Now I’m confused, all my strides, save for a pair of old button fly 501s, which I can still manage to get into, have a zip fly, and I’m about as council as Jacob Rees-Mogg.
Does having been a Black Cab driver mean that I’m more likely to be council?
I was born in a council house, and I’ve lived in a couple when I was relatively poor, but within 18 months of getting my green badge, I bought my first house, later I upgraded, and I’ve never had a trampoline or a sofa or washing line in any of my front or back yards.

Calling your gardens 'yards' = council with pretensions.

[Poppiecock]

Surely a cab driver is about as council as you can get?

I have a trampoline in my garden for the children. They love it. I hate the look of it, but why would I deprive them of fun ? It's tucked out of the way down by the allotment.

I have a rotary clothes dryer too. Nothing wrong with hanging clothes out to dry.

its the fools who use tumble dryers, venting into their houses on a day like today, or dry clothes on rads/storage heaters, filling their houses with damp.

to pretend either are council is ridiculous.

About as council as calling your house your 'yard' or technically the councils yard ?

I agree on the trampoline and drying of clothes. Of course, it all depends on the brand of said items

BMW X5 in primer grey = Council (Bonus council points for the cheapest version of a cherished plate)

ETA: Even more points for the Alpina badge.

Keep trying, but you’ll have to do way better than that, but
wait, perhaps you were you thinking of minicab drivers?
They never had my seal of approval, but I don’t care now.

I think you'd need to wear trousers of some kind too.

Also, add jacuzzis in small semi-detatched house back gardens in Scotland.
