Fashion: Back to school
Celebrate the spirit of preppiness with this nostalgic reissue from clothing brand Gant's vast archive: the Yale shirt dates back to the 1960s in design, when an Oxford-cloth button-down was the only thing to see and be seen in on campus. According to lore, the wearer would cut off the shirt's locker-loop (used for hanging it up) when he was spoken for, and sew it back on again when he ended up back on the market. Who knew? £75, gantuk.com

Lexpionage: Queurious, n.
The act of wondering in a loud fashion, followed by a march up and down the line, to discover just how long the queue is to get through airport immigration. Often accompanied by over-exaggerated sighs
