That's considerably posher than Ampleforth I think!) got very tiresome and were out of place in WDYTYA. It all spoilt what should have been an interesting story for me.
And he seemed to be complaining about an almost total lack of females at Marlborough, but they have had girls in the sixth form there for 50 years and have been fully co-ed for 30 years (Jack is 31.)
