As a celebration of all things snobby I think I will spend the week refering to myself as "One". After all, One does have to keep up appearances, even when talking with those revolting Black Country peasants. I think One would enjoy a nice hot cup of Earl Grey just now.

I just hope we have coverage with some "plumb in the mouth" upper class British commentators and not local bogans.
Agree 100% Mark. I'll have the day off though

Actually they're pretty cheap as a good advertisment goes, and they bring in the tourists!

One does so enjoy the old jokes! I am so posh I no longer pass wind! Why put oneself out when one's butler can do it instead?
