.....( finish the sentence )

Separate from having tons of money. Conor McGregor & Kim Kardashian & many celebs would be classed as wealthy, but Posh ? you decide.

Many posh aristo's live in a tumbledown Grand Manor , and are seemingly penniless.

So, for starters.......

a. You get dressed for dinner

b. You wear the same raggedy old green coat ( for 50 years) to hike up and down Scottish mountains

c. Your language is peppered with Graeco-Roman mythology, a Sisyphean task for most people

d. your 'neighbours' live in a great house , 40 miles away.

e. you know what a 'stirrup cup' is , without needing to google it.

what others ?

You aspire to buy a house in a place where estate agents add the suffix village to the place you want to move to.

You own paintings of your ancestors.
You inherited your furniture.
You bark "What"? if you haven't heard someone.
The public pay to look round parts of your house.

Slightly off topic my wife went to waitrose for essentials (on way home) and the items on offer included oysters and quails eggs.

I like both.

We bought neither.

You wander casually into your local Bentley dealer wearing scruffy gardening togs to order your new car.

 


Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.
