OldGit Posted July 7, 2010 Author Posted July 7, 2010 Well I'm a big fan of their stuff and they had a big laugh at bassplayers in hats They are fans of the old guys: Andy Fraser, Jack the Bruce and the Ox They were greatly interested in Marcus and his Porkpie... Quote
6stringbassist Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 I've had loads of hats off these guys, they're excellent quality hats, and they provide unbeaten service. Quote
Happy Jack Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 Does it say anywhere how much that discount is? Quote

Somewhat ironic given your avatar characters' views on Des and his countrymen. Edited July 8, 2010 by OldGit Quote
Low End Bee Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 The avatar is because I met an old friend who I haven't seen for years recently. He noted my lack of barnet, glasses and grey 'tache combo and remarked "You look like Alf Garnet you old ****" Alf's political views aren't mine. The curmudgeonly aspect does ring true though. Quote
farmer61 Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 Head measuring taking place tomorrow, prior to Pork Pie hat order!!!!! Well done OG, top work Sir! Quote
KevB Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 Thought I'd missed out on a deal but then realised I'd actually paid 20% less for my hat than the equivalent one on the web site, plus I got to try it on before I bought it ^_^ Quote
thepurpleblob Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 Oooh. Temptation is upon me. I have a very large head unfortunately Quote

Dood Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 Simon,once again, you have been an absolute gent! That's awesome! - I'll have a wee snout myself! (That's not the name of a hat - or a wish for plastic surgery - I meant I'll go take a look.... lol lol lol) Quote

bassicinstinct Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 Bugger!! Bought two in the last few weeks. I'll just have to buy another now. It would be rude to miss the chance to save some money eh? Quote
KevB Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 [quote name='OldGit' post='889704' date='Jul 8 2010, 05:28 PM']Cool Where? and which one?[/quote] I bought one at Derbyshire country fair from some bloke's stall, his name is printed on the inside but I can't remember it. It's pretty much identical to this; [url="http://www.hatsandcaps.co.uk/Jaxon-Hats-Buffalo-Leather-Cowboy-Hat-P119998/"]http://www.hatsandcaps.co.uk/Jaxon-Hats-Bu...oy-Hat-P119998/[/url] except mine has two small breathing holes on each side for better ventilation (good for gigging!) and it was £32. I'm sure they are all knocked up in China anyway, could have got one even cheaper from here for example; [url="http://www.higgsleathers.co.uk/index.php?CATEGORY=9&SUB=3&gclid=CI28z8rl3qICFY8A4wodVinarw"]http://www.higgsleathers.co.uk/index.php?C...CFY8A4wodVinarw[/url] I prefer to try before I buy with hats so the country fair was a good compromise, and I was goaded into by the person I was with!
