happy new year all you sharp minds
i'm thinning on top and really notice it in this cold weather, even when loafing about in my centrally heated (but a bit drafty) home
so recently i've taken to wearing a hat indoors as well as outdoors. it really makes a difference - with 20% of heat lost through the head, you can understand why
current model is a standard woollen beanie, designed for outdoors wear i would guess
does anyone know of any hats designed specifically for indoors use? the victorians must have had something i'm sure
serious answers and the inevitable ribaldry equally welcome

By:
thanks poker - i was sure i'd seen them wearing hats indoors in costume dramas, but had never taken the trouble to register what style
i guess i could pick one up at a theatrical costumier. think there's one in shaftesbury ave |

Why not give a home to a cat and train it to sleep on your head? The added benefit of you will look less stupid and chav-like than if you are male and wearing a hat indoors is an added bonus.

wouldn't say chavs, more the goody two shoes brigade

a heidi hat is a lovely option

postie - you ever tried wearing a hat indoors?
it seems to warm the whole body, even though it only covers the head i suppose it stops the heat just rising and percolating out the top, like putting a saucer over a cup of tea to keep it warm |

By:
my house is the same i favour a flying type helmet with furry linning pull the flaps down ...lovely jubbley

its what the swiss wear but is in fashion... a famous person who wears one would be badly drawn boy however i believe dappy out of the fine musical arrangement n dubz is renowned for wearing the odd one

i'm after something a little lighter though in similar vein i used to have a Red Army winter hat. too warm to wear indoors though; forehead in a lather within a few minutes |

topkat what we should really do mate is sort out the drafts in the house come to think of it i think i"ll make that 1 of my first jobs next time i have a few days off work
|
|
By:
poker that's awesome
except for the "snap it up for £100" bit... something like that is going to do the business though, that's for sure the kind of garment that raises one's IQ and creativity simply by the act of putting it on only worry is i may feel obliged to purchase a meerschaum pipe to accompany it |
|
By:
i stopped wearing my betfair hat once they started charging me for wearing it
|
|
By:
postie you're right
but fixing drafts is tricky and boring and wearing hats is easy and fun! |
|
By:
ok topkat you win lol i dont fancy hunting drafts down anyway
|
|

gresty they should pay you to wear it
sponsorship, innit? |
