Whilst walking my lovely dog this morning I happened to espy three elderly chaps wearing flat caps. This got me thinking, when I was younger, men a few years older than me didn't generally wear caps so it's not a custom they have carried into old age, so do they suddenly wake up one morning and think "Right" it's time I started wearing a flat cap. Do we have any flat cap wearers on Wiki who can enlighten me?
I used to have a deer stalker hat to keep ears warm when fishing. My flat cap blew off whilst crossing a field in the fog. Tried 3 on before i found it. That was one of my dads jokes and he always wore a flat cap.
