If you were middle class you'd view it in terms of education. If you were upper class you'd see it as a matter of breeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of an awkward sod who is neither one nor the other. Totally get what you mean. Working class Maternal Grandparents that were actually around, therefore closer with them, however a somewhat middleclass upbringing. Suffice to say I now live in Slateford, have a Labrador, wear a Barbour jacket, despise the Tories, cook our own meals from scratch (Very middle class, deserves a post of its own), drink red wine and Tennents of the same evening whilst watching Rugby then playing FIFA18 till 3am.
