I can assure you that not a bonnet was to be seen----not unusual at all. Now, had it it been raining and in midgie season that would have been another matter! Even then, I expect that you would not see a glengarry or flat tweed cap, you would see a few Balmorals, the girls might have worn a tam, but on the whole most people would have worn a "fore and aft"(imagine a deer stalker without the flaps).
