Evening ladies and gents, I have recently found myself getting annoyed with my favourite Bonnet whilst wearing it and I have come to realise it is because the crown part is too large for my tastes as it hangs well over my right eye. This being the case I thought I would re-Jock it and see how it feels before I consider buying another bonnet.

Because I don’t have my own stream I used this cleverly positioned bucket

Notice the water has been coloured by having my bonnet in it all night.

I took it out wrung it out and stuck it on my head to shape


Wasn’t too happy with what I had so I stuck it back in the bucket of water again and went to bed.


Now having soaked it again all day while I slept I wrung the bonnet out again and carefully applied to my head


Being fairly happy with what I’ve got (I.E. I can see to the right when it’s on) I hung it up to dry while I m at work.

I’m going out on Saturday so I'll wear my newly re-jocked bonnet and see how it feels. This is what I’m going for I find my beret more comfortable to wear for because it doesn’t get in the way when I’m trying to see but my Bonnet is just too big for my tastes.
I think I will soon be having a quiet word with our Redshanks about the crown size of his Robert Mackie Balmorals and if they can make them to about the same size as my Beret or even if I can send him down my bonnet and see if I can end up with a quality Balmoral in the same sort of colour only with a smaller crown. And because I would like a place to put a cap badge too


That said when all else fails I have this which I’ve been wearing allot recently because of my dissatisfaction with my other hat.
