OUR QUIRKY OCCURRENCES







        So, in selecting what should have been our lace cloth for Speech Day, we
        had passionate campaigns, speeches and a voice note from Kordei Okai
        advocating for one cloth or the other. Here is one such impassioned verse;

        Friends, romans, countrymen, lend me your ears!
        I come to expound the virtues of Cloth C, not to bury it.
        Understand that clothes maketh a man,
        Or in this case, elegant women of prestige and purpose!
        So let it be with us, as we adorn ourselves with Cloth C;
        The only raiment exhibiting elegance and that touch of excellence fit for the
        180th anniversary.


        The noble Brutus (Kordei & co) hath told you that Cloth C is dizzying and
        ambitious, whichever way you turn it – down, across and diagonal.
        If it were so, it would be a grievous fault, and grievously would we have
        erred.

        But Brutus is an honourable fellow; so are they all, all honourable fellows.

        Cloth C is classy, chic, elegant and outstanding.
        But Brutus says it is ambitious and non-conforming because of the white
        colour.
        And Brutus is an honourable fellow.
        We thrice presented several cloth samples,
        And thrice did Cloth C stand out.
