	and baseball caps on backwards or sideways - how daft do they look ? the only times I can accept wearing a baseball cap on backwards, is either......... to prevent heatstroke to the back of the neck. or a welder using the peak to prevent sparks going onto his neckl other times, sideways (Looks like a dope with his tongue hanging out........or angled, is just plain daft!!

	He may have had gel on his hair and didn't want to come 'unstuck' :-D Anyone remember the time when men used to automatically remove their hats when entering a building and those who would tip their hats at passing funeral corteges? These days, some males seem to eat their meals wearing their beanies or wotever!!! :-S

Member Since: July 2008 Posts: 3,885 Send Message	I agree but it has left me wondering. Did he have hair and did not want to get it wet or was he bald? ??? I will keep an eye out for him :-D

Member Since: July 2008 Posts: 3,885 Send Message	On the short drive to the Post Office it started to rain, so I sat on the carpark until it stopped. A very posh looking car pulled up as I was getting out of my car. An extremely smart suited and booted Gent got out of his car wearing a neatly folded up Next carrier bag on his head. I couldn't suppress a smile when he tipped his "hat" as he walked away. :-D :-D :-D
