I recently went on a school trip with the school which I am volunteering and supplying at, when I had to dress as a gardener from the Victorian times. The whole trip focused on the students, teachers, and teaching assistants to dress as one of the jobs or roles that the day consisted of, such as; guest, butler, farm hand, kitchen maid, house maid, stable person, and gardener. I had actually participated in this trip when I was a student so it was fun and kind of weird doing it again, though this time as one of the adults! It was a fantastic day for everybody with great laughter, good work and an interesting day of knowledge too. And to make the students have a good giggle at the end, all the staff had to act like turkeys, oh how amusing it was!
Due to my job, my dress included as follows; cap, braces (suspenders for my Canadian friends), shirt, coat, sort of a scarf (to wipe ones brow), corduroy trousers, big socks and boots. Fortunately, the hat in the picture was swapped for a much better one that went well with the gear which was at the school.
So, this time in many years ahead, maybe I will be wearing this gear. Watch this space!
