At school the uniform consisted of chinos, waistcoat,striped blazer and a straw boater which one would tip to a Master if passing him in the Quadrangle. I can't remember if monocles were obligatory or not but everyone wore one.

You wore a blazer with a waistcoat?

Mine was a royal blue jumper and calf length royal blue skirt with grey socks or tights. Absolutely hideous :eek: Can't wear blue to this day.

That's the part of the outfit you're questioning?

Cork seems to have the shortest skirts in Ireland (I know 'cus I wore one) apart from St Vincent's (the school that was in the news last year for condoms at the debs) which has these ridiculously long Handmaid's Tale yokes.

Slut on the slope or whore on the hill?

I don't know - the school just down the street from where you went to art college is where I went. I know it's definitely not whore on the hill anyway...

Ah, that gaff. Not the best uniform really.

Dudess

Yeah, very dull looking... Horrible drab green and then a grey blouse. At least no pinafore or long/pleated skirt malarky though...

I remember i was in 2nd year at school and we went to the young scientist exhibition in the RDS. There was some school from cork with a green top and the shortest skirt ever.
We were all like :eek:
Seen nothing like it in dublin.

I went to something like that in UL when I was in second year (P.E. awards or something) and it was the same thing. Our skirts stood out a mile. Bizarre that it's pretty much confined to Cork - what could it signify...? :pac:
I couldn't believe how long the other schools' skirts were.

And I don't think I've ever actually seen anyone from St. Vincents wearing the skirt since they took pity on them and introduced pants...

Oh yeah forgot that - the skirt was quite shortlived. It was monstrous!

Oh yeah, that's probably my school. Ahem...

Could be a few places - St Al's, Angela's, Aidan's, Ashton. Basically, anywhere that begins with an "A". One of those is my alma mater too. :pac:

Grey trousers,grey jumper,grey shirt and my school still churns out accountants like a conveyor belt.

Mine is made up of black, red and white. Not too bad. Better than my purple primary school uni.

Pres Secondary in Tuam have the nicest senior uniforms. Google it and you'll find it. Some school in Tubercurry in Sligo copied us though.

I go to college and all of the uniforms there are manky.

The green Salerno ones in Galway are fairly bad alright. Even the attempt to look cool in the O' Neills fails.

Oh I'd have loved a purple uniform.

Not purple purple.... But browny purple... If I were a woman I'd know what to call it.

Regina Mundi - suggest a pseudonym for it? Too easy - well the first bit anyway.

I don't know it myself - sounds hideous! The purple uniform I know is a proper rich purple and it's lovely.

This thread is bringing back bad memories of our school uniform:(.

We had to wear a short grey skirt, which we rolled the band of to make even shorter, white shirt, snot green v-neck jumper with yellow around the V, snot green and yellow striped tie and the piéce de résistance; a snot green blazer with yellow 'piping' round the edge. Luckily for us the school had only phased out the 'deckchair' blazer (green and yellow stripes) and straw boater hats a couple of years before I started there (early 90s).

It was a Catholic school in England, so we were regularly abused by kids from other schools. Used to get called Bible bashers and Bible thumpers all the time:rolleyes:, was so jealous of them in their plain navy or grey jumpers, and the lucky feckers didn't have to wear blazers either lol
