    Re: How you had your School tie

    Hated them dangling, so as long as possible, so it tucked into trousers

      Cool. Hmm I liked my'n a CM or 2 long (but that left yards and yards of broad bit to tuck in). Still love the style now!

            If you had your School tie the "thin-way" and obviously you had to tuck the proper

            Part into your Shirt 9or if you was cool like me and tried to get away with wearing your Polo Shirt NOT Shirt0, which was the best button number to tuck the proper part of your tie into? As obviously you'd be "dissed" terrible for having the proper part "out" if you wore it the "thin-way"!!

              I often used to wear a Fred Pery or henri Lloyd Jumper instead of my School 1 or 'stead of my Blazer or over it ... well smart

                  If the new 1st Years ever dared to copy the Older Years .... in particular the 5th Year by having their Ties thin and the same length wooh bitied them, they'd sure get it peanutted OR even cut at my school dare I say!

                    Tracksuit Tops/Jackets

                    We would often wear them to School instead of Coat (though School hated them as "Coats"), they were some brilliant ones in the 80s/90s I thought! I recall vaugly having a gorgous 2-tone Green (bodering on Lime) Celtic one that i'd wear when out but not at School too often as the colours was too bright for what they constituted as "Coat Colours"!

                      Does anyone (if you had your Tie the "thin-way" remember "tampering" with your tie)? We did as our's was red and navy stripes and if you got a tie that was shorter (as you could buy longer and shorter ones) that ended in a certain stripe we did''nt like we'd tamper with it so the other colour stripe was showing. Or if you was daring enough you'd fold or WORSE cut the "v" off the end of the thin bit so the tie was straight at the bottom or if you dared'nt cut it you'd fold the "v" bit in!

                          I remember my brother had a light blue coat with some white & pink detailing stripes, my Mum said it was handy when picking us up from school as she could spot him in a crowd!

                              Who wore Trakkies UNDER School Trousers or a Footy Shirt under your Shirt

                              So at lunch you could get out of sight and play Footy etc and not have to wear your Uniform (in part's)!!?

                              If you was lucky you could leave lot's of Shirt buttons un-done for afternoon lessons and show your Footy Shirt off!!
