A Barmaid and An Aristocrat

Today, I was talking to a friend who was going to be staying the night at our house when we were not there. I made a comment over the phone to her, in Phil's presence, that was rather crude. Too crude to repeat here for the more mature readers. I hung up. Phil was shaking his head, aghast. He said to me, "If we lived 300 years ago, you would be a barmaid and I would be an aristocrat." While this may be true, I know our friend would have been a collegue of mine 1705 and that every good aristocrat enjoys a barmaid every once in awhile.
