Regarding the hat, I was at cropredy folk festival, and that sort of thing brings out the worst in me, hat-wise. I feel among my own people, as everyone dresses like they're inside a kalaedascope, whereas normally, it's just me. Don't you like the blue? Or is it the hat generally? It was one of the more subdued of the hats I bought there. Haven't worn any of them since. The world isn't ready!
I have no problem with the hat, honestly, it's just very bright! Every year we say we'll go to Cropredy (spend quite a lot of time over the border in western Northants) but have never made it yet. Must admit it's mainly the beer that tempts me ... I hope coloured hats, or hats at all, aren't compulsory
