WHY IT PAYS TO BE POSH

Derived from the seafaring expression “port outward, starboard home”, and originally used to describe preferentially located ship’s cabins, Janet’s bicycle – purchased as a kit* from Woolworth for £69 in 2008 before the store closed down - was yesterday implicated as POSH by a nerdy-looking male cyclist (or was he referring to her !)

* Janet’s  ”Universal Mystique” was subsquently assembled at Lewis’s Worcester cycle shop.
