I've worked and traveled the length and breadth of the UK, that'll teach you a little more about life and the general use of language
If you want to marry a rich person and live in a posh stately home playing croquet and having afternoon tea you'd need to speak properly. I would assume you don't want that, so wouldn't need a finishing school. Just saying that there are 'correct' ways to pronounce things and when to use different words (a and an, was and were etc). I'm aware a lot of people won't use them in the 'correct' way, and won't care about it either lol, it's just something that irritates me (and presumably Piggy).
Anyway, soon we'll all only speak in emojis and abbreviations so it'll all be irrelevant...lol
