I can't wait to be banned from a shopping centre. I happen to be a member of a society of people interested in academic robes. When that particular news story broke, there was idle (and nonserious) talk of organising a visit to the shopping centre in question (Bluewater?), just to see what the management's reaction would be to twenty mostly harmless eccentrics turning up en masse and marching through the place wearing a variety of gowns and hoods.
Indeed. And those of us wearing bonnets can make best use of our camouflage by hiding in the upholstery and cushion section of the nearest department store.
