Ruskin would turn in his phrase
Collectors of ante-Ruskiniana will be delighted with the new addition to the Grizedale Arts' Overthought range of products which has now hit the shelves of the Grizedale Arts on-line store. Modelled here by a suitable youth of mixed ethnicity (my eldest son George) in order to keep the funders chipper, the ruskin blue cap in 100% cotton is produced by local firm Coniston Corporate, hand embroidered (in a windowless breezeblock room because the LDNP Planning Authority won't allow windows for people who actually live and work here in case it offends the tourists) with the despoiled quote There is no life but wealth in Ruskin's favoured font colour of red.
A hit with our board members, make sure sure you get yours now - a snip at £12.00 + p&p, be the talk of the town at Bungalow8 or Loungelover or The Red Lion with yours. To order call or email at the usual.
Other product is the range include Giles Deacon farm clothing, heavy garden benches and Mutant Barrovian Dog Penguin Donkeys

Why would anyone want to put that on their head? And what sort of a man would humiliate their own son by making him wear it? Makes me shudder.

we should have got your advice on baseball caps, this one was the selection of Coniston Corporate, a corporate style that you might wear on a management training course (so sort of approriate in an upside down world) - do frieze ever do paintball weekends? Personally I hate baseball caps even on your head Jonathan, they make your hair stick out like a bush - although i do like that turning them round so you can really get in someone's face thing that baseball coaches do.

You should have gone bling and done a special edition New Era Cap. (they're like handbags for cool boys) http://www.neweracap.co.uk/ Straight peeked hats we're really geeky when I was a youngun' now it's all the rage.
