    It may be a cheap beater, but it still looks fantastic. I love the colours.

    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    @Hurricane Jack, @Short Balding Guy, I’m always amazed at your discipline with photo taking of your hats and drinks. I neglect to get pictures more often than not. But I always try to get a shot when I try something new or different. Yesterday’s beer was a Lithuanian “Hoptomist” rich lager. I...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Out for dinner after an early finish to work on Saturday. I went for my Panama, and Etsuko a Tula palm straw. Shopping on Sunday in my Akubra Capricorn. I’m in Team Shorts! Admittedly, it’s usually with straw, but I always wear my Akubra barbecue hat with shorts for summer barbecues.

    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    Barbecuing again. Chicken thighs and a bottle of Shiraz I picked up in Australia in February. My second time doing chicken thighs. They turned out great, but still room for improvement. The wine was excellent. The hat was the regular barbecue hat - Akubra Cattleman.

    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    Opened the Scarabus cask strength today. A bit much kick for Etsuko - she ended up adding some ice cubes, but I enjoyed it straight. I wasn’t wearing a hat, but earlier, I was reading outside in my Akubra Blue Mountains while sitting outside reading my book. Here it is with the Scarabus, and...

    Hang around. It won’t be too long before you can’t check the mailbox without a hat.

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Different people have their own varied opinions on feathers, but I think we should all be able to agree that that is truly repulsive! And they’ve done their best to further accentuate that repulsiveness with their method of attachment. Glad to see it looks great after a bit of work.

    What are you listening to?

    I had tickets to see him in London with my brother (who was living there) in the ‘90s, but there was a mix-up with the dates and the concert happened after I’d already flown back to New Zealand. It ended up going to a friend of my brother’s. Still bugs me to this day.

    We had visitors from Australia staying with us on Sunday night. I took Monday off also to spend time with these great friends. On Sunday, I went for my Silverbelly Campdraft Apologies to Stefan for failing to get yakitori pictures. On Monday, we went to a restaurant at a fish market. I got...

    The two songs above are probably my two favourite Skynyrd songs.

    Feeling rebellious. Red wine with fish. The hat was the regular BBQ Akubra Cattleman.

    As usual, I forgot about World Whisky Day. I did have a Buffalo Trace and a Classic Laddie, though, so I guess I celebrated it.

    Cracked open a bottle of Shiraz that I bought in Australia. Very nice. Etsuko made an excellent pasta to go with it. Today‘s hat was a Fed IV, but no pics.

    My niece gave us a bottle of Fuji-Sanroku as a thanks for putting her up and showi her around a bit recently. Today we cracked it open. It’s a pleasant enough drop. Probably not one we’d purchase for ourselves,, but we will certainly enjoy sipping it, and all the more since it came from a...

    I steamed a front pinch into my 1960s Akubra Stylemaster last night, and wore it today. I believe it originally had a front pinch (as do the modern Stylemasters), but the previous owner clearly held this hat by the crown pinch. The felt is so thin there, I wasn’t sure if it would hold the...

    Looks like you got yourself along to Uniqlo! The hat looks great. I’d love to expand my collection of Stetsons beyond the present one.
