With the weather being very windy and a bit damp this morning I decided to give my hat it's first outing of the season. The trouble is, my hair is so fine and getting thinner too so even the slightest breath of wind makes a mess of it and I don't like to use too much hairspray.
Now, I have never been a 'hat' person but I bought this one a long time ago before Emma moved to Norfolk. I called it my dog walking hat because it was perfect for the odd occasion when we took the dogs for a walk in the woods after lunch when I visited her on a Sunday. For years it has been in the cupboard and last year when we had the very cold weather I decided to get it out and wear it.
At first I was a bit reluctant but eventually I decided that I didn't really care what I looked like as long as I was warm and didn't have my hair blowing all over the place. I must admit that it didn't look too bad and so I wore it quite a lot last winter and will do so again. Now I am looking for a rain hat too because this one is made of a woolly kind of material and the style is a sort of bucket shape with a flat top. The problem is, my head is quite small because I have tried on hats in several shops and they have come down over my eyes and ears so that I couldn't see out and I can't remember where I bought this one. The answer is to try a child's hat but I don't know whether they make rain hats for children but Emma suggested that I try one of the outdoor clothing shops like Milletts.
I think maybe I will wait until Eden comes down in a couple of weeks because she will give me an honest opinion on my choice and will no doubt tell me how ridiculous I look too!
