hats

[paddy]

Hi all
After sweating all weekend i have decided to try and source a hat to keep the sun off a little bit.
Any body got any suggestions ?
It probably ought to be machine washable as i tend to get in a bit of a mess!!

Thanks

this is a good topic, paddy, I think we all should put pics of our hats on here, some of them are shockers  :)
Ray got a cap from matalan and turns it around to stop his neck getting burned  ;D

I spent all yesterday afternoon in and out of the greenhouse and when i went in for a bath my face was streaked with sweat and dirt!!

You should of seen the colour of the bathwater though!!!!

don't worry, Ray regularly gets covered in stuff at the plot  ;D
trouble is, so do his clothes

Very pricey but has so far lasted about  eight years and is still in good condition...warning: the marketing is a bit over the top

Trouble is, I could never keep a hat for eight years without losing it!

I went to the locasl Army surplus store and got myself a bush/desert hat for £2.50.....works a treat.

They have chin straps, which might help  :D

Marks and sparks have an all weather hat, nice rim for keeping the sun off, water proof if you get caught out in a shower, washable. It also has something in the rim that protects you from dangerous rays. Handy if we get invaded from outer space. (OR COULD IT BE RAYS FROM WIGAN) ;D

On the few occasions I wear anything on my head it is a baseball cap (to stop the sun giving me a migraine) The writing is  RETIRED AND LOVING IT

John wears an Amish summer  hat very like that Manics!!

mine was attacked by our old dog before I took it to the plot, they all call it my scarecrow hat,I don't care, keeps the sun off  ;D

It is smashing, looks well loved, John's is actually very neat, like all Amish  summer hats but I like yours better, XX Jeannine
