SUPER SECONDS SALE:
Why it's in the sale: I ordered too many, then discontinued the design. On the right day, I would almost pay you to take this card.
Congrats on Your Desmond 2:2 Greeting Card - illustrated by Claire Senior
If you're not familiar with degree-grade rhyming slang, you're gonna be scratching your head at this one! But let me enlighten you: First = Damien Hirst, Geoff Hurst or Patty Hearst, 2:1 = Attila the Hun, Trevor Nunn or Don Juan, 2:2 is Desmond Tutu (this grade is also referred to as a Drinker's or Boozer's Degree!) and 3rd is Douglas Hurd, Thora Hird or Richard (after Kind Richard III). A third-class degree is also known as a Vorderman after Countdown's Carol Vorderman who got this degree award at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge! So, now you know!
