0 yes answers
You live in Mayfair and spend all your time at Harvey Nicks. All your friends are called Henry or Henrietta and you've never even heard of Top Shop. You don't drive as your chauffeur takes you everywhere. You live on a macrobiotic diet carefully prepared for you by Jamie Oliver. The only airlines you recognise are those that daddy owns. The only pikey you have ever come across is a stuffed one created by Damien Hurst and showing at the Tate Modern.
1-5 yes answers
You're generally far removed from pikey land, however, your brother once introduced you to a girl who lived on an estate and shattered your Illusions of Barratt Homes being a character from an Emily Bronte novel. You like expensive shops and generally only travel by London Taxi. Your mother once served you fish fingers, however you have adapated enough in adult life to only purchase Tesco's finest crab cakes as a substitute. You have the presence of mind to sneer at a bottle of Freixenet.
6-10 yes answers
You are definately entering the danger zone here. You have owned at sometime in your life a pet fish won from a funfair. You regularly buy Superdrug's own brand toiletries but ensure you carry them home in a Clinique carrier bag. You have a number of gold cards and a run a respectable enough car, however, you would do well to remove the "Baby on Board" sticker from the back. You enjoy good food and wine courtesy of Delia Smith's home cookery course and have been to University.
11-15 yes answers
You have a whiff of dog blanket about you and your shoes need to be resoled. You enjoy garden centres and eating out at country pubs. Your quite well known at the local KwikFit and think nothing of sticking a Bart Simpson doll to your rear seat window. You have often enjoyed a curry or kebab after a night down the pub and have used a doorway as a public toilet. It is likely that you have been arrested for a minor offence and count George Best as an idol. You are likely to have been educated to A Level standard.
16+ yes answers
There is no hope for you - you are well and truly an escapee from
Pikey Island. You will now forever be known as first name "pikey pikey do as ya likey" surname. You think that Blue Nun is a choice wine and always cook Spag Bol at dinner parties. None of your home cutlery matches and a few of your mugs have established chipping to the handles. Every room in your house is painted Magnolia and you have a dado rail in your living room. You name your children after pop or filmstars and buy the Sunday Sport as an informative newspaper. Your car is made by Ford and has *** burns in the driver seat. You've only been to Spain on holiday.

11 though I'd do worse if I included the things that my mum does and I hate. She still thinks eternal beau is great and buys that stuff.
The quiz is a little ufair to northerners though as some of the things listed (eg calling pudding "afters") are pretty standard up here.
