much money you owe, or how much money you earn? Whether you eat lunch and dinner, or dinner and tea? What sort of accent you speak with? What TV programmes you watch?? Hard to tell really, it's probably down to how others see you. Ummmm, so that'll make me a 10 then!!!!! LOL Karen x

Yes, I ask the same what do you mean by posh? Looked it up in the dictionary, first explanation; elegant or stylishy luxurious. When my youngest was about 4yrs we were in Brisbane City for the day, (this is almost 30yrs ago) and she said to me, ' mummy when I grow up I don't want to be elegant, I want to be just like you. There were a lot of quite nicely dressed ladies around at the time. I took it as a compliment, (I think) lol. Cheers Jill

If you have a double barrelled surname, you gain a point. If you're a Smith, or a Jones. Then you're as common as muck. And LOSE a point. (No offence intended. lol)

I had a double barelled surname before I was married. It was Catherine Arnold-Brown So I get a point.lol. catherine xx

Hey you cheeky Monkey-I no relation to the Battersby Browns. Manchester is all. catherine xx

I'd give you half a point Catherine.... Brown... it reminds me of some other Macunians called Battersby Browns. lol

Paul. Am I in with a chance !!!,,,,,,,,,my grandma has double barrel name,?? Kay.

Sorry Kay, but no. lol

Hi Paul I consider myself poshiss? now I was born in a little terraced house with stone floors raggy clothes and little food over the years with the help of two wonderful parents i learnt a trade and was successful in my life to eventually own my own house in a nice district bring my family up in a good surroundings so I like to think i have come up in the world to about no 8 still dont talk posh not yet xxHowie

If your name is something like FitzHerbert, or FitzGerald, then you can be considered a bit posh. :-) Now, if you smoke, it can make you very posh, or very UNposh. Depending on what you smoke. Cigars, a defo + Things like 'Bensons', or 'Lamberts' or Superkings, then take a point away. If you smoke things like Solo's, then take 2 points away, cos that makes you a roughen! lol

Well Paul If your talking about your birth right and where you come from then I am definately under 4, my parents and grandparents are/were all true cockney's and have farming & Army backgrounds. But where my birth family have risen too and how successful my parents have become, I would say an 8. But we have all remained down to earth, throughout. It's only money afterall, and that especially doesn't buy you health and happiness. Which too me is the most important of all.

Paul. Well thats not fair,as I was always given to understand if you can claim a double barrel name,,,,then you are Posh,,,,,,now know why people laughed,,,,,,,,))))

Ah well then,Posh it has to be,,,,as get mine brought in from away and not common brand here,, POSH<

Dumpling My Man......light my cigarette...tis a Dunhill in a fag older......then serve my cucumber sandwiches and earl gray tea at midday prompt.....tell Jeeves to sort out the servants..them has been nickin the family silver hagain...just cant get decent staff these days..........

You've just lost points for calling it a 'Fag Holder'

**Drat** Back to me electricution lessons..........

Well I think I am posh about an 8 (knocked a point off for cheapie fags) but if you asked my friends they would probably say a 3 - always suffered with delusions of grandeur !! oh well *adjusts hairnet and puts teeth in* Kaz :o))))
