    Berets, Anyone?

    (1) You could wear a VERY large beret with the headband well below your chin, concealing the virtual reality glasses you use to view your surroundings. This arrangement would also be good for robbing banks, or other activities where you might like to hide your face. :) Oh right... I see you...

    Berets, Anyone?

    Merci pour les paroles Philipe. That's the most French I've read in a while. I attended grades three, four and five, in a French school. Gascon then, means from Gascogne. Michael

    Berets, Anyone?

    Philipe, I like that beret too. Also curious about the significance of 'I am Gascon and I wear a beret' I figured if I kept an eye o_O on this thread that I'd find out. Oooh those M.B. berets look so very nice.:) Michael

    Berets, Anyone?

    Hector, truly no one is going to tell you you're wearing a silly hat, when you are carrying a machine gun. :) I dare say you could pull off wearing a traditional beret of your own choosing, outside the theatre of war. ;) It's as easy as finding one you like, plopping it on your head and...

    Berets, Anyone?

    Wow Alan, that's really something!:) I like it. How big is it? It took me a while to get used to my winter beret, a Chasseur Alpin at 33 cm, and that appears to be somewhat larger. Michael

    Berets, Anyone?

    Alan, yes quite good I'd say. Dark but not bleak, well acted, a bit melodramatic, beautifully shot and set/staged. I'm a sucker for magical realism, and I liked this movie very much. I would hope you enjoy it too. Michael

    Berets, Anyone?

    Me too Alan :) I've been interested in getting one since watching the movie 'The Devil and the Blacksmith' Michael P.S. your choice of words "might be a must have" made me chuckle. It's certainly a want in my case. ;)

    Berets, Anyone?

    In other beret news..... I am learning to knit, and researching beret manufacture, in order that I may make berets myself. I expect this project to take some time. My spinner and knitter friend informed me that making berets by hand was typically men's work, (something I've seen Daan say) and...

    Berets, Anyone?

    Hi Nico. Lookin' good. How big is that Diamonds sculpture, and how is it supported? Here I am, out walking the dog yesterday. It's getting much warmer now, and soon the first spring flowers, the crocuses, will be poking out of the half frozen ground. Michael Edited to say that I had a better...

    Berets, Anyone?

    Ahoy fellow boynaeroz! I ran across this thread a month or so ago reading what I could find about berets on the web. I just finished reading the entire thread, from the start. I'm a long time beret wearer, it's been my favourite hat for for nearly forty years. In the above picture (1985?) I'm...
