Posh
My dad's family are posh - there's at least one knight and an ex-lord mayor of london. My mum's family come from Staines.
How posh are you? Who's the poshest person you've met? Be proud and tell us your poshest moments.

rich and posh
not me, but my customers. I fix computers in Surrey. A lot of my customers are pretty loaded and live in nice shiny houses, polished BMWs etc in the drive. But they're not the posh ones. Oh no, the posh ones live in ramshackle piles with battered range rovers on the drive, packs of labradors roaming the house and generally own most of the village. Despite that they always have the most ancient steam-driven Pentium II machines with 32MB of memory which they're trying to run Windows XP on... Ah well, they never complain about the bill and they always need lots of work doing.
At least one Lord in there as well.
P.S. A pedant writes: "Posh" doesn't come from "Port Out Starboard Home", that's a common fallacy. No-one knows where it comes from really. Do a google to find out more...
