Reads "a bit PH private" thread and realises every other post is describing him.

[tvrforever]

Knows the colours & buys paint from Farrow & Ball

Has lighting & heating in the garden and patio areas

Has a kitchen that was design & commissioned by a boutique company

Has absolutely no idea of the monthly household bills or the costs of the grocery shopping

Has a vague idea of the cost of the kid's schooling, and knows the names of their additional private tutors

Has almost as many pairs of sunglasses as watches

Collects Lego Technics for the house's dedicated office / man-cave

Has at least one original artwork signed by the artist

At least one pair of Hunter wellingtons within the household

Has at least one bottle of Ruinart always in the wine-cooler chilled ready

Can't recall quite how many radiators his house has

Is wondering what he really wants to do for a living, but feels rather trapped by current role & success

(great thread and many of the posts certainly hit the nail on the head with me)

Can't decide which Petrus to drink tonight....

The '82 is drinking well.

Is that something that should be on the tip of one's tongue at all times?

Overpays the mortgage 'like crazy' so as to be mortgage free at 45. Hopes then to trade in the family hatchback for a proper sports car.

Lol so much of this is people I know

...and my word, don't they just like to rattle on about those over payments

[Funkycoldribena]

My threads back from the dead!
Anyway...

(Going by the shoe thread)-Has a shoe tree and all the creams to keep the Loakes in tiptop condition.
Thinks 500 quid is a bargain for a meal for 2.

Spends more on servicing their "timepiece" than most people spend on buying their watch...

[Snubs]

Finds Selfridges & Co too cheap and Harrods too full of riff-raff and tourists, so heads to Burlington Arcade for a more personal service. One cannot buy Crockett & Jones in Harrods anyway.

Gotta take advantage of that 10% a year offering. I mean what else can you do with the money right?

Glad to oblige.I think old threads should be resurrected occasionally, although it gets some flack sometimes.
I just did not like to see 'council' race away and get all the glory.

Talks about "pulling the trigger" on a hot hatch lease for months whilst waiting for the PH nod that his is a good deal. Then buys a 12 year old mx5 instead & declares leasing as people living beyond their means

I wore tweed jackets before the high street shops ruined it.... including a lovely Magee that I picked up for £20 at a charity shop (It was up for £10, but I felt bad)

'Over-pays in charity shops'.

Says something like 'it was more an upmarket charity shop'.

I've met so many of these kinds of idiots
