It’s hard to keep up with the hat at this stage.  Spotted last weekend in Edinburgh, checking out the Commonwealth pool.  It’ll probably get invited to the Games in Glasgow during the Summer.

The Hat adorns the Commonwealth Pool in Edinburgh.

The hat also appears to have mystical powers.  Here’s a shot of Gary Frost passing Charlies Bar in Lanzarote.  Apparently he’d never passed a pub on his holidays before he got a hat – or so Denis told me.

The white vs. yellow factions can get a bit heated at times.

My hat is nicer than your hat – Gary Frost and Anne Sheehy modelling both colours in Lanzarote.

Carmen Burns got in on the act on her holidays too.

We haven’t got Lanzarote temps but at over 11c in the water now and heading for 12c, we can’t complain.
