so wer do we all get the gowns from then? cos we seem to hav 2 use dem alot!
You get your gowns when you arrive at your college on Sat 2nd/Sun 3rd. The way it was for us last year at Grey, we'd queue up for ages, get given our keys, various fresher stuff, get measured for gowns, get given a gown, pay for the said gown, and then fill out boring admin money stuff in a kind of human conveyor-belt style.
I think you can choose whether you want a new gown or a 2nd hand gown too.
If you're at a gown-wearing college then you have to wear your gowns to formals too, so you use them a fair bit. Castle have a formal twice a week or something mad like that.
Couple of points of information: wearing gowns isn't that bad and hild bede quite clearly isnt the best. That's why its stuck out in the middle of nowhere!

Middle of nowhere?! From someone who comes from a Hill college... ha! Sorry, we are clearly the bestest of the best .. ok, located slightly away from other colleges but only so you don't infect us with your lesser-being-ness. Of course gowns aren't bad per se, but I'd prefer to wear something else to a formal. Thank God I picked Hild Bede not Castle.
