Hatless

I am quite comfortable out in public wearing pretty much any style of hat. But I do get a little self conscious wearing a hat indoors when it seems that manners suggest hat off rather than on. I asked and my wife encouraged me it would be the right thing to take it off for this photo opp with celebrated UK humorist Jon Culshaw. Hence a new photo for the hatless thread.

Seems the right call for the occasion. My question is what hat was waiting patiently for you back at your table?

Thank you Justin. I traveled to the UK with two caps and a beret. That night I wore this bold number from Keith LoBue made from a piece of mid-nineteenth century homespun coverlet cloth.

That's a lovely photo Alan, it's a real pleasure to see a couple so in tune with each other. Are you on a tour bus, a coach as we call them, it looks a bit too narrow to be a train carriage.

Talking of being in tune, and hatless, you might have seen this before, Tina and me having a little 'difference' about our dance steps.

Thank you... always enjoy seeing you and your bride’s adventures as well. We were on a train on the Chiltern line from Leamington to London.

Hatless and the worse for the vino. Enjoying fine dining on a cruise ship, later I remember making a total ass of myself when the shipped rolled on a high swell. I was showing off on the dance floor, the swell caused me to land on my backside, that continued into a back somersault, allowing me to stand up again. A big cheer erupted, I turned and bowed and as I did so, Tina kicked my ass.

We all need our Tinas.

I was organizing some pics that I sent to the icloud this past summer. I thought I would share what the mornings and evenings find me doing most days.

BTW: I am the bald fellow in the white shirt. My job is to spot the full twisting double flipping back dismount (full in DB) from the uneven bars. I start on the block, jump off the block and follow the athlete to the mat. It makes for exciting moments when the athletes are in the process of learning the skills.

Good evening folks, Eric -

Well, you may be short (I don't really know) and balding, but you look very strong and well-built, Eric.
