I'd talk like I had a plum in my mouth if I was married to this too:

'what makes a person "posh"?'

find out here...

http://poshtest.com/

this was my result:

If you scored over 50%, then a peerage and seat at the House of Lords awaits you. You'll be off to dinner at David Cameron's escorted by your best mate Boris Johnson. In fact, you're too posh for this site already, so you should probably leave. If some of the questions left you scratching your head and wondering what's posh about that, you're already to far gone to know how posh you truly are.

You are 53% Posh!

Some of those questions... lol

I am 43% posh according to that.

In answer to the original question - I have no idea. I don't really understand posh myself.... confuse

It's not a word that I would use to describe someone. I'd maybe describe a nice car as posh or something like that... but not a person. I'd probably say well-off, well-mannered or well-spoken etc....

PERSONALLY, I think that there should be a question as such:

"Have you ever chopped off all your hair into a cliche Victoria Beckham bob?"

The answer would be yes. nod

well, true enough. as a Pom i feel it is my civic duty to say that the concept of a posh Australian is quite funny. you lot are barbarians, you can't manage an air of grace and decorum. smile

however, you're Swedish...

i guess in my senility i somehow got the impression that you and your fella had quite a bit of dosh.

the price of living down here is quite reasonable compared to Europe, for example putting 3 kids through primary school is currently less than AUS$1000 per year.

we do OK, happily middle class. But nothing fancy at my place - you'd be somewhat disappointed.

being extra picky or having a complaint about most & everything perhaps?

i don't know, but i know i get mocked over stuff like disliking seas, outdoors pools, feeling uncomfortable to walk barefoot on grass or a beach etc lol

i know those sound ridiculous, but I just can't seem to sit and relax unless it's somewhere that looks and smells sterile.
