    Last voyage of Queen Elizabeth II.

    Sad to say that saltwater is a real killer.

    Tuesday afternoon in Boston

    I don't actually "yell." Perhaps my diction wasn't up to snuff. Most people can tell the intent of the compliment when the person saying so are, themselves, wearing a hat, no? Or is the sophistication and understanding we laud ourselves for here on TFL only applicable to message boards? Are...

    Karl, I often yell NICE HAT or GREAT HAT, when I see someone of distinction and taste.

    Are Hats Your Main Interest?

    Eating out, groceries and socializing with our friends, as well as doing things with the kids take up most of our money. Oh, school tuition for two eats a lot of income, and my older one, in seventh grade now, will be more than doubling our tuition bill in a year or so. Hats, well there are a...

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    Can't remember the last time I had a Hoyo de Monterrey. That was my first ever purchase, ten years ago. Famous Smoke Shop had a really good special on Hoyo de Monterrey Cristales, very roughly wrapped Lonsdales, came in a "cookie cannister" glass humi, with a little bitty pipe tobacco...

    Golden Age honeymoon destinations

    Many folks were too poor for honeymoons. My paternal grandparents took the train (my grandfather worked for the Louisville & Nashville) to Yellowstone from New Orleans in 1930. My maternal grandparents didn't go anywhere, I don't believe. They had to work (1926) Another friend's parents had...

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    Nothing since a Vegas Cubana on Friday night. I'm now sick with cold/flu-like symptoms...:mad:

    To me, that's an incredible turn of events.

    Differences in Akubra fedoras?

    Guys, thank you all so much. As I read the responses I began to think that down here, I would still be warm enough in an unlined felt hat, when it's actually cold. Most likely, with the ventilation holes, it won't be altogether uncomfortable the rest of the year. Good conversation and...

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    I'm hoping to have a smoke escorting our T or T phalanx at my in-laws' party. I have in my 3 finger case a Dea Churchill, Chateau Real corona and a Vegas Cubanas by Don Pepin Garcia. I just got the Vegas Cubanas this week in a bomb from an old friend on Cigar Weekly. He sent me a tenner of...

    Differences in Akubra fedoras?

    Thank you KY Gent. Tangent. Which models have liners? I'm really considering pulling the trigger on a hat or two, as I know that Akubra is about the best company out there for what I deem to be reasonably priced fur felt. I'm not like a lot of you who choose to spend what I'd call big...

    Differences in Akubra fedoras?

    I asked this on another thread, but since this thread is for noting differences, I ask again. What is Superfine? I know of Imperial and Heritage felts. Someone else answered it, but it needs to be in here, as well. Can we expand it out to Country hats, too? Or should we start a separate...

    Akubra Campdraft

    I think the 3 months wait disclaimer is, sometimes, just to cover their backside. I've heard, here before, that they often ship sooner than that but leave that to ensure they don't make delivery promises they can't keep.

    Akubra Value is Soaring Right Now

    I did a cursory search. I know that Heritage is a better quality felt than Imperial,right? What's Superfine? The Mexican is an intriguing hat, but it's in Superfine felt. Thanks.

    Akubra Value is Soaring Right Now

    I checked Everything Australian last night and this morning. Prices on some of their benchmark country hats are UNREAL. I think I've talked MrsRedPop4 into not complaining when I buy TWO. The Cattleman, and a few others are down to $60.14 US, the Squatter is $58.80. I think a Squatter in...
