I had a ST Hilda's college scarf. I wonder where that is, actually. I think my exhusband must have it.

I still wear my school jumper sometimes and I love it, althogh it needs a bit of a darn. MOTHBALLS.

The worst thing about those hoodies were the people that would talk at the lectures.

Almost every class. The hoodies were usually embarrassingly bad.

had one of my halls of residence

wasn't one of those ones with big writing though, just had a little badge on the front. it was free or at least cheap

No, and it does make you a wanker.

Wearing one from a university you didn't go to makes you a bigger wanker. Yes you, American tourists on the tube with Oxford hoodies. I know your game.

I've got me gear from the cricket club

Use the hoodies quite a bit. Usually wear one of the shirts when I go to the gym.

Wouldn't have bought any other uni merchandise though.

i was thinking of getting one before i left

to wear round the house and that, but they were like £30 so i didn't bother.

ok wait

I'm pretty sure i have a hockey hoodie, an OUWRFC 'sweatshirt', for want of a better word, and a couple of cricket sweaters. I do love my cricket sweaters becasue i am a massive wanker. (and i played cricket for my college)

I've got one that says the name of my undergrad uni on the front, but it's just house clothes

Awfully enough I do own a college tie AND cufflinks from my postgraduate Oxford college, but they were both gifts and neither have ever (will ever) be worn.

Absolutely no way

I remember at Christmas in the 1st year I went home and half the pub was full of gormless berks wearing their uni hoodies.

Nah they're shit

The really boring course specific ones are the most desperately embarrassing though. It's like, here mate, you spent £25 so everyone knows you did Computer Science at Teeside? Fuck offffffffffffffff.
