Day 138



At the time of writing, I am in an airport lounge awaiting the announcement of the gate I'll need to board a plane. The plane is going to fly me to Lithuania where I will spend a few days preparing for a wedding - a pretty important wedding actually; my wedding.
This is a tremendously exciting prospect that I feel has generated an appropriate level of anxiety and uncertainty -
Will everything go ok?
Will the weather hold out?
Will all of my THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE challenge fans mind that I'll be taking one day off from my non-interrupted T-shirt streak to be wed in more traditional attire?

What?
What!?
Of course they'll mind! What a preposterous notion!
The ceiling could cave in and the heavens could open, but under no circumstance can the THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE challenge be derailed by the small matter of a life-altering event.
Can it?

OK OK, so I haven't yet decided what's going to happen when my THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE challenge and my big day collide, but at least I've got the flight over there covered. I'm wearing this ominously designed article kindly donated by Richard of Cumbria-based Stitch And Print.
This is an amazing FOURTH donation from the Stitch And Print print shop and I have been saving it especially for today's no-going-back journey.

There's a somewhat subtle narrative running though the design printed on this tee which I believe I've managed to decipher. The starry-eyed, blissfully happy bride is oblivious to her newlywed's Earth shattering realisation that all his hard earned web design money will no longer be spent on Mini Eggs and DVDs and will instead fund purchases of a more 'shared' nature, such as houses and baby accessories. And apology flowers. Lots and lots of apology flowers.

THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE Project

Hi, I’m Andi Best and I’m a regular guy, rising to an irregular challenge.

People tell me I have a lot of T-shirts. These people are not wrong, it’s true, I do.

But one person went as far as to tell me I have so many T-shirts, I could probably wear a different one every day. This is obviously not true, but it got me thinking - what if I could wear a different T-shirt every day? What if I never wore the same T-shirt twice for an entire year?

Challenge accepted

I have created project THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE which, beginning January 1st 2013, will track my pro gress sourcing and wearing a different T-shirt every day for the next 365 days – and I’m going to need your help to do it…
