Well that was a damn good show so maybe it would be a good book!

Nuvolari,

Never change who you are. Your the last remnant of a dying race of old English gentlemen.

They don't make them like they used to LOL
 
I have no plan to change,amigo.  And even less to join that "dying" race just yet !
As for their not being made like they used to - well, that is half of the bloody problem, since being of that particular stamp, how can one expect a 30something German hausfrau to even begin to understand an Old School ex officer English gentleman, since even the memsahib occasionally fails to understand who she married !!
 
Never ever heard of one using those expressions. Never ever hear of one mentioning doing things free of charge. Never ever heard  of one associating cars and prices. Never heard of one making monetary insults.
 
One of my uncles was a High Commissioner in one of the Indian States. Never referred to his wife like that.
 
Seems more to me that these expressions are not real.
 
BTW yes I have served in the Armed Forces and it seems I have several years start on you.

I think you should stop whinging about hausfraus, labourers, and your poncy ladder, and move to some Mexican shanty. I hear they are very neighbourly and generous.
