Thought I'd stick this up

No.
You’re right.
That isn’t me.

This is not one of my THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE challenge T-shirts – but potentially, it could be. I came across The Mohawk Valley Trading Company online the other day and discovered that they are currently running a promotion involving free T-shirts (my favourite kind of T-shirts) and I thought I’d share the knowledge to my challenge fan base.
Until the 8th November, The Mohawk Valley Trading Company will be giving away a free T-shirt with every 32oz glass bottle of Maple Syrup that they sell. This is proper authentic maple syrup by the way, the kind that warms your bones.

Next to honey, maple syrup is the most popular natural sweetener in North America and its production predates European colonisation. Early Native American societies in Canada and the northeastern United States collected maple sap from v-shaped notches they carved into maple trees. The sap was then concentrated by close contact with hot stones eventually becoming suitable for syrup.
Obviously a lot about the process has been adapted by today’s modern technology, but the taste is just as great. I remember my trip to America at the start of this year and deciding to try pancakes with syrup for breakfast for the first time. That was not a decision I regret, let me tell you.

So get them while the going’s good – head over to The Mohawk Valley Trading Company info page and follow the instructions at the start of the article, not forgetting to quote the code below to get a free T-shirt with your order. Perhaps if you’re as sweet as the syrup is, you might ensure the T-shirt comes my way…?

PROMO CODE: 110113

Day 310

This here is a T-shirt designed and donated by Dan at Resurgence Tees called 90's Kid.
The concept speaks for itself and I've chosen to view it as a barometer for just how loyal I was to the British culture of the decade.

It turns out; very.

I was directly affected by or at least aware of almost every item making up the letterforms of this design, as I'm sure many of you were if you grew up in the 90's.

All the nostalgic classics are there. Friends. Sega. MP3. The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air. Pulp Fiction. A whole host of technologies and entertainment media that made the 90's memorable and an innovative platform from which the 00's could properly launch.

There are a couple of unusual inclusions among this luminous Resurgence Tees design I've got to say.
The Millennium Dome has snuck in despite being the national monument marking the start of the following decade. Also, on the right side of the 0 is the wording 'Black Holes'. Given that the 90's is but a freckle on the vast timeline of the Universe's existence, it seems unlikely that the black hole made its debut appearance alongside the launch of the first Spice Girls album, even though it felt like that to all of us at the time.

All day long, people have been pulling me to one side to study this design and relive their treasured memories through the acid-coloured typography. One notable observation they've all made is the criminal absence of CITV's Funhouse; the staple of every 90's child's TV viewing diet. There is no excuse for Pat Sharp's glorious mullet not having pride of place in this design.
However, multiple mentions of Sonic The Hedgehog more than make up for it for me.
