    Closer - you're right about dance halls as the hat is part of the "costume". ((())) But at a regular pub/restaurant? No. The hat should come off.

    Sourced from Steel-eye span:

    My love she was fair, and my love she was kind
    And cruel the judge and jury that sentenced her away
    For thieving was a thing that she never was inclined to
    They sent my love across the sea ten thousand miles away.

    Chorus:
    All around my hat, I will wear the green willow,
    All around my hat for a year and a day
    And if anyone should question me the reason for my wearing it
    I'll tell them that my own true love is ten thousand miles away.

    2. I bought my love a golden ring to wear upon her finger
    A token of our own true love and to remember me
    And when she returns again, we never will be parted
    We'll marry and be happy for ever and a day.
    Chorus:

    3. Seven, seven long years my love and I are parted
    Seven, seven long years my love is bound to stay
    Seven long years I'll love my love and never be false-hearted
    And never sigh or sorrow while she's far, far away.
    Chorus:

    4. Some young men there are who are preciously deceitful,
    A-coaxin' of the fair young maids they mean to lead astray
    As soon as they deceive them, so cruelly they leave them
    I'll love my love forever though she's far, far away.

    Nostalgia isn't what it used to be....

    Andi!

    You have not been properly delegated as one of my "under-spankers". Don't you know you must have my permission to give out spankings here? Why, you haven't been properly trained my dear. Imagine if we let everyone run around just giving spankings randomly...what chaos.

    Random spankings? And the problem here is??? Seriously, you haven't been around much lately. Someone has to pick up the slack!!!

    Andi

    PS: If I want to be properly delegated what do I need to do? Do I get "knighted" or something with the paddle???

    Closer She's not the boss of me!

    Andi, to be properly delegated, you must answer one simple question.
    Do you own any leather clothing? If the answer is yes, then spank away sweetie.

    so many butts, so little time

    I hadn't heard the "wearing a hat is bad manners" but we live in the Manchester slums where people can't afford hats anyway.

    I know you should avoid anyone who wears a hat, especially a trilby, while they are driving as it indicates that they are at least 70, passed their test when there were only 3 other cars in britain (and a man walked in front waving a flag) and liable to crash at any second.
