In a land far away from Whitechapel

We could see the city change.

Flat Cap

June 12, 2011

My dad had a flat cap and I can remember his dad did to. Recently my partner bought me some and said ‘they suited me’; determined to be democratic he paraded a range of flat caps before me. Two caps were bought from Marks and Spencer, one a mixture of wool the the other cotton. The market caps were an innovative mix of black synthetic mesh and blue linen. Apparently I now have a cap for every season.
