Ask a question, get an answer
I have the thread, needle and correct ribbon to handsew an edge on one of my hats. I also have pages of help files from the internet on this. My question is: what type of stitch should I be using please? -
Any reason to buy a new hat?
I guess we need to know who made it clear to him and why. It's certainly not clear to me. -
any health/exercise aficionados out there?
I have spent my life training and now also go to Pilates once a week with my wife. It is great for inner strength but hard on us blokes who aren't naturally as flexible as the ladies. Inner strength is important and many (if not most) go for looking good rather than being it and having...- Hereward

The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard
I believe he said that to Nancy Astor. The song 'The D-Day Dodgers' addresses her appalling views too. -

Hello From England
Hello Melanie and welcome from the other end of our small but well-formed island. Well, I live in the Smoke now but hail from a small village somewhat west of Portsmouth, and you can't get much more south than that.

Dr. Who?
Literally speaking a doctor is someone who teaches a doctrine. Meaning a PhD in, for example, languages normally makes you more of a doctor than a medical doctor is. In the UK he won't have a PhD usually but the equivalent of two BAs. I have heard it said that calling a medical person 'doctor'... -
A "New" Kind of Hat...
Methinks the former - one weave short of a Panama. -
What are the stereotypes associated with different hats?
A hat alone is not enough to judge I think. Add the wearer and his togs and you might be able to hazard a guess. However, many hat people fail to tick any of the usual boxes, and therein would lie the problem. -

Akubra hemp braids
I can't see that the Capricorn looks cheap and it's certainly not hotter than most straws I've tried. -
The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard
I can only see a blank white square. -
The 'loose' look.

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
What a hat! The ribbon is just right for me, now that I've gradually increased the width I favour. -
Public Enemies hat in exhibition?
Johnny Depp gave away the hat http://www.list.co.uk/article/9295-johnny-depps-hat-gift/. Incidentally, I always call him Johnny the Depp when talking to my wife. She's Austrian born and depp in their dialect means something like doofus in American English. No doubt they found it hilarious...
