We all know someone who can't stop mentioning their sourdough starter or their kid's tutor. Rank these markers of smug Britishness from mildly grating to absolutely unbearable.
Put the items in your preferred order.
The Aga in the kitchen
Nothing says 'we made it' like a cast-iron heat sink that costs more than a small car and dictates your entire kitchen layout. Bonus points if you mention it within five minutes of meeting someone.
The Waitrose shop
Casually leaving the bag for life on the kitchen counter so guests can see the green logo. Tesco would have done, but it wouldn't have said the same thing about you.
The second home in Cornwall
Owning a cottage that sits empty 10 months a year while locals can't afford rent β but don't worry, you tell everyone you're 'supporting the community'.
The private school fees
Sneaking the school name into conversation at every opportunity, then complaining about the fees as if anyone forced you to pay them.
The Boden wardrobe
A whole drawer of cheerful prints designed to signal you're fun but also definitely middle-class. Worn exclusively to farmers' markets and parents' evenings.
