Wallpaper Book Covers and Clarks Shoes – 10 Signs it’s Back to School Time

With the last Bank Holiday weekend of the summer now behind us, the Back to School countdown is officially on. While students might look upon this time of year with dread, the memories are a lot of fun to look back on. 

Customers of Irish book retailers Easons have been taking a trip down memory lane during recent days, voting on the top ten signs that it’s back to school time.

According to Easons fans you know it’s Back to School time when your mum:

1) Has the wallpaper waiting in the corner to cover your new school books
