Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

My mate Tommy’s long head was a woeful disgrace
So I told him he needed a beard, just to round off his face
“No hair upon my chin shall I ever grow” he said with a frown
“Well grow it on your chops then, doesn’t have to be all the way down”
“You mean in a sort of Jimmy Edwards style?”
“Why not, it’s bound to improve the shape of your dial”

Indeed I can see why the shape of one’s head is so important to the person bearing that head for life, and in the course of that life more money is spent on the head than on any other part of the human body, especially the female head, what with hair do’s, cosmetics, face lifts, etc. one could be out the door financially succumbing to the needs of one’s head.
Hats have always been important in enhancing the human head, ever since the first cavewoman finished eating her Dodo bird and wondered what to do with the bones, why not stick them on your head? suggested her man. Thus began the creation of headwear, leading on to feathers, then furs, and the old wax ‘Fruit’ hats popular in the 20’s and 30’s.
No finer examples of ladies headwear can be seen like those at Royal Ascot in Summertime, I love all the hats almost as much as I love the Horses.
Men too started off wearing feathers on their heads, the bigger and brighter feathers to symbolise their place in the tribe, and where would the forces be today without their hat’s with the gold braid displaying ranks.
I can remember back in the 50’s when ALL men wore hats, you never heard them complaining of colds in the head back then, they also made the short man look that bit taller.
It’s a known fact in my game that if a woman with short stubby hands wears a ring with a long head it makes her hand look longer and more elegant, and a woman with long stringy fingers should wear rings with short round or square heads.

This is my favourite hat.
