MANY YOUNG COUPLES IN THE UK CHANGE THEIR JOBS -
CARS - HOUSES ETC IN ORDER TO BE UPWARDLY
MOBILE TO KEEP PACE WITH THEIR PEERS !
THEY*RE AN UPWARDLY MOBILE COUPLE
Thats what they aspire to BEE
A better JOB ~ House fit for a SNOB
A posher CAR ~ like a JAG-UAR
A Private School ~ with a higher FEE !
THEY*RE AN UPWARDLY MOBILE COUPLE
Thats what they aspire to BEE
Securing their PLACE in the Human Race
HE wants to be in the MASONS
SHE just wants to be seen ~ on TV !
THEY*RE AN UPWARDLY MOBILE COUPLE
That what they aspire to BEE
So everyone knows ~ they shop at WAITEROSE
They ignore the PRICE ~ go for QUAL-ITY
Avoid being seen in ICELAND ~ and never go near AL-DI !
THEY*RE AN UPWARD MOBILE COUPLE
Thats what they aspire to BEE
A big CRUISE each year ~ to some Exotic Sphere
NO NHS ~ They go PRIVATE ~ NO STRESS
But they all love a PERK ~ if its FREE
Thanks for reading ~ please comment ~ ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡💙🧡
P.S. In no way is this POEM about US ! We have median paid
JOBS in the Public Sector ~ The NHS & Adult Education !

Oh I know. I married Kate Price (KP) on Halloween (what other day could I choose?). Not seen her since. Well, not for 99% of the time. Either on telly, or getting botox to look more like a (old) trout, etc! When Fido sees her, it puts him off his dinner! heehee.
HI UNCLE STEVE ~ Poor Old Katie ~ Shes happy with her 1% and She tells me she always insists on FIDO being locked in the SHED when she visits YOU ! Dont tell enyone but *sub judice* she tells me she regrets ever meeting BO TOX ! Thanks for your comment !
Blessings & Joy to You & KP & (DE)FIDO !
Love in Spirit BRIAN & ANGELA

We often shop in Aldi but we do use a Waitrose bag.
BON APRES MIDI UNCLE MIKE ! We all use the old Waiterose Bag ploy to impress the Neighbours ! I (BRIAN) when I go to LONDON @ Christmas I always take my supply of HARRODS BAGS so I can look POSH on the train back home to ESSEX ! Its not where one Shops ~ its where People think you shop that counts. Like YOU all we want is VALUE for our hard earned CRUST ! My MUM shops at ALDI & ICELAND ~ BUT ~ if shes expecting the *JONES* ~ for a MEAL ~ she always shops @ SAINSBURYS *Taste the Difference* !
Blessings to You & Yours
Love B & A 💙🧡💙🧡💙
Please check our (CON) FUSIONS !
I don't get the whole "keeping up with Joneses" philosophy of living. I just live within my means and I'm happy. Although a treat is nice every once and a great while.
HOLA CHRIS ! BRIAN aqui ~ gracias por tu commentario. i Es muy verdad el que Tu dices ! The BIBLE teaches us to *Be Content & Happy ~ with what we possess* and to *Count our Blessings ~ every DAY !* One of the Secrets of Happiness is *Living within ones Means*. Your JB as a NURSE gives you inner REWARDS a million times more than $$$$$$$ ! People who constantly strive to keep up with the JONES* are really trying to keep up with the World & its chameleon Fads & Fashions ! The BIBLE also warns about this ~ AMEN !
Blessings & Peace to YOU & Yours !
i Abrazos y Besos a TODOS !
Love BRIAN & ANGELA 💙🧡💙🧡💙
I live my life well within my means and the best things in life are free, love especially.
Thnksfor your comment Uncle ANDY. Good advice as dispensed my Mr Mikawber in David Copperfield. John - Paul - George & Ringo would endorse the Mantra *Cant buy me LOVE !*
Blessings & Peace to You & Joyce
Love ANGELA & BRIAN
