    I also have a flat cap, acquired in Hawkshead, Cumbria.

    Funny, I was thinking just this morning as I stepped out of Blackfriars tube into pouring rain that all men should wear hats and a suitable, weather proof coat in the rain.

    Umbrellas are for women imo.

    Weather proof coat with a hood... sorted, and no chance of losing said hat.

    Apart from on a golf course I can't remember using an umbrella

    I have a Barbour and a tweed cap. I am basically waterproof.

    Just in terms of clarity and accuracy, are we talking about flat cap or baker boy style?

    One appeared in my kitchen a few weeks ago. I traced the previous night back and it was left in the pub by some **** who I'd been drinking with, I wore it all the way home! Haven't worn it since mind. :freecap:

    You've been watching too many Guy Ritchie movies, imo. NTTAWWFCs though.
