Town Not Gown? Gown Not Town?

So it's the 36th Cambridge beer festival this week, the oldest continuously running beer festival in the country and the second largest beer festival outside London. A festival of beards, tankards, cheese, pork pies, morris dancing and last but not least murky pints of old head stomper, badger botherer, stoat fancier and whatever other whimsical names have been attached to the alcoholic weapons of head destruction they have on offer this year.

Although I'm a lager man at heart I always like to head down for a spot of people watching, some quality cheese and and a few pints of worryingly strong continental "biers".

Every year the festival has an theme, this years is Town and Gown a subject close to our hearts at Cambridge T-Shirts. They have carrried this motif to the beer glasses.. The gown one shows the character drinking beer with a mortarboard, playing cricket and rugby, and with a spade. The locals one shows the mascot drinking beer. Is this a metaphor for student life? Who knows?

Anyway while we are on this subject it seems like an appropriate opportunity to recomend you abotu a couple of our choice local T-Shirts:
