Sounds like that head net was a must! I’m not surprised you have never seen a cork hat, they seem confined to TV and fancy dress outfits.

Hah! No, I don’t have a chat with dangly corks and have never seen anyone wear one unless they were on tv, but I did buy a fly/mosquito head net a few years ago when a plague of little black flies were blown into Melbourne on the hot north wind!

Sounds like you are sensible 🙂 Do you have one of those hats with the corks dangling from it? Sorry to ask but it’s what comes to mind when I think of Australia and hats!

If you like hats, you can’t really go wrong with this book 😉 I quite like these niche, light-hearted history books, as I can’t really get into big histories.

Thanks – I do mention typos when I really notice them. I’m not sure that most readers would notice or mind too much, but it’s the kind of detail I pick up on. I have 3 hats, all very practical ones.

Too bad about the typos–that really knocks a book down a peg, I think. Hard to give a book as a gift when you know there are mistakes. I do love a hat, tough I don’t have many. Especially good in summer here in very sunny Maryland.

I don’t wear them as much as I used to, but I’ve got a few hidden away. 😀
