Hat Weather

It's the first of September. Officially Autumn. Hat season. So let's celebrate with some high profile hattage...

Casual Co-op

The Overlook. That hat sought the world over from horror film fans to your above average dresser at Nottingham Forest. Anyway I've got one and it'll piss you off threefold -

1) Given the inflation busting prices on eBay I got this for mates rates (a score) via CC forum.

2) I've never seen The Shining.

3) I'll probably hardly wear it.

Anyway I've got one so hatters keep hating.

Next up not such a success story. Been after a grey sweat for a bit and when the chance came for a Lazyitis sweatshirt I was on it quicker than you could say Wimoweh. However the XL is still a bit snug so it's listed in the GoodNorthern shop. Fastest fingers first. Still worth posting about though on this Happy Monday...

And finally to complete the CC love in a bit pin badge love - even more so as This Thing of Ours a freebie from Mr Love himself Hess the Horse. To complete the rout the recently-pulled-due-to-a-potential-court-injunction-and-now-rarer-than-a-green-edger-on-a-Nick-Love-Generation-wannabe Dead Hard pin. The funny thing is I'm not, it says I am. Now that I've mentioned I'm not (even though it says I am), must be terribly post modern...

Bobble Hat Goalkeeper

Jens Martin Knudsen. Everyone used to laugh at the Faroe Islands keeper and his silly trademark bobble hat. No player had ever worn a bobble on the field of play before or since, but Jens persistently kept his on despite ridicule. Looking back though, Europe's whipping boys comedy custodian was just a bobble hat connoisseur, showing true oneupmanship in the face of the haters. And also Austria's front line in 1990.
