Sharing My World 15-09-2025
Here is my post for Share Your World, hosted by Di.
What colour was your school uniform (if you had one)?
There was no uniform at my Primary school (it’s more usual these days) so it was often shorts and sandals with a little leather satchel.
At Secondary school it was black shoes, grey trousers, grey or white shirt, branded grey jumper, school-colours tie and (optional) black branded blazer.
But why tell you when I can show you? Here I am! Presumably aged around 11 or 12.

When working, did you have to wear a uniform or dress colour code?
Nope. Only very occasionally when I was working a particular hall of residence at university and there was a big conference coming in, I had to be “smart”. And when I had my summer job at the county council’s computer department I had to do full shirt and tie. But since then, it’s trainers, jeans and t-shirt/jumper.
What is your favourite colour to wear?
Blue, black and grey.
What colour would you never wear unless there was no alternative?
Anything too bright.

So what order of Hogwarts is that emblem?

It’s the Secret Order of the Dolphin. It’s too secret to be openly recognised in the hierarchy…

So cute. You wore your suits and ties at an early age so you wouldn’t have to later on. Got it off your chest on time.

Thanks for joining in and sharing your world, as well as a school photo! Yay!!!
Grammar school’s compulsory colour was yellow (yuk) and we had to have a yellow summer dress. I had a second hand school blazer which I wore all day as I was usually cold in class, even in the Summer. Shoes were black or brown, lace ups or slip- ons, but in specific styles from Clarkes. The official school uniform could only be purchased from one store, Bon Marche, so was expensive and as I overlapped my sister (my first year, her last) I couldn’t have her hand me downs. My macintosh was three sizes too big so that i could grow into it, Mum insisted I had a pinafore dress (I was one of about 8 to wear one in my year) and my yellow frock was second hand and two sizes too small. Best days of my life??? No chance!
Have a good week!

Yellow’s an unusual colour for a school uniform!

We all had to have a yellow dress (not my colour anyway) and our PE shirts were also yellow, worn with grey flannelette shorts (which itched!)
