Default The baseball cap of destiny!

A friend of ours, well known around these parts, left his scummy baseball cap in me car this week before embarking on a week long 'fishathon' darn sarf.

I wondered if his superior angling ability might rub off on me if I could only bring myself to wear said crusty garment...so I decided it would accompany me to the Eden tonight. Could Samson's hair give me supernatural strength?

Well I'm afraid to say that results were not encouraging; the evening was slow and although both Mr Trout and I tried the cap on, the only perceptible result was that we were both left with nasty sweat lines on our foreheads...and both looked like complete tools.

I'll stick to me flattie from now on.......

Were you expecting snow or have been tossed out of the house?
You appear to be wearing every item of clothing you own

This is Cumbria, not Spain, it was a hell of a cold wind Mark.
Anyway I am a delicate chap as you know, fragile almost.

And so you should be, I expect better from you Stu.
Mark needs no encouraging.
He has more fat on him than I.

Default Baseball cap of Density?

I was there at the moment of realisation Matt.

"How are you matey, good Journey down"?

"I've left my f**kin' hat in Matt's car"

"F**k, what you gonna do? I think my dad's got a spare one".

"Oh no, it alright, I've got these (3) others here, it's just that's me favourite".

"You've got four f**kin' hats"?

"Yeah, can't be too careful, but that's me favourite"

"Four hats"?

"Yeah, why"?

"But, four hats"?

"Yeah, well"

"Four hats then"?

"Yeah"

"O-K"

Rob "four hats" Denson ladies and gentlemen.
