Where you stand on the great social ladder of life can be pinpointed by which household items you own, an etiquette expert has claimed.
According to the self acclaimed "freshest and most trusted authority on etiquette and protocol" William Hanson, there are 16 key items that determine how middle class you are.
Collect them all and presumably someone will book you a first class ticket on the next train to Tunbridge Wells for a celebratory early brunch.
Top of the bunch is the smart TV.
According to Hanson's list, which was compiled with the help of home insurance provider Esure, 42% of all middle class households own a telly capable of connecting up to BBC iPlayer and Netflix .

Second on the list is a Dyson vacuum cleaner.
While the company's Brexiteer backing founder James inspired the liberal intelligentsia's wrath when he announced Dyson headquarters would be relocating from Wiltshire to Singapore, 38% of them still like his hoovers.

Following on is the barbecue - perhaps surprisingly only a part of 31% of middle class homes - followed by vinyl records (17%) and iMac computers (12%).
Next up are Nutribullets and Samsonite suitcases, the well respected blender and wheelie case brands an integral part of 11% and 10% of homes respectively.

As the movement to completely bathe all seven of the home counties in a warm hygge glow continues, 9% of middle class homes have done their bit and installed a wood burning stove.
Spiralizers (8%), Mulberry bags (5%), matching coasters (5%), boiling water taps (4%), hot tubs (4%), Aga cookers (4%), Smeg fridges (4%) and Brompton bikes (3%) finish off the list.
How did you score?
13-16
There is no denying you are extraordinarily middle class.
Undoubtedly you live a life of great charm and luxury, surrounded by other fine Land-Rover-owning, fee-paying-school-going, private-health-insurance-sporting people.
Well done.
5-12
Things are going well for you. An average day might be spent whizzing up an iced juice in your Nutribullet to enjoy with a plate of courgetti.
Things could be better of course, you listlessly think while staring out across your neighbour's slightly greener lawn, wondering how large their set of matching coasters is.
1-4
While no one is likely to pretend you're destitute, its unlikely you know someone who has a hot tub, let along owning one yourself.
Possibly your children go to a grammar or decent church school, but only because you moved into the right catchment area in the 1980s.
0
You are not middle class.
