A few days ago we were out for the day in the Peak District where, in a local shop, I saw a flat cap and just thought I'd try it on. Marge assured me that it made me look (even more) handsome and so bought me it. It's waxed cotton and waterproof.
I thought, what the hell, after all it is traditional Yorkshire headgear for old men.

I don't know about you, but I've had a few funny looks.
Of course it was a hot, sunny day.
No it wasn't really.
I suppose they're not that common after all.
I don't care, though. It stops my ears going blue and dropping off.
