'... Woolf was a snob ...'
This is not the first time Tina has tuttutted Virginia.
Which puzzles me. For reasons that I can't now
quite place, I'd come to assume she was a fellow Brit.
And as we all know, snobbery - in much the same way
as honour, courage, integrity & humour - runs through
the English character as consistently as the word
BRIGHTON runs through a piece of sugar stick.
That subtle appreciation of the distinctions between
the classes is, after all, one of the facilities that sets us
just that little bit above the Americans.
It's true that the young have no class but a reluctance
to publish before thirty could just as easily identify
an insecure prole as a serenely confident toff.
