The Dictionary of Posh

Hidden within normal English is a separate language still spoken by those born with silver spoons in their mouths. Its called Posh. A word of English can be spelt the same but mean something completely different in Posh. If you say the word Mention in English, people will understand Remark upon; but in Posh this means a large house. Say Ace and speakers of Posh will think you are referring to a cold thing ones butler puts in a G&T. Hugh Kellett hilariously captures the spirit and nuances of those who speak Posh and, allied with Oliver Prestons brilliantly accurate cartoons, this book is the key to understanding and interpreting this language literally with tongue-in-cheek.
