So, what are the conventions around using a tea-cosy as a hat? Dave, I know you'll have thoughts on this, but it's one thing wearing yours at a DJ Derek gig under cover of rum and darkness, and another altogether to choose the high street in broad daylight.
There's often a stage in between hot and cold where going commando (as they say at festivals) is not an option, particularly if you suffer from dreadful hat hair, as I do. In these times the spout/handle holes could be utilised as well placed ear vents. Maddy is only partway to demonstrating the look here, but personally, I admire the boldness in her lateral thinking, especially when it's crafted in the form of a wicker basket full of flowers.
What's the best thing you've ever reclaimed as head gear?

rules are, tea cosy must only be worn after a visit to the glitter fairy and/or rum wizard (iles) spout and handle holes can be used for ears if no hair available.
i was acutally wearing a small tree on my head last week, not through choice, i came off my bike and landed at the base of it. ouch
tea cosy better. x
I think Maddy is a little young for the rum wizard, but I know she's working on her job application as glitter fairy.
But ouch, apart from the obvious pain factor arboreal head gear sounds a little bit Lord of the Rings to me, hope you're feeling better. xxx
There are also festival rules that involve removing the pocket liners of your trousers for use in emergency loo situations but these would look at lot less cute if you wore them on your head....
thing is about that pocket thing B, I've never could work out what that man then did with all his loose change.
