I gots me a new hat!

...and it's got scary potential.

I walked across the field toward the royal pavilion while wearing the hat. I was noticed. It was cheap entertainment.



Oh, and the queen said those dangerous words "pointy cap of maintenance". I remarked that I did have some ermine pelts and tails (given to me by Rowan herself) and mused on the question of whether I have enough of them or not. Twelfth Night, here I come!

Oh that's a magnificent hat! It'll make you real popular in a couple of months :)

you look like a very large gnome.

Well, duh! That's the entire point. :)

A red hat? Of course you were noticed, and not just for the choice to wear red with orange... ;>

Ummm, another cap of maintenance - if you're willing, my needle is at your service.

Brilliant, boss-pity I had other obligations... :-(

I'm glad I wasn't the only person who had a mad desire to pop a wheelbarrow into your hands...

It's the traveling gnome! Either that or Santa....

Lovely hat.

Dude,

One of my garden gnomes was just in here.....and he says he wants his hat back.

Just sayin.

You can creep back here under cover of darkness and give him his hat back. No questions asked.

He is the one sitting on the Magic Mushrooms and he is smoking a pipe. Look for the foxgloxe spires.

Also I know it is tempting....but try to refrain from consuming the Magic Mushrooms or smoking that pipe with him. He offers every one a hit....I discourage it but he is a grown gnome and what he does in the front bed is his business.

"Never roam alone" is the first thing that popped into my mind.

Much amused by your foray into gnome-dom :)

Hee hee hee hee... love it. :)

This is what happens when gnomes get into the Ent-water.

That's a fantastic hat! Can't wait to see the "of maintenance" version.

BTW, are you like the only Pelican on the face of the earth that wears a cap of maintenance?

I think there a few in the east who made ballcaps that say "SCA Maintenance department"

thank you :)

No. Evan da Collaureo wears a cap of an Italian style fairly regularly. A number of Atlantian Pelicans were given caps at their elevation, but few wear them.

I've seen a few caps in the East Kingdom, frequently under baronial coronets.

It is relatively uncommon, however.
