All wonderful summer looking hats, Stefan. The Dalton is my pick though. What colour is it? Love the wide orange-brown bow.

Decisions, decisions, it gets tougher every week. Got to go with the last one, the Mossant for Lalieu.

And now, Mr. Connoisseur of fine hats, I have a little surprise. We don't get ladies showing us their hats these days, we used to but sadly not presently.

Previously I told you that we are at a festival, it's called Twinwood, that's because it's held at the former RAF WW2 airbase known as RAF Twinwood. Here a couple of photos showing you the main arena. Those guys on stage are The Jive Aces, known for there yellow outfits as much for their musical style.

There's a lot more to this festival, just Google it and be amazed.

So, ladies in hats. Last night in one of the dance halls come stage and theatre, we were being entertained by a rather good singer/performer. Tina was up enjoying herself, I saw the smile, she grabbed my hat and cane and did an impromptu routine, much to the amusement of both the entertainer and the audience. The picture is poor quality because she was dancing left and right of me.

Today she wore a vintage dress that she had made from an original 1937 pattern. Her frustration at trying to find a hat of similar vintage led her to have a go at making one. She had no pattern, just a photo, but with a little help from the lady who makes my hats, by email, she made a rather good effort I thought.
Here she is in our hired motor home showing off her handiwork. She hopes you will be kind.
