About The Author
Not Actual Size
At our purpose is to uncover, muse, debate and celebrate micro-aspects of the tastes and behaviours of the modern middle classes, across endless subjects from motoring to food and drink. We bring tips to soothe worries, give a heads-up on brands to watch, inspire talking points, identify trends, provide the inside track on stuff MCs need to know and, when necessary, settle questions of etiquette.
The Middle Class Handbook - devised by creative practice Not Actual Size - started life in 2009 as a blog dedicated to exploring the stuff modern British middle classes say, do, think and buy. Since then, it has grown into a vibrant hub for all things middle class, spawning published books, a buzzing online network, one-off events, flagrantly middle-class merchandise, and a specialist MC brand consultancy. And as it has grown, so has the range of contributors behind the daily blogs, ranging from teachers and estate agents,to farmers and IT support workers.Returns
