Graduation
This morning I graduated. I am really glad that the hotter weather of earlier in the week had relented, making the wearing of a suit and robes much more bearable.
The combination of a surname starting with a letter early in the alphabet and my degree meant that I was the first person to be presented for a degree today. There was a small amount of pressure to start the proceedings off correctly.
I’m fascinated re: your outfit. Is that a flat cap on your head? And the robes? Do you still have them? Is that a full hood hanging down your back? Hmmm….
If is a flat cap on my head. The robes were hired – they are far too expensive to buy for the limited use they would get. Yes, it is a full hood – in the same red and cream colours as the robes.
