i didn't think i'd get such a higher cultural score b/c i did some of the activities only sometimes - maybe it's just that (living in london helps) i've actually done all of them in the past year? can't remember exactly what the questions were and it won't let me back into the test to check.

62/100/100, a mixture of my own artsy friends + my husband's mostly blue-collar mates seems to be doing the social thing some favours, and being a mixture of artsy and also going to the football and playing bingo with my dad seems to make me culturally diverse, I guess.

Yeah, I think being urban rather than suburban, and living somewhere where actually going to the opera and the football is possible is going to help.

Dunno really, I don't go to either but I still got 70/100. Can only assume that's because I watch BBC1 AND Channel 5.

... and ITV 2. I don't read newspapers either.

That'd be a good poll –– British stereotypes of Americans vs American Stereotypes of Brits.

lol I don't know anyone who does any of those jobs, I know a teacher, that's it.

Ditto. This suggests that moving to Walthamstow = the end of social lives. I know lots of teachers, but I couldn't say yes to that because they're all current or former colleagues.

34/70/100.

If only I knew a noble :(

I'm really surprised I got 100/100 - my friend who visits a different gallery/interpretative mime show/world music happening etc etc each week would break the entire system. I ticked 'rarely' for a few of those on the basis of having done them once or twice a year (ie classical/going sportz).

I classed myself as 'middle middle' btw!
