Thanks in advance!

Ok, I'm from Canada so I'll Just say it. The only way to keep you head warm is with a touque eh!! A knitted wool one is best.

Keep your head warm? Just paste your clan badge on the front flap of a Mad Bomber hat and you're all set.
Seriously, I got one of the Highland Bonnets from Townsend and Son...not a real sophisticated bonnet and made out of almost a blanket wool...mighty warm though the ears are a bit exposed.

The Balmoral works real fine in the mild winter we have around here, I wore mine out this morning in the 40 degree F weather. The dogs and I really enjoyed the walk. My head, which suffers from a partial abscence of hair, stayed quite warm and comfortable.

If some of you who like me who was unsure what a tougue is find out here. Looks very familar. A rose is a rose by any other name.
