Pilot Hat?

Jamesie · Post by **Jamesie** » 30 Dec 2005, 16:43

Bit of a bizarre request this one - going to a fancy dress tomorrow night dressed as a pilot and have all the gear apart from a pilot's hat - something along the lines of the hat below.

Have tried the usual joke shops etc but struggling - anyone with any ideas of where to pick one up in Edinburgh please let me know!

Sure you could make one with a bit of yellow card, an old school blazer and some imagination

I have one of these:

You can borrow if you wish. I am the one in the blue shirt wearing the hat of course! Not quite what you are after but its the best my fancy dress box has!

Cool hat Ed, much better than the totally sophisticated one Jamesie had in mind. Hope you weren't drinking and flying

Btw has someone puked on the denim jacket beside you...air sick perhaps

Got sorted this morning up the Grassmarket but thanks anyway Ed!

Having recently borrowed a white tie for a gangster night and looking on in horror as a drunk woman fell over her husband spilling a whole glass of red over me, I am a little reluctant to borrow things

The guy at the bottom of the picture - was he DJing at the rugby club on Xmas Eve?

cringe. many years ago I was in a pub in Glasgow drinking red wine and this guy fell down the stairs on top of me - you've guessed the red wine went out my hand and all down this woman in a mint green suit - gawd it was awful. She surprisingly was fine about it

A man once puked a bottle of red wine right down the back of my trousers and all over my shoes. He also hit several other women and most of the dance floor

Vegas was a great night, as always Sandra! Our crowd only made it til around 4.15, and even then it was still going pretty strong. Quite a few pilots in attendance , but even still in terms of dancing I wasn't having to do much asking

Paced the drinking, and probably due to having to walk to Meadowbank for a taxi and getting loads of fresh air I'm not suffering too badly today at all!
