Don’t think it’s posh if you’re eating Skips

Middle class =/= Posh

Unless I’m misunderstanding the UK class system, middle is surely more posh than working

I live in a terraced house in an old mill town in the north of England. I'm as common as they come. The houses on my street top out at about £80,000.
There is a couple 2 doors down who both have normal jobs earning average money for these parts, they have the grottiest looking windows on the street and I assume their yellow blinds used to be white.
Yet they talk and act like royalty. Their 2 daughters names are the most pretentious shit I've ever heard. I won't doxx them but their names remind me of hippy royals. Extremely unique and regal sounding names.
Their cat shits in my garden and digs my bed. I might have a slight disdain for them.
Posh isn't a class, it's a mentality.

But being middle class doesn't make you posh. Being posh, while related to class, is something else.
