Question What class do you consider yourself?

[Rob Noxious]

I was there 74-81 so our time there overlapped though our paths probably never crossed

Possibly did on those terracotta-tiled quadrangles which really echoed the sound of your 'blakeys'! :) I think my year were chiefly remembered for causing mayhem at that poxy Leaver's Supper thing they had back in '79. One of my mates put speed in The Boot's coffee, I was sick in The Grand's bogs after eating tulips from the tables at that air-hanger canteen they had and my last memory of The Boot was shouting at me when I was trying to uproot a tree outside the 'Hardon' Room. Happy days.

I thought I was moving towards middle class until I watched an episode of The Edible Garden with Alys Fowler and found myself wishing that the budget had been spent on Eastenders, Total Wipeout or the National Lottery draw.

I'm working class because I work, and i'm classy.

 

[pickledseal]

I think I am a safe bet as Middle Class, but does my elitist education enable me to push towards the Upper Middle Class ;)

So we will be all equal although some will be more equal than others?

No, about 3 years later. My love affair with pubs was well underway by then.

Do you mean alcoholic constipation? You can't pass a pub. :unsure:

In all fairness, most of the time the only people that mention class are those wishing to abolish it. How many people do you hear saying they're a certain class? Upper never, middle occasionally, working a lot.

There's a joke in there about Spingo, The Blue Anchor and bar stools, H. I hope to bring these elements all together by the time you hit Helston. :)

Looking forward to reacquainting myself with the Blue Anchor mate.

Me too mate, and just to keep this on topic, there's all classes of drinking folk there. :O

..and I refer you to an earlier post, work is the curse of the drinking classes. :)

Better tell Canvey the joke before the session as he won't remember anything after the Blue Anchor.:)
