You clearly know you are not, nor will you ever be anything even closely resembling a bonafide chav but that doesn't stop you from jumping on the bling bandwagon every now and then.

In Britain there are many words to describe people from this social group, and they are often limited to a particular town or region. Other words with a similar meaning to chav are townie, scally, ned and charver. The word chav has become common in southern England, and is generally thought to come from Chatham girls (Chatham is a town in Kent.) Some people think, however, that the word comes originally from the Romany word chavo (boy), which is also the origin of the Spanish word chaval.
You are the official chav-in-training, you know where you want to be but there are still a few obstacles to get through before you make it as a fully paid up member of chavdom. Keep on flying the Burberry flag, watch a few more episodes of Footballer's Wives and you'll be home and dry.
