I don't know if you do agree with Chris on this one, Clive. At least you've stuck to the subject, which, if I remember rightly, peering back through the mists etc., was the Bullingdon Club. Chris opens his fire on a far wider spectrum: "it's not chippiness we feel towards public school kids, but contempt."

That's a different kind of conversation altogether.

Good spot, James. Hoots, mon, but English class-consciousness can be mysterious and tiresome;
"one’s social aspirations" is also pretty tiresome, as is "a posh voice". But personally I think "She mings for Greater Manchester" is pretty funny; the rhythm, the alliteration, the rhyme, the allusion.
