I giggled constantly through the whole thing... nodding my head the whole time, agreeing with Jilly's deliciously wicked insights. If you ever want to know about the English class system, this book is a must! OK... it might be a bit of a warped view and things may have changed a little since it was first written in 1979. But through hilarious characters like Harry Stow-Crat, Mr and Mrs Nouveau-Richards, Samantha and Gideon Upward, and Jen Teale and her husband Brian you get to see how British people never really lose that snobby persona for which they are so famous.
