I suppose he used the term millinery in favour of alliteration, but no doubt generations of Luton and London hatters we’re turning in their graves at such a sacrilege.

daggers Posted 19 May , 2020 Share Posted 19 May , 2020 (edited) Headgear would sound more appropriate. Added: well done, Taff for resisting any Tommy Cooper impressions. D Edited 19 May , 2020 by daggers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D headgear or Head dress? Good presentation by Taff and just at the right level for those with some knowledge and those without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark holden Posted 19 May , 2020 Share Posted 19 May , 2020 I hope the dealer community see Taff's video it might stop the constant reference to 'Trench Caps' in their listings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frogsmile, I can't speak for the London hatters but I can assure you those old Luton ones won't be spinning in their graves, they'll be too busy holding on to all that money they took with them. As my parents, who migrated from Sunderland to the Luton area in the 1930s, used to say, "You can always tell a Lutonian because they are that tight that when they walk their arses squeak". I understand what they meant because I married one and believe me that woman knows how to grip a wad!!!. Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
